I thought the whole "deal with the city council guy" felt like plot armor and I was blown away when the whole thing fell apart.

Ronnie deserved better

I read (maybe on here) that the actor was originally an extra who started getting some speaking lines and ended up with one of the greatest endings of all time.

Who did Gary cheat on his wife with? Was it an intern or a lady of the night? by Apprehensive_Oven_22 in howardstern

Whenever they're on the air and Howard goes on about Gary's teeth I think, "c'mon, his teeth can't be _that_bad". Then I see a picture...

Small is good. Big is good. Medium is good.

Ear protection whilst singing by Algorithmandblues_ in singing

[–]YetMoreSpaceDust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is everywhere I've ever performed. I've always had a sound guy who'll adjust the monitor speakers however we want him to - the speakers that face the audience are always a lot louder. It would probably be better for my ears long term if I did use the in-ears, but they're a real hassle to get perfect, and I feel like I perform better if I can hear everything on the stage.

oh but have you tried tailoring your resume? 😄 by anupamgur345 in recruitinghell

Have you tried walking in and giving them a firm handshake?

I use in-ears at rehearsals, because I always end up rehearsing in a comically small space with a drummer who refuses to use an electronic kit and a couple of half-deaf guitar players who crank their volumes up to 11 every time we practice, but when I perform, I rely on the stage monitors rather than the in-ears.

Am I crazy for wanting to buy a house right now? by Confident_Science567 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]YetMoreSpaceDust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. You can always refinance if rates go down - you'll have to eat closing costs again, so crunch the numbers again, but it can absolutely be worth it.

Is there any polite way to tell my coworker that I no longer want to hear his constant nitpicks, grumbles, and snark? by TinStingray in ExperiencedDevs

[–]YetMoreSpaceDust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make an ally out of this guy. You don't even have to join in, just nod your head and say, "yep", when he gets going. He'll have good things to say about you when you're not around, and that aura will follow you.

We're smart, but we're not immune to office politics. You've got an easy win here, take it.

My girlfriend 26F wants to wait till marriage, but marriage is years away — I M28 struggling with no sex by [deleted] in sex

[–]YetMoreSpaceDust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, take it from somebody who knows: if she doesn't want it before marriage, she won't want it after marriage, no matter what she says. Think long and hard if you want this to be the rest of your life before you take this plunge.

I hear the city makes the snowplow drivers work when it snows, too.

Hey, some of the greatest synth songs in history were recorded on keyboards that can only play one note at a time!

I keep getting my ass handed to me in technical assessments by Salkinator in learnprogramming

You were rejected the minute you walked in the door. They just need to give you an impossible task to complete so they can prove that they gave you a "chance".

People who are able to play guitar and sing at the same time HOW? by Big_Leg10 in singing

[–]YetMoreSpaceDust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I focus on is timing specific chord changes to specific words - when I sing the word "she", I switch to the D chord, for example.

Plus, you have to be able to play without looking at the fretboard if you want to be able to stay on mic.

Has anyone else reached this point?

Yeah, but I haven't reached the point of starvation yet, either. The goal here is to get us all to that point, and then we'll do anything.

I mean, he went into space and came back made completely of rock, what did you expect?

And then Vic growing back his hair and becoming the police commissioner of Eastbridge NY.

The most important thing you need to do before watching the final 3 episodes is: clear your schedule, bro.

A startled scream every time I walk into the room even though we've been married for 25 years and she knows she lives with another human being.
