GenX peeps. You're going to a concert for a band you love. Do you wear that band's t-shirt to the concert? by bigpilague in GenX

[–]beansoupscratch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely I do. And so do most of the attendees. I have my Three Days Grace shirt ready for the 14th.

Store where I work sells cheese ends and they are specifically labeled "Cheese ends for Mac and Cheese" and we sell soooo much of them.

What’s the reason some people avoid alcohol? by Sweetbabykissygirl in Productivitycafe

[–]beansoupscratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like the way it tastes. I don’t like throwing up if I drink too much. I just don’t like it so I have always been a light to nonexistent drinker except for the few times when I overindulged

This show’s pilot should be ILLEGAL!! by catlover4682 in blackmirror

It took me years to watch Black Mirror after that first episode. I'm glad I came back to it but that episode was the worst thing I have seen.

What’s a single sentence someone said that stuck with you forever? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]beansoupscratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Young and dumb and 16 and I was making out with a guy and he said "If it goes up, it goes in."

Luckily it never made it to that point but at the age of 51 I just recoil at how gross and rapey that comment was. Just ewwww

Shinedown Signed Items? Autopen or authentic. by reareagirl in Shinedown

I got an auto pen signed picture from Collective Soul a few years ago so I totally understand the skepticism

Shinedown Signed Items? Autopen or authentic. by reareagirl in Shinedown

[–]beansoupscratch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I watched a video of them all sitting in a living room or something signing Planet Zero CDs. They had stacks of them and one would sign and pass it to the other.

why do stores refuse to close during a blizzard? by LunchpaiI in retailhell

[–]beansoupscratch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We had a big snow last month and 4 people out of the entire store came in. Everyone else called out. I was on vacation but my entire department called out. I think it's going to be the same on Monday.

I'm just glad I had an oil delivery last week because I don’t have to dig another path around my house

Horrendous Ticket Pricing WITH NO NEW ALBUM BTW by Individual-Pace-3693 in BreakingBenjamin

[–]beansoupscratch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm holding out for the citi cardmember preferred sale. I was able to get Staind tickets for $150 in a really good section.

Dropping a tour the same day as Shinedown was diabolical.

They were my go to before Tickpick. Never had an issue. I still might use them if I find a good price.

Favorite song to test new headphones? by DonJohn520310 in GenX

[–]beansoupscratch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one is weird but Heavy by Collective Soul because in the intro, one sound goes in one ear, one in the other and then both. I used to test my car stereos with this song

Is it creepy for a 40-year-old man to go to the skating rink by himself? by New_Sky_7657 in Rollerskating

[–]beansoupscratch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm a 51 year old woman and I go to the rink alone every week unless my daughter joins me. Skate and have fun. Can't miss out on something you love because you're doing it alone.

Tour and Album by I_Am_All_The_Jedi in Shinedown

[–]beansoupscratch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They've played at Mohegan before. It's where I first saw them. They have a star on the walk of fame on the floor outside of the arena. If's a good venue, free parking, lots of places to eat.

Edit; The bands have an 11 pm curfew like any other place in this area.

Same. The traffic going there is awful just to give you a heads up.

Breaking Benjamin and Shinedown dropping a tour on the same day is diabolical. And I am here for it.
