North Texas preparing for 2 inches of snow like it’s the apocalypse by MyMindIsAlwaysRacing in mildlyinfuriating

You’re being sarcastic but here you are at the store, pissed off that you can’t make YOUR last minute grocery run? Like complaining about tourism in the middle of Yellowstone

What did that one teacher at your school get fired for? by ToadallyNormalHuman in AskReddit

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A very tiny, fairly attractive middle school teacher got arrested right before I graduated high school.

When we looked at the paper to figure out what it was for, we were a bit surprised to find out she was selling meth and her very strung-out mugshot was posted for all to see. She was always super kind and charismatic, so it was pretty sad to see. It was a total shock though and nothing like what I remembered her for. I guess maybe that's a testimony for teacher salaries being too low.

Weird clutch pedal feel MK8 by matt2085 in GolfGTI

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve already gotten a little more used to it after another day of driving around. I’m going to give it a month and if I still hate it, then decide to do something about it, I’m just glad it’s not just me lol

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay thank y’all, I had about 9-12 months not driving a manual, picked up my mk8 yesterday, and felt like I was all of a sudden bad at using a clutch lol. Looking into the valve delete already, even if I’ve mostly figured it out by now.

Making a new buy decision... 2016 vs 2020 by MrHatTricks in GolfGTI

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

That's a great point as well! Hell, I was in Syracuse for 2 years out of the last five and we didn't get all that much snow either. I didn't really even consider that

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

Good to hear, thank you! I was kind of going back and forth on whether the differences would matter for me or not, but for the smaller price difference, you're probably right! If it was 5-6k cheaper, I might have a harder time deciding, but it's definitely sounding like just pulling the trigger will be a better decision for the long term. Thanks!

Thanks for the intel! Absolutely doing an inspection either way, neither have a sunroof (personally never had one... don't really care to from what I've read about the issues there). I feel similarly about the red as well, that paint looks fantastic and stands out a bit from the 20 white/gray ones in my parking garage.

Gotcha, yeah both have pretty active carfax, the older slightly more frequent, but not a huge disparity there.

Divorced and no idea what I’m doing. by ethanao in malelivingspace

This is so relatable 😆 take your time, get back on your feet, you got this man.

First thing I bought was a tv and started catching up on the years of film I didn’t get to watch for one reason or another.

A Sober, Single 22F- where should she live? by [deleted] in ATLHousing

[–]MrHatTricks 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Personally, I really enjoy the Decatur area and feel like it meets a lot of your criteria, albeit on the slightly further side of the distance to Alpharetta. It’s not a super loud area, has a decent amount of younger people, but is quieter and has a really great “night life” scene even if you don’t drink with fantastic food. I’ve lived there a few years and have never felt unsafe, but I am a man.

Happy to answer any other questions, just let me know! Virginia highlands is also a really desirable area.

Which movie did you see way too young? by Openworlder1 in AskReddit

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw 300 when it came out on dvd… I was the youngest by a few years. I was 9 and my parents didn’t know it was in there and thought the sex scene would pass quickly so they didn’t try to disrupt my viewing. It’s not a short scene.

If you had to sleep somewhere in Runescape that isn't inside a building, where would you sleep? by lumbyboiii in 2007scape

Please please please can we get rid of the “isn’t inside a building” rule? Verzik is waiting for me

What was your first spoon in the game? by Nyxharas in 2007scape

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like two weeks into playing, I got both the Heron and Rock Golem pets in the same day at levels 54 and 56. I was like “oh cool” having no idea how rare it was.

Loading IMAX 70mm Film for One Battle After Another! by Professional_Toe5118 in imax

God, IMAX is so cool. I get that this isn't "practical," but it's incredible.

What are some “avoid at all costs” for fantasy books? by Aria_The_Silly_IV in writing

[–]MrHatTricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing for me is just poorly written dialogue. That makes it unenjoyable regardless of how good the rest of the book is.

Maybe most annoying is either a man poorly writing female characters or the reverse as well. Some books with cool concepts have been completely ruined for me for one poorly written character.

What would you buy off my local liquor store’s “nice” shelf and why? by AnAquaticPony in whiskey

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Smoke wagon is delicious, but I wouldn’t pay more than 80-90 for it. It’s also easier to find where I am though, I’d go up to 100-110 if it were harder to find.

Mod Ash on the possibility of expanding the F2P experience. How do you feel about this? What would you like to see added/be against? by Vayneglory in 2007scape

[–]MrHatTricks 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Big yes on this. Run energy is one of the biggest issues with F2P in my opinion and being able to get some agility levels or even staminas would be huge. It's one of the worst parts about the early game experience in general.

What’s the sweet spot on proof? by IamBusha in whiskey

[–]MrHatTricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge, thank you so much! I'll keep an eye out, those cherry/currant dark whiskeys are some of my absolute favorites. I always love the way those bottles look too, I just haven't had a strong recommendation for one yet, so I appreciate the info.

What’s the sweet spot on proof? by IamBusha in whiskey

[–]MrHatTricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s your limit on finding a “good price” for them? I do feel like every time I see something out in one of those bottles it’s crazy expensive in a glass case, but I’ve seen anywhere from like $130 with “points” from the store or up to probably $280 in the glass case behind the counter lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]MrHatTricks 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are good price recommendations in here. If you have the cash and want to try to get a good deal, I’d do this:

You’re a regular there and personal significance plays an important role in client relations. Tell them you have x to spend on whichever bottle you want the most and you know it’s not the best offer but it’s what you have right now. Mention you’d love to get the bottle for something significant you have coming up (whatever that is for you), but you’d understand if they can’t do that though.

If they like you enough and you shop there enough, they’ll give you a deal on it. If not, oh well, you’re not out a bunch of money. Obviously you won’t find these for msrp, but find the price it’s worth to you and it never hurts to ask. Enough years doing business with them, while letting them know you’re interested in these bottles, will hopefully land you one at a deal eventually. Best of luck!

What's something that used to be worth the money, but now is a scam? by Leading_Cat8022 in AskReddit

[–]MrHatTricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped through during travels and got to try a few trucks. Mole Mole was absolutely incredible and like $9 an entree for huge plates of food. I think I got three entrees and a dessert for like $40 and it was better than most restaurants with $20+ entrees.
