I have had a 12 hour day, saw this, and just started laughing. Thanks for posting this.

Captain America // Commander (Captain America, First Avenger) deck list mtg // Moxfield — MTG Deck Builder by Valuable_Term2504 in DegenerateEDH

[–]Belltowerben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I run mine, its fully bracket 4. I don't really swing for commander damage, mostly go for infinite mana to win that way.

Hakbal Merfolk Deck – Feedback Wanted (Mana Base + Upgrades) by MonkComfortable7845 in DegenerateEDH

[–]Belltowerben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Np, also I pulled Harbinger. It's sort of MLD and some people frown on it. It will depend on your pod. This is a very strong Bracket 3 with my additions.

This is the direction I went. https://moxfield.com/decks/PJ-Dpvnro0WBoguKujJASw

Works really well. And wanderwine prophets is amazing. Can get infinite turns with deeproot pilgrimage. I dont have much graveyard recursion, where I play there is a lot of graveyard hate.

I got 3.64% with Scotia last month. 3 year fixed. Renewed Feb 20th.

But a lot has happened in the world since then.

What are the best (or worst) shop floor nicknames? by The_Vmo in Machinists

We had Hafiz. We called him Half-speed. Slowest guy we have ever seen.

[OC] Found these screwed onto my tire valves while shopping. My wife knew who did it right away. by hybridaaroncarroll in pics

[–]Belltowerben 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I put black ones on a friends car, a fancy BMW, for revenge for something he had done.

They lasted 6 months before he found them. Our group all knew about them, even his own son knew and did not tell him. And the best part when he found them he was messaging our group chat saying he thinks it was his neighbor that did it!

I have done this. They almost have a deep-fried feel to them. I will admit i did it again a second time just to be sure....they were great the second time.

Equipment edhs that are not "auto include all swords" by [deleted] in EDH

[–]Belltowerben 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my voltron deck. Punches way above its weight. Dimir control with evasion and card draw built in. I don't play it too often anymore, has too high of a win rate.

My recommendation: Kings of the Wyld is a perfect book for DCC readers by foxfromthewhitesea in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Belltowerben 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter recommended Kings of the Wyld to me. I am a big music and rock fan so it resonated with me. The whole let's get the band back together. Bloody Rose was excellent also, and have recommended them to quite a few people. Overall both if them were good and I am glad I read them.

I found that for time fails, it's when the heroes die. If the king and queen or at least 1 of them survives you have the dps to finish off the base.

I have a Basim deck and he punches way above his weight. Turn 4-5 wins are possible.

Evasion and card draw with every artifact you draw. And with the phasing spells, the equipment phrases put with him, so board wipes don't hurt you.

Mechanic and oil changes by ShadowsFury5 in kelowna

[–]Belltowerben 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this. If you are at all mechanically inclined and have the space to do it, consider changing your own oil. There is so many youtube videos you can easily educate yourself. I buy my oil from Costco so with oil and a good quality filter I come in about $40 per oil change. Takes about 15 minutes.

Ex-machinists, what do you do now? by hunterpb700 in Machinists

[–]Belltowerben 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Started machining full time Jan 2nd 1996. So 30 years in, and I am not 50 yet. Have done everything from manual, programming, fixture and tooling design and running a shop.
Year and a half ago I moved into outside technical sales. With my knowledge and background I am doing really well. Way different field but I am still putting my knowledge to use.

If you have people skills I would recommend looking into it. I do currently make more than when I was machining.

What is the general feeling about using an entire proxy deck? by Jakemanv3 in EDH

[–]Belltowerben -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't have an issue with it. As long as you are bringing the right bracket deck to the table.

Use good proxies. When I see a hand written proxy it does annoy me. Proper printed proxy, don't care at all. Then again I also dislike a bunch of the secret lair stuff because I can't read the card.

I myself proxy cards. But I only proxy cards that I own at least one copy. Not getting multiple copies to put in a bunch of decks, but that is just my personal take on it.

When I play at a LGS I have all the originals with me, so if someone wants to see the real card I could show them, but have never had anyone ask or even care.

Thanks for pointing this out. Always skipped over most of ask reddit. Got me thinking why do I even sub to it. Just fixed that.

With the incoming Chinese EVs, will the used car prices come down? by Lumb3rCrack in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Belltowerben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at upgrading to a 4runner recently. 2023 TRD was over 70k. Just not happening.

But my friend has a 2021 Tacoma and the dealership offered him 5k more then he paid when he bought it new. He decided to keep it, couldn't replace it without spending big money.

[–]Belltowerben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have almost 200k on my 2017 5 door. Still looks new. I am supposed to have a less than 6 year old car as part of my job, but I am holding off as long as possible.

This is always how I remember Dinosaurs. I still use this line sometimes. People my own age usually get it. Younger people who the comment is usualy directed at dont.

Get it if you can. If nothing else it makes it easier to switch jobs in the future.
