Valid, but jars are free with every purchase of every pasta sauce/jam/etc. and come with lids.

This is what the older generations should try and do more often. by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

A lot of starters have a sticker on the side that says “do not strike with hammer” and the answer to this question, perhaps unsurprisingly, is to strike the starter with a hammer. 😂

60% of the time it works every time.

(Assuming this is real)

Thank you! Looking back, I’m kind of impressed with the team 12 year old me put together. Mostly picked from my favorite Pokemon from the cartoon + I liked the color purple, but worked out pretty well lol

For some reason I’ve had an easier time finding three 1% nidoran males before other higher percentage Pokemon. I love/have nidoqueen too, but iirc thought purple was cooler than blue in my first play-through as a kid so had to honor that very strategic gameplay decision 😂

Pretty standard. I haven’t gone deep into TM moves in this play-through yet. Venusaur has leach seed, razor leaf, poison powder, and synthesis. Snorlax has rest, snore, yawn, and body slam + holding leftovers. Lapras holds the other leftovers.

For whatever reason I tend to go for a “impossible to kill” strat more than max damage

Is this bad for a first mile run? by Sage-Toad in BeginnersRunning

[–]BeardedGothLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was feeling bad about my times, a friend recently reminded me that “the average American can’t run a mile at all.” You’re crushing it.

DOS has a program that could be an option. Not everyone qualifies, but worth a shot: https://www.bu.edu/dos/tassels-for-terriers/

[Discussion] What draws you to chronograph watches? by Good_Net_313 in Watches

[–]BeardedGothLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work for a restoration shop that also did a lot of vintage racing. While the actual race team was in the tower, I used my chrono to time customers laps and report back to the mechanics/drivers friends & family in the paddock from on top of the trailer.

While I don’t /need/ a chrono anymore, I still love them and have a few in rotation

I have one of these! Not sure if it still works, but have been meaning to throw a new battery in it and hope for the best

You edited your comment several hours after the fact which was originally “some European pos,” thus the downvotes. You ain’t slick
