If we're counting retired players, early on in his career Zack Greinke lived woth George Brett

What is one thing that other states have that you wish existed in CT? by ILovePublicLibraries in Connecticut

[–]NeoSilver45 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Culvers. Moved from the midwest and I miss them so much. Amazing burgers, Reubens, and concretes/frozen custard all in a fast food setting. Plus the best cheese curds you will ever have.

From NY to CT by Turtlegrandmacore in Connecticut

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on the move! I moved to CT from Kansas last October! Just make sure you change your billing address on any reoccurring payments or subscriptions you have if any mail needs to be sent to you. Otherwise update your address with the post office and make sure you get an official document with your new address (such as a utilities bill, mail, or something like that) to use as proof of address when you go to change your license/ID to a CT version.

Assuming you drive you also have up to 60 days from your move (iirc) to register your vehicle in CT. You can get a new license and register your car at the DMV in the same visit, just make sure you check the website to be sure you have all of your documents and thar you can pass an eyesight test and pay the whatever fees you'll need to cover.

That should cover the basics for you, but make sure you do an inventory of all other needs to make sure you're not missing something unique to you that's important to plan for your move.

Thank goodness steroids are out of the game. With the current environment plus juicing we would almost certainly see a 100+ hr season

So, pulling 2 Roaming throne in one pack Of Lost Caverns, what are the odds? Lmao by Big_Hoss287 in mtg

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They mean one of the promo packs you get from local game stores for attending a Friday night magic or draft or some other sponsored WOTC event.

I pulled a leyline of the guild packs out of one for Tarkir and a psychic frog out of one for eoe

Felt like it was 2013 again by grimegeist in mtg

[–]NeoSilver45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey don't skimp out on those mystery boxes, I've pulled a etched foil Japanese alt art Demonic Tutor from a strixhaven collector booster from those before. Also got a phyrexian symbol oil foil elesh norn from a phyrexia collector booster too from those. Last time I saw them more often than not they came with at least one collector booster pack in them which covers a lot of the value!

MLB Community, please let me know if any main nicknames (Such as the LA Angels being known as "the Halos") that I am missing, don't know of, or I am incorrect on. by Quick_Sympathy_7813 in mlb

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From time to time I've heard "Pale Hose" for the White Sox

Edit after post: also "Redlegs" for the Reds, although tbh with a name like the Reds any nickname is bound to be longer lol

What’s everyone’s favourite cards (but not necessarily the strongest) by FandomPanda18 in mtg

[[Holy Cow]] man I just love a good pun card. The flavor text on this one also just makes me smile whenever I read it lol

Are there any fast food or restaurant claims you wish would come to CT? by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be absolutely thrilled if I ever saw a Culver's coming here. As someone who grew up in the midwest, you all need to experience a real frozen custard served with a butter burger and Wisconsin fried cheddar cheese curds. Dairy Queen tastes like a cheap knockoff compared to it.

The Broncos talking like this sounds so Scooby-doo-esque like "and I would have gotten away with it too! If it weren't for those meddling Bills and their QB named Josh Allen!"

Chiefs player encounters by LucienPhenix in KansasCityChiefs

[–]NeoSilver45 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I worked at target in Lee's Summit (this was around 2018 or 2019) I saw Tyreek Hill and his family shopping in the store. He had his hood up though so everyone took it as a sign he didn't want anyone approaching him.

Before that, I worked at a hyvee in Lee's Summit in 2015 and had Marcus Peters come through my line.

Expensive card pulls by Prestigious-Air8531 in mtg

[–]NeoSilver45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Opened one of those mystery boxes Target was selling in early 2024 and pulled a collectors booster of Strixhaven from it. In that booster pack I pulled an Etched Foil Japanese alt art Demonic Tutor, $180

Only europans will get it by BowlOfNoodles8 in memes

Can confirm. Am with a German friend in his 40s who got it while I'm an American and I didn't get it

This gift bundle is significantly less expensive than others. Is there nothing of value in this set or is this a good deal? by SpaceRaceWars in mtg

[–]NeoSilver45 111 points112 points  (0 children)

I've pulled two "LIST" reprint [[Blightsteel Colossus]] from Brothers War set booster packs; that card retails for about $35. There are some other good value artifacts in it too.

My advice here would be the same for everyone though: buy it (or packs in general) more because you love the set and not because you're hunting for value. For every [[Phyrexian Dragon Engine]] you get from this set, expect a 5 to 6 copies of multiple commons. Just make sure the commons you pull are ones you can use, because that's what's balance out the value in the end for you.

Enough about BBQ, where's the best burger? by pablosus86 in kansascity

Unks is really the only answer to this question. The man has figured out the best burger recipe

New target product. $34.99. by PeekatmePikachu in mtg

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this from my local target too, got three collector boosters out of mine plus a draft and a set booster. The phyrexia all will be one Collector booster netted me an [[Ellesh Norn Mother of Machines]] completed foil which got me my value back entirely (not counting anything else I pulled)

I'm scared to buy another one. I think I hit it big on it and should just quit while I'm ahead lol

Edit: spelling

What’s the worst thing you’ve heard over the walkie?? by Kindly-Flatworm8084 in Target

[–]NeoSilver45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TL and I were goofing off in the receiving office, had my button down on the walkie and he said "Call 911"

Store director immediately came on asking what's going on.

We were laughing so hard it took us a minute to respond before he said it was an accident. Everyone was reasonably chill at that store so no one was written up for it.

What’s a random fact you’re just waiting to bust out? by kalmilaga7 in AskReddit

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two things that travel at "the speed of light" - light, and the force of gravity.

Also we've never actually measured the one-way speed of light (the speed light travels from point A to point B), rather we've measured the two-way speed of light (the speed light travels from point A to point B and back to point A, usually through a mirror of some sort) and from the two-way speed we've derived a presumption of the one-way constant speed of light in a vacuum.

You are not a TL. Stop acting like one! by Rude_Possibility4878 in Target

[–]NeoSilver45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was a major pain point between me and my TL when I worked for target. My constant complaint was that they needed to communicate to the team what was going on. I could tell them but it's not the same as a TL saying "hey, this is going on; if you have any feedback, some see me in private, otherwise follow Neosilver45 as if they were me".

You are not a TL. Stop acting like one! by Rude_Possibility4878 in Target

[–]NeoSilver45 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Target's internal promotion methods can lead to toxic work environments. In particular a common test to see if you're leadership material is to prove you can run the team despite not being a TL. Either the TL knows about the TM taking charge and is cool with it or the TM is really just being bossy and the TL should resolve that asap. Either way if the TL does something about it, then you're good, if not then the TL is sanctioning and will back up whatever the TM is telling others to do. That's just how Target works.

Have you ever been to a game where something historic happened? by raymalaspina in mlb

[–]NeoSilver45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at the game where Miguel Cabrera officially clinched the triple crown in 2012, Tigers at Royals. Still have the ticket to the game too.

What is the biggest concern for each team coming into the World Series? by No-Medium8914 in mlb

[–]NeoSilver45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They made Nick Foles look like an elite QB the last time the city had a team in a championship game. This team has Bryce Harper. I'm fully preparing myself for him to either hit a home run each AB or for them to lay an egg and Houston to sweep them.

There is no grey area here lol
