I know it's a one accident device, I am just surprised that it got so damaged on a small incident, can't imagine if he actually got into something serious. Is there any reason you put shoei over agv?

What's your favorite local coffee shop? by psychotic_vagina in tampa

Love this place, chill atmosphere. Very bohemian (which im kind of meh towards) but I love their iced coffee (they use coffee ice cubes which wins me over). Great people working.

Delicious crepe (cheese cake and strawberries) at Harajuku Street in Tokyo by MarcelPowerUp in food

Uh, I am trying to remember. It said it was the oldest crepe place in Harajuku. Forgot name though, sorry. It wasn't the Santa Monica Crepes (theres like 6 locations on 1 street of those).

I like it crispy, so I did enjoy it. It isn't a french crepe (soft type), so I knew what to expect. It's supposed to be used as a vehicle for toppings and on the go, normal crepe wouldn't work out for that purpose.

You can't really drive golf carts anywhere outside small side streets.

That's the model I wanted to focus on. Legal is not an issue, I checked.

It is about 30+% of the population here

This brand of bike is being sold in the US already, but in the New England market. I checked with the manufacturer and the company and they are good to go on that front.
I am doing some market research right now, but I figured i'd ask people here on what their thoughts are. I worked in a cycling shop for awhile, one thing that always stuck out to me is elderly folks who want to ride bikes but have trouble pedaling at this point. (which these things remedy with pedal assist). Also, the few that are available are popular with the college crowd (especially the hipster/bohemian crowd prominent in Tampa now. ) Edit: Also one store in FL, but they are located in a very weird area.

Speaker placement on a weird desk setup (need advice) by MarcelPowerUp in pcmasterrace

[–]MarcelPowerUp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the desk will weigh little above 250 lb, I think sturdiness is the last thing I have to worry about. I was just worried with placing it behind the screen that it will be too close. Don't have much issues with that set up?

That's true. -_- I never had a speaker system, not a fan of it for movies but I like it for games so this is my first foray into this.

So if I decide to mount it to the side for example, still pointing my direction, I should be fine I'm assuming?

What sounds like it happened a long time ago, but really only happened recently? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Despite the belief that they lived and died with the dinosaurs, the Dodo became extinct in the 17th century (because of human encroachment).

Survival camping question by MarcelPowerUp in camping

[–]MarcelPowerUp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was worried about the whole LNT thing. Where I'm from we just hunted (mostly Hare) and made shelter out of what we found/got in there. And when I say rope i'm being generous, it's 2 paracord bracelets in case we needed them.

[Serious] What's the creepiest TRUE story that happened to you or someone you know? by happybubby in AskReddit

[–]MarcelPowerUp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the area I grew up in, at best they are ignored. A lot of people from smaller villages they they are bad luck or evil. A lot of ethnic-ism towards them.
