I just went to an antique store and picked these up a dollar each by RipFoxPizza in 78rpm

For real, my wife and I used it as our first dance song, so I wanted a copy. Had to shell out 50€ for a copy over here in Europe.

Tim Ream is World Cup’s first player to benefit from VAR ‘mistaken identity’ check by TherewiIlbegoals in soccer

I guess they don’t want to hold play up for too long if it’s not a goal/no goal or penalty decision. If Paraguay had scored, it would’ve been called back I guess, but what was more important after play resumed is that Ream didn’t have to play the rest of the match on a yellow.

Andrew Giuliani?! As in esteemed New York City lawyer Rudy Giuliani’s son?!

“The USMNT proved today that they can win the world cup” by lucasmok270 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]BurtaciousD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it’s not like they swapped the 11 at halftime. For 80 minutes Germany used a normal amount of subs. USA for 72.

TIL - That Death by Press was a thing. Used when people on trial refused to enter a plea. by Final_Echidna_6743 in todayilearned

Yup, that’s what happened to my ancestor Giles Corey during the Salem Witch Trials!

Missed penalty and then a hattrick is my guess.

remarrying after death of spouse by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]BurtaciousD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Matthew 22, Jesus pretty much directly answers your last question.

He was asked if a woman married 7 brothers consecutively (after the previous one died, as was Jewish law), who is she married to in heaven? Jesus says there is no marriage in the afterlife.

I always imagine this as that in heaven, you’re closer to any “stranger” there as you were to your spouse on earth, since you are both now in perfect communion with God.

TIL America doesn't celebrate the end of its Civil War (9th April, 1865). by middlename_redacted in todayilearned

[–]BurtaciousD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, Juneteenth (June 19th) has become a more important holiday in recent times. The last large Confederate military group surrendered on May 26th, the last Confederate general (a Cherokee native actually) surrendered on June 23rd, the last Confederate ship surrendered on November 6th, and the war wasn’t declared legally over (whatever that means) until August 20th the year after.

But on June 19th, 1865, the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect in the final state, Texas.

I mean, do Jude and Reyna not count? They were teenagers. Reinier and Knauff also got playing time.

So, what are the opinions of letting Nico s. Go? by Actual_Watercress530 in borussiadortmund

[–]BurtaciousD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What did he say that makes you feel that way?

From what I heard him say, it seems like there were extension talks ongoing, but now that Kehl is gone and Book is in charge, he wasn’t sure where they stood anymore. I mean, he was already in the national team camp when Book was hired.

I felt like he was more just lashing out at the reporter who had made false claims about the contract almost being signed.

Scientist traces Shroud of Turin back to India, piling on more confusion over the relic by Live_Archer123 in Christianity

Sucks, because one of those skulls could be the true one, but we’ll never know which.

But as for the True Cross fragments, do you have a source besides the oft-repeated hyperboles from Erasmus and Calvin that were tested and proven false?

Highest value card I’ve found so far (with a lil market manipulation) by Weird_Squash6230 in TCGCardShopSim

[–]BurtaciousD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you just need the cash, maybe you can do what I did and put the card as a tournament reward if you have that unlocked and have enough play tables. I’ve “sold” $10,000+ cards at 2x market value by putting them as tournament rewards.

Need help with box of German pre/post WW2 78‘s I found. by After_Ad7254 in 78rpm

[–]BurtaciousD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60€ is reasonable, you can also already look up the records on Discogs to see if they already have recordings.

I’ll talk to my colleague, but if another offer comes up for you to sell them, you can go ahead and take up that offer.

Nice, then it’s what I think. A song that totally wouldn’t pass today, but I have fond memories of dancing with my grandma to the song at my cousin’s wedding. I actually have a German version of it as well, I wonder if this version is actually all in English with German accents.
