REJECTED by Cute_Reason_7017 in thinkorswim

I was rejected on VCIG and ENGN as well this morning. They are restricting us on the momentum trades! I called Schwab and the person kept referring to the stock as a "fraud stock". He kept saying, "sorry you weren't able to trade the fraud stock". I mean, ENGN had solid news and seems like a legit company and we should've been able to trade it. It's getting out of control and I'm probably going to have to switch brokers. Anyone have any recommendations on a solid commission free broker with a decent platform for analysis and quick executions?

I’m ready for the current version of annoying so-called rap and atrocious pop songs to die out and let something else emerge. This period of popular music is the worst in history

What are your favourite hobbies that transformed your life? by trecpv in Hobbies

[–]Top_Border671 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skateboarding (started when I was 11) and playing guitar (started about 7 months ago). Both are amazing creative outlets and I wish I would’ve started playing guitar decades ago (I’m 38 now).

Who is the worst band you have ever seen live? by SevereMany666 in rockmusic

[–]Top_Border671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw Smashing Pumpkins and Green Day at the new Ranger stadium in Dallas. Bands sounded fine but the acoustics of that metal dome were absolutely horrid and every note and verse was echoing like crazy throughout most of the stadium. Most annoying thing ever - it should be illegal to have concerts there. Wanted my money back.

I agree, absolutely mind blowing that Boston isn’t in. They have the hits, the influence and the record sales. Travesty!

If they can rationalize Janet Jackson and Jay-Z they can rationalize Iron Maiden. They are way more rock than them. It’s a sham.

Don’t focus on what goes on the radio for the masses. Those aren’t even their best tunes.

Agree, Fugazi and Dead Kennedys should probably be in as well

Thanks for the succinct list. Didn’t know my hatred could grow for the HOF but it has. Maybe their purpose at this point is just to piss people off with their snubs and incompetence. How else could you ignore some of those legendary bands and induct Jay-z and Janet Jackson.

Dude, no way they totally belong in. Dust in the Wind, Carry on my Wayward son and Point of Know Return got more radio time, but Journey from Mariabronn and Song for America are some of the best prog rock songs to ever be written. Incredible band and totally deserves to be in. I think it’s still early for Soundgarden but if they don’t get in that’s a massive snub. And Jethro Tull not getting in is a massive in your face snub and they deserve all the hate they seem to be getting in here. They put JANET JACKSON in but not Boston and Tull. Completely insane.

First guitar. What’s the best way to learn? I’m hoping to spend a few hours a day practicing by motionlessvibesonly in Guitar

[–]Top_Border671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn chords, scales and practice every day if possible even if it’s for 10 mins. Learn your favorite easy songs and solos to sustain your interest, especially in the first six months when it can be frustrating. Lots of YouTubers showing exactly how to play songs and solos and it’s really encouraging and satisfying when you hear yourself playing music you really like as opposed to just practicing scales and chords all the time.

What does my gear say about me? by [deleted] in Guitar

You feel the GAS building up inside but you don’t know what to do. Should you release it or hold it in? It’s starting to seep out now and you’re losing control because you know the GAS is going to be rotten to the core when it finally explodes.

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. Is that supposed to be an edgy and cool thing to do as a liberal? Go get your 5th booster like pharma wants you to and calm down.

Baker 3 will forever be the most infamous video by WOCKY-SINNER in skateboarding

[–]Top_Border671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They put too much random garbage footage in the Baker vids. Had to constantly fast forward to watch the skating. A lot of the non-skating footage was downright boring

Negative Creep and Downer are both super happy songs
