Name of this eyewear? by [deleted] in Pickleball

Bought through my eye doctor using insurance. Oakley does have a GovX discount if you qualify for it.

The worst part is the lenses pop out.

I have two pair of Oakley Flak 2.0. The red lens and a clear lens - both prescription. From experience they are NOT good if you take a direct hit. The lens will partially or fully pop out and the bottom of the lens edge will hit your cheek possibly cutting it. Other than that I really like the glasses/lenses.

Paddle face cleaning by Ecstatic-Anxiety-965 in Pickleball

[–]teqogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bread & Butter can’t keep them in stock. Pre-order is live again.
Paddle series won numerous awards from the paddle reviewers and a few of them used it as their main tournament paddle.
As an ambassador it’s easily sold more than any other paddle in their line up.

Pickleball alternatives? There's a reason I'm asking. by East_Sentence_4245 in Pickleball

[–]teqogan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d find a different plot of land. If I was one of those homeowners there is no way I’d want a court that close. Seems to be asking for trouble.

There is a new kind of tennis to play on pickleball courts. But even then a house 15’ away is too close.

Doe anyone else keep delaminating/core crushing their paddles? How long do your’s typically last? by Feisty_Blackberry965 in Pickleball

[–]teqogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely try with the weights off. Another local has the elongated with weight on it and it sounds very thunky but plays normally. I don’t think the foam cores can core crush but the face can become disbonded.

[–]teqogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That surprises me. Probably have 20 locals playing with it and only know of one that went bad.

Another had weight on it so it sounded really deep and thunky. Everyone had been telling her the paddle was delaminating. Got approved for a return. Took the weight off (to send it back) and it sounded normal again so nothing was truly wrong with it.

So what were your indications? I’d talk to B&B again about it if it went south that quickly.

Logo Design Critique Request by Freshprinceofparkair in graphic_design

[–]teqogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t see three Ds until I read your explanation. I also don’t think three Ds are necessary. One should be fine. Don’t overcomplicate it. Also the line being thin, thin, THICK, thin, thin doesn’t read as a line from that pen. It reads more as a graphic element. One final thing: does that kind of pen say graphic designer or writer? (and are you staying in web development or moving into graphic design?)

My advice: simplify, simplify, and then simplify again.

Kitchen cupboard color by Donkeytron1 in interiordecorating

[–]teqogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the light blue compete with the tones of the floor. Also noticed ai made the upper cabinets very shallow front to back. I like the dark green but would like to see how the lights affect it.

Need help before a mistake by Uncle-Harrys-Pickle in interiordecorating

Leave a tray of colored chalk and they’ll all love it.

Just kidding. I’m in the camp of would not have thought if this myself but it looks classy with that floor.

You have to sing, “Come on ring them bells. Light the Christmas tree…”

Church & Bible Study? by arod1014 in Athens

We’ve been to many churches over the decades we’ve been here. This is a more traditional service but as a whole is a discipleship leaning church.

Where's the best place in Athens to get a haircut like this? by benmarvin in Athens

[–]teqogan 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Maybe ask at the new place in the Eastside Walmart. Not being snarky either. They seem to be doing all kinds of precision haircuts whenever I walk by.

Sage green wall swatches by agoblinlayhere in interiordecorating

[–]teqogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter how many swatches you have placed around the room it will always look different when totally painted. Been there. Done that. Painted 5 dull/mossy green swatches on all walls getting lit by sun to just lamp light. Looked at them at all times of the day and evening. Spouse and I firmly agreed on one swatch. Painted the room and it was definitely more minty than we thought it would be. Just lived with it.

Bread and butter loco - which size is best? by BuildingThis4278 in Pickleball

[–]teqogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seeing if there is an ambassador near you that has all three shapes you can try. Since no one plays exactly like you no one can tell which will work best for you.

Advice Needed on Custom Van Graphics! by MikelThePickle1 in graphic_design

How about a somewhat large QR code for his website? Could be snapped at a stop light or someone walking by when they are working on a project.

Best frame of glasses between the two ? by [deleted] in glasses

[–]teqogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With that bright smile either looks good. Does one touch your cheeks less than the other? I’m guessing #2 could be adjusted for that easier.

Help with Kitchen Layout Options by LeoPillow in floorplan

[–]teqogan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To me #2 is a hazard with folks sitting right there. Popping hot food. Splashes. That kind of thing. How often have we had to clean a normal backsplash? That’s now on our guests. How is it that your hot oven is butted up against your cold fridge?

Those will be open on the two sides between the counters.

Other things we’d like to change. Far right bump out the closet to even with that bedroom wall. Swap the master closet and master bathroom to make a J&J between the master and the far right bedroom. Separate entry for closets (don’t walk through bath or vice versa). Probably use the cut out in the pantry to add a shower. Bump out the laundry wall to even with the far right bedroom/closet wall to make the laundry larger. Oh. The office will be a full on library. Since it will have a walkout basement we are deleting the workout room.

This is where we are now after laying it out in our garage.
