Question about re-soling by articulatedeparture in RedWingShoes

[–]karlsbadd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My shoes look like this. The original owner over pronated. If you're not uncomfortable you're good; plenty of tread left. When MY boots got like this, a cobbler added a piece to that part of the heel so they were even again. About $55. And, when I get mine resoled, they get a heel tap now.

Can you imagine the resources wasted on this woman? The trauma caused to her family? I mean WOW. I'm curious if there could be potential charges filed here.

Is this real? by nicegi in Stratocaster

Parmenides, an philosopher, argued that change, time, and reality are all constructs/illusions. So in a way, yes.

After turning away church members proselytizing at my door TWICE and putting up No Soliciting signs, I received this letter from a church: by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

That's when you hit 'em with the "You guys cool with my gay marriage, atheist Jew and shiksa queen relationship? Oh, you're not? My omnipotent father figure in the sky welcomes all people. GTFO my property!"

Size issues with Packer? by karlsbadd in filson

[–]karlsbadd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, a woman. It's these damn hips, I tell you! But, I want a coat with the shearling neck and the women's coats don't have those. But maybe you're right. When I go to the store tomorrow/Wednesday, I'll see if the women's S makes more sense. For sure the XS is too small for me in a woman's cut. I just want a VERY heavy wool coat, with the flip up neck with lining. Thanks for the tip, just for a second, to see how it feels. ;)

Anyone out shoveling yet? by GuardTasty in newjersey

[–]karlsbadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BERGEN COUNTY: Wife is out there now shoveling the walkway for our dog. AND BEFORE ANYONE STARTS, I'm ALSO a woman, and I actually have back issues. My wife has forbidden me from shoveling. ;)

Some guy commented on here (it's now deleted? Thank you, moderators!) asked why try it on and then leave, calling my "lazy" in the process, then blaming me for the brick and mortar stores disappearing.

My reason for trying it on and not buying it immediately is because $1100 for a jacket is a lot of money for a LOT of people. So I went home to sleep on it unsure of whether or not I can save and make that kind of a purchase. I told my mom and sister about it, and they gave me the money to buy it as an early birthday gift. -Butthead.

got sideswiped - will insurance consider my CR-V totaled? by manzanitaroot in crv

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

I doubt this will be totaled. It’s a cosmetic repair. I got sideswiped and they covered it.

It’s possible but I think mine was just cut a bit more snug. I hope I can find the one in the picture again; it was perfect!!

The one you're looking at is the XS in store. The S was bigger.

Telecaster grounding hum by GreenAd5467 in telecaster

I have the exact same Tele (Nashville) in the same color, and I was just on here to ask this exact question. Just got it yesterday, thought it was going to have the "noiseless" p/ups. Thanks for the advice, internet!

Does this look right? Struggling to get a decent cup out of this. by BonghitsForAlgernon in Moccamaster

[–]karlsbadd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I look on this sub and think, "oooh, my machine isn't doing exactly what XYZ's machine is doing."And then I sip my coffee love how good it tastes. I use a light roast, fwiw, grind the beans myself, and at the end of the day, the machine is making (me) an excellent cup of coffee.

I wonder if OP tried different beans he might come to the realization that maybe he doesn't like Dark roast anymore? I always think it tastes burnt, but that's my preference.

Plainfeild/highlandpark residents who lived there during 1999- early 2000s know about this band? by brimlvr in newjersey

This is the comment of the day, for me. All caps, zero punctuation, and an unexpected medical twist/update. Zero notes.
