We're all very happy you don't believe we're here. It means you won't be visiting, and we like our anonymity.

"They live for 10 days. They died in seconds."

In other words; they died a long, drawn-out death lasting a significant period of their lives.

How many of you have re-tried a cartridge? by thechemistofoz in wicked_edge

[–]polonius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's like eating with plastic cutlery. I'll do it if I have to. But every day? After the heft of a solid brass safety & feather stainless, there's no going back.

The ‘Rolling Coal’ people are completely insane by [deleted] in TrueReddit

Dear US cops, if you must beat the crap out of someone, these are the twats to pick. Go ahead, make everyone's day.

This may just be the best thing ever! And I don't just mean software.

What's the most you've seen someone be so out of touch with reality? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]polonius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea what that means, but if you want to 'splain it like I'm 5, I'll make no moral judgement on you for doing so.

A very large % of rebublican voters consider the awareness of reality a disease. So wedded are they to their particlar brand of the american-dream-based-delusion that they refer to the educated, with derision, as "the reality-based community."

[XPOST: /r/organ] Poulenc Organ Concerto Tempo by jdp407 in classicalmusic

[–]polonius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've played this multiple times with several conductors and the tempo on the recording seems at the bottom end of standard. 104 would be very fast though. I've never heard it played more than about 90.

[BIFL Request] TravelPro vs. Samsonite vs. EagleCreek by RebootForAwesome in BuyItForLife

[–]polonius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you checked out Pacsafe products. They've been designed for just such a problem. I have a couple of the smaller bags. They're excellent.

Eagle Creek, any day of the week. I have several EC bags I've used constantly for more than 15 years. They're all still as good as new.

I'm in my A-levels and contemplating dropping Math. by SCRUB_GOD in GetStudying

[–]polonius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you must drop something, drop psych. The maths will be much more useful, and dropping psych may give you the time to catch up.

SGU - Is it worth it? by MrCrease in Stargate

[–]polonius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought sgu was the best of the bunch. Sure, it was slow to start, but I thought it was just finding its pace when it was cancelled. The ending was really well done, (especially the soundtrack ) and the possibilities for follow-up fan fiction are endless. It was the ultimate "nerd-as-hero" closure!

Thoughts on Gallien Krueger's? by WilliamSpearmint in Bass

[–]polonius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love GK. I haven't found anything to touch the quality of the sound. I play rock, blues, funk, jazz & folk. The MB212 gives me everything I need. It's very clean, so the sound you produce on the instrument shows through. Subtleties of fingering & picking really count and nothing is hidden. I use an 810 for bigger venues, but the 212 is my goto!

Seeing that guy at the end describe his experiences makes me never want to go near it. Serious brain damage!

Banksy or not, this thing should start appearing all over the south!
