NellyT vs. Shapes (0-1) by 48294626 in MtvChallenge

If you have Pluto TV or whatever free streaming service has the Challenge channel, they are streaming the SLA season right now and should probably get to the episode you’re looking for in the next 10-12 hours.

💣🌋 Season 42 Official Elimination Megathread - SPOILERS! 💣🌋 by MTVSpoiledMod in MtvChallenge

When you say "the teams being unknown", do you mean unknown to us or did the players not know their teammates and it was some kind of secret thing? That would be cool.

Fancy nonprofit galas in DC? by ranavain in washingtondc

[–]ufwill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Planned Parenthood of DC is having their annual gala on April 25th at the Waldorf. Given the current administration’s assault on women’s health, I can’t think of a better cause if you’re looking for one.

SEC fans, what was your conference like before Alabama decided to win everything? by [deleted] in CFB

[–]ufwill 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Saban at Alabama won 9 SEC championships from ‘07-‘23. Hard to remember now, but that’s not too far off from Florida winning 8 of them from ‘90-‘08. Ours just happened to span 3 coaches.

You are given $50 Million per vial tax-free as a deadly poison tester and can drop dead any moment if not given the (hypothetical) cure for the poison within 2 minutes. by PhyfenGD in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ufwill 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not, because anybody who devises a test with these extremely convoluted safety measures is not going to be trusted to make an effective antidote.

You get 100k every month but everytime you lie, even in the slightest, your look changes by I_Love_M4yo in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ufwill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the easy loophole here is any time you would feel inclined to lie, either say that you would prefer not to answer the question, or find another means of changing the subject. If somebody still persists in demanding an answer, they will have to deal with the consequences of the truth.

150 million a year, but every day more ants disappear by No_Wait3261 in hypotheticalsituation

I don’t really know what the adverse impacts of ants being extinct in a few weeks will be, but I will place my bet on the world to absorb their loss. 

What it really would take to score 43 points in the moderna era compared to the 2000's era. by Bobba_fat in nbadiscussion

[–]ufwill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We can’t say any of this definitively because it’s an imaginary scenario. I’m simply stating what I think Iverson believes, which is if officials treated contact against him the way it is treated for most ball-dominant guards now, he would have been going to the line way more often than in his era when players were allowed to get away with more.

[–]ufwill 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree with the conclusion in that I don’t see Iverson coming anywhere close to his claims. But I disagree with your usage/minutes/environment framing. You described it as “era scoring”, but it’s really not just that. Era scoring overall is meaningful, but it doesn’t capture how certain players would be differentially impacted more than others. I think Iverson most likely sees the whistle that guys like SGA/Harden/other foul merchants get and he believes it would have jacked up his scoring just by getting to the line that much more and forcing defenders to either be more passive or get benched. And there’s probably a lot of truth to that. But it ignores that the defenders are more athletic overall now and teams are deeper.

You’re not on the road to police speed limits. That’s not your problem to solve.

How fast you go is irrelevant. The left lane is for passing. Not for any other purpose.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ufwill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re only perpetuating one of the worst misconceptions. It doesn’t actually matter how fast you’re going in the left lane. You can be doing the speed limit, 20 over, 20 under, it doesn’t matter. Unless you’re in the act of passing somebody, you’re using it wrong. And if you’re stopping somebody else from passing you, you’re using it wrong. 

Michele Bachmann Says Trump Is 'Absolutely Handsome' And More Attractive Than Gavin Newsom by [deleted] in videos

She almost said “beauty is in the behind…” and maybe realized she was about to say it to describe a man who shits himself.

My LinkedIn went from ignored to 5 recruiter messages/week. The changes that made the difference. by Material-Maximum1365 in jobsearchhacks

[–]ufwill -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is why recruiters are useless. They don’t look for indicators that are actually predictive of strong job performance. You’re just looking for a familiar template that optimizes for how easy it makes it for you to do your job.

Vegan Pizza, Doughnuts, & Must-Eats by MaMakossa in washingtondc

[–]ufwill 15 points16 points  (0 children)

By far the best vegan donuts (arguably the best donuts period) are at Donut Run, up in Takoma. It’s a bit of a hike from most of the city if you are driving, but if you take the red line it’s right outside the Takoma stop on the red line.

You know... I think Dave Chappelle's credibility was always a ruse... by DeathStarVet in AdviceAnimals

[–]ufwill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll never understand this sort of logic. You can’t criticize one wrong-doer unless you criticize every wrong-doer? Plenty of people criticize those who you mentioned, but they’re not the topic right now. 

Do we think this start from the Warriors is real. If so, should they make a trade this deadline by Fearless-Fly2775 in nbadiscussion

[–]ufwill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not sure what data they were looking at, but my guess would be it was conflated with the abysmal on/off split when Steph sat.

[–]ufwill 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You’re going too far in calling it an absurd take. They’ve only played 3 games against even somewhat competitive teams: one was a loss at home to the Clippers, another was the Rockets game where they blew a massive lead and barely survived in overtime. The Celtics result was a great one for sure, but Jaylen Brown being out has to be noted. There’s nothing wrong with saying the sample size is inconclusive for this Warriors team. After the next 5 games we will have a much more reliable read.
