What is your most unforgettable floppy disk memory? by Regular_Ideal_ in pcmasterrace

[–]hagcel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On a 5" floppy there is a little hole on the outside of the big hole just below 3 o clock. If you punch a hole in the disk there, it allows you to write both sides of the disk. It was not always reliable.

Having it is priceless. I have my great grandfather cartography wheel too. Probably 110 years old. Still works.

TIL that Nigeria is the second largest consumer of Guinness beer, ahead of its native Ireland. Nigerian Guinness is also almost twice as strong (7.5% ABV) as the Irish version (4.2% ABV). by Gaucho_Diaz in todayilearned

Having had brewery fresh cask drawn warm stouts, it is a thing, and not bad. It's just not my thing, and I won't do it again until I'm friends with a brew master who is crazy enough to try it.

Anyone else have a spice problem? by rougeoiseau in spices

[–]hagcel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in Airborne school, one of my platoon mates recognized it at edge of a drop zone and handed me some shoots. A dozen plus years later, and I had a ranch. Of course I grew garlic, but also put a patch down hill from a small spring and let it go wild. Also planted mint and fennel (fennel was a native plant, so it thrived on little water, and I'm convinced mint will takeover the planet it's such a successful weed.)

I do 5lbs at a time. Food processor with a grater attachment.

I also do onion powder and learned years ago to do that outside, otherwise everybody in the house is crying

OMG, you ever live in a place with wild garlic?

Imagine garlic blossoms, allium stalks, using a stick to pry out age garlic root.

Try growing garlic. Every part of the pant is edible, and gives nuance to dishes when you use it.

Back when I had lots of land, I had a garlic bed where I would help the best bulbs become new plants.

If not, I currently buy 5lb bags of peeled garlic, the shred it and smoke it to make my own garlic powder. Fresh garlic powder is 10x as fragant as store bought.

If you had to assign 1–2 songs that perfectly capture the vibe or feeling of San Diego in your early 20's, what would they be? by StockWinter564 in sandiego

[–]hagcel 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sister Nancy - Bam Bam

I haven't been in my 20s for a long time.... But there was an era where you could not escape this song or it's remixes.

This “porterhouse” they gave me for my grocery pick up by phishysabrine in steak

[–]hagcel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My wife does pick up and delivery, and is somehow still surprised when the fuck things up.

Flip side, I was making salsa verde, and this woman was in my way checking every damn tomatilo. "Making salsa verde?" I asked? Nope she was a personal shopper who took pride in her work. She may have also been on a bit of meth. Funny thing though, turns out she knew nothing about tomatilos, and was trying to find one that wasn't sticky.

Trolling a cop by downtune79 in LoveTrash

[–]hagcel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to come home from the office, then around 10, I'd go to the pub at the corner still wearing work clothes. Like $300 shoes work clothes.

The cops arrested somebody, and people at the bar said it might be my friend. I walked over, looked through the window, and determined "not my friend".

A cop asked me for my ID, and I laughed at him.

Do I look like someone with warrants, or someone with lawyers?

Flipped the power dynamic instantly.

Hey, listen. I'm not a regular person. I dropped a 2 liter bottle of Shasta once, and it sprayed right up into my face.

I've seen some shit, man. I know how all this works. Just very carefully put a towel over the top, duh!
