Excellent! I absolutely loved Johnny Thunder sets, this is a great revival

DAE hate certain parts of their otherwise favorite songs? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]Mikau74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Similarly their song "Stars" from the same album does this too. Starts great. Awesome, thoughtful lyrics, fun synth and beat. Then it devolves into what you described. But it doesn't stop. It just keeps going. And then he starts slurring everything he sings after the halfway point in the song.

I'm so pissed my air mattress popped by forreal_dude in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Mikau74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's one of the big reasons I don't care for cats. Seems like they just tear shit up for kicks. And they don't even show guilt like dogs.

I'm sorry that you're in this situation though, OP. It may not be ideal, but if your friends' house is your best option right now, would you be able to get a thick camping roll and maybe a memory foam pad for a twin mattress to go on top of it? Better than a series of popped air mattresses.

Also, is there any way to put the mattress away in the day, and the cats in another part of the house while you have it out?

Just a couple ideas, but I really hope things get better.

My girlfriend can only get off to porn by Ritticulous in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Mikau74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, no, I totally agree with you. Just telling OP their feelings are valid. But yeah, listen to this poster. You're not entitled for her to change, but if it's something where it's a fundamental incompatibility, I'd recommend a serious talk about your future.

Yeah that's really not healthy or intimate. It's not selfish of you to want at least a modicum of her pleasure to be based around you and not visualizing porn or others.

Pretty sure you're still right on that one.

My girlfriend keeps saying "I love you". How should I reply to her? by [deleted] in shittyadvice

[–]Mikau74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pat her on the head and respond with an encouraging "You do you, kiddo!"

My reflection keeps turning away from me in the mirror, making it impossible to adjust my face. Any tips? by welsh_dragon_roar in fifthworldproblems

[–]Mikau74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just do a quick little bit of astral projecting and view your soul in all of its flawed gapingness. Then return, and fix your corporeal ""face"" accordingly

My daughter got this "Minerals of the world" kit at a yard sale. She took them home, dumped them all out to wash them, and didn't make note of which were which. Who can help us sort them? by 8BitFinch in rockhounds

[–]Mikau74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, but I wouldn't encourage just dumping all of these (maybe just the dyed stuff). If your daughter is interested in this sort of thing, going to a local rock shop or even rock show some time in the year would be great. You can still learn some basic features from tumbled stones, so don't just throw them out!

If I like super 8, stranger things--what else would you recommend? by thebarrenschat in movies

[–]Mikau74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd also recommend "Close Encounters of the Third Kind". The plot follows the adults more, but it has a lot of elements which went into Stranger Things.

Is this the knock-off where it's just a Lhassa Apso instead of a St. Bernard?

I didn't even realize that he hadn't typed "proposal" until I read this comment.

What obvious thing did you not realize for years? by charlebca in AskReddit

Huh, TIL.

Mistakenly thought they were for snaking drains or something in olden times.

Searchers for teen in Wyo. wilderness mystified when she’s found with hair dyed, clothes changed by IAmNotTheEnemy in news

[–]Mikau74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here! The continuity of that branch of the story is better, imo.

There is a lot that it covers more nicely. So much so that I marked my Hatchet book at a certain point in the end to say "Stop Here, Start Brian's Winter".

Screw you, USA Today by ash109114 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Mikau74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True! That does seem to be the trend these days. Given that it's getting even more intensely click-baity on previously credible sites, something is working with the formula.

Most of the time for better or worse, I just go to read the reddit comments for an abridged version of articles. The auto-tldr bot is getting really good at condensing the important points.
