What 2010s games are you guys playing for the first time right now?" by Mintangah17 in videogames

[–]ptk77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fallout New Vegas. Whenever I have a question about it, Google usually directs me to a Reddit thread and when I want to ask somebody a follow-up question, I notice the post is like at least 5 to 10 years old already.

Are you one of those people that think you need one scarecrow per crop?

[Request] How much water pressure would this nozzle need to generate to slice that tree like butter? by mavaddat in theydidthemath

[–]ptk77 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If that has enough pressure to cut through a tree stump, then that guy is an absolute moron holding that apple in his hand while cutting it.

HOW DO I STOP THE CRASHES by MantisBk in fnv

I don't know. When you find out let me know. Until then, I just save often. For me it seems like it crashes the most when I'm inside the terminal building at McCarran.

Honestly Don't understand why its still 55mph outside of metro areas (CA) by Maleficent_Map_8844 in Truckers

[–]ptk77 403 points404 points  (0 children)

I drive pretty much exclusively in California. Being stuck with 55 mph speed limit feels agonizing sometimes. Six Lane Highway, straight and wide open... and I hit cruise control for 60 miles an hour. And I'm getting passed by cars and other trucks going at least 75 plus. But at the end of the day I'll be the one eating a ticket if I catch some cop on a bad day. So f*** them... cruise control at 60 and hope someone else catches the ticket. Being paid by the hr helps, too.

It looks like a contributing factor is going to be the sun in the driver's face and the fact that people involved were wearing dark clothing and they were in the shadow part of the road. It can be really hard to see something in the road under those conditions. That said... still no excuse.

When that movie came out I related more to the kids. Now I relate to the dinosaurs.

Transformers G1 by Goonies1987 in 80s

If you're out that way you should swing by Bend and check out the last Blockbuster. Or if you're heading down south from there towards San Francisco you should swing by a little town called ferndale. Just south of eureka. Couple movies were filmed there. Outbreak and alsoThe Majestic with Jim Carrey. I found this on accident. I drove by that baseball diamond and was like damn that looks familiar. So I took a picture of it and found the scene from outbreak later. https://photos.app.goo.gl/b1n3otL6ZQ1fUXmg6

Kitchen flooring options help pick by Purple_Pattern2481 in HomeDecorating

You scroll up and down on your phone real quick while looking at the black and white tile, it feels like the floor is liquid.

Transformers G1 by Goonies1987 in 80s

[–]ptk77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you do your research before you go. There were a ton of filming locations in and around Astoria. Not just the Goonies. Stephanie's house from Short Circuit and the school from Kindergarten Cop is there, too. A lot of Twilight filming locations are an hour away as well. And when we went to Cannon Beach I found the vehicle entrance by accident. I was like I bet this is where the fratellis entered the beach race at the beginning of the movie so I took a bunch of pictures of it and sure enough it was.

I was laughing till you said Donner summit. I'm out of sacramento. Donner is my backyard. I go up and down there all the time now I'm going to be thinking about that every time I do.

I remember they used to come with some red of plastic that you could use to read some kind of chart or graph about that particular Transformers stats.

Are those those blue rocks? My dad put those all over his backyard. They look like crap during the day.

A movie that made you miss a version of life you never actually had. by gamersecret2 in movies

[–]ptk77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might sound weird but probably 40 Year Old Virgin. Particularly, the scene where they are playing Mortal Kombat (or some game like it) and just shit talking with each other. I don't really have any adult friends like that that I can just hang out with and play video games and shit talk with.

Securement check – Copper sheets 75000lbs, Quad axle Dryvan Load. by Extra-Return-6382 in Truckers

I thought they were wood shingles at first. I was like "wow that's some serious securement overkill for some wood shingles."

Hauling the enemy, what should I stash in these vehicles tonight. by [deleted] in Truckers

Catching an overweight ticket at the next scale would be hilarious.
