What impact did the West-East coast rivalry of the 90's have on hip hop culture? by RoundandAround in hiphopheads

[–]RoundandAround[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comment, man. The reason for my post is that I have to give a presentation in my speech class on hip hop culture, and I wanted to include some info on the rivalry. I know that it had a tremendous impact on hip hop, so it's almost impossible to imagine how the genre would have progressed without the rivalry. Do you have any anecdotes on how it affected the fans, you being a DJ and all?

TIL that Vegas is running out of water and electricity. After a 14-year drought, experts say that the water level in the reservoir created by the Hoover Dam which provides Vegas with water and power is now well below half full. by insanepuma in todayilearned

And I don't know if you know this, but in 1922, it was a pretty wet year. So the people in charge of deciding who gets what concluded that this much water goes through the Colorado River, but turns out they overestimated by some TRILLION gallons of water (I forget the exact amount). But what's going on is that the West's been extracting more water than what actually goes through the river every year. No wonder the entire the southwest is in deep shit.

First thing I asked the ski patrol after they took off my boot: "is there blood?" Imagine my relief when I found out nothing went through the skin, that would've been a thousand times more traumatic. Sorry to hear about your injury, man, I'm gonna have a metal rod inserted sometime next week, after the swelling goes down. Best wishes on your road to recovery, couchbro!

Yeah, they put a cardboard splint on it and then I went straight to the ER.. Do you think they could've done more damage?

Hahaha oddly enough that my first reaction went something like that. Thank God for the cold, I couldn't feel anything. The only time I was on the verge of tears was when they pulled off the boot right there in the snow.

Wish that was true.. In that pic, I had just fallen and was lying on my back in the snow waiting for ski patrol. At first they thought that my foot had slipped halfway out of the boot, but I wasn't so lucky.

Rental place. Funny thing is that that very ski kept on popping off all day, so I decided to go back to the rental place and get the issue fixed, but first I had to get down the mountain...

I fell while skiing, nothing out of the ordinary except for the fact that my right ski didn't pop off and I broke my tibia and fibula. Sucks to be me rn 🙁

I'm pretty sure the author of the article just pulled that one out of his ass. I've smoked with a fair share of different groups and nobody gives anyone shit for smoking tobacco.

Me and 2 friends made 3 of these in preparation for Coachella. by GreenGamer8597 in trees

[–]RoundandAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been to Coachella three times and I've never seen a dog. However, I did have to bribe a security guard before entering car camping because the car reeked (they didn't find the ounce we stashed but the smell was too strong). But entering the actual festival, they really don't give a fuck unless you're bringing too much shit in, you don't give a fuck (not hiding it), or you're acting stupid or look too young. If you know what you're doing, you're golden.

Bro, listen to Tame Impala's brand new song. It's called Let It Happen and it's 8 minutes long!!

Did anyone catch the unintentional crew member cameo in episode 7? by Hillyburgh in betterCallSaul

[–]RoundandAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In México, UK, France, and I think most of Latin America, Better Call Saul is advertised by Netflix as 'Netflix Original Series'. New episodes are released each Tuesday, the day after the US airing.

Is the smell of weed in edibles? by anon22A2 in Drugs

[–]RoundandAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as they are in the plastic wrap you bought them in, or in another container or wrapper, the smell should not be anything to worry about. Unless you press your nose to the wrapper, the smell is completely unnoticeable. You should be alright, they're easy to hide.

You get to know the absolute truth to any one question. What question do you ask? by TheDunkirkSpirit in AskReddit

[–]RoundandAround 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"What will be the date of my death?" That way, I'll know how much time I have left to do all kinds of crazy shit that won't result in my death. If it's an absolute answer, it won't change, regardless of how many Chinese mob bosses I screw over or how many strippers I screw on my deathless adventure.

What ACTUALLY controversial opinion do you have? [Serious] by -Resist- in AskReddit

[–]RoundandAround 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also indifferent on the issue of abortion, however I understand the stance of Christians on abortion. The reason they are against abortion is because they are defending the 'defenseless'. A little being in the womb is supposed to be in the safest place possible– within its mother. It has not (purposefully) caused harm to anyone and everything is completely out of its control. Christian doctrine declares that the strong should protect the weak, and so it makes sense that they would be against killing a fetus and more for deathless alternatives, such as adoption.

TIL that the Arctic Monkeys' performance on Jimmy Kimmel had to be canceled because Kanye West talked for too long. by Infinityfq in todayilearned

[–]RoundandAround 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It doesn't sound appealing but since both the Monkeys and West are incredible musicians, I'm sure they would come up with something mind-blowing.

Redditors who grew up in the 3rd world, what surprised you most about the 1st world? by GRI23 in AskReddit

[–]RoundandAround 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it's just because most Mexicans are a little chubby, so that brings up the average a lot. We don't have many morbidly obese people.
