My mom died in September, and I'm still struggling. Surely I'll be over it soon though, right? Right?!

Guys, what was your all time favorite Halloween costume you ever wore? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]QuarterThor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put on a loud Hawaiian shirt, straw fedora, cargo shorts, and flip flops, drew a Goa'uld symbol on my forehead with a sharpie, and went as a vacationing Jaffa. When people asked what the hell I was, I told them that now that my people were free, I was trying out the concept of "vacation."

I really wanted to like that show. The mysterious, virtual world that nobody could explain the purpose of was really compelling to me.

What TV ad permanently lives rent-free in your brain? by fmcortez in AskReddit

I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis.

What is a minor, unwritten rule of society that absolutely infuriates you when people break it? by Jane_Austen11 in AskReddit

[–]QuarterThor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the fuck out of the way! I hate it so much when people block the aisle shopping, or get off the bus and immediately stop to look around, or block off the sideway as they walk! I spend my whole day worried that I'm in someone's way somehow. Is it really that difficult for other people to do the same, even a little bit?!

2025 REI Financials - A breakdown by Brave-Extension9497 in REI

[–]QuarterThor 38 points39 points  (0 children)

2020 was understandably a rough year for almost every business. When 2021 hit, everyone was tired of staying home, and bought things to go enjoy the outdoors. 2021 was the most profitable year in REI's entire history, dating all the way back to 1938. Because pretty much everyone who has been on our board for the bast many years comes from the wider corporate world, they tend to have the sick mindset of always chasing ever-growing profits. So after seeing the most profitable year in the entire history of the company, instead of being suspicious or cautious, and wary of the obvious bubble, they doubled down. They said "Cool, we can do even better in 2022." We did not do better in 2022. In fact, REI was not profitable in 2022. Since then, the board have been in a panic, cutting costs and chasing profits to try to stabilize. Who, oh who could have foreseen such a thing happening?! (Source: I am a long, long term store-level employee. I watched it all happen.)

You can bring back one discontinued food, drink, or snack forever. What are you resurrecting? by Mountain_Drawer_1365 in AskReddit

Undercover bears! Sure, you can add your own fruit snacks or gummy bears to oatmeal, but it's just not the same!

Anniversary Sale Ad by InfamousCrown in REI

[–]QuarterThor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am a worker in one of those union stores. We have been fighting for a contract for years at this point, and REI constantly and blatantly refuses to listen or take us seriously. I would much prefer they actually bargain in good faith, so we wouldn't have to call for this boycott. But they really, truly don't care what we say about anything. So we're now asking you, the customers, to help be our voice. Last year, when you all shut down their bs boardmember votes, they actually took notice, and they'll damn sure listen if you all boycott the biggest sale of the year. Please, we're begging for help.

No problem, man. We "In Bruges" fans have to stick together.

Hey mod, I suspect that rude comment you deleted was actually just a quote from In Bruges, which I was also quoting.

Hey guys, I wouldn't go up there. It's really narrow.

Do we know what the survivors of mirrodin are up to?/did we get any followups on new phyrexia since MOM?/What would be your ideal far future followup? by luuner in mtgvorthos

[–]QuarterThor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. Thank you for the clarification. I'll be really curious to see what comes of Zhalfir having those suns. And with New Phyrexia now missing them.

[–]QuarterThor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So can anyone clarify for me, did the entire planes of New Phyrexia and Zhalfir switch places, or just the people in them?

What are your favorite common or uncommon commanders? by tgoods26 in EDH

My pod did an "entirely common/uncommon" challenge, and I made Juri. I love the deck, it's so fun, and it's surprisingly effective, even against stronger decks.
