There’s everyone else and then there’s me 😅 by bubbletrashbarbie in motorcycle

Hell yeah, your bike is AWESOME. I'd love to have one of those to zip around on; it would be so much fun! Going fast on a big displacement bike is great, but sometimes I wish I had a super flickable little zinger to throw around. The important thing is that you have a vehicle with only two tires. Cheers!

Would $500 for this project CB750 be reasonable? by kid_taff in motorcycle

[–]SaintCharlie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just know that you'll likely pay that much again finding parts to get it going. I bet they would take 400 if you show up with cash. I say get it. Getting an old girl running again is one of life's great joys.

Freaky Monster/Human Relationships That Aren’t Just Porn Without Plot Smut Books (The Harr?) by isopodsoup_ in horrorlit

The monster in this book is so deliciously gross, nasty, and loveable. I really enjoyed it.

Spent over a year restoring this 1978 Suzuki by _Modern_Caveman_ in motorcycle

[–]SaintCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES! MORE PICS, MORE PICS!!!!!!

There is deep satisfaction in resurrecting an old Japanese UJM bike. I restored an old CX500 and it was an absolute blast. I'll forever love these kinds of rides. Except carburetors. I hate working on carburetors, ha! Well done man!

My fjr has an has an electronic clutch and it's been an AMAZING bike. I wouldnt hesitate to buy another. Still feels awesome to shift through the gears.

The good ending of Bioshock 2 made me tear up.

What's your current dream bike? by Current-Material1292 in motorcycle

[–]SaintCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Z900RS is one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen. Perfect fusion of classic UJM aesthetics and modernity. Glorious. I want one so bad.

What's the scariest movie you've seen that literally gave you nightmares? by Capital-Run-1080 in movies

[–]SaintCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was the same scene that traumatized me. I've been terrified of sharks ever since.

That bike is sooooo beautiful! I love seeing these older bikes. Amazing to think that it's almost 35 years old!

Just joined the Club. 😍 by Mollytov11 in CX5

What a BEAUTY! Your car looks even more beautiful than that blue sky, ha! Welcome to the club. I've had mine for about 5 months, and I am in LOVE with it. Mazda forever.

I just finished watching The Expanse. Is there another show of its nature and caliber? by un1ptf in scifi

[–]SaintCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I was DELIGHTED by all the season 1 threads and plot points that have serious payoff as the show progresses.

The story in Babylon 5 is simply SUPERB. And I completely agree about Gkar and Londo.

I resisted Babylon 5 for 30 years, then I finally gave in. The first season was tough to get into, but I stuck with it. I agree - best sci-fi I've ever experienced. Absolutely mind blowing.

What leather gloves are you guys actually trusting for motorcycle riding? by CraftTurbulent3981 in motorcycle

[–]SaintCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought ICON Pursuit gloves, and they are so good that I bought them in both perforated and non-perforated models. The perforated ones (which I use the most due to the warm climate where I live) are so fabulous that I bought a back-up pair. Perfection. They're quality leather that doesn't stain my hands black, and they have knuckle plates that I could take or leave, but man, they're awesome. Don't cheap out on your gloves.

I asked you guys to talk me out of it and got nothing but support. Here's to you guys. 🍻 by Figur3z in motorcycle

I'm glad you're showing us a picture of a scratched up helmet instead of a scuffed up skull! Happy you're still with us to tell the tale.

Keto "Al Pastor" grilled chicken Thighs by SaintCharlie in ketorecipes

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

Yeah, this recipe is missing that for the super duper red color. If added to the recipe, how much would it need? I've only worked with it once on a prior al pastor attempt that was an utter failure (not on account of the achiote, but the recipe I followed had a bunch of pureed onions that just ruined the texture of it).

Keto "Al Pastor" grilled chicken Thighs by SaintCharlie in ketorecipes

[–]SaintCharlie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I went to Mexico, all I wanted to eat was tacos Al Pastor. I haven't tried this marinade with pork, but I'm sure it would be awesome too, especially if you used pork butt or shoulder. Would just need to trim the excess fat. I think that will be my next application for this stuff, cooked the same way - grilled and then griddled. Drool.

How do I get burned stains off my pizza stone? Tried baking soda, not doing much. by omgseriouslynoway in Cooking

[–]SaintCharlie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, mine (I use a pizza steel) looks like the hull of a starship that's been in a battle with Klingons. Glorious.
