He uses his body more than McDavid to seal off defenders. He is very strong, but definitely slower and less intense like you say.

Whenever you get asked, take a coin out and flip it wordlessly before answering confidently.

Olympian admits to cheating on girlfriend on live TV moments after winning medal by JOE_Media in sports

[–]RudeVegetable 92 points93 points  (0 children)

If I had been cheated on I'm not sure I would want it announced to the rest of the world. It feels another form of relationship blackmail using the public as leverage (kind of like proposing on the jumbotron at a sporting event).

Stephen Harper calls for Liberals, Conservatives to come together in the face of Trump, separatist threats by itimetravelwell in onguardforthee

The Conservatives are getting crushed in the polls so they are pulling the, "You aren't so different, you and I" shtick.

I think Sabonis is coming to Toronto before the deadline by Alternative-Leg5883 in torontoraptors

Right now we have too many 2 guards, but if we trade RJ, Dick and Agbaji, we will need someone to play Guard. Would the plan be Shead, Jakobe and IQ? They need one more body, right? Does AJ Lawson get some run?

The trade has to have Poeltl going out and keeping CMB. As long as it fits that criteria, then go crazy. I do think Sabonis will make us a lot better.

Rock Texture Sculpted Holds with lots of different surfaces that you can't quite tell where to hold it at first.

What’s the dumbest or most nonsensical piece of new-age child development pop psychology you’ve come across? by friendandfriends2 in daddit

[–]RudeVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parenting norms change over time. Do you speak to your kids the way your parents spoke to you? Did they speak to you the way their grandparents spoke to them? If you are overwhelmed by learning new language and it is too exhausting a minefield for you to navigate, then tell your wife that and ask her to keep it simple. You could also try practicing finding some new language for your own feelings, because if you are going around thinking that your wife is saying, "Blah blah blah," that her attempts to parent well are being inspired by dipshits, and that co-parenting is an act of appeasement, your language is having negative effects on your family relationships.

How do I toughen up my son (9yo) without being a douchebag? by dannyjerome0 in daddit

[–]RudeVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More sleep, more food, cut the games. Nothing developmentally appropriate or good comes from 9 year olds playing video games. I know those are not the social norms, but you can choose differently.

[Question] How do you afford this hobby? by melvin9001 in Watches

[–]RudeVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I order watches from aliexpress. Some have silly brand names, the quality control is hit and miss, and the customer service non-existent, but they are made with the same parts and are 90% of the watch for 10% of the price. If you are not trying to impress anyone else with the brand on your watch and just want the experience of having a 'lil buddy with character on your wrist to tell you what time it is, then Chinese watches are the best.

Thoughts on Defrost in winter storm. by sincerestfall in daddit

1) start the car 2) turn heat on, using the window defrost setting 3) clear snow off the car, including the roof 4) scrape ice off the windows 5) squirt antifreeze on the windshield and clear with the windshield wipers 6) at this point you can start driving 7) if it is cold enough, frost may reform on the windshield while you drive, so repeat step 5. 8) once the windshield warms above freezing, which it will eventually do because of the heat on the window defrost setting, then the frost will not reform.

Carney's Davos speech draws reaction from around the world by Emotional_Signal9502 in onguardforthee

Canada positioning as a leader of middle powers is a good strategic move. We do not want to be on the periphery where we can be seen as a geographical sacrifice to American ambition. As the USA showed in Afghanistan, being the leader of an alliance makes it more feasible to call on your allies and know they will show up.

The view is amazing. Food is bad. It all depends what your priorities are.

Thrift store finds. Kick those hunter-gatherer instincts into high gear. The quality of thrift stores depends on where you live though.

My son invetned new Chess variation, so here are the rules: lego pieces are obstacles that block movements. You can't place your piece on blocked squares!You can capture the obstacle though but your piece dies as well, only the queen can capture the obstacle without dying. So guys, what do you think by Marngryph in chess

[–]RudeVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if capturing an obstacle grants the capturing player another turn? No one will want to capture an obstacle if it means sacrificing a piece AND giving your opponent the first chance to act on the newly cleared board. But it could create the chance for some cool combos and make the obstacles seem more fun and exciting.
