really quite good.

One of the funnier subs imo. I was actually thinking of R/reallifedoodles or irldoodles or something, which is like the snakes.

If you like that, check out R/birdswitharms.

Thank you. Found some boulderers who knew the way 👍👍

Portland climbing question/favour : Does anyone have a topo, picture guide or description of the Fallen Slab climbs that they’d be willing to share please?

Made it all the way here, forgot the (…) guidebook, can’t find free topos online. I just need to ID the fallen slab climbs (easy peasy for for gf to lead).

Indeed. Thought I’d included what I did.

I studied Latin and Greek etymologies in high school. A pain at the time but gave me a significant competitive edge at uni and work. Would strongly recommend. Also helped widen my world view of how languages and cultures intertwine and evolve.

I'm sure we all do that to a degree and I wasn't singling you out

Heheh, Cheers for the reply. I didn’t assume you were, just figured I’d atone for my sins.

Dark grey / black = deceased cyclist

We are all occasionally the villain in someone else’s story. It’s not my place to dictate their experience, I just have to practice acceptance.

the vibe these days so negative

I’m guilty of contributing to this (hopefully not the following bit). I regret that LFGSS at one point became a place where I allow myself to express negativity or vent rather than come to learn and contribute. Actively striving to change that. Hopefully general forum mood will improve as the times improve.

Drastically cutting down on social media and most ‘news’ worked well for me. Have returned to SM this year for job hunting and it’s definitely hit my mood hard once or twice.

Bonus points for letting the neighbours know the client is a cunt.

I’ve heard that some shops just have one certified mechanic out of (many) so they can claim they’re a Cytech certified shop.

Never tried it but have heard that reusing large TV boxes tends to minimise the rough treatment. Might increase the chance of it going missing though.

Iceland, Ireland, UK, Australia and New Zealand will apparently be the last bastions of civilisation in a few decades, according to Anglia Ruskin Uni.

Same issue as me then. I couldn’t get the freehub to free wheel with it on, but I was stressed as heck so might’ve made a mistake. My boss claimed that a colleague made the thing work with the rubber gasket installed, but I never confirmed. Your mileage may vary, I’d suggest installing it and see if its spins freely.

Would be worth taking a pic of the inside for folks here to double check/confirm.

Top story on https://www.nytimes.com is the US Senate passing the $1 trillion infrastructure bill. Now onto the House, which is tenuously under democrat control ftm.

Cheers, I’ll try to remember. Gets tricky when going from kg to st + lb + oz on the fly, which seems to happen often.

Yes remove the spacer. I had a debate at work about the rubber gasket, in our case wouldn’t freewheel with it on.

— looking at your pic it looks like a plastic shim. Is it hard plastic or flexible rubber?

I always forget how much a Stone weighs. Would prefer to just give my weight in a single unit, whether kg or lb.

Found that same article. Reads like something out of The Onion, outdated slang and all. But what doesn’t these days?

Fahrenheit, and everyone’s favourite, stone.

What size? I have a 4” bolted down vice in SE24.

As does cycling to a lesser degree?

@itsbruce Oh, boy. Why not go derail that thread, not this one quite so soon again. Friendliest thread on the forum, I'm sure you'll find.

Hardly a derail, nor was it intended to go that way. I took your prior comment onboard, but I can’t even respond to someone’s post now?
