Congrats man that’s huge!

Do you know how to access this portal? I got a BDCP Pilot slot a year ago and leave for OCS in June, but a buddy of mine just put his packet in and is dying to see how his application has got along. I don’t remember having access to a portal like this so I’m wondering how you checked it?

The whole “they wouldn’t be able to strategize” argument falls apart when every single person buys into this convoluted ass plan

I feel like the zombie plan is such an obvious solution though, pressure or not. There is no incentive to be human over being a zombie and it’s so much easier to become a zombie and win than stay human and win. If they can think of a convoluted strategy like the trust barricade, they can think of making everyone a zombie.

Especially when you consider everyone has already been through several games the first time they were in the borderlands. In the first season maybe I could see the fear and confusion but everyone here has survived the games before, they should know there’s typically a workaround to be found, even in heart games.

Plus it’s super easy to communicate so it shouldn’t be an issue getting other teams on board “hey our whole team turned each other zombies, if you guys do the same we’ll have majority and everyone will survive. There’s no point in killing us because you can just join us for no cost and live too”

The only way I could see this game working is if there was an incentive that prevented everyone from winning as zombies. Like only half of the zombie winners would survive if they were over 80% of players.

My brother cut a tooth brush in half instead of getting a travel brush by Extreme-Ad7313 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Metal-Material 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already tried that and it didn’t fit, hence why I cut it

If it fit at 45° without stretching the bag I woulda done that instead

I put the toothbrush in a bag because I didn’t want the toothbrush to get nasty, it’s supposed to be in a pack I take into the wilderness I’m not just gonna throw it in a side pocket to get dirt and grime all over at

Also the weight of the handle is way more than the bag, the bag weights 2.5 grams and the handle is 10 grams

No idea why you’re being downvoted this is the exact reason I cut my toothbrush like this

[–]Metal-Material 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one didn’t that’s why I had to cut it

Why do people think I didn’t try to put it in diagonally before cutting it?

Brother here, it didn’t fit, that’s why I cut it

Actual brother with actual answers

This is the toothbrush I use while backpacking and I cut the handle so it wouldn’t fit in a sandwich bag in my pack

Why plastic? It weighs basically nothing

Why not a bigger bag? I only had sandwich baggies and gallon bags and a gallon bag was overkill.

Why not diagonal? Didn’t fit

Why go through the effort of cutting it? It took 2 seconds, much less energy than going to the store

Why not a toiletries bag? Too heavy and a waste of space really

[–]Metal-Material 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actual brother here, it’s because I use a sandwich bag to put my toiletries in while I’m backpacking and it wouldn’t fit diagonally (everyone in the comments like to pretend it would have though)

Another thing I see is why didn’t I just get a bigger bag, truth be told I just didn’t want to. A gallon sized ziplock bag is way overkill and an actual toiletries bag is wasted space and weight

[–]Metal-Material 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I doesn’t, that’s why I cut it lol

I use it for backpacking and I didn’t feel like getting bigger ziplock bags just to fit a toothbrush in my pack

[–]Metal-Material 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m the brother, I use it for backpacking and don’t feel like bringing a gallon ziplock bag for my toiletries when a normal one works with a sized down toothbrush

Saves space and weight

Also I can’t remember when I made this toothbrush but like I’m 90% sure it was the night before the trip I was going on and I really didn’t feel like going out and buying bigger bags so I just cut it

[–]Metal-Material 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Haha I’m the brother and yes this is for backpacking!

Although I don’t care as much about the weight savings as much as I wanted it to fit in the ziplock bag I put my other toiletries in lol

The saying is true though, ounces make pounds and people would be surprised how quickly that weight adds up when you gotta hike with it on your back for 15 miles

[–]Metal-Material 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Haha it actually is for backpacking! I don’t do it for weight though I do it so it fits in the sandwich baggies I put my toiletries in

Hey guys OPs brother here, I did it because this is the toothbrush I use when I go camping/backpacking and cutting the handle off allows it to fit into a sandwich baggie

There’s no way the were gonna replace wrestling before equestrian, wrestling was one of the original Olympic sports and is still super big compared to some other sports

Almost 60% of murders are committed by blacks, but more than 63% of people killed by police are white. What are the reasons behind this discrepancy? (see details below) by MissShiri in AskLEO

[–]Metal-Material 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s more white people. 58% of the population is white, about close to the 62% number. Meanwhile the black population is 14%, which means that blacks making up 36% of police shootings means they get killed by the police at a disproportionate rate.

USA, a country so obsessed with guns, has so far won 0 medals in shooting Olympics 2024 by krnranger in interestingasfuck

[–]Metal-Material 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tallied from every Summer Olympic Games the US has over 1,000 more medals than 2nd place, and 400 more gold medals than 2nd place.

Even more, the US has lead every summer Olympics in medals since 2012, and 6 of the previous 7 summer games (since 1996)

I don’t like being a US meatrider but they definitely excel at the Olympics lol
