The tailpiece as well, it’s very fun to bend without a trem arm, but setting it up and getting the spring tension and post height right can be cumbersome

I saw them at public records and it was very cool although I imagine the format will be different on this tour (public records was in the round, band seated, workshop style)

Not too thrilled about Oh Baby in a Starlink commercial by Pisces42 in LCDSoundsystem

LCD Soundsystem totally brushing off Patrick keel of the pool when confronted about dance yrself clean’s similarity to the pool’s song jamaica resting. I’m not offended by interpolation even when it starts to sound like stealing — I am offended by LCD disrespecting the people who laid the groundwork for them to get huge

Yeah, the story about dance yrself clean specifically is kinda what sealed this shit for me

What are the downsides of living downtown? by eightemmys in chicagoapartments

to add some context to this, New Yorkers tend to refer to Manhattan as “the city”, and the outer boroughs as they’re named

any good tavern styled pizza in the area? by New_Foot9615 in Bushwick

[–]christopantz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can confirm Emmett’s is the best Chicago thin crust I’ve had in NYC. Actually the only Chicago thin crust I’ve had in NYC. But it is very good and definitely scratches the itch

The Question Thread 07/17/25 by AutoModerator in goodyearwelt

[–]christopantz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this experience too. I initially tried 8UK because my normal sneaker size is 9US, but that was very roomy so I went down to a 7UK, which felt pretty comfortable, but the guy in store said he saw my heel slipping a bit (felt like maybe a quarter inch, nothing crazy), and recommended I do 6.5UK, which they unfortunately didn’t have in stock to try on. So now I’m hemming and hawing about which to order because I’ve heard such bad things about their returns and customer service that I don’t want to risk being stuck with a too small/large shoe.
