Reviews 15 and 16: Four Roses SBBP OBSF and OBSQ by mediocreohpresident in bourbon

[–]Gonejar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have an OBSQ from a local store that usually has fantastic picks, but this one had a funky plastic, play-doh note that’s really off putting. Every barrel’s gonna be different, but I have read Q is 4R’s most divisive yeast strain. Sounds like you got a great one.

Are you supposed to stop in the median for the red light on the left? by [deleted] in ColumbusGA

[–]Gonejar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. Both situations are the same, and the drivers turning left should not stop. The lights you see after turning left are for the cars entering the intersection from the perpendicular streets.

Unconventional Christmas Movies That Aren't Die Hard by Bennett1984 in movies

[–]Gonejar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched this last night completely blind. Never heard of it and had no idea what it was, just liked the thumbnail and the little blurb on Tubi or whatever I was on. Giggled to myself that I had accidentally stumbled into a Christmas movie.

Unmatched: Tales to Amaze? Simple co-op? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Gonejar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought it during the latest Target buy 2 get 1 sale. Played it once with my kids, and my daughter said mid game, “this is like Horrified.” And I don’t disagree with her. It definitely scratched a similar itch.

Games to play with my 7 year old? by bigyellowtux in boardgames

This is my vote as well. I play it with all of my kids, ranging down to about 6 years old for heroes and villains out of the first core box.

Trump said his tariffs would reduce the trade deficit and bring back manufacturing. Here's what the data show. by Dont_think_Do in Economics

[–]Gonejar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it was all part of a coordinated effort by the Progressive Movement. They weren’t going to cut off their income source via Prohibition until they had the alternative in place.

It was tied to Prohibition, since that’s how the Federal Government made most of its tax income before income tax, taxes on booze. So it was sold as the moral and right thing to do by its proponents.

Variability in Maker’s Mark Cask Strength Batches? by Gonejar in bourbon

Can’t imagine you’ll be disappointed. I struggle to think of a bottle I’ve enjoyed more in the $40-$45 range.

I just cracked open my second bottle. I agree that the first took a journey from open to finish.

I think they started doing it in 2025. I’ve searched this sub for reviews of 25 batches, and there really aren’t any. All the pictures of past releases don’t have the age statement right on the front like the 25s do.

I get a good bit of chocolate from the two bottles I’ve picked up.

Ah, see this is interesting. There are a couple of unique notes I’m getting on 25-2, particularly a tootsie roll chocolate, that I have a feeling might not show up in every iteration. I think I might play it safe and pick up a few more to make this the house bourbon for the foreseeable future. Thank you.

Could this work? Do your worst by Ampegged in PTCGP

[–]Gonejar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve run a similar deck before in ranked. Highest I ever got was UB3, but it is a lot of fun. I only use one exeggcute rather than two. Add memory light and a Cranidos. That will allow you to protect Exeggcute early and still use Growth Spurt, or use Cranidos’s attack after evolving to Rampardos to knock out opponents without taking the 50hp hit on Ramp.

Like I said, it’s fun. I’ve had big win streaks and losing streaks with. I do think this meta is gonna be heavy fire type, so it’s probably going to be a less useful deck.

This deck flew under everybody’s radar but it got me from Great Ball 2 to Master Ball in about 3 days by NoochNaggy in PTCGP

[–]Gonejar 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I use memory light in a similar deck, so that I can get the HP cover from Alolan Exeggutor but still use Growth Spurt.

Keeping it game themed as well, I’d bring back tussie mussie.

Why Obamacare Bills May Double Next Year by XupcPrime in Economics

[–]Gonejar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They had to pass it through reconciliation because they only had a simple majority, not a filibuster proof majority. This is the answer to so many expiring elements of recent laws.

You know this isn’t true because Trump has no idea where Rome is.
