Horrible Evening

OMG OMG.

Here it is.

We had fights Saturday night right right? They are in Akron, which is about an hour and ten away. But we found out its 21 and over only, so Ken and Nicole can't go. So I wasn't going to go.

Well the guy putting on the fight is the guy I do side work for. He calls, and pleads for me to be their, because he was flying up from Georgia to put on the fights.

So I got yahoo directions to this club in Akron. The yahoo directions were WRONG, WRONG WRONG. They had the wrong exit number.

So I took the exit, directions said continue 12 miles. I got lost in the damn GHETTO of Chagrin for about an hour and a half. I was so angry. At one point, four people came up to the car at the intersection, and harassed me for weed. For whatever reason ( an Acura in the ghetto? ) they INSISTED on it, and would go away.

So, I was pissed, I knew I had missed half the fights, but I had no idea how to get there, so I had to go home. And decided not to go. Now, I'm 1.5 hours late already.

Guy calls again asking where I am at.

So Okay. I got new directions from mapquest, which were RIGHT! WOOT!

So I drive an hour and some out to Akron AGAIN, and I get to this club some 2.5 hours late. Get this? This club is DRESS SHOES ONLY. What kind of fight event doesn't allow sneakers? I told the guy. I WORK for the promoter of this show, and I'm supposed to be here. I'm a member of Team Griffonrawl. Bouncers didn't give two - seriously, he just mock me. So the bouncer has headset, right? He says 'Let me ask the manager'. Says NOTHING, looks at me and says 'Guess what? He said no.'

So I stand in the lobby of this club for 45 more minutes until the promoter was walking through and saw me. They still had to argue to get me in. Guy says 'Hey I'm just doing my job'.

GUESS WHAT? Fights are over. Stayed at the club and downed two long islands. So its time to leave.

The group splits up and most leave the lobby. I was told to follow the silver SUV. THERES FIVE SILVER SUV!?

So I followed the wrong SUV. Got lost in Akron now. Drive around for over an hour lost in Akron...I was so hardcore lost. Plus Akron has four-lane roads, that are not interstates throughout the town? THEY ARE ONE WAY! I didn't know, I was driving down a FOUR lane road, the WRONG way, with jail breath. OMG. Did like two U-turns, OMG! And I didn't understand why everyone was flashing their lights! No wonder- you've got to be kidding. One way roads are the stupidest idea come to pass. Ever see the movie with Chevy chase, where they drive around the london square like 5 times and can't get out?

Across all the bridges and ramps, I see the exit to go home. But I don't know how to get there! I also saw and adult bar in the distance.

So I decided, WHICHEVER ONE FIRST that I find, is where I go. Home, bar, or the restaurant I was supposed to meet the others. Please lord, deliver me unto the titty bar. Where some young girl will pretend I'm funny, attractive, and worth listening to. I got 140 bucks in my pocket that could be yours. I found the exit first. Sigh.

So I get home about 3 am and out almost 2 tanks of gas. I got to see half a fight on a small TV in the lobby. The next day, got hell from the woman. She had a 'horrible' night dancing, and its all my fault because I canceled plans. OMG OMG

I no longer consider myself a smart guy. Heh.

AHHHHHHHH! I know it's bad, but these stories always make me laugh. How the hell you always gettin yourself into this stuff?? But seriously, that does suck, I HATE the being lost feeling or being in an area you are extremely unfamiliar with. When we first moved here I got lost and was tryin to turn and get home and before I knew it I saw a sign that I was in a town I KNEW was 45 minutes away from where I wanted to be ARGH! And that was without 4 guys hasslin me for weed! All I can say is good job on a night well survived! HA HA.
oh oh yeah, we have a club that's dress shoes only. thing was though? Guys walkin in with dress shoes but the rattiest shirt and old jeans. whatwhat?

I'm not sure words can describe what you have experienced.

You can't even get any loving as consolation, since your girlfriend is pissed off at you too.

If I were you, I would go to some isolated open space and yell the F word as loud as I possibly could for as long as I could.

NICE, tara reid. although I heard she had her chest done and there was some pretty bad scarring left over. At least that's what they said when she accidentally dropped her top on the red carpet and didn't realize it until after photographers had gotten their photos.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
