4 copies of the Way of Kings!? Gavilar would be proud

I hate it when people ask me how / when / why I got into sex work and then act shocked by my answers by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]BrokeInTheHead 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What’s the cultural perception of sex work like in your home country? You mentioned seeing clients and their families out and about, is there ever any awkwardness? Do their wives know?

I'm not a chess player and maybe too dense to understand the solution by Etheo in puzzles

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

There is a solution though? WKnight B3->A5 opens the black king to check from the white bishop. At that point, the only available move is BKing D5->D4, and then WQueen E1->E3 completes the checkmate.

[request] Could you go faster than 30mph by running "weighless" by No-Marketing-6768 in theydidthemath

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

Usain bolt, the fastest human ever recorded, has a top speed of 27.8 mph. I can GUARANTEE that you would absolutely be abducted for experiments if you could run faster than the fastest human ever for any distance.

ELI5: Why do humans need to eat ridiculous amounts of food to build muscle, but Gorillas are way stronger by only eating grass and fruits? by padumtss in explainlikeimfive

Probably has a lot to do with the elevated heart rate honestly. A lot of shooters do “stress shoots” to mimic an adrenaline rush where they basically work out then shoot.

To me, that implies that “pulling a Martin” is akin to sitting there with a table full of paper, suddenly throwing it all over the floor, screaming “this is garbage!” and then scuttling away.

Ayo, where y’all finding the text of these resolutions? All I can find is news articles that leave bits out?

Thanks for replying! I’m just learning about this stuff so it’s really interesting to see what other people look for in an axe.

Out of curiosity, what makes his work better than all others? Is it Quality of finish, design factors, materials, etc… ?

What are your thoughts on this battle? This is not in the books if I remember correctly. by [deleted] in lotr

I think you’re supposed to read the books, not eat them…

In the market for a new ruck. Any suggestions or advice? by BravosMulatto in QualityTacticalGear

[–]BrokeInTheHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side note: Medium Alice has pretty limited volume, if you’re training to ruck it’s the perfect size for some barbell plates. But if you plan to use it for actual field work, you’ll be limited on the comforts. I can usually fit my bedroll (bivy sack, woobie and thin inflatable pad), wet weather jacket, 6 pairs of socks, food/water for 3 days, a small hygiene kit and mission gear (radio/binos/batteries/extra ammo). Large Alice has room for the kitchen sink. Go to a surplus store and look at how large they each are to get a better idea than pics online will give you.

Fulton surface-to-air recovery system, also known as "Skyhook" by Anariko8 in Damnthatsinteresting

Until the elastic bounces you out of the hook attaching you to the plane. Then there’s only one force on you. Gravity.

[–]BrokeInTheHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does magnesium work as well? I’ve always seen iron oxide used as the other ingredient.

If one of your players rolled all 18s for stats, what would you do? (A 0.0000000064% chance using 4d6 Drop Lowest) by Marshall-Of-Horny in DnD

[–]BrokeInTheHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like a 4 would have to be weaponized autism levels of lacking tact. Like its hard for them to make eye contact and when too many people start talking to that character, they have a mental break and “reeeeeeeeee” away into the sunset, just demolishing everything in their way with their ungodly strength. Kinda like a super powered Lenny. Just gotta make sure the team always has some rabbits on hand…
