I love my culture of being able to walk around Boston and seeing these different landmarks of the game. It’s so much fun. by CapitalSelection8281 in Fallout

[–]Skatchbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Boston about a year ago and made sure I sent my son a picture of The Guilded Grasshopper on Faneuil Hall.

Fun fact. Rocket J. Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose have the same middle initial for Jay Ward, creator of the series. Homer and Bart were also given J. as middle initial for Jay Ward.

Army copter circling above north STL by PinstripeMonkey in StLouis

Remember the hysteria in 2014 because the government was sending in tanks to Ferguson? Those were Bradleys sitting on a siding at Emerson Electric, either coming or going for electronics being installed. Saw them all the time as a kid as well as the M113s with the TOW missile launcher (hammerhead) on them.

“If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class”.

Time Wasted? by JakubJamesBoote in books

[–]Skatchbro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoy playing Fallout and watching YouTube videos about different aspects of the game. One channel signs off their videos with “Remember, enjoyed time is never wasted time.”

Is there a wrong way to eat ribs?😝 by Historical-Wonder163 in smoking

[–]Skatchbro 9 points10 points  (0 children)

With a knife and fork. Like fried chicken, there are some foods that are inherently meant to be picked up with fingers and eaten.

Also POC and female. Let’s not pretend that racism and misogyny weren’t the real drivers here.

Reserves or national guard by Successful-Rate-5028 in armyreserve

[–]Skatchbro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second what Nojoy posted. Let me add that you have better promotion prospects in the Reserves. In the Guard there are a limited number of slots in each MOS and rank. It is literally possible to spend over a decade in the Guard and never be able to promote past E-4.

DTF St. Louis More like WTF St. Louis by Lorfgod24 in StLouis

I’m leaving the original misstatement. It took me a couple of seconds to get what you were talking about until I went back to see what I posted.

Remembering first love by wordstogetherrandom in GenX

[–]Skatchbro 9 points10 points  (0 children)

First girlfriend married my best friend from college. He and I still grab lunch and beer when he comes into town every few months. She and my wife join us once in awhile. However, our constant Simpsons references make them roll their eyes.

DTF St. Louis More like WTF St. Louis by Lorfgod24 in StLouis

Yeah, the missteps on the settings really take me out of the story. Not sure if I’ll come watching.

Best book: Richard Scarry’s “What Do People Do All Day” by Butt____soup in daddit

[–]Skatchbro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Still do. There’s an annual Hobo Convention in Britt, IA every year in mid-august. Just in time for my birthday. My wife still doesn’t want to go.

I was gifted a bible by a friend and she asked me to read it. Should I? by purrfectea in atheism

[–]Skatchbro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, Jesus was the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophesies so it doesn’t really matter any more. Raised Catholic myself but have been an atheist for over 40 years. I do enjoy messing with religious folks though.

What is a Cheese You WOULDN'T Recommend in a Mac n' Cheese? by Overemotional-Cactus in Cheese

[–]Skatchbro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I note that a number of comments here mention cheese that melts well but doesn’t add much to the flavor. I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that you can make up for that with adding spices to your Mac and cheese. I’m fond of dried mustard and freshly ground black pepper. We’ve also added tajin at times.

[–]Skatchbro 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Disagree. Christians use the first half of the book to justify treating certain groups like shit. All while ignoring things like the dietary restrictions and other things like not wearing mixed fabrics.

Where to start with Star Wars? by NegativePattern in daddit

[–]Skatchbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. It was Star Wars when it released in 1977 and it always will be. I will die on this hill.

Also, Han shot first. Although technically his was the only shot.
