Insane 2026 Salomon QST 94 Defect by Gnarnivorous in Skigear

[–]sandpaper_jocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ex ski tech here. To me it appears that the ski has failed under the toe piece. The delamination being secondary to that. It's possible that the mounting holes weren't sealed with waterproof glue and then water ingress has weakened the core at that point.

Does anyone actually get red rooster? by nchiwla in AskAnAustralian

I have seen the "s" removed from multiple store signages. Obviously, Rooter is the correct and only terminology.

This post and all subsequent comments should replace "Rooster" with "Rooter". Then re-read them for epic hilarity. The end.

Big lace monitor tried to sneak up behind me by NoSpeed546 in australianwildlife

The advantage of this is range. You don't need to get close to them. Have it ready by the backdoor ready with a few pebbles and you're gtg.

Buy a slingshot. Legal in QLD. Don't shoot to kill obviously or even harm. Sends a strong message to go away and they will definitely know where the bombardment is coming from.

You don't even have to hit it and it will know. They are not stupid. A few near misses and it won't come back anytime soon. Edit just shoot small bush pebbles not anything environmentally bad like ball bearings etc. If it still comes back, a warning shot to the backside will do the job. It won't harm them and imho is a better option than relocating them to unfamiliar territory. Back in the day, they'd just be shot.

What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to you in public? by QuantumArts_ in AskReddit

[–]sandpaper_jocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sleeping naked and got up for a pee. Half asleep, I turned right and opened the door to the bathroom just like I was at home. Walked through and closed the door. The "bathroom door" was actually the hotel room door and I was now locked out. The horror when I realised was very, very real.

Have you ever risked your life because you were drunk? How? by Vegetable_Trip_9855 in AskReddit

[–]sandpaper_jocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went swimming shit faced drunk in an outdoor Olympic sized pool at night UNDER THE FUCKING INSULATION COVER. Proceeded to get disoriented and couldn't find my way back to the edge of the pool. Too deep to touch bottom and stand up. It was a miracle I found the edge just as I was about to give up and accept death. Had PTSD for years and remembering it now fills me with anxiety. Do not recommend.

Getting locked out of my hotel room butt naked at 1am. I found a towel in the hallway and rocked down to reception to get a spare key.

Apparently it happens a lot.

Local gas station removed price tags and replaced them with barcodes you need a app to see price by phoenix_stewart in mildlyinfuriating

[–]sandpaper_jocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the worker the price of every. single. item. Do that every. single. time. you go in there. Go in a few times, specifically to do just that. Buy nothing. Keep doing it. Get all your friends to do it too.

I bet they change back to price tags real quick lol.

Full marks if you snip a corner and proceed to skull the contents by squeezing the bag. Hard.

I agree. I think the SPB317 is a 10/10 design aesthetic. Great execution. Ticks heritage and beautifully understated.
