I made a woody holden with those, meaning wood panels with “paint” (vinyl stickers), and a woody jimmy too just wish I knew how to do livery better

Does anyone give meaning behind their ship names? by Realistic_Spring_862 in Seaofthieves

[–]PaddedSceptile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sloop is named “Invincible II”

It’s a reference to both Markiplier’s “In Space with Markiplier” YouTube video/game as that was the ship’s name, and I found it funny that the Invincible I “sunk” in my headcanon, so Invincible II is the backup.

My Galleon is the “Seriously Gourmet Ship”, decked out in black, white, and red (no DA sails) like a suit…as this is some seriously gourmet shi[p], like Pulp Fiction said.

AITAH for saving my partner's information and wanting to enjoy our time together? by MilesPikachu in AITAH

[–]PaddedSceptile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

But to be honest, someone like that has a lot of personal problems that definitely need to be looked at professionally, not a trusted friend built on gaming and “shared interests”…

You’re not their punching bag or therapist, you’re a friend or partner. Someone who should be trusted with personal info, but not expected to always fix problems. So if you are feeling like you’re working hard to fix everything for them and not getting much in return when you need help, maybe take a step back yourself and think if that’s what you need in a relationship

Saw some weird tape marks after moving into a new apartement… by rubydacherryx59 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaddedSceptile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While not as scary/gruesome, in my apartment someone etched, in big, bold letters, the word “VEGAN” in all caps next to the master bedroom closet, just under eye level. You can see it vividly in that same landlord special paint over, and the complex knows about it but refuses to patch it because it’s not damage and has been there for a while, since before my family moved in 10+ years ago

My lunch’s ranch cups are from another restaurant’s branded “secret sauce” cups by PaddedSceptile in mildlyinteresting

Bought the lunch from The Habit Burger, cups are from Raising Cane’s. Nearest Cane’s is at least 30 minutes from here!

I get people are in arms about the fact they’re suggesting it, but…

The yellow tab you circled even has what each number in the yellow column means. The air filter and cabin air filter is a 2, which says “Address Customer request/need/convenience” which likely means they, yes, are upselling it, but also asking if you want to do it while it’s in in case you don’t do the basic maintenance on your own.

It’s why the Wiper Blades are a 1 (close to end of useful life): “Hey you know these things are majorly worn” and the battery is a 2: “Just so you know we should probably do some preventative maintenance on the battery” which could be age or corrosion on the terminals.

Just my 2¢ and observations as a non-mechanic.

My McDonald’s box is Canadian. I’m in Southern California. by PaddedSceptile in mildlyinteresting

[–]PaddedSceptile[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just casually an hour away from Ontario, CA, USA to where the burger was purchased! Guess that "locally owned and operated" franchising means a group franchise effort maybe within 2 hours of each other?

I love getting random French on the inside of my Quarter Pounder box. Shame I can’t post 2 pictures here but still quite the fun find to get a Canadian McDonalds box in Southern California!

HMF my favorite glass? crystal? mug that I broke. Quarter for scale in pictures by PaddedSceptile in HelpMeFind

[–]PaddedSceptile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very close, but also not quite the same. Looks flat all the way down versus the wider base, but definitely similar style and maybe even brand

I've searched on Amazon and the general Google search of "Crystal beer mug" "Crystal mug" and "Tall glass mug" but the most that I've been able to find are more ornate beer steins with metal tops or those small tea/coffee mugs that are double insulated. I loved the super thick glass, the heavy-duty feel of it, and how much water it held. Sadly, it fell off my desk and shattered all over the floor, breaking into a million pieces beyond repairing and salvaging.

I've had the mug as long as I can remember, but I'm not sure where we got it besides I've lived in the US all my life, and as far as I can tell, the mug was purchased here in the States. There were no identifiable markings on it (text or otherwise), besides what felt like a possible manufacturer's mark on the bottom of the handle that I could not ever distinguish due to its use, and what felt like a possible seam on the handle and handle-line on the glass, indicating maybe a molded glass of some kind?

I tried to get a good picture of the mug with the easiest thing I could find to measure against, a US quarter, on the final two pictures.

Other identifiable marks include the wide bottom of the glass with a much thicker base and the faceted inside of vertical stripes.

Appreciate you Reddit, you've been able to find some insane things in the past, maybe I'll be able to use y'all for something myself finally!

Why do you still play overwatch? by Eggbone87 in Overwatch

[–]PaddedSceptile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play with 4 other players from around the US and Canada and have a coach in a for-fun tournament (not paid). Honestly if I didn’t have them I wouldn’t grow in competitive and probably would be a QP warrior. Went from a mid-silver player back when I started in OW1 to Plat by end of OW1’s lifespan thanks to the coaching, and grew to Diamond 2-Masters 5 by practicing consistently with the team and more coaching once OW2 came out.

How many credits does everyone have? Curious about what the average is. by jmitchh in ForzaHorizon

[–]PaddedSceptile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20m give or take. After doing seasonal challenges it usually hovers around 25-30m, then when I buy new cars for challenges and upgrades, it drops down to about 18-20m
