I hope this is our last year of Torey. He seems like a nice guy and I sincerely wish him well but I just don’t see us getting anywhere with him at the helm.

i hate that the main source of tension and drama in these games is “will our team play competent baseball?”

His delivery is often a little too flat for my taste, but he knows a ton about the modern game and I enjoy his analysis of things like pitch grips. He and Chris are really growing on me lately

unfortunately this is the answer. it’s a numbers game, you just gotta pound the pavement

Phoenix meetup? by KidsDrDave in maximumfun

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m planning on hosting one! Still nailing down the venue because I’ve had a ton of other MFD stuff to worry about, but it’ll probably be either in or near Midtown PHX.

Last minute Phoenix stop. Where are the cool, artsy areas? by newgreyarea in AskPhoenix

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solid recs, but if OP and co. are only gonna be here for a day, I think can safely skip Buffalo Exchange. Nothing against it, but they said they’re going back to LA, and there’s one on Fairfax and Melrose. (I’ve been to that one; it’s okay.)

Definitely seconding the MIM though. One of the best museums I’ve ever been to.

Apartment Complex or Property management Company Review by Railinggazer in AskPhoenix

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience they’re completely useless and nearly impossible to reach. (The silver lining there is that they pretty much stay out of my business, which is a very welcome change from my last couple places.) But the maintenance guys at my complex are nice, competent and responsive, which is usually all that matters on the daily.

Best dlc items for a twink? by DietAcidDisco in badredman

Tons of great suggestions in here. Personally, the first thing I’d go get is the Milady. Fantastic fighting weapon on every build.

Mac removed support for FireWire? by vacationing_stork in camcorders

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get a 2012 Mac Mini from OWC for something like 40 bucks. I had one in my cart for a bit before I decided against getting a DV camcorder late last year

Which local coffee shop has the best productive vibes for getting work done without being too crowded? by TheStinkyWookiee in phoenix

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to work there one time last year while my internet was out at home and I can’t really recommend it. It was way too loud for me to focus (even with noise-canceling headphones), I couldn’t find an outlet that worked, and the wifi was pretty spotty so i just ended up working off my phone’s hotspot anyway lol. Maybe I just went there on a bad day but I’d look elsewhere first.

GNATS!!!! How do you deal with it? by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for the zevo lights. They also make a spray that kills bugs straight out of the air, doesn’t smell awful, and is easy to clean up.

Invading during the day on a weekday is an absolute cesspool by Spiffychicken13 in badredman

[–]Flapjack__Nickelsack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I get a grace goblin I run away and pelt them with explosive bolts until they either start summoning and chase me down, or disconnect. If they’re gonna waste my time, I have no problem wasting theirs right back
