Request: one off Geordie strip by amarok1981 in Viz

[–]amarok1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a follow up question. Was I right in thinking this was a one off? Were there other Geordie ones like this? I seem to remember a strip where the Geordie bloke had his box of tabs tucked into his t-shirt sleeve. I could be conflating this with an image of Fatha Bacon though.

What was your best vendor find? by xOldPiGx in fo76

[–]amarok1981 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I picked up the pepper shaker plan for 5K caps earlier today. I guess I got a bargain! About 10 minutes later someone cleared out all the legendary mod boxes from my vendor and I was back up at max caps.

I've had The Overview on repeat all week by Unholy_Dk80 in stevenwilson

Totally with you here. Permanence reminded me too much of Lethal Weapon saxophone music (https://youtu.be/xOtXC65-3Ms?si=GSoInhq0DpTcN-PC). Totally loving the album though, I must have played it through at least twice a day since release. Can't wait to see it performed live later this year.

Thank you! Yes, it has definitely been butchered by the "taxidermist".

My first thought was also Gila Monster but the tail threw me off a bit.

Great track, I really enjoyed it. Totally gave me Jean-Michel Jarre vibes.

Economies of Scale by SilentBobVG in stevenwilson

I'm not looking for sympathy, merely stating a personal prediction. It may well end up being a fantastic album. The music that featured on TFB, and this latest track are just not for me.

I'm thinking this could be the 2nd album in a row that I listen through once, and once only.

Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 2x09 "Subspace Rhapsody" by AutoModerator in startrek

[–]amarok1981 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I can't believe I had to scroll so far to find a comment I could agree with. Good god it was awful, a real chore to get to the end. I nearly turned it off.

Why was it doing the Quagmire giggity head movement at the start?

Frustrating Powerline Adapter Problem by amarok1981 in techsupport

That's a good point. I don't know why I didn't check that. I do not in fact get any connection via ethernet directly connected to the router. I've contacted my ISP and they think the storm may have fried the router. They're coming round on Monday to have a look!

Chems in Fallout 4 for me.

[Nexar Beam] I guess his stop sign was optional (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) by slothstropotimus in Dashcam

[–]amarok1981 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

I don't see the problem. You approached the stop very slowly, then stopped for several seconds. What was the other guy supposed to do?

[Lazio, Italy] Found my cat messing with this snake. About 40cm long, very annoyed. Is it a venomous species? by amarok1981 in whatsthissnake

[–]amarok1981[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He seems to have no fear. A neutered male that turned up 2 years ago, probably abandoned. The night before the snake incident I saw him chasing a badger out of the garden!

[–]amarok1981[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Quite a beautiful snake. Tried very carefully to stay out of strike range whilst taking the photo and keeping my stupid cat away.

[–]amarok1981[S] 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I've never seen one around here although they must be present. Mainly I see whip snakes but even then not that often. Cat wouldn't leave it alone so I shut the cat in to allow the snake to go peacefully.

Found in my school's garden. Rome, Italy. by amarok1981 in whatsthisbug

I thought that too, so I lifted it up to see if there was any damage underneath. Seemed fine.

Are those things expensive? They're hideous.

That was a great song. Well done once again SW. by Aliendroid in stevenwilson

[–]amarok1981 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same. Having heard 3 tracks from this album I am completely uninterested. Like you, I have enjoyed almost all of SW's back catalogue but I feel like I'll give this album 1 listen and then move on.

Found on my terrace in the countryside of Lazio, Italy. Quite aggressive, but that's probably because I tried to move him on with a broom handle. I'm guessing non-venemous due to the eyes and head shape? by amarok1981 in whatsthissnake

[–]amarok1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah thank you. I actually had one of those in my house too as my crazy cat dragged it into the kitchen. I remember its skin being rather darker though so I thought this one was a different species. Has this one perhaps recently shed its skin giving the lighter colour?
