I want to buy some foot bass pedals but Im not sure where to start looking or what to search. im kind of considering buying an organ on CL and just take it apart. ...
Can we make subreddits for "Things my kid drew", "Costumes my kid wore", and " Pictures of people/animals I love who have died?"
Nothing personal, but this is not a good use for the general community. Metafilter would be more polite but probably remove the pictures anyways because they don't fit the criteria for interesting shares... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: Forgot t...
Reddit, What inspiring thing have you learned over the years that has improved your paradigm of life and the people around you?
For me, I learned that life's is too short to stress out over little things and that when you do good things for people is always comes back to you. Having this mindset had helped me so much just in day to day encounters with people. It has helped increase my self confidence and self esteem, and even influenced the peo...
Change Firefox 3.6 tab opening behavior
The first thing I noticed when I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 was that when I clinked a link to open a new tab the tab was opened right next to the working tab rather then placing it on the end of the tab bar. This annoyed me to no end so I found how to reset how Firefox opened tabs. Type about:config into the address bar....
Any other pipe smokers out there?
I've been smoking a pipe for awhile now, and I'm wondering about others out there. How/when do you do it. Cigarrettes are ubiquitous, and I see them all the time in public.

help, my wife doesn't want to pop my bacne (back acne) anymore
I've become accustomed to making my wife pop all my hard-to-reach bacne.

Dear Redditors from broken families...
How many of you are from divorced or separated parents? Has this affected the way you deal with relationships?

I just got Metroid Prime Trilogy and i have to say that Bioshock has nothing on this...
When people talk about Bioshock, usually the word immersive is thrown around a lot. I defiantly felt that when I played it. The world, characters, and gameplay all came together for a tremendous experience. The list assumes after your first play through, not on repeats. As we all know, any game you play more than once,...

The spending blueprint forecasts this year’s budget shortfall will hit a record $1.6 trillion, following a $1.4 trillion deficit in 2009. The 2011 deficit, for the fiscal year that starts Oct. 1, is predicted to be $1.3 trillion, with deficits remaining above $700 billion for the rest of the decade, according to the pr...

Dear Reddit :: After reading about the Grammys last night, I took note that Beyonce won her 16th Grammy, while Neil Young won his FIRST. Waaa?!? What are your views on what exactly the Grammys currently stand for and represent?
Secondly, there has been talk of making the Grammys more geared towards youth. They plan to do this by not giving awards to seasoned veterans because "kids don't want to see Eric Clapton or Robert Plant win awards" Too bad the Grammys cannot be modeled more like The Academy Awards, where judgement of art is not based ...

Is capitalism possible without consumerism?

A few months ago I bought one of those fancy shmancy LED Samsungs.

DAE hate when people say "I don't need no (insert something here)"?
Don't that they realize that they are saying the opposite of what they mean do say? "I don't need no books" translates into "I do not need no books", so basically you are saying you DO need books. I said this in response to someone's comment saying "I don't need no x" and got downvoted into oblivion.
