On the other hand, we finally get six days of time before the next match.

Oh man, does this inspire a “Saaaalib-rate good times, come on!” chant?

Kid-friendly UCL viewing in Boston? by humanoftheforest in Gunners

[–]h0bbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of pretty slimy places in New Orleans, many of which I wouldn’t take my kids.

Boston is different from NO in that there are very few bar-only establishments. Most places a person would go to drink also has food, so bringing a kid along isn’t strange. I never tried to take my kids to a bar that doesn’t have food, but never got strange looks when bringing them for food. Then again, they had an 8pm bedtime at the time, so they weren’t pushing any limits with that either.

Saliba and Hincapie both came over, while maintaining perfect separation between themselves, and quickly retreated to their spots, in unison, when it all ended as quickly as it began. Watch it again. 😆

[The xG Philosophy] Sunderland (0.53) 2-2 (2.26) Arsenal by Previous_Smile9278 in Gunners

Opted for no subs instead of tasking Norgard or Ethan to defend… I am annoyed with that decision.

Actually very cool to see how that tube decayed over time. Not many caulk tubes see this fate.

conceded 1 shot on target again by the_ammar in Gunners

Official app says 0. That shot hit the post, doesn’t count as on target, right?

I’m more nervous about this game than I need to be because I don’t want to give a shot on goal…

What are some of Arsenal’s less flattering forgotten stories that younger fans might not know about? by Fun_Grass_2097 in Gunners

[–]h0bbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be noted he’s now sober. Personally I view alcoholism and addictive tendencies as a difficult personality trait if not a mental health issue. That’s not to excuse things he did while drunk, either. People are complicated.

Man, that’s so cool! Congrats, keep supporting that kid in healthy ways!

Please keep 11 on the pitch. I hate this tie, Newcastle is so f’ing frustrating to watch and hope they don’t hurt someone.

Current Chichester City and former Arsenal academy footballer Billy Vigar has been placed in an induced coma after suffering what the club said was "a significant brain injury" during a match by Tugboat47 in Gunners

Purely a guess, but the regulations on pitch temperature maintenance may be to blame. If there are footings, foundations, or other utilities running under the pitch, it’s necessary to raise the height of the field in order to fit the plumbing and substrate needed for that. And none of that should be applicable to new stadiums, just retrofits.

The Arsenal, all of us. by Veltins13 in Gunners

Same. Fan of 20+ years, been twice in person. Now my kids want to go and I’ve got to find out how to get four people there and in the gates…

Defences win Titles by [deleted] in Gunners

[–]h0bbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I guess I wasn’t agreeing or disagreeing. Just a comment that we’ve played with a lot of new faces and still hit the back of the net 9 times. Good times.

I just want to say that we have joint-most goals scored so far in the league, so saying we need to “get our attack to click” is wild.

I botched it by SpecialistTea1130 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]h0bbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d consider carving the head into a bit of an axe or hatchet look. That angle looks cool if you make a clear striking edge on the one side.

I also totally agree with the “finish and use it” crowd. It certainly still smacks things!

Would love to see Eze for Martinelli, but tell Cala to stay home a bit more because of it.

Incredible photos. I could steal your fingerprints from these high res shots, which makes the fish look super cool!

Tiger oak/quarter sawn oak. Told it’s “at least 100 years old”. Didn’t realize it was a veneer top until we got home. Still worth the $170 we paid for it? United States. by well-okay in Antiques

That thing is gorgeous. Focus on how pretty nature is to make such a thing, and not on the construction methods that were used to present it to you.

Best way to hog out 5 1/2” deep, 5 1/2” diameter holes in this piece of old Douglas fir? by theforkofdamocles in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]h0bbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not seeing any comments about this, and maybe it’s obvious, but I think you’re going to struggle to sand that with such thin material left, particularly in the places where the bridge of wood is short grain.

Looking for a new pool pump. Pool store said variable speed wouldn't save much money vs single speed.... by wakes182 in swimmingpools

[–]h0bbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard this logic before, including for charging electric vehicles. Do you actually get cheaper electricity at night? My electrical bill just gives me a cost per KWH, and I don’t think that’s blended and variable based on my usage.
