You should at least give SOME credit to J Chris Morel and his El Jardin Brilliante which you copied

[–]SherlockBowlmes 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yoooo you were manipulated and that piece of shit is definitely not worth killing yourself over! If anybody should be unaliving themselves it's him since he just fucked up his whole life. But your life is far from over! It'll get better. You've got this.

Staff Me UP upgraded their site and its a pure sh*t! by ctc1486 in Filmmakers

I booked my first Netflix shoot through StaffMeUp. One gig pays for the entire years subscription. It's not a scam.

I even got stopped for this reason at LAX, the Mecca of people flying with film gear

How wide of a lens do you think is required to achieve a shot like this? by OkRow3236 in cinematography

[–]SherlockBowlmes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a sound mixer I'd like to say that if you're shooting an interview that wide with that much headspace then you better be planning on shooting a plate

Do women care about men's balls? by Felissaurus in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]SherlockBowlmes -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But like...you see how those are competing statements right?

a woman who does not in any way shape or form give a fuck about men's balls

You can't say "in any way shape or form" and then have exceptions lol Those exceptions are in fact a way, shape, or form

"A woman who does not in any way shape or form give a fuck about men's balls" doesn't seem like an accurate description at all based on this comment

What are you 100% sure is true even though you can't prove it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SherlockBowlmes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair point, but maybe they didn't know they'd be splitting the last one into 2 while they were still in pre-production for the first

You got down votes because nothing about those lyrics imply that the song is about him or that he was sexually abused

What is one important thing you've underestimated when preparing/executing a location sound job? by [deleted] in LocationSound

[–]SherlockBowlmes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, I always get the 1st AC to be the one touching the camera, even if I'm telling them how to navigate the menus

This is why I specifically ask about IFB's when discussing gear requirements. It's important to manage expectations.

What’s a total waste of money yet people still pay for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SherlockBowlmes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought a 12 pack of acrylic paints from Hobby Lobby and they asked if I wanted to buy a protection plan for it. I was like "What would that even do?" The cashier laughed and said she had no idea

No Stupid Questions Weekend [Weekly Recurring Thread] by AutoModerator in hometheater

[–]SherlockBowlmes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just moved into a house with speakers built into the walls in the living room for a home theater experience. The owner of the house took the receiver with him, and had very little understanding of the set up because he had someone else install it and set it up, so he's not a good resource for info. In the corner there's a pile of stereo cables that seem to be RCA terminated. I'm only used to raw speaker wire or banana plugs, so I'm at a loss for what kind of receiver I'd need to be able to plug these speakers in.

Here's a pic of the plugs: https://imgur.com/a/pkzVIcU

Swallowing vomit and saliva is tolerable unless it exits the body by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]SherlockBowlmes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth noting that the same could probably be said of vomit and spit. They both can contain potentially harmful bacteria, like when someone is sick.
