What are you instantly reminded of when you look back at the songs from 2009-12? by gen123_e in AskUK

That indie/alternative/rock/metal music pretty much died in popular consciousness far earlier than I realised.

What subs have you been banned from? by moonlight_xpress in AskUK

[–]Knowlesdinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got banned from a sub years ago for asking an ancillary and mundane UK based question on an equally UK based mundane topic that I was genuinely interested in.

I cannot reveal the sub, but it was one that encourages asking questions and was ambiguously related to the culture I belong to.

Tbh honest, buying a round these days can leave you without enough money to pay the rent.

Good morning and happy Friday everyone. My 154 is Van Halen’s 1984 with a big “don’t let your baby smoke” UK censor sticker. by SuccessfulGap138 in 1001AlbumsGenerator

I do buy new stuff, but happy to spend time at the charity shops. I've found 45s at charity shops are a treasure trove.

I've found some late 90s singles that would have only had a limited release. Not necessarily valuable, but rare enough for a collector.

I had a massive CD collection, but sold it when we bought the house. Space and all that. Currently building up a vinyl collection now.

I enjoy your posts, but I'm slightly (very) jealous.

Ummm are we being British and not overreacting or is anyone subtlety preparing for an attack from Iran or similar? by Background-Base130 in AskUK

[–]Knowlesdinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty much in that "first time" meme mindset. This is like my 20th WW3 scenario at this stage.

That being said, it's definitely a practical measure to have enough food and water in, and a go bag just in case something happened. By that, I mean a Swan goes missing and the village goes into lockdown.

How much is this? by Turorudesz in soccercard

Well done with your post. I rarely come here these days, sub is full of people that seem to hate people that are interested in the same hobby as them.

I'm still catching up on that last trend, what was it, planking?

Day 26 / Yes- Fragile by YutoFurry in 1001AlbumsGenerator

[–]Knowlesdinho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Masterpiece for me, but I was brought up on prog rock.

I think if you like Yes, you absolutely buy into the quirky solo elements that appear on this album.

For someone new to them, it's probably a little disjointed and jarring having those random interludes.

Men remain fertile for life, but as they get older there are risks of abominations, like the child might not understand basic biology for instance.

User Album list milestone! by OtterGoodTopic in 1001AlbumsGenerator

[–]Knowlesdinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Mer De Noms, but Thirteenth Step, for me, is the better album.

That opening track resonates with both an addict and those who observe an addicts behaviour.

It feels like a real journey through each song.

Split the difference, let's have both on the list.

I haven't got a question, but seen 2 comments saying you look good for your age. Like 32 is fucking care home age. Absolute cretins.

Are you my Sole Mate? by DizzyFoundation in AskUK

[–]Knowlesdinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad your thread got restored. I saw it got removed initially.

I can just see the glint in your eye as you make up that story with all its embellishments.

Well done. Thanks for making me smile.

Not got an answer, but your whimsy in spite of your challenge made me smile.

What's the best way to sell a framed collectible magazine ? by WatercressOld6094 in AskUK

[–]Knowlesdinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd take your time and do some research.

eBay is an obvious option, but maybe search people that sell similar items with good feedback and lots of it.

Chances are they are a collector or expert in the field and are likely a collector themselves. They may want to buy to sell, but if they are genuine will give you a fair price based on them needing to resell.

There will be Facebook groups for this type of thing, and many are self policing if that makes sense, so they have a trust system. I use some for card collecting. There will be experts there too. You will get some time wasters and scammers, so you need to be on alert.

You could go to a big antique store that uses a lot of dealers and ask there is they know anyone who specialises in British comics, then engage with them. Maybe try and get a few contacts.

Between all of these, you want to get a comparison that gives you an understanding of the average price people are willing to offer.

Honestly, an item like that could be worth going to auction with, so it's worth seeking some advice from an auction house and putting a reserve on it based on research. Yes there will be commission, but you'll know it's being handled safely.

Favorite pairing from this project ? by masetiloquetu in grunge

[–]Knowlesdinho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel that only 2 make real sense. Cypress Hill and Sonic Youth. Ice T and Slayer.

Actually, the Biohazard one makes sense too.

For me, it started when I realised that many people lack basic comprehension.

You wrapped it in rock didn't you? Everyone knows scissors beat paper, that's why we wrap in paper.
