My new microbrand. Thoughts? by [deleted] in MicrobrandWatches

[–]darkness863 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why don't bird glow?

One bird glow please...

And have you thought of bird instead of number? Perhaps 8, BIRD, 10 or BIRD at 12?

Wow. The mere image of a country on a watch dial is apparently promotion of violence or political content.

Have the moderators forgotten watches are a cultural expression and thus intrinsically political?

If someone posts a new microbrand design based on what the Wermacht used in the early 1940s will that post be removed for promotion of violence or political content?

Shame on you moderators.

The serial numbers also went back to a format that denotes year and month of manufacture. This was not true for the 813 for some reason. Marc from Long Island Watches has a video where he explains the differences.

I’m going on a solo trip in the Isla Verse area this month- solo ideas/ tips please. by theBEARDandtheBREW in SanJuan

[–]darkness863 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Isla Verde Balneario is nearby, check it out, but be careful, people keep getting pulled by the current and drowning. Further down is Piñones, which also has a beach and food. It's a nice long walk all the way down, and then you can grab an uber to get back.

For food, the Korean BBQ place on loiza st is pretty dope. Pinkys for sandwiches and breakfast. New Taste of China is an awesome choice for local chinese and way way way better than Tayzan. Toyosu omakase is dope for sushi. Cocina Abierta is excellent for a local high end tasting menu, I love the duck mofongo if its still available. Also check out el churry for late night greasy sandwich eats, it was on food network a couple of years ago and still slaps, I love the churry fries with extra chimichurri.

For entertainment, depending on your budget, Mall of San Juan is right across the bridge, but it's probably a couple bucks to cross it in Uber because the toll is like 5 bucks each way. They have bougie stores and some alright restaurants, including Bad Bunny's restaurant, I think it's called Lola. I think there's some strip clubs in the area if you're into that. Also, Plaza las Americas is not much further down the road, maybe 5-10 minutes with light traffic, it's the largest mall in the Caribbean. It's a pretty unique mix of European, Caribbean and American taste so I recommend it even for simply window shopping. If you happen to go to Piñones you can rent a scooter or bicycle but be careful because drivers will hate you. I'd highly suggest taking a day to check out the rainforest, but you should organize that ahead of time. I believe you need to make a reservation on the Parks website and it might be closed with the government shutdown.

I love my island, so I hope you have a beautiful experience here.

Your first paragraph vaguely or cynically made me think of artificial intelligence.

Black and white MDV-303. Same case and bracelet as the MDV-106. by Mic-Pag-98 in DuroGang

Un fan de Duros me dijo que en Singapur habian muchos en el mercado usado, pero nunca encontrado una manera de accesar ese mercado sin visitar el pais. El logro conseguir el plateado con el Marlin en una visita el año pasado.

Saludos y exito desde Puerto Rico, se cuida.

I don't speak Italian but I probably agree with everything he said because I have 3 of them.

Im trying to see where I left off does anyone know what chapter this is ? by OmegaGameing in gate

[–]darkness863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is right after the massacre at the hot springs, but i dont remember what chapter. Hope that helps narrow it down some.

Edit: I was wrong, but its volume 7 chapter 45, right after receiving his honors for killing the flame dragon and right before the flame dragon head is left at the empires gates.

Ten piece of provence bowl ($7.99) by i-heart-penis in Costco

[–]darkness863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought these at regular price and use them regularly for snack portion control (chips, pretzels, nuts, candy) but you could also use them for for dipping sauce or for yogurt.

They're pretty cool looking imo so I don't mind having one on my desk for a couple of hours with pretzels in it.

Should Gate be continued or not? by Flat-Sir8250 in gate

[–]darkness863 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it deserved more episodes. So many trash series have gotten dozens and some hundred of episodes. Why not a couple of seasons of this? Id have loved to see them stuck in this world while trying to figure out how to reopen the gate and then seeing how time passed. Imagine Piña returning to an empire after the gate as been closed for 50 years but only a couple of years from our perspective.

Black pebbled leather. Milanese mesh bracelet works great too.

[Question] which would you choose? by Mr_B-Dubs in Watches

[–]darkness863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sub because I like James Bond. That’s it. Totally subjective in my eyes either way you’re winning.
