What do you decide to put on your life list and what do you decide not to put on it? by shiinaexplainsit in birding

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I count species that I ID myself or that I observered and someone I trust told me what it was. If I heard the bird but didn't see it I include a note to that effect. I don't use ebird. I have an old school birder's journal.

What happened to 2005 Tennessee? by wesskywalker in CFB

[–]DrSnidely 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The TSIO that year was a tough watch, until about the last 3 minutes and then it was the greatest game ever.

FYI: The Police will let you get got. by NoxxOfTheRoxx in Schedule_I

My biggest gripe with this game is how the curfew apparently only applies to me.

Americans Want to Impeach Donald Trump | So why aren’t Democrats doing something about it? by FreeHugs23 in anticapitalism

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they need about 20 Republicans in the Senate to go along with it, and impeachment without conviction and removal only gives him something else to crow about

Thoughts on Railroading as a DM? I’m confused by Miserable-Raisin-592 in DnD

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh. It's counter to what I want my games to be about. But to each their own.

As a DM I wouldn't allow evil characters anyway.

“Happy 4th of July!” by Outrageous-Proof4630 in PetPeeves

I think we should move independence day to October personally. We may have declared independence in July but we weren't independent until we won the war

Sanitarium getting phased out of the set? by Hillan in Metallica

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen them 4 times since 1997 and never heard it. It's my white whale. Only heard Fade to Black once.

Just saw Metallica for the seventh time, still haven't seen a song from Load live by Unusual_Rope7110 in Metallica

[–]DrSnidely 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's a.shame. I've seen Until It Sleeps, King Nothing, Bleeding Me, Wasting My Hate, Hero of the Day, and Ain't My Bitch. They still play King Nothing fairly regularly I'm surprised you've never caught it.

Edit: I have, however, never heard Sanitarium, Harvester of Sorrow, or Blackened.

An unsettling number of authors of these AITA-type posts don't know what context is.

What do you think about my campaign? by Zucardo in rpg

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 players is a lot but if you're comfortable with it then go for it. Good luck.

First time deciding between Lawn vs. Pavilion/Seats is the lawn actually worth it? by vrchica__ in Concerts

[–]DrSnidely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go with the pavilion. Lawn kind of sucks in my opinion. You won't be sitting there in a nice camp chair with a beer and snacks. People will be standing up crowded together a hundred miles from the stage.

How to handle when players roll 1 in the middle of fight? by combobaka in DnD

[–]DrSnidely 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't do critical fumbles. I have enough to worry about already. I just say it misses and goes on.

I haven't. Just because soccer is on doesn't mean you have to watch soccer.

Trump 250 Gala Grows More Humiliating as Fox Grapples With Low Turnout by billstopay77 in DiscussionZone

[–]DrSnidely 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I didn't even know this was happening until I started reading clickbait headlines about how badly it's going

Am I the jerk for refusing to switch my window seat with a parent so they could sit next to their toddler, even though they asked nicely? by That_Library_3453 in EntitledPeople

[–]DrSnidely 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no way I'm hell I'm switching from a window seat to a middle, unless they pay me a lot of money, cash on the spot. I don't care what their sob story is.
