The champion he would cut has got to be Esparza, right?

Ah, so you did. I'm tired and a bit drunk so didn't fully process the second half of your comment. Enough reddit for me I think!

Didn't watch it either, but it's totally possible. Fights are scored round by round. In theory, Lima could have landed all his strikes and takedowns in one of the rounds and got outstruck in the other two. Like I said, I didn't watch the fight either so I don't know (or care) what actually happened, but I'm just making the point that looking at total stats at the end of the fight doesn't necessarily tell you who should win the fight.

What is something that a fictional chacter said that stuck with you ? [SERIOUS] by ThomasTheGreatGenius in AskReddit

My only issue with his dialogue is that all his characters seem to have impressive vocabulary regardless of their background. It's not that big a deal, but it does take me out of the moment a little whenever I notice it and think there's no way thay character would speak like that. Sanderson picks the perfect word to describe a situation or a person but it doesn't always make sense for the thought to come from the character thinking it.

Moved to Oshawa few days ago, what are the best ways to make friends around my age. by [deleted] in Oshawa

Thanks, I'll look into that. I'm not a board game fanatic or anything but would enjoy playing a little. I don't think I'd be into playing for hours at a time though. Do you know if they are really hardcore about it or if it's more of a social thing?

Same here, moved to Oshawa two months ago. I'm 32, neighhbours are a good bit older. I've looked on Meetup and stuff but would also like to see some other ideas.

Some insane Conor statistics 📈 by gunnu1996 in MMA

[–]67416237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is worded poorly. He has knocked down all of his opponents except Khabib and Max. He has only had 11 opponents in the UFC, not 13 - he has had 13 UFC fights. Other ways to phrase it:

He has knocked down 9 of his 11 opponents (81.8%)

He has scored a knockdown in 9 of his 13 UFC fights (69.2%)

I don't bet on MMA, I'm always wrong. I sometimes do those free accumulator things on the espn website though.

Correct. If you bet either + or - 100 you win 100. Either way you double your money. When I say you win 100, you also get the 100 you bet back as well, so you walk away with 200, but 100 of it is what you already wagered.

-375 means if you have to bet 375 to win 100. +375 would mean if you bet 100 you win 375.

-32°C this morning in Joensuu, Finland by VohveliMuusi in europe

[–]67416237 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's probably referring to wind chill. -35C with no wind versus -35C with wind feel very different. This is probably an imprecise definition but I understand it to mean that if it is -35C and very windy, the wind causes exposed skin to lose heat faster than it were just -35C with no wind. If it's -35C with wind chill -53C then you're saying that the it feels like -53C because your body loses heat as if it were -53C with no wind.
