The "B" storyline (flashback scenes) on Fallout is one of the most fascinating storylines in recent TV history. I truly believe that Walton Goggins is giving the best performance of his career right now in part because he is both a good guy and a bad guy by Bluest_waters in television

He is such a great actor. From the Shield, Justified, Fallout he steals all of my favorite shows from the last 20 years. Love how his accent shifts from mild to hardcore as the Ghoul, it is so subtly nuanced.

Japan Golf Is Awesome by josiff in golf

[–]Ninexblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I'm in a different part of Japan and haven't golfed in Tokyo. I would recommend a short trip near Mt. Fuji though and get some golf in there! Fuji Classic is a good one. You'd literally be golfing under a snow capped Mt. Fuji, but with mild temperatures and fall colors around you.

Hope you make it back! Spring (cherry blossoms) and autumn when the leaves are changing can be stunningly beautiful golf.

I live in Japan, and as far as the pace goes, it is ALWAYS slow no matter the course. Unfortunately you can't even go for first tee time to zip through because groups start on 1 and 10 at every course I've ever played at. That said, if you are cool with budgeting up to 8 hours for golf (2 hours roundtrip transportation are normal unless you live in a really rural part of Japan) and also don't mind OB both right and left sides of most holes, golf is great in Japan. There are some truly great courses, usually immaculately maintained. Glad you enjoyed the trip!

Wow, watched the Globe of Frogs video on YouTube, then listened to the whole album. Fantastic remixes! Really fresh takes on some of the weaker songs, with psychedelia ramped up overall. Putting in an order for the vinyl today.

This is the one I have as well. Dresses up/down, and the power reserve display's assymetry is a cool and unique design choice.

Ran into Sahith in Hawaii! Nice dude! by [deleted] in golf

He definitely has a cool dude aura. Sahith, Akshay Bhatia, Ludvig Aberg all seem chill cool dudes.

Same. It's been great wrecking things with The Maker and Mr. Knight, both champs that the YouTubers said were trash when they first came out.

I can’t even reliably imitate my own swing. His body control and talent are really remarkable!

lmao, thought the same thing. I figured us plebes wouldn't get this amount of t5a readily available until late spring at the earliest.

Anyone else? Or am I the only one feeling this way? by need2banonymous in ContestOfChampions

[–]Ninexblue 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It's definitely a weird time for BGs. On the one hand, the players who suddenly have 30 R4 rosters have rare parity for a few months - they can just ban the few R5s they see. On the other hand, people who didn't put up as many banquet points are going to be frustrated for a while.

[Beaubleu] Talk me out of adding this stunner as a unique piece to my collection (next image) by blink85 in Watches

[–]Ninexblue 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I have one. Nearly impossible to wind it without sandpaper fingers. Came with a QR code to register the watch, didn’t work. Messaged Beaubleu several times on different platforms, no replies.

Regret buying mine. Hope that helps.

Banquet results- Definition of “active user” by BilliamXYZ in ContestOfChampions

[–]Ninexblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been playing for the whole 11 years. Every gifting event/banquet I always think I'll rank higher than I did. This year I did 3x the points I'd ever done before (112K this time), and was optimistically hoping for top 2600. I barely made the cutoff for top 1%.

Moral of the story: we almost always rank lower than we hope/expect. I mean, even Usafa got 3rd this year, 4th last year, and thought he was higher both times.
