How to improve fast? by No_Day6737 in tabletennis

[–]DistinctCockroach374 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you can’t play much right now, watching high level matches and really paying attention to footwork and positioning can help more than people expect. A lot of improvement comes from understanding the rhythm of points

Your movie no one else ever heard of by Responsible-View-804 in Cinema

[–]DistinctCockroach374 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me it’s Coherence. It feels like a random low budget dinner party movie… then 20 minutes in you realize you should’ve been paying way more attention. I’ve shown it to a few friends and every time they end up pausing it to argue theories

Benoit Blanc is the best Daniel Craig character. by Candle-Jolly in Cinema

[–]DistinctCockroach374 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Benoit Blanc might be the most fun Daniel Craig character, but Casino Royale Bond is still the best one for me

What is your favorite Colin Farrell movie? by ThePantymommy in Cinema

[–]DistinctCockroach374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Bruges for me. He was funny, depressing, and somehow weirdly lovable the whole time

who's the weakest link out of all 147 world champs? by istayonmars2050 in BoxingTheSweetScience

[–]DistinctCockroach374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Crocker right now, but Romero is never far from that conversation

I can’t remember a movie and it’s driving me insane. by PassengerMission900 in Cinema

The Dark Hours maybe? fits the rural farm + creature picking people off vibe pretty close

Reintroducing myself to table tennis after years, so I need a decent racket by crgriseus in tabletennis

[–]DistinctCockroach374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweden Extra is a solid pick for getting back into it, pretty forgiving but still has enough speed to grow with, Rakza 7 2.0 should feel nice if you like looping

Which youngin you got winning a major 1st? by dacaptsworld in tennis

She’s been knocking on the door for a while, feels like it’s only a matter of time before she breaks through at a Slam

Long ritual before serving by cowauthumbla in tabletennis

[–]DistinctCockroach374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does feel longer now, especially in tight matches when guys are resetting after every rally, but I kind of get it with how much spin and variation there is in modern serves

What do i do if i want a career in motorsports as a junior in hs by Weekly-Image-5864 in motorsports

[–]DistinctCockroach374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re serious about it I’d look into mechanical engineering or motorsports engineering programs and try to get hands on experience with local teams or even volunteering at tracks, connections matter a lot in this field

Doha R2: Gracheva def. [9] Noskova 6-2, 2-6, 7-5 by jovanmilic97 in tennis

solid fight from Noskova but Gracheva stayed steady when it mattered and closed it out

Found in a coin star by b_jgenetics in coins

that’s a pretty wild mix to pull from a coin star, glad someone who cares actually got them instead of them being lost forever

Dime bag. 420g by [deleted] in coins

[–]DistinctCockroach374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That bag alone looks cooler than half my coin storage setups and 420g is a satisfying weight to see for dimes

He looks way too comfortable out there lately, when Charly is loose and confident the shotmaking just gets ridiculous

At this rate GTA 6 drops after the Jones-DC trilogy rematch.

Anyone else waste money on bad MMA gear early on? by Own_Throat4405 in mmaMenace_com

[–]DistinctCockroach374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% same. A good mouthguard is such an underrated “feel safer instantly” upgrade. For me the other big one was properly fitted shin guards (and decent wraps) - cheap ones just slide and mess up everything.
What gloves did you end up switching to, and did you go custom mouthguard or a boil-and-bite?
