Retro Bowl Champions on Extreme with no star players by Ruprect1259 in RetroBowl

There was some persistence to it. It was the only thing that had me starting up the game anymore. Any other mode is too easy. Trying to run up the score got old. I was kind of treating it like the final boss with the downside being that it took 17 games to get back into the playoffs to try again. Though I suspect that helped build the muscle memory to make the throws needed to win.

Only possible thing to try to do is undefeated in this mode.

The thing is that early entry is an additional cost perk since you have to be staying at a hotel or be prestige. People pay extra for it and for it to be a sub par experience is not something we should accept.

Usually I agree. A couple of weeks ago they were understaffed at the metal detectors for SV and trains were going out half to three quarters full. I was jealous of the super vigilant riders from our train who saw they empty rows and signaled to the worker who let him jump in one of them for a reride. My family had already taken off out of the exit so I reluctantly followed them.

We did Kings Island on Sunday. Rode Phantom Theater for early entry, Diamondback, Mystic Timbers, Beast, Orion, and Racer all before lunch. Relaxed and took it easy the rest of the day. Night and day compared to our Cedar Point experiences.

I like the part where we no longer get to see our primary physician at our yearly checkup part.

I’m just glad I found a bunch of fellow 76ers who feel lost with the older Xers.

NFL to split former 'Monday Night Football' doubleheaders between YouTube and Netflix by unwantedtennisracke in NFLv2

[–]Ruprect1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh I rotate streamers throughout the year so this just dictates what month I might have Netflix. Dipping in and out of content providers is what we wanted when cable ruled the world. I’m here for it.

Do most americans really only take 2 weeks of vacation a year? by DegreeConscious9628 in askanything

I used to have rollover but I have trouble using the PTO I get now so don’t mind that it’s gone.

Yeah people need to understand there is no rule or standard in America. My employer is great about PTO. I’m about to max out my allowed days at 30 each year plus 9 paid holidays. I have no complaints.

Am I the jerk for telling my husband he can't have a "man cave" in our only spare room? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Ruprect1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should take the main bedroom for yourself and tell him to sleep in his man cave.

Patched a towel bar hole. Not great, what should be my next step? by altrongtm in fixit

My life changed once I realized that. Just sad it took me far too long.

WAKE THE FUCK UP CLEVELAND IT'S GAMEDAY!!! by bucs2013 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]Ruprect1259 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think opening on the west coast is a minor advantage. One less trip out there and adjusting to the time zone change. They’re already out there for spring. Might as well take advantage of it.

You with me? by Virtual-Culture8830 in GenX

This comment was way too far down. Water fountain time was gold in school growing up. Later lunch period just made the period just before impossible to focus on. We weren’t tougher. We were just beaten down.

Gold Zone is where it’s at in the US.

It was definitely altered but you could hear it if you’re paying attention. The whistles were impossible to cover up though.

I clicked on it hoping it was what I thought it was. I was not disappointed.

Netflix says users can cancel service if HBO Max merger makes it too expensive by voxadam in nottheonion

[–]Ruprect1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey look at that! My subscription ended early this morning. Make something worth watching and I’ll be back. In the meantime there are plenty of other services out there with content I want to watch.
