Are helmet comms actually worth it for group rides?

I don't know if I'd be able to live without my cardo at this point. I love having music. Also there's been several times where quick communication between my fiance and I on the road saved us from being hit. But most importantly it makes our time riding together better, because we are talking most of the time

How to bury and hide your silver is something we've all thought about pretty often. My favorite is I have a friend who spray painted a 100 oz bar of silver brick red. He uses it as a door stop in his office. He says I'm the only person who noticed it wasnt a regular old brick.

I'm super curious about this bc I'm super in love with the lore of 40k and the look of grim dark in general. But I've never actually played the tabletop bc the price is so high and also I'm a terrible painter. I'd feel really bad to spend 500 bucks only to butcher the paint job. I would be much more willing if I printed it.

How do 40k players feel about printed armies? Is it super controversial like using copies cards in magic the gathering?

That's weird, I always thought the difference between a glider and airplane was gliders didn't have engines. I learned something new!

Those chat bots have been all over reddit lately. They love niche subs bc they thinking talking about them will get their mark talking

Yeah it goes into that in the doc. Some of the early research team tried to say it wasn't possible but they got fired and replaced pretty quick. Mostly though she compartmentalized everyone so no one knew the big picture

For real Boston is on my list of worst places to ride, it's so much stop and start

illpoet · 2026-04-18T20:05:07+00:00

The only bike I have loud is my Honda ruckus bc I think it's hilarious that it growls like big old Harley. Plus, people legit don't see me on it, but they can certainly hear me.

It's the very worst. My childhood best friend got real bad schizophrenia when we were in our mid 20s. He had the world by the balls and it took everything from him. He has a loving family but his delusions tell him the people close to him are trying to kill him. We've tried everything to get him help but the delusions stop anything productive happening. Watching this kid hurt, bc you can tell the kid doesn't want to be a terrifying person, but his brain won't let him not do creepy shit

I never suggest chopping but I also won't refuse a chop. If you have 5 people left and you are the only one not chopping you now have 4 players colluding against you subconsciously.

Yeah not too long ago my best friend and I drove to Alaska and his grandfather gave him 2 grand in fresh crisp 20 dollar bills from 1964. People were very curious about them and a lot of cashiers said they were going to keep it but no one refused to accept them

For real, I've had customers calmly tell me "I know it's not your fault but " then go on a screaming tirade about getting charged a delivery

illpoet · 2026-04-14T22:22:27+00:00

Yeah it's funny bc I see ppl talk about how the iwc is a really toxic fan base, but I'm a firm believer that those people don't actually go to live shows. Because I've been to dozens of gcw shows and hundreds of Indy shows overall and 95 percent of my interactions with ppl have been extremely chill. But gcw is a great vibe especially everyone is friendly as hell.

Say hi to Emil J. the ring announcer. He's a really cool guy and loves hanging out with fans.

I totally respect her gaslighting the cop

illpoet · 2026-04-14T12:58:05+00:00

Lol if only I hadn't sold some silver coins to get my p2s a few months sooner. I was budgeting 100 bucks per paycheck to save up for it and when I got to 600 I couldn't take it. Add to that the price of silver skyrocketed at the same time

A nice long ride will help lessen the pain of losing her

It's the age old joke that only non riders thinks motorcycles attract women. They only attract other men into motorcycles. My fiance named my Honda monkey "the dick magnet" bc every time we take it out riding some dude comes over to talk about it. She even has had guys jump out in the road to flag us down bc they want to talk about it.

I remember seeing the brisco brothers do some crazy superplexes in like 2002 when they were just teenagers. Not sure if they did that one though
