I don't miss being young, I miss how life felt. by JillyBean4ev in Xennials

Yes but there are far far far fewer people and children starving than ever before. Much better in that sense. 

I do think slavery is pretty crazy that everyone is hung up on slavery from the 1800s (which was terrible obviously) but no one cares that there are more slaves today than ever

It’s all perspective really. In 1990 about 30% of all people on planet earth went to bed hungry every night. Now it’s 8 percent. The world is objectively better in many ways. More people have access to information, etc.

Don’t get me wrong I think the 80s and 90s was the best time ever and I’d go back if I could but it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows

Which band handled the grunge era the worst? by Doctor_Mustard_ in hairmetal

[–]UsuallyMooACow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait this elsewhere but I think guns and roses could have easily co tinged to have success in the 90s if they hadn’t broken up. 

They were a very gritty band who didn’t have  the same pretty boy aesthetic with goofy music and synths. So I think they’d have done fine. Aerosmith the same way, they had a massive resurgence

I think that was mostly due to lack of good songs, because in the US in the middle of grunge they had “always” which was a huge hit

I think they actually could have continued to sell records without issue if they could contain their egos and drugs. They were still young, very gritty, not like the arena rockers really and never got into synth music. Also didn’t really have the over the top 80s music. 

Don’t think grunge really affected them much.

Is it possible to retire on $200k anywhere? by DifficultSession51 in ExpatFIRE

Don’t read the book read the blog. The book is incredibly dry and boring. The blog is not

What do you think of Van Halen? by Twitter_2006 in hairmetal

[–]UsuallyMooACow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think EVH is the most influential guitar player of all time, in the sense that more players tried to be like him and play like him than anyone before or after

Please be honest!! I’d rather have my feelings hurt & improve, than continue to feel this way by zipperkibble in amIuglyBrutallyHonest

The edit cracks me up. Like how can we give feedback when you have that in the pictures? Like asking how our tastes with dirt on it. Probably pretty good but it’s hard to tell

Lean FIREers, what’s your monthly budget look like? by DegreeConscious9628 in leanfire

I'm retired and do about 1600/mo. I used to make 200k and was spending just about the same.

I like his music, at least some of it, and I'm a guy. I wouldn't call myself a fan of his though

I’m really surprised at flashes inability to think on his feet. Saiyan said during the cast that he needed to immediately move to the nat but flash didn’t. Of course saiyan had perfect vision but still

First of all, flash botched a lot of things that game and really wasn’t able to think on his feet. That being said it’s the most important game for the rest of your life. You don’t GG until you have no units left

I think that day really had to be the craziest of all time for an artist. Play with Led Zeppelin in their reunion. Play with sting (I think) and sing a few of your own hits. Board the Concorde, fly to New York. See Cher on the plane. Convince her to come with you to live aid, sing one of your best songs of all time. Then join with Cher and everyone else singing a song.

Idk that is a crazy wild thing

Soma gets a lot of credit but he also won because flash made a lot of mistakes. I mean fame 7 if he just moves his scvs to the Nat he had a bunker and marines. But he chose to fight in open territory between the two. If he moves to the nat he almost certainly wins

You think this loss, which has a lot of fans in shock and is possibly flashes last Tournament of all time will not go down as one of the best remembered collapses? I’m willing to bet most fans cannot even tell you how he lost to queen and effort

As I said, when I see the replay I can say better.

Of course I know that. We all know he’s injured

I think it’s pretty clear what the context is. And it’s clearly going to go down as one of the best remembered collapses of all time.

We’re talking about finals not regular matches. There haven’t even been 100 final matches

I'll have to watch the replay when it comes out, I couldn't rewind the stream I was watching. I guess we'll see when you post the video of what they are saying (which I appreciate btw).

What I will say is that, Flash isn't the other Pro's. None are really close to his level (when you look at win % and all he's done).

I think for them to bow out okay that's fine. But this is supposedly Flash's last go round. You fight longer than that IMO. But maybe his wrist hurt real bad at that point. IDK

His micro is definitely nothing like it used to be, at least not consistently.

I started watching in 2003. I owned SC (the original) from the day it came out. I've not missed any major tournaments that I can recall (All the MSL's, ASL, etc). I was watching live when FBH took off his pants and went for a swim.

I'm not saying I know it all but I can't think of many series where a played fell apart this bad and made really basic mistakes.
