This Halloween I invested in a good pair of Dickies coveralls (dark blue) and a decent Michael Myers mask. Simple yet very effective, I walked (slowly and creepily) the neighborhood with my son and his friends and the attention I got was crazy. I would also stand at the end of the driveways and stare into each house, staying true to the character. Also noticed dogs did not like it at all lol.

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:But but it's only 10 megapixels....! It's not the amount of pixels, it's the quality. Your average cameraphone has a shitton of megapixels these days. That means nothing when 10 year old DSLR can use L-Glass. A good lens makes an average camera good, a good camera amazing. I got a Fuji X100 and I love it. Feels like my old Leica film rangefinders, it's super quiet, small, great for street style stuff which I like. After shooting digital for so long I really don't like taking shitloads of images anymore because it means more time editing and I hate editing. When I did sports it was crazy, I spent more time on the computer than behind the camera. No desire to do that kind of stuff anymore, now i'm happy with the occasional landscape stuff and kid/cat portraits

Keep them out of your room and let them destroy poo poo who cares, getting sleep is more important. rear end in a top hat cats are the worst, it's why i haven't had a cat in years.

Not getting enough sleep will drive you more insane than you already are. Locking the cats in the bathroom with a litter box while you sleep sounds like a good idea. If they can't behave then oh well, small price to pay for your sanity.

I was way better in person with the rays of light coming from behind that mushroom shaped cloud So this skunk person you know lives in Clearwater? Not far from me at all. Just curious, the pros of skunks look pretty obvious (super cute and playful) but what are the cons

Fermented Tinal posted:I'm eating this on my lunch right now. I recently discovered Badia Habanero hot sauce, it's awesome and you can get it just about anywhere. Also if you've never heard of Matouk's Calypso Sauce it's amazing. It's a unique thick, almost salsa style hot sauce made with scotch bonnet peppers, is produced in the Caribbean (comes from Trinidad or Tobago I think) and is popular here in Florida. https://www.hotsauce.com/matouks-hot-calypso-hot-sauce/ If you're a hot sauce enthusiast you will not regret ordering it.

BraveUlysses posted:So you don't vote at all? You seemingly lack the ability to differentiate bad candidates from good because they're politicians but not all things we vote on are politicians running for office... So you'd be fine with me voting for Trump I suppose. Funny how that works, I'm an idiot for not voting, but if I voted for a candidate YOU don't like I'm even worse lol. Go ahead and think what you want I really don't care, I was just defending people like myself that chose not to vote this time Also I'm going to teach my son to do whatever he feels like doing and I'm not going to hold it against him either way Applebees Appetizer fucked around with this message at 13:41 on Nov 8, 2018 |

meatpimp posted:I don't care how you vote, I think you should vote, though. It's a civic responsibility, even though it may seem unnecessary or without merit. As another election comes and goes and the results are the opposite of what the majority of the actual voters voted, it will put more pressure on "the system" to encourage reform. I can appreciate that. What I don't appreciate is the hypocrites demanding me to vote and then criticizing me for voting left or right, calling me a Nazi or a special snowflake and how dare I vote for Dems/Rep. Lol I can't win.

However, intolerant folk will immediately jump down my throat about doing so and it's become a "Do I really care about this enough to spend the time to fight with someone about it" question. Agreed.

Fo3 posted:I had a few e5 engined 323s as run arounds, but never a b6 or bp. I used the be a mazda boy, rotaries for fun on the weekends, a 323 (or a spare 808) for a daily. I also did have a few falcons for whenever I just wanted to pick up stumps and drive cross country for funs, but a pre 1997 falcon is a very boring thing not worth paying the petrol costs on for a daily so those falcons always got flipped when I was done with them. Yeah, almost all the Escorts were Mazda BG chassis through the 90's and the GTs got the BP so they were lots of fun. We had 323s as well but no BP option unfortunately, the four door BG chassis (Protege) got the BP instead. Even the early Kia Sephia was a BG chassis with a Korean built BP, I had one and it was fun until the interior started disintegrating. I was a huge 323/BG nerd but the cars just aren't around anymore, they were disposable cars pretty much, not many people took interest in them so they are mostly gone now. SGT Fox's 323 is amazing, if anyone hasn't checked out his thread yet you need to.

BraveUlysses posted:this stuff is pretty neat but its even better that right wing conspiracy nutters have latched onto the idea this is being done by lasers from space Wat. They didn't start the fire from space, but melted cars from space? From what I've been reading investigations into these fires have been leading to electrical companies more times than not and they have been footing the bill. Now electric companies are apparently shutting down power in high risk areas and people are pissed they have no power, but then their house burns down in a fire cause by electricity if not. It's a no win situation.

Olympic Mathlete posted:TV ideally should be mounted so when you’re sat down your eyelevel is mid-screen or just a tad higher (same plane as speakers which are ear level ideally) But people don’t tend to mount them above fireplaces if there’s any other choice so whatever. Yeah I don't get that, I've noticed lots of people mounting their TVs so far up the wall you get a kink in your neck watching it. A buddy of mine has his hanging like a foot from the ceiling angled down which is horrible imo, but he says he likes it like that TV at eye level, speakers at ear level besides the sub obviously. I just installed a Bose Cinemate and it's amazing how good it sounds for a simple 2.1 system hooked up to the TV.

BraveUlysses posted:^Laminate flooring can be a mixed bag in wet areas like bathrooms. Yes it's cheaper than tile but any amount of standing water left on laminate flooring can seep into the seams and cause immediate damage A lot of the new vinyl flooring is water proof these days so it shouldn't be an issue, but if it isn't officially labeled as water proof I wouldn't risk it. Rhyno you're lucky you have a clean empty space to work with, we are getting ready to do the same thing and I'm not looking forward to moving a shitload of furniture (and a fish tank) around to accomplish the job.
