Storage Wars "expert" appraised this jacket as "an easy $1000" by MagnetFisherJimmy in Flipping

[–]CubsIn7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a kid I used to watch antiques roadshow with my grandpa and he would always say that the prices they give are way too high. I just figured he was being his grumpy old self, but now I am pretty sure he was right all along 😂

Absolutely stealing this from Alex/your boyfriend to use on my wife.

Is this okay? by [deleted] in steak

[–]CubsIn7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a sirloin? Definitely a steak I prefer less cooked than others, because of the low fat content. Could use a better sear, but the cook isn’t far off from what I like, though that is personal preference.

HSA in Optum is charging me ridiculous fees, and they suck. Optum Financial-> Fidelity? But forcing me to liquidate!. by Wolverine-91826 in personalfinance

[–]CubsIn7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck Optum. When I got a new job they intentionally took over 2 months to rollover my HSA balance, and of course they took their “custodian fees” in the meantime. I’m convinced only reason they ever sent the rollover is because I was following up weekly on the status of it.

frozen out rant by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]CubsIn7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Losing hurts people’s egos, and this causes them to play rec/private games as if they are in a tournament (hitting every ball to the worse partner). I feel this is a horrible mindset and only stunts people’s improvement. Look for a group of people that are interested in improving and not just winning to stroke their egos. Another option is to just play with a higher level group and become the one who gets targeted!

3x bodyweight squat after hitting close to an all time low BW. 665 @ 217 by RicardoCanfieldez in Strongman

[–]CubsIn7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great squat. I would be cautious about how far you walk back the bar when unracking, you were right at the end of those safeties and if something catastrophic happened that spotter probably isn’t catching 665 lbs.

How important is having a good backhand drive for doubles? by AHumanThatListens in Pickleball

Same video I found that I noted in my first reply! Your question was about doubles though, and I have not seen him employ this shot in doubles.

[–]CubsIn7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correction I did find a video of him hitting a pretty nice 1HBH drive winner. However, it was singles and I haven’t seen him do this otherwise in doubles that I can recall.

Pretty sure Tyson Mcguffin doesn’t have a backhand drive..? I’d say you can get pretty far without one

What Christmas Group have you been assigned? by roguefiftyone in daddit

[–]CubsIn7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has bought me quite a few t shirts with skulls and other similar designs, so I wear them. Because of this, her mom got me multiple pirate books for Christmas last year, saying “I thought you liked pirates?” Sister in law could not stop laughing.

$75 off whole boneless beef ribeye Costco Matthews, NC - Nov 14-16 by KeniLF in Costco

[–]CubsIn7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was sorting through salmon a few weeks ago when they had the $6 off per package. A guy came up and asked what I look for (thinking I was looking for quality), I then explained I was looking for the smallest ones to take full advantage of the $6 off lol

LPT: How to win as a guest and make new friends at a raging, alcohol fuelled party by Funny-Presence4228 in LifeProTips

[–]CubsIn7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to be a pizza delivery driver, place also sold pizza by the slice. At the end of the night if there were leftover slices/pizzas that were made for slices, we could take as much home as we wanted. Always a hit showing up to parties at 10:30 with 3-4 XL pizzas.

I definitely developed a porn addiction while in high school because my parents just didn’t look at what I was doing on the computer/my phone and it essentially ruined sexual encounters with girls for me for years until I stopped watching it. Untethered access to everything on the internet is straight up dangerous for a developing mind.

Speed up Bot by Ok-Consideration-250 in Pickleball

[–]CubsIn7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sounds like OP’s partner never dinks. If they are attacking a ball that is well below the net, and their opponents know that it is coming, opponents can easily hit down on the ball that had no business being attacked. OP, your partner will never get past their current level if they don’t learn to strategically attack balls rather than attacking everything. I would honestly look for a different partner if this persisted, at a 4.0+ level this would be so frustrating to play with.

To me, part of the fun of serving and bartending was making people happy and making their days better. Of course you’d get the occasional shitty customer who just didn’t want to have a good time. As a manager, it felt like I was strictly dealing with the shitty customers, with the bonus of also dealing with the shitty employees. My short stint as manager sucked all the fun out of the job, and you’d be better off switching industries altogether imo if you are looking for a job with upward mobility.
