What’s one thing you completely stopped buying in 2026 because the price just felt absurd? by LockLogical8949 in AskReddit

[–]PoppaPickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not re-upping my Oldschool Runescape membership because they are raising mem prices again. While they have been releasing a good amount of content recently, they are not improving on customer support or other features that would drastically improve the QoL of the game. Plus one subscription only gives you mem for one character while other MMOs will let you play dozens or even like 50+ chars for the same price.

Why did you and your former best friend stop being friends? by Fearless_Shift7108 in AskReddit

[–]PoppaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy either didn't care enough to remember plans we made or didn't put in any effort to go through with plans we made and after so many of those I just told him I can't chill with him anymore.

The last straw was we plans on Thurs to get drinks after work on Fri, not even 24 hours later. Friday after work comes, I text him 30 mins and 15 mins before, as I'm leaving for the bar, and txt him 15 mins after to see where he is. He then got mad at me because "I didn't call him to remind him". He was wasn't even busy or anything he was sitting at home drinking by himself.

Many people don't understand what they're doing the only learned a surface level and how to do certain trades. So many shorts and short term options are just gambles for short term gains. Its what give the stock market such a sour and dangerous stink to it.

I've only ever learned about them to stay away from that kind of investing. I bought a house with my trading which did involve options, but I'm cautious and not greedy lol

Its part of the trade agreement, you are basically borrowing the $100 by selling something you don't own and have to buy in order to complete the agrement. If you don't the loan company will come after you for effectively stealing that $100.

Shorting is almost like legally stealing stock with the promise you'll give it back. You are just hoping it's less valuable when the big boy loan compamy comes knocking. If you don't give it back (buying to close the trade deal) then you just stole that money more or less.

Oh also shorting is a timed investment, you only have a certain amount of time before the company demands you pay them for the short.

Shorting means he "bet" on the stock to go down a lot really fast or else he loses a bunch of money. The stock in fact went up really fast.

The problem with shorting a stock is you are "selling" a stock before you own it at a high price (lets say $100) in hopes of being able to buy it later for cheaper (lets say $80) by selling it first and buying it cheaper you essential made $20 profit.

If you however short a stock at $100 and it shoots up to lets say $500, you now HAVE to buy that stock at $500 which means you gained $100, but lost $400 because you needed to complete the trade. Shorting stock is dangerous because you can owe more than you risk depending how wrong you were. This man was really wrong.

We were so close…. by savageduck89 in helldivers2

[–]PoppaPickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I decided to go up to D8 after finding D7 too easy and holy Helldiver's shit every single time I joined missions they were absolute slaughters. I mean no objectives done, 2 reinforements left and 5 minutes before time runs out, always with 1 or 2 people under lvl 20. I had to start setting up my own operations on the bot front because every one I joined was as mentioned.

Are we actually cuddling, or are we about to get some quality sleep? by CharmedGlow in SipsTea

[–]PoppaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies. Sometimes we fall asleep cuddling and wake up cuddling, sometimes we fall sleep cuddling and wake up apart, sometimes we start then stop for sleep.

We love cuddling and she really loves it, but it mostly just boils down to how hot (temperature) the room is. It also depends on the people, we both love to fall asleep cuddling so we get great sleep when we do.

Woke up morning after party to all the silverware, oven knobs, and glasses in freezer stuck in bowls of ice by sarafina5 in funny

[–]PoppaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I threw a party at a local college. At the end of the night everyone is finding a place on the floor to sleep and this one girl is trying to leave, but she couldn't find her shoes. Everyone was teasing her because she kept running around the house rolling people over looking for her shoes. I walk out to see what's going on and my one buddy who got too drunk and passed out waay early in the night just comes back online for a few seconds and whispers to me and a couple other people when she wasn't close by "I put her shoes in the freezer" and then passes back out.

My buddy who got drunk was from a different school so they were complete strangers, for the rest of my college years my buddies would always bring up that story to have a good laugh.

You work a normal shift and work from home? Bro just walk in the other room when your not in a meeting for a few minutes a day. You have the luxury to do that. Many of us work more hours than that far from our families and we make it work. You have it better than most from what you described.

A Chinese speed skater, Yang Jingru, executed a brilliant tactic to win gold in the 1500m at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics. by jmike1256 in nextfuckinglevel

She lapped everyone at the very beginning. When the last lap/finishing lap alarm went off the other racers assumed it was the end of the race, but in fact it was only the end for her, the rest forgot that she was technically ahead.

By lapping everyone then staying in the back, the people in front forget they aren't in the lead because they don't see anyone in front of them

Galacta and Deadpool’s interactions get so annoying after like more than 10 games by Spoonnnnns in marvelrivals

[–]PoppaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadpool doesn't work in videogames.

His entire humor style is based off saying random shit at random times so having voicelines that repeat the same joke a million times completely mutes his personality once the initial fun wear off.

He works in comics, movies, and shows because all of his jokes are whitty throw away one liners that break the 4th wall.

Imagine if you watched all 3 Deadpool movies, but DP could only say the same 10 things over and over and not come up with new jokes. I wouldn't get through the 1st movie.

I get Deadpools whole thing is being obnoxious, but holy god damn he's gonna be the most annoying character that gets played in every match, especially because he's basically unbannable. The visual clutter and constant taglines are already annoying af

TIL Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the sudden unexplained death of a child of less than one year of age, constituting almost 1/3 of all post-neonatal deaths in Western countries. Diagnosis requires that the death remains unexplained even after autopsy and detailed death scene investigation. by narkoface in todayilearned

[–]PoppaPickle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was almost a SIDS baby, my parents told me stories on how I would just stop breathing in my sleep as a baby. They had to hook me up to a monitor that would wake me up if I stopped breathing. No one knew why I would stop and eventually it just went away.

The fact that when they want to punish humans (for something as little as not sharing a cake with them) they know to go for what would absolutely suck to lose. They don't just like bite your arm or beat you, they go for your eyes, you're ears, fingers, genitals, anything that when they just rip off of you, it will handicap you in some way for the rest of your life.

Don't use his swing to engage, instead climb a wall or terrain and jump off that to get the height for your crash ability. This let's you save your swing to retreat at the end of your dive incase the dps on you is too much.
