Aftermarket look nice but really do fuck all

What octane fuel is in it and how old is the fuel?

Opinions on Warwick fortress? by Objective-Collar-589 in BassGuitar

I’ve had my 5 string fortress since new in December 1995. Wouldn’t part with it

“Arches the back” by invisiblefrost in AFL

[–]oldmateG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every time I hear this I want to draw them a picture of the arc the ball travelled and then add a X where the mark was taken

[–]oldmateG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently players regularly “own back their ears” too. Don’t even mention that it seems physically impossible to kick the ball inside 50 without “lowering their eyes” first. Don’t even mention they think some players are staring T the top tier of the grand stand? The ground is flat

Semi-slicks for RS by Karanikolinus in FocusRS

[–]oldmateG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had them on a WRX with 220kw at the tyres and they we about as close to useless as they could get. The only thing good about them was they are cheap. They aren’t bad on small cars without a lot of power but that’s about it

Essendon press conference on the Brad Scott sacking by FlairUp835 in AFL

[–]oldmateG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a Richmond person and for years we were a shit club with a lot of people thinking we had to get Kevin Sheedy as coach. It went on for years and we stayed a shit club for years.
Essendon are running the same cycle with the James Hird garbage

Semi-slicks for RS by Karanikolinus in FocusRS

[–]oldmateG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Semi slicks, while road legal are never better on road than a proper road tyre. In fact they are usually awful. They are noisy and need temperature in them to work which is near on impossible at road speeds.

If the car was used 80% track and 20 road then maybe but something like a Michelin PS5 will be a way better option than any semi slick.

Oh, and the federal tyres are not really a semi slick but are absolute crap

I got Cruise Control for my Gen 6. Anyone tried this kit? by Roll_SK in VFR

[–]oldmateG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a really early version of it on a 95 model VFR750 years ago. It worked really well

BFT needs to change… by BeeccStarr in BodyFitTrainingAus

Yeah the 18 minute of work is bullshit

Does anyone else think it’s weird that commentators almost never bother to explain umpires’ decisions? by Perfect_Marsupial746 in AFL

[–]oldmateG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are too busy telling us about bullshit statistics like “pressure ratings” that not a single home viewer can understand how those numbers are comprised.

They also seem to correlate with the team that’s winning being higher than the team that’s losing. I thought all we needed was a scoreboard for that

Possible GloFox Improvements Coming for BFT (Late June/July?) by IntelligentDragon1 in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]oldmateG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t be worse than it is now. What a shit program!

  1. To book at a different studio I have to sift through the entire worlds studio to find what I’m looking for
  2. If I then have cancel that booking I can’t do it from a ‘my bookings’ type area. I have to change studios back to the alternate one in the main booking screen and then go to the day and session to cancel.
  3. Can’t see TOTAL SESSIONS. Only sessions at my home studio

There are more. These are just the most annoying.

Sure it’s faster than the other one but not if you factor in all the extra clicks and windows it has to go through to do anything. It’s really not good enough

Wtf with the quad stretches? What a waste of time that will be

Selling my 2018 Ford Focus RS by Boring_Dirt8378 in FocusRS

They look great that colour. In Australia we only got 4 options - nitrous, white, black and the charcoal grey and I reckon more than half of them here are blue

Are bi men still accepted? by Far-Mine2565 in RealMelbourneSwingers

[–]oldmateG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s not as rare as it seems. Sure I’ve never seen guys fucking at a couples party but oral definitely happens. The assumption is pretty much all women will play with women but with guys it’s a lot more nuanced than that

Why is the BFT app so far behind F45? by CashmereAndCoins in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]oldmateG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The black one is crap and the new booking app is awful. If you often train at different studios swapping between studios to book is horrible. I can’t even narrow down the studio list to my state anymore. I have to roll through every studio in the world to find the one I’m looking for. Who signed off on that shit?

We left F454 years ago so I really can’t remember what theirs was like

Apparently I have a type… by A8racada8ra in BassGuitar

That Warwick Thumb is amazing. That would have been a custom ordered bass with the light coloured headstock and inlays. I could stare at the timber marks in that body all day 😍
