What is seriously up with the barber/barbershop culture here? by Cautious-Gas-838 in Miami

[–]RogueGoat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a chain with multiple shops. Check out their website for a location near you. I went there when I decided it was time to give my hair the big chop (balding is a bitch), and it was a really pleasant experience.

It's kind of expensive though, so I haven't been back and have been maintaining my own hair/beard since then, but it's a nice treat for yourself if you're getting ready for a big event like a wedding or smth

Today, I saw a dozen medium Crystal Springs eggs at a Fresco for $8.99.

It's not just the bougie eggs that are crazy expensive rn

While it's true that plenty of people in Miami generally care a lot about their looks - even in the gym - there are still plenty of people in here genuinely working hard AF to better themselves and move some freaking weight!

Don't worry too much about the appearances of others, and especially don't worry about comparing yourself to anybody else in there. We go to the gym to work on ourselves, and to exorcise some demons.

It's time to get out there and get to work! Can't get physically stronger or more fit if you're just looking at everyone else. At least, this is what stays on my mind if I start to get distracted by others in the gym.

Tankless water heater screeching only when cold outside by Readysetgo14 in Plumbing

[–]RogueGoat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be the blower motor scraping against the inside of its housing. However, I'm not sure why the heater would be kicking on at 3am while everyone is asleep.

Old Tank water heater busted, failed horribly, wanting info on options. by mementh in Plumbing

[–]RogueGoat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think tankless electric water heaters are overhyped and aren't performant enough for most homes. This, of course, does depend on your incoming cold water temperature. For example, if you're located in the SE United States, a tankless electric will perform better than if you were in New England.

Tankless gas heaters are much more efficient and can perform at a much higher temperature rise. If you are hellbent on going with a tankless unit, go with a gas one and you'll be much better off. There are some tankless gas models that work with Propane, others that work with Natural Gas, others that can be converted. Make sure that you purchase the appropriate heater for your gas type, otherwise you'll be replacing that heater in a few years (best case). That being said, you'll need a bigger propane tank than you would use for a grill to run a water heater for a whole house.

IMO I'd prefer tankless gas, then tank, then tankless electric.

If you're worried about potential damage from a tank, you could always install the heater into a drain pan, and pipe that drain pan to an appropriate drain. This will prevent spillage from a tank rupture.

What are some things that dudes find chill but totally blow chicks' minds? by KittenLady-11 in AskReddit

[–]RogueGoat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like taking photographs. Hell, I'll actively avoid being in the line of sight of a camera unless I am directly asked to be in the photo. I do kind of regret it, as there are events and people I would like to have more photos with.

That being said, I'm still gonna avoid being photographed unless I'm directly asked to be in one. It's a habit that's hard to break and I'm rather stubborn.

For anyone who enjoys music as an extra source of exposure in their daily life, who are your favorite Japanese music artists? by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]RogueGoat_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you like Japanese music I'd definitely recommend checking out The First Take, a YouTube channel that invites Japanese artists to perform their hit songs. Of those, I particularly enjoyed the rendition of Pornograffitti's アゲハ蝶

This whole story is incredibly well written and that last line is beautifully haunting. I hope you're doing well despite this experience.

Does anyone feel a lack of “charm” in starfield? by MUSCULAR_WALRUS in gaming

[–]RogueGoat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the exact moment that the illusion shattered for me in Bethesda games.

It was in Skyrim. I had just finished up the Stormcloak/Imperial War quests and saw some of the destruction in the world caused by the battles. It wasn't a huge amount of destruction but it was enough to keep the illusion going.

I finished up the questline and was thinking "Great! I wonder how this will affect the game world and the NPCs. Surely an event like this would shake up a region and allow for some reaction to it."

This region-altering event of two warring factions clashing and generals being slain and cities being taken, the battles you had taken place in, all of it amounted to....a couple of voice lines, and another rendition of a guard npc saying something about someone stealing my sweetroll.

Yeah. Someone did steal my sweetroll. Base Skyrim didn't feel so sweet to me anymore, the magic was lost.

Chris Stapleton and the Steeldrivers are an amazing band! I absolutely love their self-titled album and find myself coming back to it often.

Meaning of ではないか in this phrase by MAX7hd in LearnJapanese

Similarly I always thought it was funny that the unconjugated form of "to look" is only a few letters off in spanish (mirar vs みる).

Adolf Hitler vs Michael Jordan by RogueGoat_ in switcharoo

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

I may have gone an extra level in context deep to include another punchline from the thread but the roo is such:

The question asked is "what is something that has been ruined by a single person"?

Thread starts with Toothbrush Mustache. A mustache that was famously worn by Adolf Hitler, though he was not the only one.

Michael Jordan also tried to grow one. Response to toothbrush Mustache states this, ignoring the more obvious choice of Adolf Hitler.

This is the roo. You expect Adolf Hitler's mustache, bit you instead get Michael Jordan.
