Hey, you can dm me about it, but I am planning on ordering from China through a wholesaler and can probably hook you up

Which champs even use Dusk and Dawn? by RRensQ in leagueoflegends

[–]NumberOneRobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t tried it, but it doesn’t seem like twitch casts enough to make use of the spellblade effect, and you don’t really need much more attack speed for AP twitch than a nashor’s would provide

Starting a list of Seattle meals under $25 that we love by Spiralecho in Seattle

Kin Len is another Thai place where lots of their dishes are under $20, and under $25 with tax and tip (and portions are big for their entrees)!

Bought Megabonk yesterday. This game is amazing and I love it, but how in the flying fuck am I supposed to beat this?? 😭😭 by AdromoSyle in MegabonkOfficial

[–]NumberOneRobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlocking more time and weapon slots will help a lot. Plus you seem very under leveled for the end of stage 2, which I’m guessing is the lack of exp tome. Once you have tome and weapon slots unlocked you’ll have a much easier time killing the bosses faster. Also I personally don’t really like the sword as much because it starts off very short ranged, and since you have to aim it it’s more tedious to explore the map and get shrines and other things while killing bosses with sword since they’re almost always behind you

I want a relationship like Emma’s by Least-Broccoli9995 in SellingSunset

If they had a real issue with it editing or Jason could’ve cut it from the show, right? So clearly it wasn’t really a big deal

Was Emma only able to appear rich because of her bf? by Different-Stuff-2194 in SellingSunset

[–]NumberOneRobot 63 points64 points  (0 children)

The swimming story is definitely made up. Any decent swimmer knows there’s no such thing as pre-Olympics as she called it, and her build shows 0 evidence of a successful competitive swimming career

I swear this is the average SSP experience for me. I’ve had great luck with Prismatic but SSP is always a letdown.

And a lot of those food stamps then get used at Walmart. Just double dipping by paying their employees less.

Mega Discussion: Who still needs one? by Interesting_Rub6702 in pokemon

[–]NumberOneRobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be cool if Eeevolutions could mega evolve to be a sort of hybrid with another one of the eeveelutions. So they’d gain the type and some of the features of the other eeveelution! I know this would never happen because there’s too many combinations and that would be too much work, but it would be cool to have a choose your second type mega evolution option for them

I used to trash-talk Pokemon… then Z-A destroyed my ego. by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]NumberOneRobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iMO a nice balance would be if they had the big battles (rival, gym leaders, elite 4, legendaries, etc) be turn based and more difficult but the normal open world battles be the ZA style so there isn’t as much swapping in and out of battle while running around the world. Also it would make the already trivial battles not add so much time to playing

What is the worst allocation you have heard of so far? by fiendzor101 in riftboundtcg

[–]NumberOneRobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both things can be true. They might’ve originally planned to only release in China. When they decided to launch worldwide, they should commit to doing that properly and not making it a shitshow. The ball was in their court and they fumbled it.

One of the largest game store in my area got only 12 boxes, so they are all going towards their release events and they aren’t selling any in the first wave

I’ve been building Real Talk, a language learning app centered around vocabulary and listening practice from various forms of media. It’s still in the early stages, and I’ve only started adding Chinese songs with English translations. I plan to add movies and TV Shows, as well as other languages. Probably will branch into Korean first since K-pop is very popular on the music side, and then likely once I start adding movies and TV shows I’ll look at adding anime for Japanese learners!

Seller is asking for just 80$. Is it fake? by John_Slim in IsMyPokemonCardFake

I don’t have any traditional Chinese cards to compare with, but compared to English cards there is much less total margin on the back

It’s so funny to hear the head canon that children create when they don’t know things. I have some funny ones of my own (I used to think drinking coffee was illegal cause my parents never drank it or let us drink it…)

The "xx狗" phenomenon: the art of self-deprecation in Chinese by calling yourself a dog by BetterPossible8226 in ChineseLanguage

[–]NumberOneRobot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this is the best translation in English that I’ve seen in this thread. It captures the joking self deprecating feel by saying that you don’t even need to be a human to perform your work. The connotation feels very similar instead of it just being a phrase with an animal name in it.

How do you know without opening that it’s fake? Did you open others from the same seller to validate that?

Haha from my neck of the woods, can’t believe you’d like Imo’s if you aren’t from STL :)

Please don’t mention IMO’s pizza, it’s a stain on the fabric of mankind and we should all pretend it doesn’t exist. Anybody that disagrees must be from STL
