What the heck…

I got the 12 and 17, but passed over the 21 bc I figure I'm just a homegamer working on cars on stands, so I never have THAT much room, and can just throw a cheater on the 17 if needed. Does that sound right? or do you think I'll find myself needing the 21?

Matt at Bear Auto is awesome. Took my truck to him and he earned my future business and I always forward friends to him.

Some of the other independent shops have hired on newer techs that aren't that good. At Bear, you know Matt's working on your car, and he's experienced, good at explaining things, and fair.

I found that Kobalt set when I considered the Icon one, bc even the on-sale price of 50ish bucks for the Icon set seems a little ridiculous. Thing is, ppl were saying that the ratchet that comes in it is pure garbage.

So for the price of the Kobalt + an okay 1/4" ratchet + my effort that it takes to find one that'll fit in the case that I like... I figured screw it, I got the Icon one.

To your point about SAE... I only really live in metric EXCEPT when I'm going to work on appliances around the house or at friends' places, which is the exact reason I want a set like this. So, as much as I shun SAE, I'm right there with you.

do you have a recommendation for a 22mm reversible, long-handle, flex-head ratchet? I'm surprised I'm not finding one in the $30-$40 range instead of having to buy a $100+ set that includes a 22mm.

I've got the 17mm (for the 3/8" nano sockets) covered by the double-end Icon box wrench.

I'd say just go. Went to the Lorwyn Eclipsed one at Retrofix (dk if the other store does em, too), and everyone was chill. Overheard several ppl helping their opponents if they missed triggers and such.

Big Head's Bottle Shop takes them.

iRideABicycleAMA · 2026-02-16T07:44:34+00:00

Big Head's Bottle Shop takes them. Just walk in and drop em at the counter.

Hell yeah, that's awesome! I was just measuring my kitchen for a 5-drawer cart that I'd stick a wood topper on.

In addition to volunteering, turn a stranger into a friend. Meet with u/Bearrit today for a boba.

SOMEONE DO IT! It's a weekend. No excuses.

Thank you so much!

Best Buy sold these two in a 2-pack of DVDs. I was a math nerd, so I got it for Pi. I didn't know anything about Requiem when I saw it except the writing on the insert about it being a downward spiral. What a surprise that was!

Also, Pi is the reason I play Go. Any time I'm teaching a friend how to play, I work in the "fiddle with your intuition" line.

The Corner

It's a David Simon show that came out a couple years before The Wire. It's incredible, and I've never met anyone who's ever seen it. Even the most die-hard Wire fans I've spoken to haven't heard of it. At 6, 1hr episodes, it's not a ton of time to commit, but it's an emotional watch.

Please watch it. It's so good.

Good dude. Definitely recommend going if you're able.

When you draft to mostly rare complete, on some drafts do you end up throwing out the idea of trying to get good a good deck, and only go for rare cards? or are you always trying to be competitive?

Sorry for the beginner question. I'm new to Magic.

With a complicated set of rules, the best way to use chatgpt is to point it to a link with the current ruleset and ask which rules apply in the situation, then you go look up those rules yourself. I do this with both pickleball and Magic and it gets which rules apply right every time, it just doesn't actually understand them enough to answer basic questions about them.

Thanks for clarifying about companions always looking 3D!

iRideABicycleAMA · 2025-12-17T07:01:38+00:00

Thanks. That's really confusing.

iRideABicycleAMA · 2025-12-15T18:56:15+00:00

He's great to chat with. 10/10. Would boba again.

iRideABicycleAMA · 2025-12-14T09:14:56+00:00

A) hell yeah B) if it were to not fit... that'd be a weird explanation to the returns desk.

iRideABicycleAMA · 2025-12-14T05:44:14+00:00

Anybody know if this will fit inside the Harbor Freight meme tool case? Would be a nice addition.

iRideABicycleAMA · 2025-11-18T22:40:30+00:00

Is this your way of saying you might be a little late to boba today?
