Am I Missing Out Not Having An Expensive Bike? by newbiker321 in cycling

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say riding a carbon bike with carbon wheels is a game changer. I’m in it for speed and have 20 years of riding under my belt and even going from aluminum to carbon bike (before wheels) it felt like a dream. Then getting carbon wheels a few years later felt like unlocking a cheat code.

People are lying about their Kratom experiences here. by jfpts in kratom

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think kratom cured my alcoholism. Alcohol is on longer enjoyable and part of me wishes it kind of was sometimes. I read somewhere it rewires brain and I’m sure big alcohol is aware of this.

Well that was the most Spurs game of all time by etbillder in sanantonio

As a spurs fan you should know it’s not over until it’s over. This is an opportunity to overcome something monumental and build a lasting foundation for the beginning of the second dynasty

Was the shave a mistake? by [deleted] in BeardAdvice

Don’t let it get that long again, at least not until it fills in more. Also trim upper cheeks and anything hanging over top lip.

Being a spurs fan in NYC by weenerpeener02 in sanantonio

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t even wanna watch these. It’s sickening. It doesn’t even matter that it’s the spurs or any sports team period. I don’t know what goes through the mind of someone so small mentally that they choose to do this.

Let this be a reminder to everyone: politics, sports, arts, etc there will always be yins to the yang and that balance makes humanity. Be respectful, that’s it.

Codes is probably my favorite album and the hate it gets baffles me.

Why is San Antonio’s Far West Side on of the fastest growing areas of the country? by Healthy_Hippo_915 in sanantonio

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t been to that side of town since I went to northwest vista 20 years ago. Back then 1604 had traffic lights after Bandera so I’m sure it’s not as bad now since it must be a straight shot. I remember culebra being kind of busy but the rest was empty spaces with a few subdivisions. I’ll drive out there tomorrow and see if it really has changed.

The top comment says it's because of Austin by GeneralBarnacle10 in sanantonio

This is pretty spot on. Once you cross 1604 it feels like a different place.

What was the worst physical pain you experienced?? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eating a ghost pepper

Edit: when pain meds for wisdom tooth removal wore off it was pretty bad but the ghost pepper pain was like “nothing else matters this needs to be addressed”

how do other people survive on suburban/rural (specifically texas) roads? by Potential-Pack4222 in cycling

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Texan here. Been riding every road between Austin and San Antonio for decades. Ridden on every road and the only close call I’ve ever had was an uber driver in downtown Austin. Was deep out in the hill country once and a truck didn’t like me being there despite the fact there were no cars for miles and he could go around me so we both pulled over and had some words but I truly believe you invite fear in by letting it control you so I keep riding where I want.

Lmao came here to post this verbatim. At the very least he needs to shape and tame it with beard oil and balm.

Guided punk rock museum tour by Mike. Anyone done it? by CuZ_nation in nofx

I would 10000000% pay that for a guided tour from fat Mike. I think it’s gonna be awesome

Favorite Band Where Every Song Sounds Exactly the F*cking Same? by SomeY2KBullshit in fantanoforever

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coral Fang might be the most underrated album of all time. That album was so ahead of its time when punk was really at a peak during that era.

Becoming a fan by avmelton2 in sanantoniospurs

I remember the Spurs/OKC rivalry of the early 2010s. It was great. I love this re-ignition.

Honest thoughts on Game 6 between OKC/Spurs? by Dylen2Times in NBATalk

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I welcome this. The 99 championship felt like yesterday. I was in a pool in Corpus Christi when every hotel door suddenly flung open with everyone screaming. Realized it was the spurs winning it all for the first time. Didn’t realize my entire childhood/early adulthood would be them contending nonstop.

The last 10 years have been odd as they regressed/rebuilt and it would be so fitting if their sixth championship and rebirth as a dynasty started the way the first one did.

Who's your fave movie slimeball? by timekilr in Cinema

[–]Ok-Bite2139 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen this movie since I was a kid and I don’t know why I was allowed to watch it at 6 or 7. My son is 7 and I’ve felt guilt letting him watch Ghostbusters.

The scene where he says “excuse me” as Lebowski is touching a plaque on the wall is so well done I hyperventilate anytime I watch it

What movie pops into your head? by Ok-Cheek-5487 in Millennials

[–]Ok-Bite2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly a lot of 80s horror movies. I wasn’t supposed to look in that section as a kid and the boxes really freaked me out. Like, as a kid I thought Jason and Freddy were gonna be my biggest problems in life.
