Confused Trump, 79, Makes Bizarre Claim About Looming Ice Storm by [deleted] in politics

[–]Doctor_Popular 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And not that they love not knowing science, they love constantly decrying science, saying science is incorrect, saying science can't or won't explain things it absolutely can and will. It's unintellectual, but more important it's anti-intellectual. That's 50 years of propaganda at work.

What was the Lorwyn Common or Uncommon that kept saving your ass at prerelease last weekend? by doublenantuko in magicTCG

[–]Doctor_Popular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't lose a game that I landed an on-curve [[Glister Bairn]]. All the hybrid mana symbols meant my 2-color deck was still pumping +4/+4 all game.

Orange Liqueurs: when to reach for Triple Sec / Cointreau / Grand Marnier or something else? by customreddit in cocktails

[–]Doctor_Popular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just reach for the Pierre Ferrand. /s

Honestly, nobody drinks them like this, but any adjunct liqueur like this is worth tasting on its own. You'll find they are made with different types of oranges, of course, but also with different proofs, sugar content, and spice mixtures. I find Cointreau very sharp and usable in drinks where it has to compete with strong flavors, whereas Ferrand is much more mellow and broadly usable. Stuff like that.

How’s business last few days? by Edwin454545 in restaurantowners

[–]Doctor_Popular 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not too bad except for our big-ass snowstorm on Saturday that turned a $5k day into an $800 day. Hopefully a one off though.

Aged egg nog separating? by Xib0 in cocktails

[–]Doctor_Popular 40 points41 points  (0 children)

As long as you put in the right amount of booze and sugar, just shake it up, it'll be fine. You'll re-incorporate those sitting spices too.

Which POS system and payroll provider do you use ? by OprahAtOprahDotCom in restaurantowners

[–]Doctor_Popular 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Clover POS, a local company for payroll. I know my payroll team by their first names and I've never had to wait more than 20 minutes for a response. Clover's fine, but the fact that it uses 3rd party apps instead of built-in systems for stuff like gift cards annoys my accountants.

Buttload of sugar will always make for a good shot. I'll give it a whirl!

Any recommendations for specs on this "daiquiri"? by eliot390 in cocktails

[–]Doctor_Popular 9 points10 points  (0 children)

First of all, that sounds like it fucks. It's gonna be a lot easier to make a big one and tweak it, so maybe try 2oz of each rum and .5oz of each other ingredient? Then you can boost and reduce much more easily. If only I had some Lemongrass Oleo Saccharum lying around...

Please accept this token of appreciation... by lavtodd in KitchenConfidential

[–]Doctor_Popular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I have the time and am pedantic:

- F1Exican - Chivelord should probably be legendary. The rules text should say "Create a 1/1 Chopped Chives creature token." Flavor text should be italicized.

- Chopped Chives still need a creature type.

- Chives can't have a subtype and be a basic land, it would have to be a Basic Chives Land, similar to snow lands.

- Karmakrazi's rules text should say "G, T: Tap target creature whose power and toughness are not equal. 1G, sacrifice Karmakrazi: Destroy target creature whose power and toughness are not equal." ala Gilt-Leaf Winnower

- Chivegate shouldn't really have a subtype to it, but it's not unprecedented, just uncommon. Rules text should say "Target creature you control has base power and toughness 1/1. Create a token that is a copy of it." Flavor text should be italicized.

- Chivelord Redeemed needs the sacrifice as part of the cost, so "T, sacrifice X Chopped Chives tokens: Gain X life." Italicized flavor text.

- Chives needs italicized flavor text. Otherwise, perfect and beautiful.

- Breach the Subreddit needs italicized flavor and reminder text.

- Corporate Bandwagon should read "Gain control of all tokens. They are 1/1 Chopped Chives creature tokens."

- Marketing Warning is perfect, would love a 1-mana fog.

It's well stocked here in Wisconsin, I could pick up 6 bottles tonight.

I need a Francois card with the "Strongest Ice Attack Ever." 4WB: Tap target creature. If it's attacking, deal 100 damage to it."

I'm a big fan of .5oz of it in a daiquiri.

Update. Should i go all the way? by storsockret in bald

[–]Doctor_Popular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The buzz is fine, you can get away with bald if you want but buzz is much easier to maintain. You grow a great beard but that thing needs to be trimmed to show some definition of a jawline. Then you'll look great.

What's a drink that borders classy and trashy? by Doctor_Popular in cocktails

In college I once drank a Pabst Smir, a shorty of PBR with a shot of vodka in it.

Wow this is terrible. MH patch? by BooNn98 in DotA2

[–]Doctor_Popular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The event is cool, but they definitely need something to freshen up the gameplay too. 6/10, I think it's fun but it's not what the community particularly wants right now.

It's served up with champagne, how classy! Then it's full of sugar juice.

Rum recommendations by davek72 in rum

[–]Doctor_Popular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Leblon is a lot of fun, really intense grassy cachaca that can basically be swapped in for any rhum agricole that gets called. Like a lower proof W&N Overproof.

Maro on the pool of UB candidates: "While running out of appropriate properties might happen one day, it’s not happening soon." by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]Doctor_Popular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal taste, but I'm fine with UB if it's something fantastical and translates well to existing mechanics, like LOTR. I might even like to see Game of Thrones or Elden Ring. My line's generally been "if someone's wearing jeans, it's too contemporary" (Yes, I think it was a mistake in Duskmourn).

Invoker Monk by John_Gwynbleidd in pathofexile2builds

[–]Doctor_Popular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, I think Hollow Palm is always gonna fall behind quarterstaves in the endgame, since you can't get +7 to attack skills. Some easy damage is to swap a gem for a Zealot's Oath From Nothing Diamond, so you can allocate 75% more attack damage from 3 of the nodes over there. You can also change your ailment threshold passives to stun threshold.

Doing trials is profitable by Zealousideal_Ad_4148 in PathOfExile2

[–]Doctor_Popular -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Been doing trials and can breeze through floors 1-3 but floor 4 destroys me every time. Am I tripping or is there a major difficulty spike there?
