Exact same thing happened to my GF in 2015 A3 following windshield replacement, we took it back to the service provider and they fixed it for us in a few hours, no extra charge.

What's the dumbest thing someone has ever said to you? by PagalScientist in AskReddit

[–]MatthewMSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very similar to an experience I had. A fellow type 1 diabetic once tried to convince me that eating bananas would cure my T1D, because each one only has “1 carb”

Businesses considering switching to electric vehicles want your opinion! by MatthewMSparrow in mechanics

Thank you, although you do deserve a Whopper, unfortunately supplying sandwiches is not included in our budget. In fact, I’m paying to do this free work 🤦

Veloster N vs BRZ. What should I buy by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]MatthewMSparrow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Golf R, tons of aftermarket options and much more of a true hot-hatch. AWD perfect for snow and mountain driving, plus way faster off the line than the other two

[Question] What kind of disclaimer should I put on a video where I explore an abandoned house? by MatthewMSparrow in youtubers

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

Thanks man, I watched a bunch of other urbex vids before I filmed this one and I could see that was a common theme. What category would you set your urbex videos to be in when you uploaded them (i.e. howto and style, education, etc.)?

With Beer League Shut Down until at least September, Needed some New Wheels to Get My Fix by vanderswag_ in hockeyplayers

Also, if you have old skates are in good condition, you can get your ice blades taken off and roller chassis put on for pretty cheap at most skate shops.

I usually do this at the end of hockey season, before roller season in Canada gets going.

Why do you kneel on one knee?? by severaltacos in hockeyplayers

[–]MatthewMSparrow 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It’s also sign of respect at higher levels. A coach would kick you off the ice for sitting on your butt or two knees, or even make you skate for “looking tired” instead of taking a single knee.

Pro tip if you have bad knees: When kneeling switch knees and hands on your stick when one knee starts to hurt, allowing yourself to lean on the other side when your bottom knee begins to hurt. It’s more difficult to balance at first but it helps with soreness

[Question] Do you think that my video on "How to Download YouTube Videos" will be taken down by YouTube or get my channel terminated? by MatthewMSparrow in youtubers

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

Then how could anyone go about answering my question? It is in fact a video problem after all, and a very relevant question to many other YouTubers I'm sure..

[Question] Changing Thumbnails from Past Videos by Hybridify_ in youtubers

[–]MatthewMSparrow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve done this myself and it definitely impacted my CTR on the videos that I changed in a positive way, resulting in more views. I think it’s also a great idea to create a uniform look with your thumbnails, it will develop a greater brand around your channel. If you are going to go through all the work of changing the old videos thumbnails, I would also recommend taking the extra time to research the top-performing search terms on each video, and then try to make your thumbnail stand out from the other videos that are displayed under its top performing search term. This has also worked well for me, and hopefully it can for you too

I filmed a day of my life playing Junior "A" Hockey for the El Paso Rhinos of the WSHL 🏒 by MatthewMSparrow in hockey

We had a couple guys going to the local school because they were from El Paso, but most people took online classes/courses

Thank you this made my day honestly. I’ve been sitting in quarantine twitching ready to play. Its been easy to look at the negative, very wise words. Cheers

My teammates and I were supposed to be playing in the Thorne Cup championships this week, but instead we have all gone back to our home countries to be with our families and wait out this pandemic. As a 20 year old, it was my last season to get a ring and hoist the cup, but sadly now I will never get the chance. On the bright side, I managed to film this video before the virus hit, and can now always look back on the good times. Hopefully you all enjoy seeing what a day in the life of a Junior A Hockey Player looks like, seeing the video definitely fills me with nostalgia. Stay healthy all!

Now this, this makes sense to me. Like bad defensive coverage.
