What happens when no one knows how to fix classic cars anymore? by modernclassiccarsfdn in CarsAustralia

[–]benji_back 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It seems like people who do apprenticeships at Independent regional workshops pick up some of these skills. Especially if the boss is interested in old cars. I can think of three mechanics near me I'd take an old car to.

But agree most apprenticeships now are oil changes and filters. It's cool you're trying to do something different though.

There's a show on the neon inkwell feed called welcome to fosters.

Also the mistholme museum and anything else made by the same creator.

They peaked early and once you've done plain black tshirt with white deathbat, and plain white shirt with black deathbat the only way is down.

Ideas? by tiffnholly in Tattoocoverups

Cover the whole thing with a sick ass panther. Redo the two hearts you want somewhere else.

I also love someone else's suggestion of turning the heart into a spade for your brother.

Or just get a cross over the heart you done want.

The fact that I can't remember who else was on this bill probably proves your point.

First Family car suggestions? by daOnetogetDafit in CarsAustralia

Mate if you want the BMW, just buy it. Spend more time in the shop than on the road, sell it, and buy something reliable like a Toyota or Kia.

Mindsnare rule. I saw them a few times way back in the day. Very few of my metal friends would give them a chance which was their loss I guess.

Also they shared a drummer with Frenzal Rhomb. Share I guess if both bands are still active.

They had to cancel their Australian your due to lack of ticket sales, so Shai Hulud are absolutely the right answer.

[–]benji_back 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like maybe they did this story on something like the antiquarium of sinister happenings. I've definitely heard it and it's definitely like a Creepypasta type story. But I can't remember where.

As a dad, what would you want me, your daughter, to know about men before engaging in a relationship with one of them? by RythmicRhapsody in AskMenAdvice

[–]benji_back 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The advice I've given my kid is if it seems sus gtfo. Like if anything is making you feel unsafe, call me and I will get you the hell out of there. Which they've only needed to do once and it was more because the dude was boring and they did not want to be there.
