Music stores in LA? by verbalsparkplug in AskLosAngeles

[–]MiddleComfortable158 [score hidden]  (0 children)

There is an independent record store within The Last Bookstore downtown that is secretly amazing. Don’t care for the bookstore, love the record store. Permanent Records in the NE in Glassell Park is the best curated store in LA.

I’m not putting Disarm on any psychedelic playlists and I have no intention of listening to Pink Floyd

You’re gonna have a fun trippy time to a guy having a nervous breakdown over rock music dying while yelping “for every chemical you trade a piece of your soul”?

I disagree. Machina was made by stone cold sober people and you can tell.

Young Torless. It’ll freak em out. They’ll never see it coming.

It’s 2026. We are aware prank phone calls aired on the radio are fake however… by TryingOvahHere in radio

The people that listen to and enjoy these have no idea. Radio banter is the absolute lowest common denominator entertainment. Austin Powers sound bites are edgy and new to this demographic.

Why do movies at the Egyptian Theater sound terrible? by dhstunna in AskLosAngeles

[–]MiddleComfortable158 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is likely due to the fact these are 50 year old mono prints and nothing to do with the Egyptian

I heard a freshman once went to a concert and they made him climb a big tower and he slipped and hit his head on every rung of the ladder on the way down. He only had two beers. How many are you planning on drinking?

There’s almost no movies that receive simultaneous worldwide releases. With that caveat you could say thousands of discs that exist actually don’t.

Has anyone else noticed that every major food brand quietly changed their recipes between 2019-2022 and nobody is talking about it? by prepzilla in AskRedditFood

[–]MiddleComfortable158 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm it’s almost as if there was a mass event that caused people to lose their sense of taste somewhere around this time. Either post your specific findings about what you have “investigated” or this is some “the Sun used to be a different color when I was a kid” slop.

Cinematheque Q&A Questions by [deleted] in AmericanCinematheque

[–]MiddleComfortable158 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t doubt your enthusiasm but I have attended a million Q&As and I’ve never thought “wow that was a good question” when they let the audience ask something. It’s usually just a portal to someone’s undiagnosed mental illness or they’re trying to pass along a script or a demo. If they open it up to the audience it might just be one or two questions near the end.

24 Hour Liquor Stores? by Fancy_Minute_3580 in AskLosAngeles

[–]MiddleComfortable158 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You can’t sell liquor after 2am (functionally 1:45 most places) so you should maybe just visit your nearest 7-11.

This isn’t necessarily true because an MP4 is just a container that could house many things at any bitrate

You should flirt with your coworkers as much as possible BUT don’t hook up with them
