MTB: Full suspension, or front suspension for my new bike?
I am close to buying a new/new to me ride, but i have never owned a full suspension bike. I have been looking at stumpy's and hifi's on ebay and have found some pretty good deals. obviously i have found better deals on hardtails such as the scott scale 40.

Think of the last pet fish you had. Is it still alive?
Just wondering because I'm fairly sure most pet fish die within a week, especially if you have it as a kid.

Dear Youtube, please make a separate vlog section for your site. I'm always seeing the same users' videos in the "Most Viewed" section.

Seriously, go to youtube right now and look at how many of these users' videos are in the top 20. Remember when you'd click on the most viewed section and you'd stu...
Advice on Marigny and NOLA in general for a senior on a fixed income?
I have an older relative who is thinking of relocating to New Orleans from LA to save on living expenses, and check out a new city. He is looking at a place in Marigny. Neither he nor I know the city very well, but it seems like a cool enough area... He is a lifelong jazz musician, so he'd like to be somewhere near ...

Dear Reddit, does anyone know how to contact Tim Burton or his agent? Or possibly anyone who would be able to do that?
I have a friend, and she absolutely loves Tim Burton movies, especially the character of Jack the Pumpkin King.

So I came up with the idea of some how contacting Tim Burton, and possibly getting her an autograph, or maybe even...
Mold paranoia, but hey, let's talk about it...
I've been doing some reading about mold on weed and how it's generally a good idea to avoid it, even at the cost of throwing away some buds. I have no intention of smoking weed that I know has mold on it but I've been getting more and more paranoid about any and every spot of white on my trees. I'm definitely over anal...
I want the Saints to win but I say Colts by 14!
It would be so good to see the Saints win. The party would run all week long in NOLA then become Mardi Gras next week. I'm just not feeling it though and think the Colts will win by 2 TDs.
Okay, what are everyone's favorite song lyrics?
I figured, since we got the dumb ones out of the way, users can now say what their favorites are, popular or not. I'll start. This is from "The War Criminal Rises and Speaks" by Okkervil River, though really any of their songs I could put here. And the title explains the context of these: "Now he’s rising and no...
[0] Am I the only one who has these type of dreams?
Sometimes I have dreams where at some point I stumble across a large stash of herb and I just cram it in my pockets, or I buy a bag in the dream and stash it away in my pocket.

Because of Reddit, I feel bad for liking The Black Eyed Peas.
I SUPPOSE it could only be worse if I said I liked Nickelback. Honestly, I see the Black Eyed Peas almost as the rap version of Daft Punk, of which I am also a fan. For me, the repetition is somewhat relaxing. Am I the only one that feels this way? Edit: I feel like I have to clarify. I can't really say that I am a BE...
Hey Reddit, if you could improve the public education system, how would you do it?

Best way to take screenshots?
Now that I have amazing graphics, over 100FPS, I'm finding the TF2 world to be great for taking screenshots. The only problem, most of them are cluttered with info that I don't want. Example: I'm not certain how it will look on imgur, but that was a really neat screenshot due to the way the soldier died at the e...
I need some advice, and I think you all are the only ones that would understand.
I've had lots of changes in my life recently that I like to think were catalyzed by lsd and shrooms. Every trip I've had has had ended with me confronting very "difficult" thoughts. I went outside and saw fake people, I felt my own racism, and I cried when I felt that my life wasn't going on track. I finally called m...

Ask /r/iPhone: My mom is traveling from Denmark to The States soon, and wants to be able to make local calls...
The phone is all new, so I'm guessing I'll have to jailbreak the sucker first. My question is: if I have an unlocked iPhone, can I buy some sort of pre-paid sim card over there that will work with her iPhone so she can make local calls? She's only staying for a few weeks, so a subscription is complete overkill... ...

Hey Reddit, do you yourself have any proof that the Earth is not flat?
Please do not point me towards various articles. I meant in your own experience. I am not saying that the earth is flat.
So, I want to break up with my girlfriend of 8 months.
The relationship has gone stale; I don't really think I love her anymore. We broke up before but got back together. I believe it to be the result of moments of weakness on both sides. Ever since the first break up my feelings for her have dwindled, and now it's to the point where I'm thinking of and trying to see othe...

DAE have no interest in sports?
I'm 31, male and have never been interested in watching football, baseball, the Olympics, etc. I find it awkward when people ask "the score" of the baseball, football or whatever game was playing before I left for work. Does anyone else here find sports as uninteresting as I do?
Dominions 3, the most awesome unknown game
Dominions 3 is an indy grand strategy game. It is turn based, and along the lines of a civilization/master of magic style.

No superbowl for me and I'm tired of hearing about it. Who else?
I like sports; I like playing sports, that is. Seeing small figures on a TV screen drives me nuts. I'd rather just go play. A national celebration for sitting around drunk eating junk food watching small figures on a TV screen is then obviously not for me. Anyone else feel a little bit outsider because we're not goin...

So I'm watching the Crosby/Ovechkin lovefest on NBC. They're talking about them every ten seconds, they have the Star Cam on NBC.com, they're going to be talking about them at the intermission coming up. They're on - it seems - every other ad.

Lawyers: I just read that hair drug test are 10-50x more likely to test positive for people with dark hair. Isn't this discrimination?
I read that because traces of drugs are stored in the melanin of the hair follicles, the more melanin the more traces of drugs and to rule out legal versus illegal or second hand versus first person they test for a threshold of x parts per million not a binary yes/no so if drugs are present then someone with dark hair ...
I don't drink soda, yet I have a strong, almost instinctual preference for Coca Cola over Pepsi. AMA
Throw away account, obviously. I drink soda once, maybe twice a year. I almost always regret it immediately because its too sweet and syrupy. Even then, I'm more likely to drink something clear like ginger ale or maybe sprite. None the less, I'm strongly opinionated when it comes to the Coke vs. Pepsi debate. I prefe...

Hey Reddit, what's your favorite Eargasm song?
Lets list some interesting songs here. I'm sure everyone has a few personal favorites here or there that just takes them to a different place whenever they hear it.

Taken for granted. And HE thinks HE has a problem.
He doesn't take me out - ever. He tends to shut me up as soon as I start speaking, whether it's an issue or just a story; he doesn't want to hear it. He's extremely unmotivated. He's a downer and seems naturally miserable, because no matter what I do for him, he's still ambivalent about it. He can be pretty ungrate...
Dear Atheists: I have a concern

About harmonic progressions in minor tonalities
I learned in music theory class that in baroque composition in a major key they could go up 3 steps 5 or 7, like from I to III, III to V or something. And any time move to I or V, something like that. I was just wondering if there are such rules for composing in a minor tonality, and if there are, what are they?
