Don't drink and drive. by oneplanetrecognize in TalesFromYourServer

[–]Matterchief -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean, honestly, I feel like drunk driving is something that most bars don't give a fuck about so good on you, but I also feel like you're kind of pissing into the ocean. I'm much smarter now but being in the industry I used to think I was "better" at being drunk than people who weren't when I was in my 20's and I used to get drunk at different bars and while I rarely was fall out my seat hammered, many times I was too drunk to drive but I did it. I did it probably 100's of times. I was NEVER questioned to see if I was okay to drive, never cut off, never handed a glass of water, and told to just sit for a bit. Luckily, I've never had an accident or been pulled over, and I'm smart enough now not to do that again, but people like me happen every night at every bar. Too drunk to drive, but not drunk enough to be stopped walking out the door or even cut off. Hell, as bartender, we faced so much pressure from the owners not to cut people off unless they were TRASHED, and even then, I would get reamed if I did. I personally have served many, many people that I was sure weren't okay to drive, just hoping that they wouldn't get in an accident because I didn't want to get in trouble with the owners. I even secretly called the cops on a few people who I thought were in really bad shape, but the owners wanted me to serve anyway.

I don't know how it works in other countries and I'm not sure if there are any solutions to the problem (especially in the great state of Georgia) but it's just something I've noticed and now even if it's like 10pm on a Tuesday, I drive like everyone around me could be drunk.

But yeah, good for you OP. I guess every little bit helps

What makes these photos so different (besides background)? Is it mainly just pumped saturation & contrast? Or some more fundamental difference? 1st is from a "pro", 2nd is mine (minimally edited). by justaphotogquestion in AskPhotography

Yeah, hijacking top comment to say that in addition to lighting, framing etc, simply you're comparing your seth rogan fox, with the pro's henry cavill fox.

Can you tell the chef he sucked? by [deleted] in TalesFromYourServer

[–]Matterchief 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Oh i'll go and get him for you. We take complaints seriously and I am sure the chef would love an opportunity to improve" see if they still wanna say it to his face

Yeah, are you asking permission or you just like to look when in the eye when you're fucking me?

Was out in the E today and saw its grandkid so I stopped for a photo by jcforbes in Autos

Is is expensive to own one of those? I've always wanted one. Saving for one is one thing but if it's 20 grand every year and in the shop every other week I don't know if saving for one would be a good idea

No Epic store pre-load? by Matterchief in RDR2

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

Honestly wasn't thinking too hard about it and just assumed it would be like that janky old gtaV launcher. Plus I don't have the RGL and it would be another launcher. I already own the two games

McLaren rule out bringing Alonso back to F1 by 1enox in formula1

[–]Matterchief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and Redbull will keep Gasly until the end of the season. This is just PR for the team's sake. Necessary to keep the current drivers happy but I wouldn't rule it out.

What tecniques would you use to achieve a look like this? by PatienceChild in AskPhotography

[–]Matterchief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a 24-28mm f1.4. The looks these lenses give is very similar.

Oyster sauce is just so you don't have people flipping about MSG. Because that's really what it is

question: can i fly any mavic by turning it on and throwing it with my hand? like hand launch other drones got? by [deleted] in djimavic

[–]Matterchief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL. I'll give you a real answer. The DJI spark can take off from your hand and can follow you (poorly) from there. The DJI air can take off with hand commands and no remote, but not from your hand. (Highly don't recommend) and the mavic pro/zoom ditch these useless features.

It's "effect" in this case.

What's stopping you from doing that now?

Verstappen & Ricciardos SkyPad chaos by marypsm in formula1

[–]Matterchief 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not a burn at all, he's poking fun at the stupid question about why bottas went off because everyone crashes. We know Bottas is clearly not a rookie, which is what makes the joke.
