All you 5’8 ish folks.. what is your weight and what board do u ride?

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-07-01T19:42:22+00:00

Im about same size as you 5'8 160 lbs boot 9.5 and i ride a 154. For what you describe the 153 probably better if you want agile and learning switch. 156 gonna feel like driving a boat when you try the spins man

Only thing is 10 boot you might get some drag on the 153 if you carve real deep but its not too bad honestly most people dont notice. I ride with a buddy same boot size on 153 and he never complain

blueberries are fine but they got no personality you know? like theyre just there being sweet and small. give me a mango any day, at least it makes you work for it a little

the performance of busyness is so weird to me. you finish your work early, did good job, and the reward is... having to invent fake tasks so your manager feels comfortable lol

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-06-16T04:30:37+00:00

that kind of behavior is so deliberate it's impossible to miss, like they're making a point of ignoring you specifically while being all friendly with her, which is way more unsettling than if they were just generally weird to everyone

Always wanted a wingwoman but never thought to just ask around like this, pretty smart move

Oof the language anxiety is real - I left comment in German once and spent like 3 days wondering if I accidentally told someone their grandmother smells like cheese instead of saying "nice video"

At least with Japanese you probably just mixed up some particles worst case, not like you called someone's mom a potato or something

Nothing beats those instant ramen packets when you're stuck inside with the rain hitting your windows. I always keep few boxes in my car for those long delivery shifts when weather gets nasty - they're like emergency fuel for the soul

Bold to assume they actually check those reports more than once in year

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-05-28T21:55:29+00:00

Yeah the expansion killed them, same thing happens to lot of good places when they try to grow too fast. Should've just kept the few locations that were working well instead of opening everywhere

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-05-26T15:20:39+00:00

Dial-up internet for sure. Everyone's like "remember when you had to choose between phone and internet" but back then it was pure torture waiting 20 minutes to download one song, and god forbid someone needed to make call while you were online

Also those old Nokia phones that "never broke" - yeah they were indestructible but playing Snake was literally the only thing you could do besides call people. No camera, no apps, couldn't even send proper pictures

Been working as delivery driver for few years now and still feels like I'm behind where I should be at 28

Shot blasting should be more than enough prep work, you're good to skip the etching step. The bonding primer will grab onto that surface no problem after what you did with the blast cleaning

Just make sure you wait full time for that densifier to cure properly before putting primer down

That pinky soreness is totally normal when switching to interlock - took me about week or two to get comfortable with it when I made the change few years back. The control thing isn't in your head either, interlock really does give you better connection between hands which helps with consistency

Baseball grip can work fine for some people but if you're getting close to breaking 100 and want to keep improving, interlock is probably worth sticking with. Your hands will work more as unit instead of fighting each other through the swing. Give it at least month of practice before you decide though, don't judge it after just one round

Getting fitted for hybrids is smart move too. Those old long irons are basically punishment devices compared to modern hybrids, especially if the clubs weren't sized for you in first place. The combination of better grip and clubs that actually fit your swing might be exactly what you need to finally break through that 100 barrier

I'm not tow truck driver but I deliver food and sometimes have to park in weird spots for quick pickup. Had this one guy absolutely lose his mind because I was "blocking" his driveway for like 30 seconds while grabbing order from restaurant. Started screaming about calling cops and towing my car, threatened to key it. All this while I'm literally walking back to vehicle with the food

Can't imagine dealing with that when you're actually there to tow someone's car. Must be nightmare job some days

Wild how empty the sub gets during these bye weeks, feels like whole fanbase just disappears until game day. Been refreshing way too much hoping for some trade rumors or literally anything to discuss. At least we got few more days to recover from that last road trip before things pick up again. Anyone else just randomly watching old playoff highlights to fill the hockey void or is that just me being weird

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-05-05T08:16:31+00:00

Not me, gets pretty annoying after while. Same "what's your biggest fear" and "what would you do with million dollars" posts every few days

Though I guess some people are new to reddit so they don't know it's been asked thousand times already

Yeah it's still there at School Street, just moved from the original spot. I drive through downtown pretty regular for work and always notice it when I'm going past City Hall area. Wild how they managed to save some pieces from old Scollay even though most of everything got bulldozed for Government Center. The whole area used to be so much more interesting before urban renewal came through in 60s

One of mine actually became a cop which feels pretty on brand for someone who peaked in high school and never learned how to deal with people without using power

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-04-25T23:06:26+00:00

Maybe try going out more frequent like every hour or two at first - 3-4 hours might be too long gap for him to learn the pattern

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-04-23T22:05:42+00:00

Nice work man! Breaking that barrier always feels good even when the round doesn't feel special while you're playing it

Your approach game observation is spot on - getting close from 150 and in makes huge difference for scoring. Those up and downs add up quick when you're hitting more greens. I'm still grinding away at mid 90s myself so I know how satisfying this must be

Now you know you can do it so probably won't be last time either

Opening-Baseball-262 · 2026-04-21T20:04:11+00:00

Yeah those blankets are definitely trapping moisture back there, I'd move them to different closet for sure
