Meze discontinued the 3 meter cable for the 99 Classics (original). Anyone have a good recommendation for a 3.5mm 3 meter/10ft cable? Not opposed to some jewelry. (self.HeadphoneAdvice) [Cables/Accessories]

Especially when it’s something you’ve put way too much energy into researching and can rip their argument to shreds, but they never present one other than “wrong”
Doip
Right? Half the time it’s “oh shit neat I didn’t know that” and the other half it’s “dawg I literally just looked this up for an hour last night and even before then I knew a lot about it, if you’re gonna say I’m wrong you better be ready with sources”
Doip
I dunno, I’m pretty damn autistic and my usual reaction is more of a “lmao no I’m right because I just researched this for an hour last night on top of all the previous times”. After that I’ll go for the checking to make sure I’m right just in case, because the only thing better than being right is learning more to be right more often.
Of course that leads into the NT reply of “you need to be able to admit when you’re wrong” but they only ever apply that when I’m demonstrably right with multiple sources
Doip
Exactly! It’s not that I need to be right, it’s that I am right. I’ve put way too much energy into researching things to be told I’m wrong about something I just verified earlier.
Their only comeback is “you need to be able to admit when you’re wrong” which… I do! It’s just such a rare occasion they just assume it never happens. Unlike them, I don’t speak on things I can’t at the very least have an educated guess on, and even then, why would I take criticism from someone who is actively okay with being wrong consistently?
Doip
Yeah, the whole witchy trend popping up since covid has made it a pretty obvious choice

Looks like that subreddit was right

Used to do 80 at like 2400 effortlessly. With a 4L60 it'll do like 75-77 so I'm okay with that. An 8HP would do 80 and oddly enough a 60/GV overdrive would be mathematically 2.29 but at the cost of no driveshaft

I had a "muscle" car with 2.29s. and a 3spd auto
Doip
I just did it to a Monza with a stock 350. Had 2.29s and 175/70R13s, now 4.10s on 255/60R15s
Miiiiiiiight need to swap out the TH350 now, 55 at 4k ish

Just saw the post. Whaaat the hell

Question! I just updated to iOS 27 last night and now the app has an AI prompt button under the text box? Whose idea was that
Doip
Oooo now mine has an AI prompt under the text box. Bad!!!
Doip
Physical buttons and how small it is with the light! Seems about perfect for going back to the pre-iPhone 4 era
Doip
original plz
Doip
It's remarkably good for that! Mine shifted beautifully for a car that dyno'd 59.97hp to the wheels and did 74 flat out on level ground.
I just realized I sound like the old guys at morning shows, oof

One time I had a crowd two rows deep, the only thing that pulled them away was a Spyker pulling in. Amazing how many people have stories about these (the men are the best, it's always sister/gf/aunt/etc.'s car, never theirs)
Doip
Oh my god I’m late as hell but dumb question. I used to have a 74 notch in white about 5 years ago, also with the super shorty e brake console and the red ghia interior. I’m shocked at how nice your dash and console are. How’s your headliner condition?
Including yours I’ve seen 5 total, two each of destroyed headliner perfect consoles and perfect headliner destroyed console (mine was destroyed, little old lady original owner’s elbow rested on it).
I don’t know if it still works but googling Petersen Mustang II should pull up photos of mine from when I posted it on BaT and Barnfinds.
People thought I was crazy asking 7 for a 6 option 4cyl/4spd car* but when I sold it for 4500 the guy sold it the next year for 7 lmao
*ghia interior, am only radio (had the 8 track philco, 74 only from a Lincoln but never did anything with it), side bumpers, bumper overriders, CA emissions, whitewalls
Incredible car, keep it going as long as you can, they’re finally getting respect… although the hecklers are half the fun of it. I had a supermodel tell me she respected me more when I had the II lmao

Have you seen the F50? It's missing a foot out of the middle and the front lip is massive

Even ignoring the 40pt, the 4 C500 Toyotas can be done effortlessly by the literal starter car.
“You’re wrong” just means one of us is getting an education shortly, best prepare yourself to tell me what’s right or be told what’s right.
