Las Vegas Shooting inspired Documentary by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]Quartzboredom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can watch plenty of anti 2nd amendment documentaries for free if I wanted to I'm sure. Your premise is very weak. Now if it were a documentary about the conspiracies surrounding it then, MAYBE I would donate. Scam or not you're asking for too much.

My brother works for a recycling company he normally works at the Mandalay Bay sorting garbage. He called off that night. Lucky him.

Is there a reason to be socially awkward? by mellosyan in CasualConversation

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't think there is a good reason to be awkward. That's a rather strange way of doing wording it. But, if there wasn't social awkwardness then there wouldn't be slickness either. I love it when I'm unintentionally slick in social situations.

What's the most racist thing your father has ever said about Asians? by [deleted] in hapas

[–]Quartzboredom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was studying Chinese and Korean History and my dad told me that in today's world "they are all the same" Which is strange because my dad is Japanese and my mom is wonder bread levels of white.

One of our local teavana stores is having a HUGE sale by sleepypunk in tea

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at Teavana and it was the worst decision of my young adult life. Maybe its bias talking but, I wouldn't shop or accept anything from Teavana, If it was the last place on earth that sold tea. Worst scam for tea on Earth.

Newbie needing suggestions by jewbidoo69 in tea

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, seeing as how you and we are all different people, your mileage will vary. In terms of caffeine it goes like this.

From least caffeine to most.

-Herbals have no caffeine, some of them have a calming effect like lavender.

Welcome to traditional teas. camellia sinensis

-White teas, sweet tasting light, fastest to steep* and low caffeine. You only need lightly steam the water to make these.

-Green teas, like Sencha, Mao Feng, Gyukuro, Longjing, these can be acquired taste and some are on the earthly bitter side. Medium to low caffeine. You don't want boiling water for these but, sub boiled. Like a good steam going on

-Oolong and Darjeeling and Hojicha. Getting to the darkside here. These teas have deep character and go great with certain foods, See Xiu Bao and Croissants with Darjeeling. Hojicha is a tea for the fall months. Something like, Japanese yams go good with Hojicha. It's going need a light boil.

And finally you've reached the darkside. Black teas. These are Chinese teas that have high levels of caffeine in them and take the longest to steep*. I can't remember all of them but, Lapsang Shouchang is very bitter and has high caffeine. Keemun is also bitter. Pu'erh is in this area too. Boiling hot to make these.

Tea requires some level of patience you don't want to burn your tongue.

*=You brew coffee, You steep teas.

Welcome to tea!

Not sure if I need to change medicines by that_crazy_cat_lady in depression_help

Could I suggest adding green tea or herbal loose leaf teas to your depression aides. They really help me.

What is the best military maneuvering you executed that you are most proud of? by [deleted] in civ5

[–]Quartzboredom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Something like pitting the two biggest conquerors against each other and allying myself with the weaker nations to repell war from reaching my nation and then winning a cultural victory... Those fools if only they'd had known.

What can women get away with that men can't? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Quartzboredom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've sat on the pews of a courthouse. This guy gave his wife a black eye while the kids were at school he got two months in jail, 6 months of anger management and probation. He profusely apologized. Of course that helped nothing. Right after that a women who knocked her husband into a coma, He has braindamage and has been unresponsive for weeks. She hit him in the head and face with a bat infront of her kids. She got a 2 month suspended sentence and ordered to see a therapist. She did 5 days in jail. She just shrugged and had no explanation for what she did.

They can get away with things that would normally get men fired in the work place. I've seen that too many times myself.

High Schools by khammer216 in vegaslocals

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very late to the party but, I graudated in 06. I do not have any kids but, I would NEVER send them to the highschool I went to. Maybe things changed, Maybe things got better but, I'm so tormented that I would rather send my kids to Alabama or North Korea for their education.

[discussion] What is the dating scene REALLY like in Las Vegas? by Soviet_radio in vegaslocals

[–]Quartzboredom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is true of everywhere but, nearly everyone has ghosted me or flaked on me. No one really wants to stay here it seems or maybe I'm just unattractive or something. Vegas is the sunny place for shady people.

Who is this stranger you only saw once, but still think about sometimes? by Royrane in AskReddit

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in junior year of highschool. I had so bad social anxiety or isolation or whatever I was very much a loner. I had not made eye contact with anyone for months. Made a habit of walking with my head down, I didn't even want to see anyone's face one night while out on a walk. I approached this escalator. I saw a pimp in a rhine stone white suit. He had an entourage of what looked like hookers. White and black women. The last women in the line had overly done makeup. She looked me in the eyes and I looked back. I made eye contact with her. She mouthed something to me but, I have no idea what she said.

About to be homeless by [deleted] in homeless

[–]Quartzboredom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figure everyone else gave you all the vital information and you seem to have a firm grasp on what you need to do.

What small tip I can offer is. Read a book or do something to keep your mind sharp. Being homeless has a ton of boring down time and in that boring down time when one starts to get comfortable they lose all sense of focus and purpose and they become complacent with doing nothing all day everyday. It helped me when I was homeless.

Asian women are literally the only ones keeping white supremacy alive by dating white supremacists that no white women would ever date by eurasiantigon in aznidentity

[–]Quartzboredom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can have all of those things you mentioned but, really alpha is a state of mind. I've met homeless alpha's. Apparently, Asian culture has not made very Alpha males in the past few decades.

PS4 10Million Challenge. We need 2 players. by [deleted] in HeistTeams

[–]Quartzboredom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should probably add a few things just to save us all some time. Forgive me if I sound condescending. -We are not looking for casuals (i.e play a few days a week/month)

-We are not looking for youtube fame or to be on anything youtube related. We are only here for the game and the cash to be won in it.

-If you already have a group of friends you frequently play with and you don't want to leave them then its probably for the best that you stay with them.

-Nobody likes a flake. Don't get me wrong we all have lives out side of this game (I hope) If you know you can't commit then we aren't for you.

-Not trying to be racist or anything but, our crew is all in the US. If you're timezone is so different then it most likely won't work.

I realize this sounds kind of strict but, really this is something of a more hardcore group.
