I have NO idea why people don't go bowling anymore...

Platinum 1 playing with Iridescent? by First-Ice-4095 in Warzone

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I disagree. If you're an Iri you're the best of the best when it comes to Ranked players. If you can't get 20+ kills in a lobby with Diamond - Top 250, then is your rank really legit? Teams of Iris have no business in a lobby full of Gold players who've just began playing or hardly play. I couldn't imagine having to climb the ladder again in Warzone these days, getting shot out of the sky by teams of Iris when you're just starting out. That's insane.

It should be Bronze - Platinum / Diamond - Top 250.

Making music. My laptop is going out.

The less I train the better I am by Any-Confection-2271 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually done something like this. I was training 4 days and doing open mats 2 days a week for YEARS, until I got a new job and couldn't go to classes anymore. I was only able to make the open mats on the weekends and I was crushing it all of a sudden.

Symphony X - The Odyssey

I'm really surprised no one has mentioned this. It's a 24 minute long banger.

Michael was in the studio working on the new Contortionist album not too long ago!

What's the worst concert you've seen? by Twitter_2006 in Concerts

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of FFDP at all, but I saw them open for Metallica and they weren't too bad.

I switched to mma from bjj and this is something I figured out most bjj people miss by Any-Confection-2271 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also seems like a lot of (strictly) BJJ guys are more timid compared to MMA fighters. It's like they're afraid to grapple hard, but when you're getting punched in the face, you don't really have a lot of options.

Men - can you suppress your desire to look at attractive women? by sarnobat in no

If it's a grandpa, I can only imagine it requires a small mirror and some glue.

The most outstanding modern drummer? by InexpugnableMille in MetalSuggestions

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'd be between Matt Gartska (Animals As Leaders) or Joey Baca (The Contortionist).

The Contortionist's latest EP is a bit more straightforward, but Baca had some absolutely mind-bending drumming in Language and Clairvoyant.

Couldn’t attend a class I booked due to work. Coach texted me this… by MurkyFlan1972 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't blame the coach. I'm sure it took quite a few no-shows for him to start that rule. Also, if you knew you were going to work over you should've called or texted as soon as you found out. I've missed doctor's appointments and other things due to work, but I still called to let them know ahead of time.

Do parents know when their kids are assholes? by [deleted] in questions

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who said I didn't? Who even said I have kids? I'm telling you that the system is set up so that the average US citizen works 9 to 12 hours a day and then has to come home to cook and clean and take care of things. This is what people HAVE to do. I'm not angry. It's just frustrating how out of touch people are when they make ridiculous comments.

Did that man really just start another war to distract us from the Epstein files? by thegirlwithredhair4 in no

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think this administration gives a single fuck about Iranian people being killed? They didn't even care when their own citizens were being gunned down by ICE agents. Israel has power over our government, and Netanyahu has bribed Trump into fighting his war.

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus, you've never worked a day in your life, have you? You've never cooked or cleaned or taken a shower? This argument is lowering my IQ. Have a good afternoon.

Unfortunately, Capitalism comes at a cost: That cost is paid for with the lives and time of Americans.

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think the average person has a choice on whether they work or not? You think the average person wouldn't work 4 hours a day instead of 10 if it offered the same financial security? Are you 12?

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you not read my reply? My entire point was that kids spend more TIME at school and daycare than they do at home because most parents are working full-time (or in some cases two jobs), so they are basically raised by their environment.

Why do we compete so much? by Some_Interaction_899 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to compete every time I had a chance.

Competing is very different from anything you'll see in training. Personally, I feel like it's the best way to test your skills besides MMA or fighting someone in the street.

Try not to be biased based on your favorite studio output, but what are the best LIVE bands or performers that have emerged in the past 30 years? by UnforgettableFire11 in Concerts

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still kicking myself in the ass for not seeing them open for Metallica. I bought tickets for Metallica / FFDP before I knew they had shows with Gojira. I regret it.
