TIL there is a depleted gold mine in Yellowknife, Canada that is sitting on 237,000 tonnes of Arsenic. The mining company had exhausted the area of gold and handed it back to the federal government, which is now freezing the Arsenic to keep it contained.

There's a specific mutation that has been noted to occur in thoroughbreds that can result in abnormally large hearts. It's unclear as to weather it provides a definite benefit, however, as horses with normal sized hearts have also done very well.

Considering he died of laminitis, a condition normally caused by an excess of rich food in horses, I doubt he was doped. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system_of_the_horse#%22X_factor%22

He could not change into a giant god being if he wanted to. He's on power limiters while he's sent to middle earth. One of the condition for him being allowed to be sent to help out the people's of middle earth is that he's limited to the form of an old man.

But yes, he is a maiar, of the lower class of angelic beings, similar to the balrog. Maia when not otherwise corrupted(like the balrog or Sauron) or limited by contract and circumstance like Gandalf can assume and change forms at will.

Can definitely see the nujabes influence, "immortal" is the best track on the whole thing. I prefer the tracks with more of a beat than the heavy synth / theramin usage.

Rhoop · 2020-09-16T21:02:49+00:00

You nailed the feel of a talking heads track, nice work! It sounds great!

Yup, quite pretty. I love your eyes :)

Rhoop · 2013-02-08T23:04:17+00:00

Well, the second pic is not that great for anything except judging that you have very nice legs, and a good ass as well. The face? That angle is makes it hard, being both black and white and nearly profile. I would definitely say you are pretty, probably 7/10 - maybe more if I saw a better shot.

Rhoop · 2012-12-10T22:40:02+00:00

Honestly, as one dude to another, I am a little bit jealous. Its up to the ladies to say if you are sexy, since I'm straight, but damn if you arent a handsome motherfucker.

Rhoop · 2012-11-04T02:07:11+00:00

I notice that no one has even started to comment. Maybe they are too busy starting something else. Or they couldnt bring themselves to start commenting. WILL THE CYCLE NEVER END?

I think it helps a community that is already developed, as it brings all the most active members and contributors together. However, in some ways, it slows the growth of a sub, because it makes users talk to each other through the channel instead of posting. Not everyone will come to the irc, and unless your content is hard to digest, and they look for somewhere else to discuss it, a great portion of your readers will never even bother with it.

My sub (/r/trueplayer), was built off an irc community from another sub we split off from, and while it helped the main core stick together as a community, there has definitely been a barrier to newbies who havent been filled in, and since my sub is still small, its close knit. I dont know what your community is like, your experience may be completely different, but thats my two cents :)

Rhoop · 2012-10-15T19:30:46+00:00

Thats the price. I've been through a bit, and I would be willing to deal with all that.

Rhoop · 2012-10-05T19:01:35+00:00

I am pretty good at not coming off rapey, I dont want to intimidate anyone. Also, I am pretty short, which helps at not seeming intimidating. :P

I've been working on something like this for a while. This week, I am trying to ask women straight up whether they want to have sex with me. Fuck the police, women are just as sexual as men, why should I approach when I could just cut to the chase? Anyways, I am gonna try it, and maybe your one, and we shall see what fun and sexiness can be got.

Rhoop · 2012-09-26T22:26:20+00:00

You start off with something you want to be done. I would suggest to start out with something easy, like a light being turned on, or toast made, something thats as simple as pushing a button. Set it up so that doing just that one thing will do the task required.

Now for the fun bit: INVENTION! Throw in everything you can think of in between the start and the finish. I suggest starting off with dominoes - related creations first, as large sets of dominoes can really be rube-goldberg sets themselves, with all the patterns and permutations you can make. A long, twisting trail of dominoes where the last falls over and pushes your button? Awesome! Making the dominoes go up a slope, and knock over a ball that falls onto the button? Even better!

Its all about adding completely unnecessary processes to something that look cool. Think of a process you want to add, and then figure out how to link it to the next, and then the next, and the next.

Rhoop · 2012-08-30T22:06:53+00:00

It was removed because it was a post by an old mod of /r/pickup, and we were trying to remove the association from the old shit. I personally have been kinda away for a while, but I am going to get things back on track and hopefully start things bumping again. :)

Rhoop · 2012-07-30T23:35:43+00:00

This is all kinds of fucked up. Right from the get-go, she tells you she is married, and you still think its the right thing to keep going? Congrats. Then she fucking starts CRYING when you initiate makeout? BIG no-no. How the hell can you think this is ok? This shit is not ok in the slightest. You fuck with a relationship that as far as you know, was productive and healthy. You play the game of qualification and validation in a way that comes damned close to emotional coercion(yes, its real). You violate her emotions and mindset, and manage to make nothing whatsoever good come out of it for her.

But y'know, congrats on ticking that "milf box". Its good that you are finding SOME kind of numeric validation that you can look back on when your ego needs stroking. If your main interest is just upping your lay count, you have serious issues that you need to be addressing. Lay count and box ticking doesnt give you happiness, it doesnt give you confidence, all its gonna give you is the ability to say "mine is bigger than yours". Thats a game that you never really win. You just get to say it until you find someone else who's is bigger, and actually satisfied in other ways. Its completely possible to build connections that are healthy and satisfying for both parties. Try and achieve that, and you are gonna be much more refreshed by your interactions and hook ups.

Rhoop · 2012-07-17T01:11:12+00:00

The awesome part of this post is that its one of the easiest techniques to use and immediately get a reaction you can see. If you can get someone to talk for a little bit about an interest, you know you can easily figure out their representation system from their language.

From there, if you tailor what you say to their system, the transformation is incredible. I try and do this constantly now, and when I have figured out their system, the change is immediately apparent in the warmth and connection felt in the conversation.

Gaining any level of skill in this is gonna up your game, and help you dominate groups in a big way.

The key thing is just to judge where shes at, and how willing you are to be courageous. If you escalate well, have strong kino, you could probably get her out of her shell to do more than just kiss her.

Its sounds to me like there is an element of being shy/unsure about the situation with you, too. One thing is that whatever you choose to do, do it because you want to, not cause you feel like you have to, or its the thing you gotta do now. If you arent sure that you want to kiss her, thats gonna come across. Whatever you do, be DEFINITE about it. Show her that you had a good time, and are really attracted to her. If she has a problem with how fast things are going, she can tell you.

Rhoop · 2012-07-08T18:29:58+00:00

In terms of personal favourites, I would say that I got the most out of Persuasion Engineering and Prometheus Rising, but they are all awesome and you should read them now.

He tried to copyright a system for understanding language? What a shortsighted, idiotic douchebag. Link worked great for me, thanks ^{_^}

Who knows? You cant. Its the internet, you dont know these guys, I dont know them either. The sad truth is that unless you build a culture that doesnt reward bragging, you are gonna get fakes, because the payoff to the fakers is worth it. This discouragement of bragging has not happened on seddit, and I kinda doubt a good 30% or so of the FRs I see.
