Not a fan either. I do like “Brilliant Disguise” but that’s about it. There were a few of his older songs I liked but once Born in the USA was released, they played all his stuff to death. I can’t.

Trivia: Who jumped on stage in 1984 with Springsteen, as an adoring fan ( Staged set-up)) only to become a soap star?

Isnt there like alot of vegan fixed gear stuff in Portland tho? Its suppouse to be chill and people reading old books on the grass with old denim

I suppose that's one take on it. If you take one non biased look at the downtown area, and discover who the culprits were to bring it to its current state, I'd venture a strong bet you wouldn't use the same words to describe it.

I hate going in for service and getting a loaner. I forget that the normal shifters are different than mine. I throw the shifter to the left and up for reverse only to realize I am now in manual sport drive. At least today no one was watching. And yes, I realized before I went forward.

I thought this was common knowledge but maybe that's because I've seen the MTV music video like a thousand times.

I can't be the only one. It's interesting how most men give zero attention to their living space(s).

Oh yes! I find the enrichment and warmth of my living space to be of high importance. I'm not a 20 year old anywhere……where a mattress/box spring on the floor, a folding table and chairs masquerading as a dinner table and posters of athletes on the wall will suffice. I like to walk in and feel that coziness that comes with a nicely decorated place that has layers and character (…and doesn't smell like a bunch of sweaty jocks live there. Lol!).

I get it. There’s nothing wrong with taking pride in your place and decorating. It’s just not common with men in my experience. Even my ex who was crazy OCD clean and neat had ZERO decorative flair. Just please tell me your comforter and throw pillows aren’t girlie prints and fluff. Even I stay away from flowers and stuff and go for color block and geometric type stuff.

Actually it's a nautical theme. Prior to moving to traditional nautical colors and custom wall art, I was stuck on dark colors (…mostly black/browns/earth tones). I forced myself to go lighter. White admittedly really messes with my OCD, but it's working thus far.

The two wall art photos are what a buddy custom made for me. The world map is in my living room area and the nautical compass is in my bedroom. The bedroom photo was taken as I started making the transition to a more nautical themed bedroom.

Nice. I would lose the white and put some other solid color. The white would push me over the edge. Maybe a nice blue to go with the nautical. But if it works for you, it’s all good. Love the kitchen

Thankfully it's only me, otherwise the white wouldn't work. When the ladies visit, I keep them off the white.

Ain't nothing wrong with a man having a taste for beauty in his surroundings. Or for showing any visitors to his abode that he's upgraded from the days of stanky dorms and frat houses.

Although I think we should claim some credit for steering Sedan_Clan away from that ugly ass G82. Having that in garage would've completely undone all that hard design work
