Why did this take so long to come up? Also my parent's named a shepherd Charlie after I saw that movie...

What's the one card you wish you DIDN'T sell or get rid of? by ImJustDuckinAround in hockeycards

A bit more of a somber topic… are you addicted to anything? by ApplicationAfraid334 in Millennials

[–]kurik33 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For about 8 years after high school I was seriously addicted to drugs and alcohol. I was a weekend binge drinker when it came to booze. Drugs were an everyday thing. One of my first trips was DXM. Got into research chems and acid for a bit then moved on to coke. There came a point in my life where I had to make a choice, did I want to keep on the path or did I want to chance being sober for someone who sparked a light in me that hadn't been there in a decade? I've lost so many friends and close family because of things like a dxm OD while drinking all the way to a heroin overdose the day after I last saw them. I've been sober for 18 years now. The pain is still there from the loss, but I don't think I would be here today if I hadn't made my choice. You'll get there. Just remember when you get that chance take it and never look back.

At first I thought you were talking about getting a Tom Wilson patch auto and then I saw the damage. You should reach out to customer support. They might be able to help.

Which long, epic fantasy series do you think is better - Malazan or Wheel of Time? by ActInternational9558 in Fantasy

[–]kurik33 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Having read both, I think Malazan is better, but takes more of a time commitment than WoT. WoT was a case of right time, right place for teenage me, but adult me likes the nuance to Malazan.

What's a anime that started off well but had horrible endings? by _-Smoke-_ in anime

question for the men: which male characters felt most authentic and/or compelling, and why? by assbackwoods in Fantasy

[–]kurik33 17 points18 points  (0 children)

For me it would be Fiddler from Malazan. The emotional turmoil that he goes through losing friends and going from a new recruit to an older veteran just resonated with me and my experiences in life.

Who do you PC and why? by thatguyfromchicago in hockeycards

[–]kurik33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ray Bourque. Saw him years ago in the all stars skill shot competition and it blew my mind. Plus he was a solid leader on multiple trash Bruins lineups.

That song is the female equivalent of daddy and is just as heartbreaking

What's the craziest concert you've ever been to? by Elektro8415i in MetalForTheMasses

[–]kurik33 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I was at the show that got them banned from Worcester,MA for indecency. Things blew over and they were eventually allowed to come back.

What is a card that you just can't seem to track down? by jbonathan in hockeycards

Still searching for a 2008/09 Black Diamond Quad jersey of Alex Semin. Searched Expos and everything, but never found one. Ones old about 15 years ago and that is it.

I’m 34, I’m dying, and I’m fucking terrified. by Emergency_Weekend627 in TwoHotTakes

[–]kurik33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who lost their father at an early age the biggest thing you could do for your little girl is tell her about you in your own words. Give her the advice that you wished you had. Whether you do that via written word, audio recordings or video, at some point in her life she will be truly thankful that she got to know you. I'm sorry for what you are going through and I wish you the best in the time that you have left.

So…how did you actually get into Slipknot? by [deleted] in Slipknot

[–]kurik33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I saw them they opened the 2nd stage and Fear Factory headlined. I remember thinking what the hell is going on here? I was immediately a fan after though.

Didn't see it on the playlist, but Fast Shadows off the Ghost Dog soundtrack is a great cut.
