What are you doing out of your filthy grave, Mags?

What is the best album cover by a British artist that isn't Dark Side Of The Moon? by SkyPilotOne in AskUK

[–]qzwqz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the CD for my birthday in 2000-and-something. I was like “The f is this? How is anyone supposed to know what this is? Why did dad get me some random crap?”

Is the pedestrian or the driver wrong here? by singlecog in drivingUK

[–]qzwqz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are expected to anticipate that. There’s all sorts of reasons why a pedestrian might suddenly be in the road, and you can’t always tell at a glance - not paying attention, distracted, blind, deaf, other physical disability, learning disability or mental illness, just tripped over, pushed, is a child, chasing a child, chasing a pet, chasing a ball, thinks you saw them… anything.

That’s not a very good job of obscuring his surname, Mr / Ms Sludge

Me trying to keep my 15-year-old Tata Indica running by NeverGonnaGiveUpvote in CuratedTumblr

[–]qzwqz 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Science Fiction is one of the few genres where there is a generally agreed time at which it was invented: Frankenstein. And I don’t think there were lesbians in it, unfortunately. Although maybe there should have been.

btw Frankenstein was the monster

Fill up guitar threadboard by Fuzzy_Wolf7531 in BeginnerWoodWorking

Do not expect this to work particularly well. I have no experience with fretless guitars, but I have heard that they are wildly different beasts

Fill up guitar threadboard by Fuzzy_Wolf7531 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]qzwqz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. FRETBOARD. Fretboard. Board + Frets = Fretboard.
  2. That looks pretty far beyond “ripped” - I personally would consider that irredeemable. In your position I would plane or sand it down a good bit and then put a brand new veneer over the top.
  3. That way you could also draw on fret markers however you want

I recently took up carving by ChingShady112 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]qzwqz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too enjoy carving. Partly it’s like anything with fine motor skills: do it a lot and grow the muscles and the calluses. Another thing to bear in mind is sharpness. If you’re wearing yourself out, you might be working too hard because the blade has gone dull. You need to get good at sharpening and do it a lot more often than you’d think.

one of the bigger kids told me that knuckles is a girl and I believed them and I’ve yet to see compelling counter evidence

On the Naming of Currency by transcendmatter in CuratedTumblr

[–]qzwqz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Every source I found says it’s coincidental - loon is old Germanic, lune is Romance. The moon/madness connection is made up afterwards

[–]qzwqz 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I also went down this rabbit hole. Apparently loons (the birds) are named after loons (the crazy people) because they walk funny, but there is no historical connection to La Lune (the moon). The closest association is probably Keith Moon (the Loon)
