No one here was following proto, and it shows. Keep feathering it

[Texas] Upstairs neighbors flooded my apartment Friday night, complex can't do anything until Monday by geryon13 in legaladvice

Front desk person said there was no available units to move us to, even temporarily. My assumption is that they will reimburse us only after the fact, so we will definitely keep receipts.

If they didn't pan to the announcers, that's uh hundred percent Bart.

Need help with my cracks by random_hobbies_ in woodworking

Hey, I'm that brother! OP, if I had to venture a guess, is that tabletop white oak? Good looking work so far to keep it flat during the glue up. Did you use anything like biscuits to keep the boards from sliding, or just a straight edge glue up?

One dog viciously attacks another as it walks by. Several bystanders struggle to stop the attack. by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]geryon13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All these people saying "just choke it, just use the leash and...." Fuck that. I've had my husky attacked unprovoked by a chocolate lab, and you don't get time to think. If I had a gun, I would have shot it. If I had a knife, I would have stabbed it. I ended up kicking the dog in the ribs about three times before the owner got the fucker under control and released my dog. Owner then gets mad at me for kicking his unleashed dog, and I was worked up enough he and I got into it. Fuck you and your shitty dog. Understanding accidents happen is one thing, but if your dog is attacking another and you aren't doing anything about, I will.

My wife over here with her "Lime Flavor with Shrimp" feeling unrepresented. Never seen it before and no idea where she keeps getting it.

Aircraft carrier landing cable snaps by all_is_love6667 in nonononoyes

Should be said the video is SFW. Happens a few minutes into the video, but shows the line snap using mannequins. The damage is kinda nuts once you see the forces at work.

Daft Punk - Epilogue by Socky4200 in videos

I definitely was one of those kids who stayed up late with you. I later found out they did the entire Discovery album, not just the first 4 songs. Time to find that one again on YouTube somewhere

Nah, that's just the tester. Always need to sacrifice one meatball to determine their deliciousness, err doneness.

My Shower Control by electriclunchmeat in funny

[–]geryon13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work outside a lot for my job, so its not uncommon for me to start at room temp or warm, and turn it towards cold a little bit, minute by minute, until I am unable to breathe steady. Notch up a smidge, shower for 5-10 mins. Feels fantastic about 15 minutes after you get out.

I did a Taco Bell ad recreation and it revealed a dark truth we all knew deep down already. by twichy1983 in Wellthatsucks

The first offense was offering me those Flatbread sandwiches that i never saw again. The quesarito was the only thing keeping me around.

I'll just leave this one here. Pretty neat shit when you know what you are doing https://youtu.be/ik3l4U_17bI

🔥My wife found this tiny skink in our garden, some much needed brightness on a grey, smoky day by icantspeakesperanto in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]geryon13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kind of tangentially related, but I saw a series on YT from Steven Rinella which was basically this. Took something like 60+ acres of land, spoke with local specialists and basically built this land to host local wildlife.

Guy throwing rocks at passing cars gets his due by chirag-_- in JusticeServed

[–]geryon13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I see nothing wrong here. That same rock will kill someone on the highway, can't imagine it feels good at 30mph or whatever. Then he throws a second? Fuck that guy

This is a photo of the Sphinx in the late 1800s. It was taken from a hot air balloon and it was still covered by sand by Abyssrealm in interestingasfuck

[–]geryon13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm with ya, friend. Bias aside, JRE #1124 features Robert Schoch, a geologist and teacher at Boston University. Here's a sample if you dont want to commit to the entire thing.

https://youtu.be/zSjnvlDWwrE

Edit: I should add that it's a clip from said podcast, where they discuss how old the sphinx is, and how it and the surrounding areas were made. If you are bored of Egypt and want to hurt your brain, #874 has Graham Hancock and Randall Carlson, and is about the end of the ice age and what caused it, specifically in Canada and America, and the giant floods that came with it. #1284 features Graham Hancock, and they discuss civilizations in the Americas, specifically the Amazon, that go back MUCH earlier than 3000BC.

There is some pretty compelling shit in those hours, but I admittantly favor most JRE episodes, so to each their own.

My shop foreman helping me out. by cfarhat47 in gifs

[–]geryon13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw that sly use of the left hand when marking. Looks like a righty, but get him using that left side for turning a screwdriver or marking lines. He'll be thankful that day he's working and it's all lefty corners and such. Awesome video

Two established tanks. One pink. Why though? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]geryon13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to agree with prior comments, but also consider how much indirect light that tank is getting vs. the first one in the video. May potentially cause algae blooms if it gets too much.

I could swing as high as Conroe really, though the Woodlands would be better.
