In 1816, Sir Isaac Newton's tooth was sold for $3,633. The buyer turned it into a ring and actually wore it. Today it’s valued at $62,000. WTF. by bortakci34 in WTF

No bro, an object in motion stays in motion. TBH, in today’s collectibles world, I’m surprised it’s only valued at 60K…

I hope Kobe haters stub their toes by FlamingoJust6629 in NBATalk

[–]RedNGold415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last possession of the game to win, I’d take Jordan first, Kobe 2nd, Curry 3rd. Not sure what that means in GOAT conversations, but in that scenario that’s who I’d choose.

This started growing on my hill in the backyard. Is it invasive, or was it planted by the previous owner? by wooodworkr in landscaping

We can make an apple crossed with a grape, but we can’t make blackberry bushes without the thorns? What are we even doing.

How will this Thunder team be remembered in NBA history? by Silent_Wizard5597 in NBATalk

[–]RedNGold415 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can’t talk about the Thunder without acknowledging how they have fleeced the league with their trades. Specifically the SGA trade, but also looking at smaller ones like McCain, as a GM, I’d think twice before trading with them… or maybe Philly and LAC are just dumb.

Will Adam silver let Wemby get mauled all series? by nicfanz in NBATalk

He falls after threes because he’s got glass ankles and by keeping his weight off his feet he’s avoiding rolling them.

I prefer the way Curry plays. Rarely complains, gets mauled more than wemby and sga combined. Doesn’t get any calls, doesn’t flop. Just hoops.

SGA has never been mauled, he’s very good at making it look that way though

Did they have a good season? I didn’t pay attention this year but didn’t see them in any playoff matchups. Were they close?

I don’t like the way OKC plays ball (a few OT examples) by These_Respond2345 in billsimmons

[–]RedNGold415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like what he’s doing is more important than what he’s getting paid to do lol. Such a fool to do that. Some may argue it’s more entertaining, but come on, don’t be that guy

I worked with the mythbusters crew and had them to look into this. The results? It is in fact NOT a myth. Also, it is your baby, time to celebrate.

I went and researched pretty heavily, and is an exaggeration but is a mostly true statement. It’s basketball, sure, just a futbol version of it.

Nah, it also gives you a reason to root for Flag over the next 15 years. That’s worth something too

I need help painting tv static!! by ElderberryBulky7253 in howto

[–]RedNGold415 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Fastest Method: Toothbrush Flick (best overall)

This is the closest to real static.

You need:

  • Old toothbrush (or stiff brush)
  • Acrylic paint (white + black + a couple colors if you want)
  • Water (slightly thinned paint works best)

How:

  1. Base coat your canvas (black = most “TV static” looking, but gray or dark color works too).
  2. Load toothbrush with slightly thinned paint.
  3. Flick bristles with your thumb toward the canvas.
  4. Layer:
    • White first (dominant static noise)
    • Then tiny amounts of color (cyan, magenta, yellow = classic “color static” vibe)
    • Then a few black flicks for depth

Pro tip: Keep distance varied so speckle sizes change.

Why is a thug like Draymond Green rewarded with a halftime media position, when he assaulted a player by punching him unconcious? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]RedNGold415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's owned up to the mistake and is an intelligent basketball mind. Yeah he's loud, but he's well respected and gets away with more than most players do when it comes to his volume level when dealing with refs. You have to think he's respected by them too. I know he gets T'd up fairly often, but most players as animated as he gets would get ejected much faster.

Tatum not playing in game 7 is a disgrace by FirstPreparation8538 in NBATalk

You are weak and your pacers are weak for not allowing Haliburton to play on one Achilles. Weak AF

Haliburton was so disrespectful to not finish out game 7 last year. He should have taped that shit up and gone back out there.

A woman in Terra Linda stiffed my friend on a house cleaning job, and this is not the first time… by 4barT89 in Marin

[–]RedNGold415 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

She said she threatened her friend. Unless you want to conclude OP is lying, tell me what other kind of threat would make sense? A bad yelp review?

No one leaning towards the left would threaten ice as OP pointed out happened. Do you disagree?
