    I'm not taking blue hair reddit creatures as gospel , I'll ask a radiologist when I go next. Most of the Reddit peeps would not fit in a MRI.

    What did you just read?

    I'm reading the Frank Herbert Dune books , this is re-read # hell I cannot remember. I usually do it yearly but realized I have not read them since the brain tumor in '23. Time to get cracking! I'm mid book 2 now.

    Pretty sure TC crashed that due to how shit his movie was. F1 was awesome , Mission Impossible to troupe to believe #400 was awful.

    New movies that dont deserve their own thread.

    Ok so we saw Wizard of Oz yesterday. Total run time of 75 minutes, It's almost all new footage interspersed with original movie footage as well. You can tell where the old footage didn't quite mix in well but it's few and far between. It's a full experience, during the tornado, they blow smoke...

    Holy shit dude I cannot imagine doing an MRI for 45 minutes. They would have to knock me 100% out. And to @Kithani I've never heard that open ones are garbage. I will however ask when I go to have my next scan in November. To me they are a life saver.

    Pretty soon after moving out on my own I called my mother (long distance even) to tell her how sorry I was for being such an entitled shit. I had no idea how the real world was. I still don't know how she raised 2 boys on less than $9 an hour, and she had an office job. Random Pic for FSR Gods...

    Review: FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I have some videos but they are huge. By this time I'm sure everyone has seen Wizard of Oz. They cut it down and almost all the 'movie' was new footage mixed with original. But they added real effects as well. There was a scene where the wind blew through the...

    Our Denny's isn't in a bad part of town. Here it's basically burger drive thru joints. Mexican, or Denny's. You can get food at the casino's but you have to hoof thru 100' of smokers. Our Denny's is also convenient. It was just a fucking bum. And if anyone think's 'oh they are poor unfortunate...

    I have to get regular brain scans. For those, they put your head in a clamp - and it sucks. You also have to lay still for 20 minutes , then contrast, then another 5-10 minutes. In a tube MRI, my head/neck/fingers/upperback would all go to sleep and I would be in extreme pain (I've had 7 back...

    Neither of us wanted to cook (that's most days) so my wife and I went to Denny's.

    Had that on my calendar, now just to get my wife to go. Not sure if she is one of the people that got freaked out by the flying monkeys (never made sense to me - young me thought they were hilarious). That theater didn't look packed, maybe I can get a 'local discount'.

    When Elon built the Nevada Gigafactory he was using every tax incentive he could get. One of the conditions for working on the place was you had to be a Nevada Citizen. Do you know how fucking hard it is to find Skilled electricians that are also Nevada citizens? At the time there was only about...

    That works, the el-cheapo ceiling fan boxes they sell now (should be able to see them in HD/Lowes) attach to the wood and have a plastic pocket to make the electrical joint in. That's pretty much all a pancake box is good for anyhow.

    What is above? If you have room, remove the pancake box completely and put in a new one (ideally deeper) but at the minimum the same type. Also, for some reason I thought you were from the UK, don't they use different colors for their wiring ? This is a sincere question , my in-laws always...

    I won't have a ceiling fan with a light kit like that. I need bare lamp holders so I can put high output lamps in them. When I turn on the light I want to SEE.
