GSXR600 or GSXR750? (sh.itjust.works)

Looking to upgrade from a Ninja 650R - had both of these bikes as my top picks and trying to get some opinions on both bikes as far as value, comfort, quirks, etc.

Wait, so does conception start at the mission briefing? Or the general's speech? Asking to inform my local politician.

Not sure what flavor you're looking for but here's some of the ones I enjoyed:

  • Pan's Labyrinth - fairy tale horror
  • Gretel & Hansel -fairy tale horror
  • Babadook - dramatic horror
  • Mothman Prophecies - dramatic horror
  • Hereditary - dramatic horror
  • The Descent - adventure/action horror
  • Jeepers Creepers - adventure/action horror
  • The Mist - adventure/action horror
  • The Crazies - adventure/action horror
  • 10 Cloverfield Lane - adventure/action horror
  • This is the End - comedy horror
  • Shaun of the Dead - comedy horror
  • Zombieland - comedy horror.

On my Halloween movie list this year I'm planning on watching

  • Little Otik (fairy tale horror with stop motion & live action - looks artsy)
  • Lamb (supernatural horror)
  • Tigers are not Afraid (supposed to be similar to Pan's Labyrinth)
  • Midnight Meat Train (Clive Barker horror- one of Bradley cooper's earlier movies)

Saw some other good ones already posted here - Event Horizon, Midsommar - so I think you'll get a good list.

Along with trying to add contributive posts here and there, I'm also trying to be more mindful about upvoting. I think most us like to see appreciation and acknowledgement of our post efforts, so a little upvote goes a long way towards encouraging content creation.

I'm upvoting all of the comments in here so each and every one if you gets that little validation hit. It'll be like pouring sugar over an ants nest.

Someone upvote me back so I can get my validation hit too.

Only a few insects are known to have the ability to hear of which cicadas are included. However, from Brittanica:

Cicadas are noted for the intensity of sound produced by some species and for the elaborate development of the ears, which are located on the first segment of the abdomen.

Please adjust your torture method accordingly and continue...

Just finished Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time. One of my top reads, let alone sci-fi reads, for the past couple of years for sure. Super well-thought out concepts, good character development, and an irresistible hook that will take you out of your comfort zone when you find out that you really don't know who you are siding with!

Has anyone read this or any of Tchaikovsky's other works??

I really hate the term "vacation days." I'm not going to Disneyland everytime I'm out of the office. Most of the time its stuff like having the HVAC technician over during their 4-hour service call window; taking my family member to have surgery; recovering from the flu/covid; taking a mental health day or catch-up day for weekday-only errands.

This might be where some of the missing 34% are not agreeing for more days. The label is part of the problem. Hell I want more vacation days so that I CAN squeeze an actual vacation in there.

Yeah he's going to exploit the shit out of that mugshot. Bet it'll be on the cover of his newest memoir. Do they let people smile in their mugshots nowadays? I'm seriously hoping they don't at Fulton.

Fucks sake OP, mark it NSFSW.

Used to work retail so I feel this. Crazy thing is that sometimes it only takes one or two customers (and their gremlin children) to cause this kind of chaos. I'd go into fitting rooms and shit would be thrown all over the floors. Every now and then there would be extra surprises...like food or drink containers, or used diapers, or urine in the wastebasket. Fun times.
