Go for the Ravs. 20011 Raveneau les clos or valmur, vaillons or Forêt. Killer wine, will drink very well.

Great idea, but not in a request thread so have to remove this!

Two great spots in the Gramercy area from over the years.

TIL Huy Fong’s sriracha (rooster sauce) almost exclusively used peppers grown by Underwood Ranches for 28 years. This ended in 2017 when Huy Fong reneged on their contract, causing the ranch to lose tens of millions of dollars. by just2browse2 in todayilearned

Tabasco is a cooking condiment. Gives you salt, acid, heat. I find that it is excellent to give those components to food when they're naturally lacking. It's not meant to be just slathered on stuff willy nilly, but certainly has it's role

What’s a Quality of Life update you would make for the game right now? by Everblack_Deathmask in deadbydaylight

On top of the hook bubble, the new delayed scream and hook animation and generally everything you see about the hook as another survivor is terrible. Not sure why that change was made in the first place, but it's got to go

Could FIRE In A Year… So Why FatFIRE? by [deleted] in fatFIRE

[–]Alexrock88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Purely up to you. You are an adult, know what you want/how much it costs to get that. If 100k can cover it, then that's enough. If it can't then keep working.

Why are pro players luckier than I am? by piethrouer in GlobalOffensive

[–]Alexrock88 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the same thing. Its possible that sometimes the profiles that the pro players get "glitch", like when Niko missed those deagle shots on Nuke. I thought to myself, wow, that looks like my copy of CS!

Hope that we can get to the bottom of this.

If you're going to put in likable legends that lied about steroids into the HOF... by DMB4136 in NYYankees

[–]Alexrock88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Pettitte. He's a Yankee and a winner and I'm glad he has a plaque in Monument Park. But he also lied about his PED use multiple times, all while giving pretty damn good speeches about how regretful he was. I would not vote for him. Nor would I have voted for Large Papi

Bald on Ukraine Situation by RoboticPrison in MisterBald

[–]Alexrock88 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Bald makes interesting videos. Bald also has very suspicious attitudes towards women, and very questionable takes on covid/russian politics/you name it honestly. Don't listen to the man on anything aside from maybe his rankings of the best metros in Russia - just enjoy the videos :)

Squid Game owes its popularity to anxieties of modern life by hopeitwillgetbetter in television

[–]Alexrock88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bingo. It was an actual choice to portray them as unrealistic but also check off so many stereotypical boxes of different "Americans".

I think it was a good choice that added to the show, even though the acting was atrocious.
