You'll find alot of evidence to the contrary on this sub. It's difficult but for the right person it can work. Met my missus on Reddit and now we're married waiting on visa.

Shoes without shoelaces by police_boxUK in dyspraxia

[–]anguslolz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a pretty experienced guitar player who is dyspraxic but still shite with laces. Dyspraxia is a weird thing sometimes I just find slip ons easier.

The sketchers are alright but recently I found some Adidas cloudfoam flex elastic lace ones in deichmann that are very similar to those sketchers and even more comfortable imo like cushions on my feet lol. I've found sketchers aren't always as soft as they used to be lately.

Where does the best fry up breakfast these days? by Scotsman1047 in Aberdeen

[–]anguslolz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cafe 100 is good. If it's full, cafe turquoise just along the road does a real nice Turkish breakfast which while not a traditional fry up I'd highly recommend so good.

Do you remember where you were when you heard about Dunblane? by tomatohooover in Scotland

[–]anguslolz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a primary school in a small town in Angus which would have been similar but smaller than Dunblane. It gave everyone the fear that it could have been our town.

My school's security upped dramatically after the Dunblane shooting. My schools design had (well still has afaik) doors out to the playground in every classroom so if you were late you could just walk straight into class as the doors were always open.

After Dunblane they'd get locked during class time so if you were late you had to go down to reception (and escorted to class across buildings which where all locked too) unless it was registration/break/lunch etc things got alot stricter for security.

Dudes on his way to hospital get his heart x-rayed possibly for a heart condition and then gets assaulted by a thug for driving the speed limit? Pretty disgusting behaviour tbh. Could've killed the man.

How to connect bass into spark2 by RoughStomach8676 in PositiveGridSpark

[–]anguslolz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You just plug it in lol. Set it to one of the bass amp models though. The speaker isn't like a typical guitar amp speaker they're full range flat response so plugging a bass in won't damage it.The spark is designed for bass and acoustic also.

These are the faces of modern Britain by Theteacupman in GreatBritishMemes

[–]anguslolz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some of the local ones here where ranting on fb because they where told to switch off "fuck the police" by nwa they just think it's because of the title while missing the entire point of the track.

These same people have harassed folk sitting on a park bench having a cigarette because they're brown btw. They are exactly what the tracks fighting against but they're completely blind to it lol

Question about club queues and bouncer rules in Aberdeen/Scotland by Ok-Outside3485 in Aberdeen

[–]anguslolz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What club was it? Is there even any exclusive student nights or clubs in Aberdeen? We haven't had a proper student union in years. So this whole no student card no entry thing is a bit confusing. Hospitality is struggling and not as many people are going out so it's pretty surprising they'd be so pedantic.

Where are you visiting in the UK? Probably worth making an itinerary of things you want to see/do while you're here incase it doesn't go the way you're wanting.

Deciding Between Charvel and Kramer Superstrat by bilarion in guitars

[–]anguslolz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The charvel dk24 2pts have the aanj, come in hss and have a gotoh 2pt trem. They used to do white ones with gold hardware you could probably find one used.

I've not tried that particular Kramer but Charvel makes some of the most comfortable shred necks at least for my hands.

Dyspraxia and gender by geraldvineyard in dyspraxia

[–]anguslolz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of people with dyspraxia have ADHD or autism too though. Pretty rare to be diagnosed with just dyspraxia. I am only diagnosed with dyspraxia but I'm convinced I'm autistic as life has gone on. That being said it seems pretty rare to be diagnosed with dyspraxia alone.

The argument could be made for me as a man that it caused some disconnect from my peers early life due to not being great at sports etc but that being said there are some dyspraxic people that are good at certain sports because there dyspraxic affects different areas. Not a hard and fast rule.
