I can't wait for this. I haven't seen it mentioned but "Boots" was a big influence on A Perfect Circle's "Counting Bodies Like Sheep" song, which is absolutely badass.

Question about dubbed language.

Posted by BoogerNuts on 3/19/25 at 10:55 pm
I've noticed it before in other movies/shows, but why do actors/actresses who are in foreign shows not do their own English dub overlays for the foreign shows they are in if they can speak English?

I'm assuming it simply comes down to money/contracts.

I just started 1899 on Netflix and the guy who played "middle age" Jonas in Dark is in it and speaks perfect English and it just got me wondering.
I dunno man, I think they will play as hard as possible for him. No one in their right mind thought he would be here long term. The team probably knew or at least had a pretty good idea. Knowing LC/McNeese the dude might even get a parade no matter what. He did a lot for them these past two years.The team will want to send him off in the best way they can.

It looked like it sneezed lol. I too, would have shite myself, although there is zero chance I'd ever put myself in that position.

For a "land grab." Presumably in the case they survived, even knowing everyone else would also let it rip. Basically just said fuggit, let em fly.

Ture story... When I was in high school I used to do some "cone racing", usually out in the parking lot at Burton. One time I got paired up for cone duty with a guy that had a Lotus, which I thought was incredible. When I walked up he said nice to meet you, "I'm Don". And I put it together as I saw his tow vehicle truck had a big Don's Carwash sign on the back.


That was Don Breaux. Used to be the GM of Don's. He had a Subaru WRX wagon before the Lotus. But Don Bruno was the owner. I believe Don Breaux is now one of the higher up managers at Alfred Miller.
So you specifically do not want a pull behind? Asking because my dad has a 2020 KZ Connect 30' that has been used one single time, the day he went to buy it. It has been covered and hooked to power/water since. It is in brand new condition.

re: Lake Charles Krewe of Omega Parade

Posted by BoogerNuts on 12/31/24 at 12:23 pm
I don't know your ethnicity, but that is a parade quite literally for black people. So if you're black you will enjoy it. It takes a weird route. The Krewe of Krewes parade is the big one. They are all family friendly as far as the crowds, but you will hear lots of Boosie lol. If you want turned down type of atmosphere and during the day the Jeeps on Parade followed by Motor Gras parades are also pretty fun and get to see some nice rides if you're into that.
I don't know where you are, but Stine has a lot of their cast iron 50% off right now. I bought 6 different ones as gifts and for myself.
Any LSU fans posting previous are trolling. Shaquille O'neal. Ain't close.
I’ve never watched anything to do with Gundam. I watched this series in one go a few nights ago. I almost quit immediately because it’s clearly just made with likely Unreal Engine. But the story was alright enough to stick it out. I play enough video games and enjoy a good cut scene, so whatever. I liked it.
You can try JT's Seafood, Tommie's Fish Market, Galley's Seafood Market, Holly Beach Seafood Market. Best chance may be Lake Charles Poultry.
Went outside town a bit to hopefully see it tonight. Finally did. Got this with my iPhone.

re: Vexus Fiber any good?

They are running it ALL over LC right now, they have already ran my street but for whatever reason when I call they say its still not available for me yet. The moment its available I will be leaving shite arse Optimum for them. Also AOP is apparently running as well, so whoever is available first.

Years ago when i upgraded from 50 meg to 200 and wasn't getting even close, I had a tech come out. He said there was water in the coax. He did his thing and fixed it and it worked, so I was good.

The guy who came yesterday asked me to come outside to show me that the line that was full of water years ago was still there. Just a lazy arse person who left it there. He also had put a splitter between my unit and my neighbor instead of my own drop, so he ran me my own as it should be. There were no grommets on the outside terminal which is why water was in everyone's terminations, but they don't notice because they apparently don't actually use them for anything demanding and don't notice or care.

This dude legit was very good at his job and showed me every single point of failure with proof and explained why. Laziness and dumbassery is why my stuff isn't working as it should be. I told him what the last tech did, and with zero description of the guy he said "Yea, that was Demetrius." I wanted to ask if he was a sorcerer because that was indeed the guys name lol. He even knew who did the "work" years ago on the water filled coax.

Well, tech came. Thankfully he was an actual Optimum in-house tech and not a contractor and this dude knew his shite for sure. He pretty much immediately knew what was probably wrong. He ran all new coax inside and outside. Ran signal tests at every single termination. Unfortunately the one single run of cable where the problem is, is between the box outside and my attic. That cable runs through my neighbors attic, so he could not go in to check it. He said "Let me guess, your neighbors just recently moved in?" And yea, they moved in about a month ago and he said "Yea...they fricked with something up there." So i just gotta let the landlord knowto run my own drop from the outside box into my attic. The tech gave me his personal number and even said he would provide the cable and come on his free time in his own car to terminate it and hook it up. Guy was awesome. At least now I know the problem. Thanks for everyone trying to help me.

No, does improve at any time, I got up to piss at like 4am one night, same thing.

No VPN.

Can’t access outside box (live in a townhouse.)

I guess if they end up not being able to improve it my only option until Vexus is available is Verizon home 5G. No idea how good that is, but I do already have Verizon as my mobile carrier at least. Guess I’ll find out this evening when the tech comes again.

I’ve tried on PC hardwired, laptop hardwired and WiFi, and phone (iPhone 15 pro)

I get what you are saying, but yes websites load noticeably slower. Specifically any images. However, my main concern is that I download a good amount of large files…a lot of them. Mostly assets such as large high res images, video files, 3D models, textures, etc for graphic design as that is what I do for a living. And those download speeds are much lower than what I previously got. Lower than the plan I was paying for. I don’t care about the number on the speed test but it is extremely aggravating having my actual speeds fall after a free “upgrade.”


I am also now realizing I never said the part about my upload speeds are actually what they should be. But yea, I like to get what I pay for.

I honestly don't know how else to say it man. I really appreciate you trying to help so please don't think I am being rude in any way.. I HAVE tried NOTHING but the modem connected to the coax, with a single ethernet from the modem to my PC. The router was never in the picture. Multiple times.
