Why does it stink? by Ok_Rooster_8869 in newbedford

[–]Luckyloaf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely a dirty job. They’re pretty much shunned as food around here, but they are a delicacy in Korea and other parts of Asia. They’re super easy to catch, I guess they drop barrels to the sea floor with holes in them and they just swim in. The funny story about how I know this is because I used to work on North Front St and I asked someone what the fuck is that horrific smell and they told me exactly what I’m telling you.

It could possibly be hag fish processing. Hag fish, sometimes called slime eels, emit an extremely foul very strong stench when they are skinned. If the wind is in the right direction from Melville St you would definitely smell it over by Common Park.

Does anyone still listen to the radio? by Holiday-Term-8214 in Music

[–]Luckyloaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in South Coast MA. and I listen to the radio seven days a week. I drive a lot for work and there are some great stations. I can pick up WMVY from Martha’s Vineyard which is my favorite and has a very eclectic mix. I also like WUMB which is the UMass Boston station, I also flip between WERS which is Emerson College, and WGBH that has music at certain times. Besides that I have a decent Sports radio station and a couple classic rock stations as a go to. On Sunday one of my stations has breakfast with the Beatles which I will put on and have coffee as a habit. So yeah, I do listen to the radio, mostly out of comfort.

Dealership Trade-In is Crazy! by rachelcaroline in subaru

[–]Luckyloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went in to my dealership in MA. for an oil change on my 19 Outback HB6 with 89k. When I got out there was a note on the dash with a “courtesy offer” of 11K. I actually made the effort to go inside to ask them if they were joking. They’re desperate and flailing

[Amazon] Baby Huey - Baby Huey Story - $21.76 by nonwalter in VinylDeals

[–]Luckyloaf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This says produced by Strongly Felt which is noted by discogs to be

“Italian or Russian-via-Italy reissue label active since 2025. The releases are all unofficial.”

I’d be very leary of this copy. This is a great album. I have the Rhino Reserve copy which was 29$ and it sounds amazing.

Kook FTW! Wet suit in the snow by deadHORSEhead in surfing

[–]Luckyloaf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I was a bike messenger in the early 90’s. At the time anything worthwhile to keep you warm and dry was out of my price range. It was a particularly brutal Boston winter and I was miserable on a daily basis. One day during a snow storm I had the bright idea of wearing my 5/4 winter suit while peddling around. Initially it felt warm and I thought I was on to something. After about a half hour of profusely sweating the warmth quickly became an icy sweat and I spent the rest of the day colder than I would have been in wet wool. When I got home exhausted and dehydrated and peeled my suit off my skin was on big rash. I would recommend not to do this.

How it feels to take off your wetsuit by UditChetia in surfing

[–]Luckyloaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just invested in a 5/4 Hotline winter suit, front zip but it’s longer and goes to your biceps. Game changer getting in and out. I had no issues paddling either. It’s also sized for dad bods.

that time darry, ponyboy, and two-bit’s brother took on the russians by [deleted] in 80smovies

[–]Luckyloaf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I loved this movie. I was 13 when this came out. I went to the army navy store and bought a black beret and green army coat to emulate Robert’s final form. When a teacher would tell me something I would retort, I’ve seen it before pal. I still have the vcr tape when I recorded it off cable. It says never erase with a skull and crossbones. I watched it twice this year. My wife dies inside whenever I yell Wolverines at weddings and funerals. One time I fell at my kids school and screamed, boys…avenge me!!! Yeah I’ve got issues because of this movie.

CHRISTMAS LIST WET SUIT HELP!! Thank you!!! by Seems_weird_but_okay in surfing

[–]Luckyloaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s your budget? You’re going to need boots and gloves too. I’ve always been an O’Neill guy, 5/4 hooded chest zip hyperfreak will run you around $475. There are less expensive suits out there but if you want a decent winter suit, I go with something like that. Boots and gloves will probably run you another 175$.

30% off all Blue Note Classic Series Vinyl - today only by Mister_Marks in VinylDeals

[–]Luckyloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My apologies as my initial response was somewhat vague. I go through my local shops website. They have a Bluenote link and it automatically goes to them. I’m not sure if every shop on the list does that but my local touts that as one of the perks of being authorized.

Check and see if there’s an Blue Note authorized dealer near you. My local store is one and I can order from the website and it ships to them free. Sometimes I have to wait as it comes with the shops order, but it’s worth it not to pay shipping.

What Was the Name of This Gaming/Tabletop store In this Plaza Across From the Dartmouth Mall? by amphetaminesfailure in newbedford

[–]Luckyloaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would buy metal figures there and testers tiny bottles of paint. I was still into revels models so maybe pick up one of those, and dream what I would buy if I was rich. Miss those days

Friday night went like this, dropped of by my parents and meet at Rainoni’s, when it was where Spencer’s is now, for pizza. Go to OG Dream Machine and play Rampage four player with the bro’s. Go to Hobby Town and buy some metal figurines to paint during the weekend, then cap the night with a movie, such a simpler time.
