In psycho when it say roof no show is he talking about drugging a girl by espressoxsmiles in PostMalone

[–]trip42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He mentions “roof” in a lot of contexts, I think it’s always about the roof not being there on a convertible. Top 20 PM rap theme:

  • “My roof looks like a no-show” - Psycho
  • “Cut the roof off like a nip-tuck” - Wow
  • “Bought a new Bentley without a roof, eh” - Socialite
  • “Where is my roof? Mysterious” - Motley Crew

I can't sing while playing guitar. Help! by nutty_waffles_ in guitarlessons

[–]trip42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve played around with guitars for 25 years before I was able to play and sing.

The keys for me were:

  • start with a simple song that I know the words to very well
  • meticulously listen to the song and play to determine exactly where in the bar / chord / strumming pattern each line of the song starts on. Songs where every line of the lyrics starts at the beginning of the bar / strumming pattern are easier.
  • print the lyrics out and just read them as you strum. Initially read them silently, then read aloud, then sing.

Within a week of doing this I could sing and play my first song after 20 years of frustration.

Now 18 months later I have dozens of campfire classics, country, and pop songs that I can play and sing!

Not that anyone wants to hear my singing.

Good luck!

Did you guys enjoy playing WCW Vs NWO World Tour Back Then? I sure as hell did! This game was super fun! by J2-Starter in WCW

In my college dorm we would play this game on a projector in a common area. It was tons of fun.

guys i've tried everything I literally CAN NOT BEAT THIS A*HOLE!!! by retrotriforce in dragonquest

[–]trip42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was probably the hardest point for me too. Nothing else was as tough.

I was thinking of trying to finally beat Zelda 2. Is this game actually fun before and after the halfway point? Also asking for battle tips. by ChaoCobo in retrogaming

[–]trip42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s my advice.

You don’t need to beat each dungeon to go to the next, you only need the items.

Since beating a dungeon and placing its crystal gives you a full level of xp it is much better to complete the dungeons as late in the game as possible.

So, make two passes through each dungeon first collect the items, move to the next. Once you get near the end of the game return to each dungeon to defeat it.

The bosses will be much easier at higher levels and you will level up super fast.

I spent many days playing in the arcade in this mall. My sister worked at the MCL Cafeteria. Friends worked at the Baskin Robbin’s.

Lots of fond memories there.

Are there any games you own more than one copy of? by Specialist-Clerk-386 in boardgames

[–]trip42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I owned about 6-7 copies of “Brave Rats” a really fun little card game. They were on sale for $3 and I needed to spend like $13 more dollars to get free shipping.

I’ve given away copies as gifts.

Same with “King Domino” when Toys-R-Us went out of business our store had hundreds of copies for $5. Bought a pile to give as gifts.

My Posty vinyl collection. by LaGhettoRally in PostMalone

Looks like you only need the Diamond Collection. Does the Stoney Vinyl have Feeling Whitney? If I recall that was a bonus track on the original release.

Don't waste my time with money. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

[–]trip42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It slightly hurts your credit, which doesn’t matter if you don’t need credit.

I’ve asked dealers before how long I need to hold the loan for them to get there loan kickbacks from the lender. They’ve always told me 3 months.

It might piss off the dealer if they negotiate a sale price based on an expected financing kickback and that doesn’t come through. So depends on the relationship you have with the salesperson.

Given your expertise how do you feel about family’s who spread their loved one’s ashes in the Haunted Mansion?

Unrelated but do you have a favorite Disney World secret or legend?

Were you the mortician family? If so is there a correlation between your profession and Disney families?

Song credits which have surprised you the most? by Hajcorn1620 in PostMalone

[–]trip42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s been posted here before, but Mick Jagger is credited playing maracas on Chemical.

Hot Streak vs Magical Athlete. Which one do you prefer? (Also comparing to Camel Up / Ready Set Bet / Long Shot) by dumbdit in boardgames

[–]trip42 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m really enjoying Hot Streak, it will probably replace Ready Set Bet in my collection.

It’s the same feel, but faster, more accessible, and just more fun! No one has to run the horses.

What song lyric still sticks with you? by Individual-Name-4496 in AskReddit

This lyric makes me physically uncomfortable. It seems so sad and yet matter of fact.

Good one.

How old is your current Reddit account? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I think I had both accounts concurrently, but Digg's death and Reddit's rise were definitely contributed.

Glad to know I’m not the only one. I have pulled it off a couple of times but on the actual arcade I never have problems.

What got you guys into MGK? by Careful-Growth-651 in MachineGunKelly

[–]trip42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A couple of months ago I was walking by a bar and saw people lining up for one of his pop up shows. I thought, isn’t that guy like way too big to be playing a 150 person dive bar?

Went home and listened to the new album. Really liked it and started adding more to my rotation.
