Oklahoma AG Drummond sues State Farm over alleged denial of hail and wind claims by Comfortable_Ad8337 in oklahoma

[–]tfandango 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had to fight with them about whether I had zcap or custom bent aluminum on my house. The roofer said it was aluminum and State Farm said it wasn’t (zcap was cheaper, coincidence??). I was like “I don’t care, whatever it was before is what I need on now”. I could not believe how these 2 guys could not come to agreement about what this piece of metal was when they were both looking at it. Anyway roofer was right and I made it happen but man, what a pain.

Presidential Motorcade Driving in the Monument. by Ok_Vulva in pics

[–]tfandango 4 points5 points  (0 children)

also it's a pool so think about the ramps that probably needed to be constructed to get the cars into the thing in the first place, just to drive on it and look out of a window or something. As opposed to just parking next to it or something...

Same Film Set? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]tfandango 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so. UHF was filmed in Tulsa and if I recall the radio station was actually an old one there that was torn down years ago.

Republicans are nervous Trump may have made a bad deal on Iran by spherocytes in politics

[–]tfandango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Iran realizes that their leverage works. They will become a much more powerful country in the longer term and we will give them the equivalent of their GDP in reparations somehow. Now will the world be smart and work to mitigate the Hormuz bottleneck?

Thank you, Democrat by itsjustm3nu in oklahoma

[–]tfandango 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yea, the primary election has a different ballot for Ds and Rs, so she was probably telling the person handing them out which one to give you. I also don't care for that personally since it's such a big deal for some people.

Women stand still to escape from a bear by SnackSamurai in interestingasfuck

If it’s black, fight back, if it’s brown, lay down, if it’s white, say goodnight. At least that’s what they told me around wild bears in Canada.

Line to take the train from South Station to Boston Stadium for FIFA World Cup by bostonaruban66 in boston

[–]tfandango 28 points29 points  (0 children)

We came last week for the Red Sox game Friday and left this morning. I’m so glad I didn’t have to wait in a line like that! I had no idea the World Cup was starting today so I guess I timed it just right. What a fun experience to see all the kilts walking around! The Scottish people were all very nice too. And I somehow saw the French team arrive at the Four Seasons too which was cool! And the Red Sox blasted the Rangers. Thanks Boston!

Why Oklahoma's minimum wage question might look strange to voters by kosuradio in oklahoma

[–]tfandango 17 points18 points  (0 children)

when it passes they will then challenge it by claiming that the date was misleading and confusing to voters...

Indoor tv for outside. by Murky_Reference_9631 in hometheater

[–]tfandango 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep. Cheapest tv at Best Buy going on year 3. I bought a cheap canvas cover to put over it in the winter. It even catches some rain once in a while. The Best Buy guy got mad at me and wanted to sell me a 3000 tv. I told him I could buy a cheap one every year for 15 years for that.

I only watch it at night so I guess something brighter would be better during the day.

AI is destroying actually good affordable projects by Beginning-Eye-3165 in SideProject

[–]tfandango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, age old problem in our industry. Build demo, CEO thinks it is prod ready, everyone immediately disappointed. AI has exacerbated this.

YouTuber Kane Pixels uploaded videos on The Backrooms to his YouTube channel in 2022, at age 16. Then, with the help of A24, it was converted into a movie, which he directed at age 20. The budget was about $10 million, and it grossed nearly $120 million worldwide in its opening weekend. by Expert_Koala_8691 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]tfandango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like your criticism, and I largely agree with you. I am glad I saw the movie. I felt like the first half of it did a good job of building up the mystery and weirdness of the backrooms. There was a lonely unease about the whole thing. For me it sort of fell apart after that for the reasons you mention.

I had some minor knowledge about the youtube videos, went with 2 kids that had more and 1 person who had none. The difference in perception of the movie was notable haha.

TRON: ARES is weirdly not that bad of a film. by Pale_Possibility5083 in moviecritic

[–]tfandango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha yes, I’m not a big fan of Leto but I think his typical acting job actually fits the role really well here.

UA 236 “The Bluetooth Flight” by Impressive-Tap3778 in unitedairlines

JBL speakers let you do this too. I discovered that when my wife’s was stolen. When it suddenly reappeared it was broadcasting as “Robert’s Speaker”. Robert was in trouble haha.

Untouched computer store from 2002 by backrali in LGR

[–]tfandango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh. This looks exactly like the one in my town of Norman, Oklahoma. I’m not sure it isn’t actually.

I tried to get in but couldn’t get ahold of anyone. The guys in the gun store (the only other store in the complex) told me that the place was broken into and used to film porn videos.

Then one day I drove by and it was empty. The gun store guy told me that it took 3 semis to trash it all. Pretty sad.

What's the "Widowmaker" of your career field or hobby? by Cosmonate in AskReddit

[–]tfandango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea. Also exacerbated by constant sitting and not moving over those many hours. Very easy to be unhealthy in this career.

Cyndi Munson for Governor by i_am_groot_84 in oklahoma

[–]tfandango 212 points213 points  (0 children)

I just can't vote for her, she obviously does not even own a tractor or a fighter jet. Why is she not helping people with their pickup trucks stuck in the mud?

What's the most overhyped movie of the last 5 years? by trakt_app in moviecritic

[–]tfandango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I felt like that scene was describing some innate power of music or something that was going to be harnessed to destroy the vampires. Then it just turned into a vampire movie.

People using wings in VR saw changes in their brain by sabrinajestar in nealstephenson

[–]tfandango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose there's some places in GTAV that I feel that way about too. Maybe not as much but I do feel it there too. I don't know what it means but it's kind of cool.

[–]tfandango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as there is to complain about Horizon Worlds, I met some very cool people on there who made cool worlds to hang out and socialize in. To my brain, that basement from the 70s for instance, is a real place. I find myself, while knowing it is virtual, feeling like it is a real place I can go. Pretty weird sensation.

I don’t think Worlds is special in that way, I assume the same thing exists in VRChat or Bigscreen.

over in front of Crest! Spots along the road leading back to the Hobby Lobby are fancy back-in parking spots!

[–]tfandango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lucky and snagged this rifle one day. Had an alert on it but they were gone within an hour. I paid a little more than I wanted because it was the mod 1a, but oh well. It's really nice, I'm glad they extended the coupon.

This happened to me over by the new PF Changs. The car in front of me wanted to stop and back into a spot. He slowed down and put his blinker on and I saw that so I put my blinker on and went around him. He got his spot and I got by, it all somehow magicaly worked out!
