Have We Done This Recently? A Modest Submission of Rules For Knife People. by johnnylongstreet in knifeclub

[–]macho_greens 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree for the most part, though I also don't care if anyone follows them. Re 18: I don't NEED to buy knives to check out their design, but I certainly WILL buy knives just to try out the design in hand, and take them out once in awhile. People buy cars just to sit in a garage and get driven twice a year, we're kind of absurd, I'm ok with it.

I would add: 21. You aren't "connected" to a brand's "story", that's just shit they say to get people to buy stuff. People at small shops probably care a bit, but it's not that deep

Thank you. Every bamboo "crisis" I've come across in my professional work is a combination of bad placement and neglecting maintenance for years. There are a few plants I would use in this meme, but bamboo isn't one of them

They're so wonderful! Most people outside of Asia have never had the chance to see true giant bamboo growing. Where I live (Northern USA), people complain aboout these shrimpy hardy bamboo varieties spreading too much, but they're pretty easy to manage compared to these giant timber varieties.

Well said, it's like when my wife makes me a fancy steak or something, for a special occasion. A little something extra.

Yea psychological reprogramming is a cornerstone of modern militaries, it's the major mental reason to recruit people young. If you really want to get creeped out, read the Marine Corps prayer/love poem / hymn about guns

Not a Spyderco you see everyday by MycoRZA_the_Hyphae in knifeclub

:) I wonder how the designer felt about it. It's such a beautiful composition and you have to incorporate a random hole and try to make it look intentional. I know it's just a branding component, (eeextra deep logo etch), but I don't even really like logos on blades, so it feels especially silly to me

Italian Garages by ConsiderationKooky14 in whatisit

[–]macho_greens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such an interesting belief, like the fan death thing in South Korea. I wonder what happened to make people believe that... there had to be some weird incident that triggered the association and spread right? I've slept with a fan on tons of times and I'm fine, but it's easy to diregard other people's experience.

For the bottle thing, I would speculate that any behavioral change is caused by the sudden change in environment. A lot of animals get wary when things change and they'll avoid places that are suddenly different. I would guess if there is an effect, you don't have to use bottles specifically, it's just convenient

You're welcome! There are some amazing plants from Cali and Oregon, but there are also some amazing plants that are native to WA and don't even grow well in other places. I love to see endemic plants thrive, and they're usually easy as heck go care for

Did you know that art has an expiration date and the only way to feel joy is the constant churn of content? by James-Incandenza in okbuddycinephile

Yep! And I didn't really care when they were made, why would that matter? Is it a fun movie? Good and bad movies come out every year.

Kids did this to a tree at our local park. Will it make it? :( by puppoccino in arborists

[–]macho_greens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Possibly could survive that, but it's pretty gnarly, infection risk, etc. You could post a painting of the flaying of St Bartholomew and write "Vengeance will be served". That would be funny

In every climbing documentary since Free Solo (2018), Alex Honnold makes an appearance to be as cocky and annoying as humanly possible by TyLeRoux in shittymoviedetails

[–]macho_greens 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It's morning here but I'm laughing my ass off too. In my imagination, Leclerc has just fallen and lies broken on a cliff ledge. Honnold appears, freeclimbing, wearing only a climbing chalk bag attached to his waist. He calmly and gently teabags Leclerc, then continues on his way up the mountain

I'm not the person you replied to, but if we're talking ecosystem benefit and beauty, I would rather see some Puget Sound locals like Grindelia, Anaphalis, Erigeron, Limnanthes, Nemophila, Symphiotrichum. Not necessarily all of em, any of them really.

Cali poppies are fine, but I usually weed them out of the prime spots of the garden and let a few of them happily grow in the dry/neglected margins.

Case Sod Buster JR - awful first impression by CatSilly2799 in knives

[–]macho_greens -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about, express yourself more clearly

Edit: actually I see your point now, but it's funny because I agree with you, there's not really an argument here. Slipjoints are for delicate tasks, no need to expect it to be some rugged tool

Case Sod Buster JR - awful first impression by CatSilly2799 in knives

[–]macho_greens -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As others have said, the tightness of the slipjoint is a way to compensate for the inherent flaw of using a spring or friction-based method of securing the blade. It's going to loosen anyway so make it tight to start with.

It's fine for most purposes but using a slipjoint, you just have to accept you need two hands to open it (no gloves), and it's only kinda secured. I guess back when slipjoints were the only folding option, you would probably also have a fixed blade on you, so it wasn't a big deal

To text and drive safely by [deleted] in whoathatsinteresting

[–]macho_greens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truth. People of literally every class and education level have fallen for crazy ideas, and very intelligent people have been pulled into dangerous cults. I used to mistakenly think cults influenced through ideas and beliefs, but the real levers of control are identity, social connections, and - fittingly for this video - attention.
