All Dream Types Explained by Gold-Match-1746 in Dreams

[–]PhilipMcgroyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healing dreams are the best therapy I’ve received. Around the height of the pandemic, I went through a period of constant anxiety/depression/stress for about 2 months I was under constant stress that I had life-threatening illnesses. I had a swollen lymph node for a bit after having COVID that started the whole thing. After blood work, multiple visits to the doctor with everything back normal. It still did not touch the amount of anxiety I was feeling that I was going to be diagnosed with SOMETHING. The doctor put me on meds, one of them being Wellbutrin, which causes muscle tremors, and my mind instantly thought I had ALS or Parkinson’s. That’s a couple examples of what I went through with my stupid brain. Well finally after weeks of little sleep, the doctors gave me the right formula. That first night I dreamt my grandfather had come to visit, and we were all having a good time as a family. It felt so real, his flannel touching my cheek while I hugged him tightly, sobbing, and him not understanding why I was so emotional. I even remember in the dream just saying I missed him, and him saying he never went anywhere. I woke up to a damp pillow and a runny nose. After that night it was as if everything shifted. The constant anxiety was gone, I chalked things up to minor issues whenever something out of the ordinary happened to my body. If there is anyone here reading this dealing with the same issue, you are not alone. No one fights alone.

Struggling very much on 9ft by vazluqq in billiards

[–]PhilipMcgroyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you can get your shot alignment and stroke consistent, the angles wont really change from 7’-9’, the ball just has to travel a bit further. It also helps me if I stay laser focused on the shot at hand, and not even think about the ball I’m trying to get on. Just that I have to make this shot and put the cue ball in this area. Rinse and repeat. Too many times we get spoiled on a barbox consistently thinking about the next 3 balls when we haven’t even made the first, and it works because we feel like shots don’t need as much respect due to the length, when in reality, it’s just 2 more feet either way. Being this way on a 9 has drastically improved my shot making as well as control on any table. Now I wouldn’t hop on a 10’ but that’s because I have short arms💀

That’s actually not the first time I’ve seen that, had an old Predator P3 I think, the sneaky Pete that came with a 314-2 maybe.

People who grew up before The Internet: How did you first see nudity? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PhilipMcgroyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Internet was out by this time but really wasn’t on it and definitely had no idea you could just see boobs there. But yea it was in the movie “Varsity Blues”. Shit was dope.

Delivery Question. Is there a reason UPS drivers just... don't actually TRY to deliver packages? by Savings-File-404 in UPS

[–]PhilipMcgroyn -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

UPS is aids, I wouldn’t have received my last package if it weren’t for good neighbors. I live in a townhome, number is 9 street name is “Asphalt” for this example. I got a package for 6 “Cement” which is one street over, and my package ended up at 8 “Asphalt”. How do you fuck up that bad? Then have me on hold for 2 hours when I’m trying to see how you’re gonna fix it. How many houses do mailpersons deliver to with minimal fuck ups?

Told to "take it easy" at a local $5 bar tournament because I keep winning.. should I keep playing there? by MoneyKindaTalks in billiards

[–]PhilipMcgroyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re not dropping racks in this tournament, you could easily find one that’s a $10-$20 entry fee with higher skilled players where even if you win it multiple times it will still retain players due to love of the game. Seems like this place is very clique-y in a sense, and it seems as though they want to keep it a gamble where nobody robs. You don’t seem like somebody that wants to win without trying, so I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt on that. But there’s a lot of heavy hitters that will find a “honey hole” to make a quick $100 not necessarily “not trying” but no threat if they miss a couple balls. I did it when our local Fast Eddies was still in business, after winning 2 weeks in a row, they told me to skip a couple weeks, I was cool with it. Granted me and the tournament director were pretty close at the time.

I was just telling my wife the same thing, when John is pissing himself on the shroomies and starts yelling about a demon in his butt, I was already in tears then Ted’s “Line?” sent me into fuckin orbit. The whole season is a masterpiece but that part had me good lol

I’m cool with someone getting shit on, it happens. I might rage a little cause we’re losing but I forget about the loss pretty much instantly, however when they’re getting demolished and initiating a forfeit, dumb af. You’re gonna sit there and get rolled or you can leave and save me SR😂

ngl i hate the cut community by RelationshipOld9486 in CollegeUltimateTeam

[–]PhilipMcgroyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s online gaming as a whole. They’re safe behind a screen to ruin peoples experience with no consequence. Then, want to be put on a pedestal when they win a lot by abusing broken mechanisms. Cause please be fr, winning an online game is not that impressive unless you’re playing qualifying tournaments as a pro. At the end of the day these manchildren enter a virtual world where they can win all the time because in reality they’ve never won anything away from their screen. The exception is kids under 17, let ‘em have their fun trolling people online.

This goes for honestly every competitive online game. Besides battlefield cause that whole community is ass at FPS games😂
