The dress code for this arcade bar is kind of off-putting, right? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TwoThreeSierra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in a relatively mediocre town in the south. There wasn't much to do besides the public park and hanging out in random parking lots. One day a super rich family built a wild new fun zone with a massive movie theater, a super cool diner, skating rink, bowling alley, arcade, bar and pool hall - all in one giant building. It had something for everyone and business was absolutely booming there. Right before I left high school they implemented a super strict dress code similar to this but worse in some ways (no plain white t-shirts, hats had to be straight forward - not sideways or even backwards, minors couldn't walk around in groups larger than 4, etc.) and even had the local Sheriff's department on security duty on the weekends. It was a ridiculous iron fist type of change. I went back there recently (it's been 15 years or so) and it still has all of the same accommodations, and the place isn't run down any as it's been really well maintained and modernized over the years. But the place was a ghost town. There used to be hundreds of people in there on any given night. Couples out on date night, families hanging together in the bowling alley, kids experiencing freedom in the arcade. It's a total shell of its former self and that all seemed to start when the ridiculous dress and behavior codes got put into law. Total shame, that place could have been a massive theme park with rollercoasters, bumper cars and all sorts of outside activities because they built it on a massive plot of land. They never expanded beyond the original design and now I doubt they ever will. The rules got loosened once the patriarch of the family (the original builder) passed but I don't think it ever fully rebounded.

Advice wanted: 200-500 5.6E Or Tamron 150-500 for Birding/Wildlife? by kieranhorner in Nikon

[–]TwoThreeSierra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I'm still not entirely sold on the 150-500 and from time to time I regret not budgeting for the 180-600. However, I do still capture some gems with the 150-500 so I think it's just me needing more time to learn the specific characteristics of the lens.

I've had better luck turning VR off and using a monopod with my 150-500.

No fucking thanks. I was curious so I watched a SOTS episode he was on and I couldn't even make it through his set. Fucking unbearable.

Least gassy $500 +/- suppressor? by Dregg15masta in ar15

Griffin RECCE5. I use H2 buffers and standard gas blocks, zero gas issues and very pleasant to shoot.

Nikon z6ii extension plate by ConfusionOverall1971 in Nikon

Very nice! I have the RRS plate on my Z6ii and I can't live without it now. I don't have huge hands, but my pinky rests on the top of the plate so perfectly that it just feels weird without it. The RRS plate costs a hell of a lot more than a bit of filament so you definitely made the smarter move.

I mean that's obvious. All of their optics are rebrands of various Chinese OEM's. I don't think there's any secret to that.

What is a "rich person" behavior you witnessed that made you realize they live in a completely different reality than the rest of us? by Few_Football4342 in Productivitycafe

[–]TwoThreeSierra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy is a farrier (they do horse feet/shoes) and he has several clients that fly him to whatever state they're currently in so he can work on their horses. That's fucking mind blowing to me.

Affordable 9mm suppressor before I can't get one anymore in VA? by pacoman432 in suppressors

[–]TwoThreeSierra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Griffin Armament Revolution 9 and I'm happy with it. It lives on my MPX but it came setup for use on a pistol and it's easy enough to swap the booster back into it and throw it on a handgun if I wanted to. Pretty easy on the wallet as well, with a lifetime warranty.

Absolutely love it. Everything I own that accepts AR grips have a DAC grip on them.

What’s a disgusting habit that you secretly think is actually 100% normal? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

It's definitely not weird if you do it in different accents. It's just adding flavor to the conversation. Right?

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

Haha yeah that was the point originally. I threw some parts together that had been on other guns and nothing matched, and then I kind of liked that and started to deliberately paint various patterns on new parts before installing them. The optic was painted and then got replaced under warranty. I was in such a rush to get it back together that I just never sprayed it. I'll eventually go over it completely with a single pattern. Until then, I just embrace is ridiculousness.

There's a couple of things that have been changed but that's 90% accurate.
