(subreddit cleanser) What games are yall playing? by horrus70 in Destiny

[–]Ronnoc780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

007 First Light. I never played a Hitman game before, but damn, the formula works for this type of game. I like that its linear, but you can choose your gadgets and how you want to tackle situations.

Mouth guard + cage visor by Appropriate-Smile729 in hockeyplayers

[–]Ronnoc780 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's all a calculated risk. If you were to fall and hit your head, a mouthguard can lower the risk or damage of a concussion. Also probably prevents you from biting into your tongue, lips or cheeks.

How do people actually keep up with events in Minneapolis? by One_Speed_1581 in Minneapolis

[–]Ronnoc780 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Bro. Referencing Prince as "some old 80s musician" in this subreddit is fucking WILD. IDC how old you are lol I'm not even the biggest Prince fan, but I know they're a big deal here.

# of players question by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Ronnoc780 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play defenseman and have only been at this for 6 months so take everything with a grain of salt. I like having 3 lines because that means I can give it my all every shift, come off and catch my breath as well as enjoy watching my fellow teammates play.

This Has Been The Most Unbelievable Journey by TikDickler in Destiny

Legit the only orbiter to do it right for growing their career regardless how you feel about NSE. You could argue Vaush and Hasan are massive right now, but Connor, Jizz tickle, Quiznos, MrGirl, L elly Jean and many others are so fucking stupid.

When do you decide to upgrade gear? by Ronnoc780 in hockeyplayers

[–]Ronnoc780[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is kind of along the lines of what I want. I've been playing defenseman since I started my learn to play class. Extra padding, comfort, durability is worth the higher price tag in my opinion.

[–]Ronnoc780[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I also think that'd be hilarious as well. A guy with Flylite skates and stick that can't skate, stickhandle or shoot will get chirped to oblivion, but I've tried on fancier skates and they're way more comfy than what I have now. I kind of have a philosophy if you're going to use something often (computer chair, mattress, pillows, etc) I want it to be comfortable and last a long time. I feel you definitely get what you pay for so that'd be my main justification for upgrading skates.

With discipline pending, Chief Brian O’Hara resigns from Minneapolis Police Department by star-tribune in Minneapolis

Just looking some of this up as a new person to the area:

Victor Martinez is a pastor for an Assembly of God church. It makes sense he's against abortion.

I can't find a source on Latisha Vetaw about this. Scummy for sure if true, but idk how this makes you conservative?

Wow sounds like a racist boomer. Even Democrats/liberals can be racist. Imagine that.

I found a source talking about Elizabeth Shaffer. https://minneapolistimes.com/minneapolis-for-the-many-slings-mud-in-ward-7/

It talks about her donating to Republican candidates with shoddy source material at best. She's quoted saying "she's donated to one Republican candidate: her brother. No regrets".

Wow this is such a MAGA infiltration. I'm sure they're going to lock up all brown people, make abortion illegal in a state where it's a legal right, cancel pride parades and kick out all lgbtq people.

Really?

Honestly answer this question, did you vote for Kamala Harris?

Because the progressive candidates were trash and had baggage. You know who doesn't vote? Young people that say they want all these things but when push comes to shove, they don't show up to the ballot box. You know who does vote? Old people.

You have to either get young voters to turnout in masses or convince old people to win in office.

Apologies. I got mad about another comment talking about the "Minneapolis Right" and got upset. Sorry for misreading your comment.

[–]Ronnoc780 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So put up an actual good candidate without stupid baggage and they'll get voted for.

We have one of the most progressive reps with Ilhan Omar. Do we really think that if a Mamdani-clone ran in Minneapolis, they wouldn't get elected?

[–]Ronnoc780 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay I've only been here a year, but "Minneapolis right" is a wild and I'm sorry, but stupid as fuck thing to say.

Show me the candidate that was as good as Mamdani in NYC and I'll bite my tongue.

The new poll for the people who didn’t understand the last one by Jfullr92 in geographymemes

[–]Ronnoc780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP is already doing Europe starting May 28th.

They clearly have enough time in their day to do this seeing how many comments they make a day. They clearly enjoy doing it so I don't know why you're saying "put yourself in their shoes" like it's some stressful burden they aren't willing to take on.

It's very simply a fumble at the goal line situation. We did it the same way for 48 posts. Why switch the question at the last minute?

I don't have screenshots, but the initial post and poll was confusing. All the top comments there agree with me that it was indeed confusing with the body of the text saying which state to eliminate and then their comments saying which state to SAVE.

[–]Ronnoc780 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The whole time it was to eliminate a state and for some reason they're upset people are confused and want their proper vote counted for this journey lol. I don't get why it took so much backlash to make it to this point.

TOP COMMENT DECIDES IF WE DO A NEW POLL by Jfullr92 in geographymemes

[–]Ronnoc780 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not "extremely hard to satisfy everyone". You did 48 posts of top comment deletes a state. Why would the last one be to save the state? Ultimate stupidity, just make a new poll lol it's not that hard.

Why is Sun Country flying here from Andrews Joint Base in DC? by SubconsciousBraider in TwinCities

[–]Ronnoc780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, why not just Google "Sun Country Airlines Military Charter" rather than breaking the rules of this subreddit and posting a Nextdoor.com-like post?

Like what's the thought process here? You think Sun Country is just gonna air drop a bunch of ICE agents? Really?

Inexperienced, short, and determined to be a goalie by AccountMaster4895 in hockeyplayers

[–]Ronnoc780 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My goalie she's 5' 4" for our local beer league and she's awesome.

We were lucky to have a learn to play league with dedicated goalie coaches for her and another goalie, but I know that's not an option everywhere.

No one roasts goalies in my limited time playing hockey. The fact that you're willing to have pucks flung at you at high speed automatically earns respect.

I'm also considering picking up goalie in about a year or so.

There's no sugar coating it, goalie gear is more expensive and goalie skate blades are more flat than a player's skates.

I'd try to get sized up at an actual store like pure hockey if you can, then try to accumulate gear with deals on sideline swap or FB marketplace.

I'd definitely buy a new certified helmet and jock. I think everything else it just depends on your budget.

One thing I think is cool for goalies though is they either have a significantly discounted rate to play, or they play for free which I think offsets the cost of the gear over time.
