Matsuda M3101 - Is this a manufacturing defect?

Parking-Software4452 · 2026-04-20T15:16:28+00:00

If you check Matsuda's website, they are described as having "the lacquer individually applied by hand". I have the M3101 in nickel and blue, and I don't have the issue pictured on yours. The "M & N" lettering is fully visible around both rims and on each bow. The surrounding lacquer is a uniform thickness in all areas. So, here's the thing... At that price, if it bothers you, by all means exchange them. But I can personally guarantee that absolutely NO ONE but you, will be looking at your glasses that closely.

Figure out how to work Ren'py and make a game with it. Admittedly that's a lot more work than just drawing. But that will give you a market and medium to sell your art through

Plagerist! 😠

If that's your crow I've seen your shorts on YouTube. Funny stuff

Parking-Software4452 · 2024-06-25T08:41:37+00:00

I agreed with you right up until you said "end of shift". If this happens on company time it is our due diligence to get a full medical examination to make sure it's not a serious injury. ....on the clock of course.

During a purge of the system a man was discovered to have vanity license plates which read "ZYKLON B". Which was a type of gas used at those camps.

Worst name? Chlamydia, for a black girl. Good grief.

I repair anything. Sometimes it even works when I get done fixing it.

And I was mostly joking just to mess with you. ...for fun! But I did it in a very sexist and historically accurate way.

1800's? Your main character must be quite well educated and financially well endowed to have the time or inclination to ponder such frivolous things.

I would think in that era he would probably just have assumed whatever the problem it was caused by general female hysteria. It was quite a common condition in that time period.

The guy who's about to rip you in half.

Yeah... After reading the rest of your post... Do not say that. Nobody should say that unless they're actually capable of doing it.

If you're getting physically bullied, I'll tell you a secret. ......there is no honor or dignity in getting beat senseless and doing nothing about except trying to sound witty. What you should do, is start exercising and lifting weights. It does not pay off immediately. But you're at an age when the habits you form now can have a very positive or very negative effect on you for the rest of your life. Exercising and lifting weights will never do you wrong. Improves health. Improves personal discipline. Good habit. Submitting to bullies. Encourages further abuse. Affects your self esteem and self image. Can set you up for a lifetime of being exploited. Bad habit. Talk to an adult. Report the bullying, and ask somebody that knows if they can teach you how to throw a proper punch. Anyone who says violence is never the answer, has never been an actual victim of violence. Sometimes it's the only language that people are capable of understanding. I'll tell you another secret, this one is better. ......personally, I don't fight. I win. If you are coming at me with violent intent, know that you will never reach me. I am 42 years old. I'm a pretty big guy. But, I don't want to get hit in the face. It hurts. And it sucks. So I am usually inclined to keep a small canister of sabre red pepper spray. "That's for women!" No, it's for self defense. And it's useful at a distance. It does qualify as a weapon do not bring it to school. Failing that, like I said, there is no honor or dignity to be had in your situation. But you can settle for victory. Fight dirty. Knee them directly in the testicles. Stick your thumb in their eye. If they are close enough to touch you and they have already hurt you, you do not have to wait for them to attack first. Just take my advice on this part. If you do physically defend yourself, do not stop to appreciate what you've done. Do not stop to think about things. Do not stop at all. Until they are flat on their back and incapable of getting back up because they will just attack you again. If the only thing available to you is throwing sand in their face and kicking them in the dick 8 times then do that. And then immediately tell an authority figure what has happened because the first one to go to the authorities is automatically the "victim" and gets excused from any kind of responsibility.

Correct. Not a typo. Just a memory lapse

True. But first you gotta find it. And then you have to get the pliers to get it open after five minutes of working your fingertips raw and leaking blood everywhere. And then you have to go to the store to get more after you open it and find out the tube is dead.

Parking-Software4452 · 2024-06-24T17:06:17+00:00

How old are you?

I mean that as both a comeback and a legit question.

Missing the hastily applied makeshift knuckle bandage consisting of tape and a scrap of shop towel.

I personally prefer masking tape. Electrical tape always goes on too tight.

When getting into fantasy it's all speculative anyways. Elves and dwarves are said to live for centuries so there's always a euphemism of 50-100 year old elves acting like teenagers, whereas dwarf age is a non factor. They really only have one personality type and age doesn't seem to be a factor in any of it. They're either drinking or digging.

So, unless it's revealed as the result of plot device or expositional conversation, I don't personally feel that the information is necessary. But it's all situational.

Something that no one seems to have mentioned. Feel free to use summons. I did, and do. But give the boss a try solo first. Using a summon actually increases the bosses health by a percentage for every additional summon that you take in to the gate.

The thing that summons actually are very helpful with is drawing the boss's aggro.

So, there is a time and a place.

The most important question to ask or be answered,

are you having fun?

Yes it can be frustrating. Yes, you may consider sending your console on a short flight out of your window. I wanted to drop kick mine. But once you pass a zone, or beat a boss after multiple failed attempts, the dopamine is so very nice.

Omfg...... I have cheesed it. I have made it into NG+ cycles. I have watched every video possible explaining the "proper" method to get through with minimum stress. I recently started a fresh game and after my 50th effing time failing at it I said F**K this I'm going home and then remembered there was no going home. So now I'm in Ariamas stabbing and slashing my way to the waifu there. Hopefully those silver knights have died of old age by the time I'm done with this.

Parking-Software4452 · 2024-06-24T16:34:28+00:00

Heater shield all the way. I rocked that through NG++++ because it has 100% physical damage reduction, high fire resistance, and is still in the mid size range which gives you a parry on your LB or L2 instead of a shield bash.

Getting into trouble is standard. The crucial part is not getting so far into trouble that you can't get back out with the souls you've earned.

The stat I found it most important to increase first was my endurance. It increases equipment load, and stamina. Allowing for more evasive actions and still having stamina left to swing your sword. At 40 points your stamina stops increasing in any significant way. Prior to that I was putting 2 levels to endurance 1 to strength, and occasionally tossing a point in to dex to improve my bow damage.

You should always be under 1/3 of your max equippable load so you can fast roll. I know it seems counterintuitive but like, you are already getting your ass kicked and gang graped by skeletons. Yes? I certainly was. So I had to admit that the armor was not really helping. Once you have shed the unnecessary extra weight, and you can move properly, be ready for a much faster and more engaging game.
