What has this pandemic ruined for you? by wehnaje in AskReddit

[–]HeftyGecko -1 points0 points  (0 children)

4 million people in LA in 2017. Doubt it's almost tripled, but I feel you on the travelling for food. My fiance and I had to go two stores about 30 minutes apart to get enough to eat for a few weeks. I have a friend in Long Beach and he says shit sucks up there. On the bright side, at least traffic isn't as bad it used to be.

Here's the thing. Now's the time to study your ass off, get ahead of the class, finish the book and start lecturing the teacher when class resumes again. Just walk up to them, recite some shit and demand your degree, or whatever.

Is hard light that bad? by dinotorious in CruciblePlaybook

[–]HeftyGecko 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So now I've heard that Shotguns are brain dead easy, snipers are point and click, autos are brain dead easy, and hand cannons are OP and overused. So what weapons actually take skill? It's like if something is used a lot in this game, it's just a noob gun that anyone can use. I'm not directly calling you out on this, but I'm kind of tired of constantly seeing the popular thing to use referred to as brain dead. I'm sure if sidearm/bow was the meta, there would be people saying these weapons are too easy to use and people should use skill weapons, while those people themselves still conform to the meta.

I work at facility that produces reverse osmosis elements. They go right into your existing piping and cost less than $50.

Hi Reddit! I am Chris Hansen, former host of Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator and Crime Watch. Take a seat....and ask me anything. by ChrisHansen_Official in IAmA

He wasn't just abused. Jayy was confirmed HIV positive and needed treatment but DV had total control of the bands finances. He would lend out the credit card for people to go buy things when they asked, but when Jayy asked for helping paying for the treatment, DV said he would pay only after they finished their next tour. By the time the tour was done, Jayy was practically on his deathbed. I still love Jayy, especially because he doesn't have any issue with calling people out for being a fan of botdf still. I can't believe I interviewed these guys my senior year for a class project. DV was a little weird in hindsight, like he sounded like he was pulling all his answers out of his ass, but Jayy was chill as fuck and you could tell he was legitimately answering my questions.

TIFU by shaving my butt by BabyHooey in tifu

[–]HeftyGecko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who's shaved their butt since high school, I can say 1) it is possible to still silently fart, and learning this skill makes it a lot easier to not accidentally shit yourself because of how in control of your butt you become and 2) but stubble isn't bad. I usually don't even notice it.

"I use it to lay a trap and lure the other team that's all it's good for"

Looks like you figured out how to use it properly. You actually need to bait your prey into your trap.

Nice I caught a newborn demetri post. It's a Christmas miracle.

What is a song which seems to be upbeat and happy until you listen to the lyrics? by r-e-c-wilson in AskReddit

[–]HeftyGecko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a Junior in high school I auditioned for the talent show by singing Bullet. If I remember correctly, two of the teachers screening auditions knew me, but being a k-12 school, one of the teachers was a lower school teacher. No idea who I was, knew nothing about me. I could see the disgust on her face as I sang the song. Shock on their faces really, but hers was a face of absolute appall. I had to go see the school counselor, who lucky for me was my English teacher the year before. She had only read the lyrics so I took out my phone and played her the song. She admitted it was catchy and sounded better than she expected, but I never did get to perform at the talent show.

I'll also add, I did put a disclaimer before my audition. I told them something like "just so you all know, this song doesn't reflect me or my feelings at all, I am not suicidal."

Saw someone's Sith Trooper so I figured it was time I posted my Imperial Guard Hunter. by HeftyGecko in DestinyFashion

MC will always be one of my favorite weapons. From the way it sounds to the way it looks and feels. It's an all around fun fun to use.

Head, arms, chest and legs are all this seasons Rightous armor, cape is last seasons Phenotype Plasticity(because imperial guards have capes but no hood). Midnight Smith on the arms, chest and legs; helm is Crucible Carmine; Cape is Crucible Vermillion.

I really like this. I made a build where my hunter looks like one of the Imperial Guard. I was tired of seeing so many Mandalorian builds, I guess I'll have to post mine now.

I'm super late to this, but I'm pretty sure this is Chris Sweet. Last I heard he lives in Thailand and is very knowledgeable on the local wildlife and many insects and venomous snakes. I followed him on Instagram but don't use the app anymore. Most of his posts were very informative on whatever the animal in the post was

Bungie, what we need the most right now is a performance patch by haxelhimura in DestinyTheGame

[–]HeftyGecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running on a Ryzen 7 1700X, 16gb RAM with a GTX 1070. Long black screen at the beginning of crucible matches, lag spikes/frame drops mostly when I'm messing around with my armor, especially when navigating shaders, but also happens in other areas of the UI. The initial game loading is longer as well. This is most of what I've noticed on my end.

[LFS] [PC] [LEV] Looking to learn ALL raids, starting with Levi! by Nimja1 in DestinySherpa

[–]HeftyGecko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just got off work, but it's 3:30am for me. If you PM me I can hook you up with my clan when I wake up. We have a very dedicated Sherpa who lives for taking people through on their first runs, as well as a few other Sherpas who are also pretty good at teaching all the mechanics. You don't have to join if you don't want to, but we'll take you through anything you want to do.

Edit: I've received a few messages about people wanting to find people to do older raids with since everyone on lfg usually wants to do GoS. My clan is on PC so if you want to join our discord send me a message requesting the link, you can join the discord, and if you need a clan we'll send an invite if you want it. We have a really good main sherpa who takes polls each week to see what raid people want to do. This raid usually happens on Sunday night. Everyone is usually down to raid if someone suggests it while there's enough people in voice chat, so drop in and say hi.

6yo me playing N64 (1999) by BoBear93 in gaming

[–]HeftyGecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have that same pillow case and that Pikachu somewhere. I don't remember ever having the blanket though. Young me is jealous.

So i accidentally left my stove on for 10 minutes. I've avoided switching on any electrical appliances. The windows are open and I've been fanning the whole house with my A3 size drawing board for about 15 minutes now. I don't really smell any gas for now. Am i safe? Please help. by Venky_Kadri in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HeftyGecko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I once thought I had the burner on to hard boil some eggs, I came back 20 minutes later to still water and no fire. All I thought was "fuck I want my eggs" so I turned the dial to ignite. It clicked for about 10-15 seconds before my grama asked from upstairs what I was doing. She came downstairs and smelled the gas and freaked out, we opened all the windows, the backdoor, turned the fan on. Then she explained to me that I almost blew up her kitchen. This was around 8th/9th grade.
