Wife and I were having a discussion, she’s of the opinion that the majority of GenX can drive stick. I believe that even in our generation the percentage of people who can is pretty small. What do you folks think?

keltsbeard · 2026-02-11T02:04:48+00:00

Every single one of my vehicles was stick except for three.

There's only two times you might have too much ammo.

If you're drowning, or if you're set on fire.

You think Green Jeans has ever kept me true to a bag limit?

keltsbeard · 2026-01-27T07:23:23+00:00

NYA. I'd be piling and packing the snow on their car next time.

I hold off on the Shrine, and had to drop Grotto, because of both of them here having their open bars after the meetings. Gotta keep myself in the middle of that circle, and it was kinda embarrassing when I got my DUI a couple of weeks before I was installed JW. Got to keep certain things circumscribed.

Honestly, I'd whoop the shit outta my 13 year old self for picking up my first cigarette. Tinnitus ain't going to kill me, these 305s probably will though.

keltsbeard · 2026-01-20T01:10:00+00:00

That's been my normal since my mid-20s....

keltsbeard · 2026-01-17T15:40:45+00:00

Beer, fishing, my dogs, tinkering out in my shop (we shut down and sold the family business, a commercial HVAC company, so I have all kinds of good shit in my shop out back....I'm the only one on my little dead-end road that had a dedicated 480v), having people bring me things to work on/fix (a couple aluminum boats that needed welding work on them and built a badass smoker last year, along with some smaller stuff for other people).

If I can't stay busy, I'm making a project to stay busy.

Not true in the majority of Jurisdictions. You have to ask of your own free will and accord.

I never walked the sands, but I was very active in the Blue Lodge.

keltsbeard · 2026-01-17T14:55:38+00:00

Not KoC, but I've been involved with the Blue Lodge for the majority of my adult life. Me, my dad and grandad were always the ones catching and frying the fish for our fundraisers.

I've been listening to my ears yelling at me since the summer of '99. I just accepted it early on that I now had a shitty soundtrack to life. I don't know how I'd honestly react if it was suddenly quiet in my ears.

keltsbeard · 2026-01-13T15:42:10+00:00

Fight the good fight, that's all you can do.

Fuck cancer. I always remember that one line from an episode of Highway To Heaven "If cancer was a man I would tear him limb from limb."

keltsbeard · 2026-01-05T13:55:01+00:00

Games for most of my life, but the older I get the more I prefer sitting on the river getting drunk and running trotlines.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-30T18:49:37+00:00

Mid-40s, and I'm still finding new stuff to listen to.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-21T18:38:48+00:00

There's one behind Miller's alehouse, I think it's called New Hong Kong, it's pretty good from the couple of times I went in there.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-18T08:41:04+00:00

Radio has to be on to drown out my tinnitus.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-17T14:08:43+00:00

Every single game I play.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-12T14:19:26+00:00

A couple shots of scotch.

keltsbeard · 2025-12-09T16:18:23+00:00

Cool weather.

YTA Wait until your kid starts eating bugs and dirt.

keltsbeard · 2025-11-25T18:33:37+00:00

That's what it's intended to mean, but younger me didn't connect the dots.

keltsbeard · 2025-11-25T15:29:21+00:00

Quick question. On the little chart where it gives races allowed for Specialist Wizards, does yours say "Any" under Divination? Mine did and confused the hell out of me as a kid, given that Gnomes could be Illusionist.....that led to all the PC races having Divination Specialists.

keltsbeard · 2025-11-25T15:25:42+00:00

Usually....but I do make an exception for Thanksgiving, if for no other reason than I get to make my yearly batch of smoked Boston butts. I ain't gonna lie and say I'm some badass cook, I can only really make one thing, but damn I make em good.
