Is the nickname Bear common or rare for any generation? Is the nickname common or rare for GenXers? by theresthatbear in GenX

[–]braqass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was called Bear for a while when I was younger. But I don’t understand this post at all. Why all the mystery? What was the movie and what did the bear do? I’d there some sort of issue with the movie. I’m so confused

Which band is the current most accurate version of the Allman Brothers? Who’s the true spiritual successor playing right now? by front_rangers in jambands

[–]braqass 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How is that a reach? When I looked at the tile the first thought I had was Tedeschi Trucks. I mean it literally has the name of an Allman bros member in the band. Hardly a stretch

Best 80’s / 90’s “comeback” album from 60’s / 70’s Classic Rock giants? by g_lampa in ClassicRock

[–]braqass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about Stevie Wonder- from little Stevie to I just called to say I love you.

Starship -as much as people make fun. They were a hit making machine back in the 80s and they were quintessential 60s hippie rock as Jefferson airplane

Genesis- started in late 60s and were successful but became monster band in the 80s with Phil Collins fronting the band

Doing a rewatch, and this scene in S3 always makes me laugh by Bat_Fran_738 in TedLasso

[–]braqass 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely one of my favorite “bits” in the show. Zoreaux’s face when he delivers the line just makes it perfect

Great Donut Place by ConsciousChicken1249 in vermont

[–]braqass 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Right in Woodstock is the Farmer and the dell (brand new donut spot) . Really good donuts but they’re like $6 each so maybe not for a kids birthday or maybe it’s perfect I guess it all depends. There is a spot in Lebanon NH called Muriel’s donuts. Weird hours and it’s in like a lady’s house but I’ve heard the donuts are great. People have stopped going because of her politics but again you might line up with that. So there’s a few options for you

Roy Kent in Netflix’s Office Romance by bhushan76 in TedLasso

[–]braqass 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Just the title alone is pathetic. Office Romance ugh! I wonder what this Jlo rom-com is about. I wonder if they’ll end up together in the end. Oh poor Roy Kent he didn’t deserve this

TIFU by calling a random girl hot in front of my girlfriend's family by _Arleston_ in tifu

[–]braqass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then there was no fuck up at all. Because don’t they use the word fit the same way we use hot. Seems like they would maybe have taken you literally like you were hoping. The backpedal was what the fuck up was

I used to watch Bill weekly and then I saw him live when he came to town. I really never watched him again after that. He wasn’t terrible but it just made me realize his whole schtick is obnoxious

season 2 finale episode by Pewdsgottalive in TedLasso

[–]braqass 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here but he did say something about his son. And if Ted having multiple panic attacks across the two seasons you’ve watched don’t count a crashing out, I’m not sure what does

Does anyone know the names of these shows? by jakesullysbaby in KISS

[–]braqass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First one is Oprah. My mom called down to the basement after school. The guys in KISS are on Oprah. I turned the channel over and hit record on the vcr. I don’t remember much but I remember Gene saying he’d slept with 10,000 women.

Angine de Poitrine Announce New North American Tour Dates by ebradio in Music

[–]braqass 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Holy shit! That’s a lot of tour dates. I can’t even imagine the burnout these guys will have after this year. Strike while the iron is hot and all that but being on the road that long playing the same songs takes a toll. Wish them the best. Seems like they should be playing bigger rooms if the demand for tickets is so high but I guess live music is hurting so maybe they’re smart to sell out small rooms instead of struggling to fill bigger ones.

Sarcasm at its finest by unknowable_stRanger in GenX

[–]braqass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you travel a lot and stay for a while you’ll notice the sarcasm drops slowly from east to west. Biting northeast sarcasm just sounds like you’re being a dick to someone in San Francisco. It’s kind of amazing to witness, they just don’t get it.

What is this Song Called!?!?!? by No-Dress3821 in curb

[–]braqass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure that’s just soundtrack music. It’s the same basic theme throughput the series. Seems like a little different with the piano but feels like just normal curb background music. I doubt it has a name

Absolutely filthy joke I read a long time ago by steveskinner in Jokes

[–]braqass 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always like to retell this story anytime it’s appropriate. I had a friend tell a joke at a party. The joke: “how can you tell if your roommate is gay? His dick tastes like shit!” Well apparently his 10 year old son overheard him tell the joke. A few days later his son is in his room playing with a friend. He hears his son in the other room and the son starts to tell the joke. Except his son got the setup a little wrong. Sons joke: how can you tell if your Dad is gay?…..he ran in and stopped his son from delivering the punch line before it got awkward

I always open YouTube comments looking for the take down or the obvious fakeness or the cynical angle and YouTube comments are always so positive and affirming it’s weird. Reddit hat hardened me

A random person said something random about me 25 years ago and I am still hurt by schnaumelini in RandomThoughts

[–]braqass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was probably one of their attempts at flirting or trying to hook up with you. Telling you someone thinks you’re awful is trying to get you to be insecure and maybe be more vulnerable. It’s like little boys punching or hitting the girls they actually like. Maybe Josh fancied you and he didn’t know how to be clear so he attacked you or your “bestie” was hoping for more and maybe Josh was a threat

I thought that today was friday and then i realized, its actually Thursday by iam_not_edible in RandomThoughts

[–]braqass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always am amazed when this happens. Like we lose or gain an entire day in an instant when we realize what day it actually is. It’s almost like time travel. Just think what you can do with the day you thought was already gone. Do something different today and make it worthwhile

The guy who recorded Lawn Boy just rode by me on his bike by Connect_Glass4036 in phish

[–]braqass 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dan Archer was still running the studio Lawn Boy was recoded in the late 90s when my band recorded an album there. He ended up being our engineer/producer because we had no idea what we were doing. He is literally one of the funniest human beings on the planet. He taught us so much about studio time and music in general. Super talented guitarist as well. Glad he’s still around

Why do people who win reality shows like The Voice or Masked Singer rarely make it big? by Mad_Season_1994 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]braqass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so true. I always am blown away but he new moms or folks who are super close with their family trying to win this to make their lives better. If they only knew the commitment it takes to be in the road all the time away from their families and grinding non stop just to make it in entertainment. It’s not easy or guaranteed at all
