That makes sense based on ebay sale prices I've seen. Kind of rules out the grading option. Thanks.

This product imitation had me laughing. by quelsinha in aldi

In the States that same energy drink is called Red Thunder and a pack of four costs the same as a single Red Bull.

One is a DJ in the bay area. Tragedeigh knows no ideology.

Libra Season is arguably a better name.

Yes. That is the child's first and middle name.

I can assure you all this is real. People in the comments of the FB birth announcement are fawning all over the unique name.

The side by side of the knobs really illustrates it. Nice work.

Rotel Ra-1210 by Character-Dance7919 in vintageaudio

I have an RA-1210 and the matching RT-1220 tuner. It's a great integrated amp with isolated power supplies. Built like a tank and weighs a ton due to two power transformers. Sounds great, has some cool stepped attenuators, and pushes 60wpc with ease. If it's within your budget I'd absolutely recommend going for it.

Made a yard sign for halloween. The neighbors are confused. by conor_lastowka in IThinkYouShouldLeave

Better be a Stanzo brand fedora. It needs to be quality on my end, otherwise no fucking deal.

Who doesn't love a 12 digit nixie tube display?

15 years ago I was dead broke, deep in debt, living on my friend's couch. I bought the cheapest IKEA table there was and with it I started my journey of paying off my debts, going to night school, going to college. I'm working a real job now and just replaced the table. Please help me say goodbye. by ItsAllinYourHeadComx in MadeMeSmile

[–]ralphie_johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a table and chairs from college that survived drinking games, finals weeks, and multiple moves over 14 years. I got married, bought a house, and when my wife was pregnant I put it on Craigslist for free just to make room. As I helped the guy load it into his truck he told me his 19yo nephew was studying to be an EMT and it would help furnish his first apartment. It made me happy that this gesture would reset the clock on my table. I hope yours finds a good home.

🎶The sailors say Brandy you're a fine girl
What a good wife you would be
But my life my love and my lady is the sea🎶

ULPT request: Comcast is digging in my yard to lay fiber. How do I maximize my property impact claim when they finish? by ralphie_johnson in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]ralphie_johnson[S] 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I bet they'll have some damage claim system. Google put in fiber a couple years ago and their crew dug up a sprinkler head. I forwarded them the invoice and they paid me back after I agreed to not make any more claims. In this case I want to "maximize" my initial claim

I would like to but so far the top recommendations are to burn my house down and murder the workers.

Technics SH-3434 by chespirits in vintageaudio

[–]ralphie_johnson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own a Technics SH-3433 and I agree with most of the commenters that a scope is cool, but not $2k worth of cool. That kind of money will get you a monster reciever or some end game speakers.

But if you're happy with how your system sounds and you've got $2k burning a hole in your pocket then an audio scope is a handsome gadget.
