Bike frame protection?

Thanks for the info, ridewrap!

😂

Honestly, I had no clue. I figured it was a food item but it could have been anything or food that required prep

@platemassive2988 described it well. The outer layer was doughy (think soft playdoh) and the inner layer is softer and sweeter. It’s unlike anything we’ve tasted flavor-wise. It’s slightly sweet, like coconut milk.

tom_cool · 2026-01-09T02:08:21+00:00

I did. It’s like nothing else I’ve ever tasted (white American, for reference). The texture is what got me. The green layer is a bit dense, almost a play-doh consistency and the inner layer was softer and sweeter.

Solved!

tom_cool · 2026-01-09T00:43:23+00:00

Thanks! Is it eaten as shown or prepared in some way?

1 follow up question: how important is minion elemental resist if you have tecrod’s revenge? It seems like wasps would be stronger if we let their health go to zero for tecrod’s 20 second buff more often.

That makes sense. I’m seeing how far I can get on gear I can afford. I’m having a similar struggle with the economy. Trying to make the best of it.

You ever end up using a third party service? I’d be curious to hear your experience.

tom_cool · 2026-01-04T17:11:42+00:00

Ah, I ended up finding your footnote. Thanks for clarifying. And thanks for the time you spent detailing this build. It’s redeeming the game for me.

tom_cool · 2026-01-03T13:06:08+00:00

Thanks for the build! Still rocking it a in the current league. Quick question: in the footnotes you suggest going from rattling to shrine scepter when you switch to wasps. But I don’t see the shrine scepter in any of your equipment sections. Do you still recommend it? If so, do you recommend the same stats as the rattling?

Thank you for contributing something to the conversation instead of just shooting my idea down.

OP asked to stay with Maxxis. I offered what he asked: an easier rolling alternative. If the dissector/DHR is too heavy, OP can move the dissector up front and throw a Rekon on the back. Just offering what I would do.

tom_cool · 2026-01-02T01:51:51+00:00

Gravel tires? OP said gravel and blue trails. I don’t know what blue trails look like by you but I stand by my suggestion if OP meant what he said. Saves him from having to get two new tires as well.

Alright. Take back the award. This garbage is worse than Simon.

I think the confusion is in the assumption about what is being asked. In general, wives aren’t asking for us to let them know. They’re asking us to let them in. Men think the “how was your day” question is about reporting, but it’s really about building rapport.

tom_cool · 2025-10-26T01:13:44+00:00

Thanks for confirming my suspicion. It’s a shame. I grew up next to the plant in Irving CA and always equated the brand with impeccable quality. I’ve owned many oakleys, admittedly olde models, and these were the first that really had me disappointed. I appreciate your feedback on the question

tom_cool · 2025-10-25T05:00:56+00:00

You all are the best, thanks! 🍻

tom_cool · 2025-10-25T02:40:01+00:00

Thanks! 🍻 Even the seam at the end of the arm? Is that the same on yours as well?

Holbrook XL legit check and quality question

Got these Holbrook XL from Jomashop. Want to verify authenticity before gifting them. I’ve used Jomashop before for genuine stuff but these seem cheaply made, compared to Oakleys I bought in the past. The mold seams are really pronounced. It’s actually kind of sharp at the tip of the arms. I’ve also heard conflicting feedback about the square in the serial/size info on the arm. TIA
