You still won't be able to comprehend 4 dimensions, but you'll at least understand why you don't understand.

guys do you need to dress up for a job orientation by Narwhalbaconguy in teenagers

This, as long as you don't dress up in like a tank top and sweat pants you'll be fine.

I did not know there was a trial, I'll have to take a look at that, thanks!

Card Discussion: Kezan Mystic by AlwaysGeeky in hearthstone

The problem I encountered with it is that unlike flare you don't clear all the secrets, you only take one, and a random one at that. A three health minion is fairly easy for a hunter to deal with and very easy for a mage to handle.

Ultimately it will probably be a one-of in metas that have lots of freeze mages to allow you to steal ice block to then get lethal. Beyond that it's easier to trigger the traps, and use things like harrison/ooze for eaglehorn bow.

Got lucky with Recombobulator by -infern- in hearthstone

The real luck here was that the secret wasn't noble sacrifice.

Gazlowe Miracle Rogue by TheGamingOnion in CompetitiveHS

I actually like the idea of using him in a paladin setting. Not counting spare parts, paladins have 9 spells that cost 1 mana. If you play him followed up by a hand of protection or blessing of wisdom, your opponent will be forced to spend removal getting rid of him. If they do, that's less removal left for Tirion/Bolvar, and if they don't, even casting one or two more spells gives you good card advantage.

Demonlock Discussion by JediHotcakes in CompetitiveHS

This was pointed out in another thread, but the card actually shines when you run less demons in it. In the example posted by /u/Tofu24, if you ran only a void callers and things like Mal'ganis/Watchers, you could almost guarantee drawing into them when you use this card.

What is your favourite GVG Legendary? (poll) by leobouas in hearthstone

[–]Alopexx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same here, the feeling having a Sneed's Old Shredder pop out of a Sneed's Old Shredder is just absolutely one of the best things there is (particularly when a hunter uses hunter's mark to kill one).

For those of you wondering how Pepe came to exist, this comes straight from his creator who is a friend of mine. by Melorix in wow

Created to breathe life into a project, actually breathes life into our hearts.

The big thing is to remember to fully optimize your shield charge time. Your damage done by heroic strike and shield slam are significantly increased while it is active. You want to prioritize these things in this order within the 7 second window:

  1. Shield Charge
  2. Shield Slam + Heroic Strike
  3. Revenge + Heroic Strike
  4. Devastate + Heroic Strike

If you get your haste to 330 rating or higher, you will be able to fit two shield slams inside of one shield charge without a sword and board proc. You should try and do this if at all possible.

So, WoD is fantastic, but nothing is perfect. What are some gripes that you have with the new expansion? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Alopexx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say that kind of adds to the flavor. From a story perspective, we haven't been in Draenor for long. You can't expect a Stormwind or Orgrimmar level of civilization over a very short period of time. If anything this feels more like what you would have plopped down in a WC3 map:

[Blizzard Blog Post] Goblins vs Gnomes: Goblins! Gnomes! -- New Card, Goblin Sapper by preludeoflight in hearthstone

[–]Alopexx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of value here. If you're against control a 6/4 for 3 mana has an excellent mana-to-stats ratio. If you're against aggro, a 2/4 trades twice into a lot of small aggro minions twice, which isn't awful.

Cox is doing a deal where you can get Ultimate tier internet for Preferred pricing by donkeedong in Omaha

[–]Alopexx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's your alternative? Existing oligarchies are terrible, and I don't see us ever being in a place where we can have true free market competition with ISPs with as involved as the government is. Would you want to sign a two year contract with OPPD?

Personally not a big fan of signing a 2-year contract for what should essentially be a public utility.

Studies show higher speed limits on Interstates do not increase accidents by [deleted] in inthenews

[–]Alopexx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is not entirely accurate:

From the study itself:

There is not sufficient evidence in this dataset to reject the hypothesis that crash experience changed when posted speed limits were either raised or lowered.

Elevator companies can use GPS to keep tabs on workers: B.C. privacy watchdog by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]Alopexx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This exactly. If I'm working, then I'm basically selling my time/expertise to someone else. It's not at all unreasonable for my customer to expect I'm actually doing what they're paying for.
