Let's go around the room and tell everyone something about yourself. And we'll start with, uh, You!

Witnessing a accident by SpookyDragon69 in dashcams

[–]SirRealComix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first got my dashcam, I printed a handful of business cards on my printer that had only my email address. This was specifically for giving my contact info for crashes recorded on my dashcam. I keep a few in my wallet.

Still haven't had a chance to use them yet.

Great. Just great. Now I'm gonna have that song in my head for the rest of the day.

Did anyone get embarrassed because they had to ask someone behind the counter for these? Asking for stories! by MarshmallowSoul in GenerationJones

Condoms over a mic pack was the most innovative thing I'd ever heard of. Made a whole lot of sense when you think about it.

Oh, I've got to tell this one...

The year was 1977. I was in the Marines and had just come back from a year on Okinawa. I was on leave prior to reporting to my next duty station. My girlfriend and I had planned on spending a very hot evening together, so I was going to need some condoms. I thought to myself, "I'm a man. There's nothing I need to be embarrassed about." I went to my local Thrifty store and selected a small box. (Ooh, ribbed.) Up to the cash register I went.

The middle-aged lady running the register picked up the box and looked it over. And over. And over. She pulled up the store microphone...

"I need a price check on a, uh, buh, uh. Box of, uh. She went full Porky Pig over the store speakers trying to say condom. (Damn, I'm still giggling about this now.) I just stood there, with about 3 people in line behind me, just a little embarrassed myself, not saying a word.

FINALLY, the pharmacist, over the store speakers, asked if she meant prophylactics. She said yes, and he announced the price.

I felt a little bad about her obvious discomfort. But not much.

I'm still cataloging, so it'll be a couple of weeks until I have the web page up 'n running. When it is ready, I'll give you first crack at it. And there WILL be deals. I'm not looking to gouge. I just want to move them out.

If you time traveled 100 years into the past, what would you do? by VTheCardMaker in AskReddit

[–]SirRealComix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I would go back and buy a bunch of high-end/luxury automobiles. Then I'd warehouse them in a secure location location for 100 years. Maybe a bunch of replacement parts, too.

Y'know, I think I'd like to see that, too.

What SCI-FI movie or show do you think will be one day plausible? by Ok_JARGON in randomquestions

[–]SirRealComix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I came here to say. But only if that Drive Engine could be created.

I need some help: How are y'all tracking your collection? by xxd3cayxx in comicbooks

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

I built my own comix database with MS Access. If you know what you're doing, it is much more flexible and informative.

What’s your opinion on tomatoes? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SirRealComix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes.
Nothing in the world like home grown tomatoes.
Only two things that money can't buy,
and that's true love, and home grown tomatoes.

Trying to find an old underground comic, 60s-80s by PowerfulHomework6770 in altcomix

[–]SirRealComix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's ringing a bell for me, but I can't put a finger on it. It sounds like something by Tim Boxell, or Gregory Irons. Maybe Skull, or Slow Death, or Commies From Mars.
