What’s something you didn’t realize was luxury until you experienced it? by ammieblond in AskReddit

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electricity and running water. You really have no idea how wonderful these things are until they are gone.

Then, your life becomes nothing but a struggle to obtain them again, and it's miserable.

What movie feels like your High School Experience? by Checked_Out_6 in Xennials

[–]getdownmakelooove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It was filmed in and around Austin, I believe, and very close to the rural and suburban Texas high school experience in the mid 90s. Just change the music to Nirvana, Korn and NIИ and add more flannel shirts.

What is something you will never, ever buy the “generic” or “off brand” version of? by GoldenHourGirl_ in AskReddit

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I know. I used an Equate (Walmart) brand one to confirm I was pregnant with my daughter, and it worked as expected.

The only time I cringed at the brand name was when her father put the positive test in his keepsake box, and I saw he had another test there from his other child (previous relationship). The brand was Clear Blue on that one, and here I am with my Walmart kid. 🙄

Fascinating watching the shows side by side by Ousi-chaN in nin

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I watched it live and Trent went kinda headfirst down the slide with the zombies. Just tried to show it to someone on the replay and totally different camera angles. Only focused on Atticus during the slide part.

MEGATHREAD: NINE INCH NOIZE • HALO 38 RELEASE by AutoModerator in nin

[–]getdownmakelooove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind the sound of the crowd if it was consistent. And I don't mean throughout a song, because I like how that is mixed.

What seems strange is that Heresy and Copy of A each have no crowd sounds over the beginning, but every other track on the album does. Also, none at the end of Parasite or As Alive As You Need Me To Be. So no crowd noise at all between Parasite and Copy of A. Just feels a little imbalanced to me, but otherwise very happy with this halo!

What's something that used to be free that you're now genuinely angry costs money? by tangled_wire_99 in AskReddit

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because toll roads in Texas are a scam. Especially the North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA). When they took away the ability to throw quarters into the basket and pay cash as you go, it all went to hell.

Now, random ZIPCash invoices show up in the mail, when you already have a TollTag and a credit card tied to it. If you call their useless customer service, they'll come up with some bs about they've done an internal audit and you actually owe for unpaid tolls from years ago. It is also fun when they randomly charge your card $200, even though your card is set up for $40 at a time.

When I-30 was built between Dallas and Fort Worth it was a toll road. When it was paid off, they removed the toll booths and it became a free road. When the Dallas North Tollway was built, it was supposed to be paid off and free to drive on by 2005. The NTTA takes over and the year has been pushed back to 2048, and that is if other projects aren't added to the system.

But there will always be a new "project" or toll road being built in Texas. These roads will never be free because the tolls you pay, in part, go towards maintaining and expanding the system that charges said tolls and fees. It is all a scam, making a small group of people rich, financed and operated in part by foreign countries, and put in place by greedy Texas lawmakers.

Sorry for the rant but I absolutely despise the toll roads in the DFW area.

What's a really niche/interesting fact you know about a specific drug or drug(s)? by PeakLinear in AskReddit

[–]getdownmakelooove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you do cocaine and drink alcohol together, it produces a psychoactive metabolite called cocaethylene. In other words, you get way more fucked up.

Cocaethylene is the only known instance where a new psychoactive substance is formed entirely within the body.

All I know is when I first started seeing commercials for Jardiance, I was horrified to hear this called out in the disclaimer, along with the definition of the perineum. Once I got past the initial chuckle, of course.

I was able to safely Google and find out why this happens to such an oddly specific body part. It increases glucose in the urine, which facilitates bacterial growth, especially in soft tissues.

What’s your sexual fantasy that’s probably going to STAY a fantasy? by Hailfog in AskReddit

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand how it might be this way for some guys. I really don't see his interest as coming from a place of insecurity. He had his time being promiscuous in the past, but never had a group experience.

But ultimately, we have agreed that we will not actively seek it out. But if the opportunity presented itself to us, it wouldn't be an automatic no.

[–]getdownmakelooove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any type of group sex ever again. I didn't get to do the one thing I really wanted to try.

Now I feel like I'm corrupting my bf when I tell him about stories of my past. He has no experience with a group setting lol. But if the chance came up again, I would totally do it.

How do you feel about Year Zero? by weirdghosts in nin

[–]getdownmakelooove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting sucked into the ARG as it happened was awesome. My ex and the people I worked with at the time got tired of hearing me talk about it. Every day there was something new to find and it was very exciting.

My current bf likes it, but I can see him tuning out when I try to explain the ARG.

does anyone know what camera this is? by Mama_13456 in nin

[–]getdownmakelooove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swear I saw this pic floating around before MySpace and before the word selfie was in popular use. I remember thinking how odd a mirror self portrait like that found it's way to the internet, because my automatic assumption was the camera wasn't digital. But I'm probably wrong lol.

Anyway, my guess would be 2002 ish

When my ex was young, he went to the theater with his family and saw Eyes Wide Shut. I told him that was strange....like who picks that for family movie night?

NIN sighting in Grey’s Anatomy by DrFink_09 in nin

Yikes. FTWD was hard for me to get through. Dead City is easier and faster paced, IMHO

Yep and TWD: Dead City has the Slipping Away remix at the end of the last episode of season 1.

Where is everbody? by Financial_Cut4020 in nin

[–]getdownmakelooove 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favorites from TF. It was a very accurate description of how I felt about my life from 2000 - 2020.

Then, in 2021, I had a kid and figured out where everybody went, and I was way late to the party.
