swickles posted:As is Batman Beyond which I am less familiar with, so catching up on it now. There is an episode early on where a sound tech guy tries to make Bruce Wayne think he is going ceazy by hearing voices and at the end he says he knew they were coming from somewhere else because the voices in his head don't call him Bruce and I am still processing that. Batman Beyond is an amazing show, rivalled only by Justice League Unlimited for best American superhero cartoon ever. The capper is the Return of the Joker movie, which, if you watch it, watch the uncut version, which goddamned loving goes some dark places

hifi posted:i know i've said it before but i'm probably just getting tools from harbor freight until the end of time. the chinese figured out steel like 5 years ago and plastic is plastic. i'm not blowing 30 bucks on made in america pliers, especially when that premium probably just goes to line the executives' pockets. This is fine for home tinkerers. When I was working on my tools, I figured out quickly what i could get away with doing Harbor Freight, and what I really actually needed to spend money on. When you're using them for an 8-12 hour shift (or the occasional OT/double), you don't have to time to waste with sockets with slop, ratchets that can't stand torque, wrenches that round off, or anything with poor ergonomics. A home toolbox that's like 90% Harbor Freight is fine for the vast majority of Americans, tho

Bird in a Blender posted:I think I need to give up woodworking as a hobby. Not because I don't like it, but because every time I make a mistake, I have to explain it to my wife, then I have to hear about it from her what I should have done. Then she goes online and looks at the same thing online and asks why I didn't make it like that. I'm just sick of having every little thing critiqued, especially when I already know I screwed it up. My grandfather was a master carpenter and cabinetmaker, as a hobby (petroleum engineer by trade). He said literally the only difference that comes with skill and experience is the ability to better hide your mistakes. I turn wood, and I haven't made a flawless piece yet. Tell your wife to ease the gently caress off.

I missed theme park chat, but we have a supervisor who's a pretty good guy, and his only weirdness is taking him and the kids to Disney about five-six times a year. He asked me when the last time I went was, and I told him me and the folks went to Disney and Universal Studios once. The big attraction at Universal Studios at the time? Battlestar Galactica. No, not that one. The other one.

Woman killed was identified as a MAGA woman from San Diego, 14 year USAF veteran. Apparently she was killed on video (NYPost has pics of her right after the shooting, not recommended viewing). Killed while trying to storm a barricade inside the Capitol that the police had set up. Thoughts and prayers

He used to joke that his stateroom had a placard that said CO NEXT DOOR ->. The bomb that almost killed Rogers' wife went off right in the middle of the intersection in front of the mall I hung out at (University Towne Centre). They got super serious about running off loitering teens for several months, as if we were Iranian bombers. And in case you didn't know, your joke actually happened. Rogers got the Legion of Merit after he was relieved of command for his time running the Vincennes. edit- aw jesus, I missed the dog pictures. RIP Blue.

saintonan posted:I don't want to marry her, I want to clone her. Thirty or so more of her sprinkled across the country would do a world of good. My dad badmouthed her once, and I got to him by asking him if he really didn't like her or if he was just told by someone that he didn't like her. To his credit, he admitted he didn't know poo poo about her beyond the (anti-) memes. So I make it a point to subtly talk her up everytime we talk current events. It worked on him when it came to Tammy Duckworth.

Trampolines are also a wind hazard. We had two hurricanes hit Mobile this year, and after each one I saw a half-dozen crumpled up trampolines that had taken flight and landed in someone else's yard or on their car. Our neighbor had one and I told him the best thing he could possibly do for his home insurance is take a knife and split that bastard down the middle. Neighborhood kids would come and jump on it all hours of the day (unfenced yard), and he was lucky he never got sued.

I can see why; for every actual adult workplace using them for their intended purpose, there’s a collection of mouth breathers that don’t want one of those working here
