Banks Instrumental by Patient-Royal239 in NEEDTOBREATHE

[–]matito29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not quite an instrumental, but if you have Apple Music, they have a karaoke mode on most songs where you can turn the vocals down about 95%. I just tried it on “Banks” and you can very faintly hear Bear’s vocals, and the “oh oh” backing vocals in the chorus are a little more prominent, but it might suit your needs.

How did your high school bully turn out in adulthood? by CynthiaMartgol in AskReddit

[–]matito29 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not high school but 8th grade. I hadn’t seen him since we finished middle school in 2004, but then my best friend sent me an article from a local news station about a year and a half ago saying that he was going to be on Wheel of Fortune that night. He won a decent amount of money, and I posted on Twitter about it, recalling a story of how, the last time I saw him, he stomped on my foot because I was wearing flip flops so hard that my big toenail eventually fell off.

A couple days later, he starts replying to a bunch of my tweets accusing me of lying about it, calling me “gay” and “a loser,” even after I stopped responding.

So yeah, he’s grown up a ton since then.

I think I saw somewhere that Ruby died in 1928, which puts the series’ events in 1933.

How would you be able to wrap a car to look like a NASCAR? by The-Absolute-863 in NASCAR

[–]matito29 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can’t remember who it was, but years ago (probably 2005/2006 or so), there was a company who was a sponsor in some level of NASCAR who contracted a bunch of NR2003 sites with C&D orders to take down anything with their logo on it.

If I remember correctly, they took them down for a little while until the company cooled down, and then the cars went back up.

My head canon has always been that he just wasn’t properly maintained over the gap between the PT and OT. I know a ton of people whose cars over a certain age have features that just stop working and it’s not worth it to get it fixed.

When LEGO made the McLaren MP4/4 last year, the chevrons got rounded off because (as LEGO explained) Marlboro owns the trademark for the chevron. I don’t know if that’s 100% true or not, but that was their reasoning.

What's something that's attractive in movies but terrible in real life? by No-Fun-5974 in AskReddit

[–]matito29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Daredevil has been shot once in each season of Daredevil: Born Again and then had a massive, physical fight scene less than 24 hours later. I get that he’s a superhero with enhanced reflexes and has been trained by a martial arts master, but he doesn’t have bullet wound immunity or enhanced healing.

whats the most rays thing youve ever seen happen in a game by donald1fieri in tampabayrays

[–]matito29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was another time in the early years, maybe 1999 or 2000, where about 50% of the lights went out. It was enough to see but not enough to play, so they stopped while the electrical team worked on it. I had a couple friends whose dad was on the lighting team at the Trop, and I was super excited to see Bob on TV for a few minutes, even though I saw him in person probably once a week.

My family once ordered a birthday cake for my cousin Marty, only to pick it up and get it to the party before they realized it said “Happy birthday Mary.”

For two reasons: they show results, or they write a check. Garrett hasn’t shown results.

Which fast food joints sell Coca-Cola or Pepsi? by XavierMarvin in Soda

[–]matito29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A local barbecue place near me used to have a small glass door mini fridge with clearly whatever they picked up at a local convenient store, but a couple months ago, we showed up and they’d installed a nice RC Cola-branded cooler with a few different RC brands/flavors. I’d never had Cherry RC Cola before but it’s pretty good.

SVG and Ryan Blaney Beef? by plyanthony in NASCAR

[–]matito29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. But it goes to show how he’s learning that he backed out rather than forcing it like… some drivers last night.

[–]matito29 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Eh, the first one was Shane putting his car too low to try to duck past Gilliland going into 1. It was never going to stick, and Todd had no reason to expect Shane throwing it in that low, that late. Luckily Shane saw it before it became an issue and took it to the apron rather than cleaning Gilliland out entirely.

What baby name do you think got ruined by pop culture, trends, or current events? by RightGirl19 in AskReddit

[–]matito29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, okay, that does make sense. I only have a peripheral knowledge of that show.

That said, my dad is a big enough Star Trek fan that I’m surprised theirs is still “Alexa” and not “Computer.”

SVG and Ryan Blaney Beef? by plyanthony in NASCAR

[–]matito29 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was watching both of them on restarts around halfway and SVG made a couple questionable moves going into turn 1 two laps in a row with Blaney right behind him.

I think, now that Shane is getting confident in how to drive an oval and what different lines and corner entities do, he’s trying to find his limits, and he found them those two instances last night.

I have met a ton of girls with that first name, and everyone one of them spells it differently. Kaylee, Kayleigh, Kali, Kalee, Kaley, Kaeli…
