I’m just your average Canadian wolf. I’m a siren enthusiast and railfan as my main hobbies. I run the Civil Defense Sirens Wiki, and am working on restoring a few vintage sirens (such as a FS&S Model L and a rare Sterling Siren MOD. F) as well as a 1970s Safetran mechanical crossing bell.

Many A True Nerd has always made consistently great Fallout content, and he’s only gotten better over the years. Been watching him since 2014.

Trains, and sirens. Their history, the way they work and are put together, the rare units, all really fascinating to me. There’s so much obscure information that is just waiting to be uncovered.

Because Russia is anti-West, and that’s literally all that matters to them. Doesn’t matter what Russia, China, North Korea, etc do. The West is evil so they get a pass. Horribly stupid logic.

Where I work, most of the staff are focused on the drivethru. You have only 3 employees for dine-in and DoorDash/Uber/Skip. One makes all of the sandwiches, one runs back and forth to grab drinks and fries from the stations, and the other is the front counter order taker. We still get horribly overwhelmed because people tend to show up in large groups, usually high school students or seniors. The poor fry station person has to make both the drivethru and dine-in orders quickly.

Same with the restaurant I work at, the parking lot is woefully too small for the volume of traffic we get, and the line regularly spills onto one of the busiest roads in town and holds up traffic badly. We’re the third busiest restaurant of its brand in Canada.

Or they add a bunch of trap/dubstep nonsense and lazy stuttered and repeated vocals. It’s been done to death.

Her voice is nasally and grating. It takes an already annoying song and somehow makes it worse. The lyrics are uninspired and sound like the first thing she came up with (“I’m good, yeah I’m feeling alright” Are you kidding me? You dug a song out of its grave and insulted it with THIS?) and the “Let it go Na Na Na Na Na” part with her incredibly nasally voice makes me want to break something.

Felix Cartel completely ruined You Get What You Give. Let’s turn an upbeat, happy song full of energy into the most basic, boring, sleep-inducing track possible, where even the singer sounds bored and is half-singing. Plus the annoying repeated vocals typical of creatively bankrupt music.

They didn’t threaten to kick Courtney Love or Marilyn Manson’s asses in. Jokes aside, fucking awful cover.

It’s a private company. They don’t have shareholders to report to, so they’re not remotely as scummy. Fuck the rich, but choose your battles and go after the ones who are really the problem.

I think Psyched is just looking for any excuse to get offended and act righteous on the internet.

This was because she had attempted to drill for the hidden headphone jack, and thought it would not turn back on because the battery was dead.

Wow, this post is absolute trash. You seriously took the time out of your day to create such an absolute fucking trainwreck of a post. I’m unbelievably disappointed and I don’t think I am going to be able to sleep at night knowing that such a horrifyingly godawful post exists on this site. My mental health has taken a hit and I may never recover from seeing this post. OP, this is all your fault. If you had just stopped for one second and thought about the ramifications of this crime against humanity, maybe you could have avoided traumatizing thousands of people. But you didn’t. I hope you’re proud of what you’ve done, shame on you.

Starbuck and Gary Laser-Eyes. Both dumb as bricks (they never get the brain cell) but super sweet and cuddly. Complete lap cats. Gary also has the loudest purr I’ve ever heard from a cat, you can hear him through walls.

Do note that the source is Fox Entertainment. (Legally they aren’t a news source.) This is to be taken with a massive grain of salt, as they have been proven to intentionally post misinformation to further their agenda.

I’m a railroad and siren enthusiast. Many people look down on the hobbies as “childish”, although there are tons of adults who participate. I still feel uneasy telling people though, because I fear how they’ll react.

Some sirens can run as low as 6 volts, so that’s genuinely possible lmao

Snowpix,

Small sirens are usually used on vehicles such as fire engines, as they are audible at a longer distance than electronic vehicle sirens. Small sirens are also often used in industrial sites, where they are used as general indoor emergency sirens and lunch whistles. They are also often used by rural volunteer fire departments as fire sirens to summon firefighters to the station during a fire call. They’re perfectly suited for short range use.

Personally I don’t care for If And When We Rise Again. Song takes too long to get started, and doesn’t sound that great compared to the rest of the album. I don’t care for most of the 99 Songs covers either, besides a few.

And mad respect to them for doing that. Fuck Victory
