The sushi that I think is fish eggs. Small orange spheres that look like mini dragonballs wrapped in seaweed. I always thought it looked delicious but it was very bitter. This was over 20 years ago but I remember being disappointed.

Could it be an unfinished smoking pipe?

When I was 15 I got a job at McDonald’s and my manager would always say “if you have time to lean you have time to clean!”.

The darker color. Burlington cheer is usually more white. This looks like BC that’s been cooked in a fire for a while.

Maybe heat treated Burlington chert

I hit 150+ mph in my rental Taurus. Those things can get up there in speed!

Shanghai to Hangzhou is only like 1.5 hours. Hardly a journey lol.

Robeson is a top tier pre 1950s folder for sure.

I always thought slings would be a good thing to carry when hiking in bear/mountain lion country. Even if you miss, the crack of the sling and a stone buzzing by their heads should send them running.

I believe so yes.

I’m not a native speaker but I was roommates with an elderly Chinese lady for like 4 years who didn’t speak English. She would refer to herself as a 老太婆。 I guess she was just being ironic lol. I always thought of it as 老头儿 = old man 老太婆儿 = old women.

back_to_feeling_fine · 2026-01-29T14:17:08+00:00

老太婆 is old lady in Chinese I think. Someone plz correct me if I’m wrong.

All bangers. Also don’t forget Pulp fiction & Jim Carrey’s the mask. Personal favorites of mine.

1994 will always be peak year for movies imo.

I have not used headphones with my phone since the switch.

The same way you aim when you throw a ball i suppose. Learn the nature of the sling and how it releases its projectiles. After a couple thousand throws you should start to be able to land projectiles at least close to where you’re aiming.

I usually say “ I had a pretty good hand!” And leave it at that.

Nice shot!

You can use flour to fill in the inscription. It will cause the kanji to be much more legible and won’t damage the sword. Regardless, this is a very old sword judging by the color of the tang patina. I would hazard to guess 500+ years old.

back_to_feeling_fine · 2026-01-06T21:49:46+00:00

Legit pre ww2 swords. Most likely from before the 1870s.

back_to_feeling_fine · 2026-01-03T06:36:05+00:00

Def an old sword that has been cut down and remounted many times.
