Nerdy Lifters' Corner

We just re-watched the 4 Jurassic Park films over the weekend, probably stemmed from subliminal influence from this thread

Wait your neighbour has a goat?

not where I live now, but my house in pittsburgh, yes haha. driving home form work I had a better chance of running into chickens, horses and goats than I did cars.

That damn goat just LOVED to be outside the wooden fence. It literally would get out, and then stick its head back through the fence to eat the grass on the inside... weirdest thing ever (or ultimate portrayal of "that grass is NOT always greener" haha)

This made me laugh way too hard.

Also, our neighbors have a rooster. That was an interesting one to get used to.

Me 3 for a brief time

Earth Sciences was my intended major when I got to University here, I took a bunch of their course offerings towards my general science first year. (I ended up doing best in chemistry instead, despite my lab partner dropping out mid-term, and moved into chem eng. instead)

They were the easiest, least mathematically intense science courses I've ever taken so if anyone is interested in getting extra credits I'd suggest it to anyone who finds geology genuinely interesting.

You need good eyes for some of the first year courses though lol. Rock type identification is a big section (I swear the rest is interesting)

Uggh, Earth Science....not my favorite...stalagtites, stalagmites...all the same to me :toofunny:
 
For the record USAopoly has great CS, puzzle buyers

Was missing a piece and now I'm getting a new full puzzle sent out from Cali, no return needed or hassle at all

I was always taught that stalactites were the "ceiling" ones because of the "c", and the stalagmites were the "ground" ones because of the "g" ;)

I thought the mites were on the ceiling because they MIGHT fall on you.. guess I've been wrong all these years...

Very nice. Being in South Florida, I don't wear long sleeves to workout very often, but that is a cool shirt.

Black panther and venom ones are so sick!
Damn you for showing this! Now i have to go spend money
 
Pay attention to the listed arm lengths on full sleeves!

If you have thick arms you may come up short so order 1 size up IMO, should still be a slim fit

I have a compression Batman one similar (not quite as badass looking though lol)

Amazon has the official shop + 2-3 knockoff brands to choose from
 
HST, Comics, firearms, old school bbing, old vynil, antique smalls.Invalid Link RemovedInvalid Link Removed

Let me know how it fits and what you think of quality once you get it, if you don't mind. I've seen similar items, but am always cautious of quality.
 
I ordered a black compression Punisher top in November (for Halloween) I never got. I got my stringer from part of my refund lol

One of the super-powerless characters I always enjoyed. Will get a nicer top when I come across it again

One on PS there looks decent enough, maybe...

Dammit Dan why you making us all open our wallets lol

The Punisher Max books by Garth Ennis kick so much ass!
 
Driven2lift said:
Thanks for the tip, hadn't read any novel renditions yet!

Plenty of other nerdy novels though
Click to expand...

oh these are comics. Marvel had a Max line (not sure if they still do) which gave them more freedom to do things. Garth Ennis of Preacher and Hellblazer fame took it to new violent levels that were perfect for Punisher.
 
Haha sorry guys. I figure if I impulse buy, you all should too so I don't feel bad ;)

I'll let you know what the fit is like. Got shipping already but it's coming from china so no clue how long it may take
 
Got another nerdy crafty idea for at home,

Tracked down the guy I sold the bulk of my trading cards to a few years back when I was in a spot for the $ (Yugi)

All resold, gone.
Kind of hoped somehow it was all still together and I could buy it back.

Might grab a bundle of cards cheap but it would have been much prettier with holographic/higher rarity lol

I'm feeling too at home in this thread

I have a whole binder full of good/rare/old Yugioh cards, and some of the original starter decks too. I sold a handful of cards a few years ago for $10-50 a piece, but still have most of them. I also have a ton of tins full of normal, common cards too.

I had rarity levels maxed on my competitive decks, almost all 40 holographic, ghost rare triplicates...

Sadly they all depreciated a lot if they were played.

The first sets, Exodia, Blue Eyes, etc. Sell for a good amount still if first edition

Middle sets (past competitive archtypes) are all worth 1/10 what they were when I played

New competitive is the same, expensive as balls



Sidenote: I could only ship out your ARA today, but it is now on route!

I had 4... 2 holographic I think if I remember correctly... all perfectly kept never bent or used...
 
Event prize cards or mistake prints can be worth even more than this

Hey so this is nerdy enough for here, anyone else seen Assassins Creed?

The gameplay was never for me but concept and art was, I thought the movie was done well from a non-fan standpoint
