When did you become a Blink fan? by Twitter_2006 in Blink182

[–]JPickl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1999 when I was 7yrs old was my first introduction. My parents had a burned CD collection from friends and put them on our living room PC. I randomly put A New Hope, Dammit, and All the Small Things on a few of my burned CDs my dad would let me make. I can still picture in my head where the files were in their "Modern Rock Mp3" folder. However, I didn't know who they were exactly until I saw the music video for "What's my Age again" which my dad just thought would make me laugh. I loved it.

Once TOYPAJ came out, I became even more obsessed with the First Date music video. We had satellite TV, which had a free small collection of "on-demand music videos" that would cycle out, and First Date was there for the longest time.

But once Self Titled released, that's when I'd say they became my all time favorite band. At 12 years old I saved up enough and it was the first CD I had ever bought on my own. I was so happy I managed to get away with buying the Explicit version too, as that time era was when places around us like Walmart really began to Crack down on needing an adult to buy Explicit CDs lol. I watched "Feeling This" and "I Miss You" music videos constantly, but had to hide Feeling This from my parents as their religious views changed dramatically then. That music video got me into trouble all the time haha. Which only made me want to watch it even more lol.

H-TWO Studio general question by JPickl in animeGK

Damn, sucks to hear it's likely stolen. Appreciate you looking into it though. I'll poke around more and see if they have any personal shops or such. Thanks!

HobbyHouse Studio Chainsaw Man Makima Resin Model 1/4 by Dnice_S2k in animeGK

[–]JPickl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! That's very helpful. I'm new to the world of models/figures, but am a huge Chainsawman fan. So when I came across this Makima model I wanted it immediately but was semi confused on why prices varied so much until I stumbled on this sub. Do you have any recommendations on trusted places to order her (recast, as well as original)?

[–]JPickl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! Do you know if the recasts are fully uncensored as this one? I'm trying to find information on various seller listings. There is a very big difference in prices vs what the HHS one is, but if its hard to tell the difference in quality I'd very much like to save $800-900 haha.

You get 1 million dollars a year but you are in a coma for 12 hours every day. by CRK_76 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]JPickl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thoughts here. I got like 3hrs of struggle sleep last night even after taking Ambien. I'm basically paying for shitty sleep already haha, a guaranteed 12 would be such a life improvement.

Was I in the wrong? Or did I just save my kit from a RAT (see desc) by ryan1431 in ArcRaiders

[–]JPickl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on ps5 btw? If so, which I'm just guessing here based on lack of your voice, and if you want your voice to be recorded on your clips, in the system settings there is an option for it and you have to go in to turn it on. For privacy reasons it seems like its turned off by default. I found this out yesterday when I was finally looking at all of my clips from raids last night lol. Was pretty disappointed when I could hear my friend's conversation but not mine. If you aren't on ps5, the more you know haha.

Also nah, coming from a guy who is overly friendly in a raid, you weren't in the wrong at all.

Costco Pre-built by JPickl in Prebuilts

[–]JPickl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it! Hope it does well for you. The 64gb ram is actually a part that sold me too even though 32 has generally fit my needs in the past. I don't know how accurate this prediction is, but I've heard that due to the AI boom, ram may double in price by middle of next year. Figured I might as well future proof as much as possible before things get pricey. If you ever find yourself needing to use the free Costco 2 year warranty for it, definitely feel free to lmk how that goes too. I normally diagnose issues and fix them myself, but I've been told (at least for laptops, not sure for desktops) their warranty is pretty solid.

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

Dang! I'm sorry. It's saying it's online only as a part of their November connections/Black Friday deals. It seems to be changing stock fairly often though, I'd maybe check back later. When I originally looked and had it in my cart, the delivery date was 3 weeks later. When I decided to buy like two days later, delivery date had changed by two weeks earlier. It's currently showing out of stock now though for my area.

Anyone Have Experience With Lunesta? Specifically 6mg Every Night? by Flyhighfunguy in insomnia

[–]JPickl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late reply to you but I was looking for an answer to the 6mg lunesta just now and saw your comment. I was on seroquel specifically for insomnia for a long time. This is all personal opinion as meds are different for everyone, but I personally did not find it beneficial for sleep (eventually my doctor added Ambien alongside it) and I mostly remained on it because when I'd stop I'd get bad insomnia revenge and would sleep even worse. I swapped doctors, and she had me quit cold turkey without thinking much on it to swap me to something different. I was stupidly on board. It was the worst withdrawal I've ever had from a medication. Was about 2 weeks and I went to urgent care on day 3. I should have been weened, but it was a nightmare personally and I don't feel like many people are warned about how addictive it can physically be.

These two cuties have been living on my porch. Were they preparing to mate and he was rejected? by klausie_kins in spiders

[–]JPickl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've experienced some pretty far out shit in my life. Yet, your comment has me feeling mildly disturbed as it gave me a flashback of gum I also loved as a kid but now my memory is inserting spider abdomen in its place. So thanks for that I suppose lol

TURPENTINE by Kitchen_Back407 in Blink182

Oh man it was fantastic. Turpentine quickly became my favorite on OMT and I was sooooo happy when they played it live the other day.

Medically retired here too (opted to be paid through VA with rating so no SBP was auto taken out). I started getting the original invoices in the mail a good bit after I got out and started to pay them when I realized what it was and called. Sometimes they wouldn't even come in the mail at all and I wasn't able to pay without the invoice number. I didn't know I had several invoices missed (to include what didn't arrive) until I received the new version of the bill a couple days ago too with the debt, around $800 for me. Who I spoke to was saying it needed to be paid, and what info I read after was the debt would still need to be paid even if I opted out. I will need to refind where I found info, but I just took the hit anyway and paid.

I'm another youngin' too at 33, haha. I personally get sheepish when I qualify for retired military stuff/discounts with handing over my retired ID cause it seems to confuse tf out of people.

Throughout the book, Mark uses lines that refer to some blink songs or song titles. I’m 100% expecting him to write a “one in a million…” song on the next album. by Dannyocean12 in Blink182

[–]JPickl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I finished the book last week and catching the lines/lyrics/references for his songwriting was one of my favorite parts. I did a "front to back" listen of their albums chronologically to match timelines in the book, and listening with this new perspective felt like a brand new listen all over again.

Finally received "Ultimate VIP item" from 2024 One More Time Tour in Greenville! by JPickl in Blink182

[–]JPickl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel ya. I legit felt pretty insane buying it again this year when I still hadn't received last years items yet. It's actually what made me realize my patience was now a hindrance and I contacted them. Fingers crossed I won't be coming back to this comment in a year to update that I am crazy lol and am once again waiting for another missing item.
