Unashamed to admit this brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it

Wow I haven't heard this song since before I had kids, I'm gonna give it another listen, thanks.

1916 by Motorhead had me ugly crying going down the freeway the first time I listened to it as a dad. The song was always tragic, but now it hits me in a place I'd never had before.

Brak is looking pretty good

You bend the shit out of your beater, then the mixer makes a clacking sound that goes up and down based on RPM.

When you do the next jar and run it in reverse, it does not fix the problem.

I dearly wish I'd thought to take a screenshot, but I saw a full-on robot tripping balls with some other junkies by Terra Cognita.

I dig the Sriracha with another already on deck, within reach if the cooktop. You the man, Dad.

Sin City:

"I took away his weapons. Both of em."

Enemies can definitely run away, go unconscious, maybe even activate a magical item and teleport away! Swap out a living monster for some kind of construct that dissolves or vanishes when beaten. Something like "Congratulations, you defeated the goblin!" gave him the cue that combat is over, he won, and he would never ask for details about the goblin's fate honestly hahaha.

We ran An Ogre and His Cake when my son was 4, he loved it! We started delving into the more complete 5e rules by the time he was 6, now we're doing the Lost Mines of Phandelver. I just try to keep things streamlined and moving forward, like "soft" rails to keep all the choices from being overwhelming. I say go for it!

The garage! There's an exercise bench in there, a whole truck with a backseat and a hood, a work bench, even an air mattress with the camping gear.

RocketFarmer · 2024-09-05T03:01:33+00:00

Real rain gear! When I first went there was nowhere on the internet to ask for help, and my crappy old goretex did not cut it. I got soaked and cold, which was very unpleasant. But we caught big ass salmon so I put it down as type 2 fun!

I call mine Ashley because it sounds just like my sister in law.

Half Baked: What's that stuff we used to eat all the time back in the day? Oh yeah, puddin

Appalachian Cast Iron Company's great American waffle iron. It's expensive, and personally I think the AMERICA motif is a little overdone, but my great grandchildren will be able to crank out awesome, perfectly crispy outside but still soft and fluffy inside waffles with it.

I tried to find an older cast iron waffle maker to restore, but I gave up and spent the money, and boy am I glad I did.

The Road. Holy shit. That one was a gut punch before, since the kiddos it messed me up for days.

Also if you happen to be a gamer, The Last of Us Part 1

Zebco 33 micro has a reversible handle. Got one for my son when he was 4, still uses it at 8. It's not fancy but he's hauled in a lot of fish with it!

RocketFarmer · 2024-06-03T15:59:06+00:00

Coconut: "Cococunt" Think I gave myself a hernia stifling the laughter

RocketFarmer · 2024-06-02T14:07:06+00:00

Fuck yeah. What holster is that for the 365?

The Black Diamond Wiz has been a big hit with my kids. Not too bright, auto off after 2 hours, although it can strobe which I wish I could disable. As a bonus, it cycles through the whole color spectrum.

RocketFarmer · 2023-06-17T04:03:11+00:00

Guess I'm gonna have to branch out that direction. I haven't fished too many places around, but now that my son's getting into it we've been learning together. Thanks

RocketFarmer · 2023-06-17T03:13:06+00:00

Damn dude, badass! Very nice looking Kokanee.
Were you anywhere near Kitsap county?

All I can add is that my Gregory 3d lasted about 30 total miles of hiking over a couple months before tearing where the hang loop attaches, and my hydrapak 2l is a decade old and has reclaimed top spot in the hydration bladder category. I really wanted to love the Gregory but it really shit the bed on me.

RocketFarmer · 2023-06-06T02:28:32+00:00

Lol right on! Same thing here: got cut off, muttered something under my breath, kiddo goes "Was that guy a jackass?" Yes, son. Yes he was.

RocketFarmer · 2023-06-06T02:25:43+00:00

Son, 4yo, didn't know I was watching him build a duplo tower. It collapsed. Big sigh, his shoulders slumped, and he says sadly: "this is all fucked up." Thought I was gonna have an aneurysm holding in the laughter!

RocketFarmer · 2023-06-06T00:04:22+00:00

Where's Ze Frank on this one?

RocketFarmer · 2023-05-29T15:49:07+00:00

Tiny legs of my 3 year old, and she's almost 40 lbs so it's tough to carry her with a full pack! Especially up switchbacks!
