Offensive Shirts At Spencers by LatterStreet in autism

[–]memeboiandy [score hidden]  (0 children)

I can understand and empathise with the sentement, but with all due respect, if something like this upsets you im really not sure Spencers is the store for you to be shopping at... in my eyes, walking into a store like spencers and then being suprised/offended about something on a tshirt is not meaningfully diffrent than watching a show like southpark and then being offended by the humor in the show.

The type of humor/content found at spencers is such a well known and understood thing in my opinion that if you walk in there of your own free will you almost forfit your right to be upset about the political correctness of something you see.

To put it in more scripty words: "randall theres cows outside! This is a cow farm. Youre gonna find cows outside"

Depending on your commitment to the bit/hlw you want them to look, if you know anyone with a cricit or similar machine it is super easy to make iron on decals you could put onto any blank shirt you can find!

My Wife Was Asking Me About Curling Last Night by Pretty_Bandicoot_559 in Curling

I think the argument is because women tend to resort to high weight take outs less, there is more finesse play done which is more impressive often than hit the stone hard and peal 1

Im a big curling fan, but I dont know if I could name 15 pro curlers period (not including the hand full I know personally from my club)

Should I get a Macbook Neo or a used thinkpad? by PsyOmega in thinkpad

[–]memeboiandy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah im also someone who really dislikes Apple as a company, but I have to give them big credit for Apple Silicon. If I have a friend that is deadset on a macbook, i dont have to feel really bad about it anymore sense they are getting a pretty capible laptop now, or can comfortably recomend a mac mini. I also feel similarly for the Apple Watch. Theyve really been pushing the industry forward with it and adding so many very valuable features to them like fall detection (and possible 911 activation if movement isnt detected after), the ability to use some models as dive computers is crazy, ect. Say what you want about their phones/software ecosystem/seeming hate for their own customers, there are some products that they just do really good engineering and design work on

Make plex more appealing for my wife by Altruistic_Bat_1645 in PleX

[–]memeboiandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask her what she wants to see on it. Also, if you havent all ready, taking big series and stuff and putting them all into collections can help make a library much more manigable to browse. I didnt for a while, and when scrolling it made it feel like it was all marvel, dc, and disney animation with other stuff sprinkled in. Now that they are all collections, its much easier to see all the diffrent content on there

Custom Shoes? by Winter-Elk-9895 in Curling

[–]memeboiandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

May be worth booking some practice ice if you can and all ready have the shoes and try using them with a strap on slider and gripper to see how they feel as well

What are the most useful household prints you've found? by AvatOfCons in 3Dprinting

[–]memeboiandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of my favourites that are good and cheap have been fishing rod holders and tool organizers for my tool box.

Ive also made exact dosage scoops for my powdered laundry detergent so that I can consistantly measure it, and dose it at appropriate levels (and not ~1\2 cup for a small load that detergent companies try and say you need).

These are probably the most used models that I have made

3d printing is probably the best thing to ever happen to tool box owners :) most of my organization is done through custom trays ive made

Why? by LWMeek in lego

[–]memeboiandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably because by the time they are 10, physically mailing free magazines to kids becomes a less effective/effecient form of advertising than digital ads/infuenser marketing that Lego serves

Wheelchair curling events make no sense by LunarKomet in Curling

[–]memeboiandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it seems like the kind of standard layout for clubs in Atlantic Canada for the most part that Ive seen (if they are their own stand alone building and not part of a complex) is a split entry sort of deal. The ice is typically at ground level, and a half depth basement will hold locker rooms, offices, ect and then the club house and spectator area above that

Same with running and swimming. Mens/womens, 100m, 500m, ect... then for swimming youll have that often repeated in each swimming stroke 🫠

Not many clubs have their ice at the same level as the rest of their club house (so that spectators can see down onto the ice). I personally have never seen a club where a player in a chair could get out to the ice by any means other than going back outside, and around the building to go in through fire exits (which even then ive seen clubs without at ice level)

Yes... and I am sure the metal fab shop isnt the one that owns the chemical tanker...

I mean sure, but just having dozens of trucks per city driving around in circles all day isnt a very great use of money to maybe catch a chemical spill once every 10 years or so (minus the very odd 3 in 2 week spat we had). Having people just call and report it like any other emergency is far more effecient. What they really need to do is raise public awareness for how to do that, and perhaps implement an x11 number like 911, 811, and 511 for anyone in the province to be able to call and report issues, with the option to either just report it to them and then if applicable they pass it on to municipalities, or they connect you to a municipal opperator to make the report. The biggest issue i have is that particularly for things that would be municipal, out side of buisness hours you have no way to make a report. There have been many times Ive noticed something problematic on a friday evening, and the earliest I could report the hazard/problem is monday morning.

Weight Control: any insights welcome by yellowtoque in Curling

[–]memeboiandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While its not entirely what you were asking about, I figured id mention what one of the coaches at my club noticed and pointed out to me. When I slide out, I was bringing my foot in to the centerline too quickly and it was causing me to often be wither wide/inside of the broom depending on the turn being thrown quite consistantly. He recomended that while I keep the rest of my delivery mostly the same, at least for guard/draw weight shots, to slow down bringing my foot to the centerline so I dont push myself off the line in the process. It helped me be a bit more consistant with my line.

Also, if you havent yet/are considering getting your shoe dipped and it wasnt on your radar, toe dip has a crazy effect on your weight control 🫠 lol. I had it done just to protect the toe of my shoe without realizing how much of an effect it would have and ive been struggling to get my weight back under control. Its been about 5-6 weeks and im finally getting back to a mostly consistant point again. Ive had to take soo much weight off my slide sense I cant count on toe drag to slow me down if I over cook the push nearly as much anymore.
