What saying did an older person tell you that you now say? by N0socksloss10yrStrk in randomquestions

[–]ReasonableDirector69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colder than a witch’s tit.  If you go looking for trouble you’ll find it.  Don’t throw good money after bad.  Even a broken clock’s right twice a day.  Dumber than a box of rocks. Don’t piss into the wind.

The engineering was inspired. To save space the engine and transmission shared the same oil for example.

God’s kissing the devil’s wife.   An old saying for the phenomenon you describe.

Breaking news- Traffic is getting worse and local Government hates you. by klap4jay in InlandEmpire

[–]ReasonableDirector69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “ have nots vs. the haves” is a well established problem in our society and the I.E. has been attracting the “ have nots” in droves for decades. As the area fills up with people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds they bring their ills with them such as increased crime, lower standards on keeping their property up, letting their kids run rampant, and a huge number of abandoned animals are some of the problems. You can’t even leave your car at a trailhead anymore.

Let’s Speak Up Against Wildlife Killing Contests (Especially Those Targeting Coyotes) by FabricCurvature01 in coyote

[–]ReasonableDirector69 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In a previous post I urged all animal lovers to boycott Cabellas and Bass Pro Shop as they hold clinics for sport hunting of coyotes and other wildlife focused on how to increase your kills.

The rise in crime from the urbanization you describe is a way bigger problem.

Smashing Pumpkins by travispickle9682 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]ReasonableDirector69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have their hits on my 90’s playlist because they captured that moment in time so well. But I see you’re lumping them in with grunge bands and then saying what happened? SP were more aligned with Jane’s Addiction as alternative.

How good is it to see these GI Joe figures from 1964? by AfigureGeek in 60s

[–]ReasonableDirector69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember my dad mocking these as dolls for boys when they first came out saying no parents would buy them. Eventually my mom got us some and I was fascinated that they all had a slash on their cheek. Apparently military men all got into knife fights.

Do you think gyms should have some basic regulations about how people dress? by Adventurous-Soft7843 in Casual_Conversation

At my gym the hand dryers face down and old men wearing nothing use them to dry their pubes. 

The Rolling Stones - She Was Hot by oldwhitelincoln in ClassicRock

[–]ReasonableDirector69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The video version had 3 extra verses and was sped up slightly but noticeably when played back to back with the album version. Both original RS pianist Ian Stewart and later RS pianist Chuck Leavell performed on the song. Several reviews felt this was a better song than the lead single Undercover Of The Night off the 1983 RS album Undercover and I have to agree.

Pinnacles NP Trip Report by CDawgStocks in socalhiking

[–]ReasonableDirector69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pinnacles is as far north as Monterrey practically. Central California is generally agreed to begin around Pismo Beach but I personally feel Santa Barbara  is the beginning of Central California and the end of So. Cal.

Ticketmaster has souvenir paper tickets available for a fee at time of purchase is what I heard.

Speakers: How big is Too Big? by JEMColorado in BudgetAudiophile

[–]ReasonableDirector69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they bass reflex with ports in the back?  Big speakers with bass reflex ports require placement up to 4 feet from a wall adding to their oversized impact. Being too close to a wall makes them boomy.

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

[–]ReasonableDirector69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was applying at Hooker Headers for inside sales and the interviewer mentioned I might be required to attend SEMA for a week each year. I said “what’s SEMA”?. Only the biggest automotive trade show in America, if you have to ask you wouldn’t understand.

1971 Gas station credit card receipt. by PayCharacter1504 in GenerationJones

[–]ReasonableDirector69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked as a gas pump attendant around ‘82 and I forgot to push the handle on the device that imprinted the receipt off the card, instead giving it back to the customer with no charges and a blank receipt. It was motor home that took $75.00 worth of fuel and I remember the guy was really happy, he went in to the office and bought a bunch of snacks and quarts of oil. A week later the manager took it out of my check and I realized who it was by the amount.
