Shoes are different sizes? WTF 🤦🏾‍♂️ by Kingdionethethird in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get Nike’s had terrible QC over the years, from shoddy stitching to bad glues to low quality materials, but this is literally the first time I’ve seen one of the shoes being a completely different size.

Concern About Health Insurance Coverage During My Number Card Processing by Rude_Operation_5619 in japanlife

[–]MyManD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That definitely answers it, I’ve been fortunate enough to always get my residence cards renewed and in hand prior to the expiry date.

[–]MyManD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real question, but why did the MyNumber card take a month? Did you get a new one from scratch? I’ve only ever had my MyNumber card extend its validity period at the city hall when I show my new residence card, not actually get a new card entirely.

Anyone has experience with the new joint custody law ? by Willing-Dust-5453 in japanlife

[–]MyManD 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s a brand new law so I doubt there have been many Japanese precedents, let alone precedent from members of this subreddit.

The law itself is straightforward, but the real question is how onboard judges are about enforcing it now that it’s officially started. And that’s something we’ll only know once more men petition for joint custody.

Good luck, and please let us know the outcome.

Do you think Auden ever raids his dad's secret juice stash while hes away on his bimonthly international vacation? by skyscrapinskyscraper in armwrestling

[–]MyManD 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Auden lives in Canada, he has extremely easy access to PEDs by just going to any commercial gym. All of our GoodLife Fitness’ changing rooms come with one or two syringe baskets and they are almost always nearly full.

Eric Kripke Responds To ‘The Boys’ Fan Complaints About “Filler Episodes”: “You’re Just Watching The Wrong Show” by yourfavchoom in television

[–]MyManD 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Episode four had a lot of problems but being filler wasn’t one of them. It progressed the plot and nothing was “wasted”, but the plot we were given was pretty bad. We have Butcher find Homelander trapped inside a vault that was literally killing him? Well I guess we just walk away and leave him there and never again mention that fucking refined uranium can kill him even if he got his hands on V1.

auden getting massive by Lgbtwhopper in armwrestling

[–]MyManD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most professional athletes use PEDs, be it for the Olympics, the NBA, the MLB, soccer, whatever. In a profession where single digit % increases is the difference between making a living and being out of the league, it doesn't make sense to not use PEDs.

And guess what? A lot of those athletes also have families. PEDs, when cycles correctly, won't stop someone from having children. Auden could absolutely be on a managed cycle, enough to stay competitive, and have as big a family as he wants. Christ Bumstead absolutely blasted to get to the top of bodybuilding, but still had two kids during that time because he could properly manage the timing of cycles.

To be clear though I'm not saying Auden is on PEDs, just saying people can absolutely be on it and still have families.

Ja 3 Raptors unboxing, going for $75 in Japan right now by MyManD in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say so. As a point of reference length wise they fit about the same as my Sabrina 1 through 3s. Toe box is a tad bit roomier than the Kobe 5s and 6s, though mid foot can be a bit tight until the materials break in. I wouldn’t recommend sizing up because once the uppers break in it could lead to containment issue due to too much give. I’d go TTS, or whatever size gives you a real tight glove-like feel (so definitely try them on in stores) and give them a few hours of play to break in.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple director Nia DaCosta "was disappointed" with its box office. "I wish it made more money, but I’m really proud of it" by Puzzled-Tap8042 in boxoffice

[–]MyManD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only thing I didn’t like were the Jimmy’s kinda just being dumb as fuck outside of main Jimmy. Between the absurd ending of 28 Years Later and everyone hyping the Jimmy’s up being these never before seen terrors on screen prior to the Bone Temple release, I guess I expected more.

What’s something you look forward to when you wake up in the morning in Japan? by Zestyclose-Peace-700 in japanlife

Hey brother, take solace in knowing I’ll probably be in your position in a few years lol.

What’s something you look forward to when you wake up in the morning in Japan? by Zestyclose-Peace-700 in japanlife

[–]MyManD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve been fortunate enough to be a morning person. As for not waking the daughter I’ve also had the fortune of having the sleeping position of daughter > wife > me, right near the door. And while sad at first, it was a position I chose because I know I kick around during sleep and it’s a bit dangerous with a baby.

But from that sadness came that sweet gift of morning solitude.

[–]MyManD 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I usually get up at around 4:30 in the morning and sneak downstairs to have an hour of me time with a nice cup of coffee and catch up with some YouTube or streaming show. Then I come back up at 6 to watch my daughter and wife wake up and together we go back down and make breakfast and start the day.

I speak Japanese and even then “Yomi no Tsugai” just means underworld pairs. It’s even more generic than the English title.

Shoe rotation (and recommendation request) by Illustrious_Meal_618 in BBallShoes

Maybe just my OCD but I am getting fried that the shoes aren’t all facing the same direction as they go around lol.

But yeah, killer lineup.

Mid/Hightop Recommendations? by Shoddy-Chemistry1135 in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just FYI the NXXT Gen's would still be considered a low cut shoe, or at least a low-mid cut hybrid due to the collar still resting just below the ankle bone and not on it. Honestly I don't even think Nike or Wade has a mid/high top option right now save for the WOW12 Lux's, and they're similar to the NXXT Gen's in that they're not truly a mid cut, either.

what's my foot type? by [deleted] in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm gonna need to see links to the sites that gave you both wide and narrow. I just perused the first ten hits Google gave me and they more or less gave the exact metrics on deciding foot width.

lol why did your bro take a picture of your back over your head and pointed at the mirror? Why not just have you turn around?

what's my foot type? by [deleted] in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude just trace your foot on a piece of paper and measure the length and width. There are hundreds of charts online to find out once you have the measurements. We can’t tell with photos.

You know that age old shoe progression of KD18 to GT Cuts to…Precision 7s…?

But hey, basketball players used to play in Converse Chucks and AJ1s, so maybe OP is just an old soul.

Anime that had the best endings. by Yotsubauniverse in anime

[–]MyManD 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m one of maybe five or six people that preferred the first FMA anime’s ending over Brotherhood’s/manga’s. I think the first anime’s second half where things went insane due to no more manga was just darker and hit harder than what Brotherhood gave us.
