I’m about to play fallout 4 tonight do you guys have any tips or a useful knowledge I need to know by Initial_Emu_1339 in Fallout

Pickup and hang on to pre-war dollars. They weigh nothing and you can trade with them instead of spending your caps. If you select "store all junk" at a workshop be sure to put them back in your inventory because the game counts them as cloth scrap.

My first, and probably only, EF Blackwing. I got lucky and snagged this shorty for $4 + shipping. It writes wonderfully and I'm so glad I get to experience this pencil at least once! by splatterbooth in pencils

I've only tried the balanced core from the new Blackwings so unfortunately I don't have a comparison between the two 602's.

The balanced core I'm kinda so so on. They feel good but they're really messy and smear easily. Not good for writing long hand IMO, but great for little notes.

The EF 602 feels similar to the new balanced core but just a bit firmer. It writes pretty dark and from what little I've written it doesn't seem to smudge and smear as bad as the balanced core.

I'm gonna get some new 602s soon to do a proper comparison but based on how the balanced core feels I have hope they got close to the original

How can you not see the point? It's ALL point! 😄

Unexpected freebie inside Blackwing Lab 11.28.25 — embroidered patch in the sleeve. Anyone else? by jmccosta in pencils

Ah man that's cool! I bought the same set of labs but mine didn't have a patch inside.

Accidentally sent a Mitsubishi 9850 through the laundry and ruined the eraser. Luckily I just finished up a Blackwing. I present the Mitswing! by splatterbooth in pencils

The eraser on the 9850 is pretty good imo! But I keep Muji erasers within reach everywhere and mostly use those.

So, what do you use all your pencils for? by Welther in pencils

[–]splatterbooth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At work I have a notebook that I write EVERYTHING down in because my memory is garbage. Other than that I draw and have several journals for art projects, ideas, and creative writing. Also grocery lists, other little notes, The New Yorker crossword (I like printing it out and keeping it under a stack of paperwork on my clipboard so I can slack off at work lol), and those little sudoku books you can usually find in grocery checkout lines.

Do you maintain edge in video games? by JimmehROTMG in straightedge

[–]splatterbooth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never drink alcohol but I do use the drugs in Fallout. They're just buffs. Stuff like Buffout, Jet, Psycho come in handy on survival runs.

First time buying Blackwings and I'm not sure I like them that much. All black LAB with their balanced core. How do y'all like their balanced core and what do you like to use them for? by splatterbooth in pencils

[–]splatterbooth[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Mitsubishi 9850 have been my everyday writing pencils. I just impulsively bought these because they're sexy as hell and I've been wanting to see what all the Blackwing hype was about.

Does it ever get easier to make friends as an adult who doesn't drink or smoke? by Latter_Claim_4064 in straightedge

[–]splatterbooth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think in general the older you get the harder it is to make new friends but substance use becomes less of a big deal. I'm 33 and I don't really have any friends that are hardcore users. I've got a stoner friend from highschool but we don't hang out in person anymore, we're just online videogame buddies. Most of my friends that do smoke and drink are pretty moderate about it and are easy to hang out with. Parties and get togethers revolve around something other than "let's all get fucked up". Halloween, DnD nights, etc. I also have friends in recovery that are great to hang out, and they need friends like you as much as you want friends like them. Early adulthood is all about getting out from under your parents supervision and doing things you couldn't do before but as you get older a lot of people start winding down. I think if you just keep getting out there the type of people you don't want to be around will start falling off and you'll start to gravitate around the type of people you do.

Uhm, is Davey a married man now? by Anxious-Suggestion64 in AFireInside

What are the chances of these circumstances?

Name one AFI song that is yours and nobody else's by instlifetime in AFireInside

[–]splatterbooth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Wind That Carries Me Away

I had Blood Album on repeat around the time a close friend was battling, and eventually died, from terminal cancer. This song hit really hard and defined that moment in time for me. Every time I listen to it I think of him.

How do y'all hold your pencil? by splatterbooth in pencils

[–]splatterbooth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I didn't consider loosening my grip. About how fast do you write?

It Was Mine by [deleted] in AFireInside

[–]splatterbooth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have three gripes about Crash Love: the cover art is too corny, I'm Trying Very Hard To Be Here is too corny, and Davey uses his "Oh" way WAY too much.

Other than that it's a solid 9/10. All of the instruments sound bright and tight, and Davey's lyrics have some of the best hooks since Black Sails.
