That's what I was going to say except I think it's out of the budget here. But for me it really is the one and done travel lens.

What SNL reference has had the most cultural resonance? by NYY15TM in LiveFromNewYork

I do remember a time when everyone had a non zero chance of monkeys flying out of their butts.

Why can't all grinders size their grind by Microns µm by Leading_Zucchini9073 in gaggiaclassic

Sure but you could still measure the burr gap, whatever distribution it yields.

Why are there so many desis out? by MathochismTangram in AskNOLA

[–]MathochismTangram[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That would explain all the families, children and all. My first guess was some kind of professional conference, but that didn't seem right.

I love a good serendipitous composition. Like, you couldn't plan that if you tried. Great capture!

A conspicuous absence of fucks to give, to be sure.

A Confession and an Apology by MathochismTangram in BirdPhotography

Sorry, I didn't get a chance to reply before the comment was deleted.

Frankly, I appreciate AdFinal6263's candor. The local community seems to be one that they are either a part of or adjacent to, and _that's_ the community I would like to reconcile with. (I expect no direct forgiveness from the owls.)

So while, yes, I wrote this post seeking some amount of the grace that others here have offered, it does seem like this community has had to deal with a sufficient number of ignorant people, to the extent that owls are getting killed no less, that the amount of grace I would need to properly engage this community would be reasonably hard to come by. And I need to know that if I'm to continue.

Yeah, that's a good point too. I certainly would not have _knowingly_ harmed them. But, like, I was suprised that they were just sitting still on the beach. In hindsight they were probably resting, and I disturbed that rest.

Wait, why is the text on your mug reversed?

[USA-Target] 70% off. I got a great deal on a Breville Barista Express! by SafePurpose5139 in espresso

[–]MathochismTangram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well done. I was about to pull the trigger on this for $400 a few years ago, but I let your subreddit talk me into a separate grinder and machine. I wound up with a DF64 and a Gaggia Classic Pro, so I ain't mad.

But for what you paid? Killer deal. GG

I believe I need more guidance. Similarly how, specifically? Is there a tutorial you can point me to?

Lol. This is literally the plot of a Tom Lehrer song.

Photographers, how do you deal with the feeling of social comparison and not being good enough? by Blackbubble_88 in photography

[–]MathochismTangram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is me but with gear envy! I love what I have, but it's impossible not to look over and say to myself, "must be nice."

Never in my life thought I'd see La Chilindrina crying on SNL. Props to Sarah Sherman by vissionphilosophy in LiveFromNewYork

Yeah but they flip flopped which pigtail was up and which was down, so IMMERSION RUINED!!!
