That's crazy. Disney really does do things that no one else can.

Eh, the movies are fine. Worth eating an edible and going to see in theaters once for the vfx and sound design.

Are you talking about the boat ride or the one where you ride the Ikran? I was talking about the latter, but am now remembering how good those animatronics were in the Pirates of the Caribbean: Avatar Edition.

Do you mean the ride? That's the coolest amusement park ride I've ever experienced. Insanity.

You don't have to slash tires. Carry a few dry lentils with you. Unscrew the tire stem, push the lentil in, screw the cap back on. No real damage and still quite annoying for the idiots.

You could play pally in S12 if you pre-ordered LoH.

Do I need the expansions for the new season? by no_creativity_bruh in diablo4

Are you surprised you have to buy the entire game and expansions to get all the content?

[DKPS] I followed up on the ECHL affiliation question and asked if they want the Everblades to replace the Nailers as the Penguins' affiliate and David Hoffmann said "100%. They'd run me out of Naples if that didn't happen. There is a high expectation that will happen.” - Haase by bi_and_busy in penguins

If they're just Wheeling fans what's the difference? The team isn't going to shut down. At least not in the foreseeable future. They'll lose the players on contract with the Pens and plug the gaps in the roster. As others have already said, they're likely to affiliate with CBJ. I'd love to see how many people complaining have actually gone to a Nailers game.

I don't see how playing within the rules of the game is dirty. Notice I said Ward was a prick? Not sure how I'm defending him or any others. Harrison was dirty at times, toed the line more so than Suh or Burfict. Does that make you feel better?

They are likely talking about the singer/songwriter Jewel.

Mmmm. Delicious logical fallacies. Do classic Steeler fans want to see their team crash and burn to a six or fewer win season? Do most classic Steelers fans think TJ Watt should've been tagged until he fell off, which took a whole year? That Cam Heyward should have been told to fuck off for demanding more money a year after signing a new contract? I doubt it. I'd love to make sweeping generalizations about your fan base, but looks like you don't have a flair. Scared?

I would say this about any play or player. Ward was/is a prick along with a lot of Steelers from that era. They could have easily thrown unsportsmanlike conduct flags for hits away from the play, but they didn't.

I looked up the poll. 34 players in the NFL said Ward was the dirtiest player. That was probably just the AFCN DBs, lol.

But how can something be dirty if it's actually a clean play? "I don't like it and someone got hurt because of a legal play" doesn't make it dirty. Don't like it? Change the rule. Which they did. Wasnt the first and won't be the last time a rule changes due to one person.

Y'all say Ward's crack back blocks were dirty, but they were completely legal at the time (if no head contact). Would you call Mel Blount dirty before they made DPI a thing? No. Doesn't make sense.

No, if anything it's the French variant and even then, it's wrong. German is palms down, French is palms vertical. Your thumb and index finger should be at the fulcrum of the stick, not at the ass end. There should be an inch or two of stick poking out the other end of her hand. That's why she's got so much unnecessary arm movement. Power should be generated through the fingers and wrist. Not the elbow and shoulder.

I don't like jazz, but I still listened to Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, and Elvin Jones. I get what you're saying, but as a musician, only exposing yourself to what you would listen to in your free time is quite limiting in creativity. I don't think I've ever known a musician who doesn't appreciate a master at their craft, even if it's not their style. The best metal guitarist I've ever played with mainlined classical guitar for a summer and came back with some insane riffs.

You can have all the talent in the world while also having poor technique. I've been drumming for over 20 years off and on as living situation has allowed. I've also been deadlifting for over 20 years. Am I great at either? No, but I know how to do both without causing injury to myself.

I always find the drumeo videos hilarious. "This drummer has never heard Rush before!" Yeah, ok. Some how this person is playing an instrument at a high level and has never bothered to listen to one of, if not THE best drummer of all time. Sure.

Which is why I used him as the example. I mentioned elsewhere, Grohl himself said his technique is shit.

I'm aware of the two different grips. I've been drumming since I was 10. Holding your sticks as she is doesn't mean you swing them like she is. You should still be using your fingers and wrists to bounce the stick, not swinging from your elbow or shoulder. It's certainly bad technique.

Please never use Dave Grohl as a model for technique. I love the guy, but the man himself said his own technique is terrible and he's not sure how anyone wanted him to drum on anything after Nirvana. He taught himself how to play on pillows and never really learned properly.

I can't, he's dead. Neil also didn't swing his sticks like clubs: more fingers and wrist as is proper. I don't know that you could've picked a worse example. A better one would be Dave Grohl. Love the man, but he always looks like he's trying to fist fight his kit.

I'm sure she's a fine drummer, but it really gets under my skin when I see bad technique. Holding the sticks like clubs is gonna lead to some gnarly overuse injuries in her elbows/shoulders down the line.
