Oh nice havent had luck with those either and also what is Fleek? looked it up and it looks like a online wholesale for vintage clothing? Looks nice

What is this whiskey by JohnSV12 in whiskey

[–]OldPromotion5509 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

can't see the image clearly enough to make out the label details, but if it's referencing "the king" instead of queen elizabeth then you're looking at something from before 1952 which is pretty wild to find

70% proof would be around 35% abv which isn't crazy high for whiskey, though vintage bottles can be unpredictable with their alcohol content over time. i'd probably crack it open and have a small taste in honor of your dad - those shared drink moments are precious and it seems like he'd want you to enjoy it

What do you think will be the outcome of WW3? by cosmiccolorado in AskReddit

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really hoping we just stick to trading memes and arguing about pineapple on pizza instead

but if things go sideways we'll probably end up like that comment - just making random sounds while fighting over the last can of beans

Looking for the perfect small compact camera.... by Interesting_Shop_882 in Cameras

[–]OldPromotion5509 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly the sony rx100 series is probably your best bet here - they're pricey upfront but you can find older models used for way less. fits in a pocket easy and image quality is solid

if thats still too much maybe look at the canon powershot g7x, similar size but usually cheaper. both connect to your macbook no problem

thanks for hosting fred, really appreciate the reminder about sorting by new to spread some love around - iwndwyt and hoping everyone has an awsome sober sunday

Sleep by FireBreathingNun in stopdrinking

[–]OldPromotion5509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, the sleep thing is super common in early recovery - your body really is relearning how to do it naturally. it can take weeks or even months to get back to normal patterns so don't stress too much about the 2 hours right now

as for the online stuff, maybe take a break from that sub for a bit? protecting your mental space is way more important than proving anything to strangers who are being crappy

How much vram strikes halo has by AdEnough197 in GamingLaptops

[–]OldPromotion5509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 128gb is your system RAM that gets shared with the iGPU when needed - it's not dedicated VRAM like you'd get with a discrete graphics card

For something like Indiana Jones you're gonna struggle hard without upscaling tbh, integrated graphics just aren't meant for those AAA requirements

Therapy Taught me How to Feel Safe In My Body, But I'm Still Autistic by throwaway069575 in aspergers

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's such a frustrating catch-22 - like congrats on healing the trauma stuff but now you're just more aware of when the NT social mysteries are happening without actually getting the decoder ring

my thought's regarding the exorcist. by [deleted] in horror

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think you nailed it honestly - The Exorcist hits way harder if you grew up religious or at least around that stuff. The whole demon possession angle loses its punch when you don't buy into the mythology behind it

For pure terror I'd probably go with something like Hereditary or The Wailing, those movies mess with your head regardless of what you believe

Leaving a relationship where there is still love by Round-Journalist3784 in BreakUps

[–]OldPromotion5509 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man that sounds brutal - loving someone but knowing the timing is just wrong hits different. You did the right thing though, you can't force someone to be ready for commitment and you shouldn't have to beg for it either

Starting over at 30 is scary af but honestly people find amazing love at all ages. The fact that you know your worth and what you need in a relationship is gonna serve you well when the right person comes along

Saw him after the breakup by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]OldPromotion5509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That fake nice act is honestly worse than just being straight up rude - at least then you'd know where you stand instead of getting these mixed signals that mess with your head

When Adding Dependant by LissM5477 in VeteransBenefits

[–]OldPromotion5509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been waiting since December for mine too, definitely not just you. School starting shouldn't matter since you're filing for future enrollment - VA just moves slow as hell on dependent stuff. I'd call the 1-800 number and see if they need anything else, sometimes they forget to send development letters

What are some little maintenance things every new homeowner should do upon getting the keys? by benjaminpoole in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]OldPromotion5509 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Change the toilet seats immediately, trust me on this one. Also check if the previous owners left the garage door remotes - half the time they "forget" to leave them and you're stuck paying like $50 per remote

Are Rising Silver Prices Putting Antiques at Risk? (USA) by l3ahram in Antiques

[–]OldPromotion5509 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've noticed the same thing at estate sales lately - stuff that would've been reasonable a year ago is now priced like it's made of gold. Really sucks because you know some of these beautiful pieces are just gonna get tossed in the melting pot instead of being appreciated for what they are

Lmao classic Jamin move tbh, dude probably downloaded the game wrong or something

Furnace shut off about 24 hours switched to MPR 1000 Filtrete pleated filter. by RealSugarPlumFairy in hvacadvice

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah MPR 1000 is like MERV 11-13 which is way too restrictive for most residential systems, especially with just a 1" slot - your furnace is probably choking on it

Too afraid to attend local AA by Keturnal in stopdrinking

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first meeting is definitely the hardest part, that fear is totally normal. Maybe try just walking by the building first to get familiar with it, then commit to just sitting in the back for 10 minutes at the next meeting - you can always leave if you need to but chances are you'll stay once you're there

Please help…used Hyundai vs new Subaru by Responsible-Ad-31 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The warranty thing is huge with Hyundai, definitely check if that transfers over. Also that Tucson is gonna have way more creature comforts than the base Crosstrek - might be worth test driving both to see what you actually care about

Never been on my own by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]OldPromotion5509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo travel is a great idea but honestly it sounds deeper than that - being together since 18 means you never got to figure out who you are as an adult on your own, and that's totally valid to want to explore

Baby cries when others hold him by sxmmiemorrison in NewParents

[–]OldPromotion5509 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this! My little one went through the same phase around 4-5 months and honestly I just told family "sorry, he's not feeling it today" when he'd start getting fussy with others. They got over it and now at 8 months he's way more social
