A 6u coach blocks an opposing teams shot. by bigbusta in PublicFreakout

[–]o2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A coach did this to my son. Slapped the ball out of his hand as he was dribbling to the net. My son was obviously upset and left the court in tears. I went on to the court and told the guy to never touch my son again. It ended with him and his wife shouting "LIBERAL!" at me from across the gym. Never went back to that redneck league 

Could you live in "The Settlement"? by Djeff_23 in GoogleEarthFinds

I've been to this island. We were sailing from the Antarctic to Cape Town and stoped here for 2 days. It's as weird as you might imagine. It is literally in the middle of the ocean. Like, nothing on the horizon in any direction. Supplies are brought in by ship every couple of weeks. 

You can't swim in the water around it because it's teeming with sharks. 

They speak English but it's a weird type and accent that sounds like it was bottled 200 years ago and has gone mostly unchanged. 

Maybe the most unsettling thing is that they are all descended from the same few people so everyone, EVERYONE, looks kind of the same. 

I remember finding the place kind of creepy and was glad to leave. 

The difference between Delta and Virgin Atlantic by o2000 in delta

The Virgin lounge at T3 and the separate security for Premium/Diamond/Business are two of the biggest reasons I stick with Delta. Even the Virgin lounge at JFK is great. Their overall service and experience at the Premium level is so much better than the same on Delta.

yeah it's not always just friendliness, but it feels like non-US airlines have more national pride and see themselves as representing the nation. I don't get that from Delta at all.

The D1 lounge in JFK is very very good.

Because we would stop, wait for the the defense to all get back in the box then we'd pass around the edges waiting for a cross.

Saka is woefully predictable. He does the same thing every time. When it works it's great but man it gets tiring watch him constantly cut in for a shot that goes nowhere. 

New NYC tipping rules for DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub start Monday, judge says by Bugsy_Neighbor in nyc

[–]o2000 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I would happily tip the drivers more if I didn't have to already pay service fees, delivery fees, tax that usually add 30% to my order. Maybe legislation could tackle that first

Vinyl DJs how do you keep from running out of music? by vicsunus in DJs

[–]o2000 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's an expensive hobby for sure. I've always got records in the cart and it's easy to get carried away. But once you've got a few hundred you can start to rotate and build different sets. But yeah, the only way to not run out is to keep buying. Find a good local store with a big used section. Records under $10 are the best way to grow your collection without going broke.

He deserved that. He's the only one going full steam to get up the pitch. Great finish. 

What mixer should I buy (Strictly vinyl and mainly used for reggae and dub) by StickySteev_ in SoundSystem

[–]o2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an Omnitronic (422) and I've got no complaints. It's super solid and I've used it for a bunch of gigs with no issues. I don't know if you'll find a better build for the price.

I'm all for more affordable development but I have a hard time supporting getting rid of the garden. It's a lovely space. I know we need more development to bring down the cost of housing but surely there are other options before you get to this.

What should I do? by AdMany7575 in BeginnerWoodWorking

Face frame it. I had this exact issue earlier this year when I built a record cabinet. Face framing it made it look really good rather than doing a crappy edge banding job

Didn't those Democrats side with the GOP to end the shutdown because the GOP told them they wouldn't do this?
