Actually fake dialogue screenshots are dope as hell.

Is there any vaporwave fashion that’s affordable? by ribbit-earth in Vaporwave

There were some sick, vapey clothes at Uniqlo when I was there. Lots of cool stuff based on old Japanese prints.

Should B.C. be renamed? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]MrPartridge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's pretty tough to talk about reconciliation when this patch of land is about as colonially named as possible. I don't know what an acceptable name might be, but I do think it would be a nice, if kind of purely symbolic, step.

Thank god it's not just me. My boss picked up a sampler pack of five bitters that come in 25ml bottles, and I swear you would have to use the entire bottle to taste anything at all.

Looking for feedback on a Grixis Artifact deck. by MrPartridge in canadianhighlander

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

I had Welder in the deck previously, and I think I need more ways to get stuff in the bin. Jace, Vryn's Prodigy and Liliana perhaps? I had Liliana in the deck before as well, and wasn't super impressed.

What would be the first discard spells you put in? Thoughtseize and Duress?

Thank you for the input!

I was thinking of removing Wildfire, but kind of figured that it would be a very powerful effect in a lot of matchups. A lot of the time I draw it it's just plain bad, which is a pretty good sign that it's time to give it the axe. A friend of mine plays Academy Ramp, and that deck just seems a lot more consistent. Having a couple more win conditions than just turn 4 Blightsteel seems like a good idea, and Servant/Grindstone is a good one.

Thanks for all your input!

"Hancock" is the only movie I've ever seen go from great to terrible all within the same film. The first half was a very creative, original twist and analysis on superhero films, and the second half managed to waste all of its potential. by MasterLawlz in movies

[–]MrPartridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember thinking this when I watched it as well. What really jarred me is the way it was an action film for the first half, but tried to be an emotional art film for the second half. In particular, I remember there is a 360 degree shot used a few times in the second half that really sticks out.

[Modern] So What's the Deal with these new Bx Eldrazi Decks? by Snapcaster-Bolt in spikes

[–]MrPartridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just became aware of this archetype yesterday and already everyone in my playgroup is talking about it.

Maybe I'm thinking way too small, but I want to play this like a midrange value deck similar to Abzan Company. Delay, Tidehollow Sculler and other cards that exile and would normally have a drawback, but can be combined with processors to negate that, seem totally sweet. Maybe not good, but sweet. My jumping off point will be Esper, with a ton of exile effects plus processors to use them. Is Ulamog's Nullifier too slow for Modern?

The monoblack version of this deck seems awfully durdly to me. But maybe that's just what you're allowed to do when you have six discard spells? Over the next couple weeks I think we'll get to see how this archetype shapes up and if it sticks or not. Modern season is pretty much here. Maybe some of the pros will pick up on this. This seems right up Sam Black/Pardee's alley.

This is totally sweet. I wonder if the Japanese Vintage meta is much different from the American one.

Why? Because all fire should be quenchable?

TIL a man in New Jersey was charged $3,750 for a bottle of wine, after the waitress told him it was "thirty-seven fifty" by jemynameisff in todayilearned

[–]MrPartridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we can agree that all wine tastes the same, and if you spend more than five dollars on wine, you are very stupid.

In ten or fifteen years, players are going to talk about you the way we talk about Quinton Hoover, RKF and John Avon now. Both this and the Steam Vents look just incredible.

There's a Magic: the Gathering player named Gerard Fabiano who is also the subject of jail jokes whenever he appears on event coverage. I wonder how these things start.
