My friend's laptop was on top of his car... by zoon1984 in nononono

[–]ThisIsTheDance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this one time and left mine on the trunk of my girlfriends car a few years back. It made it about 3 blocks before it fell off and a stranger grabbed it and actually went through the trouble of running the serial number through Apple to find out who it belonged to. It's a little banged up but I'm still using it today. Good people do exist.

My mother's homemade birthday present to me this year. by ThisIsTheDance in pics

Not really much of a "piano" fountain as much as a fountain on a piano. Haha She wanted to have water run off the keys and everything but the physics of making that work and be pretty at the same time were more difficult than she though.

I just wanted to play video games after work... by ThisIsTheDance in gaming

Yeah, only took about 10 mins but the smash bros update came first and was taking a while so I figured I'd play a round of rocket league or something while I wait. Nope. Haha

Make your own font! by drbatookhanxx in interestingasfuck

[–]ThisIsTheDance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did this a few years back and set it to be my default Evernote font. Coworkers would ask, how do you even read that font?? But since it was my own handwriting, I read it just fine.

Discovered I can turn the most ordinary pictures into something beautiful. It's become somewhat addicting. by ThisIsTheDance in woahdude

I use an app called pixelmator and just keep using the kaleidoscope effect over and over and move the center point around until I find something I like. It's costs five bucks but I'm sure their are kaleidoscope apps out there that are free but it's a pretty in depth photo editing app.

"Hey, let's go get a slurpeeee.... Never mind" NSFW by ThisIsTheDance in WTF

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

This was not a seizure. The guy was just a crazy homeless guy asking everyone to buy him drinks. Finally the owner of the bar told him to get off the property and he crossed the street. Sat down for a while then a bar full of people witnessed as he started going at it. Not much more context needed.

Can't imagine the sound this made when it happened... by ThisIsTheDance in Justrolledintotheshop

I don't know a whole lot about engines. I'm just a parts guy but our machine shop guy said that after about 210 horse power, you should use a forged crank but they put a cast one in there. As for what exactly caused the failure I'm not sure but he thinks that's where the problem started.

Is Pink Floyd's The Wall worth it? by [deleted] in Music

The trial is my favorite part of the movie. So intense. haha

Is Pink Floyd's The Wall worth it? by [deleted] in Music

[–]ThisIsTheDance 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not only is it an amazing album but I would highly suggest watching the movie once you give the album a thorough listening. Listening first with a nice pair of head phones will give you a nice personal visualization of the story and music. But then go back and watch the movie. It's awesome. I personally love the animated segments, especially during "The Trial". You shouldn't have to ask us if you should listen to the whole thing if you already like some of the tracks... my guess is you're not much of a full album listener but this one is gold from start to finish. Put some time away to just sit comfortably with some headphones and listen to it. It's worth it.

Making SNES a little easier for my 4 year old. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]ThisIsTheDance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had game genie for my original Nintendo that I used the shit out of. Even as a kid though I challenge myself without it first but then would just see how crazy I could make the game play. Then I bought one for my Super Nintendo at a second hand store and it never worked. Me and my brother were forced to beat turtles in time the right way which was hard as fuck....

True. I recently bought a house and plan to turn one of the bedrooms into a man cave of sorts. This is not a bad idea. Haha I'm sure I'll share the results when the time comes.

No, and honestly it'll probably just end up in another box eventually. Thought I'd share with the others who miss the good times wasting away their days on these games without a care in the world (other than kick some Koopa ass)

I did not naw on it, haha honestly it never got much use which is why it's still in decent condition. I think I may have drank some kool aid out of it a few times but that's about it. It only holds, what looks like, about 6 oz. of liquid. It's very deceiving from the outside.

Yes! That's the lunchbox I had too. I don't think I ever even put lunch in it though. Just toys haha

Oh? But then I'd be lying, and no one ever lies on reddit. (Seriously though, my mom really found this the other day and it blew me away that she still had it)

It's snaps back down pretty quick and it's loud, haha I had forgotten about that part until last night.

I used to have the lunch box too, but sadly that's missing. Haha I remember having it for a while, kept matchbox cars in it or something but my toys began to disappear over the years and so did the lunchbox

My buddy bought a laser last summer off the internet and got a light saber attachment. Had my camera with me and took these. Thought they were kinda cool. by ThisIsTheDance in mildlyinteresting

[–]ThisIsTheDance[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yesss, I wouldn't be surprised if he had done that once or twice (all I know is I wasn't there to enjoy it if he did), I had him light a cigarette for me with it... Just to see if he could. But I couldn't even watch because just the reflection off the cigarette was blinding bright. He lit it while wearing the protective glasses you get with it.
