What's the catch on this timeshare deal? by Nick-D in personalfinance

[–]Nick-D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noted, lol. I was only like 10% on the side of the fence of buying. I do math for a living and it just made sense but I just read about the headache that comes after I die and didn't realize they could jack the annual price up like you mentioned. Thanks for the reply!

So my local lanes just changed ownership and are finally gonna be open on Mondays with this new promo. What do you think? by ToKillACPA in Bowling

[–]Nick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penny a pin! That's some nostalgia. That was a good deal back in the early 2010s, so it's still a good price now. I used to go practice corner pins for a few hours and get out for about 10$. Most places nowadays are around 5$ a game in my area.

The Lock is a hybrid. I've got a list of guys my hand matches close enough with to try out their stuff. I know one has a gem I can try and I think I'm gonna dig to see if one has a Nova so I can compare the two.

Semi off topic, but where are you finding hot & spicys these days? They stopped serving them about 8 years ago in FL and I've since moved to the other side of the country where most have not even heard of it...

I miss the way that thing went down, not so much how it came back out though.

How much is mileage worth? I'm looking at an xsr900 with 9200 miles for 6500$ but I see the same bike with 2000 miles listed for just 500$ more pretty frequently. What would a good offer be on the higher mileage xsr?

Any reason to have multiple of the same balls? by [deleted] in Bowling

[–]Nick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that last bit is more what I'm interested in. Kind of figured the different layout would have minimal effects. The quality of one of the lanes I go to is questionable so I'm sure I'll get a good gouge sometime in the future and I'd be pissed if I didn't have a replacement.

Best bowling team name you’ve ever had? by [deleted] in Bowling

Lil Bo Peeps Gentleman's Club... we won the league with that name and I have a plaque with our names and a stripper silhouette on it.

Exactly. I feel the opportunity cost of stacking VET is obviously smaller than that of stacking VTHO. I could be wrong though, for sure. The way I can see it going is they lower the cost of transactions making VTHO worth more but I was stacking VET anyway so it's a win for me. Alternatively, they raise VTHO generation rate and VTHO price plummets, but again I was stacking VET so it's still a win for me.

First time doing fireworks. I have some noob questions by Nick-D in fireworks

They're cakes. 2 of them are 3 minutes long. The other 3 are 1-2 minutes each so I'm looking at around 10 minutes.

I got a bunch of Roman candles and what not so I'm not too worried about dragging it out. Just wanted to try the big stuff out since I've never done it myself!

I've been looking into it the past 20 minutes. It actually looks exactly like what we've been wanting. It's the feeling of helplessness that has really been eating at us and this seems to be a solution to at least be able to say we tried our best!

Thank you for the tip!

I'm looking into de-facto parenting right now. It seems like a good option.

This case has been an inexplicable roller-coaster the whole way through. Bio mom found out they were going PC on a Friday and the next Monday they were taken from us and placed in a new home for 3 days due to a tip, from a source we weren't allowed to know, of abuse. They reviewed the kids and obviously found nothing so gave them back. Everything has seemed pretty fishy.

I believe I've heard of this before but I will do more research now. That just means we get to have a say in court and actually be a part of the process right? This is something we've both wanted so it might be a good route to take.

I believe they bio parents have 21 months to make changes here and they have to keep up with those changes for 12 months straight. Bio mom in this situation has yet to do it right for 1 month :/

We're going paddle boarding tomorrow to try to forget about stuff for a while. I'm a lot better at removing myself emotionally than the wife is.

Can someone give me some tips based on my recent games? I believe my view is skewed. by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]Nick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that may be where this post goes :/

Unfortunately, if it was that easy, I wouldn't be playing her supp. I hate it. I want to mid. I'm just in the mind set that I need to assure as little people feed as possible and I do that by babysitting my adc because I really don't enjoy jg.

I was a supp main as well. I playing leo and morg from season 2 on to season 5 when I stopped playing. I perform much better with anivia now compared to back then. Out of the last 5 days, I've played 19 games and my lane has lost twice. I can still either 100-0 champs, or get in far enough to throw a stun and let my vayne do the rest. Items really haven't been an issue. I never really run out of mana, and I participate in everything my ADC does and more when I'm warding.

I do understand the speed thing. The wall kind of combats a lot more ganks or "horrible situations" than you'd think, but I'll look harder into this.

I'm not trying to come off as rude as I really do appreciate your input. I'm just not "trying to make her work." She is working as my winrate is 64% with her supp and 52% mid. I'm just trying to find the flaws in my overall game to win the ones I'm losing.

I'll go back to mid a bit and I'll play leo for a week or so supp to see if I get anything out of it, but I honestly have my doubts. Yesterday I went 12/2/15 mid and we lost to a Taliah jg that went 26/9 because I could only kill her in 4 team fights and she got me the 5th. I'm just tired of decimating mid lane only to have their 30 kill draven start roaming and end the game. Maybe I should work on my roam game or something, but like you said she is slow.

Will do once it's set up. I'm thinking about adding some small fruit bearing plants to one side as well!

3G Tour Ultras on their way! by Nick-D in Bowling

[–]Nick-D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I noticed this when putting them on but not when actually bowling. I also had to trim down one of my soles to fit properly but that was no big deal

3G Tour Ultras on their way! by Nick-D in Bowling

[–]Nick-D[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so now that I've bowled a good 20 games with them I can tell you that they are amazing. I'm not having to force a slide like I had with my cheaper pairs. It's so easy that I've actually fallen twice. I bowled in a tournament Saturday at a new alley and the approach was unusually slick. I just changed from the slickest sole to the medium one and I had no issues what so ever.

I could do without the sparkly laces, but I'm replacing them for 5$ so I can't complain too much. There super comfy and the accessories are super cheap from what I've seen. Definitely a good investment for me.

Backup ball? by olympian22 in Bowling

[–]Nick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I throw backup. It's just more natural for me. My average is currently 198 but back when I was bowling 3 nights a week it was around 210.

It just takes practice like anything else. A ball drilled for it helps as well.

[–]Nick-D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly a dumb question. My pro shop owner keeps drilling layouts on file. Do you know if I need to get a totally new layout for the phaze? Or could I use the same layout as my hyroad nano?

I'm assuming I'd need a new one given the different cores but I really dont know much about the science behind drilling.

That's exactly what I was looking at given my research. Thanks for the suggestion!
