  • You can buy like $50 kits or go on Craigslist and look for someone selling their impulse bought gear.

    Add in a license fee and even then it’s not too bad for time killing hobby.

    I think when I first got into it I was put off thinking I’d need like the finest $3k in orvis gear and I’d need to buy $10 flies at my local shops.

    Like there’s a weird bougie-classist feeling I think a lot of people have which turns them off of trying to get into the sport.






  • Checkout tabletop simulator there’s a ton of different games in the workshop.

    I think my friend group has the most fun turning games we know into absurd games. Like in uno, we’d turn on all the bullshit settings on so people’s hands are being swapped left and right while other people are picking up 50 cards.

    I’m partial to pretending I’m a less pos version of Steve Harvey on Family Feud. You get to ham it up when someone replies with an answer that obviously is going to have sexual answers.

    Tabletop Simulator has like real board games too but I can’t get my friends to read any type of game rules so that’s when I give up and start doing stupid shit

    And yeah we use discord to talk






  • It always blows my mind that we’re such a car centric hellhole but when I was in college living in an apartment I’d have to sneak to work on my car because there wasn’t any DIY garages and it was against lease terms to work on cars on the property.

    I’d have to wait until 5/6 at night right before it got dark and rush to change my oil or brakes before it got too dark to see.

    These days I give my younger coworkers the pin and 24/7 access to my garages if they want to work on their cars or any projects really.
