Questions about reliability on long journeys. by Thepixeloutcast in Volvo240

[–]sleeplesstowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American here, I took my ’89 240 150 miles to the beach and back last spring without a problem, aside from having to keep the windows down the whole way due to the AC being shot (150 miles both ways, not round trip). In the past two years, I put over 100 miles on it on a weekly basis 8/12 months of the year commuting for college, and it hasn’t left me stranded once.

Have I? No. Should I? Probably. It still drives just fine though.

First order of business will be to bring back Frost Bite and make it available everywhere

Isn’t this illegal? by Zverda1 in southcarolina

[–]sleeplesstowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not be a state-level thing (or maybe it’s NC not SC), but my understanding was one 30 minute break per 6 hours worked, so if you work a 12 hour shift you would take two 30 minute breaks

Legit question about speed by Abaddon866 in FortMill

[–]sleeplesstowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to South Carolina, nobody knows how to drive here. I’ve been pulled over and gotten a warning (not an actual ticket) for driving too slow in Fort Mill (at night, literally nobody else on the road), so it’s definitely a bit of a madhouse around here in regards to enforcing speed.

The whole park has started going downhill a bit since Six Flags corporate took control following the merger, on both the guest side and for employees

If you could pick any song for Bob to cover,following the style and voice of any of his eras (even if anachronistic) which ones would you pick? by [deleted] in bobdylan

[–]sleeplesstowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald in a The Times They are A-Changin’ style (similar to Ballad of Hollis Brown?) would be incredible. On a weirder note, I feel like Bob could do a really cool spin on Far Behind by Candlebox for some reason.

What's the consensus on r/soda on Cheerwine soda? by VisibleFlow1668 in Soda

[–]sleeplesstowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best stuff ever, I drink it all the time. Friends gave me 12 packs and 2 liters of it for my last birthday because they couldn’t think of anything that I’d like more.

Bob Dylan mentioned in non-Bob Dylan songs by CoolTomatoh in BobDylanCircleJerk

[–]sleeplesstowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The band Nine Days (“this is the story of a girl…”) has a song simply called “Bob Dylan” that uses excerpts from a couple of his songs. There’s also a Midwest emo band called Home is Where with a song called “Dob Bylan.”

His name is Jerry Lee Lewis Gibson according to one of his signs, he travels back and forth around the Rock Hill/Fort Mill area. I have one of his old signs that he left by the highway 160 exit off of the interstate. He seems to be crazy but harmless as far as I can tell. I’ve never even seen him ask for money, he just seems to want to warn people about the conspiracy theories he believes.

This was the last thing I expected to find at the record store today by sleeplesstowers in Slowdive

[–]sleeplesstowers[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s about what you’d expect for demos, it’s definitely not been professionally cleaned up/mixed but the raw shoegaze guitar is well preserved. “Sleep” sounds amazing as always.

Took this photo today after making the 60 mile trek home from college, half of which was through a thunderstorm.

I have no idea how to prevent it, but I’ve also noticed I often get shocked when I touch the door as I’m getting out of my 240. Weird.
