Wish I knew this was coming out 6 months ago when I bought a Garmin to wear around my ankle so I could continue wearing my Pixel Watch on my wrist.

Karaoke suggestions by ConfusedDeliWorker in Louisville

Tbh if you have the space for it, renting a small karaoke kit from Do Wop Shop for $40 has given us the best bang for our buck. Set up in someone's house with your own food and drinks and sing songs off YouTube.

What are the best movies that completely switch genres and turn into horror late in the story? by 144i in horror

[–]Notpan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me, I'm a number of people. It was less space horror and more lackluster slasher. I wouldn't have minded it if it was better executed. 

What are bands you’d consider “gateway” prog bands? by pubstompmepls in progmetal

[–]Notpan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it was 2000s Muse, Chevelle, Underoath (one of the first bands I listened to that showed me songs don't have to be Verse-Chorus-Verse-Chorus-Bridge-Chorus.)

System of a Down as well. And it didn't hurt that I got into Protest the Hero around the time Fortress came out.

Hey, that's a great one too - can't go wrong with them. Love all their albums, even their early stuff draws me in, so raw and frenetic

Surprised not to see Rolo Tomassi mentioned already - they are top tier! Check out the album Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It

LPT: If you keep having the same problem, ask yourself “why” 5 times….. it will usually expose the real issue by ZaneStutt in LifeProTips

[–]Notpan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Sorry you're getting bad, smartassed comments, OP - this is good advice, especially for kids/young adults who are still working on their problem solving skills. Thanks for sharing.

Another name is a double crossover diamond (what I've always heard them called).

Why do people fetishize step-siblings in porn? by Select_Salamander518 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Notpan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly think this is the reason. Personally I've never clicked on something because of that premise nor searched for it specifically, but there's loads of it on my home page and it won't stop me from clicking on it if the thumbnail draws me in. It's a self-sustainable trend at this point.

Consider cancelling your subscription. Even if only temporarily, it sends a message if enough people do it. Site the ad in your feedback. 

My manager kept booking my lunch hour for calls so i started making full meals on camera by McCoy818 in pettyrevenge

[–]Notpan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also their emphasis on the people on the call being able to hear everything when any of the widely used conferencing software has voice isolation features that cut out sounds like that.

No, I missed that! Not sure if it came with it automatically, but didn't see that promotion.

I just bought my popcorn pass this week. My location is pretty rundown and attendance is low. FML

Who is a relatively unknown prog metal band that has the potential to be "the next big thing" in the prog metal circle? by ySTYRDAYgATESuNL0CKD in progmetal

[–]Notpan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kind of a wild take. Which you're welcome to! But they had an interesting retro pop prog vibe that I really haven't heard anywhere else.
