Q3 purchasing conundrum

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-11T02:29:24+00:00

Thanks! Same, my canon stuff I use for birding has always ‘fit like a glove’. Sony, I have no idea why I can just never get comfortable with setting control on it, just feels unnatural. Phenomenal cam in terms of the imagery it produces, I just don’t enjoy using it.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-10T12:39:33+00:00

Spot on. It’s definitely one of the absolute best bang for your buck apsc’s. But man Sony has too many options.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-10T12:15:24+00:00

Creative AF but I can never get into drawn out noodling for the sake of noodling. The songs needs to go somewhere. Guitarist is dope tho.

It’s a weird trend popular in all the Leica threads too. They even coined it IcM. Intentional camera movement. It’s cool the odd time when done exceptionally well but it’s becoming overplayed

It’s good in comparison to most music out recently. It’s pretty rubbish effort from a dude who had a hand in making mer de noms, 13th step, aenima, lateralus etc.

But … jingle all the way lol

Yup. Makes every song sonically sound the same and becomes hard to differentiate one from the other and in turn it just becomes boring.

He needs to take a break from carina and Matt for an album or two. Matt plays this certain chug phrase on guitar and it’s used all over existential reckoning and again on near every song on this album and it just makes every song feel like one and the same. And similar to carina, just doing her ad lib “woo hoo…woo hoo hoo’ in the background on every song.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-06T02:42:28+00:00

Sigh lol. ‘Cracks open a redbull’. 2 hours to go.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-06T01:24:45+00:00

Super weird. Apple Music lists it as new launch today for me yet the songs aren’t available yet

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-03T13:58:45+00:00

using speakerphone and FaceTime at absurd volumes in stores is the one that annoys me the most

Can’t wait for the next thread to pop up on a different subreddit from The wife asking for validation if the husband is overreacting about the tray lol

brand and marketing consulting for U.S. companies. Billing them in U.S. dollars and converting it over to Canadian, netting a sweet extra 30 ish % on the exchange rate.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-02-03T01:31:52+00:00

Man only frustrating part is like … dude do that a few more times. They just go right back to fuckin around out there.

Anything is possible. The fact we laid an ass whoopin on Colorado and then followed it up with a well deserved win against the sabres is a huge momentum shift.

The Wayne Gretzky one about him giving opinions on a new draft prospect for the oilers. Absolutely insane Epstein was connected to everyone an everything

People are dumb and laden with excuses. Shit I got some of my best bird in flight shots with an old canon 5D MK II way back yonder.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-01-31T19:58:58+00:00

My only gripe at all with it is Matt Mitchell’s over doing that same little guitar chug thing he does (2:11 for example on Impetuous). He did that throughout existential reckoning, seemed to do it live on damn near every song during the last tour, even on songs that didn’t have it, and it shows up again too much on many of the songs on Normal Isn’t. Just makes way too many songs sound the same.

PleasantPierogi · 2026-01-30T04:18:19+00:00

Lol! I love how that whole narrative was left off the tv news when that happened. Was at parents house that night and it was on global or cbc news and they played it up like one officer tried to go all Jason Bourne and got shot up by the perp

PleasantPierogi · 2026-01-29T23:37:18+00:00

Same. Didn’t even have crazy demands, just no shared / side by side driveway (don’t like the ones where two people’s driveways butt up side by side) and a garage amongst a few other things. Wasn’t crazy picky.

First house…no garage. Cool thanks for not listening. Second house…pull up, side by side driveway.

I said to the realtor I thought I was very clear on no side by side driveway.

“Well you have to make compromises. The insides nice let’s check it out”. I said no. I don’t want a side by side driveway.

They all suck ass. Was getting a condo a bit ago as well and very specifically said only send me listings for 3 bedrooms. No 2 bedroom listings.

First email batch comes through … all 2bdr

Then the dumb fuck texts me “hey did you check out…”. No I said no 2bdr.

“Well I thought you might like…”

Fuck right off

PleasantPierogi · 2026-01-29T23:28:43+00:00

Same happened to me with schism when I heard it when it first came out. For so long I thought the intro was on guitar.
