 Starting over... 
#842744 - 01/27/20 07:23 AM (4 years, 10 months ago) |
|

A couple years ago I started building my arcade cabinet. I got the cabinet itself built, but I rushed and was real busy with work.
I'm looking at it now and I'm not happy with the design. It's not tall enough and the width is just, okay.. it's going to be a 2 player which means you need more space..
It won't be hard for me to start over because I already have all the tools and supplies needed. Really the only thing I need to purchase is a sheet of mdf board and a 10' dowel.

Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm just to feel better

This is the old one...
It's too short, too thin, and has an ugly design.
I'm drawing out my lines now for the new cabinet. I may or may not get it cut today...

Well if the arcade doesn't work out... You could make a set of stocks... Lock yourself in it while XUL hits you dressed in black leather with a cat o nine tails.

Why do you say that? I sometimes try and make and accent in my writing. Sometimes it works, sometimes maybe not.

Oggie doggie.. got the pieces cut. I did have a minor hiccup though. My damn make shift pony tilted while I was cutting which caused the pieces to fall and break. A little bit of glue fixed it right up..
My next step will be to clamp all the similar pieces and sand em down so they sit equally.

I didn't mean any disrespect.. I ask because some of your choice words or sentences seem... off.

Nola. Midget town as most people know it.

Maine has this accent in the Down East region I live in.
port = pot with the accent.
Getting a woman with a thick downeast accent would be sweet.

People from the northwest say creck instead of creek or worshing machine instead of washing machine. Pop instead of soda. Pennie instead of penis.
It's weird.

I stopped saying pop after I went to college. I moved back home and someone reprimanded me for saying soda instead of pop.

Spanish speaking folk call all soda, coke.
It's so funny watching this confusion unfold.

Of course it depends on what race . Different races use different vernacular.
I remember this little black boy screaming at this mother he wanted , A " Gwape Dwink or a red pop.

I saw a black lady slap the shit out of her kid because he wouldn’t stop playing with the Skittles in the check out line of a grocery store. I thought about leaning in and whispering something so as to influence her from doing it again but I decided against it.
