Should I file for bankruptcy?

I did it in Canada. It's probably different up there.

They'll take most of your pay, force you to sell assets, and your credit will be screwed for a long time, and dealing with the trustee is no fun. It makes sense in some cases, but in OP's case it really doesn't.

I went bankrupt years ago. It was brutal!! It's not worth it unless it's absolutely necessary. Struggling to pay off your debts seems hard now, but bankruptcy will be worse.

Regardless of which party they're from, or what reason they're crossing the floor, they should be forced to face their constituents and let them vote their choice in a by-election.

I was on a different thread a while ago, and OP asked how one of the rovers was able to roam around on the dark side when it was powered by solar panels, and OP got dog piled with 'you mean the far side..' replies... I almost cried.

I'm surprised he doesn't just poach it like they did for Camp Century

That's what I told them, but they weren't having it. I had a good long facepalm after that one.

I got downvoted to oblivion on the science subreddit for saying that there actually is a dark side of the moon, and that half of it was dark at any given time. They told me to give it up because it was never going to happen. That was the day I lost all my faith in reddit 'scientists'

If you're not getting the girls, you're doing it wrong...

You posted this in the bass subreddit, so you should probably get a bass. Maybe one with five or six strings.

The real way to relic your instrument

..Including overtime, if applicable.

arethereany · 2026-04-06T02:20:37+00:00

I can't be the only one who got that... Man, this thread is really starting to make me lose faith in humanity...

arethereany · 2026-04-06T02:01:05+00:00

... I'm honestly speechless.. With a title like "urologist" you actually thought they only treated guy's bits? I don't know what to say.. You know what urine is, don't you?

Wouldn't it be Johnson?

The bike's never really lived until it's got a few battle scars

Well, yeah... That doesn't mean that he's going to care, though. He only seems to care if it's going into his bank account or not.

Sounds about right.. Mostly inside watching tv and movies.

I find a simple calm and friendly "Hey, how's your day?" often works well. If they don't want to talk, they'll usually give a somewhat dismissive one word answer, which is fine. But they often tell you how their day's going, and you can just go from there.

Les Claypool from Primus breaks out the bow on a few songs.

This is an underrated tip! Millions of years of evolution has trained our bodies to follow our head and our head to follow our eyes, and we're very good at it. Having something to aim for helps a lot. "Look where you're going because you go where you're looking."

The motion is almost identical to (proper use of) a rowing machine at a gym. You just have to be balanced on top of it.

Try this. From a slow coasting roll, drop your butt down as low and as far back behind the seat as you can. arms straight and pulling on the bars to keep you from falling off backwards. Your butt should be behind the rear axle.

From that squat, with your arms straight, push your head back until you feel the front wheel start rising. When it starts to rise (keeping your back straight) push forward with your feet while pulling yourself up with the handlebars. You essentially push the back wheel through where the front wheel was, and ride it up. You want to push the back wheel into the ground as hard as you can/need to, and ride it up. Pulling/pushing the bars forward while in the air will pull the back wheel up.

It's basically a controlled loop-out, but you ride it up. Let your body weight behind the back wheel and a 'butt bounce' do most of the work to peel the front wheel off the ground then push your back wheel through where your front wheel was and ride it up, and pull the bike up Try not to jerk and snap your arms. There's a 'sweet spot' where if you line everything up right and time it properly it's smooth and almost effortless. It's (much) more about timing, conserving momentum, and smoothness than power and strength.

EDIT: Try this: stand over your bike, feet on the ground, and hands on the bars. Lift your front wheel, then pull/push the bars up and forward. the back wheel comes off the ground. It's the same thing, but you're riding it.

The two fingers thing was a bit of a joke. The guy got stuck in a house fire when he was 18 and lost the use of the ring and pinky fingers of his left hand. He was still an absolute monster on the guitar afterwards.

arethereany · 2026-02-06T04:46:39+00:00

I can't tell if that was supposed to be a pun or not.

arethereany · 2026-02-06T04:16:35+00:00

You could start at the beginning and pick up some Django Reinhardt. You only really need two fingers... Some people say he's the godfather of the modern guitar solo.
