Can't be any worse than washing a crate of Keystone Ice down with a handle of Bourbon surely?  

If I drank that much I think I'd remember it.

I got my 7th booster shot yesterday. They don't really check here, so I've been getting one regularly. Better safe than sorry.

Christ I hope you're joking.

I don't know how common they are or the reasons generally stated are. I'm against them on principle and think they should be very, very rare.

They should be very, very, rare. Key point to them being rare, is they still have to be legal.

Abortion should not be treated as contraception; if for no other reason, that's bad for the woman's health. Late term abortion shouldn't be allowed. And the extreme protester types who say things like "lol let's go kill some babies tehe" etc are fucking morons because that's horrible, inflammatory and counterintuitive.

Is anyone out there using late term abortion as contraception?

"Oh here lemme just carry this thing 7 months and say 'nah fuck this I'm out.'"

It was my first viewing, really enjoyed it. Fun action movie but also has a lot of heart and is delivered in quite a refreshingly unpretentious way. Shocked it's a Michael Bay film tbh. Solid cast with nice chemistry too.

There's a video on YouTube that goes waaaay in depth about how it's actually the last Connery Bond movie. Convinced me.

Holy balls. That's a sweet looking axe.

There are reports that there will be a mass exodus of people leaving Twitter once Musk takes over.

We’ll see.

I think he’s fucked. Everyone loves the concept of no guard rails and zero limits on expression until weirdos show up at your kid’s funeral to protest gay marriage.  I’ve learned first hand that it’s a fantasy to believe that everyone wants to or should talk to everyone.  Eventually people will find their little corners to talk to one another. Similar to this forum, the idea that there should be one place for everyone is a fantasy. It doesn’t work in practice.  Reddit learned the same lesson.  We’re moving to an increasingly demarcated world.  The idea that there will be one platform for everyone is a very 1990s/2000s idea.  It turns out most people don’t want to put up with assholes who have no interest in genuine conversation. So the assholes will have their playground and everyone else will have theirs. 

So...separate but equal?

7 drinks deep 11:30pm and I have to meet my parents in 12 hours. This should be fun. 

I once had a coke bender and at least 20 beers, crashed for an hour or so, and went to a hockey game with my mom and her husband. On cowbell night. We went to a bar to pregame beforehand. That was a fun one to try and maintain through. Never touched that shit again after that comedown.

I'm trying to find any info on the electric guitar Slash played for UTLH and You're Crazy, but I'm not really finding anything. It's obviously a single coil guitar. I tried to emulate that with my Les Paul on single coil mode effect on the Katana amp, but it didn't have the same clean punch. 

Probably a soundhole pickup for an acoustic. Check out Cobain's in the unplugged. Or off the top of my head, Realign by Godsmack acoustic. They have that twangy kind of sound.

Super deadly or super contagious? I am aware it kills people, just a relatively low percentage.

I'm sick of you spreading bullshit.

He used crack

You know what Marshall series I feel bad for? The MG series. Of all the solid state amps out there, I could never understand why this particular series became the most hated of all. With some proper EQ and a decent player, they rip.

These days you'd be better off with a Katana for the same price, but still.

They're hated because they replaced the beloved Valvestate line with them, a clearly inferior amp.

How much is 2 ounces that side of the pond? Best here is $100-$120 per ounce. 

I've seen it on sale for 60 an ounce at the stores. Dealers go as low as 30.

Buy used.

You aren't getting Addams Family or Twilight Zone for under 5 grand, but unless the market has exploded since I bought mine, you can find deals.

For 750 bucks just buy a fucking pinball machine.

The middle one? That's my newest one. It's a 2014 Teye Coyote. Teye worked with and was inspired by Zemaitis but has his own company with his own designs. This one is made in Austin, Texas. Now his highest end ones are made by him in Spain and the production models are made in Nashville

I'm intrigued.

That is a fascinating take.  I lose my right to cheer for the frontline workers that saved my fathers life because I crossed a nylon rope in a grocery store and never came within 10 feet of a store clerk?

Honestly, I have read a lot of your posts over the years, and I'm flat out calling bullshit if you are going to try and tell me that if your 80 year old father was rushed to the ER, in the hospital for a week, with fucking tubes in him (you unable to visit him because hospitals don't allow visitors right now for obvious reasons) finally gets home, not because he is WELL, but because he is well enough to not need constant care and he can't eat solid food and he tells you he wants apple sauce, that YOU would tell him "Tough tit, pop. There was a worker who wanted a 13 foot distance and in order for me to get the apple sauce, I would to have been within 10 feet of her, so it was a no go."  "Please, I'm hungry son!" "There was a rope pop, couldn't do it."    You, Captain kindness and respecting everyone's feelings...? You're going to shit on your dad because someone wants 13 feet instead of 6, because they think masks are "hot?" Whatever man.

You can't find another store that sells applesauce that isn't stocking that aisle? Tough tits for YOU, go somewhere else. Ducking a barricade is exactly what makes either store workers snap, or other people follow suit. I still call dickhead here. Sorry.

What is applesauce exactly? Would that not just be concentrated or mashed-up apples? Surely that is easy to make by peeling and dicing up a load of apples and heating them on a low heat? Maybe add a pinch of cinnamon and sugar? Blitz if you want it finer. I am making a recipe off the cuff here, but something along those lines...

Look at Mr Applesauce chef over here.

Still a dick move. Ones need for applesauce does not excuse crossing a roped off area.
