OT: General OT Thread #42: The Answer to the Ultimate Question

[Carolinas Identity*]

I won't be happy until Lapa GDTs his first Taco Bell experience. We demand satisfaction.

Let's start a GoFundMe to FedEx him a triple double crunch-wrap supreme and some fully loaded Mexi Fries

I have like eight stripper ones in my wallet from the last time I was in Montana. That should cover a big chunk of it.

Ballpark estimate of the entire Taco Bell menu is roughly $361.96.

Make him eat the whole thing.

I'll chip in half, Lapa.

AND buy you a beer after you finish it all.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Anyone who could eat all that in one sitting, truly is a god amongst men

I decided to quit alcohol, coffee and sodas for one month starting today.

Wish me luck.

You fool, should've picked February.

And non-playoff season.

On the other hand, the alcohol -part isn't that difficult. Nor sodas. But replacing coffee with tea is... well, it's a little harder. I need the smell of coffee in the morning. And the taste. And it helps to set up the day.

Well, anyway, lycka till.

I quit smoking, now I want to quit coffee as it reminds me of the smoking and it also tastes different.
Tea comes in many great flavours that help the transition from coffee.
Alcohol I use only a few times a year so that is not an issue with smoking.

Yeah, I used to open my mornings with a smoke and a coffee. Switched to e-cigs 3 years ago, probably the best decision I've made in my life. Not that there are many good ones to choose from

Anyway, good luck. If you ever have a hard time, just remember that it will taste like crap.

Havent had hard times, I quit by smoking less every week and then stopped during a vacation.
Sugar I want out mostly, it is a real killer.
But in the end, genetics is the biggest reason behind all conditions, testing the genes you have does not cost too much but might be mentally challenging.
Biggest thing one can do is to keep a healthy gut flora.
Avoid antibiotics, especially strong ones, and read how to feed right stuff in your gut.

Got a gig tonight, 2x 45min sets plus possible encores. The place has a buffet and open bar which also applies to the band. Free food, free beer, 100ish euros and a chance to play some rock covers. Yes please.

Just don't set your instrument on fire, unless it's a guitar.

Just buy me a plane ticket to Minnesota and I'll do it.

Trying this because of health reasons. No alcohol for a month is easy, same with sodas. The coffee part is gonna be hard.

I didn't quit snus though, that would have been a nightmare

Having a GF helped me quit dipping. Apparently having small green slivers in your teeth is not sexy

 

[gphr513]

I had a roommate in college who dipped. Once he started leaving spitters around the apartment, I charged him $5 for every one I found. Shut that **** down quick

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Villa?

They were solid with Benteke. But last year, woof. One of the worst PL teams in recent memory lol.

Got to the point where a buddy and I who got into sports betting started betting against Villa every weekend

Didn't manage to set my bass on fire. I also dodged hangover.

We had the best crowd ever for us, 100ish people and 40-50ish people were really into it, dancing, moshing and singing along the both sets.

This was a cover gig where we had wishes from the birthday heroes what we should play. We play rock and metal cover gigs for money while working towards our own first full-length record. We play kinda traditional heavy metal with some influences towards different subgenres.

Here's the last nights coverband set list.

Set 1:
Dick Dale & The Deltones - Misirlou
Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll
Guns n Roses - Welcome to the Jungle
Bon Jovi - Runaway
Deep purple - Perfect strangers
Ozzy - Dreamer
Hanoi Rocks - Up Around the Bend
AC/DC - Shoot to Thrill

Set 2:
Quiet Riot - *** Come On Feel The Noize
Motörhead - Killed by Death
Sentenced - Noose
Stratovarius - Black Diamond
Europe - Final Countdown
Black Sabbath - Iron Man
Kiss - Lick it up
Iron Maiden - Run to the Hills

Encore:
Rammstein - Du Hast
Van Halen - Jump

Obviously it was a bit softer stuff I'm leaning towards to, but Killed by Death and Iron Man were excellent. The crowd was taking it all in though and the eternal favorites Final Countdown and Jump were mad, mad effort from the crowd. Loved every second of the gig. Well maybe except for the Guns n Roses as I tend to hate Axl Rose.

Those are great! You have the same singer for all of these?

Yeah. I'm also singing backing vocals so we get more depth there.

OMG! As a Newcastle fan, you have no idea how great it is to hear about this. Finally, a bigger loser than myself! I get so tired hearing from Liverpool/ Arsenal fans about how their team is " underperforming". You want underperforming? Talk to us.

You follow "The True Geordie" on YouTube? Would not recommend watching anything he puts out at work, or around people with sensitive ears, but he's ****ing hilarious

AdultSwim, the company that makes Rick and Morty, actually plays Rick & Morty season 3 premiere on loop in their website.

It was awesome. And no, this is not an April Fools prank.

Best April fools prank ever:

If you logged onto Porn Hub yesterday, you would get a pop up saying something about new technology that instantly synchronized all the videos you had recently watched to your facebook, Instagram and Snap Chat accounts

I had that happen to me but wasn't concerned cuz I don't have any sort of connection to the Internet besides this forum and a Jeep Wrangler forum so I knew it was a prank right away. One of my coworkers was telling me it happened to him and he went into immediate panic mode and shot out of bed and went to his laptop to check.

 

[Fremitus Borealis]

Bought some last minute tickets to the game today off of StubHub. Didn't realize that some kinds of tickets, you *have* to print them off. I don't own a printer
