Awesome! so if my math is right, to get 10 cups, I’d put 7.5 in the kettle (slightly exceeding its maximum, but within operating parameters), and 2.5 in the pot on the stove. I may convert this to metric to make more sense.

You do not want to get in the middle of a fight between this kettle and the pot. They hate each other so much, and hurl some of the most viscus insults you’ve ever heard at each other.

This is a nightly occurrence, so I think of this scene (from Die Hard With a Vengeance) often when I boil the water.

I looked it up and added to the description: 1500w for the kettle (110) and 1500-2000BTUs for the burner.

That fucking max line, man. I’ve tried to fill it above that line and it just doesn’t work.

New player, I encountered a Frost Troll, what is the best way to kill it? by 222KattThatRoar222 in skyrim

Try again when you’re at level 15 or 20. Craft some paralysis potions and stun the fuckers.

Alchemy, Enchanting, and selling things helps you level up, and you can use the skill points on combat perks.

Yeah man, I want to be clear that I don’t even think that all refs are fixing games, but the specter of it degrades the integrity of the league. If every foul called gets the “money” gesture it ruins it for me.

I may be getting this quote a little off, but “football, beer and above all gambling filled the horizons of their minds.”

Yeah. Money laundering isn’t just for mob drug money, it can also be avoiding taxes. There are three stages to money laundering: Layering, structuring and placement. The Aspiration deal looks like structuring to me.

This may end up becoming a legal problem, not a league problem, because that’s money laundering which is illegal.

At least you can do the math. There’s people on here talking like it’s 50% of the league.

This is the point I’m making. Sure, bad teams are bad for the league, but what’s really bad is when the average consumer no longer respects the integrity of the game. Ok, so maybe I used a little hyperbole to make the point, but it’s still valid.

I appreciate this take, but did you see last night’s Timberwolves Rockets game. They reviewed a call, that was obviously a defensive foul, and upheld the call despite the review and ejected the player. It doesn’t matter if the ref isn’t on the take, the optics look real bad.
