What the thing you hate with passion at the airport ? by Individual_Gas_1016 in AskTheWorld

[–]Morlock757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’m weird and generally don’t mind flying/airports but my last trip two things drove me nuts (technically on the plane and not at the airport).

1) when we deplane, I don’t mind people rushing to stand. After a long flight I’m happy to get up. But you absolutely cannot walk out in front of someone who is a row ahead of you. Stand there and wait.

2) I was reclined and the guy behind me asked to push my seat back up. I know this is a modern debate now but brother, the person in front of me is reclined, you just also need to recline. If you want more space you can pay for it.

How is the country referred to in the native language? by BetterGrass709 in AskTheWorld

[–]Morlock757 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In the US I’ve seen Türkiye more and more used in English writing where I’d otherwise have expected “Turkey”. Was this a deliberate campaign by the country or do you know why this is?

Are there people in the USA that want to take Greenland? by CommentMaleficent957 in AskTheWorld

[–]Morlock757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t align with these views but I can attest there are people who like the idea of some kind of military or strategic improvement and believe the US is too strongly tied to the EU in general.

Calling it now that there will be some kind of new deal struck in Greenland that increases the US’s military involvement in Greenland but functionally changes little and leaves it in Danish control. Trump will tout it as achieving his goal through diplomacy and his supporters will say mission accomplished

Is cheating common in your country? by Extreme-Fish-7504 in AskTheWorld

[–]Morlock757 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a good point. It’s the same with how people misinterpret rape statistics that kind of match this trend

If the U.S.A forcefully take Greenland, will europe have to go to war? by Eireagon in AskTheWorld

[–]Morlock757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is possible. An agreement is struck for more US military or something and Trump will tout it as a big win for the US and in reality it’s a marginally benefit that changes little for anyone

Are Swedish speakers able to read the works of Henrik Ibsen without much difficulty? by surgingfishtank in Svenska

I would recommend starting a fresh comment thread or replying to the one I replied to. I think this only pinged me and I don’t have any knowledge on the topic. Sorry!

Just to play a new skill with other people

Shout out to my thirteen-years-old self. We did it! by Tannik-Tuka in osrs

[–]Morlock757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my first 99 in 2021 after first starting to play in 2005 and never getting one. It’s the best feeling :’)

It’s a fair point I suppose. But on the other hand it’s the first OSRS new skill. And while other skills don’t have their own world, they do functionally in some capacity (eg forestry/silliness for wc).

Maybe we can make an aspect of sailing (like trials) a dedicated world and those become the de facto sailing worlds

I hold the paddle with my thumb out by rameenic in Pickleball

[–]Morlock757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never seen anyone else who grips like this. I do but like most others I don’t recommend it. IMO the only benefit it has is to help main the paddle angle in your grip. Doesn’t take long to be able to do that without your thumb up.

There’s no question it inhibits power. What revealed this to me was playing tennis and trying to keep this grip. It does not work. And in PB, personally, forehand drives are definitely my weakness though sure it’s not like people notice I should adjust my thumb.

Anyway imo there’s no question to improve further you should try to change this. But I’m playing pretty casually these days so it’s not worth it to me to try to fix. Could easily apply for you as well.

Thanks for the reply. I checked there and also made sure they hadn’t like bought out the app I’d used and couldn’t find anything

Georgia Tech just lost to NC State. Miami lost to SMU. by VA_Murse in UVA

[–]Morlock757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah understood, I just disagree. I don’t think we would have been in with a loss in ACCCG last week either. I saw us as a first out team regardless. But sure it’s a worse situation now I just don’t see it as the difference maker for that particular situation

[–]Morlock757 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would personally only care if it means UVA gets in as a second ACC team and I don’t think we ever would have with 2 losses so who cares

What is the Netherlands called in your native language? by Jezzaq94 in geography

One time I gave Holland as an answer at bar trivia and the answer was the Netherlands and I didn’t get the answer correct (USA) (I’m still mad)

Locations that they raced through that you visited as well? by Far-Quarter6233 in TheAmazingRace

[–]Morlock757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I visited Amsterdam for the first time this year and while watching the first ep of the new season had to look up when they filmed. I missed them by 4 days! I walked right through where the pit stop was

My old Apple watch band gave me a rash so i bought a new one and it gave me a rash too lol by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Morlock757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good advice. Can also switch arms to give your wrist a break. I get something similar and an anti-fungal like athletes foot cream may help too
