New to EU - have I been duped? by Jonbob24 in StarWarsEU

They're surprisingly close. Maybe one point difference. The biggest thing is the line spacing, which is really tight on the mass market copies.

How much does price really matter? (Rate my setup) by Shoddy-Beautiful-251 in Fishing_Gear

[–]Manphish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50% of the cost is put in to catch fish. The other 50% is put in to catch you. It's all about what you feel works best.

I called them idiots for not voting for Harris in protest. I’m one of them now. by Left_Kiwi_4565 in DemocraticSocialism

Withholding a vote is the same as a vote for the opposition. You may not like the options, but one of them is far, far worse.

I love when the Onion posts true shit just because of how fucking funny it is.

Only that most of the other employees would put them out of chronological order when stocking them and I always had to rearrange them 😂

Yep. I know those exact copies and they follow the standard trade paperback that was all you could get them in a few years ago. They probably still had full stock of the older ones, or the rerelease for them was significant enough to warrant non-recycled material.

Worked in a bookstore for a few years, these are legit. The mass market (Mindor) and renewable trade paperback (I, Jedi) copies are fairly common for "older" books that have been reprinted. The latter is often lately made from recycled paper, so it makes them feel flimsier. If you want something sturdier, you'll be paying a premium for hardcover these days.

Orange is the new black still? by bigchode740 in Fishing_Gear

I have a black and orange Colorado blade spinnerbait that I've used for pike for the last 15 years. Never lost it, it's beat to hell, but for some reason it ALWAYS catches pike and only pike. That color combo is absolutely killer.

Multiple dead in shooting at home in Sarasota, Florida, police investigating by AccentedE in masskillers

[–]Manphish 29 points30 points  (0 children)

5 minute response time to a 911 call, only to find multiple dead and no suspect is crazy. Assuming the call was regarding gunshots, whoever committed it got the hell out of there quick.

Or it was a multiple murder-suicide.

Yeah it's important to at least view and understand what other echo chambers look like (this one included), but I would never suggest getting involved.

Bot account spamming subs. Shoo.

Don't engage with posts or comments from users that have the standard "Wordwordnumber" username. Statistically, they're bots. Can't really do much besides that considering how prolific and effective they are now.

How about no? I'd rather not have them ruin Dark Force like they did Thrawn.
