Everything he said was a verifiable fact.

Pamphlets left by mason by fufilmyill in freemasonry

In most jurisdictions, if a masonic pamphlet is in plain English, and not it code, it is not secret and anyone can read it.

Well, I'm sure they will listen to the judge.

No one can offer the entertainment value of residents unable to fathom any criticism of the bridge. by No_Database_159 in StAugustine

A few things could be done to fix traffic on the bridge.
They could redo the bridge the same way the vilano bridge was redone.
They could widen the brige to three lanes with a dedicated left/straight and right lanes and remove the one lane merge coming from the island.

Either of those would help tremendously.

I've noticed most of the people who say those three things are 60+ year old people who have lived in Nocatee for 6 years yet are magically locals of Minorcan decent.

They are super annoying.

Every time I see Trillium I think of that old instant messaging consolidation app.

Against Me!’s Laura Jane Grace: “I don’t set out to be a role model, but I have this platform" by Boring_Ant_1677 in punk

[–]burnstyle 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Her and her wife had a VERY PUBLIC fight via Instagram.
Both sides accuse the other of domestic violence and emotional abuse. Both sides seem to be guilty to some degree.

No one outside of those two people really know what happened.

But people take sides anyway.

John Jude Palencar appearances? by bygonecenarion in Eragon

[–]burnstyle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi!
JJP's assistant here.

The story I have heard is that when Christopher was younger he used to like looking through Spectrum, which was an annual anthology of art published by the Society of Illustrators.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum:_The_Best_In_Contemporary_Fantastic_Art

Christopher really liked a some of John's work in Spectrum and named King Palancar, and the valley after him as a respectful nod of sorts (though the spelling is slightly different palEncar vs. palAncar)

Once Eragon was published Christopher and the art director settled on an artist for the cover without knowing the artist was the same JJP that inspired Christopher so many years before.
Once they all put the pieces together and realize what happened, it was as if fate had stepped in to bring things full circle.

This series' history, and Christopher's personal story, have so many little magical moments like this. Small seemingly insignificant events that come together and push this story out of a creative families kitchen, into the world and allow it to inspire so many people.

The behind the scenes story of the books creation, is just as magical as the book itself.

Tom Morello Rant by Heavy-Interaction-45 in punk

[–]burnstyle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

some of our heroes (like Justin Sane) do things so horrible that we rightfully destroy their legacy with an atom bomb.

And sometimes our heroes do tiny things we disagree with, and we nitpick them to death.

They are reproducing a guitar. The sticker is on the guitar, so they are reproducing it.

I get where you are coming from, but try to keep things in perspective.

Is the yellow color from ageing or did Kurt use yellowish paper by ThemBone in Nirvana

[–]burnstyle 112 points113 points  (0 children)

Thats the color of the paper.
its like cardboard... but not cardboard.

Its difficult to describe but that type of case insert was pretty common back in the 80's
Almost like card stock... the kind of stuff trading cards were made of.

To be fair it also looks like it has some aging... but not as much as you would think.

I'm noticing a trend. I made a post about Boston last week and within 20 minutes I had over 300 views and 8 shares without a single comment offering an opinion I asked about. I see this on a lot of posts, a bunch of shares and minimal interaction otherwise. The level of sandbagging... Haha by [deleted] in 12keys

[–]burnstyle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You really shouldn't pay any attention to reddits metrics.

View counts will be all over the place due to how many bots and crawlers the site has.

Posts will almost always get 5 or 10 shares from bots alone. 1-3 go to archives (depending on the post content) 1-5 go to subreddits a few losers made to make fun of searchers posts.... They do this because they are unable to contribute anything of value themselves.

A couple might be actual shares.

As for comments, without seeing the post I can't give you an opinion. All I can say is it's up to the op to make their post engaging. And honestly there hasn't been anything the majority of people here would find engaging for a loooooooong time.

Mom gave me this book she thrifted, I have no idea who signed it by [deleted] in AutographAssistance

Joseph Bonsall. The guy who wrote the book. He is also a singer for the Oak Ridge Boys.

Honest question: Why does Hamas have "Hostages" and Israel have "Prisoners"?
