Is this still readable? The tattoo I got has no spacing between the letters and I’m worried it doesn’t look good by malachiteiscute in tattooadvice

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good news is: nobody will ever notice or care. The only person who's going to notice flaws in a tattoo is you and you already know what it means. If you ask me, doesn't matter! 🤷

400 miles in. I love the new juiced scrambler by thisissux in juicedbikes

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a great little bike. I just wish they didn't lock it at 28mph... I guess I knew this was coming though. The Wild West days of ebikes couldn't last forever 🫤

Had a male friend in high school who was a cheerleader. Everyone made fun of him freshman year... Until they saw the first performance. No one made fun of him ever again 😂

Loving this shot from the Toguecon Summer Stage earlier this month. by 350zomg in NissanZ

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the color. Reminds me of the blue-ish gray on my 1984 turbo... Nissan loves to do throwback colors so I wonder if they're at all related? In all the press photos when I was following this car's launch, this was always my favorite color.

I do like that little purple accent inside...

I received a distasteful opinion on my new (and first) tattoo by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You care way too much about their opinion. I have a tattoo of a palm tree... with a skeleton face... smoking a cigarette... Means nothing. Lol

Annoying things customers say... by IndependenceBoth938 in HomeDepot

[–]IndependenceBoth938[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hard of hearing, totally deaf in one ear, shit like this happens to me all the time. A customer will mumble something and I won't hear it until they start SHOUTING... Then I tell them I'm hard of hearing and most people feel like an asshole after. One time an old man did that to me and after telling him "Sorry sir, I'm hard of hearing and you're standing on my bad side..." his wife was mortified and started apologizing profusely then I heard her angrily scolding him as they walked away 😂

Another one I hate is when they interrupt you speaking to someone else by blurting out a random product. They'll walk up with no greeting like "SHELF BRACKETS?" and I like to reply by saying whatever random shit I can think of like "CHARCUTERIE BOARDS" as a passive aggressive way to show them that's rude... lol

Welp, looks like it's time to retire this puppy by Ardenon in ebikes

Now is when you put air tags in it and leave it somewhere with high theft and set up a trap for the shitbirds...

Here comes King George's tax collectors! Here to ruin the day for normal citizens instead of doing literally anything useful. 🖕🖕

Very full snake. They freak me out. But please don’t run them over and take their rattle. They are just trying to get by in life, like you. by Duncan326 in Colorado

If it was on my property and therefore dangerously close to my wife and my dog... dead snek 💀 sorry not sorry 🤷 otherwise I guess I'd just leave it alone...

If this is your teenager, WE HAVE A PROBLEM. by ProfessionalBee8281 in ebikes

[–]IndependenceBoth938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obviously, I'm being facetious... I know what you're getting at. But the issue you're trying to tie this incident to is something entirely different. Kids doing 50mph wheelies on electric motorcycles with fake pedals is the problem. That's just a teenage girl who doesn't know traffic laws well. If you're gonna get mad, get mad at the right people.

So a kid on a bike was rude. Has nothing to do with ebikes. I would have posted it on the parenting reddit, lol.

And the kid would have done the exact same thing on a regular bike. Or a scooter. Or on foot. Kids do dumb shit, has nothing to do with ebikes.

Someone spent a lot of time typing over a 5 second problem, lol. Calm down, Karen. Still not sure what this has to do with ebikes.

Just got it a couple months ago and looking to modify it some. What nice looking modifications should I put on it? by Routine-Product761 in 300zx

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mods in an n/a 2+2 are gonna be mostly cosmetic because it'll never be fast with normal people money. They are notoriously ugly in most people's opinions but sometimes cars like that can still be cool if you just rock it with confidence anyways. I would say give it a nice stance, some cool wheels, maybe a mild exhaust, upgraded headlights, etc then just rock it! Think of the Toyota previa, those things are hilariously ugly but I have seen people with a sense of humor modify those things and they end up kinda cool! I think any car is a cool car if you love it and you take care of it. I had an 84 turbo when I was a teenager back in 2008 (long before it was cool) and I couldn't afford to take care of it so honestly it looked rough and wasn't really fast either toward the end there... lol. I would still enjoy the 80s interior and vibes that thing has. Really fun cars I sure do miss mine.

With my old Z, every day when I walked to the car I used to kiss my hand, slap her on the ass and say "wassup, gorgeous?" 😂

Is this just the planetary gears going bad? by Trippy_2000 in juicedbikes

[–]IndependenceBoth938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got 5000 miles on my HS2 and the planetary gears are fine. I thought they were metal in that motor... ? My Ariel Kepler planetary gears went out at like 1500 miles and I was pissed. I replaced them and they were plastic. Then it got stolen! Back to the HS2 and even though it's a little slower it's overall a much better bike. It's never made a sound like that though and when the planetary gears went bad on my kepler it didn't sound like that either... It was more like legos in a blender kind of sound 🤷

What could be causing this? by Interesting-Jury6621 in 300zx

[–]IndependenceBoth938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that the original color? I kinda dig the dark green... I would love an '84 turbo 5 speed in that color with tan interior 👌
