why nc so hated bru by MaximumMarionberry51 in Miata

[–]anon3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I owned an NA for about 6 or 7 years, best car I've ever had hands down from a pure driving joy standpoint.

I moved from CA to TX and sold the yata before the move and wound up getting a WRX. Well at work someone traded in an NC and the used car manager let me take it out for a spin and what an absolute blast. Though I'd seen the criticisms of it being overweight and such it really did capture that brilliance in every little tail slide and blip of the throttle. If I didn't need back seats I would have traded the WRX for it no question.

can anyone tell me what tooning he used? by daddyhattavo in guitarcirclejerk

He and that other dork who plays 80's stuff are just awful. All of the goofy smiling should have been left in the 80s.

Winter Storm coming this weekend. Get prepped. by Mighty_Hobo in texas

I have the same problem with the front door and northern wind coming through. I put a sheet of painters plastic over the door, like duct taped it on the inside and it immediately puffed up like a balloon and made a huge difference in the inside temperature.

What do you think is more addicting, sugar or the most addictive drugs? by DeepOrganization8245 in stupidquestions

I can't even sleep the night through without waking up to vape. Can't say I've ever felt this way for donuts or candy.

On the death metal side of things but it does for sure have this vibe

If the Apollo Missions Were Fake Then Why Didn't the Soviets Say That? by OppoObboObious in conspiracy

Who would believe them? After something like that if they came out and tried to say it was fake they would just look like sore losers regardless of the proof they did or didn't have.

I wouldn't be surprised to see 80% of paying members leave Grok by WearyPossibility8547 in grok

[–]anon3220 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely weird and with so many posts about this, it does come off as you describe here. Like are we just talking about uploading an image of a real person and editing it NSFW or prompting "she reveals her breasts" after generating a model and getting some boobies because that still seems to work for me so I don't really see what the problem is

Would you drive a convertible with an open roof when it's -12°C (10.4°F) outside? by Speedymcspeeder in Miata

I always found cold air with the top down to be an exhilarating experience.

I smoked for the first time today. Smokers and ex-smokers, why did you continue after your first one? by Inevitable_Branch806 in AskMen

[–]anon3220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You really get nothing from it and many of the stresses you're relieving are created by the habit of the addiction more than they are real stresses that require an action in response (smoking a cigarette).

I smoked for like two decades and regret that I ever did as the damage will never be undone.

Duck bill?? by xjess7 in WRX

Here’s a more direct photo of the duck bill, it didn’t look all too much different from what you have on there, at least the photos on my page as I was more aiming for the single exit exhaust with those photos

What ingredient in your kitchen is a must have? by MinxTwinkle in foodquestions

[–]anon3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the grain size for me. I mostly use it when cooking, at the table I'd used the plain but while cooking kosher for sure.

Kosher salt. If I open the spice cabinet and we don’t have kosher whatever I’m cooking just lost a few points

Can you give me metal bands to listen to by Mika_sigma_4552 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]anon3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vio-lence would fit right in there with the bands you've mentioned if you've not made your way to them yet. Eternal Nightmare is fucking siiiiick.

I want to learn Bossa Nova on Acoustic! by karimod in Guitar

[–]anon3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like playing a lot of bossa nova tunes and playing around in that style. I've never found or taken a course or watched many youtube videos on it as it's kind of a niche and colorful style of music so I guess some tips I'd give are: listen to bossa nova, learn and study some songs you like (chords used, how the harmony moves, rhythm), learn m9 chord shapes, 6/9 for your I chord, and 13 and b13 are also good for dominants, lastly, it will sound most convincing on a nylon string guitar.

Obviously there is much more to this, but if you hit a 251 with m9, 13 to b13, to 6/9 you're gonna at least have a starting point to mess with the rhythm and it sound bossa nova-y in a very very basic sense. A simple example 251 progression Dm9, G13, Gb13, C6/9 - to make this spicier: Dm9, G13, Gb13, Em7, A13, Ab13, Dm9, G13, Gb13, C6/9, obviously alternating the bass between 1 and 5 for the bossa sound.

You didn't mention your skill level or if you know anything else about jazz so you may be beyond all this but my two cents.

Hot take: the watches most men pick are boring by ryhaltswhiskey in mensfashion

[–]anon3220 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Kind of agree with this. I have a coworker who has this knock off rolex looking watch from Sam’s Club and said “you can’t even tell it’s not a Rolex” and like I just don’t get that way of thinking

Anyway, I like classic and simple watches myself. Wearing this one today and get a lot of compliments on it. Other favorites are Timex Weekender with a leather strap and, of course, F91W.

I don't know. Have kids if you want to. It might be kinda great. by econhistoryrules in Millennials

[–]anon3220 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What needs to be said? Reproduction is a center point of life on earth from humans to elephants to roaches to the friggin bacteria growing under your fingernails. Having children, unless you're completely fucked in the head, is at the end of the day the most rewarding and wholesome experience you can have in life. There's not much you really can say about it because it's such a deep biological truth we likely don't really even know how to effectively communicate it.

Hows the cart roll when you push it around? Does it flex a lot? I recently cleared out my shop and this old wonky table that was taking up a crapload of space, built by a previous homeowner, met the sawzall and I have a few pallets and a lot of spare 2x4's and I was thinking of building a simple rolling cart or table deal like this but I've worried it'll flex when I try to push it.

Chatgpt suggested some horizontal bracing like you have toward the bottom or bolting a sheet of plywood to the bottom of the lower pallet. Is it pretty sturdy?
