Sweetwater insists that I let this boxed guitar sit around unopened for 24 hours. Fine.

I guess it depends on the body type and there's a lot of moving parts in it, but for me exercise doesn't seem to make anywhere near as much of a difference as dietary changes. I've managed to lose almost 30kg in half a year by just cutting out most carbs and most important of all, cutting out evening snacks. This was 5 years ago and I've gained it all back since And now I still haven't found the motivation to do it again.

Try being depressed. I was working out to the point my wife was sending me stuff about how working out can count as self harm. I didn't actually lose any weight, but I think the last time I measured myself, I lost like 7-8 inches off my chest and waist and was almost to 18" biceps.

If nothing else...I got a good nickname at work because of it, and how I picked up something that apparently one person shouldn't be able to pick up.

I have an ingrown hair coming in directly under my tailbone where my ass cheeks come together and sitting down is, quite literally, a pain in my ass.

We were fucking with my old foreman at work because he doesn't like country music. He said I wouldn't get liking hip hop because I'm white. I was expecting Bone Thugs and Harmonies, or Busdriver.

Nope, I'm to white to get the goat of rapping......

So I've been getting used to my new car, I usually keep all of my stuff in one cup holder and my drink in another. Why the hell would somebody only put one cupholder in a car?

So my wife and I were going to play Far Cry 5 because the added multiplayer, but you can't play normal multiplayer...I have to buy another copy of a game that I already own to be able to use a free feature in it.

As someone who has downloaded games, and then bought them with no intentions to ever play them again...

Just came home with a pair of Beyerdynamic DT990´s and these things fucking suck ass. Wish I would have just gone with an another pair of DT770´s. Friday's ruined.

can you return them? or exchange them?

 

[Kaura]

can you return them? or exchange them?

Sadly, no. Headphones are considered "hygienic" products so they don't fit under the normal 14 day return policy.

I have to say, I was probably a bit too fast & furious with my "review". I think I'm quickly adapting to the sound of these headphones. I mean, after using some shitty gaming headset for a week anything would sound too bright compared to those cardboard box sounding pieces of shit.

So I'm full of those dad doubts....

Am I not sacrificing enough where they can't do all the things they want to, or am I sacrificing too much where they're gonna grow up and be like, "hey, you remember that one time dad was home? Me neither." Are they gonna hate me for the times I was strict? Or remember the times where I said bedtime is just a suggestion....

Bought a pair of DT770s awhile back and thought I should have just gotten another set of ATH M50Xs.

The non detachable 'straight cord' that gets tangled up every 9 seconds because it's 90+ feet long is pissing me off.

I use these for practice/gaming/YT stuff and while the headphones are good and more comfortable than the ATs, I know these are going to end up in a box inside of 6 months and I'll never use them again.

People at work have been bitching about how Budweiser put a trans person on their cans.

Oh yeah, if a dude can identify as a chick, and a chick can identify as a dude, then I identify as a fucking helicopter

Well, if that makes you happy, more power to ya, but going by that logic, Bud Lite is the transest beer of all time, because it's fucking water that identifies as beer.

They wanted to know if I was gonna boycott Budweiser too (muh masculinity), and I told them well, ya, I haven't drank Bud Lite since I had a choice in what I got to drink, I drink whiskey like a real man does. God, I think I gave a boomer a stroke.

Instead of your pronouns, what's your character alignment? Being chaotic neutral is pretty fun.
