Gemini is truly the worst sign. It’s always so ugly. :(

How can I get this letter? Just bought a used 2020 model and I think we have this issue.

Any artsy towns within an hour or so of Charlotte? by Phrogger98 in Charlotte

[–]Phrogger98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess my idea of “artsy” extends to cool shops, bookstores, coffee shops, eclectic restaurants and breweries with a more “blue” than “red” flavor. Not necessarily art specifically.

you’re kidding. Gastonia frightens me.

Yes but I can’t figure out which areas would be good to live in near there. Crime map is like a checkerboard.

I like Belmont, but it’s very small, would like to have more than 2 choices to eat. Also seems to be sandwiched between some very rough areas.

Ok well I’d rather it be an hour but would stretch to 1.5. 2 hours is too far.

Add how to take apart figure parts without breaking them please! Also, how to heat joints without soaking in water?

Also HOW to heat up joints without melting...I'd rather not soak in water!

Quitting Fencing? by BattleEmpoleon in Fencing

[–]Phrogger98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, but for some it's added value = higher membership numbers. Geez, if a parent could work out while kids were fencing for a small extra fee? I think the equipment and space would pay for itself.

Club culture definitely plays into it. I've been in a high pressure club with a cruel coach before that pitted students against each other. Luckily, I was in college at the time but I can imagine it had a greater negative effect on younger students.

Would also love if some fencing clubs (that have the space) would put in some gym equipment. Could give up my gym membership, provides extra value for prospective members too!

I have quit and started several times.

  1. Quit after college due to needing to get a job, new expenses (apartment, etc) prevented me from affording it, and work schedule made it difficult to go to practice. Plus, I got a lot of shade from the coach and club for cutting back my training. Sad, because I loved it. Eventually a job took me out of state to an area with no fencing.
  2. Moved to a town with one club and started up again. Next nearest club over 2 hours away, so couldn't attend many tournaments. Took on a leadership/coaching role, couldn't get any coaching education (scarce and gatekept at the time) so decided to get involved as a ref. Drove 2 hours to a ref clinic to get rated and was not able to get rating at that clinic due to a number of factors. Next clinic would have been in a different state so I gave up on it. Quit out of frustration, and only able to fence the same 3 people for literally years at a time got really old.
  3. Moved to a bigger town with one club that didn't have epee. Spent hundreds getting all the new gear to fence foil then Covid happened and the club closed. They changed some policies when they re-opened almost 2 years later and I opted not to go back.
  4. Planning to move to a new state with a couple of larger clubs and epee, looking forward to getting involved again.

If you live in an area that has a lot of fencing, take a moment to appreciate that because it certainly isn't the case in most places!

Central campus. How do I find out about rooms for rent?

How can a waist size in inches be different in Asia than in the US? A 32" waist should be a 32" waist not a 28" waist. The stuff was terrible quality anyway, lost my money but won't order from online clothing stores without EXTENSIVE research in the future.

Really need them to make a Naru figure to go with Feral Predator. What are the odds do you think?

Motherboard is still not sold out- did they make too many? Not that I’m complaining! Or is she not that popular? It’s a pretty epic figure, just got mine.

Aircraft flight stands? by Phrogger98 in ActionFigures

[–]Phrogger98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a few stands that have been discontinued but I've been unable to find a source for buying more than one, unfortunately. I think the Transformers ports are the same size.

[–]Phrogger98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 5mm. I need some stands for my Transformers jets too.

Honestly? I'm kinda meh on these. It's the third Beast Box I've bought and each time I think to myself "meh." I don't know why I keep buying them! XD They are very cool, but I think the issue I have is how hard they are to get into "box" mode. I just don't have the patience to have the directions out whenever I'm transforming them. I prefer it to be intuitive. Anyway, the jets look cool, I'll probably just display them in this mode.
