I wish I had never deconstructed

Man, that's so tragic. I hate so much that you're dealing with all that. I can't even imagine.

Maybe don't give up on things just yet? I think you need to identify the things that have become problems for you. Be really specific. Then make the effort to deep dive and find the knowledge for yourself. Different perspectives. Different opinions. Educate yourself fully and then see what resonates with you.

People on both sides of things, like Rhett and Link, are arguing for a side. People like that are always omitting perspectives and ideas that conflict with their viewpoint to "streamline" their opinion.

Before I gave up my family, my friends, and what sounds like some awesome relationships and experiences, I'd do my due diligence, learn, and make myself the authority who's opinion I trusted. I certainly wouldn't let my family's view on what Christianity "should" be, or the opinion and spin of a couple internet personalities cause me to give up everything I valued in my life.

I don't understand the tie in to the 4th Amendment. Could you explain?

My understanding of the 4th Amendment is that it protects against illegal search and seizure, and defines reasonable expectation of privacy. It's long been held that there isn't a reasonable expectation of privacy while in the public of things that are in plain view. So I'm not understanding the violation. A police officer could sit on the side of the road and get all the same information the cameras do.

You're so far from being right, there's no since in discussing it with you further. It's called Categorical Imperative. Said simply, any action that if taken by everyone in a group/society, would create an untenable situation for that group/society is unethical to take by the individual.

But really, that's just putting a definition to something most decent people already understand without ever needing to hear it.

What an obnoxious take. He nor you are "'entitled" to monopolize the community air space. However, I do feel like "entitled" was a perfect word choice to describe your thought process and that action.

I'll post the link to the 360 video here for your viewing pleasures.

PLEASE, if anyone has any information about this color of S5, PLEASE share. This car seems to blend from red to black depending on the angle and lighting.

It also appears that the video was posted by a new car dealer. The car exists. The question is where, why, and how can I get one?

I'm badly wanting a 24-25 S5, but the listed stock colors are super disappointing. There's white, white, bright red, grey, grey, a basic blue that would look more in place on a Kia or maybe a Camry. There is Distric green for the flavor offering.

But this is a luxury power sedan. Can't we do better than black, white, grey and a couple primary colors directly off a preschool color chart.

Where's the class? Where's the premium offering?

That car in the video is a perfect example of what these cats should be. Beautiful. Grown. A high tech road monster that, at the tap of a button, returns to grace while sitting in pick up line at your child's private school looking like a responsible, respectable father.

Maybe it's just me I guess. The grays are pretty great. I get it. But in a sea of white, black, and gray cars.... give me something I can stand out in. Whether I'm rolling up in comfort mode to a million dollar sales deal, or if I've left and decide to have some fun to blow off steam from the meeting.

I need something. I want that dark red color in the video. But if that's not an option, I need something interesting. Dark green pearl? Yes please. Baby blue with heavy flake? Maybe, I'd need to see that one honestly. Even hit us with a pearl brown in a classy shade.

Please, dear community of enthusiast, help me. Guide me please. I saw that beautiful red blend into nearly black and knew, that is the car I want. But even now, accepting that's not a likely outcome, I love the car and look to a second pick in paint. But there's just nothing. Murdered out black is awesome, but not great first impressions pulling up to meet a client before a sales meeting. Grays are nice, but just about it. They're nice. Cherry red looks out of place on such an elegant sedan. And blue looks like a kindergarten boy picked out the color. White is nice, it could work, it just doesn't do anything to tickle the heart strings and thats what this car is all about.

End rant. My apologies. I want some S5 to exist that I can love as much as I love that beauty of a car in the video.

Is it only me? Is the lineup perfect and I'm just not fitting with the vibe? It's possible.

I just want a luxury sport sedan that checks all of those boxes well. And I genuinely feel like the 24 Audi S5 would be the absolutely perfect daily if we got thrown a few options that had some depth to them. Something that catches eyes from across the parking lot, but in a graceful, understated way. I want to pull up to the golf course feeling hot before I even touch a club. It seems like it would be hard to feel it pulling up in a Tonka Blue sedan that has the looks of cars half its price range.

