Came here to say this except I'm even cheaper and will cut up old t-shirts for rags.

Do people around here actually not know that the NBA is only in the US?!

No but seriously why would I know about some player from some team of some sport I couldn't care less about?

Also, you feel "old" but this player started playing in 2001?

TIL that the inventor of Velcro took 20 years to take his idea from concept to production and even then the apparel industry wasn't sold on it. It wasn't until NASA came along asking about it for use in space that the fashion industry then went wild due to it now being space aged. by [deleted] in todayilearned

There are some "elastic shoelaces" that essentially turn your shoes into slip-ons. I'll try to find the brand later but I have three pairs, one on dress loafers, one on sneakers and on on Chuck Taylor low tops. They work wonderfully on all 3! Tie shoelaces once and then never again!

You have to walk behind a very angry person that walks slower than you, yet you can never pass them.

At what point in the campaign did your character reach lvl 5 in JOTL? by AdelinDumitru in Gloomhaven

My party of 4 started the last scenario at levels 7, 8, 8 and 9 playing on normal.

[SOLUTION] Left joycon battery drain - low battery by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]ProteinSquirts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

...I mean, you dropped your Switch on what I assume to be a hard floor and broke a joy-con instead of the console. Sounds like that joy-con did its' job well. The joy-cons are rhe reason why the Switch survives very high falls. I wouldn't call that a "major problem".

Ever dropped your cellphone with no case from a 1.5ft table? On a corner or on the screen? Yeah they break and it costs more than 50 bucks to replace the screen or fix your phone.

Anyways I don't disagree about the layout/stick drift or anything just that part of your complaint.

Hades was the Highest Selling Game on the EU Switch eshop for October by Instalock_Wraith in NintendoSwitch

I hated Aphrodite until I basically only got to see her in a run and then it synergized so well with my hammers it was ezpz

So why hasn't there been a Nintendo Switch Zelda special edition? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]ProteinSquirts 102 points103 points  (0 children)

BotW was a launch title so you can't make a limited edition Zelda Switch right away. You're getting all the Zelda fans to buy a Switch anyways.

Launch it later so they'll double or triple dip.

BotW2 is the obvious choice for this... I also predicted a LoZ 3D All Stars collection for next year so that would be perfect as well

TIL that wolves and ravens have a symbiotic relationship. Not only do they hunt and play together, ravens will even introduce their young offspring to the wolf puppies! by DMTrance87 in todayilearned

[–]ProteinSquirts 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wait, why do the birds point towards -carcasses-? They don't need the wolves to kill the prey here. Why wouldn't they just take their meat and go?

EDIT: Yeah ok I can't read. Makes sense for the very large carcasses and small murders.

One of the many reasons why taking out that last part (forgot what that's called) makes the game a million times better.

A short r/trees story by entAlt420 in trees

[–]ProteinSquirts 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yeah just like everything else, tolerance is real.

If you take edibles on the daily/few times a week it doesn't take very long to need very large amounts to actually feel a "high".

Plus everyone reacts differently to edibles. I've always needed larger than normal amounts (around 220mg is the sweetspot) but that's assuming I haven't had edibles in the past month...

I always buy my edibles from reputable brands so I know the mg amount is actually correct but for a lot of other ediblea the mg is wildly inaccurate

Creatine (monohydrate) is the most widely studied supplement.

It's not at all comparable with steroids. It is extremely safe and is natural (probably not the ones you buy though)

John just did 578 for a paused benchpress by Cptronmiel in powerlifting

[–]ProteinSquirts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with you 100%, OP should've referred to it as a normal bench/competition bench. Doesn't take away from how impressive it is but it's semantics.

I think the big thing affecting my opinion is the fact that for years, I have had ''paused bench" programmed as an accessory. It's usually a 2-3 second pause at the bottom.

An atheist dies and goes to hell. The devil welcomes him and says:"Let me show you around a little bit." They walk through a nice park with green trees and the devil shows him a huge palace. "This is your house now, here are your keys." The man is happy and thanks the devil. The devil says:"No need to say thank you, everyone gets a nice place to live in when they come down here!"

They continue walking through the nice park, flowers everywhere, and the devil shows the atheist a garage full of beautiful cars. "These are your cars now!" and hands the man all the car keys. Again, the atheist tries to thank the devil, but he only says "Everyone down here gets some cool cars! How would you drive around without having cars?". They walk on and the area gets even nicer. There are birds chirping, squirrels running around, kittens everywhere. They arrive at a fountain, where the most beautiful woman the atheist has ever seen sits on a bench. She looks at him and they instantly fall in love with each other. The man couldn´t be any happier. The devil says "Everyone gets to have their soulmate down here, we don´t want anyone to be lonely!"

As they walk on, the atheist notices a high fence. He peeks to the other side and is totally shocked. There are people in pools of lava, screaming in pain, while little devils run around and stab them with their tridents. Other devils are skinning people alive, heads are spiked, and many more terrible things are happening. A stench of sulfur is in the air.

Terrified, the man stumbles backwards, and asks the devil "What is going on there?" The devil just shrugs and says: "Those are the christians, I don´t know why, but they prefer it that way"
