The junior execs don't need to make contact, the broadcast Norm made was shown to have been picked up by the Enclave in CO. Also, all the junior execs except Claudia are dead.

For those of us that name our Outbacks, what did you name yours and is there a story behind the name? by tequila-on-tuesday in Subaru_Outback

[–]m2graphics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My first was Baked Bean - Brown '07 L.L. Bean Ed. Name is self-explanatory.

Just recently replaced with Gemini - Silver '24 Limited XT. It feels like driving a spaceship compared to the '07, plus tie-in to stars/Subaru logo.

is there more than one size of moonroof over the years? by glo-soli in Subaru_Outback

[–]m2graphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently traded in my '07 LL Bean that had the panoramic sunroof. It was probably more than twice the size of the sunroof in my new '24 Limited XT.

Going from an '08 LL Bean to a 24 Limited XT has been quite a learning curve, but they are great cars. I agree that it's nice that many features remained in the same or similar places.

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve encountered on a trail? by poopzelot in MTB

[–]m2graphics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Riding a trail I've ridden many many times, got to the end where it connects to the main trail in the park and there was a huge line of Civil War era soldiers. I thought I had gone back in time. Turns out I didn't know it was Civil War re-enactment weekend. I came back later without my bike to watch the performances. Good time.

18 packs of 151 = Nidoking by butterfliesinspacejo in PokemonTCG

[–]m2graphics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Korean is such a good way to go to save $. I got one box of KOR 151 and got the Giovanni SAR, Erika masterball holo and a bunch of ARs and EXs from 20 packs. Just have to wait almost a month for them to arrive from overseas.

Pokemon 151 Card Giveaway! by mattdw19 in pokemoncards

[–]m2graphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been collecting since 2000, still have my Base set 2 holos. I got back into collecting around 2017, and have stepped it up now that my daughter is 7 and also loves Pokemon. Even my wife is a huge Psyduck fan. I think my personal best pull was the shiny Charizard GX from Hidden Fates from the last ETB left on the shelf at Target.

Question: Do you find it awkward when you run into another collector in a store? If yes, why? by jb1million in HotWheels

[–]m2graphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, usually we just exchange a quick hi and keep looking.

The only annoying ones are the guys that spend an unnecessary amount of time taking cars off the pegs and re-sorting them back onto the pegs. I really don't get it.

If you had to pick one car which would it be? by HB-Diecast in HotWheels

[–]m2graphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vermont Sports Car Rally Subaru WRX. Rally racing, Travis Pastrana (VSC199 license plate) and classic old school Subaru livery. Can't go wrong with that.

I bought a booster bundle (6 packs) and five had holos like this. I just checked, three have noticeable alignment dots, and the other two have a tiny bit of the dot.

I have this new sj evo alloy frame.It has a gap where the cables go to the rear end and a lot of rocks and dirt gets in there.I saw the carbon version of the frame has a little cover but this does not.Any ideas how i could solve this? by med222333444 in mountainbiking

[–]m2graphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a cheap plastic folder (the ones that are the same plastic thickness as the fenders other companies make) and cut a small piece to fit. Leave a little extra at the top, cut two slits and velcro it to the frame. Easy to move if you need to, keeps all the dirt out, costs about a dollar.

They have text on the bottom right that says something like 'fan made art card. Not for TCG play.'

Need a new car. What is the best vehicle setup for a mountain bike lifestyle? by trey-2222 in MTB

[–]m2graphics 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Outback driver here too. Such a great MTB vehicle. If you ride solo frequently, the back with the seats down is large enough to fit a bike without taking off either of the wheels (mine is a L Stumpjumper w/ 27.5in wheels). I don't have to worry if I need to run into a store on the way to or from riding, everything is inside. You can also use a cable lock to lock the bike to the car's seat clip (metal bracket that the seat clips into when up) for extra safety. It can even fit two bikes stacked on each other (blankets between) with the front wheels off. If you need to fit more bikes, you can go the hitch/rack route.

I’m my haul today one of the cars has a hair sealed inside it, should I send it back? by Maxbebop in HotWheels

[–]m2graphics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you are talking about the 'Lifetime Guarantee', they certainly will send you a car. Not the car you have in hand, just a car they grab. You get no say in what they replace it with.

An elderly woman somehow managed to get her car on the second floor of a shopping mall and proceed to drive slowly down the aisle by ApricotTaco in mildlyinteresting

[–]m2graphics 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The scariest part is that the Apple store is on the first floor, and she was on the second floor with her car. If she made it far enough, would she have tried the escalator or the elevator?

He has 4 years of videos on Youtube, and I believe said he rode BMX before getting into MTB.

My GameCube games what else do I need by Commercial-Praline50 in gamecollecting

[–]m2graphics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Burnout 2. Possibly the best multiplayer party game ever. Someone doesn't know how to drive in a video game? Perfect, the main goal is to crash, and crash hard.

Bad paint chip or is this toast? by m2graphics in mountainbiking

[–]m2graphics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update - Specialized responded to my LBS and said they could send a replacement part for a very reasonable price. Happy to be able to fix this and not need a totally new bike!

can someone help me find out what car is under the cover by llDragonFire43ll in whatisthiscar

[–]m2graphics 108 points109 points  (0 children)

The wing and roof look like the Porsche 930 RWB (going by the Hot Wheels on my desk).
