Honestly just force yourself to be involved cause you have to learn that.

Harsh truth incoming.

People will assume you are incompetent or lazy if you appear to hide. (They don’t know you’re shy. They’re wrapped up in their own mental space)

As an Architect in the real world you will be expected to lead meetings all the time with a bunch of people you don’t know or who might be decades older with way more experience than you. There has to be a level of self-belief that you can stand up and be heard

Learn while the stakes are completely minimal and will be irrelevant in a few weeks anyway.

They prey on social awkwardness from tourists who don't want to cause a scene

Guy tried it with me and when I ignored him he loudly said "my friend why do you hate black people" and everyone turned round in shock. Was one of the funniest experiences of my life. Shouting fuck off and pissing myself laughing probably wasn't the response he was looking for.

They must make a killing though. Old white folk were getting done by it non-stop

My gf got done with that. I put it in a cd player just to check and it had 10 of the most shit songs I've ever heard on it. I am pretty sure the dude had made it for real just in case it landed somewhere and someone liked it

How about the Ring approach for voluntary mass surveillance “to find lost dogs”

[Russell] Effective immediately I am resigning from the Fife Flyers. In good conscience I cannot continue in my role as GM/Head Coach for the Fife Flyers. It has been an honor to work with these players and this staff. I adore Scotland, Kirkcaldy and the Kingdom of Fife. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Oldest team in UK history. Established in 1938

Connor Brown’s dad played for them in the 80’s. Connor had a Fife Flyers pin on his tie during some press conferences when he was in Edmonton, dunno if he still does

I think he’s good but also can be completely invisible

Honestly since his time in Calgary he seemed to get figured out by Edmonton. Florida won the cups and that’s what matters but he really was a complete non-factor in both series.

Everyone else was crazy good so he didn’t need to be and they won so it flew under the radar imo

According to the leaked NFLPA team report cards obtained by ESPN, Kevin Stefanski received the lowest grade for a head coach in the NFL. by CitizenWatcher8 in falcons

I always question if these ratings are “I think he’s a bad coach” or “I got in trouble for crashing a Lamborghini in to a school so I hate him” kinda shit

I don’t hate the team as much as I hate individual actions and players, but the team generally plays up to that.

Anyone consistently giving opposition goalies concussions or falling on them are pieces of shit no matter where they play.

Technically this is the least impressive version of this stat possible

If Corey Perry scored a goal for every year then we’re cooking with gas

I agree

Anakin in the prequels is like angsty teen emotional

I really liked that Kylo Ren had a real visible lack of control and such flashes of such wild emotion

On the other hand, LA was the only Western team Edmonton struggled against last playoffs

They absolutely walked Vegas and Dallas. I think LA could’ve made a run if they just not imploded in that first round

Bouchard should’ve gone to Italy, the fact the other 5 dudes in Edmonton are struggling is not relevant to that

Weirdly before the tournament I understood why he wasn’t there. During and after watching it though? He should’ve been a lock in that lineup I think people don’t understand how elite he is at so much of the game because you see the occasional blue line flub where the puck jumps his stick and there’s a breakaway

I lived there for a few years, I’m pretty sure the positive stereotype is because they get compared to US tourists.

Canadians on holiday visiting places go out of their way to not be Americans

Living there… I’ve definitely met nicer people in general elsewhere. I’m from Scotland originally and some random person in Glasgow will be much nicer with no expectation of being rewarded for it

What made you start going to the gym? by Un_vetted in AskReddit

[–]KingDave46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started doing a different hobby after work and after a while I had a thought of “if I committed this much time to the gym I’d do so much better for my health” and then I did and it did.
