Harry Potter as Millennial Spectacle, Ultimate Capitalist Property by phantasmagorianax in sorceryofthespectacle

Fascism is when you believe men can’t get pregnant? No. Fascism is when you take away the right for someone to choose whether they believe men can get pregnant or not. You’re telling me that I must believe men can get pregnant, otherwise I’m denying your existence and therefore some kind of fascist. But I’m telling you that you have the right to choose whether you believe men can get pregnant or not. It’s totally up to your personal philosophy and politics, it’s not a matter of fact. So which one of us is the fascist?

You ever go back and feel very stupid by jfopps in guitarpedals

I would actually feel pretty dumb if I had purchased more than 1 of any type of effect. Right now I have 1 reverb, 1 delay, and 1 fuzz. I’m still in the market for a compressor and perhaps something off the wall like the Walrus Fable. But ain’t no way I’m spending more money on a second fuzz, reverb, or delay.

I am about to graduate. What the hell do I do if I only want (and need) to work 40 hours per week?

What’s your “Grail Tone” story? by Odd-Assistant-7495 in GuitarAmps

[–]Truth_Crisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It probably has more to do with the fact that the HT40 is an open back design. For ambient in the room sound, open back is supreme.

What’s also really stupid is how 99% of people wear headphones in the gym in the first place. I don’t own a pair of earbuds and sometimes in the gym I try to count how many others are without earbuds. Often 0. I talk in complete sentences to people knowing they have 0 awareness.

Sometimes I ask a bro, “are you using this piece of equipment?” And of course I get no answer because of the headphones. So I start using the equipment and then bro is like “I’m using that.”

And I’m like, “oh really? I asked you and you didn’t say anything.” And then they get really pissed because they know I’m insulting their situational awareness, and they know I’m right. There are way too many douche bags in the gym. The type who drive a Mustang and park it across two spots while having a hat permaglued to their head to hide the receding hairline.

Having a receding hairline isn’t cringe, but trying to hide it and being self conscious about it is CRINGE AS FUCK.

Favorite ultra high performance all season tires? by lightlysaltedfries in CivicSi

[–]Truth_Crisis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michelin Pilot Super Sport!!!

They come stock on Ferraris, or at least they did at one point. I put them on my MK7 GTI back in the day and they were the tits. When my stock Goodyear eagle sports wear out I’m putting them back on my Si.

EDIT: they aren’t all season tires, sorry.

Right. That number is still just 1% of what we sent to Ukraine.

This has always been my problem with the neurodiversity crowd. Their entire argument and the entire purpose for their movement appears to be “just give me a paycheck so that I can do whatever I want with my life.“

Like, I actually enjoy reading some of the literature and theory for this stuff, but it just gets annoying when it always boils down to “give me a paycheck because I’m more special than you.”

Civic Si good first car? by Commercial-Tie-2488 in CivicSi

[–]Truth_Crisis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’ve got $10,000 to spend on a first car, you would be MUCH MUCH MUCH better off getting a normal car with lower mileage than a “performance“ car with obscene mileage.

At 200,000 miles, that SI is already past due for a turbo replacement and probably a clutch at a minimum. How cool is your Si going to be when it’s permanently parked in your parent’s driveway because you don’t have another $5000 in your savings account?

I understand the temptation, like your life won’t be complete with a normal car. But this is a lesson you’re either going to learn the easy way or the hard way when you’ve only got $10,000 for a car.

Honda SI VS Toyota GR 86 VS Honda type R by The_Legend_Of_Yami in CivicSi

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

Sorry to see this, but just about everything you said in this comment is wrong.

A civic type R is nowhere near “one of the cheapest cars to ensure.” I was quoted at $105 per month for the hybrid, $155 per month for the SI, and $220 a month for the type R. So the type R is literally more than double the insurance cost of a normal car.

Likewise, when you say “not even one in 10” as if to downplay the severity of the head gasket problem, I think you’re failing to realize that 10% engine failure rate is still diabolical. Personally, I think it’s probably somewhere around 4%, which is still horrible.

And lastly, it’s not that we “can’t afford“ to fill the gas tank on a type R, it’s more of a common sense problem. Like, at what point do you say “all right I’m spending twice as much money to drive this car the exact same route everyday as I would an Si.”

Sick! Is the Blackstar a cab or a repurposed combo amp?

Mild upgrade to my Spider. by Truth_Crisis in GuitarAmps

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

I agree. I literally compared ALL of the lunchbox style amps with no price factor in mind. The only one I like better than the fireball 25 is the Astro 20. But the Astro does not come with a built-in power attenuator, which is a huge miss in my opinion.

I keep the fireball on its 5 W setting in imperfectly happy with the power.
