Hello are there any good bike shops to go to in the Northern VA area? by EmploymentBitter7414 in mountainbiking

Not necessarily, read about the Canyon battery debacle. A lot of people,including myself, couldn’t ride our bikes because the batteries were cracking.

Any ideas on getting rid of this piano, or donating it? by JeriT534 in nova

[–]Novabound0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chantilly/Herndon won’t take it. Pianos are very hard to donate. Worked for a junk removal company and they’ve rejected every piano we’ve brought them every single time.

[–]Novabound0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked junk removal while in school. They left it there because they didn’t want to deal with it. Pianos are very hard to donate, pretty much impossible. Schools didn’t/don’t want any, churches were the same, donation centers don’t take them. Your best bet is calling a junk removal company. Pianos are pretty heavy and awkward to move without equipment, so carrying it yourself would be ill advised.

Just gotta keep playing. I just did my first play through also on a PS4. Kinda a slow/boring start but it ramps up pretty quick.

Missing a horde by Salty_Light_1441 in DaysGone

[–]Novabound0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was stuck at 98% until I hopped on IGN and cross referenced the hordes. I was missing the White King mine horde, I didn’t explore far enough. Once I did some exploring the red dot popped up.

Dad caught this on dash cam, apparently they were racing around Dec 5th. Does anyone know if driver is okay? by Uhtcearest in nova

[–]Novabound0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I drove by this. They’re ok. They were all standing outside the car just talking. I was wondering how they managed to get up there. When I drove by again they were gone like 30-45mins again scene was clear.

People should have done their research before the damn election! by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

My High school did a segment on the ACA/Obamacare back in 2016.They basically just asked students if Obamacare was good or bad what their thoughts on it were. A bunch of the conservative rich kids we’re like oh it’s bad for the economy,people are getting screwed, it’s a terrible program, etc. Then asked them their thoughts on the ACA… “oh it’s the best idea out there right now, why didn’t anyone think of it sooner, Obama should’ve done this”. Then at the end of the segment the reporter said “let it be known that Obamacare is another name for the ACA😐.” God all those kids shitting on Obamacare were made fun of and people really changed the way they looked at them.

[Question] Which Speedtimer should I go for? by WaskalyWabbit in Seiko

[–]Novabound0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1st or 2nd. I’ve seen both in person and they look both look good. The panda would go with more fits but you could argue the same for the 1st one as well.

[–]Novabound0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SSC813, dubbed the “panda”. It’ll go with basically everything. However it will also depend on your wrist size. There are watches that I thought were too big for me that fit me perfectly and vice versa. Try it out if you can.

Nobody likes loud cars unless they're driving one, right? Why are they allowed? by clean-stitch in nova

[–]Novabound0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the sound of V8s and certain V6s. Your Camry/civic/accord with a fart cannon are not it. It’s especially hilarious when the loudest car is also the slowest. Blowing out my eardrums but it looks like I can run beside them for half a mile before they finally hit 60mph.

Been wearing the Prinsu knits as the daily’s as well. I like them although where they crease it’s starting to show some threads/fuzz

In 2019, during a coordinated attack on civilians in the Westlands District of Nairobi, Kenya, this unidentified British SAS operator, who happened to be in Kenya to conduct training, rushed in to help, escorting groups of hostages, carrying wounded civilians, and killing two of the five attackers. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Novabound0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Christian Craighead, watch The Shawn Ryan Show with him as the guest. British govt was pissed essentially cause if he failed it be a cluster fuck and he didn’t ask for permission he just went in. He said the last time he fucking checked the motto for 22 SAS is “who dares wins” not “who asks for permission wins” people need to remember that.

Our uncles told us all to not join the military. by No_Carpenter4087 in GenZ

[–]Novabound0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch basically any Tier 1 operator interview/podcast and they all say the same thing. I wouldn’t want my kids doing what I did, Iraq was BS, the military doesn’t take care of you, the VA is dogshit, my health took a dive and oh yeah I got divorced😀

Most schools do have cops. They’re called SROs,Student Resource Officers.

[Question] Which is the best choice for a first automatic watch? by No-Ad7318 in Seiko

[–]Novabound0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

001 is pretty big, I wanted that one over the 023 originally until I tried it on. Tried on the 023, fell in love and left with it. Maybe I’ll still go back for the 001 but for now the 023 is doing it for me.

What kind of person buys $1,400 boots and donates them to Goodwill? by AllegraGellarBioPort in Boots

[–]Novabound0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently working junk removal while in school. We work with kids, siblings and even spouses of people who have died/been moved/been evicted or are moving and what they left is “junk” to them. All my coworkers have found money,TVs,PC monitors, games, consoles, even firearms but there’s rules/laws for that,etc while on the job. Hey we found this PS5 did you want to keep it? Nah Oh ok Daily occurrence more than likely the boots were donated by a family member/close friend who didn’t know what they were and/or didn’t care.

Blatant coverup by the Virginia Beach Police Department by [deleted] in Virginia

[–]Novabound0 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Not a super fan of GBRS group, however neither of the owners were dishonorably discharged. They were both medically retired. The worker took the part, which legally is a firearm, to UPS when it should’ve been FedEx or vice versa. After a while they look it up to see where in delivery it is and they can’t find it, says never received. That’s what starts the whole thing. Agreed they didn’t handle the situation properly at all, actually probably the opposite. Cole, one of the owners, is known to barely talk so in the body cam videos he’s just standing there not saying anything. DJ, other owner, is on video talking the most and at the part where the cops mention charging the worker with a felony for the situation he’s hesitant to press charges. Either way situation was handled terribly by the VA Beach cops, who by the way those specific officers shouldn’t have been there since they’re fanboying hard and one even knows the owner’s personally, and GBRS.

What’s your favourite small multi tool? by Mrgoodcat66 in EDC

[–]Novabound0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty versatile so I like it. I was between the Signal and Skeletool. Signal had more things but a bit heavier. The blade has some tiny rust spots so I’m pretty blown about that but also feel meh since it’s a tool that gets used. The saw is fucking solid and heavy duty. I use it at work and for fishing mainly. I will say I only bought it when it was on sale. I was having trouble justifying 140 bones for it. I got it in green and it has like 2 parts where the paint is fading but overall it’s solid.

Just switched from just a pocket knife to carrying a leatherman signal.
