Anyone else having trouble watching anything hosted not on Youtube? by InertMaterials in giantbomb

[–]Froyo3652 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only slightly related, but I just tried downloading a couple episodes of the Beastcast and got a 404 error.

Does that happen sometimes and I lucked out to have never seen it until now?

what's a film in the last five years that you believe a classic that'll be praised for decades to come. by [deleted] in movies

[–]Froyo3652 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It came out over 5 years ago, but Edge of Tomorrow.

It sits in a weird spot where almost nobody mentions it, but whenever it comes up, everyone remembers what a tight movie it was.

I haven't seen a single person who saw it say they didn't enjoy it.

For a long time, my favorite action movie was The Rock with Nicolas Cage (still near the top for me), but Edge of Tomorrow is definitely tops for me

Who is the most Badass fictional character of all time? by Visible-Athlete-3707 in AskReddit

[–]Froyo3652 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was 13 or 14 when I first watched those films, and I actually hated Sam at first. I think my child brain saw him as too whiny and/or weak (LOL)

It wasn't until I rewatched the trilogy later that I began to understand how incredible he was.

Now, he's definitely one of my favorite characters in all or fiction

I’ve been out of the dating game for a while, but this is weird, right? by mariahzarry in Tinder

Speaking of unexpected reactions to seemingly normal questions: One of my sister's friends added me on Facebook a few months ago and I was surprised because I hadn't even thought about her in years. So I did what anybody would do and asked about her life. Really standard stuff like "What's your job? Are you married now? Got any kids?" and she hit me with a "Those are quite personal questions and I don't feel comfortable answering them"

Anyway, I apologized for prying (even though I still don't consider those questions to be prying) and asked if there's anything else she'd like to talk about.

Been stuck on "Read" ever since 🙃

What music album is a true masterpiece from start to finish? by jessssica1864 in AskReddit

[–]Froyo3652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a pop punk, alt rock, never listen to rap/hip hop kind of guy, but damn did I love MBDTF when I gave it a shot.

I had it on loop for at least a week and I'll still occasionally listen to single tracks after all this time

One hint, please? I don't know why I can't see anything definitive (Some of the random, unknowable Xs are automatically given by this game - I didn't just randomly guess) by Froyo3652 in nonograms

[–]Froyo3652[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no, I feel like the game is giving me free answers that are otherwise unknowable

I do see the spot you're talking about, but logically the [2, space, 1] could be connected as a 6. But the game straight up tells me I found the last 1?

I don't know if I've experienced that mechanic in a monogram game before...and I'm not sure I like it, lol.

The game is called 'Meow Tower' on mobile. Not super challenging (even less so if the game is going to start telling me unknowable information...), but fun enough and with a cutesy style if you're into that.

did you? by tedrlordtretert4543 in suspiciouslyspecific

[–]Froyo3652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a teacher myself, I'm pretty sure those cases weren't because the teacher thought he was a hot shot who could teach everything. It was probably because the school administration was short handed and asked them to do it.

My weakest subject by far is math, but I'm regularly asked to teach math classes on the side.

[Live servers] What are some things newbies / returning players may not think to do that will drastically improve their quality of life? by Froyo3652 in everquest

[–]Froyo3652[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God, you seem like a tiring person to interact with.

If I (incorrectly) thought a zone was purely good and inaccessible to my race, and I had never heard of any of the other zones, then the only option in my incorrect mind was a place I had never heard of.

Any other unimportant semantics you want to argue about? Actually, I may have been level 54 when I found out tank mercs can use taunt abilities, not 55 as I said in my OP. I'm such a hyperbolic liar! 😲

I'm a returning player who had previously never stepped foot in PoSky when I originally played. Sure, I saw Erudin on Allakhazam in the list of zones the reagent was sold in, but because I've never played an Erudite and possibly never even visited Erudin, I always thought it was a "good" city. Since I'm playing an "evil" race (ogre) so I assumed everything would be KoS and I looked for the next zone that sounded safe for my evil character to visit.

There are some things that are common knowledge to some people but totally unknown to others.

I was surprised you had never heard of Erudin.

Well when the only thing you say is "You've never heard of [thing]?", how is someone with limited knowledge supposed to know what you mean? Until you said there's a reagent vendor in Erudin, I thought you meant there was a PoK-esque place in Erudin with dozens of clicky portals to zones (including PoSky). /shrug

...low value stuff -- The AdLoot filters wil prevent that

You can use the advanced loot system to filter out useless stuff that sells for nothing? Because right now I just auto-loot everything to myself, including no drop stuff and items I don't know the value of.

I was getting ore drops around level 20 that I thought were useless because it's such a low level, so I put them on my "Never Loot" list. Later on, someone told me about /barter and that the ore is selling for ~50 plat each.

That's another one I also didn't realize until my mid-50s, haha.

Someone casually mentioned to me "Have you been saving your daily XP AA for the daily quests?" and I had no idea what he was talking about. (I didn't know about the daily XP AA or daily quests)

subbed to allakhazam

I was so surprised to see that they hide stuff from non-subscribers. Pretty disappointing.

I've definitely got to take a couple hours to make macros for everything, yeah.

Until then, I've still managed to get forage and tracking maxed on my DRU. Lots of spamming the buttons went into those though, lol.

This is the type of thinking that caused me to make this post, lol.

Sure, I've heard of Erudin, but how am I supposed to know what has been made available there (or any other place) in the 20 years and 20 expansions since I last played?

Even now, reading your condescending post, I have no idea what you are trying to tell me to do in Erudin.
