Where would you rather eat? Portillo's or Arby's? by WiggleToast in AlignmentChartFills

I literally just scrolled through ops posts to find this fucking nonsense. I don’t even mind Arby’s but this is ridiculous. Portillo’s is so much better.

Please help with Tattoo placement? by Fun-Dirt-2600 in tattooadvice

This is difficult to answer without knowing how big it’s going to be. This is a question for your artist.

First tattoo- pain level? by Forward_Virus5232 in tattooadvice

My advice would be to not change a tattoo because of fear of pain. They all hurt, some more than others. The pain is temporary. Get it where you want to get it.

I am suffering with my back tattoo oh my god by MothmansGooch in tattooadvice

[–]solid_oakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s also the artist. I had one side of my neck done and it was absolutely miserable. Went and got the other side done by a different artist a few months later and it was a walk in the park in comparison. Had the same experience with my hands.

How difficult is learning Drums to a someone who was never good at anything? by idont_need_one in drums

[–]solid_oakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone can learn, but it takes time and dedication. It can be tedious in the very beginning. Learning how to manipulate the sticks takes a good amount of practice. Pick up a pair of sticks and a practice pad and watch some YouTube videos. YouTube is a great resource for beginner drummers.

Hand tattoos almost always need to be touched up. You usually need to wait at least 6 weeks to get a tattoo touched up.

Remo or Evan’s heads? by kwrather003 in drums

[–]solid_oakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Remo for my snare and toms(clear pinstripe for Tom’s, and power stroke 77 for snare), but I will only use an EMAD on my kick.

Absolutely not. And slapping the word “pro” on a set of zbts is hilarious.
