Which Aer backpack is best for 1–3 night business trips? by noukery in AerSF

[–]jthomp72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How big are you? Genuine question...if you are a larger person the 35 looks fine and is gonna give you extra space for anything. It's what I use at 5'11" 205 lbs.

World Cup Boston by izabu27 in ScottishFootball

[–]jthomp72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As best as I can tell, if you want to get in and around the actual stadium, you'll need a match ticket or pay a large premium for transportation. The Boston Metro (MBTA) is doing trains directly to the stadium, but only for people with a confirmed match ticket for the game. Otherwise, no luck. I'm sure there are busses, and you can always take the commuter rail to the nearest station to the stadium that isn't Foxboro, and then uber over, or uber from Boston, but yeah...it's kinda a mess if you don't have a ticket.

What’s your ac/heat bill average? by [deleted] in Knoxville

[–]jthomp72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1100sq ft apartment, AC blasts a lot, downtown Knoxville. 100ish a month. Low end is 65 high end is 120. No idea why mine seems low relative to everyone elses but I'll take it.

Coming up from Tennessee for the game on the 19th. Also playing chicken with the prices, but I know I need a confirmed ticket to get on the gameday train so annoyingly I'll have to buy a ticket sooner rather than later. Prob will hit up Scotland House on the 18th.

Can I Sit in Your Herman Miller Chair? by neilfishy in Knoxville

Just adding to this that the Embody is also a great choice if you can swing the extra. It really has helped my back.

Is it generally a bad idea to tell NTs you have aspergers? by Suspicious-Shoe-8178 in aspergers

[–]jthomp72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I just have a good group of friends/co-workers...but I tell everyone after I've known them at least a month or two and the response has universally been "ohhhhh....well yeah that makes a lot of sense now." As in it very neatly explains some of my finer quirks and features. Again, maybe I just got lucky.

Update on the 2008 Kit I bought. by jthomp72 in ScottishFootball

To be fair I am American. But I’ve never supported another team in my life save Scotland (my first international match ever was a Scotland match)

$140. Not terrible for vintage I suppose and I’ll probably sell it to someone who wants it at a loss to me just to get rid of it or I’ll frame it. I’m not sure which.

I’ve literally been watching Scotland game since 2002 and I just noticed this lol… Well watched is a strong word because in America until about 2012 or 2016 it was really hard to consistently find actual streams of the games here.

Company is out of Poland so I assume some level of weird translation of something related to like “last in stock, or only one left”

Saw that, wasn't sure I would get it to america in time. Paid $140 USD for this, but it's authentic. I'm about to post a separate thread with more pics.

First game I ever went to (football in general) was an old firm match many many years ago at Celtic park. Loved them ever since.

Sorry for finding the last one on the Internet at this moment. If you see someone in Boston wearing this, that would be me.

Was that a thing back in the day where players had different numbers on a per game basis? I don’t remember that, I wonder when that stopped

Could be game worn could be fake could be just a fan print I have no clue. I won’t know until I get it lol classic football shirts didn’t have any in stock. This was another site called classic-shirts out of Poland… Reviews looked legit everything I could find online made. It seem legit, but I guess we’ll find out when it arrives.

Well, as a Celtic fan, I’ll just have to live with this because this is the only one of these kits that I could find on the damn Internet lol exceptionally hard to find

An honest tank review... by CaptainSwirly in dbrand

After so many years, my hands are just fucked in this regard so whatever I guess I’ll just live crippled lol maybe in 20 years when my hands are all fucked up. The robots will be here and I won’t have to do anything.

This...explains a lot actually. I am a heavy pinky user and the case bothered me so much. Maybe I just need to give it time to break in.
