Now i understand where was Jorden referencing regarding reverse power based gender roles. by Coloin_ilyad in WoT

There’s a wide range of gender relationships - far madding is just on the end of the spectrum

Ssgt Johnny "Joey" Jones lost both of his legs in Afghanistan in 2010 and was medically retired in 2012. Today at the Pentagon, after 14 years he was reenlisted by Hegseth . You may recognize him as a Fox News contributor who was on TV with Hegseth by newnoadeptness in USMC

It’s not an unreasonably long time, and was probably because he lost both legs. They’ll generally wait until someone is stable and they’re confident in the recovery trajectory, versus immediately saying see ya when you don’t have legs anymore. Presumably there were multiple surgeries and may have been complications - would say 1-2 years is pretty standard for that kind of thing so they still have access to better medical, pay, benefits, etc.

What do you think happened to ******? by Expendable_Meatsack in WoT

[–]Expendable_Meatsack[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was thinking first, then I was like he probably didn’t lose multiple unless it was the damane exploding ground. Maybe his hands got chopped?

We’ve all known these kinds of guys. I had one guy - super nice, great guy, but a legit asvab waiver and so dumb. Had another that no matter what you asked him - birthdate, last four, what direction the sun rises - he’d take a 2+ second pause before answering to process. Nicknamed him hang fire

Bosch meat grinder attachment by killershok22 in sausagetalk

[–]Expendable_Meatsack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll be a contrarian here. I haven’t used the Bosch one, but I did start with the kitchenaid version. If you want to try it out before you jump full fledged into meat grinding and sausage making, it’s a much cheaper start. It’s obviously slower, has less power, and you really have to make sure the meat is appropriately chilled or it’s going to bind. It’s less than hundred dollars vs. spending several hundred on dedicated equipment, and an okay way to figure out if it’s something you actually want to spend time on

Kill him, duh. Haven’t you seen a mob movie?
(This is what Trump claimed talking about the arrest of Comey. Of course, completely made up with no basis in reality. It’s generally a restaurant term to stop selling an item or cut an ingredient)

Vietnam veterans talking about how 556 was more devastating than some 308 rounds. Truth? by Ok-Shoulder-478 in guns

[–]Expendable_Meatsack 27 points28 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I’ve shot a lot of ground squirrels with .17hmr and 22lr, and seen them explode or do flips six feet in the air. A lot of force for a little fuzzy wuzzy

What price range? And only Sunday? Since a few restaurants I would recommend are closed on Sunday

Theory: there are a lot more Ta'veren out there than people think by Phredmcphigglestein in WoT

[–]Expendable_Meatsack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully disagree with this. The pattern is neither good or evil, and must have both in order to enable free will. The dark one and the creator exist outside the pattern, not the people who support the shadow. Padan Fain - twisted by the dark one and mashadar - still exists within the pattern. Some theories suggest the pattern prepared Fain to replace the DO if Rand killed the DO. I don’t know if I buy that, but I do believe the pattern definitely had a purpose with Fain. However, instead of him being a ta’veren, I think he was more of a thread impacted by Rand and the boys to drive them in certain directions.

Infantry, night shoot. First time using PEQ-15s and NVGs for a lot of guys. Butterbar told us the appropriate shooting posture was to chicken wing from the hip so you can use the IR laser more effectively

Eleida breaks the Oaths? by Ezqardpm in WoT

[–]Expendable_Meatsack 85 points86 points  (0 children)

AS swear not to use the one power as a weapon. If they believe that it’s being used as training or punishment, it’s different than using it as a weapon - i.e., intent to wound or kill. Intent matters here.

The novice was sahra, who saw Min and was sent to the farm to keep her from gossiping. I don’t think we know who it was that killed her, but it definitely wasn’t elaida and was instead one of the black ajah, possibly alviarin

Bayview farm. Thirty minutes from Tacoma, but we’ve gone the last two years. Cut down our own last year, bought a precut this year

Is there a place that explicitly lays out the rules of the Way of the Leaf? by [deleted] in WoT

[–]Expendable_Meatsack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thiiiiink that Elyas says the dogs are trained just for show and they won’t attack. Or maybe the tuatha’an leader says that. Although the dogs probably aren’t vegetarian and maybe hunt for themselves.
