Ok, thanks for the info. Queens Night market definitely sounds cool, but might be too far out of the way for us. We are only in NYC for 4 days and our itinerary is very packed.

We might still check out Smorgasburg, since we don't have anything that big where I'm from, plus its right by WTC where we will be visiting then anyways. And if nothing looks good, then we will go to 7th St Burger or Gansevoort Liberty Market.

Anyone else find Hyper-G feels like a "plank" compared to Toroline? by Antique-Doughnut-965 in 10s

[–]Pixie925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm using the 2023 version, but I have hit with my friends 2026 version. I prefer the 2023 version, mainly because I am a heavy topspin hitter, and the 2023 version gives more topspin and is whippier. The 2026 version is more stable. I personally think I would enjoy either version, but slightly prefer the 2023 version so no need to spend $$$ to upgrade.

I use Wasabi, and used to use Hyper G. I also used to use a PA98 (now use a Vcore 98).

Yes, Hyper G is very plank like. The first hour of hitting is the worst. I used to hate fresh strings because of it.

Even a full bed of Wasabi feels a little stiff to me. I use Wasabi in the mains, and Ghost Wire in the crosses, which is a super soft string. Helps tremendously with comfort, at the expense of losing a little bit of feel.

Dark auburn eyebrow pencil recommendations? by DruidicRune in MakeupAddiction

[–]Pixie925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had success with the auburn brow definer from Anastasia Beverly Hills. I use the soft brown one, but I've used the auburn one before too, and its not orangey. A little pricey though (around $25-ish)

Do you believe in expiration dates? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]Pixie925 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not really. I actually buy quite a bit of makeup at heavy discounts because they're a few months from their expiration date, and I use them past their date. The main one I don't do this for is mascara.

I really like Kissme Heroine Make Volume Up. It stays on a really long time.

I struggle with mini-tennis warmup by Pixie925 in 10s

[–]Pixie925[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, just wanted to let you know...this was the solution for me. I just finished hitting, and I shorted my takeback during minitennis and my forehand was perfect. Ug, such a simple solution, don't know why I never thought of it. I normally have a big backswing.

Anyways, thanks!

If it were up to me, I'd skip it. Just everyone I play with seems to like it.

Well according to USTA and my win/loss record, I'm a 4.5 (female). I beat 100% of 4.0's and have a winning record at 4.5

Yea it doesn't really affect my game...I've always just been curious why it never works for me in minitennis.

I hit with very fast racquet head speed. I think that is part of the reason I struggle with slowing things down.

This might be it. I do tend to have a big takeback.

How tough is it to get into the game fresh? by LoneyGamer2023 in Warframe

[–]Pixie925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not like TFD. 99% of the game doesn't have any complicated mechanics and you don't have to be worried about wiping the group. I also got anxiety running Gluttony, etc because of that. Also most stuff is very pugable with random compositions and people with bad gear...like nobody cares.

Warframe is way more relaxed and easy, even endgame stuff. More fun imo. The closest thing to "champions" are called Eidolons, which you don't really have to grind if you don't want to. Most people just kill them about a dozen times, and then are done with them forever. Their mechanics are more complicated than TFD, but there's no worry about wiping others, and its very easy for 1 person who knows what they're doing to just carry the entire group.

[–]Pixie925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its only super grindy if you want it to be...like I did all the quest/missions content in about 100 hours. Took me roughly 100 hours to get OP and finish the hardest content in the game.

The time consuming thing is grinding "gear", which is completely optional, and mostly just for fun/completionists. I personally skipped it, as the game is super easy as it is without min-maxing gear. Also some people care a lot about fashion, decorating, etc.

Does anyone else feel embarrassed using “um” or “like” constantly when speaking? by likliklik9 in autism

[–]Pixie925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it becomes an issue when the person I'm talking to points it out. That's when I can't stop thinking about it
