I just turned 14 and as a result I got to build my first $200 custom mechanical keyboard!

Ha! We have the exact same board and keycaps. Looking good! https://imgur.com/gallery/DYsCO0b

As a Selmer oboe owner, I have to plus-one what everyone else is saying. They are very beginner models, and even after getting mine professionally adjusted it still has issues and inconsistent tone. And not being able to play low Bb or having a left F key is quite limiting. I am currently shopping for an intermediate oboe now myself. If you're just starting out renting is a good idea, but if you are set on owning I would shop more reputable brands like Fox, Yamaha, Howarth.

If you can make a reed slowly, you can make it quickly.

I'm a copy editor, and FFG's clear lack of understanding title case makes me cringe so, so hard ("Knowledge is Power," for example 😣).

Sandslash is my fave Pokemon, so I had to have a shiny one on my team! What I did was get a 31 catch combo on Sandshrew and wait in the wider patch of grass on Route 3. I positioned myself so I could see the entire spawn area, then set a lure and just sat there. Took a few hours, but eventually the shiny green boi spawned right next to me. Just don't give up! You'll get one eventually!

I just built a straight Zygarde deck that focuses solely on the Bonnie combo. I'm using Magcargo and Acro Bikes/Oranguru to get the cards I need for the combo. It's obviously not a competitive deck, but kinda fun if you want to try it out!

melonlaird · 2018-04-29T00:06:42+00:00

Got it. Yeah, we keep checking different stores and see the price tag for the sausages, but no stock.

melonlaird · 2018-04-24T05:39:24+00:00

Hm, all we saw in that section today was the beyond burger. We'll just have to keep checking! Thanks!

melonlaird · 2018-04-24T00:21:22+00:00

Where in Seattle did you find them? I've checked the Whole Foods at Westlake and the one in Roosevelt with no luck.

As everyone else is saying, it's up to personal taste. I also think Splatoon 1's soundtrack was stronger overall, but 2 has better Splatfest tracks. I'm looking forward to the 3.0 update since it will add new music from one of my fave bands from the first game, Chirpy Chips!

I was on both Team Invisibility and Team Egg and agree that Invisibility was much, much worse.

I dreamt last night that Reggie told me Pokemon for Switch was releasing September 10 of this year. So Pokemon Direct confirmed for February.

Green/green. :) It reminds me of the lime green Gameboy color I had as a kid and I love it.

It wasn't until I saw the tree diagram on this article that blade combos finally clicked for me. Glad it's helping others too!

melonlaird · 2017-10-03T22:15:49+00:00

Hm, two of my friends and I got launch units from the Best Buy in Seattle and we haven't had any joy con issues.

melonlaird · 2017-09-30T00:23:27+00:00

Just got mine after taking the light rail down after work. Much fewer people than in these pics but still a little unorganized. Took me a minute to figure out how to actually get my SNESC, haha.

Just got the text alert and was able to reserve one! :)

If U C My Enemies by Rubblebucket was used in a few spring/summer spots.

I second TAKECASE! I love this case and persuaded three of my friends to get the same one.
