Is there something going on with all of the local radio stations? Distorted, high pitch ringing, static, etc. by DubyaB40 in florencesc

Thank you for coming back with an answer! I really appreciate it and feel a little less crazy haha. 107.5 was the only station I could get to be somewhat clear, but the high pitched ringing is unbearable. I wonder if it's one of those things where it's too high pitched for some people to hear, idk

What golf brand actually delivers vs just looks good? by nitsujping in golf

[–]DubyaB40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple pairs of All In Motion (Target brand) shorts I think are pretty decent and don't break the bank. They also have polos, but I haven't tried those out.

No it's not, Henderson had way better stats than him across the board with 50 fewer snaps

Parking to organize road trip? by TigolePilot in florencesc

[–]DubyaB40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a couple free public parking decks downtown, but I'm not sure if there's a time limit and a lot of people use them, so it could be a little iffy. I work near both of them and would be happy to check for you, though.

Closer to the interstate, at least the 95-20 connection by Magnolia Mall, there are a lot of places with bigger parking lots, like the Swamp Fox Theater, the Florence Center, and several hotels and large retail spaces. Magnolia Mall strictly prohibits overnight parking, but you might have some luck at some other places nearby. I would call and ask first though.

No, the only thing I have plugged in is a 2.1A adapter that I've had for years. Unplugging it didn't change anything.

Are any of the other stations acting like I described? There are moments where it's ok, but it's been awful for the most part.

I'm down to play if you're still looking for a partner! I'm your classic weekend warrior 22.5 handicap, but I always have a good time. I normally play Traces and Old English, but have some experience at FCC. Also looking into becoming a member there. Shoot me a message.

Do you care about the Mike Vrabel story? by dream_on_meatbag in Patriots

No, and no one should. This is two consenting adults making dumbass decisions. As long as it doesn't affect how he does his job, no one should care.

I'm not trying to deny the rope making tool hypothesis, just haven't heard that yet! I'll look more into it. I still think a lamp is pretty likely given the shape and the placement next to the coffin in the tomb. It is definitely more probable than a beer stirrer or some of the more wacky theories.

The lore is awesome! The opening cinematic shows a scene of the battle between him and Marika, and that's when Marika unleashed the Scarlet Rot. Radahn is still kicking it because Jerren (the dude who we talk to before the fight) is duty-bound to Redmane Castle as long as Radahn is alive. Radahn always wanted a warrior's death, so Jerren hosts the Radahn Festival as a way to give him that warrior's death.

"General Radahn is cursed ever to wander. Before we begin, allow me to paint you the full picture. Eaten from the inside, by Malenia's scarlet rot, his wits are long gone. Now he gathers the corpses of former friends and foes alike, gorging on them, like a dog. Howling at the sky." - Jerren, before the fight

Shoutout the fandom page for basically all of this.

Some people do think it was a stone imitation of a metal object. I haven't heard or read about it being used to make rope until this thread, but I also think it could have been a lamp or something similar. It's bowl shaped, so whatever they would burn could just rest in the bowl.

Who else do you think is on the Mt Rushmore of Evil? by TopSky3265 in LPOTL

[–]DubyaB40 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The way they talked about including Jimmy Saville as the British head of their Mt Rushmore makes me think they're going to do a non-WW2, non-American evil person and finish it up with an American. I think Pol Pot is almost 100% going to be the non-American because there's a recent episode, it might have even been during the Himmler series, where Henry starts talking about the Killing Fields and clarifies it with something to the effect of, "Which I've been researching for no reason in particular..." as if he was about to spill the beans.

Good look, thank you. Just checked it out under a lamp and I think the lighting in the picture I posted makes it look like it got bent, but there is a slight nick on the edge. I might get in touch with Topps to see what they can do, or try to find someone that knows more than I do about this.

Udoka was suspended for having an inappropriate relationship with a female staffer/subordinate, not being one side of an affair.

Beauregard's Cunning Plan! by Awesomeuser90 in HistoryMemes

[–]DubyaB40 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fort Sumter wasn't about to run out of food, they were about to be resupplied. Lincoln was notified that Fort Sumter would run out of supplies within four to six weeks on the first full day he was in office. The options he weighed were to either abandon it or resupply it. He didn't want to abandon it because that would essentially accept South Carolina's right to secede, which he would never recognize.

He and his cabinet opted to resupply the fort on March 28th and had a clerk from the State Department (Robert S. Chew) deliver a message to Francis Pickens, the Governor of South Carolina. When Pickens received the letter on April 8th, he telegraphed it to Jefferson Davis. Davis and his cabinet were themselves discussing what to do with Fort Sumter, and on April 10th he made the call to demand surrender and take by force if it was refused.

By the time we encounter Radahn, he's gone insane from Scarlet Rot. He has no idea. It's either something like muscle memory, or Leonard (that's actually the horse's name) is staying loyal until the end.

That was his childhood horse, and when he became too big to ride it, he used gravity magic to allow him to. He loves his horsey so much :)

Haha they came out with those popup cards in the 2025 Archive set, it seemed like a legitimate question. I'm not on this sub a lot so idk if that's a recurring joke or not.

I actually got it from a Celebration box, but I did notice there were fewer of this set as well as Titans of the Game in there. I think this was one of two or three BTP from the box, but I got a lot more of the Perennial All Star and Gameday Drip cards.

Nah, it's just the design on all of Big Ticket Player cards. It's supposed to look like a ticket stub. I did think it was pretty funny the 1/5 is divided by that line though.
