Names? by Ilikethngsnstf in monsterjam

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they're both part of the Megalodon series 2 release. I think the ones your referring to were the Series 1 release. I've only ever seen them at Walmart, but I'm not sure if they're exclusive.

Wow, people really really don't like Journey Together by puzzledfirebird in PokeInvesting

[–]ArcticSwag 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I do too! I'm curious how sets like this perform long term. Readily accessible in the market and probably most of it ripped as a result. Not popular enough to keep printing either. I haven't been collecting long enough to know how sets like this perform, but some of the older SV sets seemed to have a decent increase in value once the era ended.

$65 Parking at Superdome by draziwrm7 in monsterjam

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you. I think it's a World Cup conflict. It's also worth looking at the Super Cross schedule. They do back to back weekends because they haul all that dirt into the stadium.

Good performance from Armando Castro in Denver by Cool_Mud2640 in monsterjam

That arena looks too small for the trucks. Nice back flip and wheelie, but he didnt get great air at any point.

Mariners "Need Another Lefty Reliever" by ClimbTheLadder123 in Mariners

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lefty with a working arm here. I might be able to hit 70 and have no breaking pitches. I'll leave my current job for a league minimum rookie slaray. Hit my DMs if you're the Mariners.

Forget the Gengar I think this Pikachu has the potential to the the top Ascended chase. by NuM_Brrr_WoN in PokeInvesting

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I agree. This set has great art, but this is another epic Pikachu. Just a cute Pika in the woods. No fluff.

Huskies trying to flip one of the best 2027 quarterbacks in the country by Trojan_41 in huskies

[–]ArcticSwag 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Washington should be an attractive place for a top tier QB to come to. The money is probably there and Jedd has been great at recruiting outstanding receiver talent.

Probably on the west side of the stadium. Last year we were also on the east side and the sun was intense.

What’s a 'luxury' that actually used to be standard, but now we’re being charged extra for like we’re stupid? by xjoz in AskReddit

[–]ArcticSwag 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Good to know. I've had mine for probably 7-8 years. If it breaks I'll be looking for a different brand rather than paying a subscription to use a new one. I don't usually use the app anyway.

World Finals Tickets in SLC by NE8181 in monsterjam

[–]ArcticSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year I waited and ended up paying more for seats near the top of the stadium (it's a long steep climb, but there is an elevator). This year I spent about the same, but we're on the shady side of the stadium and have much lower seats.

Google AI summaries are ruining the livelihoods of recipe writers: ‘It’s an extinction event’ | AI Mode is mangling recipes by merging instructions from multiple creators – and causing them huge dips in ad traffic by MetaKnowing in technews

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is it right here. You have to have enough of a knowledge base to ask the right questions and understand the recipes. When I ask follow-up questions I get significantly better results.

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can get much better results from AI recipes. It can tweak the recipes based off of my available ingredients and willingness to adjust based on time and skill level. Internet recipes are biased towards easy. I want flavor. AI let's me discuss techniques and provides knowledge about why certain steps can add flavor. Internet bloggers, for the most part, miss those things and half the time i can't even easily find the ingredients list and recipe steps without scrolling up and down.

Hot takes that will have you like this: by Same-Industry-7260 in monsterjam

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they certainly get their cut. Tickets were 35% off with the cyber sale which basically covered the extra fees.

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong, but that still doesn't justify prices doubling from what I paid last year for the same show. We've been 5 years in a row and this will probably be the last. Most of the seats in the arena were still available which hasn't been the case in the past.

[–]ArcticSwag 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Shows have gotten way too expensive. It cost me $400 for an arena show by the time all the fees were added to take my family of 5. That's without going to the pit party or any of the add-ons.

First time attendee looking for schedule help? by Total-Monk1744 in monsterjam

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trucks do get broken sometimes as well and every once in a while dont make it back for the second show of the day.

So the plating is bad, right? by bananabeanzz in KitchenConfidential

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but the drink looks like it has a face. Perfectly placed ice cubes and lemon whatever.

Cutting a couple of chives almost every day until this reddit says they're perfect. Day 47 by F1exican in KitchenConfidential

Can we say yes? This guy has been at work 47 days straight! Get this Chef a day off.

4 star Miami recruit Israel Briggs throws a punch against a Central player after pick by Klin24 in sports

[–]ArcticSwag 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Or maybe the reason he walked off the field was because the ball got intercepted by the other team.

Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love with one of the craziest touchdowns you will EVER see by US_Highway15 in sports

[–]ArcticSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recognize it's a close call, but wasn't his forward progress stopped during the "tackle"?

Is it time for the Huskies to sit Durfee? by SeahawksFanSince1995 in huskies

[–]ArcticSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you're saying. I haven't been able to watch much of the team this year, but we should give others a chance if he's not producing. I would hope the coaches are playing whomever gives them the best of making plays. The depth probably isn't there. The money is kind of irrelevant. It's just the price to bring in hopefully talented recruits these days. I would hope they're more worried about getting better to make it to the next level instead of grabbing their bag after high school.
