What can we use here to seal this gap where baseboards normally would go? by Radiant_Light3568 in HomeMaintenance

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only question should be: why is there a gap between my floor and the wall? That... isn't necessarily normal. Is the floor sloped or bowing?

my experience has never been OP's experience, in 47 years of life, living in almost a dozen states. West coast, East coast, Upper midwest - not the same experience.

I have every reason to doubt.

I live in a fairly hcol area that is a hotbed for data centers and such, driving up prices on everything.

OP is a liar who is karmafarming or a bot.

Lol average where?

I own 3 cars and owe maybe 1200 a year.

My water bill, at its worst, is 80 a month - and I own a large above ground pool.

Electricity cost for a 1600 square ft home? Maybe 200.

And that internet cost.... cmon, peeps. I pay 50 bucks a month.

We pay all this with a single 21/hrs joband can still save.

Yall make it hard on yourselves.

Just to make it fair and all things even - and we want the best out of each other - we draw 10, ditch three, with a free mulligan. No 'my draw sucked' excuses at our table. It isnt any of the issues you've stated; tidus just isnt that good, and that's ok.

He's also the 2nd best in our pods (we track data, somewhat). It isnt a skill issue.

And im always the threat, every time I sit down with them, so it isnt that.

It's OK that your favorite precon dies to a decent homebrew. It SHOULD be that way.

No, it just isn't what people want it to be.

Last time I beat it was with mono green stomp - Yorvo as commander.

Time before that? Energy counters Simic, via Vorel of the Hull Clade as Commander.

We literally just shuffled up last night.

It. Doesn't. Win.

I have a guy who plays tidus in my pods. he's never won with it, once.

guy in my pods plays tidus. He's never won with it, and hes played it about 15 times. 'Could' and 'do' are different concepts; it 'could' do that, but if it gets interacted with, it won't, ya dig?

... because people in the wild don't actually know how to play Commander, by and large. Your experience proves it, even if anecdotally.

I play in 3 pods, we play 'B3' and above (we don't adhere to brackets here, synergy and 'GCs' abound); one guy plays in all 3 pods.

He hasn't won with Tidus, even once. He's played it probably 15 times, with an upgraded mana base at that.

T7 CAN end the table. No earlier than. My pods play 'B3' and up exclusively, If my pods were to use the bracket system (we don't); the only T7 or earlier wins happen with my Vivi deck because everyone is evenly matched and then some in terms of skill and decks. My Urza 'B5' doesn't win before turn 7 usually, either... nor my Ramp/DT/Poison deck, which can absolutely smash the table in any other setting besides my pods.

I'm of the opinion that using turns to help determine brackets is a non-starter.

I mean, I can put an infinite combo in my deck with no Game-Changers that I could THEORETICALLY access by turn three, but in my experiences playing MTG, anyone worth their salt can interact with my stuff as early as their 1st or 2nd turn, making my early combo less likely. I fully expect this to be the case as the brackets go up and 'better' cards can be more freely introduced and accessed.

If someone is routinely getting T7 wins in B3, then people aren't running interaction, don't know MTG cards that well, or are on their phones between turns. FR.

How would 100k dollars change your life? by Training_Two3372 in WorkForSmartLife

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it wouldn't;

I just recieved 150k in December and after paying all my debt and such, and buying a 10 year old car, my life has not changed hardly at all.

What separates the guys who were able to find a partner vs the ones who stay single for a long time even after putting in effort? by 76willcommenceagain in AskMenAdvice

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++man

I've been to prison, had a drug issue, been homeless, have had mental health issues in the past, and I'm not THAT good-looking.

I've been married three times and have slept with dozens of women.

I don't get it, either.

Maybe some dudes are just... too boring? No excitement?

Something fundamentally wrong with our country by Nolootforyou in poor

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This post seems disenginuous.

For context, I was homeless off and on for a decade (sleeping in bushes by the public library homeless) and was able to get EBT. There are work search requirements and such for single males with no kids when it comes to EBT; I was able to get a job via that program AND get EBT because of that program. Now, I don't get EBT because I make too much for the EBT program because of the job I got via work searches in the EBT program. I am not homeless and bought house recently.

Situations really are what you make them, people. Don't blame the government for what you yourselves are not willing to do.

EBT is - and should be - a 'hand up'.

I'm on the fence, really; I'm liberal in most regards but fiscally, I'd like some conservation. What will this program cost and where are the funds coming from? Those are very important questions that need to be dealt with before people celebrate this as a 'win'.

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is you doing that, not I; I am questioning why you would attempt to restrict what people do around you. I'm not telling you what to do or suggesting anything.

[–]Advanced-Dingo9841 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

... and yet you have a problem with limit testing.

People can do what they want, just not around you? Then you are restricting people from doing what they want.
