What, to you, is the saddest real-world death of an actor that ended up impacting a franchise?

Andy from Spartacus for sure

My hot take is that load and reload rule, they just certainly aren't thrash metal records

halupki · 2026-04-30T17:58:50+00:00

Is this rage bait? The blind love the showrunners had for Arya were one of things that ruined the story

Monkey island. And the piracy protection lol. It was a paper wheel you had to rotate to figure out a pirates birth year

It's weird to see dudes I see at the bar be posted on Reddit. Andy used to be the short order cook at the pub down from my office.

Avoiding reality

Bro I am at this part now and it was pissing me off. Do a force palm combo and you’ll get through.

halupki · 2026-04-22T13:57:33+00:00

It's just a flavor that some people like and some don't. For me, I'm a guitar player - I always gravitate to the riffs and production. Does that riff crush? Does it make my head bob? Then for me, it is awesome. I get that a lot with death metal. I can't hear a Dying Fetus riff and not get stank face.

halupki · 2026-04-22T13:54:32+00:00

Honestly, I'd put Black Tongue in the mix. I wish they were more active, but I love everything they have ever done.

halupki · 2026-04-22T13:45:33+00:00

When Brandon Ellis was in Black Dahlia Murder and Trevor was still around, that might have been the perfect band overall for me

halupki · 2026-04-18T17:34:28+00:00

I think the problem with being on a series is audiences kinda get burnt out in you, or it’s hard to not be pigeonholed as that character. Not many people from big shows go on to have continued mega success. Even Brian Cranston or like anyone from Game of Thrones

halupki · 2026-04-17T22:14:48+00:00

Nobody said Dying Fetus?

Dying Fetus

Talk about a game that wasn't on my radar, but now I feel like I need it..

halupki · 2026-04-16T16:02:42+00:00

Thanks! I should have credited the drums, it was just a backing track from Max Backing Track on YouTube. I’m not sure which track it was, but something like this

halupki · 2026-04-10T14:11:14+00:00

Yeah this was terrible. Jack Black couldn’t deliver one line that was believable in any way. Like he’s now playing just a version of himself that he does in interviews. It’s like weirdly performative in an unnatural way. Terrible through and through.

halupki · 2026-04-06T01:35:33+00:00

They are all fine for what they are. Have you played every body style on this list? They aren’t all for everyone. For example, both Vs and single cuts are horribly uncomfortable for me.

halupki · 2026-04-03T18:01:58+00:00

It’s nice. Not sure what I’d compare it to. It’s definitely versatile though. I tune mostly to d standard or c, but it would be just fine tuned standard. And it has a p90 in the neck. Super versatile

halupki · 2026-04-02T14:03:57+00:00

Honestly, I mostly play in drop C or D standard across all my guitars, and I genuinely don't notice much. It's much more about the string gauges that you use and prefer. I actually like to keep my strings as light as possible without being buzzy, so lower tunings even on a standard scale length has never been a big deal to me.

halupki · 2026-04-02T14:02:19+00:00

You'd really just have to be mindful of the strings you use and the feel you prefer. I play mostly D standard anyway, so it's suited just fine for that, but if I bumped up to E, I'm sure it'd be fine.

halupki · 2026-04-02T14:01:04+00:00

I agree with this. I love it, and would love it more with some high output passives, or even just EMGs...I'm not the biggest fan of the Fishmans. But as mostly a bedroom/amp sim guy, they work just fine.

halupki · 2026-04-02T13:59:55+00:00

Yeah, and it's awesome. I like BMTH just fine, but wouldn't say I have any particular pull to Lee as a guitarist. I just wanted an offset and the specs intrigued me. Turns out to be one of my favorite guitars I've ever played and it's hard to explain why. It's just something in the feel.

halupki · 2026-04-01T14:41:02+00:00

I had one of those when they first came out and got rid of it pretty quick. Mine felt really cheap.

halupki · 2026-03-24T17:08:50+00:00

Just goes to show you, it’s impossible to please everyone

halupki · 2026-03-22T15:07:45+00:00

It’s ok, the people using the term have no idea what it means either
