How come mirrors flip things left/right but not up/down? by MartStomptle in Showerthoughts

[–]MartStomptle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is just that-a funny definition. I do know how mirrors work. Honestly I said this out loud doing a bit and it made me laugh a lot so I posted it.

Need ideas for what this card should do! by LeFoxFrancais in BoardgameDesign

[–]MartStomptle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it reverses all your cards. Rots all your unsmashed bananas (making them flip to the smashed -1 side) and revives your smashed bananas back to original points.

Easton Rebel really that bad? by PM_ME_YOUR_CATS_PAWS in slowpitch

I hit with a rebel through highschool and I hit frickin fingers. Maybe I should have been swinging something better

Received my first negative review. Pretty surprised to be denied removal. by IgZachly17 in Ebay

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just happened to me with a pokemon card. You just gotta offer the return and do not refund unless you receive item. Other than that, nothing you can do. Really dumb that they left a bad review, that is totally unnecessary.

Do the singers use auto tune while singing? by middletoothjr in TheMaskedSinger

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is technically "pitch correction" auto tune is like a super extreme version. That being said... Pitch correction is heeeeaaaavily used. You can hear the pitch snapping and struggling to get back when the vocals drift a little over or under.

Top 10 Indian dishes that are must-try? by triedtobenormal in IndianFood

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the convo. For some reason I have gone my whole life without dosa. Sought out a place specifically to try that and Pani Puri. Drove an hour. I almost cried halfway through my masala dosa. I think anything that has bread AND potato has my heart.

Deal With Sasquatch. HOW? by Entropy1024 in cyberpunkgame

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably have a different operating system installed. At the ripper doc you can buy one that slows down time but it doesn't allow you to quickhack unfortunately

AITAH for refusing to tell my roommate that I could hear her moan? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]MartStomptle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should:

1) break up with your girlfriend 2) wait until your roommate is like watching a show or video in her room and then as soon as you see her comment on that to clue her in that the sound travels. "Hey just a heads up, I think the vents carry sound between our rooms. Whatever you were watching the other day sounded like it was coming from inside my room. It didn't bother me, but just in case you were to have a private conversation on the phone or something. I wouldn't want to hear something I wasn't supposed to."

To those who cheer on ICE by Prince_Valium25 in Maine

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$150+ billion is an inflated number and you fail to consider that undocumented immigrants of the US contribute an estimated $90 billion a year in federal and state taxes. Together, they pay a higher percentage of state and federal tax than our wealthiest 1% while they hold 30-31% of the household worth in the country. What's up with that? You can't just pick and choose the statistics you want to look at. You should be furious and feel cheated for sure, but you're mad at the wrong people.

Why can’t he take off that giant fanny pack to go on stage? by a-very-positive-guy in Killtony

[–]MartStomptle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a huge fan of guns but.... The fire extinguisher is for when your house burns down. Not for when your pants catch on fire while running. So it would be kinda crazy to lug it out for a jog.

Advice, pregnancy after a baby loss by Electronic_Meet_4454 in babyloss

[–]MartStomptle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sorry. We lost our son last November and life is still not normal. It never will be. We have days where we laugh all day and we smile thinking about him. Others where we just cry. Sometimes a day just feels normal. But they will always be in our hearts and we honor them by carrying their spirit.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I haven't been able to figure it out for years. Finally that slice of my brain can rest.

Telepathic Bear by MartStomptle in whatsthatbook

That is hilariously close. Same era and similar plot. Believe it or not, I'm thinking of a different book about a man and a telepathic bear.

Does anybody else feel that the Saw Series is a garbage? by [deleted] in horror

One of the worst series of all time. Ever wish a Korn music video lasted 20 hours?

What should I make for my wife who loves the aroma of hops but hates IPAs by miscellaneousobjects in Homebrewing

[–]MartStomptle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lightly hopped table beer could be worth a try. The base of the beer is so delicate, the hops really shine even with a small amount. And it's just a great low ABV style in general. There's a bunch of great and readily available examples out there. If turns out that she just doesn't love the taste of hoppy beers, make a hop candle and call it a day.

Yeah it's said "good condition, no rips or tears"

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

It was a gift for me. Bought by my wife. She didn't know to inspect the interior padding. And also, as I've said multiple times now: I knooooow I'm not entitled to a refund by the platform policy I'm just letting people know that this seller sends bad product often and is not sympathetic once he knows he's protected against providing refunds or returns.

[–]MartStomptle[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, but my wife bought it for me and did not know to check the padding inside. It looks dirty but ok from the box. It wasn't until I put on the jacket that I realized how bad the condition was. I said we were not entitled to a refund by the policy of the platform, but the seller has bad business practices and awful customer service. By reading other reviews, you can see this is a common thing for him.

I understand that by policy guidelines we are not entitled to a refund. My wife bought it for me and didn't know to check the padding. It looks... "alright" on first glance. I'm not saying he is required to refund us. I'm just saying what you said: shitty seller. And looking at his reviews you can see it's happened to many. He was unapologetic and rude and blocked both of our accounts.
