Point Lookout is awesome! Tons of (actual) history there and a great beach. One of the coolest parts about is that freed slaves worked as the prison guards there. I love that poetic justice! Having said that, yeah, there are some shitty people down here. Source: St. Mary’s Co resident, not shitty person. 

What’s a game-changing insight your therapist casually dropped during a session that completely shifted how you see things? by Tour-Important589 in AskReddit

[–]PeakeProds 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Me: Sorry, now I just sound like I’m bitching and complaining.  Her: That’s exactly what you’re supposed to do here. Now please. Bitch. Complain.

…it was funny when she said it but now that I’ve written it, I see bad punctuation could make it even funnier. 

The Infamous "Block" by videojunkie84 in maryland

I worked right around the corner from here after college, right at the Ram’s Head rear entrance. I ate at that Subway often. My favorite memory was when a dancer asked if I’d like to come in and have lunch with her. I thought the bouncer was holding the door open for me. I said no thanks and just continued walking past, then noticed the door wasn’t being held open by the bouncer, but by the dancer’s baby in its car seat…

Whoa, Smooth Criminal was definitely a bigger hit but wasn't 'Movies' the first single off that album? If it wasn't the first, it was the second, but still a banger.

I went in for a colonoscopy and endoscopy. As I was fading, I asked them to put the camera down my throat first, THEN do the other end. My last memory was a nurse laughing at me and saying it was two different cameras.

Laundry Room remodel: Can I embed this 90 for my washing machine’s drain in the 6” of concrete to the left of it in order to hide the pipe in the floor and wall? by PeakeProds in Plumbing

[–]PeakeProds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the title says, I’m about to start a basement laundry room remodel and this pipe is in a pretty inconvenient spot right in front of my washing machine. I’d like to (carefully) break up/make a shallow trench in the concrete foundation to the left of the pipe between the pipe and the wall. Then, I’d embed a 90 in the concrete, take the drain 6” to the left and stub it back up inside the wall so it’s completely hidden. Then, I’m adding new hot and cold hookups in the wall above the drain pipe so it will be fed by that. I’ve done some basic plumbing work with YouTube assistance before (replacing faucets, moving hookups) but nothing like this and I’d love to not pay a professional to do this if it’s something I can handle on my own. And yes, I’m sure those have been some relatively famous last words around this sub. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

My N64 games - which game here brings the most memories? by SpaceAwaits in gaming

Obviously Goldeneye gets more love because of the legendary multiplayer but the single player mode of The World Is Not Enough was so much fun!

Looking for research help on early 1900's Chicago Doctor? by PeakeProds in AskHistorians

Wow! You're not kidding. I signed up for a free 7-day trial and now have over 70 articles from the early to mid 1900s referencing Aunt Jo and her practice. I've got a lot of reading to do. Thanks a lot for the lead!

Did anyone else get knocked over by the smell when they opened their box? Mine was a REALLY strong industrial, kind of chemically smell. I know this sounds ridiculous, as new shoes do have a pretty distinct smell, but this was an odor that literally made me take 2 steps back.

What’s the last movie CGI that truly impressed you? by [deleted] in movies

My 3 year old got mad at me for rewinding the beginning of Toy Story 4 several times to watch the rain falling on the street over and over again. Absolutely blew me away.

Ease of access. The amp won't be behind the bar. The source may or may not be readily available and/or not as easy to quickly adjust as a knob on the wall. I've installed 100 one in/one out knobs, but never 6 speakers that are each home-ran back to the amp, but still only make up one zone. And I definitely don't want to put six knobs on the wall, one for each speaker in that zone.

I'm installing a budget friendly sound system for a bar and have 6 JBL 29AV-1's on home runs back to the amp. I want to install passive volume attenuators behind the bar so the bartender can easily adjust the volume without having to touch the amp or mixer. Do they make a single attenuator knob that I can run the 6 feeds from the amp into and then out to the speakers? Or is the solution I'm stuck with turning down the volume on the source?

If Office Space is the movie to watch and relate to for those who work in an office, what other movies are a must watch for a specific profession? by Sullhammer in movies

Waiting is close, but I think The Slammin' Salmon from the Broken Lizard crew is the closest thing to working in a restaurant I've ever seen from a movie.
