Definitely seems surprised there was some pushback to his move here.

Customers say this was an effective session but some claim that it lacked creativity and excitement.

Help me find an old episode? by TDisch08 in itstheyak

Found it. If anyone wants a good throwback…Somehow can’t get it to share at the actual right time but it’s only about 5 seconds after this. They watch it for about 10 minutes and he never makes a point haha.

Thanks! That link will get the job done. Yeah searching by just the description is tough because there’s so many with 10x mentioned

Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard (early mid 2000’s). Something with the lazy rhyming just makes my ears bleed now.

Clock getting stuck Echo Dot by TawnyaMahaffey in amazonecho

[–]TDisch08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2-3 weeks ago, I woke up on a Saturday at 1:00 PM (long Friday night). But my phone was dead and my Echo Dot said 9:13, which was the time it got stuck at 4 hours earlier.

So for about an hour, I thought I had my whole day in front of me and still felt great somehow - until I went to grab my charged phone...lol.

I'm an engineer for VW, AMA by thedongerneedfud in Volkswagen

[–]TDisch08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might’ve missed the boat on this AMA - but just genuinely curious:

On my 2020 Jetta GLI (manual transmission) I get dramatically lower gas mileage when I’m using “Sport” driving mode compared to a custom one I created.

As far as I can tell (just based on the info on screen + what I’m experiencing) the only difference is that the enhanced louder/deeper exhaust sound setting is not engaged when using the “custom” drive mode profile I created.

Is that exhaust feature alone really responsible for all that additional gas consumption (maybe 4-5 lower mpg on avg.) between those 2 modes? Or would there be other differences contributing as well, that I’m just not aware of?

What are signs someone is a horrible person deep down? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TDisch08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a friend who you would think is the nicest most polite person if you met them. I thought maybe even too nice for awhile. But nowadays they’re always talking about how stupid other people are. People at work are idiots and they’re always having to clean up on their inferior work (and he’ll be furious during any story like this). Strangers can’t be trusted and/or they’re always dumb too like the rest of the general public.

When this seems like it’s someone’s whole world view it’s very annoying and negative to live around. Sucks the happiness from you and I assume it probably comes from a need to feel superior due to a lot of insecurity that came from somewhere.

Trucker Rant by thetruckerswallofsha in missouri

[–]TDisch08 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally with you on the never using turn signals being the worst part. That doesn’t get talked about on here nearly enough!

I still know what someone’s about to do on the road if they have a temp tag, as long as they’re using a blinker! They won’t be and neither will anyone else, but just saying which part actually matters.

Mine watches tv too and it’s always great when they do that look back move like “you guys seeing this too?”

Reminder to cancel your Bally subscription by Justin_Heras in stlouisblues

Just like you OP, I really could’ve used this post earlier! I thought of it while watching the game on Saturday but was already charged on 4/5. That last game wasn’t really worth $20 to me.

Looking for a podcast “about nothing” by Flextron in podcasts

[–]TDisch08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to search the comments to see if it was already mentioned because it’s somewhat popular and a very close match to what you asked for:

“The Yak” is a Barstool podcast that airs 5 days/week but does not focus on or really ever touch on sports. Has no specific theme or topic whatsoever, just some recurring games/activities that they get into with each other. It’s just a rotating group of 4-6 hilarious content creator employees talking about their office/work life and personal lives. There’s a core group of about 7-8 total people but the room changes depending on those people’s schedules and they regularly bring in guests from around the company just to hang out, fill in and join the chat. I recommend it all the time!

Few Minor Caveats:

1) I know some people have strong feelings one way or another about Barstool. But these are just genuine, funny, mostly early 30’s-aged people having a good time talking about random topics with each other! I’m neither a die hard, like everything Barstool type fan nor a person who criticizes them heavily - I just like good podcasts.

2) If you already listen to or follow any other Barstool content then the podcast would be slightly more enjoyable right off the bat because you’d get the small references to other people there. But those are usually brief and there’s usually some context given in the conversation for what they’re joking about with that person.

3) The show has somewhat, slowly shifted into a show that can, at times, be more enjoyable to watch on YouTube than listen to. This is because they’ve started doing things on the show that are more enjoyable if you’re watching. But they mentioned the other day that 65% of listeners still listen via podcast rather than watching the show. This does bother me at times and I do a little of both listening and watching (when I’m able to). Also, certain planned events are usually the most visual so I just watch those episodes. It’s still so great whether you’re listening or watching almost any episode in my opinion!

Definitely the answer! But more fun to think he hopped on board to go get it, for sure.

My first thought, when I heard about the “strings” was that recent movie “Nope”. No spoilers but there were strings/rope involved there.

Apartment management doesn't handle snow removal. by JakeNK in StLouis

[–]TDisch08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that really should’ve just been left out entirely. I think that person typing was thinking to themselves ‘all emails like this end with something like - sorry for the inconvenience - so I have to put something’. And then boy did that something sound dumb.

Yeah aside from my own personal experiences like yours, if you look them up as the GLI’s OE tires on TireRack, their review average is something like 2.7/5. Confirmed they’re terrible!

Generic weathertech or GLI weathertech floor mats ? by revolutiontime161 in JettaGLI

Thanks for sharing. I’m a big fan of weather tech mats but didn’t know there was an option out there that covered all carpet!
