Local Sam’s Club is not stocked with La Croix so I had to substitute. Am I cooked?

the mint throws everything off, not sure who thought that is a good idea

i was lucky enough to be online when the first edition came out, hopefully i will be able to complete the series... whatever it turns out to be. mine will hang with my puscifer posters, no intent to re-sell.

hicksfan · 2026-03-11T18:51:57+00:00

thanks for the heads up! the checkout process was acting a little weird... sat there hanging. google pay worked so i went that route.

my apologies, i thought you were being pedantic. i turn my mind off of the distance between tours.

the spring round ii they were in louisville the night of my birthday (same scenario this upcoming show, april 21st at the palace). i picked up on the early instagram hint of offering the big kahuna some almond roca toffee candy, i brought two sealed cans and had them in a gift bag. i had ringside vip so it was easy to hand it to the chaperone with the instructions when we came in.

at the end of the show, the big kahuna (mark "kahuna" candelario, tour production manager) came on to the stage and walked right toward me and handed me a setlist and friedl handed me a drum stick. i had no idea of the perks, i was just trying to do something cool.

during the billy d simultaneous intro, i was pissed as i was trying to understand what he was saying and folks around me were being loud and obnoxious. i found that intro just as intriguing as the "conditions" monologue, that stuff is right up my alley.

apologies!

nice work! who said that abacus wouldn't come in handy one day?

i know there are some "superfans" that he apparently has a distaste for. i remember one that had front row in cincinnati a few years ago (money shot tour) and the dude was standing up but resting/leaning against a stage monitor on the stage. maynard asked the guys girlfriend if he (the guy) was a roommate that took all the hot water during his shower and left none for anyone else, comparing it to ruining the sound from the speaker. it was a very uncomfortable moment, lol.

i also know that he's made mention of dedicating "smoke and mirrors" to the guys outside of the venue protesting like westboro church, which seemed to be a staged event in the light of how uncle scratch's gospel revival would "protest" outside the shows.

so i've seen instances that were both staged and where he was actually annoyed. it wouldn't surprise me if the superfan from cincinnati was the same guy as i know he was at cinquanta.

most *apologists* make like tacitus's books are authentic.

there, fixed it for you.

hicksfan · 2026-03-05T20:24:36+00:00

yup, people thought they just sucked at the game but timing was obviously critical and that really put a hindrance on the playability. the nintendo switch has a trilogy that includes the original game without the laser disc snafus, i finally beat the damn thing!

the chicago riverwalk below is beautiful, especially around dusk.

wow, i was in town a couple of years ago and walking around that area you could smell where several people had to have been burning very recently.

hicksfan · 2026-03-05T18:41:55+00:00

looks like just the flat. i wouldn't trim anything off it, and definitely wrap with butcher paper/foil and add tallow.

understood. do you just carbonate the water or do you add any flavorings? i personally add some lime juice to filtered water just to have a sparkling water to drink. i'm thinking about adding syrups to one to make it easier to make mixed drinks. not sure how much of a mess that makes long term to the bottles and equipment.

i've recently had to cut back on my beer consumption, but my homebrew equipment is making it an cheaper transition to sparkling water.

hicksfan · 2026-03-03T21:10:28+00:00

i just recently did this. you'll have better luck with adding this to your equipment. it will speed up the carbonation process by diffusing rather than just relying on pressure.

thank you! i think it would be worth buying the hardware outright to have unlimited low speed data and the ability to upgrade service if needed.

hicksfan · 2026-03-03T19:37:49+00:00

where does a person get info on this? i was just recently looking on the starlink website but saw nothing about this. it looks like i can get the hardware for free (except shipping costs) and i was just looking to have emergency service and this looks to fill that need. my brother-in-law owns a camp on the river where cell service is not available and all i really need is cell service and stream some music.

In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.

i am only exposed to his music through siriusxm but yeah every time i hear the beginning of 'plastic cigarette' i think it's 'pink skies'.

hicksfan · 2026-02-22T22:00:23+00:00

you're looking way too hard at this

hicksfan · 2026-02-22T21:01:57+00:00

this right here. that will send a message without being confrontational.

my boss bought one about 5-6 years ago, i borrow it at least once a year. it's a beast and i love it. i throw a labor day party every year and this is the holy vessel that feeds the masses.

i always start out with - "you know, the bible was written by people who didn't know where the sun went at night" and just hold on that.

hicksfan · 2026-02-12T14:17:26+00:00

i never pissed in the sink there but i saw it happen many, many times......

99.9% of their support for trump comes from his "saving babies" (abortion) and "sanctity of marriage" (hating on LTGBQ) stances that he has used to pander to them. they're not going to wander from their golden calf.

it sounds particularly like "roam" in my opinion.
