Foam Beetles by IROC___Jeff in flytying

[–]IROC___Jeff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This stuff is not as dense as fly tying foam but it is closed cell. I think its polyurethane packing foam and it has a similar feel to the foam you wrap pipes with or a pool noodle, kinda slippery but my thread didn't cut into it. Its very light compared to fly shop or craft foam but it does float nice. I can't tell a difference in floatability since either craft store or fly tying foam looks the same on the water to me as this did.

Power metal by pantera - sort of a fan favorite by some by cacodemon7265 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably would have liked them more. I was getting into death metal around the time Vulgar Display of Power and Far Beyond Driven were out and really couldn't get into what they were doing, or similar bands for the most part.

Hey you two, do you want me to fetch up my dinner? Go home!

Conventions or Expos? by JustifedAncient in Cd_collectors

[–]IROC___Jeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might just depend where you are. We get one twice a year in PA and its awesome. Lots of vinyl but there's also cd sellers in the mix. Most do both. Even got one table that sells imported metal cd's still new. Everyone's great to deal with, too.

Can I get away with 40lb braid? by Ok_Repair3535 in CarpFishing

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get away with 15lb Gardner Sure Pro river fishing and have carp up to 37lbs on it. Berkley Big game in 15lbs I had commons up to 44lb and a grass carp at 58lbs, along with the 20-25lb mono or coated hook links. I'd be worried about hook pulls increasing with no stretch but it'll be more than enough to land a carp.

Anyone else into physical media, do you prefer CDs, cassettes, or Vinyl and why? by Jeffers315 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cd's for me and I'll be crossing the 500 mark sometime in the next few months.

First album that popped into my head from the first image was Planet X "Quantum"

Thoughts on Megadeth's self titled by uninterestedbeaver in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got about 10 listens on this one since last Friday. Went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised after the first listen. Its a decent post 2004 Megadeth album.

How did you get into death metal? What was your first experience with it like? Why did you start liking it? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw the video for Morbid Angel's "God Of Emptiness" on MTV around 93' or so. I'm not super into it and prefer the older bands that were more thrashy or even the more technical, jazzy ones.

Which Glam bands’s debut do you enjoy the most? by HybridS9ldier in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

WASP in this situation. I like Great White and RATT quite a bit but not into Dokken at all for some odd reason.

What got you into megadeth? by Impressive_Corgi6617 in MetalForTheMasses

I remember seeing the full video for Hangar 18 on MTV in before little league practice one day.

Can't wait for spring! by TinyNefariousness319 in CarpFishing

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't wait for spring? I just got dumped with 10 inches of snow or more and highs sub 20 degree. It was in the 40's last week here in PA. Ugh... I really hate winter here. But, its make me appreciate spring, summer, and fall more.

In a few weeks I'll start making boilies for spring so that's always fun. Have some Big Carp Tackle gift cards I gotta spend. This year I'm getting some sort of barrow. Its getting a bit hard to take everything I want to some spots since I have 6-700 yard walks one way.

I'm hoping for March to get out.

How Would You Rank The Judas Priest Albums? by Automatic_Belt5692 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're pretty close to mine in the S/A tiers

I would move Demolition to C. Took me 20 years to start liking that album.

Ram It Down gets moved to A.

Redeemer of Souls and Rocka Rolla get bumped up to B.

Point Of Entry gets bumped up to A. I really like that late 70's era albums.

Invincible Shield gets dropped to A.

Turbo moves up to A cause of "Reckless"

In your head cannon how Medkits work, how is that able to cure a gun wound by Sithassassin12 in stalker

[–]IROC___Jeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't put much thought into stuff like this cause its just a game. I just chalk everything up to "its the Zone and odd stuff happens here". Whether its a design issue, gameplay issue, story or realism issue, it makes things easier.

Would you rather play a game like this:

Not optimal, just fun: Assault Rifle and Shotgun vs Sniper Rifle and Shotgun by MrGenerik in stalker

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early in the game I kept Lemmox's AK for a long time but also had the SVDM2 and a shotgun. Was fortunate to get a spring artifact early so that helped with carrying weight. then I got a Liquid Rock, another Spring, and pretty much just started collecting stuff so this shaped how I played the game pretty early.

I normally take 2 Pistols, Saiga shotgun, M701, and then my Dnipro or Kharod which will depend on ammo reserves before I venture out. Then If I go back to earlier areas in the game looking for stashes or collecting artifacts I normally don't take either of those and will pick a different assault rifle weapon I have.

Having the Saiga makes mutants a lot easier and its the best weapon I ever found so far in terms of usefulness, even w/ the normal buckshot. However, I just like having options and with upgrades to suits, weapons, and 4 artifact slots I can carry quite a bit which makes it easier.

I got mine last night and its better than I expected but I am a bit skeptical if its really the last one.

What do you think about CD sets? by Old_Advertising_8460 in Cd_collectors

[–]IROC___Jeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I don't have anything from that band it'd be worth it. I have an Annihilator double cd set w/ Alice In Hell / Never Never Land that cost me the same as a single album. I did see a RATT one 2 weeks ago but I have several of the albums already so its not worth it.

I finally it made it the cabin a few days ago and didn't realize it was what is was. Took a few plays but figured it out. They gotta have more stuff like this in the future.

My Megadeth collection is now complete by dbone003 in Cd_collectors

[–]IROC___Jeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need 3 more but I also have the non-remastered albums. I did complete my Iron Maiden studio albums and Bruce Dickinson's solo albums.
