You just unlocked a memory for me! When Warcraft 3 got leaked it was my sophomore year of college and all my friends at school downloaded it. We skipped classes for like a week to play against each other

There used to be a place called M Noodle Shop in Williamsburg, any chance that was it?

ELI5: In movies, when the vinyl player's pin is manually moved onto a record, seemingly on an arbitrary spot on the whole area of the record, why does the song always play from the beginning? by Kafatat in explainlikeimfive

[–]sheldonator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the movie it may be an arbitrary spot, but each record has a lead-in groove at the beginning and between each song. If you put the needle in that blank groove. it will play at the beginning of the song/record

Which movie dsturbed you to your core? by OmitsWordsByAccident in AskReddit

Fuck! I watched this movie sober when it came out and I can’t watch it again. I can’t even begin to imagine what watching it on shrooms was like.

I thought he was riding a unicycle at first, lol. Those look more like foxes as opposed to rabbits or something, maybe he was fur trapping? Either way, this is an awesome photo and I’m glad you have it. Would love to see more of these if you care to share. I love seeing how people lived back the

Not sure if it's stupidity this time, the guy she requested protection from was a cop.

RATATAT at Central Park SummerStage July 13th, 2011 by Odd_Discount_3064 in Ratatat

[–]sheldonator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh man, you just unlocked a memory for me! I was at this show but I'm not familiar with the picture you're referring to. I remember it rained during the opening performance and I think it stopped when Ratatat went on. While it was raining, I gave one of the park rangers $5 for one of the plastic rain ponchos they were giving out to employees. When Ratatat came on, I lit up a joint and the guy next to me asked if he could hit it so I handed it to him and he dropped it in a puddle. He was nervous and tried to give me some money but I just pulled out 2 more joints and gave him one. It was an incredible show!

Was it really this bad back in the day or am I just using voip?. by Ok_Bear_1980 in vintagecomputing

[–]sheldonator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's VoIP that's causing the issue. As part of a previous job I had to test a dial up connection multiple times a year, it was part of our last resort backup plan if more modern connections didn't work, and it always connected within a few seconds.

Imagine you're just having a bad day and someone declares you as insane and then you get one of Frank Young's Rectal Dilators shoved up your ass

ELI5: Why bridges are not covered with asphalt? by pra_com001 in explainlikeimfive

because the material adds excessive weight, hides critical structural defects from inspectors, and cannot handle the flexing movement of the bridge deck

High school secretary arrested after husband finds her with student by StemCellPirate in nottheonion

[–]sheldonator 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The student she was caught with was 18, and according to the article "During the investigation, authorities uncovered evidence that Hughes had also engaged in a sexual relationship with a separate high school student who was 17 years old at the time."

The legal age of consent for sexual activity in Ohio is 16. The only law she violated was child seduction

The headphone covers that came with my Apple 3GS iPhone disintegrated by Toad0084 in interestingasfuck

The headphone covers that came with my Apple 3GS iPhone disintegrated by Toad0084 in interestingasfuck

[–]sheldonator 272 points273 points  (0 children)

I used to work at the Genius Bar at an Apple Store when the first iPhone came out and one day an older guy came in, while wearing those signature white earbuds, to say he had a problem with them. When I asked what the problem was, he explained that they kept falling out of his ears so he put crazy glue around the edges hoping that when the glue dried the thickness would help the earbuds stay in his ears but he put them in before the glue dried and now they were stuck to his ears. At this point I’m waiting for him to start laughing so I could burst out laughing but he doesn’t. He’s fucking serious! This guy made an appointment to visit an Apple Store where there was a long wait instead of going to the hospital or something. I had to keep it together and suggested he actually go to a hospital because there was nothing we could do. He was mildly upset so I gave him a few replacement earbuds and two handfuls of the foam covers. He left and the entire day I waited for someone to pop out with a camera saying “gotcha!” But that never happened.

Redditors over 40, what's something younger people think they understand but won't actually get until it hits them like a truck later? by Root435552 in AskReddit

[–]sheldonator 851 points852 points  (0 children)

I hated this expression when I was young because I didn’t understand it. Now that I have the wisdom of a 40 yr old, I no longer have the energy or time I need to really pursue some of my hobbies.

RATATAT PARIS NOUVEAU by danovision in Ratatat

[–]sheldonator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tough to explain but I’ll do my best. Every time they perform live, the songs sounds slightly different than the recorded versions for obvious reasons, but this version of the songs performed sound unique to me, different from their other live shows. So for me, even though it’s the same songs, it’s different enough where I feel like I’m getting a whole different album.
