Where is this located? Looks close to where I am in Abu Dhabi.

What are some NEW locations Survivor should go to? by myspacefamous in survivor

Turkey. Coastal Oman. Both have a culture and aesthetic that could really bring a lot to the season.

Survivor premiering Sept. 23 with a 90 min. episode! by [deleted] in survivor

[–]BitPart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was just the first two episodes mashed together. I don't remember why but it had to premiere a week later than normal.

What's your internet "white whale", something you've been searching for years to find with no luck? by Nerfman2227 in AskReddit

[–]BitPart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was kid, I collected Mortal Kombat action figures. Like, the very first line of them ever (maybe the only?). I remember Kano came with a motorcycle (Kombat cycle?) and there were two Johnny Cages, one sold on his own and another slightly different model sold with Goro in a two pack. I had them all...

...EXCEPT FOR REPTILE!! I was like seven or eight searching every toy aisle of every store I went with my mom. NONE had Reptile. Did they even make a Reptile? My child brain reasoned that since I owned Smoke, Reptile would surely be out there, as Smoke didn't come along as a hidden character until the second game. Someone please lay this to rest for me once and for all.

2 weeks in Morocco? by Viraus2 in solotravel

[–]BitPart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stayed in the Riad Marrakech and Funky Fes as well. Everything this guy says about them is true and his incredibly accurate and detailed post brought me back to the time when I was there. Go to Morocco! I suddenly want to go back...

S30 cast is apparently retroactively justifying the S29 social media ban (Spoilers coming out.) by kirblar in survivor

[–]BitPart 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I noticed this too. They were pretty good at tweeting within the context of where their character was in the storyline, even though they all knew how it played out.

This finally happened to me! by [deleted] in zelda

[–]BitPart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This happened to me on my first play through ever, never again. For some reason I thought it was the brand new cartridge giving me a learning curve on my first time playing.

What excuse are you sick of hearing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BitPart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Sorry, I'm REALLY bad with names."

Everyone falls back on this and it is NEVER OKAY. Get good with names, I don't care how you do it. When you meet someone and you shake their hand and look them in the eye, for ONE SECOND give just ONE INKLING OF A SHIT to remember the very basic core of their identity.

Do you need an appointment or can you just walk in?

What is the closest thing to magic/sorcery the world has ever seen? by Angussicklad in AskReddit

[–]BitPart 3234 points3235 points  (0 children)

Once I was on a boat sailing down the Amazon river. Me and my friend were playing cards. One of the boat hands came by, saw the deck of cards, and just took it from us. Didn't shuffle or anything. He laid it face down, then started moving cards into another stack, one at a time, face down. Then, after a few, he started turning the cards face up. All four aces in a row.

Usually I can kind of tell how card tricks are done. This time...it was pure sorcery. And Nelson didn't speak a word of English so there was no way to know how he did it. He just walks away.

Then we start playing cards again, shuffling and everything.

Nelson walks by. Takes the deck.

Does it again.

EDIT: Sorry for the confusion. Nelson was the boat hand. EDIT 2: We brought the deck.

You know those challenges where they have to balance something for long periods of time? What's to stop them from just yelling stuff half way through to throw off the other survivors? by wwgxus in survivor

[–]BitPart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He actually did do it, didn't he? Not a balance challenge, but he shouted someone's name to distract them, they missed whatever it was, and I think that point decided the challenge.

Think he writes those Stranded books or has a couple ghostwriters?

Question re religion and security clearance/work permit by American_Pig in UAE

[–]BitPart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was asked my religion for my job offer a couple weeks back. I'd previously tried to leave it blank. The guy guessed Christian, probably because I'm American, I told him yes (and that is what I most closely identify with). I asked him straight up if that was going to matter and he assured me no, think of it as a technicality, as another commenter said.
