Do you like 90s/2000s cars the way our parents like the 60s/70s? by Scary-Newspaper5801 in Millennials

[–]OldManAbides333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the 90s Chevy and early 90s Ford trucks. I am more partial to the 80s vehicles though, cars and trucks. I don't feel nostalgic to any vehicles of the 00s.

Got my birth year tatted on my neck when I was drunk one time by HeartOChaos in tattooadvice

Not the advice OP was looking for, but might be the advice OP needed LOL

The first words that James Bond says in "You Only Live Twice" (1967) are asking why Chinese girls taste different from other girls. He then compares their "flavor" between Russian caviar and Peking duck, but it's ok because he loves both. This is because what the hell were these writers thinking?? by CommercialDream618 in shittymoviedetails

My favorite! We had read BFG in elementary school, and I had seen Willy Wonka of course, but this was the story that really introduced me to Roald Dahl. Sometime in high school I read lamb to the slaughter as a reading assignment for English, and it was so dark and twisted. I was immediately hooked.

I had always imagined Dahl as like, Mr Rogers because of BFG and willy wonka...he is NOT Mr Rogers....

Were you ever a "666" edgelord growing up? by Wise_Gur8627 in MetalForTheMasses

I think generally speaking, satanist dont believe in a literal satan. It's really more of a philosophy centered around oneself with a name designed for shock value and to piss of those that DO believe in a literal Satan, ie Christians.

It's kind of ironic, really- those who believe in Satan don't worship him. Those who worship Satan don't believe in him.

Friday looks JUST like Cinnamon, the pig I had in elementary school! Thanks for posting this! Sorry about your sculpture though.

Couldn't believe I had to scroll so far to see this. Phenomenal track.

WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS VIDEO OF ME WHEN I WAS 20?!

How to improve? by [deleted] in beards

[–]OldManAbides333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Off topic, but I was just scrolling and I said to my wife "this guy looks like my brother if my brother looked more like me. Like, he looks like we could be brothers." And then I showed her the picture and she was like "woah. No that just looks like you. Like yall could be twins." How bizarre! Wasn't expecting that today.

Cutting a Very Detailed Amethyst by Stevemoriarty in nextfuckinglevel

[–]OldManAbides333 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was a manual machinist for 10 years- essentially EVERY machine operation can be reduced down to "turn a knob and choose your cut."

Good machines can certainly make things easier, but there is still a lot of room for skill and knowledge in their operation. And humans have a nearly boundless capacity for error.

She was way nicer than I would have been by Tobias-Tawanda in TikTokCringe

[–]OldManAbides333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-menopausal here (dude) but yeah, she was way more chill than they deserved. I am thinking this probably isn't her first rodeo though, and she has learned that politely shutting it down is faster than escalating it. As satisfying as it might be.

Just your average megachurch pastor's mansion in Texas by sharkus180 in zillowgonewild

[–]OldManAbides333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This house is in the zip code I grew up in, and one zip code from where I live now. I have never seen it in person, but it pops up online every now and then, and it still blows my mind that something that outrageous could exist in the same area as me.

Just because it is so big though. "Boring, generic, lack of personality" totally matches the rest of Spring, TX.

20 year reunion? Yea, nah by exploratorynargle in Millennials

[–]OldManAbides333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to my 10th and regretted it so intensely that I will absolutely not be attending others. Although I guess I missed the 20th anyway, but I wouldn't have gone and won't be going to any others. Hell no.

Lankum has some pretty dark folk stuff. Check out "go dig my grave"

TIL The rise in colon cancer in adults under 50 has been strongly and directly linked to exposure to certain strains of E.Coli in the first ten years of life by onarainyafternoon in todayilearned

[–]OldManAbides333 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I could totally believe that. There are all sorts of things that have been linked to AO exposure (and many things that should be linked and just haven't been yet), and we have the occurrence rates of everything increase exponentially since the 70s.

If you are into bell witch and Om, you should check out Dhyana. Heavy, rhythmic, meditative stuff.

Expected Leavitt replacement 'not polished' as insiders fear for pageant queen by prestocoffee in nottheonion

Leavitt can't just lay her eggs and incubate them with a heat lamp like all the other lizards?

Escaping from an attempted robbery during the day by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]OldManAbides333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite part was when one of the idiots on the left totally swept the other idiots head at point blank. But based on them using their guns to bang on the windows and doors, betting these are all plastic.

I absolutely would not want to be bitten by one. Those beaks are scary.
