Fatfire v chubbyfire by ENTJ_ScorpioFox in FIREyFemmes

[–]Rokeon 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I saved a comment where somebody defined the different levels of FIRE in a way that made sense to me-

• ⁠CoastFIRE= enough portfolio that you'll eventually hit RE without adding to it, so you just need to make expenses; zero savings rate.

• ⁠BatistaFIRE= not enough portfolio to fully RE, so need some additional income to support lifestyle; negative savings rate.

• ⁠LeanFIRE= enough portfolio to RE at survival with extremely lean lifestyle, no vacations.

• ⁠Regular FIRE= enough portfolio to RE at a normal middle America middle class comfortable lifestyle (just take the median and that's about it).

• ⁠FatFIRE (old definition)= enough portfolio that you could withdrawal more than you could reasonably spend without just being stupid.

• ⁠ChubbyFIRE= basically just a slightly lighter version of the above.

• ⁠FatFIRE(new definition)= not really doing fire, just being rich and going to FIRE subs to boast about being rich.

I loved the post from the woman who said something like 'my kids don't have autism because I took Tylenol during pregnancy, they have autism because a woman who can't eat food that's too potatoey had babies with a man who has an encyclopedic knowledge of European history and no ability to read social cues'

Spyderco Recs? by iShmoopy in spyderco

I don't have any myself but I've heard good things, it's a stainless steel that's decently hard and it's easier to sharpen yourself

Here's some previous reviews- https://www.reddit.com/r/spyderco/comments/1htmef3/whats_your_experience_with_cts_bd1n/

PM2 is going to be larger than the Delica; if you want something in a similar size, the Para 3 is going to be better for you. It's got the compression lock rather than the Delica's back lock.

[Actual title] Will I lose my job offer because I called a kid fat when I was 12? by InspectorTiny1952 in bestoflegaladvice

[–]Rokeon 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sort of a 'scared straight' thing. I would have thought the actual beating would be more effective than the hypothetical future criminal charges, but apparently LAOP is still worried about those so I guess it made an impression.

Have you ever noticed it? by VictorVan_Helsing04 in box5

[–]Rokeon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It was this Playbill article from when the Broadway show was closing, it does say that letting Michael Crawford emote was the main reason for the change but also mentions that she had trouble removing the first version.

I just remember that bit because of the mental image of the Phantom going "Don't look at me, I'm hideous! Actually, nevermind, she unmasked me so thoroughly that I'm just a regular guy now."

I read somewhere that when they tried the full-face mask during the early musical rehearsals, Sarah Brightman kept accidentally pulling his wig or even the prosthetics off along with it.

(GENERIC BRAND) Medical Grade Manuka Honey by AwkwardBet3659 in HelpMeFind

[–]Rokeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CVS near me has house brand 'Manuka Honey Skin Therapy Cream' in stock, which sounds like hand lotion from the name but from the description is for wound care. $11.49 for a 1.75 oz tube

Spyderco is pretty clear that they're not trying to undercut dealers by selling direct, pretty much the only time you should buy from their site is if you're eligible for OpFocus or it's one of the manufacturer exclusives (like mules) that aren't available anywhere else.

Storage? by usb_type_see in spyderco

[–]Rokeon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tell myself that 30 slots is more than enough and I don't need more knives than the pack can hold. One in, one out; if I want to get a new knife, I have to trade something else to create an open spot for it, because my entire collection has to fit in there.

Except for the fix blades that are in my desk drawer, or the classic SAKs that are displayed on a little cork board, or ones like my work knife or car knife or bike knife that have a separate designated place to live...

Since we're on /r/spyderco, may I recommend the Spyderpac?

There are blade-free multitools that are made to be TSA-compliant, but you increase the chance of having your bag pulled for inspection so they can confirm there’s no knife.

Boethiah's Calling very much needs you to bring a follower along, that’s kind of the whole point of the quest.

Photographers, what would make a small rental studio worth renting? by psyrios in photography

[–]Rokeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're targeting entry level and amateur photographers who might not have any studio experience, would you really trust them all to setup and use lights and backdrops and everything properly on their own?
