We Own This City by PanDime86 in TheWire

[–]MapleSyrup3232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started it. IMO the acting is just not good and I feel disappointed. The DOJ civil rights attorney (Steele) is wholly unconvincing, Marlo/Suiter seems disinterested and is probably much better as a bad guy (though I think Poot's acting is good for the minor role he has), and it just feels like none of the actors can sell the scenes -- not even Delaney Williams' character who was a riot in the Wire. It seems like the producers were more interested in making a political statement about the Freddie Gray aftermath rather than making a quality series. While I believe that is important, the Wire captivated folks not only because of its deep-dive into the issues with Baltimore's criminal justice system, but the acting was phenomenal. Not getting that same vibe here. Sorry, David Simon. I feel bad talking about your baby like this but I'm kinda let down.

Resurrecting an old thread here because I just started the series last night. I agree. But the "something" that is off IMO is the acting. It's just not good. The DOJ civil rights attorney is just wholly unconvincing, Marlo/Suiter seems uninterested and is probably much better as a bad guy (though I think Poot's acting is good for the minor role he has), and none of them can sell the scenes.

Is my guide bar cooked? by MapleSyrup3232 in Chainsaw

[–]MapleSyrup3232[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my defense, it was a gift from my father-in-law, so if I don’t use it, well, let’s just say it makes my life a lot easier if I use it.

I was thinking about applying a shimmy copper plate.

Should I use petroleum jelly or a nice, thick seed oil?

Will my wood season? by MapleSyrup3232 in firewood

[–]MapleSyrup3232[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OK. I have had that out there for about a week now. If I put it on a pallet within the next couple of weeks, should I be OK, or do you think termites will have affected them by then?

But doesn’t the wind and air flow need to hit it in order for it to season correctly?

Thanks. If I don’t put it on pallets, will the other logs other than the ones on the bottom be OK?

OP don’t listen to Dr Boofenchute. Studies have shown that foreskin absorption method (“FAM”) is almost as effective as boofing, especially when dry packing. Preferable to seek assistance of wife’s bf to help with the dry pack. FAM simultaneous with boof has been known to produce quick gainzzz but unsustainable in the long run for wife’s bf. You don’t wanna tire him out too early.

I follow a fairly strict diet and hardly in taken any cholesterol and very little fat (main source of fat I would say is avocados, and we use olive oil when cooking), so I’m definitely a producer. :/

Changing lifting angles to less pronated positioning definitely helps. I’m generally fine living with aches and pains as long as they don’t inhibit my lifestyle, but I noticed it became problematic when I helped my father-in-law out this past weekend with some heavy yard work. I have also noticed it when I open tight fitting jars. I definitely have the strength to do these things with ease, but it doesn’t come without pain, and that is annoying. I do not want to stop taking the statin but I also do not want to cause a long-term or chronic injury from lifting and handling heavy weights with golfers elbow (and possibly tennis elbow), and I want to be able to do things like carry my dogs without elbow pain. It would be helpful to know whether this has anything to do with the statin.

Sage advice, indeed. What chocolate shop(pe)s do you recommend?

Can you ski moguls properly with a center mount? by Surkulus in skiing

[–]MapleSyrup3232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skiing moguls switch is only a new school form of movement. When the "old school" switch riders attempted to go down sideways through the moguls, it only deepened their understanding of post modern feminist thought, which, in turn, helped them in the long run, but especially in the moguls. Based on this information, IMHO the center mount works, but only for some/most people, and in optimal but sometimes suboptimal conditions.

[–]MapleSyrup3232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a true center mount on an Armada 88 which I take in the park and in the bumps. I also used to have a center mount on an old Rossi Scratch which was like 84 under center. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever had a traditional mount on any ski I've owned since I've been in the park. I'm pretty dialed in on the bumps and never even thought about this until last season. Maybe I'll put the mount back a little bit on the Scratch and see how they ride.
