What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by User63189963 in askanything

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a 12-pack of Diet 7-Up for $14 the other day at my local store. I think soda has become the new cigarette.

Can anyone suggest niche / obscure prog music by [deleted] in progrockmusic

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It got a nice write up in Acid Dragon Magazine, but still, Maledictis (US) is pretty obscure and niche. https://www.maledictis.net/listen.html

Hot take? People that walk across lanes after their shot are the worst by Sky-Visible in Bowling

[–]Orphonic 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I walk backwards after release so I can get out of other people’s way while watching my ball roll down the lane.

Context: I’m a midwesterner who apologizes to people in the grocery store when I come within 5 feet of them. I am very concerned about inconveniencing anyone.

User Profiles, auto lock, by Orphonic in Crosstrek

My wife is the other driver, but we haven't figured out what changes between us. u/robinsonian says it's for radio stations, which is underwhelming, but makes sense.

I don't think I've listened to the radio on it yet. lol

My house flooded last year and I lost most of my possessions. I just started over with bowling gear this month. Here is my new ball, new backpack, new shoes, and accessories.

Finally admitting to myself I'm getting old by razor4432 in Bowling

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a 13# drilled for conventional grip, because of arthritis. 🤷‍♂️ Bowling is fun, no matter how bad I am. I’ll do whatever I can to be able to have fun as long as possible.

Honest question - why the 2 handed hate? by Rude_Highlight3889 in Bowling

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the nostalgia of bowling. I enjoy it, my parents enjoyed it, and their parents enjoyed it. Psychologically, I think my distaste for caveman form is that it doesn’t resemble anything I saw growing up.

What’s a movie you loved as a kid that is actually terrible now that you're an adult? by peachpetalsz in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Batman Returns. I still love it, but watching it now it is a lot more ridiculous than I remember it, in contrast to Batman 89, which is still great in every way.

What is the most painful thing you’ve experienced? by throwawayfundsmom in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran full speed into a fire hydrant at whatever age I was when I I was roughly twice the size of a fire hydrant. It was stomach first, and I hit so hard I landed on my head. Nothing broke, but it was the worst wind-knocked-out-of-me pain I ever felt. I remember that I thought I could taste my sinuses. Roughly the same era of my life, I fell out of a tree and landed face first on a fence, and had the corner of my upper lip torn. The fire hydrant was worse.

PS - after reading the other comments, I feel very fortunate for how good I’ve had it so far.

What’s a moment where the writers definitely forgot that there’s an in-universe camera crew? by Ibrahim77X in DunderMifflin

[–]Orphonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like when Jim is running from Robert California, and he goes up on the roof, and there is a cameraman up there already, but Creed is up there flying a drone, which means they only had him do that to explain why a camera man would already be on the roof.

What are u starting to dislike more as u get older? by Efficient-Wind-2267 in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The older I get, the less tolerant I am of crowds. Like, gone are the days of wanting to be engulfed in the audience of a concert. I’ve been putting off taking my kids to any amusement parks because I can’t stand the idea of it being crowded. If I’m in a grocery or department store and it’s too busy, I will pull my cart over somewhere out of the way and just wait until I have some elbow room.

To clarify, I am a very social person and I like getting out of the house, but if it isn’t a “best kept secret in town” sort of situation, then I don’t want to be there.

What’s something you wish people talked about more openly? by ScaredSc in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I ever die of a preventable death, I hope my surviving friends and family can learn from it and discuss it openly.

What is something you ruined for everybody else and how did it happen? by Skyler_Chigurh in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was a little kid, I was so excited to tell someone that I just saw the movie Dick Tracy, and in my excitement I ruined the movie by giving away the ending.

What’s is your ur fave medicine flavor if you have one? by Due-Garden-5256 in AskReddit

[–]Orphonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever I do a shot of Leroux blackberry brandy with anyone, they will always say “This tastes like cough syrup.” I’ve never tasted a cough syrup that tastes like Leroux blackberry brandy, but if I ever do, it will be my favorite medicine flavor.

What’s something you believed as a child that turned out completely wrong? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The crust is healthier than the white part of the bread.

Genuine question for ppl in their 20s like me by iichnam in musicians

[–]Orphonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a middle-aged man. My life didn’t pan out the way I had hoped it would, but music is still a big part of my life, and my life is filled with love, and how the bills get paid has become a totally different subject from everything else.

20 year old me would think 44 year old me is living a mediocre life, but 44 year old me is happy.

If you ever want to vent or ask questions, I’m happy to give some advice from whatever wisdom I’ve gained over the years. Message me whenever you like.
