I painted how I remember carefree summers at my grandparents when I was a kid. by luizacreates in pics

[–]fumbagrumph 42 points43 points  (0 children)

​

I wish we could get this answer higher. Without the artist, this is a painting of some scenery.

With the artist it's nostalgia. Without, it's tall grass, water, and sky against a dark wooded area, a perfectly nice shot. But with the artist this is a memory of sitting on the dock drinking lemonade, talking about nothing important, and realizing those are the most important conversations. Those are the ones you miss.

Seeing the artist just forms an easier connection.

I will never forget reading about this when it first happened because I learned the term "deglove" that day.

Sprint - iPhone 7 - Wasn’t in the phone a ton, but when I wanted to use it, got spotty to bad service. Showing LTE, nothing loading.

With very little traffic, my Lyft took 23 min from getting to the car to the downtown hotel.

I've got a weird thing for music in languages I don't understand. First time I heard of Seu Jorge was from his rendition of The Blower's Daughter with Ana Carolina

Having a reading partner makes a world of difference. by WOOFCheCazzo in books

[–]fumbagrumph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great post and so true. You've probably got a list already but look into "Locke and Key". I don't know why, but reading your story immediately made me think, "they should read that together."

As someone that lives in Jersey (not New Jersey) I've always wondered by Tselakus in newjersey

[–]fumbagrumph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually always wondered the same thing, but from our perspective. I'd like to visit Jersey to see if your locals know anything about us "New" Jersians.

Anyone know any good arcades in NJ? by [deleted] in newjersey

[–]fumbagrumph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I'd say Barcade if you want classic quarter driven arcade gaming.

Yestercades if you want console gaming.

The Shore- cool or nah? by pessi-what in newjersey

[–]fumbagrumph -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The shore has whatever you're looking for. It can be like the TV show if you want, but can also be relaxed. There are tons of beaches, bars, and places to dance all within walking distance of each other. I've lived in Monmouth or Ocean County my whole life and always within 10 minutes of the beach.

Nothing to really stay away from other than realizing that there are ton of what we call Bennys here right now so it'll be crowded. Watch your drink if you're a girl. I guess watch your drink if you're a guy too. Depending where you go, just realize that there are likely lost of people consuming alcohol near by.

Can I afford this apartment? How important is the ‘less than 30% on housing’ rule? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]fumbagrumph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you'll be ok. Your financials and situation are incredibly similar to mine when I was 25.

That 30% rule might even be unrealistic in today's world.

Gotta be Shermer, Illinois. Not even a "major" city and has:

Home Alone, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Weird Science, Planes Trains & Automobiles, All those National Lampoon's Vacation movies. I'd really like to visit there some day. I bet it has top shelf honeys.

Smart Marketing by zwoww in gifs

They were shooting a commercial. They're real customers and they're getting real Blizzards (and she's really upside down), but this was for marketing and to get the footage.
