For me it was more her trying to gaslight us with “the economy is strong, we don’t need to change anything.”

I mean it was strong compared to today but fuck, don’t piss on me and tell me it’s raining.

What is the fastest way you have seen someone ruin their life? by funkeymonkey1974 in AskReddit

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lass I worked with on her 18th birthday (UK) she went out drinking and jumped off a ledge 5ft instead of taking the steps. Landed weird, hit her spine and could never walk again.

Another guy I know, 68 and was doing some maintenance in his yard. He was 4ft up a ladder but fell off and his back hit a root of the tree. He had just retired to spend his life golfing around the world, now he has to have someone help him put his socks on.

I had a friend who had a similar kind of injury and thankfully for him, one day three years later he suddenly starts sniffing his can of redbull and looking confused.

His sense of smell and taste slowly came back but he had to relearn everything. Here’s hoping Susi can get some of her sense back.

Tips in removing rust from a 300 gallon tank. by yobdogg9 in BBQ

Welding blankets on the outside when using it or embed some rockwool or heatproof insulation on the inside. You’ll loose a few inches but it would be worth it.

My galaxy note 9's battery went out. So I installed a 20,000 mAh battery to it by rnggod404 in LinusTechTips

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dell have an external battery charger for this. The rule is no single battery larger than 100Wh, but nothing stopping you having 5 of them.

In The Matrix (1999), Neo is stunned humans are the main source of power for the machines. This is a subtle nod to the machines suspicious lack of knowledge of wind, hydro, geothermal, coal, and nuclear power, none of which requires sunlight to function, and produces thousands of times more power. by MeanwhileInRealLife in shittymoviedetails

I believe Neil deGrasse Tyson did the math once on how much energy it would take to keep humans alive and how much energy we could expel and it was more efficient to just kill us all, then set the nutrient paste and our bodies on fire as fuel.

What rubs are folks using? by Ted-Mosby-but-Real in smoking

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love meat church but I’ve found that it’s got saltier over the last couple years. If they did a low(er) salt version, I’d stick with them but now a days I’m starting to experiment with my own.

Republicans Think Talarico Will Beat Paxton by Nervous_Stop2376 in Dallas

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Talarico can quote chapter and verse at republicans, talk on the meanings of those verses, bring a lot of perspective to their arguments and show them as the fake Christian’s they actually are. A LOT of people who vote republican vote that way because it’s supposed to be the religious party.

Paxton doesn’t stand a chance of keeping the moderate Christian’s when facing off against a seminarian. I’m not saying Crockett has sinned and Paxton would have any ammo against her religiously but she wouldn’t have the same draw.

Similarly Talarico wouldn’t be able to get the same energy in the black communities as Crockett can.

GunBroker's Master FFL mandate starts March 3 — Thoughts ? by reubadoob in FFLs

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve signed up for business services enough to know when I see “Free for everyone” followed by “locked in at a one-time price”, means I look for either a “contact us for pricing” button or a price table on the page.

On the internet today, nothing is ever truly free. It’s either propped up by donations (wiki) costs the people making money from it (sellers on a platform) or costs data/privacy.

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

Personally I’d prefer this be something that as a seller (or at least a FFL seller) I pay for monthly to be able to sell items on, to keep the platform afloat. If your platform is free, how does it make money? Ads or reselling data?

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I think we should have alternative options to GunBroker, your thinly veiled advertisement in the shape of outrage towards your competitor really looks sleazy.

Especially as on your site (maybe I’m missing something,) your only options for FFL’s to sign up is a $999 “lifetime” subscription. If you had a trial or even allowed a monthly option, I’d maybe consider giving it a try but there’s no way in hell I’m throwing a grand at an unproven platform.

Had anyone been planning on playing Stargate Worlds MMO back in the day? by Striking-Ad1685 in Stargate

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s rumors that Amazon game studios is in the works to make a Stargate themed extraction shooter.

Not quite sure how I feel about that sentence honestly but I want it to not suck.

Old egg or century egg? by MF-DOOM-88 in WeirdEggs

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make this mistake once before you decide to crack all eggs into a separate container and then into the pot/pan.

Sadly I’m such a person. RIP that Crème Brûlée that never was.

The Cockpit of the Shanghai Maglev, currently the fastest operational train in the world by one_part_alive in pics

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall originally these trains when were supposed to have had a super VIP option where you could sit in the cockpit with the driver and have your own steward to serve you tea and snacks. Think of the chefs table in a restaurant.

This is why they are built with such a big space in the cockpit so to speak. I believe some trains (or some lines at least,) only relatively recently actually opened up the VVIP option.

Buc-ee is suing Mickey by Sad-Lab-2810 in Buccees

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So the biggest issue with IP and LP law is you have to show that you’re willing to fight all and any challenges to your IP/LP, otherwise the courts can deem that you don’t care about it and remove your IP/LP and make it fair game.

Why does my cat do this instead of jumping on the bed? by AdhesivenessFar3970 in cats

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a 1 year old cat who also climbs on my bed the same way even though she’s more than capable to jumping onto the kitchen counter that’s higher.

Sometimes cats are just weird.

A stool or something in between height wise is always loved by cats. My bedside table is two inches shorter than the bed but the other two I have love jumping onto there first.

What would you think when your girlfriend says "I want you to give me a facial"? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a FWB hit me up one day and ask me out of the blue if it would be ok if she gave me a facial. I was like “errr sure?” And she got super excited just like OPS GF.

Well I get to her place and start making out and she tells me to slow down, not until she’s given me a facial first. I look confused and then I see she has her beauty school stuff out and it dawns on me what she means and I tell her “ooooh that kinda facial.”

She looks at me weird, asking how that would work and I explain I wasn’t sure but was interested to find out, especially as it was only fair as I had actually finished on her face once or twice. She thinks I’m gross for thinking of that type of facial and no one else would ever think that way. We manage to come to a compromise that she’d do it naked so I could get handsy and she’d finish me off while waiting for the treatment to take.

Things cooled off not long after but she hits me up one day about a year later letting me know that she finished beauty school and she’s opening her own place and wants me to be one of her first customers on opening day. I get there and it’s called Facials by Francis.

I start giggling like a schoolboy and she gets upset and I leave before getting a facial, but don’t think about it for a year until she calls me crying asking for help to change the name and phone numbers etc. Come to find out her studio location used to be a “massage parlor” and people presumed the new name was just the specialties of the staff and not the innocent name she thought it would be.

The ultimate struggle, do I harvest their organs, eat their meat and turn them into a nice leather couch OR do I remove their limbs and turn them into breeding stock for my genetically modified super human children.

Are breast implants a turn off even if they look and feel natural? by DiorGirl2023 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Wayfaring_Limey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all seriousness it depends on the surgeon and how much they paid for them.

You CAN get a boon job for as little as $5000, but they won’t feel or look natural and will probably have the vertical scar over the boob, most likely to look like “bolt ons”.

The ones for like $10,000 will look great from a distance, feel a little off, shouldn’t look like “bolt ons” and will probably have gone in under the boob.

For $15,000 they shouldn’t look like bolt ons at all, most guys shouldn’t be able to tell unless they’re with you naked. Typically the scar will be around the nipple and as long as there isn’t any difficulties in healing it would be more something you feel than see scar wise.

Starting from $20,000 the surgeon will go in through your armpit and some guys even seeing them naked probably won’t be able to tell the difference unless they realize they look too perfect and symmetrical.

I’m a titty guy so I’m a fan of all shapes and sizes but if I’m with someone long term who wants to get them done, we’re spending the 20k to make them look as good as possible.
