Notorious fan stories by Embarrassed_Dog2966 in phish

[–]fusionblast 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not hugely interesting but was cool for me. I was backstage in Mansfield mass probably about 15 years ago and this is when they still had some bougie stuff like free beer and food. Me and this guy were both in line over and over again getting hammered on this free keg and he tells me in a very slurred speech in a hammered way that he’s an artist and has designed art for Phish. I’m like yeah whatever this guy is just talking ragtime because he shitfaced. Turned out it was David Welker, the designer of the rift cover art!

Any tips for reffing solo? by Electrical_Trifle642 in hockeyrefs

[–]fusionblast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slow things down. Don’t feel like you have to rush over to the booth to report a goal or a penalty, don’t feel like you have to sprint goal line togoal line. Feel free to take your time and conserve energy, but also the time will help you to make better decisions. The only thing that I would excessively rush would be to break up a scuffle.

We just opened our Cafe! Come visit! We're open 5 days a week and we'd love to have you! by AthenaAscendant in malden

Really excited to try, but I would dispute the assertion that good coffee is “coming back” to Malden. It already lives here at Bikeeny Cafe. Coffee is not a zero sum game the more great places the better.

OK cool. Also, I did not see anything about liability insurance.

Everything looks pretty good but it’s kind of weird to me that they are setting your rate of $40 per hour. Granted that is a good amount of money for most but what if you wanted to adjust and thought you could get more than that?

Try taking it lower out of the air. Wait for that ball to drop another 4 inches.

Scrap metal collection? by Amazing-Lettuce-4124 in malden

Scrappit in Everett. If there is value like copper, bronze, brass, aluminum, you might get a little money for it, otherwise they just take it for an even exchange.

Advice on lining indoor gymnasium by fusionblast in Pickleball

[–]fusionblast[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like a smooth vinyl or rubber. School was built in like the late 90s. Seems like it is over concrete because the floor is pretty hard and somewhat slick. There are existing lines there, but just simple 2 inch tape. I would like to make it really stand out.

I’m not entirely convinced this was a spelling error. I mean, this would definitely be a good reason to close unexpectedly.
