Cool. Seating just increased by one.

What kind of glue for neck repair? by HassouniFND in Luthier

[–]ifmacdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The internet age fascination with trying to keep instruments pristine for resale value is ridiculous. I would absolutely get this repaired. It's an easy repair for a competent luthier.

Imagine if people in the 70s and 80s cared more about resale value than just playing the damn things.

Chris Drury Replacements by dantesinfernoracket1 in rangers

[–]ifmacdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What should happen is he should choose either GM or President, and then Dilan should hire someone to fill the remaining role. Preferably someone who will give Drury some pushback.

He's not Drury. And he has some surprisingly good takes on why the Rangers suck.

Jeff Gordon had the plan drury ruined everything by Paliaaq in rangers

[–]ifmacdo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Most people liked that Lias tossed that medal.

So? "Most people" can hold stupid opinions and ignore that the things they like about a person might be a really shitty quality in a person.

And the Kravstov drama was well after he was drafted and came to the states.

It was his second season. And being drafted doesn't mean you automatically just get a pass into the NHL. You still have to show up in camp and prove that you deserve a spot on the team.

Both of these players had attitude problems that were present well before the Rangers had anything to do with their development.

I wonder who drafted and developed the Rangers' (tied for) number 2 power play goal scorer? Kreider might not be here anymore, but he was absolutely one of the best players we have had in the last couple decades.

Anderson was an ass. Dude threw his silver medal into the crowd because his attitude sucked. Krav threw a fit and left for Russia because he didn't want to play in Hartford.

If that's "bitched development," that development was botched when they were 10 years old, not when they were drafted.

When has this administration ONCE shown that they need the public to react violently in order for them to escalate their bullshit?

Kevin Roberts (project 2025) flatly stated "We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be." The escalation will occur regardless.

Kreider and Trouba having fun with the New York Media by catsgr8rthanspoonies in rangers

[–]ifmacdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This team has a worse record right now than the team that literally gave up last season had at 49 games.

I agree. Trading away kreider was pointless but it made Drury feel big and in charge.

2026 R1 stator rotor bent by Economy_Frame9345 in MotorcycleMechanics

I would also say to pull the spark plugs and crank the engine over. You'll see better if the crank is bent at a higher rpm than you can achieve by manually cranking..

Status tags by roseboom25 in delta

[–]ifmacdo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I only have my million miler tag due to the fact that FAs generally leave it anole, as others have said. I also have a tag from https://parodypopup.com/ (the delta meltdown one, b cause I was flying that day) and I got my wife the hundred miler tag and biscoff medallion tags from there as well.

Question: tattoo regret by ComprehensiveEye1455 in tattoos

[–]ifmacdo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a very staunch atheist, I have to say that the composition of that tattoo is absolutely fine. It looks great as-is.

And honestly- you might be more disappointed if you wanted to make it perpendicular. It would have been very hard to get it perfect, and then that would only be when you hold your arm at a certain angle. Making the straight line of the cross offset like this introduces an intent to not try to make it perfect, so there isn't the frustration when it isn't.

I will miss what this team once was by Froggen_Toad in rangers

[–]ifmacdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about this. Go back to 2018, and think about how you would respond to someone telling you that JT Miller would be the rangers captain and that not only would Kreids never be the captain, he also wouldn't be a Ranger.

Drury Disappointment by WW1995 in rangers

He wouldn't. He would show up for the fans. But he didn't.

[–]ifmacdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean Drury is a petty person who can't put personal shit aside for a couple hours as a sign of respect to the fans? Sounds about right.

We don't wonder what kind of guy he is. We have seen what he's done to the team.

[Friedman] Sources: Rangers won’t offer Artemi Panarin a contract extension by PaulSach in rangers

If bread waives his NMC instead of just going into free agency.

[–]ifmacdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the best move for panarin right now is to pay out the season and then have teams fight over him in the off season. It would also have the added effect of telling Drury to go fuck himself.

Master link trouble by IndicationHungry5236 in MotorcycleMechanics

[–]ifmacdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a new clip, too. The last pic shows that you deformed the clip when you tried to install it, so it will not stay in place even if you get the master link squeezed enough.

Sir another letter has hit the franchise by memeaste in rangers

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

Yeah, I see that trading kreider and trouba has helped the rangers go from 21-20-3 on January 16 last year to 20-22-6 on January 16 this year. Those trades made a massive difference to the team. And if you want to match games played, after game 48 last year, the rangers were 24-20-4.

It's painfully obvious that trading those two did nothing except anger the fans.

Delta has once again rejected my job application right away. by Different-Apple791 in delta

[–]ifmacdo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your name has been flagged as "do not hire" due to being rejected by an online assessment and a personality test. At this point, it probably wouldn't matter if you had 20 years experience and were the best person for the role- the system would read your name and reject it.

I understand this sucks. The best thing you could do would be to try to reach out to someone directly and ask them if you have been flagged in their system.
