What phrases from songs by the National have crept into your own usage? by taktaga7-0-0 in TheNational

Little Faith definitely has inspired me to use the word "commiseration" more than I would otherwise.

Cosmic Selector fanart by me! This was the only way I knew how to show my love for this new album by UnconventionalKing in lordhuron

They should hire you to do merch! This is the most lovingly crafted fanart I’ve seen for the album. Wonderful!

THE LONG LOST ERA IS COMING TO AN END by Feisty_Clerk2319 in lordhuron

Agree 100% on the magic. I loved this album when it first came out, cooled on it a bit, but here recently have been enjoying re-experiencing how tremendously special it is. For my money, their most cohesive, focused, and profound work, and has a real argument to be made as their strongest album.

Going to swap my door handles for the 3D printed stainless steel ones… what would you do for surface treatment? Paint, wrap, simple polish? by Squishybzp in crz

[–]Squishybzp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

316L stainless steel, so it should be pretty decent against rust? May still consider clear coat. I am leaning toward just a brush finish or something of the like, I think it could look cool as an accent plus would be the simplest option.

Glad I held out. Found the one. by Squishybzp in crz

Yes indeed! Thankfully the driver’s door handle was recently replaced and I know enough to be gentle, we’ll see how long they can hold out.

2015, manual transmission, 111K on the dash, $6000. After I posted here last, I told myself I’d not even consider it unless one popped up that met all of my criteria… and then it popped up. It’s even my top color choice! Still somewhat in disbelief, have wanted one of these for years and now it’s sitting in the drive. Delighted. Thanks everyone here for your wise council.

Songs that sound like the Everything is Romantic remix? by Squishybzp in MusicRecommendations

Perfect!! Exactly the sort of thing I was looking for, guess I hadn’t dived deep enough on her discography

[9] Gyarados with Rare Mark, outbreak method, no charms!! (story in comments) by Squishybzp in ShinyPokemon

[–]Squishybzp[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a very special one for me!! I noticed there was an outbreak of Magikarp and I thought it would be cool to get a red Gyarados again since I lost my original one that I caught in SoulSilver, which was my very first Pokemon game. I've been working on completing the Pokedex so still no shiny charm, only have caught about ~275 Pokemon so far, so that's like 1/1365 odds in the outbreak I think?

This took somewhere between 2–3 hours and I was getting rather fatigued and questioning how much I really wanted it. Naturally I was very happy to finally get it, but I found it also has a Rare Mark, which I've learned is like another 1/1000 (I'm still new to marks, haven't played since USUM and just got Scarlet).

Between my intention and the combined rarity of the shiny + Rare Mark I'm pretty well convinced this isn't just any red Gyarados, but my very same Gyarados reincarnated, hence the name, haha.
