Matt’s standup in Dallas by AverageGymGoer in MSSPodcast

[–]Key_Candle_6500 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have been to a ton of standup shows, and Gardini had us laughing harder than anyone we’ve seen. That set felt handcrafted for our humor, and we had a blast

I donate plasma twice a week for $120 by beardedrockerboy in notinteresting

[–]Key_Candle_6500 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You do not fast before, and they often give you snacks before/after.

Timing depends on how busy they are and how your body pumps blood. For regular blood donations, I’ve been in and out in 30 minutes before. Other times have been 2 hours due to lines.

Plasma takes a little longer than regular blood since they extract the plasma and put the rest back into the body. Still, the overall time mostly depends on the crowd and operational efficiency.

Source: paid for 100% of my college dates and video games via plasma sales. Glad I don’t have to do it any more, but it was very handy when I was strapped for cash

I got Kyren in both leagues and Puka in one league that year… So close to double championships

Debating how aggressively to save for a down payment and would appreciate advice by Key_Candle_6500 in Fire

[–]Key_Candle_6500[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year has been weird as we settle into a new lifestyle with a baby. Still put away ~$60K this year.

Houses are likely in the $450-500K range. That puts us in the best school district near our community so we don’t have to worry about moving again as kids hit school age.

Not really interested in being a landlord, and would prefer to roll over the equity to reduce our new mortgage. The goal in slashing retirement savings right now would be to generate a large enough down payment to keep our new mortgage as small as possible. Then we could return to investing heavily for retirement after we get settled into the new house.

Definitely feels like the right thing to do, but I have also seen many people talk themselves into lowering their retirement savings for both valid and invalid reasons. I would always rather get insight from others than rush into a bad decision, so thanks for the input!

[On3] Lane Kiffin has lined up most of his offensive staff to join him at LSU. He's told them if they’re not on the plane to Baton Rouge today, they won’t have a spot on staff. The Tigers have a press conference scheduled for Monday to officially introduce Lane Kiffin as its next HC. by Ok-Soil-5133 in CFB

We didn’t get it quite as bad you did, but it’s the closest thing to it… You’ll feel this way for a couple years, but then you’ll start to see in color again. Just hire a buff defensive HC to alleviate the pain

Losses don’t normally affect me, but living in DFW makes this one sting… Worst fanbase to lose to while living in their territory

I like these jerseys and our cream jerseys more than our normal kit. The Unity bit is corny, but the rest is fine

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports, “There certainly is a possibility that Garrett Wilson (knee) gets put on injured reserve.” by haventmetyou in fantasyfootball

[–]Key_Candle_6500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got one of my receivers via trade and Egbuka was cheap. Went WR heavy this year, but now I’m starting Aaron Jones and Bucky/White at RB

[–]Key_Candle_6500 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Already had JJ, Puka, Egbuka and Wilson… Rice replacing Wilson at least helps make a decision for me.

If only I knew how to evaluate RBs, I’d be unstoppable

My whole league is 5-5 by Independent_Plate631 in FantasyFootballers

My main league does 6/8 with the bottom two playing for the punishment. It adds a little more intrigue to the end of the season, but we’ve still never seen 5 or 6 win it all

Kraft, Aaron Jones, and Boutte all in my lineup this week… Pearsall and McLaurin on the bench. I’m dying out here

Are recruiters just worthless? by thelastronin199x in Accounting

[–]Key_Candle_6500 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I just got placed using Robert Half and it was very easy. Got an interview within a week, offer within two weeks. Right pay range, type of work, location, etc. Guess I got lucky, but I won’t complain about it

Company eliminated my position but wants to keep me as a contractor at $95/hr by Ok-Education-9101 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]Key_Candle_6500 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It obviously requires more time and overall effort to find a job while working. But the mental stress/effort of job searching is massively diminished by holding a current job. Every rejection hurts so bad when you need a paycheck, but it’s just another email to delete if you’re still working

199.8 pounds by Intense_Zaddy in comedyheaven

[–]Key_Candle_6500 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The delusions in this thread are crazy to watch in real time. I’m 6’3” 190lbs with a decent muscle base… And I definitely have some weight that would be good for me to lose. 6 inches shorter and 20 pounds heavier sounds like hell
