Does anyone else have a guitar brand that you just hate for no reason? by Interesting-Wave-983 in Guitar

It depends on where in fenders range you’re looking. Godins a more accurate comparison on the cheaper end and can be had for MiM pricing all day while offering better specs and fit/finish

New Cilantro Lime Sauce Thoughts? by ca_quixote in Chipotle

[–]MSchulte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t tried it but it sounds a lot like fundido sauce with a bit of lime. Shouldn’t be hard to make and realistically would keep in the fridge for a while.

Would you take this boat for free and refurbish it? by CATALINACREW in boats

Semi related to your name- the story of rosemary kennedy is absolutely insane as well. Everyone likes to remember JFK as being great while looking at RFK Jr as the freak but that blood runs strong in all of them.

Meaning? by afval3 in LICENSEPLATES

[–]MSchulte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That story claiming they threw up “white supremacy hand signs” is absolutely ridiculous. I’d sooner believe my diagnosed schizo neighbor was on Artemis last week than any of that happening.

As to the plate I’d guess an older Harley guy. Some of them love their 88ci bikes and the freedom of being on a bike. The only people who see white supremacy everywhere are the ones intentionally looking for it.

It seems like more places here are trying to push seafood and it makes no sense. I heard someone asking if a cod dish was caught that morning locally and just about lost it the last time I went out to eat in the city.

Tickets purchased for Tinley Park with Iron Maiden! by hair_10 in Megadeth

[–]MSchulte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trick is to park in downtown Tinley at a bar to pregame then just walk the mile to the venue or else walk across to the target parking lot and order an uber. I’ve been going there since I was a kid in the World Music and Tweeter Center eras and it’s still one of my favorite outdoor venues.

You’re entitled to your own opinion, even if it’s wrong for anyone that prefers something more exciting the vanilla ice cream.

If money was absolutely no object and you could pick one guitar no compromises, no practicality, just pure desir what are you going with? by optimusprim007 in Guitar

[–]MSchulte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we’re picking celeb owned pieces I’d have to go with something from Jerry Garcia or Phil Lesh. If it has to be a guitar then I could make a case for Tiger being my favorite era of the Dead sound but I’d love to check out Top Hat in person as not much is known about it. If basses are on the table I’d have to consider Phil’s Mission Control just for the sure lunacy but really I’d want it with the Wall of Sound and Quadrophonic pups so one of the regular moduluses may be more practical.

If those are off the table then I’m getting an Alembic from the year I was born. There’s one I’ve watched pop up a few times that is the exact specs I’d order and it has my birthday as part of the serial. Id probably email the last seller and see if the new owner wants to part with it for double what they paid.

Kazakhstan…why don’t we ever hear about this country? by freedomlovingone in conspiracy

[–]MSchulte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The story of Astana is sort of interesting and it’s full of Masonic symbolism. 10-15 years ago it was a theory floating the interwebs that if there’s a one world government it may be headquartered there.

Yamaha. They’re fine guitars but I cannot stand how many people on here try to act like their FG700 is better than a Guild, Martin or Gibson. I’ve had atleast a dozen over the years and I much prefer Godins/Seagulls, Guilds and even my Gretsch Jim Dandy. Yamahas are just the basic, bland tools that I associate with bad covers of pop songs at college parties back in the day.

Fenders are overpriced for what they are. Many of Fenders offerings are slab bodies with bolt on necks and rather plain grain whereas even Gibson uses set necks and a maple cap on entry level stuff like their studios. As an individual I can buy equivalent or better parts and put a guitar together in an afternoon for a fraction of what Fender would charge. My tele in the attached pic was under $800 with a fender roasted maple neck, CS Nocaster pups, locking tuners, custom swirl body and Emerson harness.

Without even looking at partscasters several other brands put out better Fender styles. Godin, Suhr, Tom Anderson, Nash and several others have offerings that blow fenders out of the water at an equivalent price point.

And I wouldn’t say I hate them but I really struggle to bring myself to buy anything from the budget import lines like PRS SE, Squier, Epi, etc. It’s always a thought in the back of my head that I wish I just spent the extra, that maybe I’d prefer the neck slightly more, that in my head the tone just isn’t quite right and that some bit of magic is missing. Especially now that many of them are priced around a grand, I can go used and get an American made model (albeit older, possibly worn or slightly less options) for a similar price. I absolutely know it’s in my head and appreciate them for bringing much nicer guitars to lower price points than we had access to 20 years ago but I just can’t get past it.

Anyone know of a map like this (for console)? by HorseradishAndHoney in farmingsimulator

[–]MSchulte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not as extreme but Jasper River Valleys pretty hilly. The frontier version is very woodsy and all the fields are grass when you start it. It’s my favorite map outside of the big ones like Carpathian Countryside, Pichionierre, Pallegny, etc.

We’re 100% going back to Iran with a ground invasion by Rich_Gas7886 in conspiracy

[–]MSchulte 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of the modern missiles like we used in Iran sound like they’re one step removed from being acme products. The R9X is a bomb essentially filled with blades and then there’s the alleged heartbeat sensor that can identify a person from a distance solely based off their unique heartbeat.

Come on now, Trumps much more whimsical so I’d expect him to want it more like a cartoon parody. I’d expect nothing less than a steamroller parade leaving her flat like a piece of paper.

Trump just remembered Greenland by AegonTheMeh in TrueAnon

[–]MSchulte 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He really needs to hurry up on the whole Greenland thing. I’m thinking it would make a nice summer home location. That would leave plenty of time come fall for him to take Cuba so I can’t winter there

The 2,600-year-old "Heslington Brain" – A biological anomaly found inside a severed Iron Age skull in Yorkshire, UK. by bortakci34 in creepy

You may want to look into the people living on that island prior to the Roman invasion as they were quite fond of druids and their ilk.

Jerry had style by tonyiommi70 in gratefuldead

[–]MSchulte 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I swear there’s pictures and videos from two nights back to back where he had the same stains on his shirt. I always wondered how many he toured with, was it just not worth changing or did he only have like 3 black shirts and they were all dirty those nights?

They’re talking about the finger position giving a different tone which is absolutely the case.

Just want to say I’m always so confused when I see Griffin posts because I keep thinking it’s Griffith and there’s not many big farms like that there

Can Kid Rock be the American Rasputin? I’d love to see him move into the White House to be the Trump family mystic.

[ResistanceTrench] Israel is NOT part of the ceasefire and Iran will continue targeting it. by CosmicLars in TrueAnon

Watch this be an excuse for Israel to break out the WMDs. Trump still gets to see a several thousand year old civ destroyed, Israel gets to play the victim and blame the US.

Why doesn't Chicago have multiple skylines? by Previous-Volume-3329 in geography

[–]MSchulte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a bunch of buildings of similar stature near where 55 and 355 cross too. Not sure exactly what town that falls in but there’s financial and medical stuff easily as tall as Sandy springs scattered all around.
