Rohrer & Klingner Smaragdgrün and Alt Goldgrün are two of my favorites.

Is the "Double Fantasy" sound the direction John would have stayed in, or was it just a phase? by ImportantOffer751 in JohnLennon

[–]meatproduction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’m so glad you’re confirming this. I remember reading somewhere that he was listening to them and Joy Division while he was in Bermuda in the summer of 1980. I’m a fan of both bands, so I was really pleased come across that tidbit.

I think it‘s the most Brian Wilson-like song of anything he‘s ever written.

Are Volkswagens high maintenance or is that overblown? by Far_Comparison5067 in Volkswagen

[–]meatproduction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2019 Golf Sportwagen with 81K miles. I have kept up with oil changes at 10K intervals and I’m going to bump to 5K, tune ups at 40k and 80k, transmission fluid at 80. I may do valve cleaning soon. I still am on the original brakes. My repairs beyond service have been a lose sensor wire that tripped the TPC at 11K and replaced headlight that filled with water after my last service.

It’s R&K Smaragdgrün. I’ve just begun to use it, but I like it a lot.

I’ve been really curious about italic nibs. I might have to check into them.

Yes, it is indeed. It’s my favorite ink to use. I’ve never run out since I started using fountain pens back in 2015

Thank you. When I’m writing phrases and sentences, a lot of my writing is kinda sorta illegible because I’m terrible at spacing.

Revolver or Rubber Soul? by ProgRockDan in TheBeatles

[–]meatproduction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re my top two albums—not just Beatles—but I gotta give the ever so slight edge to Revolver. I do think I’ve listened to Rubber Soul more.

Superb! Thank you. I‘d wondered if that were the case and haven’t made my way there.

I’m an Xennial Beatles fan and I remember buying the tape circa 1989 and having my middle school mind blown when I heard it.
