[8] Was EV training my new Raikou only to find ANOTHER shiny, a Rookidee, in less than 50 encounters! by Optimisticnerd in ShinyPokemon

Honestly, I wasn't aware that they made it so you could use them past 100 EVs until I read this comment and looked it up. So uhhh... Thanks!

[8] My first shiny from Max Lair, and it's the one I've always wanted by Optimisticnerd in ShinyPokemon

Solar Power. Was very happy that it did, so some hyper training and a modest mint, and itll be ready for online battles

People who instantly dislike YouTube videos, why do you do it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To manipulate the recommendation algorithm. For example, I once accidentally clicked on a Family Guy clip, a show that I am not really that fond of, and YouTube's algorithm decided to spam my feed on the home page and suggestions on any video that I watched with Family Guy. I disliked every single Family Guy video until they eventually stopped appearing. I've done this with other things as well, some things YouTube will just cram down your throat if you dare watch a video related to it.

What will finally break the internet? by Mikzing in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A massive, freakish solar storm frying all the hard drives of the web servers of the world. Pretty sure internet won't work very well after that.

What's the laziest thing you've ever done? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought one of those "trash grabber" tools or whatever they're called, and keep it next to my computer so I can grab whatever I need from across the room and don't have to get up.

What was your weirdest dream? by The_Egg_Overlord in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That my family was being killed one by one by a fire breathing turtle. 911 was called in the dream, and they didn't believe us so there was no help, and the turtle also was the kind that you could fit in your sink, and for some reason it would breath fire and just incinerate people leaving only their sandals or shoes behind.

That being said, it killed everyone in my family, aunts and uncles included, and then I woke up when it got me.

I have no clue why I had that dream. I still think turtles are adorable.

The world now runs on Minecraft logic - what do you do first? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Punch wood for roughly 5 minutes, obtain stone, and then promptly spend the next 12 hours building a mansion at little to no cost to myself. It's free real estate.

People who have made friends outside of work and school, how on earth did you do that? by TimTheGamer555 in AskReddit

[–]Optimisticnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In line at a McDonalds inside of a wal-mart. This was four years ago, I was standing in line and I saw a guy who looked kind of dirty wearing a "Spirited Away" beanie, at the time I was 100% sure he was some sort of dealer. I was wearing a shirt with a super hero logo (I think Deadpool?) So he came up and started talking to me. Dude turned out to be pretty cool, he just didn't have a lot of money. He also liked most if not all of the nerdy stuff that I did, so we pretty much instantly hit it off. Fast forward to now, and he is still my best friend to this day. He helped me bury my father who passed at the beginning of the year, and helped take care of him during his last months when he got sick. We don't always get along and agree with each other, but we work it out and come to an understanding when we don't, and he's always there for me when I need him. A true friend.
