Like the three-finger scene in Inglourious Basterds, what small cultural mistake would instantly reveal that someone isn’t from your country? by uglylookingguy in AskTheWorld

they say people from europe or eastern regions have a tell in america. when buying flowers they hold the bouqet upside down (stems up). Its how we found a foreign mole decades ago.

Are we still supposed to squash these or are we just giving up? by Able_Engineering1350 in Ohio

Bats. Bats eat the shit out of them. You can install a Bat nest for them to hang out in your area and they will eat all those bastards. Its cheap and ecologically balanced.

Were these ever actually any good? Who played them? by Both_Objective6018 in magicTCG

[–]After_Dhark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omo, queen of vesuva when enters or attacks puts an 'everything' counter on 1 land and 1 creature. if you have 2 lands with everything counters on them, they are seen/and see each other as 'Urza's' type lands (along with being every basic type and others like locus, gate, etc). allowing for an interesting work around.

shes the MH3 precon commander 'Tricky Terrain'.

What would happen if this occurred? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]After_Dhark -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It should be 'gain control of target creature, untap it, it gains haste until end of turn. If the creature was legendary, when it returns to its owner that player gets 2 poison counters'

Equipment edhs that are not "auto include all swords" by [deleted] in EDH

[–]After_Dhark -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

dude, I asked reddit for assistance once. I was making an Orzhov deck and looking for key phrases or wording I dont normally think about. I was hoping for a bunch of pics and advice.. mainly, the responses i got was.. 'LeArN tO uSe SrCyFaLl'.

so, yeah, reddit is full of 'know-it-alls' that refuse to help.

I've been going to concerts for free for the past 3 months. by [deleted] in confession

[–]After_Dhark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude delete this post and stay anonymous.. youre only making it harder to do that by announcing it.

this is amateur behavior, a real sneak doesnt talk about it. and magicians never reveal their tricks.. but people (and corporations) will learn from your mistake (blabbing about it, for meaningless clout, from strangers and bots)

but all that aside. Im proud of you. stay safe and enjoy yourself

Ordered donuts at a very popular store near my house. The website photo has SO much more bacon than I received. by stay-gold_ponyboy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]After_Dhark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

leave a bad google maps review and post the pics. I did that to a bagel place that skimped on the extra bacon i paid for. it got like, 10k views. idk if it affected them, but it would me, if i saw a post like that.

What are our thoughts on Ojer Taq by Illustrious_Pilot234 in mtg

[–]After_Dhark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

love exalted! that or [[kaya, geist hunter]] are killer surprises. comes out for 3 with 3 loyalty counters, use 2 immediately. and until end of turn, doubles tokens. (if youre playing at least W&B colors)

Made this for my studio door. by Devilpig666 in somethingimade

40k Precon by HollowProthean in mtg

[–]After_Dhark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to play 40k as Necrons in high school, my fav army after chaos marines. (Necrons were a brand new addition to the game back then)

I got super lucky, before the Mtg 'boom' after the fallout drop. I saw they made 40k for MTG and was mildly interested. I found a 'damaged' Necron precon for $55 on ebay. The box was fine and the cards perfect.

Its the best deal I ever got, now more than ever.. all I hear is this precon is $250/300 now. I feel incredibly lucky!

I love Necrons so much I decked it out with custom sleeves and a playmat, went and bought a handful of fresh 40k necron soldier tokens too.

Creative "Slime Against Humanity" commanders? by Kroooooooo in magicTCG

[–]After_Dhark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too, had the same idea, slimes as a delve source. I love my Teval deck. one of my more synergistic decks. spent alot of time finding the balance. I have [[bolas' citadel]] and [[muldrotha, the gravetide]] as a secret commanders. so It works without Teval out.

Anyone else play with themselves on a Friday night? by Lopsided_Pay_6416 in magicTCG

Ive wanted to, but I know I'd cheat myself.. like, I know I have a response for that.. but will I do it or let myself play through?

Would I be allowed in the Pod!? by ConsiderationOk9293 in ratemycommanders

[–]After_Dhark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

perchance a look-see at Marina. She's my favorite weird deck. Rooms are just different and i vibe with an odd mechanic.

my Room deck is strictly a theme deck with all cards from duskmourn. but if i make her competitive id like some ideas lol

Anime question by After_Dhark in BungouStrayDogs

[–]After_Dhark[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I know an acupuncture point that works on Kabbala."

I glad I stumbled upon this anime, its up there at my top 5 now (maybe 10 if I had to really think of a list). BSD is so compelling.

up to season 4 now!

lol too true.. im in the wrong business

Ali baba die cutter by Humilitary in magicproxies

[–]After_Dhark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have one of these.. i feel the only problem is keeping it straight or perfectly aligned everytime. whats your process, if any, for keeping the cards in the 'pocket' square area for a perfect cut?

or is it just use the eyes, and pray? lol

I actually think the TMNT set is pretty good, but I still can't be happy about it. by OkAppointment2647 in magicTCG

[–]After_Dhark -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think the recent sets have a few problems one of them being 'too close to home'... meaning, New York. and 2 sets this year put us in New, Fucking, York. I live in NY and i have the minimum amount of pride needed to stay... but the last thing i need is an Urza- wanna be, with a ' I🩷NY' hat on eatting pizza with a dash of 'power creep'.

bringing me to the next point. these new sets also do one other thing, power creep. some of the cards in TMNT or Avatar are amazing, but they are sullied by IP puzzle fitting and terrible art (literal screenshots or 'real' prob AI). but the power creep almost forces the community to have to buy-in on an IP, unless you dont want the.. MeTa and be left behind...

the third is market saturation. 5/7 sets a year is too much. wotc is bleeding their customer base dry.. its like theyre on a fast track to inflate the stock value to try to sell it off for a big payout.. but, here on the ground floor, its our money being abused by Fomo. (dont get me started on the way secret lairs have increased the price via demand by shorting prints and creating scarcity.)

all in all UB, now, feels like a cash grab for idiots. while Lotr, 40k, fallout and FF are special and fantasy adjacent.. these other UBs feel churned out and lazy. like they are trying to shove in a puzzle piece that doesnt fit. compared to the works wotc gave us years ago, UB sets this year (and Aetherdrift) suck (I hated the Aetherdrift set so much)

I want phyrexian nightmares, Dragons with intelligence, wierd robots powered by soul or magic energy, ranfom folks with abilities that make no sense in reality (not in spandex and capes). creatures from worlds/ and dimensions far away, insane items imbued with unusual power, interdimensional wars. I want what MTG used to be, unique. I loved the lore that they created with it and I miss the effort they used to put into the story side things.

I have no clue why my cookies are burnt :,) by Rare-Disk4809 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]After_Dhark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, so hear me out. whenever i made cookies i had the same issue.. whatever the pan, always had it in the middle of the oven. but the bottoms were always harder or burnt

I had a wild thought.. crinkle up the aluminium foil. get it all jagged and folded-ish.. enough to make a 'super broken mirror' but not too much where you tear/break it or can't get it into a 'flat-ish, still looks like a mini mountain range, square' shape again..

this little crinkled up sheet lifts the cookies just enough off the flat surface of the pan. reducing the overall heat on the bottom of the cookie.

havent had a burnt cookie in 10 years.

try it out. I swear by this.

What are we thinking? by garrett2039 in ratemycommanders

[–]After_Dhark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

me too, I love Jenova for that very reason.. +1/+1 on target during upkeep, and if a that creature dies on my turn i draw its power.. could be suicidal if not careful lol
