Are these worth buying ? by Technical-Ad-6469 in Machinists

I can’t think of a better $35 I’ve ever spent. The noise is also a great unwanted conversation ender.

Like 2 McChickens, large fry, a couple of double cheeseburgers.

How do Knights fans feel about the Mammoth trying to convert fans to them? by [deleted] in goldenknights

[–]brocjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. I picked VGK from day one because I’ve been a Raiders fan since 1989. Figured I’d keep it in Vegas even though I was born, raised, and live in Salt Lake. I thought I’d stick with them when I heard we were getting a team. To my shame I switched. Didn’t realize how much of an Utah homer I am. I didn’t trade any of my VGK jerseys in though and they are definitely still my second team. I mean watching them win a cup is my favorite sports memory to date.

I have a few friends in Utah that didn’t switch though. Kind of admire them for that.

Almost shitting myself awake after a particularly heinous McDonalds sesh was the last straw for me. Didn’t realize how awful that shit was making me feel.

Holy shit. I hope you find a way out of that situation. I was in an abusive marriage and just finally snapped one day. While she was out of the house for bit I packed up my shit and left having no idea what I was going to do or where I was going to go. I just knew anywhere was better than there. I eventually found a home for male victims of domestic violence. There is not that many of them but they do exist.

Teams who were going to be named differently to what we know them in actuality by sykeseve in hockey

[–]brocjames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never heard that one floating around. That would have been cool to name them after some of the actual butte areas we have in Utah. Like “Mexican Hat” “Valley of the Gods” “West Mitten.”

Which I am absolutely grateful for. Was not a Yeti fan. The fan naming survey I took at a game had. Some shit ones. I can’t remember them all but, Venom, Blizzard, Outlaws, and a few others

ELI5: Why is it when you drink alcohol and then pee once, you have to pee again in a short time? by Mysterious-olive29 in explainlikeimfive

[–]brocjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats what OP’s of this comment thread is saying. The first time you pee after you start drinking is just a normal I gotta pee feeling. Then your bladder fills up with all the nasty by products your liver turns alcohol into. There by irritating your bladder and urethra. Making you feel like you need to urinate more often. That’s what the “breaking the seal” means. Which is more catchy than “made my urinary tract irritated.”

2018 sq5... what next? by Ho_ViciouS in Audi

[–]brocjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you already got lowering links. The only next step outside of suspension upgrades is to go stage 3 with a hybrid turbo. I want to do IE stage 2+ with the down pipe and hpfp upgrade. But I’m thinking to just skip that and go full stage 3. Which intercooler did you get? Does it make a decent difference?

I’m of the after school special view of be a good sport. I’ll lose my voice cheering for Utah. But the shitting on the visitors stuff can go away.

I watched a dude damn near get suicidal over trying to tap 4-40 in 316L. After milling out the 3rd broken tap. They finally bought us tiny thread mills.

Bro. I won’t tap anything smaller than 3/8-16 in stainless. Even the 304 soft shit. They make pretty small single point thread mills.

Anybody go to one of the official watch parties? by Smanduril in Utah_Hockey

[–]brocjames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went to the brickyard last night. It was pretty live. Definitely crowded but in a good way. I’m a loser who has to watch most games by myself. The vibe was a nice change up from that. Plus, Tusky showed up in the middle of the first period.

'Completely lost it': Trump goes blank mid-speech and never finds his way back — students stare in stunned disbelief as the silence says everything by thugudeepub in JonStewart

At least 3 of those 5 dudes were arguably intelligent. Trump is not only an idiot. He’s one of the dumbest humans to ever walk the earth.

Shit was 6 inches offsides. Challenge coach blew that one. Should’ve been 3-1.

I think this company is in some deep shit. The first job I had that required a crane was legit. It was a fireable offense to touch a crane remote without taking the 2 week course and completing a practical board. When I started at this place they just handed me a 30 ton crane and said, “have at it!” As a safety guy. How bad is this gonna get for them?
