I just like the chime that tells me I've left my key in the ignition. I lose my keys so easily... Holy poo poo! The ripples, signal noise, and flashes that I've seen for my entire life are real medical issues that have an actual name. It's a mix of phosphenes and visual snow I may still be crazy, but I'm technically not hallucinating!

What's wrong with curved windows on beetles? My grandparents owned half a dozen of the things, and I'd never even heard mention of window problems E: it has nothing to do with windows and is just indicative of unwanted model year changes, isn't it?

Also, don't google phosphenes and auditory hallucinations if you have any hint of hypochondria, it's not a comforting read Yu-Gi-Ho! posted:Also uh... I've had visual snow most of my life. Hallucinogens did make me a lot more aware of it, and if I happen to do a bit of Oh, they're both apparently totally natural and usually transient phenomena that most people occasionally experience.

, I notice it more than I would while sober. (and of course, now that I'm thinking about it, it's a shitload worse than usual... you just did the Rick Roll of visual snow

  Well holy poo poo, I didn't know that anyone else knew my pain. Is your night vision kind of weird too? I had trouble learning to navigate at night and used to be unable to read street signs until I learned to repeatedly refocus my eyes to get a clear view of the letters And according to the rather limited research I've done into it so far, it's either a benign annoyance that has no discernable cause, a quirk with brain metabolism forcing your low-light sensing cells to "see" the heat that they produce, or a big ol red flag for scary neurological and autoimmune diseases. Judging by the fact that I can't remember not seeing the fuzz or ripples, I'm not particularly worried about demyelination of the optic nerve, a stroke, or significant pressure being applied to the optic nerve since I would've also noticed other large problems, such as tremors, rosacea, or death

For maybe $.5 million total after renovations, that is one of the coolest houses that money could buy. I'm just disappointed that I can't find a firepole in the pictures....Yu-Gi-Ho! posted:My night vision is fair. It's not great, but it's not horrific. I can't read street signs at night unless I'm standing next to them, but I've been using smartphone navigation to get around for ages now (coming from someone who drives for a living). Even if I'm driving home, I'll still fire up Google Maps or Waze just to make sure I avoid traffic, construction, etc. I'm supposed to go for a neuro counsel and that driving stuff is what scares me about going. I don't want to have a doctor revoke my license over something that hasn't demonstrably affected my driving for the 8 years I've been behind the wheel. I'm positive that my epileptic uncle was being a douchecanoe, because he is a douchecanoe, to his doctor or the DMV when his license was revoked, but I don't want to take that chance I can take bad health news, but I loving love to drive

However, I don't want that diesel thing to slip by me. How in the gently caress do you realistically enforce a $30 a day tax for driving inside of the city?

Ice cream, bronkaid, and robitussin work well for me. I used to think ice cream was an excuse to make kids not pissed about getting their tonsils out, but it genuinely helps with the swelling for a little while

For broader criticism of Ebay wheel purchasing, I just want people to make it clear how many wheels they are selling. I poo poo you not, when I was looking for used Cromodoras recently, I came across one listing where the picture had 5 wheels, the title said "set" and the description said 3 wheels are for sale, but I can buy the other two for $60 plus shipping extra. Why have more than 3 in the picture??

I've been working my way through my bar's stock of cans and bottles of beer because I'm bored of drinking Mickeys' and Jameson. So far I've found out that I love Gose beers, and that Maui Bikini Blonde is a genuine godsend It tastes the way that beer tastes in commercials. Getchu some for summer

That is the most transparent "where do you live, I want to rob you" question I've heard in a long time.

Lagunitas puts a bunch of hops into their pilsner. Regardless of anything else, that is reason enough to have those guys tap the brakes.

I think the problem with IPA's is Hyperdedicated IPA drinkers demanding higher and higher levels, creating this bizarre circlejerk around a bad taste. There's only so many IBU you can palate, and dancing around the flavors for a complex flavor profile is admirable and I love to drink them when done right, but I feel like most IPA'S just use the overwhelming bitterness of hops to hide sloppy brewing I got some 5 Rabbits Perfect Paloma Gose, and it's amazing to drink

And the PT Cruiser was once a genuinely good piece of exterior design, in the vein of their late Plymouth designs, that Chrysler was too lazy to improve on over the course of a decade. Chrysler's policy of  and the reluctance to address basic problems with the car for so long got to the point that everyone hated it as much for what it represented as for what it actually was

Nintendo does that false scarcity bullshit so much, and they are constantly talking out of both sides of their mouth when it comes to hardware and 3rd party support that I won't trust them to not turn the Switch into another Wii U Hell, they just announced a new version of the 3DS after claiming that they were moving 3DS developers onto projects for the Switch so that there's more releases for their flagship. Guess what every Switch owner I know is complaining about their otherwise fun and convenient console right now?

No matter how much you gently caress things up with your S/O and cars, take solace that you probably won't gently caress things up as much as I did. I took her and bought a rusty old POS in the middle of the night with most of my own personal savings, have it die on the highway, was unable to to get it home without using the rest of my savings for a tow, then my girlfriend's Emotional Support Dog got diagnosed with bone cancer the morning we got back, and it was put down that same afternoon It took 3 months for her to even talk about the car besides, "you need to get rid of that". She's finally forgiven me, thank God

Although the girlfriend did just get a new ESA, the owner said it's a German shepherd/lab mix, but I'm pretty sure she's just a flatcoated retriever and the person didn't know better. Besides the tiny eyes and and slightly longer than usual coat, she seems to be all retriever

I've spent 30 hours playing NieR: Autoerrotica and I don't know if I like it or not.... The combat is so simplistic for a Platinum game, the world map is somehow too big and too small, the flight sections are an exercise in tedium, and there's just not 30 hours worth of engaging gameplay to fill the game with I don't want to stop playing though
