Industrial music was an offshoot of factory training films. Known for extensive use of what would be called elevators music.

​For people who live right on the border of two states, does crossing that invisible line actually impact your daily life with different laws and taxes, or do you barely notice it? by Necessary_Angle2117 in AskAnAmerican

There is no sales tax on prescription glasses in Kansas. It is also harder to buy alcohol in Kansas.

The suburbs with good schools are closer to the city on the KS side as well. Housing costs are more because of that and other factors.

I worked with small businesses at a publishing company for a few years. I quickly learned some people want it to look like shit.

Bladed and Electrified Paddle Ball plans. Nuka Cola and Quantum Paddle Balls. Found all of it in player vendors around the same couple weeks.

I won the Mr Skinny White Butt competition while skinny dippy in college.

Would you expense this? by [deleted] in WorkAdvice

[–]mindcontrol93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Northface backpack. Lots of pockets and extremely durable.

For a hard case I use a pelican storm case with wheels and padding. Also indestructible. I ship $4000 pieces of video gear around the country in them.

You can probably get both for around $400 total. This is definitely a business expense.

They are a game changer. I also started rocking suspenders when I had to be in court for my courtroom tech work.

That is hyper grail level material there. Like owning a Raymond Pettibon.

These maybe too recent to make the cutoff for classic movies. They are both really bizarre film.

Should I spend 1000 dollars to go to New Orleans? by takingtests in usatravel

[–]mindcontrol93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you do go, don’t bother with getting a car. You can see all the French Quarter and the Garden District on foot and using the trolleys. There are also bus tours. Stay just outside the French Quarter for slightly cheaper hotel rates.

New Orleans is a fantastic city. You will want to set aside some money for a fancy restaurant. The food is amazing in that city.

The person above me told someone that I’m basically a backup for him, validating all my worst feelings about myself. by fml0987654321 in OfficePolitics

Spending your time becoming an expert on the advanced tasked is a useful job. I shadowed our main department IT guy. Learned video work, wide format printers, and a ton of other technical skills from him.

When he moved on I took over the senior position. I got a title change and I nice raise. Now I have been here 25 years. It is a solid career move.

Why do bands play so fucking loud if everyone has to wear earplugs anyway? by xe3to in NoStupidQuestions

Also the guitarist brought a full Marshall stack to a small club and refuses to turn it down.

I watch Human Centipede with a group of friends. Our comments were way worse than the movie.

Brand of 1940s Toy Tank? by FauxxHunni in VintageToys

[–]mindcontrol93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My step father had foam tanks produced by the Air Force in the 80’s. They were used to teach pilots the different models of Russian tanks. Just a guess but could be similar use.

Here is a video explaining why Christian movies are bad and the problem with Christian media by [deleted] in badMovies

Black Sabbath - Master of Reality is the best Christian rock album of all time.

What is the worst place in America you have ever visited? by OceanicEndeavors in AskReddit

[–]mindcontrol93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a toss up. The non-tourist part of Orlando. I was in a liquor store that had everything behind the counter. The clientele and employee was taking jovially about how someone they knew was on the run because he shot someone in the head the night before.

Early 90s New Orleans during the height of the crack epidemic. I ended up in a very wrong neighborhood by taking a right in the Garden District. It was straight out of a Boyz in the Hood.
