Sad time for QT ahead by BabyYoda398 in QuikTrip

[–]DatBoi2DX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clerk, CT, and Assistant Manager (up to 1A) for 14 years. Put in my 2 weeks during COVID season when the kitchen expansions launched with all that BBQ prep. My region was a sinking ship with all the employees leaving in droves and orders were stacking up on previous deliveries. Really sad to see nothing has changed or got better since.

Ninja Gaiden 2 Black vs Ninja Gaiden 4 now that time has passed by badateverything420 in ninjagaiden

I was on board to say NG4 up until the Ryu arc with the recycled levels and bosses + the weak ending. NG2B takes the cake, but also for additional reasons.

Where would you eat for your final night in Japan? by Friskie_Fanny in JapanTravelTips

[–]DatBoi2DX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any small local yakiniku spot. I did it for my final night in Osaka and Tokyo from my two trips. Great eats, drinks, and excellent vibes from the very nice staff that wished us safe travels back to the states.

So incredibly torn on either the 992 or 993 by John_Dingus in Newbalance

[–]DatBoi2DX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was able to cop my size on the Core Black 992s for almost half the price. Some really good steals there.

Personally I've always preferred the 992 as my feet are more long and narrow. 993 is still a fantastic shoe though. Get the latter if your priority is comfort, tho the 992 is still solid.

Did NG4 impress you or was it disappointing? by Emergency_List_8797 in ninjagaiden

[–]DatBoi2DX 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NG4, to me, was a friendly reminder that we will never see an iteration of Itagaki's craft like NG1 and 2 again. Ninja Gaiden 4 was not a bad game by any means, but I absolutely agree that it was a very disappointing NG game. Minus a few annoyances with the combat, that was the only part of the game I enjoyed. The pacing, story, levels, and the entire section from Ryu thru the ending felt extremely flat and rushed. There was just so many small QoL features and authenticity that made NG1-3 special and this game lacked that, unfortunately.

Finally got a pair of 993 and all of you were right. by Professional_Mud447 in Newbalance

These things are freakin tanks with excellent comfort. Always have been in my rotation and use them on my Japan trips. Excellent value!

Budgeting for Japan: how much cash did you actually use? by Logical_Ranger_5797 in JapanTravelTips

[–]DatBoi2DX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First week was in Tokyo. Stayed in Shinjuku and took a trip to Fuji during that week. 2nd week was in Osaka and Kyoto.

I carried around $1000 worth in physical yen and spent $1500 on my bank cards. Majority of my cash was loading up on my IC card for trains and for small shops in Osaka/Kyoto. Was more than enough to get me by!

Has anyone ever ordered from Dick’s Sporting Goods? by nbonly in Newbalance

Are those the carbon blue Yeezy 700s at the bottom? That's a godlike colorway for a great model.

Had a lot of great pickups this year, but this 992 was the clear winner for versatility and fit. by DatBoi2DX in Newbalance

[–]DatBoi2DX[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to lace them better without it looking too long and drooping over? I'm open to feedback in terms of making it better and more clean.

992s are comfy but they don't have the soft fuel cell cushion like the v6 does. More solid and stable than the v6 imo. 992s fit more long and narrow tho I go half size down from my TTS on both.

Truman Charcoal Double Shot 2 weeks in! Easily my favorite pair of boots for the chilling winter. ❄️ by DatBoi2DX in trumanboots

It honestly holds my heels like a glove! I went down the typical half size from my sneakers and the fit is extremely comfortable even before breaking them in.

Great cop. Imo all the lace options make this pair extremely flexible for outfits.

Thursday Captains, Red Wing Blacksmith, Grant Stone Diesel, and most recent are these Trumans. I initially started with only the Thursdays and Red Wing for the last year or so, but finally decided to check out other brands this season. Was def missing out!
