    I used to drive a 90s Miata that did it. The first warm days, I actually thought something was wrong with my car because the drivetrain felt weird. I was pulling engine codes and whatnot trying to figure it out before I realized.




  • Every gun in a movie has to have metallic click clack noises so you know there’s a gun involved. A gun with no hammer will be drawn and a hammer cocking noise will play. According to movies, guns a made with the tolerances of a fencepost and are all rattly. This is part of my larger complaint about foley in movies. It often sounds very separated from the action on screen. Not always. But sometimes it sounds like the leather and metal sounds of the cool hero character are as loud as the vocals and have perfect clarity.




  • I don’t necessarily mean more maintenance as in more washing/conditioning. I mean that you have to more carefully consider what your hair needs. You actually need to wash your hair more often with short hair since the grease has less room to spread out. When I was growing my hair out, I knew I didn’t want to look like the long-haired metal-head with a big frizzy mess. I gradually started washing it less and conditioning it more. Now I don’t condition but I oil it after washing. That seems to keep the split ends at bay and give some nice locks without too much greasiness. If I still washed it every time I showered like I did with short hair, it would look like brittle shit.
