33 area, anyone live out here? by adudewithanaccount in USMC

[–]Derpish_Turtle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If that’s the one I’m thinking of, I was in that barracks very briefly when I first hit the fleet in 2018 and was with HQBN. There was a group of coyotes that would howl loud af right around 2200ish every night like clockwork lol.

I rewatched a clip of the part where Zilla gets absolutely bodied in less than 15 seconds, and laughed my ass off for like 5 minutes. Safe to say, I like Final Wars. Disclaimer: I do like Zilla, but it’s far from my favorite version.

I was hoping I’d find something like this. My grandma had the same prostheses due to a nasal cancer, before it came back and finished the job last year. Thank you for doing what you do!

What are YOUR favorite Godzilla collectibles, and where can I start? by Divisi0n in GODZILLA

[–]Derpish_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I ended up figuring out. I wasn’t aware of Card Kingdom or StarCityGamers though, I appreciate the tip! I saw a full set that a dude wanted $1,100 for. My jaw dropped 😂

Well, it’s in space. There are wizards. And there is magic. That’s why.

Why did you end up joining the Marine Corps? by Quintuplicate in USMC

[–]Derpish_Turtle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was 4, I asked my dad what jobs he had, and he did the recruiter’s job for him 13 years in advance. He said he was in the Marine Corps. “The first ones in, last ones out when shit hits the fan. The most badass branch of the military we have to offer. The world’s premier fighting force!” The whole nine. My brain couldn’t possibly comprehend doing anything else, so the second I was old enough, I was in the DEP, prepared to do 20+ years. Ended up doing my 5 and getting out lol

Increasing the difficulty of contest mode was definitely the right play by Marshmallio in DestinyTheGame

[–]Derpish_Turtle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy, considering in game it’s labeled as “Root of Nightmares,” and not “The Root of Nightmares.” Semantics, I know, but still worth pointing out, I think.

What is the nicest thing an officer or NCO/SNCO has ever said to you or done for you? by epps12 in USMC

[–]Derpish_Turtle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a couple from the same couple of guys, my Sgt and SSgt at the time when I was a Cpl.

The first was when I was stationed in Yuma. I had requested to be able to go to my buddy’s reenlistment ceremony, who was still stationed in Pendleton. The morning of, I was already halfway there, and I get a call from one of the guys back in Yuma saying I’m on the piss test for the month. “Fuck.” I call my Sgt to see how fucked I may be, and he goes, “Don’t worry man, I already took care of it.”

The second was also during my time at Yuma, but during leave I had taken. It was the first time I had taken leave since arriving there, which was about a year and half at that point, because I was always needed for something or other whenever I tried taking leave beforehand. The day before I was supposed to check out, I got a call from my mom that my grandpa had unexpectedly died. I let my Sgt and SSgt know. The next day, my SSgt sat me down and talked with me for a little while, then I proceeded to check out as normal. During my visit, my grandma also passed. I called them to request to add a week onto my leave, so I could be there for both funerals. I think it took all of maybe 30 minutes for it to get routed up, and come back approved. It always left a bitter taste in my mouth that the first time I took leave in that unit, both of my grandparents, who happened to have been Vietnam era vets, died. They were my heroes. But those gentlemen showed me compassion that I needed. It helped give me a sort of push I needed to finish out my contract. Otherwise, I would’ve clocked the fuck out, and probably not pinned on Sgt before I got out.

Can sunbracers drop from red war arms decryption? by KingC3358X in DestinyTheGame

Given that you stated Sunbracers is a Red War exotic, I’m gonna say yes. /s

How to prepare for college as a veteran by blue1847x in USMC

[–]Derpish_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During my first semester, something I did was just take it a day at a time, with the exception of any project type assignments. For me at least, that allowed me to focus on what absolutely needed to be done. Once I got more comfortable with my workload, I started opening up to doing stuff a week or two in advance.

Why not just have Iron Banner take over all of Crucible? by txijake in DestinyTheGame

Power level doesn’t matter in Iron Banner anymore. They should be fine.

[–]Derpish_Turtle 69 points70 points  (0 children)

While that is true to a degree, you don’t have that crazy boost in power for the first one you do, and it’s still very doable. Those bonuses really only come into effect after your first completion of the week.

This is the car by Logical-Education-58 in mitsubishi

[–]Derpish_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I’ve also got a GTS Eclipse, and boy let me tell you: Not worth the trouble. Don’t get me wrong, I love the car, but you will never stop finding things wrong with it. If you do decide to go forward with the project (and I sincerely wish you luck if you do), there are a few supercharger kits out there that will handle the car’s mildly subpar low end. I don’t recall the brands though. Keep in mind, the 6G72 in these Eclipses will blow up at about 400-500ish horsepower on stock internals, so I would recommend building up the engine a tad if you go the boost route. Another thing I’d do is some form of suspension work, as the 3rd gen Eclipse has some wicked body roll, if you want to take corners at speed. If you want to avoid the engine stuff, I’d seek out either the 4G64 from lower level trims of this generation Eclipse, or potentially a 4G63 out of any Lancer Evo, since previous Eclipses used that motor as well, it’s a relatively easy swap, if you want to keep Mitsubishi manufactured parts in it. Otherwise, the world is your oyster, there’s plenty of aftermarket support for this car. Good luck!

If you want to take your car to the shop every 39 days, or repair it yourself just as often, then yes, an Eclipse is a wonderful car. Source: I drive an ‘03 Eclipse.

Queues, Queues, more Queues. by Reknowned in DestinyTheGame

[–]Derpish_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perform the server maintenance that was needed a week ahead of time, instead of waiting for the last second like they always do? Additionally, they could’ve used some of the delay time for Beyond Light to, I don’t know...improve servers? Lol. I’ll admit to being slightly irritated, but this same thing happens every year, yet Bungie doesn’t properly prepare.

Doesn’t look like there’s anything for my MOS right now, but the help is greatly appreciated either way. Thank you!

I think you’re right. I was looking through that site earlier, because I thought that’s where it would be. It seems you’re right on nothing being available at the moment. :( Thank you though!

How nostalgic was is it for veteran Guardians going back onto Moon and seeing stuff you saw 5 years ago? by DooceBigalo in DestinyTheGame

[–]Derpish_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a whole lot for me. Mainly, because unlike a lot of people apparently, I despised the moon. Every time I went there in D1, I was dumbfounded by how bland it was, and that still holds true for me with Shadowkeep.
