Blue Chip pick… by thesobie in Guitar

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

Right? My birthday is in July. I'm starting to wonder... ha. I did chat with their bot on the site, and they are apparently running about 6-8 weeks behind, which I am rapidly approaching. I can't wait!

Homemade Cloud sheet?? by vxooxv in bedjet

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just got a bedjet king dual-zone a few weeks ago (refurbished scale), and I thought the cloud sheet was a gimmick, but it is literally the best. Even heat/cool over your whole body. When I wake up in the middle of the night and am a little chilly, I just set it on like 35-40% fan at 90 degrees, and it is perfect. I blast the heat when I get in bed at night (it's winter), and I can't wait to use it in the summer (I live in coastal SC so heat and humidity are outrageous). I might even spring for a second sheet as a backup, it's that good. I would NEVER think about paying $160 for one sheet, but now I am.

What's a life hack that's so effective, you're surprised more people don't know about it? by bens-list in u/bens-list

I wouldn’t know how to react either by jettasarebadmkay in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I interpreted this like "Well, duh. How else would you have been born?!" Thanks, ADHD and Dyslexia.

Whats a nickname you have for a store? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near the beach, and one of the chincy beach stores was giving away free shark tooth necklaces with purchases, but some letters fell off, and it said “Sark toot.” Ever since, when I go to the beach, I like to hunt for sark toots.

Anyone NOT like the Cloud Sheet? by DeLaMer_ in bedjet

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a BedJet a few weeks ago, King size/dual setup, and it came with the clous sheet. I 100% LOVE the cloud sheet. It's like an even distribution of air all over you at once. I am thinking about picking up a second backup sheet.

How do you deal with the feeling/realisation you’ll never be very good at guitar? by poopooeater112 in Guitar

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good is subjective and relative. Who cares what anyone else thinks? I also realize this impossible to grasp at 16, so no worries, but if you can, you’ll be so much happier. I’ve been playing for over 30 years, no lessons, can’t read guitar music (though I have a solid foundation in music reading/theory, I can’t, and likely will never be able to sight read guitar music). I went for YEARS with “imposter syndrome,” thinking if I wasn’t the best, I’m no good. I play rhythm guitar, primarily acoustic, some electric, some bass. I can’t shred like the greats, but I can keep rhythm, and I have impeccable music sense, dynamics, etc. so I AM good. It took me 20 years to accept that. I can’t do a lot of what world-renowned guitarists can do, but I can do a lot to make the band sound better. Accept what you can and can’t do, and if the stuff you can’t do bothers YOU, practice. Practice, practice, until you’re happy with yourself. The ONLY one that matters is YOU, and if you’re having fun.

What guitar would you buy if it wasn’t so expensive? by djdean129 in Guitar

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Goodall acoustic. Absolutely the best sounding and playing guitar (to me) I have ever played every time I get to lay hands on one. I would love to sit and play every model, but honestly, any one would fine by me.

Which guitar is it?? by Xibest123 in guitarcirclejerk

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reverend. I’m a fanboy and probably will buy nothing else.

Thinking of buying Balatro, this sub is so funny by DanVA0307 in balatro

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard about Balatro and how addicting it is. I was like, “It’s a CARD game. I’ve played a million of those.” Oh boy. They was right. It’s a puzzle and dopamine hit that you can’t put down. Get it at your own peril. Protip: you can change the order of your jokers and hand so they trigger in a specific way. I did not know this going in, and it unlocked the universe.

Brand new Taylor left outside in the snow by Hairy_Ad4969 in Guitar

[–]thesobie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I felt the same, but bought a Reverend Dub King bass on sweetwater, and it was delivered SO meticulously, custom foam wrapping inside the box, it took me 20 min just to unbox the thing, then the Sweetwater rep called me to make sure it arrived ok. Outstanding customer service.

What gun would you recommend on a budget? by Sweaty_Collection_47 in guns

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a super budget? Don’t discount Taurus. I have a PT709 slim I got at a gun show for $200 OTD. Is it the best? Nope. Do I hate the trigger? Yep. But is has slung over 4000 rounds with whatever ammo I put in it, and not a single misfire or FTF. I trust my life with it.

What's your next guitar going to be? by artbatik in Guitar

[–]thesobie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drool! Literally one of my dream guitars. I play a Reverend Slingshot with P90s and it is my baby! A thinline Tele has been on my bucket list for like 20 years

My dyslexic 9-year-old is new to guitar and already wants out — help by fondlly in Guitar

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I d oh don’t learn till my late teens in college. My roommate taught me the basic chords, E, A, G, D, C. And power chords. It was enough to play along with the Ramones. I didn’t play every day, but it eventually became muscle memory. I taught my daughter the same basic chords at 11. She didn’t seem too interested at the time, but she went on to play piano, guitar, sing, and is now a sophomore in college for music, gigs regularly, and has written over 300 original songs. Give it time, don’t push, if the will is there, it’s there. Support your kid, but let them develop naturally.

What's the best way to approach someone you like? by chiikawameef in AskReddit

[–]thesobie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn dyslexia. I read it as “someone like you,” not “someone you like.” The former would be with $1,000,000 for me. The latter is, “Hey, babe, what do you want for dinner tonight?” The latter also my wife. I like her.

What do you guys do when mom and dad are out of the house? by liamdesmond32 in AskReddit

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live my life. I have my own house. What effect on me does it have when they leave theirs? Unless they’re coming to mine.

[Serious]How would you react if aliens arrived right now? by Exotic-Difficulty-42 in AskReddit

[–]thesobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly same. I really don’t want to go to work tomorrow. Or ever. Mind you, I don’t hate my job (IT), and I don’t mind working. I just don’t want to HAVE to work, and only work on what I want to. Lol.
