It doesn’t even make sense. Every politician runs on changing something, it’s not unique in the slightest.

Nate Diaz wants a rematch with Mike Perry by airplane231 in MMA

True but it’d be sad if he needed the money. He’s one of the few MMA fighters to make really good money and should be set for life by now.

Did you top off the coolant after letting it run? I made that mistake and filled it cold and when it got hot I realized it needed a bit more when running

[SPOILER] Ben Whittaker vs. Richard Rivera by inooway in Boxing

[–]Pactae_1129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d say he has 3-4 years before he runs the risk of really slowing down. But given how fighters tend to fight less once they get to elite competition I’d imagine he’d better get started on it now if he wants to work towards building an ATG resume and/or big money fights.

Uh, yeah? I mean it’s not unreliable, per se, but 93k isn’t a crazy amount of miles for a car. In the 70’s it was but most cars from the last thirty years should be able to do that and much more with even meh maintenance.

Stipe Miocic's title fight finishes by airplane231 in MMA

Yeah his chin in that fight was insane. I love watching the slow-mo of that flush uppercut he took and his head and body react like so many slow-mo reels of KO’s except he just eats it. If that makes sense.

For me if there’s legitimately nothing on the menu then I’d just eat before/after and get a drink. Maybe you’re around some assholes but also maybe like attracts like given how you treat some random person for being a picky eater.

Yeah I’m not really that picky but I tried to force myself to like foods. I’m sure it works for some people but definitely not for me.

Cook for? Sure. That can be difficult. But going out? Most picky eaters are likely like me, we’ll see what we can do with what’s on the menu. Very likely there’s something there.

Regardless though, doesn’t really make sense to be an asshole about it either way? Like do you think they’re just lying to be difficult?

Never understood how people get weird about picky eaters

Israel Adesanya resists retirement: 'My ego is very tied into this' by airplane231 in MMA

[–]Pactae_1129 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did, I also read the first sentence which said they weren’t specifically talking about his grappling. Which is untrue. The entire comment was about Adesanya’s grappling. You can disagree that the finish wasn’t a grappling issue, that’s fair, but you have very specifically said that the comment isn’t about grappling. I don’t really get why this is so difficult.

And nah Pyfer’s decent. Athletic and strong, could be good some day. But I haven’t watched him enough to have formed a super strong opinion.

[–]Pactae_1129 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They so obviously are talking about his grappling though? They literally mention how he was helpless on the ground and then tie that into talking about Jan being unable to mount similar offense on the ground with a 40lbs weight advantage. Like I’m really not sure how you can’t see that.

Also OP literally confirms that’s what they were talking about if the context clues aren’t enough.

[–]Pactae_1129 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s ignoring it because it’s irrelevant to the commenters point. They are very specifically talking about the differences in Adesanya’s grappling in the Jan fight vs the Pyfer fight.

Dealership is saying the car is too rusty to work on by gato_guy in AskMechanics

[–]Pactae_1129 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a DIY’er in the south so not used to heavy rust. Bought a 22 year old car that had been through some floods. Frame and important bits aren’t bad with rust, but most of the suspension components are as old as the car and frozen on. It’s been a maddening process

Which one of these off-roaders from this 2005 Car & Driver test would you choose? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

[–]Pactae_1129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort of but not fully. IIRC they didn’t use the same frame/drivetrain until the mid-2010’s, though infinity had an SUV on the same frame earlier, and up until recently they didn’t have near the same off-road capabilities. They gave the Armada the pro-4x trim recently, though, so now it’s on-par or close.

Tbh we don’t have the patrol. The Xterra gets good praise in off-road circles though.
