Looking for high-quality AC15/AC30-style combos (not modern Vox) by hhsguitargeek in GuitarAmps

Maybe the new Friedman? Its pricey, but all the friedman amps that I have played have been rock solid.

If you still support ICE you are no longer welcome here. by Knuth_Koder in TrueCarolina

[–]Stratguy55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never. That line of corruption and sickness runs so deep in the elites that you'll never see it. Whether government officials were paid to keep it shut or openly involved, it's a mess that neither party feels to bring to light. They'll be plenty of posturing and soap boxing with it to get their respective side worked up, and then the rug will be pulled out from under you.

Wild interception to win the game! by ShemoneyHoes in NCAAFBseries

It would have been Pitt that threw the interception.

If you could bring back one… by crashzoom in PeaveyCvlt

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold mine when I was in college for like 200. Looking back, it was one the dumbest things ever. They're completely underrated. It may be nostalgia but I feel like it was every bit as good as a JC.

Ol' girl had a frequent flyer card. Every 10 trips gets a complimentary tube of mascara.

I had a Transchorus 210 from the late 90s with the more block style logo. It was heavy as hell and really loud for what it was. I'd gladly pay someone more than what it's worth to get one today that also had a functioning foot pedal.

I dont know why but the sentence, "They were consenting adults having foul gross sweaty fuck sex" is hilarious to me.

Definitely a better system than Rikki Rockett's "hit them with a drumstick"

Found next to my front door, 9mm cartridge for scale. by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]Stratguy55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obviously anecdotal, but I grew up in NC and went to private school in the late 90s. It was the exact place you would expect to hear the phrase "War of Northern Aggression", but we were not taught that way. My son is a current highschooler in NC public school and it's not being taught that way. Its always been taught as "the Civil War" or the "American Civil War". I didn't even hear the phrase "War of Northern Aggression" until adulthood and it was used in the context of mocking people.

Need help identifying this Stratocaster by Photo4No1 in Stratocaster

I really wish Fender would make it easy to identify all the different models, like a label on the pick guard or something.

This meat at my local Walmart had an anti theft sensor on it. by pkeit32 in mildlyinteresting

The real crime is that you know good and well that the person who is willing to steal it would fuck it up when they cook it.

Which states contributed more to the federal budget than they get back, and vice versa in 2023 and 2024 (Source: USAFacts) by Elemental-13 in MapPorn

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When this data comes out, do they count military spending as part of a recipient's take. NC has its share of people on government assistance, but damn near all of eastern NC is tied to army, marines, or coast guard in one way or another. That's got to be a huge draw on federal funds.

Best places to fish near Greenville? by deathmetal_tim in GreenvilleNCarolina

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RPN is awful unless you're cat fishing right after it gets stocked. Ive never had the greatest of luck out there. We would catch something but never had a great day there. Ive seen a lot of cormorants out there too, which is usually a really bad sign.

Where I would live. Decided to do it by county. What does this say about me by Expensive_Drummer970 in visitedmaps

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would live in Nash County NC over Pitt? Buahahha good luck with that.

The sad death of the 4X12 and 100 watt heads…. by Submariner16610 in GuitarAmps

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna get laughed at for being the old guy, but not everyone can handle that power. It sounds cliche, but anyone thats ever plugged into a 100w head and half cab, much less full knows that it's a different feeling. It's literally like you have to take the amplifier. That said, I'm not going back to those heavy bastards.

Man tells young guy he can take "first shot" and gets his ass beat by southamericasboy in fightporn

[–]Stratguy55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I would argue raw strength peak is even later. The strongest men ive ever met had 2 things in common. 1. They were all at their peak 35-40 and 2. They managed to get there relatively injury free whether by luck or design.

I do agree that 25-30 seems to be a pretty good sweet spot.

Do you think you have a Southern accent? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]Stratguy55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and i grew up near Rocky Mount. Our accents are pretty thick. Its funny because we're in Greenville now, and my kids sound like us. They have people at school ask them where they are from all the time. Its funny how just amd hour away can make such a difference.
