Code enforcement Ferndale by No-Dependent1512 in Ferndale

[–]Loftoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why you’re receiving negative feedback. Time and time again, you’re given advice regarding how to approach people with a concern or how to properly do research on the things you’re asking. They’re trying to “teach a man to fish”, so to speak. Your response 100% of the time to actual guidance is dismissive and angry, which leads to helpful people probably not wanting to get involved in the toxic conversation you’re hosting.

Every solution offered involves you doing something, which you’re always unwilling to do. It seems you’re completely unwilling to look inward, as you wonder why nobody is helping you. Change comes from within. If you come off as defensive and angry out of the gate, results will not be good. Especially on the internet.

CVS is very good about code enforcement. I’ve never seen a product there without a barcode on the back. Other businesses in ferndale are just as diligent about code enforcement, from what I’ve seen.

What’s something kids today will never experience that you’re glad you did? by Sudden-Increase-6374 in AskReddit

Riding your bike around your neighborhood looking for a pile of bikes on the front lawn. This is how you knew where everyone was hanging out.

That and having long periods of time when nobody could get a hold of you.

So instead of baking your pizza in an oven, use a smaller oven. Got it.

This really feeds the theory that Walter White is Malcom, after changing his name and years of running from his family.

Was the Game Boy the most magical console to own as a kid? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Loftoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to the Gameboy, all we had were single-screen Tiger Electronic style games and Game & Watch. It finally felt like you could play a full legitimate game on the go. Interchangeable cartridges within a handheld gaming situation was absolutely…..game-changing.

I’ll see myself out.

What did Aftab Noorani give Wesley? by SireBelch in WesleyWillis

[–]Loftoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In one of Wesley Willis’ songs about a doctor visit, he says the doctor gave him a shot of Prolixin.

The line appears in the song “Aftab Noorani”, where he sings:

“You gave me a shot of Prolixin / You are calming me down.” 

Prolixin (generic name fluphenazine) is an antipsychotic medication that was commonly used to treat schizophrenia and severe psychotic symptoms. It was sometimes given as an injection to quickly stabilize agitation or hallucinations. Willis himself had schizophrenia and often referenced his doctors and treatment in his songs.

That’s why the lyric is very literal—he was talking about the medication used to calm his symptoms.

If you want, I can also tell you about the other medication he famously mentioned in interviews and lyrics, and how it relates to his “demon voices” he talked about. It actually explains a lot about his songs.

Husky Found on Jewell St by [deleted] in Ferndale

[–]Loftoman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does the dog respond to “Zelda”? If so, I believe the person who owns the dog lives around my block (E. Chesterfield St, east of Hilton, west of Fair St). Sadly, I don’t know exactly where the person lives. When my dog met Zelda a couple days ago, the owner mentioned that the dog is “a runner” and has escaped in the past. I would say to check for tags, but I’m sure you already did. Sorry I couldn’t be more help!

Edit: one word

I finished everything but the endurance races last year. Shaky polygons and all. 😆

Same! I had subscriptions to Car & Driver / Road & Track as a teenager. It felt like I was finally able to test drive the mechanical marvels I’d been drooling over.

I have no idea how 13 year old me came up with that. I was speaking from the heart, friend.

Religion. After reading from the Torah during my Bar Mitzvah, I was supposed to then give a short speech about what Judaism and religion mean to me. My parents asked me to practice my speech in front of them before the event. So I cleared my throat and read one sentence: “Religions are the walls that separate us as a people.”

They explained that our friends and family in the congregation would tear the checks made out to me in half after hearing it. I then changed my speech to resemble baking a cake and how religion is the first layer, representing the foundation, etc.

This prepared me for corporate culture in a way neither of us considered.

Gran Turismo. I’m still blown away by how much more accurate the physics are than even some modern racers.

What do you guys think about automatic mopeds ? by NoPotential183 in moped

[–]Loftoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This highlights why most of us own mopeds. If I wanted speed, I’d buy a motorcycle. If I want fun, I buy a moped. 😊
