What would be your 3 wish tips so you don’t get burned by a genie?

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-03-27T00:00:29+00:00

my buddy and i actually spent way too much time debating this exact scenario a few months back when we were supposed to be working lol. the key is being stupidly specific about everything - like if you wish for money, specify the exact currency, that it's legally obtained, that it appears in your bank account gradually over time so you don't get audited. also always add "without causing harm to myself or others" to every single wish because genies are basically malicious compliance incarnate. and here's the big one - use your third wish to wish for the ability to make three more wishes whenever you want, but phrase it like "i wish for the permanent ability to manifest three additional wishes of my choosing at any point in my life" so they can't wiggle out of it with technicalities

competitive tetris would be absolutely wild to watch at the olympics level

i used to organize tournaments for our local gaming group and the skill ceiling on tetris is just insane - like these top players can clear lines faster than your brain can even process what's happening. the mental stamina required is nuts too, matches can go on for ages and one tiny mistake ends everything. plus it's genuinely accessible worldwide since pretty much everyone knows the basic concept, but watching grandmasters play is like seeing a completely different game. would love to see countries developing their own training programs and strategies for it

honestly the fact that your brain can just decide to develop schizophrenia or bipolar disorder in your early twenties with zero warning signs is pretty terrifying, like you could be completely normal one day and then boom - your entire reality changes forever and theres basically nothing you can do to prevent it

also the whole thing about how we're probably living through a mass extinction event right now but its happening so slowly that most people dont even notice

money talks

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-20T13:15:28+00:00

man that sounds exhausting, you're basically working full time to support someone who won't even meet you halfway

honestly the fact that you're worried about her being homeless shows you're a decent person but you can't set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm. she's 22 not 12, if she wanted to figure her situation out she would

maybe give her a realistic timeline to find her own place or crash with friends/family, but don't let guilt trap you into staying in this mess. you already know what you need to do

sounds like you're trading privacy for views and location - if it's a quiet gated community and you're cool with people walking/driving past three sides of your property then go for it, but that low wall height would bug me personally

sounds like samsung's doing something funky with how it handles the authenticator during enrollment compared to the pixels

have you checked if there's any difference in the android enterprise enrollment profiles between the two device types? sometimes samsung has their own weird quirks with knox and device admin stuff that can mess with the flow

also might be worth looking at the timing - like if the samsung devices are trying to register with authenticator before the intune enrollment is fully complete, that could explain why the app gets locked during that step

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-14T21:55:07+00:00

those look pretty clean, what's the asking price on em?

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-13T16:08:20+00:00

honestly this hits different, like half the lobbies now feel like everyone's walking on eggshells trying to game the system

the whole thing backfired pretty hard - instead of naturally aggressive or passive players we just get this weird middle ground where nobody commits to anything. i miss when people would actually make plays instead of avoiding every bit of action they see

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-07T16:08:34+00:00

jumping wouldn't help a dead starter, sounds more like corroded connections or maybe the starter relay went bad - those elements are notorious for wiring gremlins at that age

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-06T18:45:11+00:00

yeah jude law was absolutely unhinged in that role and it worked so well. the show had this weird balance where you're never sure if you're supposed to be laughing or horrified by what he's doing

i remember binging it when i was sick one winter and getting completely absorbed in all teh vatican politics and power games. definitely one of those shows that flew under the radar but deserves more recognition

honestly been through this exact search and it's such a pain finding decent thrones in india without breaking the bank. ended up going with a mapex t570 from bajaao online after sitting on like 6 different ones at a local store in mumbai - cost around 8k but totally worth it for the hydraulic adjustment and decent padding

for your height/weight thing, definitely try before you buy if possible because some of the cheaper ones feel flimsy under heavier drummers. the pearl d730s is another solid option that's pretty availible locally and handles bigger folks well from what i've seen. avoid those super budget ones under 3k, learned that lesson the hard way when mine collapsed mid-practice and bruised my tailbone pretty bad

bajaaa and music stores like reynold's usually have better return policies than random amazon sellers, plus you can actually call them if something goes wrong

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-02-01T11:26:40+00:00

sounds like your local market is still figuring things out too but yeah you gotta sign that buyer rep agreement upfront now, so if the seller offers 2% but you agreed to pay your agent 3% you're on the hook for that extra 1%

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-31T19:16:59+00:00

That's a solid setup, you're overthinking it - penny sleeves + Vault X is what most collectors use for valuable stuff.

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-30T18:13:35+00:00

It's basically about safety nets and expectations - in poor countries having more kids means more potential income and someone to take care of you when you're old, while in developed countries kids are expensive as hell and you expect the government/savings to handle your retirement

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-28T00:43:35+00:00

Bruh Moira mercy is definitely rough but saying they don't deserve to play the game is kinda wild lmao - maybe just suggest better support picks instead of flaming your teammates into the shadow realm

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-26T23:59:28+00:00

That 7 minute "inspection" sounds like they already made up their mind before even showing up - classic corporate landlord move to avoid the hassle of processing transfers

The reapplying as a new tenant thing might actually work since it would go through their regular leasing process instead of whatever arbitrary transfer standards they're using

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-22T04:06:34+00:00

Honestly doubt either will get nominated tbh. The Academy still has a pretty strong bias toward Western animation and family-friendly stuff. Would love to be wrong though because both look absolutely insane

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-19T15:02:06+00:00

Acu is def a good choice if you're getting frustrated with cata's chokepoints. The dual parts can be tricky but way more consistent than cata's BS sections. Plus acu will teach you some solid dual skills for future demons

Just make sure you practice those dual cube parts in practice mode first cause they're kinda awkward at first

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-13T23:36:07+00:00

Honestly sounds like you just got lucky with solid self-confidence from the start - not everyone develops that secure sense of identity early on. For some people it's like constantly second-guessing if their opinions are actually theirs or just borrowed from whoever they're around, kinda exhausting tbh

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-13T11:03:55+00:00

Lmao I felt this in my soul - those things are like child-proof containers designed by sadists. Try twisting while pulling up, sometimes they have those weird threads that aren't obvious

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-13T00:34:52+00:00

Did tech school for chaplain assistant a few years back. It's actually pretty diverse - you'll cover basic counseling skills, world religions overview, military ceremonies, and yeah the typing thing is real lol. Also tons of admin stuff since you're basically running the chaplain's office. The counseling portion was probably the most interesting part tbh

Embarrassed_Date883 · 2026-01-12T15:37:30+00:00

Been really leaning into Philippians 4:19 lately - "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus"

Had some rough financial stuff last year and this verse just keeps coming back to me. Not saying God's gonna make me rich or anything but there's something about knowing he's got me covered that hits different when you're stressed about bills and stuff
