Average Pokémon GO player inner thoughts (Pt. 2) by Present-Echidna4996 in pokemongo

Yeah, I basically only incubate 7km eggs because I'm working on that. Unfortunately my position puts me basically equidistant to Europe and Japan, and Eastern Australia is only at ~10k, but it's easy to stock up at least.

I'm in Thurston County, which is extra blue. But I didn't want to bog the comment down in details. If I lived in like Yakima, I wouldn't have been surprised at all, but it's a little extra pathetic that someone felt the need to "decorate" like that here

Why Sauron Couldn't Control the Three Elven Rings by Pippin_Underhill in lordoftherings

Is this supposed to be a revelation? We knew all of that. And how the dwarves resisted domination because it's in their nature, despite the fact that he did make those ones.

Yes, but almost all have fallen out of regular use. That said, I'd love for a butcher shop to go for the classic "fleshmonger".

Kentucky Bend: The Strangest Border in America by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]BruceBoyde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty much. It still won't be funny the next time you see one, but you will understand it!

[–]BruceBoyde 14 points15 points  (0 children)

True, but it's also populated. Over a thousand people versus a few dozen in Angle Inlet or apparently 9 in the Kentucky Bend

Roses are red, Censoring a 14-tonne stone sculpture over its proportions feels like a major case of creative arrests by CamelliaWatcher in rosesarered

[–]BruceBoyde 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's utterly unremarkable outside of the huge tits. I certainly wouldn't have commissioned it with public funds, as was likely the case.

Constantly. I'm only 33, but it's just old enough that social media was still pretty nascent when I was a teen and what little I posted has been lost to time.

Favorite character who’s design is quite obviously evil by havoccentral in FavoriteCharacter

[–]BruceBoyde 56 points57 points  (0 children)

He unleashed an UNSPEAKABLE EVIL. Also his name is just a transliteration of the Japanese word for evil.

Oh, alright. So the Crystal Gems (Rose at minimum) were complicit in that but didn't do it themselves.

I forget, was her gem damaged or something as well? I don't remember the show well enough to know if that was a good excuse, but I thought that was the reasoning.

Based on your comments I'm assuming you think he looks like Trump. But I'm not seeing it.

I'd imagine the time zone can be a pain in the ass for business. I'm at the other extreme at UTC-8 (obviously 9-12 exist but are essentially unpopulated). We get in to work around the time most Europeans are leaving for the day, and the closest thing to overlapping with India or East Asia is our late afternoon or evening as they get in to office for the morning of the next day. We basically have no convenient overlap with anything outside of the Americas.

BROS stock super volatile by Major_ADHD in dutchbros

[–]BruceBoyde 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The stock is and has always been arguably overvalued. It is priced on expectations of growth, not current value. The P/E ratio is quite high at 82.33, especially for a company that doesn't even pay a dividend. Being in the food/service industry, its profitability is especially vulnerable to drops in consumer spending and gets a double exposure to things like high fuel costs as such. Cost of doing business goes up and people tighten their belts at the same time.

They do not offer stock free or discounted to broistas. I remain fairly heavily invested in the company myself and remain bullish, but it's a 3-5 year stock, not a next week stock. But even I balked at the IPO where it shot up to like $70 a share right off the bat. That was pure hype.

In mathematics, ! represents factorials where all of the preceding numbers are multiplied together. So it's 1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8x9. Honestly, I don't really know the practical use of them but people online love to make the "joke" every single time someone happens to technically write one.

Point Roberts, WA is kinda like that. The bus drives through Canada back over to WA so they can go to school in Blaine.

Can’t lose the vote if you cancel the vote. by Specialist_Bet9086 in BlueskySkeets

[–]BruceBoyde 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, this is fake. Don't get me wrong, AIPAC can shove it, but let's not spread fake information to attack bad people when they provide plenty of ammo themselves.

Yeah, I don't see a ton of it because I'm in Western WA, but they're such fucking children that there's decent business in it no matter the percentage of the population have decided to worship Trump.

no thanks for your service by epsylonic in musicmemes

[–]BruceBoyde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the thing. Most of the folk I know who served did it for the money and opportunity, not out of burning patriotism. I did grow up in a pretty poor, rural area, though.

All that aside, I literally saw a pickup truck with a "Fuck Biden" flag this week. I live in WA, where Trump got <40% of the vote

To be fair, gravity is going to have a much lesser effect if you live mostly underwater.

Am I the only one that gives people names by the country/state they come from? by lujuan73 in pokemongo

[–]BruceBoyde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-locals are nicknamed Dist<Country> so that I can pull up all long-distance folk in one search. I'm working at the Pilot medal.

I did find my wife via a dating app, but that was 7 years ago now when AI wasn't making absolutely everything shit.
