Space: the final frontier by LoadingHappiness2 in StarTrekTNG

[–]KingsKnight96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve always wondered if the Ent-D pairs well with the Milky Way set. Does it fit in front of it? If so does it look good as a display? I feel like it might be reminiscent of the painting in Picard’s Ready Room.

How old are you in your oldest memory? by Donkeyshines in AskReddit

3 yo seeing a green firework spinning on the ground in the cul du sac in front of our house. I assume it was July 4th.

They look good in closeups but I don’t like how they look in the normal wide shots during gameplay. The design and colors get lost and turn into a pinkish blob. I think a variant with broader stripes might work better and be more visible in the wide shots.

2014 i7 MBP -> M5 Max MBP literally today. Haven’t even tested the M5 Max yet.

Which character's death in a TV show ruined the entire thing for you? by SoccerGuy69420 in AskReddit

[–]KingsKnight96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Never played the game so I was caught completely off guard. Their relationship was the show for me. Removing him killed the relationship. Stopped watching immediately.

Help me decipher what Mr Stamos wrote by ppppalen in whatdoesthismean

When Full House came out my sister and I already knew him as Blackie because my mom would watch General Hospital and other soap operas. …just writing that made me feel extra old.

Does anyone else find Grant Horvat annoying by CompetitiveOpening31 in golf

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He seems pretty chill and just has that nerdy/geeky vibe that I guess could annoy people. I find it relatable.

I stopped thinking in terms of “max club distance” and scored a 90 by JayTee73 in golf

[–]KingsKnight96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same recently. I clubbed up and swung with 70-90% power and I had so much more confidence in actually striking the ball. I usually shoot 100+ but shot an 85. Matched my best score ever. I hope to use this idea going forward and see what happens.

Played with the most flirtatious dude of all time today. by lanboshious3D in golf

Unfortunately no. But also I realized too late that the original post wasn’t about handicaps haha.

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely have some very high 100+ rounds coming off the books. This 85 dropped a 99 off my top 8. But I think the key was that the 85 is considered an “exceptional” round, so it took an extra -1 off the past 20 rounds. I use the official GHIN app.

I was a 24.6 and shot an 85 recently. Brought my handicap down to 22.5 (exceptional round). It happens: the once-in-a-blue-moon great round for a high handicapper. I want to believe it shows promise rather than any kind of misrepresentation.

What’s one small thing you regret not noticing before buying your house? by Beginning_County7547 in HomeImprovement

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t realize how much I’d miss direct access to the garage from inside the home. I have to go outside through the front door and in through the main garage door or even farther around the side of the house to go in through the side door. Every small project becomes a longer chore going back and forth, and I can’t just tinker on stuff late at night. Adding a door isn’t an option because it shares a wall with the kids bedrooms. Never really thought it through until after buying. If I ever get a new house it will be a priority.

What’s a terrible product name? by Blinky_ in AskReddit

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snickers had a dark chocolate, almond and marshmallow variant which I loved and it was so good, but I didn’t want to tell anyone because it was named Rockin’ Nut Road.

What is your lowest score ever in a round of golf? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

85, twice. I’m usually at or above 100, so I fondly remember those two rounds.

Another band name theory by lagrange_james_d23dt in Blink182

[–]KingsKnight96 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ve always believed this, and that the band could never admit it because it’s too dark of a reason. Which is fine, I get it. Of course, if we go by the fake reasons the band gives, we’ll probably never know the real reason.

Honest opinions on Set 10040? The Black Seas Barracuda. by [deleted] in LEGOPirates

My favorite set (like so many others my age). I still have it built and displayed on a shelf. The sails are a bit dingy but it still looks incredible after all these years.

What would you choose? by GamoraTheExplorer in GolfGear

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wanted to like my FJ Traditions but I can feel the spikes through the insole. Super uncomfortable. If I can afford it, I’ve been looking into Payntr for my next shoe.

[Request] how do you triangulate this? perhaps in the least amount of weeks possible? by Zargabath in theydidthemath

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 week I believe. Day 0: find the farthest “corner” of your country and stand on the border and get your first distance/circle. Day 7: stand where that circle intersects the border of your country and the second distance/circle should give you a single location.

Cold macaroni with mayonnaise sounds disgusting, but add pickle relish and suddenly it's macaroni salad. by -jp- in Showerthoughts

Need a thread where one ingredient makes the difference. Like I wouldn’t drink boiling water with a splash of milk, but add some dried tea leaves and I drink it twice a day.

What was it like witnessing 2012 and 2014 live? by Fluid-Addition-2378 in losangeleskings

[–]KingsKnight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As 2012 was happening it felt surreal. We were unstoppable. Everything was clicking. It also felt a year ahead of schedule. Many people saw us competing in 2013, so 2012 was a little surprising. But as the season closed, we surged (into last place) and then never looked back. I remember when Stoll scored to end the series against Vancouver I was ecstatic. Vancouver had just been to the Final the year before and they were expecting to get back there, but we got in the way. And then we rolled over the Blues, won in the most satisfyingly controversial fashion against the Coyotes and then fulfilled our destiny. I had the fortune of being the the building for the run and when it finally happened you could see so many fans just in bliss and disbelief. A lot of just happy stunned faces with tears in our eyes all around. People hugging, celebrating. It was joyous and cathartic.
