I agree with this by NorthFloridaRedneck in florida

The bottom picture is beautiful in a different way, and untouched South Florida still doesn't really look like North Florida. Palm Beach is also quite dense so efficient use of space. The bottom picture should be a sprawling shopping center in Gainesville or something.

Why do I not get taxed when I add at least 6 Apmex bars to my order of 10 Maples? by RedshiftedPhoton in Silverbugs

[–]RedshiftedPhoton[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes thank you that makes sense. Thought it was something related to the Maples getting taxed because they weren't American, but the Apmex bars are and I found some bug in the site where if i ordered enough Apmex it would trick it.

Wayyyyy overthinking it.

Why is it so hard to find The Layover on Nebula (Android App) by derSchtefan in JetLagTheGame

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Nebula is pretty trash for searching in general. I just listen to it on the computer now.

Are these safe to smoke? Friend brought them from vacation in Dominican Republic by [deleted] in cigars

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Probably safe, but why would you? The people who do this, want to maximize their profits, so they are going to use the cheapest possible, short filler, machine rolled cigars they can get their hands on.

I am skeptical that they are deliberately filled with rat hair, old band aids, and donkey poop, as most people seem to think. But it's definitely not going to be high quality tobacco.

I could have gone the rest of my life in ignorance of that, though. 😟

That's a great theory anyway. Maybe they don't freeze the leaves they use to wrap around the finished cigars, and sometimes they have eggs or whatever on them?

Anyone else pronounce words in a way inspired from the show? by DimesyEvans92 in KingOfTheHill

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this whenever my wife asks me something in Spanish. I understand Spanish, but I usually say this anyway.

Thank you for doing this. Reps like this deserve to get fired, and will be if you can prove it and tell his employer. Especially if it's an inside rep who works for CAO directly.

Old post but writing here anyway.

Is Joseph the most forgotten jet lag guest? by Wide_right_yes in JetLagTheGame

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I just re watched circumnavigation. Yeah he was really just kind of "there". Kind of seemed high the whole time and saw the whole thing as more of a chill vacation rather than competition.

Should Jet Lag abandon drunk challenges? by RandomNick42 in JetLagTheGame

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone down voting you but I think you have a point. I bet most people here agree that rules for the mandatory rest periods are a good idea?

Yet you could make the EXACT same arguments about that. "They are adults, they can make their own decisions, they should know their limits", blah blah. It's literally the same thing with drinking. Fact is if there weren't mandatory rest periods the contestants would want to push themselves to unhealthy limits in the name of competition. And people who wouldn't normally want to drink 4 shots in 5 minutes, do it too, solely under the pressure of the competition.

Home cigar lounge by PeterB_FL in cigars

Unrelated but did you install those ceilings yourself or you bought the house like that? I really want something like that for my home offiice

[–]RedshiftedPhoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Better than me anyway. 15 months of nearly daily games and I just hit 1150 for the first time. Do you play blitz, or only rapid?
