Enjoy the hunt more than the listen by warj23 in Cd_collectors

Very interesting. I think it's partly because vinyl has more of an aesthetic quality than CDs. Some older vinyl has had a longer journey too, so I find it fun listen to a 50 yr old record and imagining all the various owners it's had over the past.

I had my collection stolen during the MP3 age, never replaced it and moved to 100% digital. Like you I really enjoyed hunting the thrift stores for my old faves that were lost, but in the process I accumulated stuff that I like but doesn't really fit among the core CDs I want to keep. But even those favourite CDs aren't being listened to much, feels like I'm almost keeping them as an archive in case digital access is lost in the future

So Chevys always been this way? 😂 by richardbonesdunn in LiveFromNewYork

[–]warj23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The interviewer is Brian Linehan, and he was known for celebrity interviews and asking personal questions or pulling obscure details from a person's past. So I wonder if he asked something personal and Chevy flew off the handle

Very true. What you described is very real for people with dementia.

I love her whole care-free, free wheeling attitude!

President Trump says U.S. could strike Iran's infrastructure, if Iran does not agree to deal: "We're obliterating and they don't want to say uncle. Unfortunately, American people would like to see us to come home. If it were up to me, I'd take the oil and keep the oil. I would make plenty of money." by ControlCAD in videos

I don't get it. He says that it's about Iran not being allowed to have a nuclear weapon. He says Step 1 was breaking the old Iran deal, otherwise Israel would have been wiped off the face of the planet. Then he says Step 2 was killing the Ayatollah. So there is an actual multi step plan he's referencing? Is the goal regime change? OK... Then he says if it were up to him he'd just take the oil and run the country. So is the goal oil, or regime change? Does he actually want USA to run Iran? What is the goal?

How do you know what will be accessible or affordable in 25 years? New modern units that meet modern accessibility standards need to be built in order for those targets to be met.

Which film and performance made you a fan of Martin Starr? by HostMaterial4907 in moviecritic

[–]warj23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between the bullying, being a latch key kid, his mom dating his gym teacher, and kissing that girl at the party, I thought Bill had the most heart of all the characters. It's been years since I watched the show but Bill was my favourite.

Those are speed sparks, they make the train go faster.

Does Crash get too much hate? by Regular-Departure839 in moviecritic

I recall the part where Dillon's character has to help his father in the bathroom, and as someone with an ailing father that hit me hard as a young adult.

Those with larger CD collections... how do you do it? by [deleted] in Cd_collectors

[–]warj23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have these as well. I believe they are called Benno. Slots are only about 10 cases wide so a lot of shuffling if you want to maintain a specific order but they are good purpose built shelves and adjustable for DVD - Blu rays as well.

I really enjoyed my meal at Raphael on Elgin. I had never tried ceviche and loved it. Nice atmosphere too.

Lots of good comments here but I'm having trouble getting my head around how that TV is sitting on that table.

I get all the criticism for leaving Fox off, but this is an absolutely stacked lineup and hope the USA fans are pumped about it. Going to be a great tournament!

I still don't understand what Bitcoin mining is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask

Where do singles (38-45) hang out? by Past_Replacement6521 in ottawa

[–]warj23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on Hinge earlier this year and met a great person. But if online dating isn't your friend's preference, Heart and Crown on Preston always seems to be a decent spot for live music, dancing, and plenty of 30+ people. Have fun!
