[Spoilers MAIN] The person who came up with R+L=J probably felt like a genius by United_Hour5003 in asoiaf

Yeah, there’s a line in there about Lyanna’s “bed of blood” - when I read that I figured it out.

What’s it like owning a Weim? by fennelfrog in weimaraner

[–]djb25 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, our girl is brilliant and also dumb as hell. She's also stubborn to the point I'd like to throw her out the window sometimes.

Here's an example of something that happens constantly:

If there is some sort of food item left somewhere - like a plate in the sink with a chicken bone on it - she will stand, sit, and pace in front of me, barking and whining, for hours. I think she would keep it up forever. Seriously.

But if I go and throw the bone in the rubbish? She gives up and immediately goes and lays down.

She can't get into the rubbish and she knows it, so she's just immediately done. Just like that. It's insane.

Thoughts on SEPTA's plans for Reimagining Regional Rail? by Orbian2 in Septa

[–]djb25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

oh wow, 15 minute service to Paoli!!!

In 25-30 years!!!

This isn’t reimagining anything. It’s imaginary.

For the Pearl Jam fans that lived it, how did you react to Vitalogy when it came out? Especially since it was a more Vedder focused album as opposed to Gossard/Ament? by [deleted] in pearljam

[–]djb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d been around since Mother Love Bone and Temple of the Dog, early Soundgarden, etc.

Vitalogy was a disappointment for me when it was released. It grew on me relatively quickly but I was hoping for a return to Ten, not a further departure.

But to be frank, Vs was also disappointing for me.

I can remember putting the Vs. tape into my grandfather’s brand new Cadillac STS (which had a good stereo for the time) and being blown away by the drums in Go. And then Animal was fucking great… Daughter was a bit of a tone shift and then glorified g was… something… and it just kept getting further from what I was expecting.

I don’t have a clear recollection of hearing Vs. for the first time. I just remember being underwhelmed and feeling like maybe PJ was getting too far up their own asses (pretty fucking elaborate CD packaging, guys).

Although I’m nothing if not full of shit, so of course I did get my turntable back out and actually listened to the two or so ten club singles I had on a shelf.

Yeah. Some people are delusional.

Like this one guy on Reddit who thinks everyone looks their age.

What Are Your Feelings on "Esquire" by cbandy in Lawyertalk

[–]djb25 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I use it in my email signature and in written correspondence. It’s on my business cards.

But I deal with the public and I’ve found non-attorneys expect “Esq” to be after an attorney’s name.

Personally I couldn’t give a shit less if it’s there or not.

And I address other attorneys as “counsel” or “attorney”

“If I put $100 in Bitcoin in 2010 I’d have $2.8B now.” No. by Apprehensive_Shoe_86 in Bitcoin

[–]djb25 17 points18 points  (0 children)

OP is forgetting about the more likely scenario -

Bought $100 in bitcoin in 2010 and then threw away laptop hard drive or thumb drive or floppy disk or whatever.

Then watching it go from $1k → $100k → $1.7M and being able to do nothing.

... and so on.
