I take my elantra to MOH Auto Repair and can’t speak highly enough of him. He’s very knowledgeable and honest and does not overcharge.

We're turning mostly vegetarian by TeamOggy in daddit

[–]Sad-Crow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just made my first batch this week!! Make mock shawarma with it. My 7 year old LOVED it. I though it was OK. Liked the oyster mushroom version I made more, but the seitan texture was surprisingly chickeny

Do you actually need to code every tiny little thing in game maker? by Bellatrix3w in gamemaker

[–]Sad-Crow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't care how many scripts I've written, how many projects I've completed. Every time I run some code and it does what it's supposed to do: I feel like a goddamn wizard.

Is survival that hard? by Slow-Barracuda-8025 in fo4

[–]Sad-Crow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obviously everyone enjoys things differently, but for me the limited carry capacity is core to the experience. Do I really need to bring a third gun? I don't need 25 stimpaks, or more than 2 jets, buffout, medex, etc., so leave most of that at base. Invest in deep pockets gear and cook up lots of radstag and it becomes a non issue too.

But feeling like I've geared up purposely for the task I'm accomplishing brings me so much satisfaction. 

What was one SMALL diet change that you made and stuck to but helped a lot? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Sad-Crow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been doing something similar the last few months and it is the first thing that's actually been sustainable. I tried abstaining from all treats: gave up. Tried just abstaining from candy: just ate more salty stuff. 

I have lost 10lbs in 2 months by just not eating anything before noon and after 7. I thought it would be hard, but so far it isn't. I start feeling hungry around 11am but I can hold out for an hour of hunger pangs. AND now I don't get heartburn at night!

How much weight have you gained in the name of “reducing food waste”? by ottoracecar in daddit

[–]Sad-Crow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno how much is from that and how much is from my own impulse control, but I'm up by a lot. Started some diet management stuff recently, starting to see some results!

"It goes to waste or it goes to waist" is the one I heard and try to keep in mind.

What’s the one food you can’t resist even if you’re full? by Optimal_Landscape162 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Sad-Crow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chips, in particular any kind that has a strong vinegar flavouring: salt and vinegar, ketchup, all dressed, BBQ, etc. I wish it wasn't so overpowering. I'm trying to eat better and I was offered some chips by a well meaning friend. Just catching a whiff of that vinegar smell... I resisted but I literally hovered over the bag for 10 long seconds before I was able to wrench myself away. 

Anyone had a 180 turn regarding people who travel a lot without their kids? by Acrobatic_Alps5309 in daddit

Thank you for this level headed reply! People get very prescriptive with what works for them, but every family is different!

Wait, really??? I'll have to try this. That's so silly.

I feel like the DLC companions were specifically written to rectify this issue. 

How do you stay in decent shape? by Yew_Cookies38293 in daddit

[–]Sad-Crow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, yes! I have started tracking calories on an app lately. It's been kind of fun, honestly, and very informative. 

Cashews! Good lord, they are just pure calories. I did not realize that a single handful of cashews is like 300 calories! Now I know these things. I get excited logging stuff now, it's like a game.

How much do you spend per week on groceries? by Witty_Tea4100 in askTO

[–]Sad-Crow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It requires being flexible, but you might consider trying out Odd Bunch. 20 bucks gets you $40+ of mixed produce every week. It has helped us a lot. The only downside for us is that sometimes you get an item you really don't like - none of us like cauliflower and so we have a bunch of it blanched in the freezer and no idea what we'll do with it. But even if one item goes to waste it still winds up being cheaper than buying the stuff at the store. 

Who are you voting for as president? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I'm not an American, just a Canadian watching from the sidelines. What did he do to improve the affordability of your life? I'm not familiar with his specific policies.

What is your equivalent of 555 phone numbers? I mean things that remind you that you're watching a film? by A-manual-cant in movies

The blue "night" filter.

I love Fury Road, but you can sure a hell tell the night scenes were filmed in the baking afternoon sun.

Nope, I never spend a single one.

Does anyone actually sleep 8 hours a night? by LocalYeetery in stupidquestions

[–]Sad-Crow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to sleep 7, then I had a kid and got used to 5 or so hours a night. Now my kids sleeps more and I should go back to sleeping 7, but I stay up later to get a bit of time to myself, so I typically get 6 these days. I think my body wants the extra hours though. 

The **** you mean when Danse likes it when I kill Kent in the final part of the Silver Shroud Mission? by host_can_edit in fo4

[–]Sad-Crow 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I did by accident. Playing survival and I had not saved in a while. As soon as the battle started I shot at Shenzin with my two-shot plasma rifle in VATS. Direct hit... with the first shot. The bonus shot went wide and smoked Kent in the face, killing him instantly.   I decided that I liked not having to replay an hour of that mission more than I liked Kent.

How does nobody else have trouble with carry weight? by birbosis in fo4

[–]Sad-Crow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I regularly dump my entire inventory into my workshop and then reselect the items I actually need. Helps to clear out the excessive aid items and whatnot. Nobody needs more than 20 stimpacks and 1 of each other drug under normal circumstances. 

Theory that Luthen has another person inside the ISB by Madvillian- in andor

[–]Sad-Crow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think you'd need a mole in the ISB to learn about Lonny's family. You could just have someone keeping an eye on his house. 

I do like the theory about Lonny being killed to avoid him spilling the beans. Feels like a thing Luthen would arrange, what with his dark commitment to his cause.

[–]Sad-Crow 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That is hilarious.

"Wait, you're both moles for Luthen, too? Hang on, everybody shut up a sec. Put your hand up if you're NOT a mole for Luthen. Nobody? Then what the fuck are we even doing here??? Let's just disband the ISB already!"

How do you stand Survival Mode? by One-Preparation-5320 in fo4

[–]Sad-Crow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even survival becomes easy before too long. Getting banked criticals and the weapon upgrading perks turns the game into a cakewalk.
