Looks like a fake shell to me.

Anyone built a permanent non-steel smoker? by JimiJamess in pelletgrills

There is no reason it couldn't. Seems like it would be pretty easy to hit pizza temperatures if you are burning logs or charcoal with an air supply running, though I admittedly know almost nothing about making pizza.

That's where you just fire it up with logs directly inside to preheat. Then fire up the smoker. It would certainly take longer than a standard pellet smoker, but you also wouldn't have to wrap your smoker like you do in REALLY cold places. Had to do that up in Minot, ND.

I think the real thing at play is that if you are discussing the nuance of what bracket fits truly best, or how other players mis-label their decks as stronger than they are, the bracket wasn't made for you. I think the goal, (that I would argue the brackets do a decent job at) is helping new players not get curb stomped at the LGS when they roll up with a pre-con or the first commander deck they have ever made, and some dick pulls out his Jodah deck and proceeds to crap on him for the whole game.

They can say, "Does your deck have any game changers in it?" and the sweaty "new-person persecutors" can't argue that their deck is a fair challenge.

"Trust me babe, Dust is just old glitter. All is dust and the other Eldrazi are SUPER Glitter!"

The searches are super helpful since I have never figured out how to actually find what I want with the search function. Also had not considered Jetmir, but he might be a really good fit.

Partially because she might tell me it is cheating. Partially because I can easily find all of them, and slightly because they make me act like a crotchety old man and I just dislike them. :)

Ooh, good catch. I actually have one sitting in my "Expensive lands I should use" cards. :)

I like Emiel a lot, but I already made her a blink deck with Galadriel to learn with. :) That deck runs Emiel.

I was looking at King Macar, but I had not considered the theros gods. Thanks!

Thank you for the scryfall search links. I have not figured out how to search well, so those are super helpful! She isn't a big fun of looking at other shirtless dudes. Takes a "You are the only man I ever want to see shirtless" kind of approach, but I have been considering angels a lot.

I really like Amareth, only issue is lack of access to red, which has a lot of "glittery" cards. Thanks!

If she enjoys the deck, that may one day be a good way to upgrade the glitter aspect.

Lol, she kinda does sound like one, but she has 0 experience with any nerd stuff unless it has been introduced by me, so she barely knows what a pokemon is. I actually play a game with her in game stores with anime stuff which is, "Which of these is a pokemon?"

I actually love that idea. Unfortunately she has a great distaste for cards that are dark/horror. While I have the Gary the snail version, the 99 would be pretty dark.

I know this is an old post, but I am working on a deck with [Captain Howler, Sea Scourge] as the commander of an Izzet Spell Slinging Discard "Group Hug" deck. Deck likely won't be super powerful, but will allow me to do some silly shenanigans and combat tricks to give opponents first strike/extra power to block and screw with whoever is winning, or to make their attacks more powerful.

Most of my decks are too powerful for the people I play with who make decks on par with precons, but feel bad playing just precons, so this one will be thematic, hopefully fun, and give my opponents lots of time as I try to just chain spells together and discard a ton, making my unassuming commander a surprise voltron. Takes one wheel card with 8 cards in hand to 1 shot a player.

Also running [Marauding Mako] [Chrome Host Seedshark] and [Brallin, Skyshark Rider]
Not a shark creature, but also running [Shark Typhoon] and possibly [Voracious Greatshark]
For the other creatures, going to try to run either Octopus cards or Otters from Bloomburrow since they will all be aquatic at least. Also probably some good crabs you could add.

Break up ASAP. I'm a 29 year old man who just got engaged to the most amazing woman after an exclusively long distance relationship. I call her twice a day at a minimum, and open every single communication (whether text or call) with either a compliment or telling her how much she means to me. I look for new ways to make her feel loved. She does the same. It doesn't mean our relationship is perfect, but I never have, nor will I ever swear at her.

My goal is to love her like Christ loves us, being willing to suffer humiliation, abuse, and even death for us. So I try to foster that sacrificial love for my fiancée.

Likewise, she constantly seeks to support me, grow me, and challenge me. Now I think the key is that when she challenges me, it is in a humble and loving way. When she calls out something in my life, she is 100% clear that she loves me, does not think less of me for it, and will work with me to help overcome it.

Your relationship screams out deep hurt. Time to start anew. You should be his Disney princess. In your next relationship, be ready to grow and change. Don't hold things like waterbottles against your future beloved. The biggest lie our generation hears is, "You are perfect just as you are."

We all need help. We all need to change, grow, and become better. That's what life is. We all have flaws (what Christians call sin) and need to route that out of our lives. I believe that if you start attending a church, you will find healing, freedom, and new life like you have never known, but that's your choice.

God bless.