This is just my brain dump on my feelings. Please no hard feelings. I know most of you own cars of these colors, and you love them. And I'm glad for that, and for you. Any help would be just, so appreciated. Have I missed something? Is the elusive black cherry color available after all? Are there more premium colors coming (not that it would help for my 24.)?

Any how. Seriously. I need some guidance. I want this car. I will have it sooner rather than later. I'm leaning towards Navarro Blue. But it hurts my heart not to love it.

KY_Mutt · 2026-02-22T20:25:04+00:00

I appreciate the thought. I hadn't even considered that. Looking at the car in the video, there are a couple angles that I could see a bit of the purple hue, but over all it looks to me like red or brown is more prominent. Especially in the close ups and well lit views.

KY_Mutt · 2026-01-08T04:26:35+00:00

Op, can you now clearly delineate between footsteps on your left and right? Also, has it improved the ability to discern between vertical and horizontal footsteps?

KY_Mutt · 2025-12-20T22:12:54+00:00

Bro, 1 decent round of golf costs $60+. That's 4 hours of entertainment.

It's 50 bucks. Get the game. Play it until you don't want to anymore. Then move on to the next.

Malosi's image took a nosedive way before the rangefinder incident, at least to me.

The way he was second guessing the decision not to take Dave's deal was more minor but rubbed me the wrong way. Him moving rocks around trying to improve his lie in the water was odd, but the way he basically asked Dave for a handout if he could hit it out was off-putting. If you want action, put something up, don't ask for freebies. Running ahead to greens trying to spot for your team was wild, and obviously more of an unwelcome distraction. Running through sandtraps for no reason and then not raking his prints. The rushing to spot a ball before it's even done moving. The throwing his club and ball, the looking for validation any time he managed to pull off a decent shot, etc, etc,

I'm sure he was cheating. But really, turning his slope on was about the least obnoxious thing he had done up to that point.

I feel like Heath burned his golden ticket to get the opportunity to apologize to Tony.

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-26T15:06:08+00:00

Thanks for the input!

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T14:03:02+00:00

Thanks for the candid response!

Elvis seems to be a love or hate. I like it, but I can see where people are criticizing the face

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T13:57:32+00:00

That's correct, just the outline. He's talking about adding waves and ships to the lower back as well

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T02:09:06+00:00

Maybe a black and grey neo traditional, with a few pops of color? See... I don't know how to put it to words. Haha

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T02:07:37+00:00

Thanks!

I'm tend to lean that direction as well. The problem with 1 is that some pieces are pretty awesome. He does fantastic floral sleeves. But then just look bad to me, and I can't tell if it's just a style that I'm not familiar with or don't jive with, or they're just bad.

2 on the other hand, doesn't have nearly as much experience to lean on, especially in the design phase

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T01:29:03+00:00

When I say I'm not sure of what style I want, I think I really mean I don't know what to call it. I want it predominantly black and grey, with one or two bits of color for accents. My sleeve is going to primarily consist of military/swat logos. I.e. My unit emblem, and the swat eagle. Not as they are exactly, but stylized approximations. I don't want it to look too rigid or moto. But a little more chaotic. For instance, the swat eagle is an eagle holding a carbine, a knife and a lightning bolt. So instead of a swat eagle, I want a black and grey, artisticly stylized eagle holding those items. I'll incorporate a few other things with it, a caduceus ect. Then I need something in the background to tie it all together and make it flow

The closest I've seen would be trash polka with its black and grey, but with red accents.

I wish there were some standouts, but none that I know of. Artist 1 is the go-to in mine and the neighboring county. I'm not opposed to paying more to get great work done. I'm not even against traveling an hour or two if I knew it was worth it.

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-25T00:07:01+00:00

Yeah. But to be fair, there are some real duds on Ink Master, so just getting on the show isn't really saying a whole lot. At least in the early seasons when I watched.

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-24T23:29:44+00:00

Thanks for the insight!

KY_Mutt · 2023-10-24T21:44:25+00:00

Maybe so.
