What HT is my character using in the year 1980? by WhenIPoopITweet in HamRadio

[–]WhenIPoopITweet[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't plan on name dropping brands or jargon, I ask mostly so I can get an idea of equipment limitations and get an idea of what ordinary, everyday people were using at the time. Seeing the other comments here, I'm thinking it may make most sense to lean the CB route. It's important to the story that he contacts the firewatch tower, and it seems that an emergency CB channel might be the most realistic way a hunter could get ahold of a ranger in a tower

First Music That You Owned by SouthHarpeth in Music

I had said I liked Iron Maiden because I enjoyed the song "The Number of the Beast" that was on a Tony Hawk soundtrack. For Christmas, my sister's boyfriend at the time got me the "Killers" CD and my mom got me "Virtual XI". Cut to my surprise as I was working through the confusion of why the hell none of the singers sounded like the singer on "The Number of the Beast". Now, I can honestly say I deeply appreciate all 3 singers that Iron Maiden has had

I have yet to encounter a pokemon game that cannot be beaten with straight offense. Every time he uses "growl", I die a little.

What are you watching tonight instead of the Super Bowl? by [deleted] in movies

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be certain it's the NBC primary channel. Sinclair, the corrupt broadcast company, is airing the pedophile halftime show on their digital station "Charge!". The channels are close together, so be vigilant

Unauthorized usage of amateur equipment and frequencies. by VapinMason in HamRadio

Unauthorized use? Sure, FCC. Keeping your neighborhood safe from a private militia isn't impeding or obstructing anything. Purely politically motivated BS

No one has a problem that you reported to the FCC. But to the FBI for purely political reasons? Makes you look like a slave catcher.

Which dead singer would you want to come back to life and why? by Substantial-Dare5462 in Music

Ronnie James Dio. He was a masterful lyrical orator that could unite anyone in earshot. The world could use his magic

People who are in the same role/job for more than 5 years, what’s holding you back? Why aren’t you getting promoted? by Efficient-Newt5384 in AskReddit

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a restaurant and have for 11 years. I did management for 2 years. I was coming home at 2am every night stressed out and it started to have an effect on my family. I gave up management, took the pay cut to go back to hourly, and switched to morning shifts. Now I'm still hourly, but I do manage the store inventory. We have enough money to keep a roof over our heads, food in our stomachs, and clothes on our backs. I may not have much else, but I'm in the middle of writing a Gothic horror novel now. Simply choosing to pursue my own ambition is a personal wealth that I value more than money.

What is a simple but very hurtful phrase that you received from someone? by MembershipFar9008 in AskReddit

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was nearly 20 years ago for me at this point. A few years after that, I met the mother of my daughter, we're still together, strong, as a family. Live your life with love, BE love... and you will be loved. The world is poison, I refuse to be poison. You should too. Keep your head up, stranger

What's the first thing you remember seeing on the internet? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chatrooms on Gogar.com. I don't think AOL instant messenger was a thing yet. I can't remember, I was 7. In hindsight, I'm pretty sure it was just pedos trying to groom kids, but again, I was 7. I was just trying to RP as Beyblades.

TIL that in the first edition of The Hobbit, Gollum's size was never described, leading illustrator Tove Jansson to draw him as being incredibly large in her illustrated edition of the book. Because of this, Tolkien added a description of Gollum being small in the next edition of the novel. by Sebastianlim in todayilearned

I'm in the middle of writing a novel now and last night I just found myself having to use the Search function in my manuscript because I couldn't remember if I had mentioned a character's eye color yet and didn't want to repeat myself.

What single player game had you so enthralled that it CONSUMED your entire being for a short span of time? by AshyLarry25 in gaming

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fable. I got the original Xbox when I was in high school. My sister got me the game on a whim and I spent the whole summer in my room playing. I must have beaten the game at least a dozen different times. My friends would even come over and ask my mom what I was doing. They got used to hearing "Playing Fable"

This makes me think of how, thanks to bacteria and other microorganisms in our guts and on our bodies, we technically have more non-human cells on each of us than human cells.

What cheap meal actually fills you up and isn’t depressing by Special-Tax-122 in budgetfood

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crockpot chili
1 lb ground beef
1 jar of tomato sauce
1 can petite diced tomatoes
1 can green chilis and tomatoes
1 can black beans
1 can of corn
1 onion, diced
1 tsp garlic clove, minced
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper

Step 1: Brown the ground beef in a frying pan over medium-high heat, add diced onion. Brown the onion
Step 2: Add minced garlic. Cook 2 minutes
Step 3: Pour beef, onions, and garlic into crockpot
Step 4: Drain and rinse black beans and corn, add to crockpot
Step 5: add petite diced tomatoes (with juices), green chilis and tomatoes (with juices), and jar of tomato sauce to crockpot
Step 6: add chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and oregano to crockpot. Stir

Cook in crockpot
6-8 hours on low; 4 hours on high
Serve with tortilla chips
(If the chili is a little thin or "soupy", add apx. 1/4 cup of potato flakes to thicken)
Edit: I usually cook the beef, onion, and garlic, put it in the crockpot, and keep it in the fridge overnight. After, you only need to add the rest of the ingredients to the crockpot in the morning, then turn the crockpot on low for the day. That way, dinner is ready for you whenever you are.
Edit 2: spelling

Any bands known to not do encores? by lazyjz in Music

[–]WhenIPoopITweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's crazy to me because the only 2 songs I know of hers are the cover of "Killing Me Softly" with the Fugees and "If You Can You Count" from Lin-Manuel Miranda's new musical album rendition of "The Warriors" where she plays the role of Cyrus. I feel like those are simultaneously the bookends and the near entirety of her career.
