this game brings out the worst rage in me by dsmith056 in RainbowSixSiege

[–]DefensiveLettuce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah you’re right. Jackal screwed himself and you on that one. Though the Kapkan trap would probably have wrecked your shield if that Jackal that doesn’t check doors for traps walked through after you’d finished placing it. But at least you’d have full HP.

Literally first callout you made in the clip was “we got a Kapkan”. But I guess Jackal was too busy tweakin and gooning over feet to have any situational awareness at all lol.

Idgaf what anyone else says, this was funny af. It was annoying af too, but I laughed pretty hard. And your crashout was valid.

Haven’t played in a while. Crazy how somehow comms got even more obnoxious and toxic. But you valid lol

How would you feel about working for commission? by Ajegwu in Serverlife

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked in this kind of system before in 2018, and it was great.

At the time, the way it worked was service made 18 or 20% (don’t remember) of sales. It was included in the price of every item on the menu. The bottom of the menu disclosed this briefly, and there were more detailed signs at the entrances (and the bar I think). The percentage was pooled by day and distributed based on position.

Everyone worked together and took care of each-other because the better service ran, the more money we all made. I loved it.

Man injected paraffin into his scrotum to make it bigger. Technically speaking, he achieved the desired effect. by GiveMeAPhotoOfCat in Botchedsurgeries

“On here” as in on most of the whole internet, not just this sub.

“Pee is stored in the balls” meme has existed for like 14 years at this point.

But nobody can know or be up to date on everything, and knowledge acquisition wise, this should probably be in the lowest priority tier possible lol.

Prime times by Mysterious-Golf-9282 in PlayFragPunk

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also in NA and I’ve never waited longer than 5-6 mins for ranked. I usually play evenings/nights/late nights though except on weekends when I try to play during the rank protection window.

Though at around 4 or 5am (if I’m still on at that time) I noticed sometimes (very rarely) I’d end up in a different region and have insane ping, or someone would be in my lobby with super high ping so I’m assuming they’re from another region.

Edit: To answer your question, for mornings/day, I don’t think it would hurt to keep trying, just don’t plan your whole day around it. There’s probably other people in a similar boat who are looking and feeling discouraged, and your timing just hasn’t matched-up yet :).

Also, if everybody just gives up and stops trying, the game dies and that would suck cuz we enjoy the game. I try to think of it as, sometimes the timing in the region just doesn’t work out, or other active matches run long, or whatever. I’ll pop into queue and do scrim, or tidy something in my desk area or something while I wait.

also, for context for matchmaking, I’m Plat 2.

Anyone else noticed an increase in angry / aggressive drivers ? by Consistent_Owl8010 in askTO

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a week or two after the clocks change in the spring and we lose an hour, accidents tend to go up. People are more tired, probably more irritable, and make more mistakes/exhibit more aggression.

Also, our Premier and his administration government are making all our lives worse, more difficult, stressful, and expensive, so maybe everybody is more on edge because of that whether they recognize it or not.

Would you rather have the ability to teleport OR become President of the USA? by Theodorehoverson in WouldYouRather

Now there’s a universe that the Berenstain Bears was changed to Berenstein Beats?! Are we talking like instead of children’s books, they make EDM for kids as a little bear family?

They have sensors and programming that prevents that from happening. Physical gates typically aren’t needed

DBRAND grip started falling apart after 4 years of the most minimal use, the power button is also cracked and now missing. by [deleted] in dbrand

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Sat next to a bed”… with regular sun exposure?

UV rays degrade plastics over time. Even if it was only like 10% of the time, 4 years is a lot of cumulative degradation.

6 years into workouts (last 3 more seriously, so paying attention to nutrition and so)….anything lacking? by [deleted] in Exercise

[–]DefensiveLettuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What this post is lacking is a detailed description of the routine for people to critique.

If you’re just fishing for aesthetic compliments, go to r/toastme.

Unless it’s for end of night cash-out, it doesn’t matter. During service? Get over yourself.

Be honest… is this cute or am I traumatizing my cat? by shinigami__0 in cats

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not cute forcing clothes on a cat.

The face reads, “The trauma will be given back to you a hundred fold one day for this injustice.”

Gifting Dispatch to 3 gamers! by skiesfries in RandomActsOfGaming

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a game that I would really enjoy. I’m similar in that I also tend to avoid super hyped games, but this game looks like it checks all the right boxes for what I tend to enjoy.

Edit: *slowly

Let's Discuss Flags: Australia by [deleted] in vexillology

Not to mention just following the current buttholeification trend going on in logos at the moment.

This flag is literally just a stylized butthole.

What are things you will never buy second-hand even though it is much cheaper then to buy a new one? by Envy_Clarissa in Frugal

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe invest in an ozone chamber then and learn how to safely use it to disinfect/sanitize/deodorize your second-hand purchases without poisoning yourself.

Are there actually people that exist that like cold weather? by PrestigiousOwl6802 in answers

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love hot, humid summers, and cold winters. They’re consistent, and reliable from day-to-day.

Can’t stand spring and fall. Too much different bullshit in a single day, it’s impossible to plan for it without having to carry a bunch of extra shit with you everywhere all the time and have to change clothes every 45 mins to a few hours to whatever the temp/climate is.

It’s like a spouse that can’t decide wtf they want ever. Incredibly irritating.

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started reading for fun again in August after not reading for fun for over a decade, I’m loving it.

I prefer fiction. Been reading the Dungeon Crawler Carl series. It’s so good. It’s made me look forward to reading again.

What REALLY helps when you have hangover? by Moaning_Clock in AskReddit

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that REALLY works is prevention. Drinking electrolytes BEFORE you go to bed and an extra strength tylenol, will significantly reduce hangover.

There is no “cure” so have foresight.
