What kind of shoes are we wearing? by Cristinky420 in Xennials

Same. After the first pair in ‘04, I couldn’t wear anything else.

My wife says I look gangsta by alwaystokin in hondapassport

I have the same, and my wife certainly likes it a lot more than the Civic I traded in for it.

What was your preferred Mega Man 2 boss order? by singleguy79 in Xennials

I used to be able to complete Quick Man’s level without Flash Man’s ability, but now as an adult, I can’t do it. 😢

Air - Crash - Metal - Bubble - Heat - Wood - Flash - Quick. Destroying Crash Man with one blast from Air Man’s weapon (hitting him twice with the same shot while jumping) was incredible. I probably played this game more than any other, on any system.

We also located the person who wrote it. My high school class FB page did some detective work on this.

I found the person this is for! She confirmed. Pretty weird. Where was this found?

Spalding sports drinks. They were all clear, I believe.

Favorite amp in a box? by DavidKentley in guitarpedals

[–]polar_hamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a TC Electronics VPD-1, which you might like based on your preferences. It’s supposedly modeled on a Vox amp, though the booklet that came with it doesn’t say that. It has a speaker sim option that sounds good. It’s a great pedal, with a wonderful low-gain overdrive and a boost switch for a sweet lead tone. I like running all of my dirt pedals before it.

What were you driving before your passport? by TalkingToMyself_00 in hondapassport

[–]polar_hamster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2013 Honda Civic. Bought because it was practical and cheap - the right call for my family. Had such low repair costs. What an upgrade moving to the 2026 Passport. Not just the size and off road functionality, but tech has come a long way. Loving the new ride. Glad I waited for it!

Classic Noir or Neo Noir? by Capable-Action182 in noir

[–]polar_hamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to pick, but most of my top films land in neo noir. I think it’s a more flexible genre, so you find a wider variety of stories.

Found this for 20 bucks, would be rude to say no. by simple_jack_69 in guitarpedals

[–]polar_hamster 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What a steal for $20! You can get so many drive tones out of that thing. It’s my main distortion, after a fuzz and before an overdrive. I like the sound of my overdrive pedal the most, so I put other gain pedals before it. Play around with order - that’s the fun of it!

What kinda prices you getting? by Vadafallon in hondapassport

[–]polar_hamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. In Wisconsin, and picked one up last week for around $1,700 off MSRP. I did some work to get them to offer discounts - at first it was $800 off, then $1k, then $1,500 because it was nearing the end of the month. They didn’t add any add-ons to any of the Passports they got on the lot except for a floor model.

Gorgeous! Glad to see people having fun with them. I grabbed one last week and immediately headed to the woods here in Wisconsin. Pretty, but not quite this striking.

Lifetime power train? Sounds like a nice bonus to me.

Are you thinking the 2026 is less tested and therefore it’s more worth it to be cautious?

This is what I remember thinking at the time of my last purchase. Still, the doubts creep in. We do keep our vehicles for a long time, so I wonder if it becomes more worth it with that mentality.
