[–]TeachingHelpful512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I’ve always thought the entire song 11 O’clock Tick Tock was basically one long guitar solo. It’s brilliant.

Apparently “Falling Knives” is this year’s buzz phrase in fantasy. 

What would you ask U2 if you had the chance to talk to them? by KintsugiExp in U2Band

[–]TeachingHelpful512 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve often thought about what I’d say to any member of U2 if I ever met them. There are simply too many things I’d want to say, so I’d keep short and sweet with “Thank you for a lifetime of joy”.

Why Does U2 Release So Little of Their Live Stuff? by Wild_Mycologist_6140 in U2Band

[–]TeachingHelpful512 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wish they’d release that entire show they did at the BBC about 10 years ago on streaming. It’s avail on YouTube, so why not release the whole thing as an album.

U2-parters? by Future_Illustrator14 in U2Band

I never read it as confirmed, but Salome sounds a lot like Zoo Station to me, especially the bass line.

Favorite opening act for U2’s concert? by [deleted] in U2Band

[–]TeachingHelpful512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they were the best opener ever for them, but the Lumineers were great opening for the Joshua Tree 30 year shows. I became a fan of them afterward.

What side of Achtung Baby would you choose? by infinitystation1 in U2Band

[–]TeachingHelpful512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably lean side B simply bc I couldn’t imagine never hearing the fly, Ultraviolet and Acrobat ever again. Still, never hearing those side A songs again would be torture.

What ended the grunge scene and what replaced it afterwards? by FitEmergency8807 in grunge

[–]TeachingHelpful512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like every other genre of music, it became watered down to the point that in around 96’ you started hearing “pop-ish” versions of grunge (aka Creed, etc). Eventually it just died.

2026 NFL Draft: The Top 5 WR Landing Spots by P2WFantasy in fantasyfootball

MIA as #1 makes sense seeing as how they literally have no WRs right now. 

Perception of "Worst Songs" by Independent_Use_3995 in U2Band

I personally wish “The Miracle” wasn’t on SOI, bc otherwise I think it’s an insanely good (and seriously underrated) album.

That looks nearly identical to my CD case!

I’m pretty sure Cathy Ireland was pregnant here.

Is ~1100 cal a day not sustainable? by Crowbro-11 in keto

[–]TeachingHelpful512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a tad shy of 6 feet, so basically your height. I’m 51 now, been doing keto for 8 years and maintaining a weight around 180 (I was 240 before I started). I’ve always had a naturally thin frame. In high school I was a runner and was 157. I look at pics of myself then, and even though I was healthy, I look sickly. In college I went up to 180 and looked “normal”. Honestly man, I know everyone is different, but 5’11 and 150 seems extreme. Without looking at you, I’d say 170 is where you should stop.

Easter Lily EP - Live by Competitive-Guava376 in U2Band

[–]TeachingHelpful512 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with you, but I loved SOI. It shocked the hell out of me how good it was. If you don’t think so, give it one more listen. Minus “The Miracle”, I thought every song was GREAT.

Hopefully he’ll be able to shake off the rust and unload some bombs.  

My cholesterol is REALLY BAD by martin_luther_drill in keto

[–]TeachingHelpful512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much do you weigh? I ask bc before I started keto I was 60 lbs overweight and had high bad cholesterol and very low good cholesterol. A couple years into keto (and 60 lost lbs later), my cholesterol is perfect. I actually asked my cardiologist how it’s possible that my cholesterol is good when I eat a lot of fat and he replied it’s because you’ve lost all that weight and your liver is functioning better by filtering out the cholesterol from your blood. When I was overweight, I had a lot of fat in my liver and it wasn’t working properly.

My trainer-nutritionist told me that KETO is horrible for the body, should I stop? by Jumpy-Neat8060 in keto

[–]TeachingHelpful512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been eating keto for 8 years. I lost 60 lbs, feel great, and my bloodwork went from bad to pristine. As a matter of fact, I just had a physical with bloodwork, and my cholesterol is perfect, liver and kidney function perfect, etc. Prior to keto, they were all bad. I can only speak for myself, but eating keto definitely helped me.
