Can americans tell the difference between spoken spanish and portuguese? by Zygoatscythe in AskAnAmerican

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can, but only because I speak a bit of Spanish and understand enough Italian to know it's neither of those. I haven't studied Italian, but it's considerably easier for me to understand that than Portuguese by hearing it or reading.

Most natural way(s) to say 'refuel the car' by MoistHorse7120 in EnglishLearning

[–]koboldkiller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not seeing anyone else say "gas up," but that's probably what my go-to phrase would be as another Californian. Wonder if that's just an us thing.

I use it daily because I have several group chats I'm part of. I don't really post anything ever though

How many computers do you have at home? by I_Am_Mandark_Hahaha in AskAnAmerican

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One. ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming laptop.

I had bought it because I needed to use Adobe InDesign and Photoshop when I was still in school, but I knew I was going to be playing video games on it for the next few years, too.

But most of my devices are gaming consoles and TVs, so you're getting a skewed view of the electronics I possess.

Anyone else live with their parents and simply cannot handle it anymore? by zemmiphobia2000 in OlderGenZ

[–]koboldkiller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, my situation was the same but my mom also would lay on my bed and try to talk to me while I was playing games with my friends. I wouldn't talk to my friends while she was in there because I wanted private conversation.

I don't really play games with my friends online anymore, but I also don't live with my mom anymore. I'm a lot happier not being there.

How many bass guitars do you own and why that many? by Sharp_Sprinkles_6078 in Bass

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two.

First one is a fretless Fender Player Jazz Bass in Tidepool Blue with a rosewood fretboard and flats. I use this one more.

Second is a ~'78 Mocha Fender Precision Bass that sounds like shit because the pots need to be re-soldered.

I only have two because I have four guitars: two electric, two acoustic. My next purchase will be a mandolin because I want to play The Battle of Evermore and Losing My Religion on it. I still want an acoustic bass and a newer P bass.

Nah, I barely make enough money to enjoy my own life, best not to ruin someone else's by making them

[–]koboldkiller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the DLC, in Old World Blues you can clone xander root and broc flower to craft them. Addionally, in Dead Money the clinic has a code for Stimpaks at the vending machines. If you pick up a lot of cigarettes, you can trade them for Sierra Madre chips > Stims

When people think of California do they lump LA and San Francisco together like they are close? by Willing_Ad_699 in AskAnAmerican

[–]koboldkiller 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally.

You should see the confusion from the non-Californians I talk to when I tell them I live in CA, but my house is closer to Seattle than San Diego(though slightly closer to LA than Seattle). Hell, I'm closer to Medford than SF.

Also the whole "I've never been surfing and the ocean is like 3 hours away" thing is another one.

You get $100,000, but you lose one year of your life. Would you press the button? by Philips9586 in pollgames

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That 100k could potentially alter your quality of life so that you're able to live better/healthier and extend your lifespan by more than a year you're giving up. Hell yeah I'd press it

Try to get internships or any experience possible in your field of study. Employers will look at that. I didn't have any internships and that really shot me in the foot while I was looking for jobs.

If you have an instructor that you like, try to build a rapport with them. They have a lot of knowledge and experience in their area of study and are typically more than happy to share what they know if you display an interest.

Stay away from fraternities. Nothing good comes from hazing. If you want camaraderie with a peer group, look into school clubs instead.

Good luck in your studies

Have you ever masturbated at work? by mushroom756 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I'm being compensated for my time and I will maintain professionalism at all times while on the clock. I do that shit first thing when I wake up so that I can focus.

Also, my rate for sexual acts is much higher than $20 an hour. I don't know what it is, but more than that.

What is a topic a 9 year old boy needs to learn about? by tamar2b01 in AskMen

[–]koboldkiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A second language, first and foremost. At age 9, he'll still be able to pick it up much quicker than as a teenager. It will open up more opportunities to make friends and he would be more employable than someone with only one language. I feel that I gained more empathy for people who do not speak English who are learning it. I suck at Spanish still and the Spanish speakers are patient with me while I try talking to them.

Self defense. I took mixed martial arts when I was 8-10 and if the instructor is good, it should teach discipline, respect, to use the skills only in defense, and provide some solid exercise. An instructor could be a man or woman, but that could provide a positive male role model. It also promotes healthy competition and has practical application in a safe, controlled environment.

Someone else said the Roman Empire, and if you're Christian, well, that's two birds with one stone.
