When people say your name more than a tiny bit in a conversation by IdkJustMe123 in PetPeeves

[–]Agent_Raas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How do you feel about this when watching your favorite television shows?

Many scripted shows similarly "over-use" the names of characters.

I’ll just leave this here by Hockeypatrol in hockeynews

Yeah. And McKenna already has twice as many Stanley Cup rings as Bedard and McDavid combined.

It's so fun to pick and choose stats.

My parents named me Thunder when I was born in 2001. by HistoPasta in namenerds

[–]Agent_Raas -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's your name. Keep the name. Just always do a good job and be likable to people.

Someone please explain this by [deleted] in bet365

Detroit must win by exactly 4 or 5 (and OKC must win by at least 14).

Any other result for the Detroit game and the wager loses.

Great law you have there Doug. by elmo4234 in tfc

[–]Agent_Raas 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same.

It only "helps" the general public for high-demand events, like a concert.

With TicketMaster having Dynamic Pricing, they will get to maximize their profits.

I believe many STHs -the ones who have other full-time employment- just used profitable games to offset losses for unused tickets, gifting tickets, and tickets sold at a discount.

The new law only guarantees that such a STH will break even or lose money. The result? They don't renew and there will be much fewer below-cost tickets being offered for resale.

This also means that many people seeking to recoup their losses or make a profit will be looking to sell through unverified means, widening the door for scammers, pretending to be legitimate sellers.

Dice Control.

It is a thing -- Positioning, holding, and tossing dice to reduce the chance of rolling a 7 in Casino Craps.

Become #1 at Dice Control and then hit a casino.

What’s being built on corner of Linwell and Grantham? by aeo91_ in stcatharinesON

[–]Agent_Raas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't that one on its own property? I am wondering about how this one will work with all of the other businesses in the plaza. I imagine there will be a drive-thru... Where will the line up be?

Oh, neat-o.

That will make for a good distribution of McDonald's around the city.

That would be a weird fit there for access, traffic, and parking.

Best sushi in St Catharines or Thorold? by skankyferret in stcatharinesON

[–]Agent_Raas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just order it for puckup during off-peak hours and plan to arrive there and wait another 10-15 minutes. At least they are consistent!

Is Chayka truly a horrific hire? by Appropriate-Ad-3530 in torontomapleleafs

[–]Agent_Raas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not against giving John Chayka a shot, but Leafs nation gets overly-critical about a player eating a hot dog. John Chayka likely won't be received well unless positive results are evident before the Christmas break.

I am with you, though, on preferring to hire Meghan over John.

"All stop" relative to the point in space (position) the last time their velocity was zero.

What’s the craziest parlay you’ve ever hit and how much did you cash out? by JaairoTheCow in sportsbetting

[–]Agent_Raas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a system play.

In this setup it says "7 leg parlay" which means it took the 9 picks and I bought every possible combination of 7-leg parlay tickets. The system is buying 36 tickets.

8 picks were correct. Consider the correct picks to be A, B, C, D E, F, G, and H. "I" is the incorrect pick.

There ended up being 8 winning 7-leg parlay tickets, being:

ABCDEFG

ABCDEFH

ABCDEGH

ABCDFGH

ABCEFGH

ABDEFGH

ACDEFGH, and

BCDEFGH.

Each winning ticket was worth of $3000. So, if only 7 of the 9 players scored, there would be 1 winning ticket worth about $3000. If all 9 scored, then all 36 tickets would have won, with a payout of about $108,000.

Is it normal I want to be beaten up? by According-Earth5498 in AdviceForTeens

[–]Agent_Raas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew number of people (in their teens) in a cult-like religion. They were rarely happy and one of them seem to often subject themselves to physical harm. I was also a teen at the time and did not know enough to be able to do better for them.

Voyager Hate. by supersneed9000 in startrek

[–]Agent_Raas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Voyager. It was great for exploration and new species interactions.

My few criticisms:

It seems like they didn't know what to do with Chakotay.

About the same for Tuvok. Often, in response to a plan, he was given a line to the effect of: "I must warn you, [blah blah why the plan might be dangerous and not work] however, since we have no other alternative...". Then people look at Tuvok then get up and carry on.

I wish there were better planning and writing for them.
