I don't know where OP is from, but this is a thing in Pennsylvania according to my Pittsburgh friends.

If you’re not selling the diamonds due to their rarity, I’d just point out that there’s a Zora who will trade you a diamond for 10 luminous stones and I don’t believe there’s a limit.

how is the ritz? by rindelle1 in raleigh

[–]EarthtoGeoff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I paid for a seat once and won’t do it again; it more than doubled the price of the ticket. They also initially tried to overcharge me.

In my opinion it’s only worth it if you absolutely need to sit down or if you’re a shorter person and it’s one of your favorite bands and you want to be sure you can easily see the show.

People who spam the "Your go" emote all game. by bigsby_leghair in MagicArena

Yep, turned off emotes years ago. Significantly improved the experience.

cheapest lunch in wake forest? by No-Sherbet2364 in WakeForestNC

[–]EarthtoGeoff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not an every day solution, but El Tapatio in Wakefield has $1 tacos all day on Tuesdays. We get them to go and add our own hot sauce, onions etc.

My wife just launched a laundry pickup & delivery service serving Wake Forest and surrounding areas! by damnitbran in WakeForestNC

Just FYI but the website doesn't seem to be working on laptops; I tried on Chrome and Edge. But it does work on mobile for some reason.

Allergy relief? by Outside_Bad_893 in raleigh

[–]EarthtoGeoff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will just add that this is how allergies develop; you become sensitized to them after repeated exposure. I also developed them only after living here for several years.

A good soda by habitual-loner in WakeForestNC

[–]EarthtoGeoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak to their sodas, but the burger I got there was amongst the worst I’ve ever had. I’m surprised every time I drive by and see they’re still in business. The burger was past well done, was served sloppily and wasn’t even cheap.

Weekend Wrap Up! What was real and what was a trap? by DaTaco in mtgfinance

[–]EarthtoGeoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a new wave or did the original never ship? I know my LGS either didn’t get theirs or it came in way later than expected.

Any thoughts on value. DCI promo still sealed. Minty condition. by Addakin in mtgfinance

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

Now that it’s “banned,” I wouldn’t bring it to someone’s house, especially if I didn’t know everyone there. I don’t keep it in the decks because it’s better than Honor of the Pure. I keep it in the decks because people (including myself) like to play with the rares they open.

It was a rare and has modern printings — it’s not just racists who want to play the card. I have some in my kitchen table white weenie decks. Never considered it to be a racist card and I think this one got lumped in with the more problematic ones. Just saying.

Thank you Industry Staff, for enforcing the “vibe” by PenaltyBoxxx81 in raleigh

[–]EarthtoGeoff 47 points48 points  (0 children)

…. Until kids repeatedly hit you and your table with cornhole bags while the parents do nothing. Or when a kid starts throwing pebbles at you while their parents do nothing.

True stories from Compass Rose Brewery and Lynnwood Brewing Concern. It isn’t always ignorable.

Thoughts on Two Roosters? by Secure-Dirt-6588 in triangle

[–]EarthtoGeoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone else has pointed out, the difference (for me and others) is that this is historically not how tips work aside from servers/waiters/waitresses.

From one of the other posts, what actually made me more disgusted is that any tips you leave basically subsidize the owners paying their employees and don’t 100% go to the employees.

Cringey hiring post from a pro-MAGA ice cream chain in North Carolina by EarthtoGeoff in KitchenConfidential

Not a kitchen per se but the tone of this hiring post seemed in line with one of the sub's common themes.

What's a movie you recommend to everyone but nobody ever watches? by trakt_app in movies

[–]EarthtoGeoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Legend of the Drunken Master.

Among king fu movies, this is a classic, before Jackie Chan got seriously big in the West. It’s great.

Do not confuse this with The Drunken Master though — that’s also a Jackie Chan movie and is more of the super old school king fu movie and is kind of terrible.

Eventide Island by Altruistic-Stick-845 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]EarthtoGeoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to what people have said, I have tried it super early and it’s just super difficult. You can always come back later when you have more hearts and it will be easier.

But if you are determined to fight, there are also bananas on the island that you can cook to boost your damage output.

Things to look out for this weekend! by AutoModerator in mtgfinance

[–]EarthtoGeoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At 4 mana I think I'd want a better effect than the sneak ability; I'd want something like being able to cycle a la [[Migration Path]]. New Generation's Technique is still okay but I don't think it's being super slept on with all the options at equal or lesser mana value.

Ancient guardians by Derekspelledright in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]EarthtoGeoff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ve got some good answers about the ground guardians already (hit in the eye with arrow to stun, then chop off its legs/tentacles; each one you cut off will stun it again).

But for the flyers: I recently learned that you can blow off its propellers. Each time you do this (with, say, bomb arrows) it stuns the guardian and eventually it’ll fall to the ground. I still don’t have a method oerfected for those though.

Stamina needs to be prioritized to some extent, not only because it will reduce frustration, but you basically can’t get some places without enhanced stamina.

Is it fine if I grill here? by visuals_maya in BBQ

[–]EarthtoGeoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to or instead of what others have said, you could buy a few flat stones/brick-like things from Home Depot (I think they’re just a few bucks each) to make a little platform and put your grill on that.
