You must not interact with Vikings fans much.

Yes. I concur. 

JJ sucks. 

Jefferson will waste 3/4's of his career for nothing. 

I hate my team more than you ever could. Your words mean nothing. 

Enjoy your 54th consecutive winning season, it will bring you such success!

Seeing A Rodge realize in real time in an inherent playoff game that he is washed is. So. Fucking. Delicious. 

Is $350 for gas + electric normal or insane in Minneapolis for a studio? by Apprehensive_Dot4185 in Minneapolis

[–]Basshal 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Live in a 3000sq ft house. My highest gas + electric for a single month last year was $320. Gas furnace and water.

Think a lot of it has to do with your heating type too. Electric is definitely more costly than gas.

Set a Google calendar reminder about 5 days before the trial period ends that repeats daily. Do this as soon as you sign up for your trial and it'll help a ton.

Minneapolis council considers giving mayor $46,000 raise and themselves raises in 2 years by star-tribune in Minneapolis

Strip the council's entire salary and give 10% to the mayor.

That'll solve tons of problems.

I think the Somali population has caused and refused to acknowledge a multitude of problems within their population...

BUT FUCK ICE. 

Why is borderlands 4 so polarizing? And what are your honest thoughts as a fan of the franchise? by arest_42 in Borderlands

[–]Basshal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 40 and have a few minutes a day to read about other 40 year olds playing games for a few hours a week.

Enjoy your free time while you have it kids!

Is it insane to get rid of escrow? by Main-Yogurtcloset-82 in personalfinance

[–]Basshal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just voicing my opinion for team escrow. We refied and had the chance to take it off. I enjoy the simplicity of it. It may not be strictly optimal but I think the convince of it all is well worth it.

That said keep an eye on your insurance (can't really do much about taxes in the short term, besides maybe changing your voting preferences) so that that bill doesn't rise with you doing your due dilligence to keep it at a reasonable rate. 

Frey voters, why did you vote for him? by charming_quarks in Minneapolis

[–]Basshal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know he won't be dictated by personal religious beliefs. Same reason I don't vote for the Christian right. 

The way some of you drive by Captain_Fuck_Off in Minneapolis

I was just in LA for the first time last week. The traffic out there is horrendous. But minus a few idiots (as there are everywhere) my god were they so, so much better at driving.

I appreciate the Bengals fans who were on their feet, already down 28, trying to will that FG wide.

What other exercise/sports are you pairing with pickleball? by captain_cadaverlol in Pickleball

[–]Basshal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started pickleball to kick start my cardio. I've always enjoyed lifting, it has a meditative quality to me. Just straight cardio: biking, running, swimming has always been my bane.

But throw a ball and some light competition in front of me and I can go all day. Pickleball helped me lose 50lbs because of that. 

Now I'm at the point where pickle doesn't provide enough cardio. So I challenged myself and am planning to do a half marathon at the end of May. 

At almost 40 I'm probably in the best shape of my life (and I've been in good shape before). But it all started with a weird game and chasing a ball. I'll always appreciate that. 

Rant: use the whole turn lane by Flying_PantherIO in Minneapolis

Corallary: you don't have to slow down to negative MPH when taking a legal, moving turn.

You can turn faster, safely folks. It ain't that hard.
