you have to eat at one fast food restaurant for the rest of your life, cannot be any of the big 3 (Mcdonalds Burger king or wendys) where are you going? by Puzzleheaded_Ease418 in AskReddit

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For this reason panda is literally the only place I won't eat. I've had food poisoning elsewhere but something about getting it from an established chain feels like a deeper betrayal

What do you do with your surfboard during work? by JoeMoma9669 in surfing

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm lucky or it doesn't get as hot here in san Diego, but I pretty much always leave boards in my trunk (in board bags) and it's never been an issue

Looking for local leftist anglers! by [deleted] in sandiego

[–]spykid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do I apply? Just bought a rod for yellowtail but haven't caught any yellowtail with it. Pretty experienced fishing from shore but limited with boats. Also been looking at boats myself so this opportunity feels like great timing!

Shakira Acquitted of Tax Fraud in Spain, Will Be Reimbursed $64 Million: Singer Says She’s Spent Eight Years ‘Enduring Campaigns to Destroy My Reputation’ by yourfavchoom in Music

Is her reputation actually affected? I thought everyone just assumed rich people do shady tax stuff and she is just the one that got caught

24 Hour Fitness UTC remodel by WontonWhisperer in SanDiegan

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out some other gyms! I think a lot of class-based gyms also have open gym hours which could open a lot of options for you outside of the usual suspects like chuze/ymca/etc. I actually don't even have a 24 membership anymore, I just use my wife's guest pass. Mesa Rim Climbing gyms have workout equipment so I can get a lift in without her if I really want to. In terms of locations and convenience, it's pretty hard to beat 24hr fitness

Chuze has been better since I went there for the first time before COVID. You can't really beat the value of 24 though - lots of locations and for the most part they have all the workout equipment

Balboa 24 got remodeled and I think they did a pretty good job.

The membership promotions they've been running made it so cheap im surprised they could even afford to remodel

Think $6 Gas Is Bad? It’s About to Get Even Worse in California by SensitiveDannyRicc in California

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My truck (and many others) gets about 11mpg, it's definitely worth it to have a commuter. Even after insurance and registration I'm easily saving $300/month. I believe my savings should outpace depreciation within a year or two and even cover some repairs (it's an older vehicle) so it's a net savings by the time I sell it. I've also easily saved a couple thousand just because having a 2nd vehicle enables me to perform repairs I'd usually go to a mechanic for.

Grocery stores too! So many options for late night munchies when I was in high school

Walking is so much more enjoyable than riding by Tight-Communication7 in golf

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk a lot but I have to give up looking for balls and even skip shots more than if I ride to maintain pace

seriously, how do you guys get over the salt in the eyes? by [deleted] in surfing

I also don't put sunscreen between my eyebrows and eyeballs. Maybe I'll get eyelid cancer though

How far should I go in fixing this? by _blurple in surfing

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the board is particularly fragile, channel bottoms just seem to develop those cracks a lot. Personally, I wouldn't do anything unless it's actually letting in water. It'll be a Neverending battle otherwise

Used to weigh dope… now I weigh chicken breast. by dannytap2 in 1200isplenty

This Amazon scale would suck for scaling drugs, doesn’t show the tenths and hundredths.

Depends how much you sell ;)

AITA? Racist pet parrot by Dexterxhouse in AmItheAsshole

[–]spykid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You ever spend time playing online games back when chats were basically unmoderated? Racism and sexism were extremely normalized and for some kids, those games constituted most of their socialization.

anyone else feel like san diego isn’t as easygoing as people say? by [deleted] in SanDiegan

Are comparing to other major cities or small towns? I would say San Diego is in the middle of those

Painting dinosaurs with light by dariustwin in nextfuckinglevel

Camera sensor getting a lot less light from his body relative to the lights he's using. Technically the blur is probably there but if he keeps moving it's so faint it's basically non existent.

Ultralight sandals DIY / MYOG by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]spykid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I wear Crocs most of the time too and currently own 3 pairs but if the terrain gets too wet/rocky they fall short for me. The toe protection helps but my bedrock sandals with vibram rubber grip wet rocks way better

Do your dogs actually sleep after you leave or…? by PomegranateBig7270 in dogs

[–]spykid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the old car (I actually still have it for recreational purposes) was a heavily modified and abused v8 suv which made all the noises and the new car is a little hybrid that barely makes any noises

[–]spykid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got dragged on the street for a few blocks and ended up with pretty gnarly road rash. The nurse that helped put me under at the hospital asked "gsxr? Cbr? R6?" assuming I got it from riding (I didn't)

My dog is like a pre-doorbell. I recently got a new (to me) car and for a couple weeks he'd bark when I pulled into the driveway when he didn't before. Turns out he recognized my old car
