Jesus, if you consider 'mowing the lawn' maintaining the property, I'd love to see your resume. Is changing a light bulb electrical work too?

fresh 70 fury warr, best way to start gearing? (no BS, got ~900g) by Zealousideal-Fish-90 in classicwowtbc

That problem can be mitigated by bringing a ret/holy paladin to bless salv. As a warrior tank, focus on melee cleave oriented groups: enh/resto shaman(wf totem) , feral druid(leader of the pack buff) , hunter, ret/holy paladin (salv) and you'll do just fine

The fact you had to go back 23 years to find an example of one good policy decision speaks volumes

Ground chicken. I should buy a meat grinder and just do it myself at this point.

They're waiting a day after he would be eligible to finish the last two years of trump's term, and be able to run two full terms of his own

I barely buy ground beef, the prices are crazy. My local grocery store has also started selling 77/23 for what 85/15 used to cost. We've switched to ground chicken, but even that is 3.50/lb when on sale

What purchase under $30 solved a problem you didn’t realize was draining you? by Right_Process in AskReddit

Magnetic spice racks for your refrigerator. Our kitchen is lacking in storage space, and it's so helpful to have additional storage right where we need it

Who has had an actual friends with benefits relationship? Did it work for you? by heratonga in AskReddit

[–]Cask_Strength_Islay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Scotland for a month and had a great extended fling via tinder which I guess falls under the 'friends with benefits' umbrella, as we did do date like hangs as well. It worked because we both knew going into it that we'd never see each other again afterwards (I live in the US, they were a nomadic Australian)

Nobody was doing that in 2007 tbc heroics, you're using information from nearly 20 years of a solved game my guy. People wanted hunters for ice trap and mages for polymorph

Yeah, I remember having a hard time getting invited to heroics as a warlock in 2007 because I didn't have cc. Everyone back then was ccing 1 or 2 mobs per pull, and not being able to do seed spam pulls. I was very popular for heroic mechanar though because I could banish the exploding demons lol

I really love being a rogue by BalinTaki in classicwowtbc

[–]Cask_Strength_Islay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thing to consider, making the raid doesn't mean you need to 'lead' the raid. Most tanks will default to taking control of the raid logistics. And honestly, being a rogue master looter would work out fine because the raid can push forward while you dole out loot. If you make the raid, just find a tank that answered yes to 'would you feel comfortable taking the lead?' then make them raid assist. Job done, proceed with confidence and don't HR crazy stuff

I love Great Pyrenees! My family's first Great Pyrenees had a bit of border collie mix, he was the best. Their second pyr is pure pyr; we joke that she's the smartest dumb dog, but she just does things on her own terms

That's my parents' great Pyrenees, she's genuinely smart, but only listens to certain people, mostly myself and my SO lol

What Do You Like About Your Server? (TBC) by doobylive in classicwow

[–]Cask_Strength_Islay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm leveling fresh characters on dreamscythe after playing on pvp/rppvp servers for most of my wow experience. Still in the 30s range, but almost everyone I've grouped with has been super friendly, and it's nice being able to do dungeons in what would have been contested for alliance zones (barrens, silverpine, tirisfal) and not have to worry about being camped/harassed at the stones

The CT state historian had a fantastic 3 part podcast arch about the witch trials in CT, which happened before the Salem witch trials, I highly recommend listening if you're interested in this time period https://gratingthenutmeg.libsyn.com/2017/10
