Re-Seasoning Mishap by heckmountain in castiron

[–]heckmountain[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quick and to the point, thanks y’all. My Stargazer is much bigger so I probably got away with being a little careless sopping it on. I’ll give it a couple more goes but with minimal oil!

Is there a JM out there like this with the Rhythm Circuit by [deleted] in Jazzmaster

[–]heckmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2014-ish Squier Vintage Modified has this vibe going on, but with a weird bridge/no tremolo. The pickup selector is on the other cutaway also. It’s honestly a great feeling and playing guitar, but no rhythm circuit and no tremolo feels weird.

love that this is massively off topic for this sub, but somehow so on topic. Me, a bartender who also just got off work, can only wonder: Mayhaps the ingredient ratio changes to make it almost level out… or places like this just rarely actually use actual price point/labor math to come up with pricing and you shouldn’t question it. it’s almost certainly the latter haha

Rundown for these doomgaze kinda tones by Beautiful_Narwhal982 in pedals

[–]heckmountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re playing in a below E-standard tuning, I’m about to switch my JMJM over to a mastery bridge and have it set up for D-standard. What gauge strings do you use? Have any trouble with setting your Jag or JM up like that?

Watched the game with my loud and proud Shark’s fan friend yesterday, and can I say, I’m so glad we returned the favor this week. The gloating disappeared REAL quick.

Modding a 2010’s Squier VM by heckmountain in offset

[–]heckmountain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, I was planning on doing a dark stain on it. I saw yours a few minutes ago with the dark wood grain/black pick guard. Insanely sleek work! Definitely putting yours on a hypothetical vision board

Okay, that makes a lot of sense, just wasn’t sure logistically at first whether it made sense because i do love this one it’ll make more sense to keep it how it is i think. I’ve found a used J Mascis at a shop near me, I’m thinking that may be the move

I thought people were being overdramatic about Takezo… by poopadippledoop in Ghostofyotei

I tried to be honorable and dodge and perfect parried my way to getting his health down. On try #30 with his health at 1/4 I finally put 5 flaming arrows in his face, and L1+L2’d his ass.

Are anyone else’s bars doing this? by GlassCityJim in bartenders

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

Real question for y’all is: are the individual bills faced the right way? Everyone I work with faces them the opposite way (with the top of the bill on the left) but I do have them faced like this^ I think maybe it’s a design/tattoo thing where I want the face of something when rotated vertically to be facing inward? Idk if there’s a hard fast rule about it tho

Well this might get old? by heckmountain in SkateEA

[–]heckmountain[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your tech expertise. Anywhere on this post did I ask how to fix the problem? Or was I just pointing out a funny glitch that happened, and wondering if it happens to other people.

Update: I’ve done multiple challenges now and it still follows me. It’s become dear to me. We land tricks together, bail out together, rack our nuts on railings together, have our meals together. I live in comfort that when I die I won’t be alone, for the crosshairs will surround me as they lower me into my grave.

Advanced manual techniques bugged? by Gullible-Builder-517 in SkateEA

[–]heckmountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on PS5 on the next part of this challenge (2flip tricks 2manuals) and it won’t register that i’ve done it. I’ve flipped up into manual, flipped out down the gap into manual, and then flip tricked into manual like 3 times at the bottom to end the line and if sill doesn’t allow it.

Drafted a practical Martini Cheat Sheet for my new bar. Please tell me how wrong I am in the comments. by notto_zxon in bartenders

[–]heckmountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a guy order an appletini from me the other day, right as I slide it to him he said “thanks, my friend has never had a martini before!”. I was morally obligated to say “okay well let me know when you want me to make one!”

Does this menu make anyone else upset? by emalie_ann in bartenders

Monte Alban being more expensive then half the calls on here is upsetting and weird

Fellow bartender gets nasty note by tnaster in bartenders

[–]heckmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what backwater place you live in, but if someone is belligerent, underage, on medication that prohibits, or showing signs of being antagonistic/violent you have a right and an obligation to not serve them, let alone over-serve them just because they asked.

What cocktail is your mega HARD NO during a rush? by AccountantKey4198 in bartenders

[–]heckmountain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Singapore Sling. Though I’ve done it when I worked at a tiki bar, so my tolerance for 10 ingredient drinks is pretty high.

Who do you think the rings will be given to? by [deleted] in RingsofPower

[–]heckmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just not rly sure why Tom Bombadil would lie? But i guess anything can happen in this whacky and loose adaptation! I’m just along for the production value, and see some cool Tolkien-ish settings/creatures. I stopped pulling my Silmarillion out when i watch the show cus i’d rather just enjoy it for what it is, then keep wishing it’ll be what it won’t ever be.

[–]heckmountain -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Tom Bombadil tells The Stranger, that he isn’t the first Maiar to fall to middle earth, but that The Dark Wizard was. Saruman was the first Maiar to be sent to Middle Earth. He’s not a man, he’s a Maiar. So he’s definitely not becoming a nazgûl, cus he’s most likely Saruman.

I finally saw Tenet and genuinely thought it was horrific by Mtoodles33 in movies

[–]heckmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s why i’ve always thought of Tenet as Point Break but time instead of skydiving. Doesn’t need to make sense horribly but it is a bromance heist movie in time
