That One Guy

Jeez this forum is almost 20

Wow apparently I can just rattle off the Force Ten lyrics by heart

You just got me thinking, Force Ten would probably be stellar with Counterparts production and style. Just a wee bit too poppy. I like the R30 version I like Presto a lot but it’s for irrational reasons

Camera Eye is all about 1:28 - 2:15 and when that part repeats for me. 17 year old me's world was lit on fire hearing that shit live in 2010. And again the next year. Best believe I had that shit on Rock Band so I could LARP expert drummer Rush is easy enough to guitar, so you can just LARP guitarist with a guitar

I'm comfortable in my sexuality, and that means I'll profess that I really like U2 Not gonna see $300 nosebleed concerts though

"oh shit I was actually married in this room we're eating in 50 years ago lmao"

Power Windows does not hit harder after Ged's book

Red Sector A hits way harder after Ged's book

Power Windows is solid. I used to really really like it, considering it their peak 80's. Now I just like it, and consider it "solid 80's". Hard to top P/G man

three year old TOST thread??

I should get back into the Rush '78-'84 god-tier run

gold.

I'm amazed that uppity lady is still alive treating her ailing body like shit like that. f**k her. f**k people telling you you can't make reasonable accommodations. You're not some vulnerable home depot parking lot day laborer. Last time I checked, the retail/food labor market is an employee's market, not employers', I don't think she's in a position to expect perfection for pay in the teens, at all. Cue "NoBoDy WaNtS tO wOrK aNyMoRe" nonsense

Normalize considering deaths caused by aggressive or extremely negligent driving murder. Murder. It's murder. Get used to the word. Just watched a rough clip of some guy going like 80mph through a red light and striking and instantly killing a mother and daughter in a crosswalk. Released on $20,000 bail pending trial. What's he gonna get if he doesn't flee? Five whole years? Shit's f***ed The US's absolute third world standard of driving and legal system application of driving penalties pisses me off as much as abortion pisses off LABT

Meanwhile, the Sims 1 build mode music f***in' slays. They didn't have to go this hard for us, but they did.

first class on a train lol. $12!

Gotta show that displacement loud and proud while not mentioning the horsepower, don't want to realize you're making power levels typical of a 80's Honda 2.0L C'mon man, let those Malaise era cars be put out to pasture rather than getting others in on it

Years of wasting my time nerding about cars. It is not efficient or useful knowledge to have. I just like cars. I keep up on car news, even on many boring generic vehicles. I've found EVs very interesting, and my girlfriend works in the EV space as well, so we talk about it a lot. I do that too. New countertop appliance? Definitely researching. Tires? Oh man, that's two weeks of research beforehand.

what part of Nevada are you in anyway?

Because I don’t idolize moving to Eureka, Nevada? Most people agree that the coast rocks. Some people arbitrarily disqualify the California coast because of memes, but that’s ok. I like Oregon a lot but I think it’s a little too north for me to love long term. Even though I’ve never really been to Arizona or New Mexico, I would probably like it in plenty of their areas. Or Colorado, that state is so goddamned great.

Just last week, my realtor told me they’re expecting a third child and wanted advice on what to go check out. Won’t consider minivans. They had been looking at $70k Sequoias. They already have a 2023 4Runner as the second car (which I helped them buy lol). I told them to save $25k and check out the Honda Pilot, or the other Jap 3-row SUVs if they end up not liking that. Pointlessly buying truck-based SUVs is incredibly expensive.

I take it as a personal insult and get my feelings hurt when someone knows I have mass car wisdom and doesn’t solicit me for buying advice

Yes, a Model Y with full tax credit is a stellar deal for what you get. And being on the Tesla charger network is the easiest way to quell any irrational charging fears you may or may not have. If that one vehicle ends up now unavailable, you could consider placing an order. They come relatively quick. EVs are a reliability improvement compared to modern hyper complex ICE hybrids. The only hybrids I would consider reliable enough for my standards are those made by Toyota or Honda. Enjoy drivin for like $0.03/mile if you get that Tesla. Drive it 150k miles and it should still be worth like half what you paid for it.

“Landlords take all the risk” Landlord: any chance you’ll be willing to pay rent a little early this month? I need it to make the mortgage on time.
