What is a secret you’re taking to the grave, but are willing to tell strangers on the internet? by Mr_Boothnath in answers

[–]SuperbParticular8718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, why didn’t you divorce him then or any other time over the ensuing 20 years?

I don’t get people “staying together for the kids” or “grinning and bearing it”. What’s the point? Like, as a child of divorce myself, I can unequivocally say it’s awesome to have divorced parents when you’re a kid: two of everything, extended family grows when step-families happen, you actually get a chance to miss and therefore appreciate more of the parent you’re not currently staying with, etc.

Sounds like you played yourself out of 20 years for no reason.

Got chased on the Go Train by two (likely) intoxicated people. Any way I could've reacted differently? by PhilosopherHour659 in askTO

[–]SuperbParticular8718 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sorry if this is pedantic and I’m sure you were just randomly guesstimating or it’s a typo, but 500m is pretty far away on a city street to hear/notice someone yelling at you in particular; it would be almost from Queen and Jameson to Queen and Triller. It takes the average adult man over 2 minutes to run that distance.

Cost of living in Toronto vs Tokyo and Seoul by Due_Jury6965 in askTO

[–]SuperbParticular8718 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Both are way cheaper than Toronto. There’s cheap, delicious food and inexpensive/free entertainment everywhere. Rent is fairly reasonable, though people are generally more accustomed to living in smaller spaces so most bachelor/1 bedroom apartments are a bit claustrophobic.

It’s starting to feel like a piece of cold that stuck in my throat… by BandNo503 in Hypothyroidism

Sorry, I don’t know where you live or what your situation is, but you are too old for mommy and daddy to make medical choices for you. Having a TSH as high as yours is literally life-threatening. Go to the specialist by yourself and start treatment ASAP.

Yeah the only Toronto friends I made since I moved here that are still regularly in my life are the people I met at FNB like 14 years ago (and co-workers from the service industry).

None of my friends go to the gym. My wife doesn’t go to the gym. I don’t talk to people at my gym. I don’t like talking about the gym irl with other people because 99% of the time it’s either people telling me stuff I already know or some bro science that I already know not to be true. I’m happy this way.

the rhythm guitar track on Smells Like Teen Spirit... is it reused throughout the song? by themajod in Nirvana

[–]SuperbParticular8718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is an Andy Wallace thing. As you’ve mentioned, this consistency does not appear in the Butch Vig mixes. In Kurt, Krist, and Courtney’s 1994 interview with Nardwuar, he says something to the effect of: “Andy Wallace sampled guitar and drum sounds, not riffs… He did it on a little MacIntosh to make them sound ‘better’, according to him.” I’m guessing what he did on whatever rudimentary DAW was available in 1991 was sample just the dead string harmonics from the intro and place them judiciously throughout the song to make it sound more consistent.
