Deep Dish Fuckfest posted:the most "what the gently caress" reaction to people collecting things i ever had was when i was trying to find what bags would fit a really old vacuum cleaner i had. turns out people collect vacuum cleaners and i ended up on a website for those people. of note was the dude who had like 20+ variations of the 50 years old vacuum cleaner i had, and the section of the website designed for kids, because you obviously want to make sure your kids get into vacuum cleaner collecting when they're still young but did you get the bag this is important

Shame Boy posted:i really like the vacuum forum ep, it's weirdly innocent? just a bunch of dudes who really really like vacuum cleaners for completely nonsexual reasons I feel the same about the Terry Love forums. General purpose plumbing forum (that's refreshingly helpful and not overrun by judgemental tradesmen) but they have some of the best toilet related content on the internet. Top 10 lists of all the toilets out there with different installation scenarios and a thriving subforum dedicated just to toilets. https://terrylove.com/crtoilet.htm https://terrylove.com/forums/index.php?forums/toilet-forum-discussions.3/ Also has that Web 1.5 feel and doesn't do the stupid thing where it hides images behind registration

homebrewtalk.com is kinda like the meat smoking one. it's been around since the old days of the internet, it's got a million boomers on it and a lot of the information isn't really best practice anymore. but everything else is on Reddit, and that subreddit is actually fine and is helpful, but it doesn't retain any institutional knowledge. meanwhile homebrewtalk is just there with a bunch of old recipes, old advice, old brew setup plans, threads that have 1500 pages and the OP actually gets updated. obviously because my dumb old gay rear end is posting here I miss forums but we really lost a lot. poo poo moving to discord is waaaaay worse, all of that is dust in the wind.

Since that I got checked out by the VA, and they said “Agent Orange” was behind much of the start of the problems. agent orange took away my meat smoking life
