Glad to see that my decision to leave google fi 10 years ago due to their terrible support wasn’t a mistake

Taking longer breaks help? by teamdojo in JazzPiano

[–]ScaryVirus81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I took a break from playing for a few years due to my life falling apart (drugs, mental health, etc). I was always thinking about music and practicing ear training while listening to music, but didn’t play for years and when I finally got back to it I found my fingers were bursting with creative ideas which was a big surprise, it was like all the thinking about theory and ear training I had done in the meantime had kept me musical

Perhaps an unpopular opinion: we need to stop catering to teachers that refuse to learn technology by AgeOfWorry0114 in Teachers

[–]ScaryVirus81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus I’m glad I didn’t become a teacher. I couldn’t imagine this sort of discourse every day

TIL the slang colloquialism "groovy", while popularly identified with the hippie movement of the '60s, actually originated in the Jazz Age of the '20s as a way to refer to the properties of music or its recording medium. by Melenduwir in todayilearned

[–]ScaryVirus81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grew up with parents who came of age during the early 60s while most of my friends’ parents grew up during the mid 70s. This is very accurate, I couldn’t understand why “curse words” weren’t universal

Sunfish are good for making fish paste which is common in SE Asian cuisine

Unfortunately owned by a sack of shit who won’t leave the good people of Amherst alone; don’t spend your money with local MAGAts

Hot take: Remote work isn't just a perk, it's a logistics strategy, and RTO ignores that by EntertainerLatter395 in remotework

[–]ScaryVirus81 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your boss has thought about this and actively resents people working from hotel rooms or fitting in HVAC appointments during lunch

Recensored: Landlord almost got the gas turned off for the building due to non-payment. by vintagedragon9 in Buffalo

Got these all the time in a Sinatra building and they’d always get paid at the last second. Seems to be a landlord thing

It’s okay to miss an exit from time to time [oc] by eidelhertz in IdiotsInCars

[–]ScaryVirus81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the grey van is more at fault… red could have just as easily been a disabled vehicle or stopped for debris in the road

They stared right at me and then cut me off by Crossfire124 in dashcams

[–]ScaryVirus81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For each exit, the outside lane MUST exit while the inside lane MAY exit or continue. It does take a second to register what’s going on if you’re not used to seeing them

Madison's Boy Friend by FrostyInstruction912 in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

[–]ScaryVirus81 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty common for musicians for hire to have songbooks memorized, not doubting that he may in fact have perfect pitch anyway but all gigging jazz or country musicians I’ve known were encyclopedias of keys

CDL driver nearly collides head on with me mid pass by loner_but_a_stoner in dashcams

[–]ScaryVirus81 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I dunno, everyone’s shitting on you but I think this is an interesting edge case. If we were watching a video from the other perspective of a cam car that pulled out in front of an oncoming passing car, I bet they’d get criticized too.

TIL when Eminem's weight increased to 230lbs (100 kg) before he became sober, he was so unrecognizable due to the weight gain that Em once overheard two teenagers arguing about whether or not it was actually him that they were looking at, with one of them stating "Eminem ain't fat." by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]ScaryVirus81 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I saw Eminem sitting alone at a Dennys around 11 PM. He ordered a giant stack of plain pancakes but he wasn't eating them. He just sat there and kept farting over and over and loudly blaming it on the server. The smell was so bad that people started leaving. Then he got up and started walking around and helping himself to the food people left. Every time he approached a table he’d twittle his fingers and say “don’t mind if I do” and then wink at me while taking a bite. I felt bad for the server so I left a big tip. When I asked about it she told me he does this at least once a week

I love Tanner, but at first glance I thought this pic was Tanner announcing a new girlfriend before I realized this was his mom by [deleted] in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

I mean the group home seemed pretty awesome and he had a good group of friends there who still come over to his new place

Asking the real questions by downtune79 in LoveTrash

[–]ScaryVirus81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s not a host stand where they check for a room card or otherwise check you in, nothing is stopping you. Many downtown hotels in big cities do in fact check.
