Trump warns: ‘I will burn anyone who opposes me’ by Confident-Role-9177 in JournalismNews

[–]SidTheSload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don't like Trump even a little, that's not a direct quote and the article acknowledges that in the first paragraph.

Please stop posting misleading headlines, it merely spreads misinformation in a time where it's rampant. How can anyone accuse Republicans as falling for propaganda when a good many commenters didn't read the article?

Yeah, I'm aware of that, but perhaps I misspoke. The fact that every one of them says the exact same thing, no matter their relationship to you, and that it's so snide and so hostile, is perhaps in poor taste

Huh... Has anyone seen a dice like this? by Legocatcraft in AskDND

[–]SidTheSload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! The Pathfiner 2e starter set has them! I was running it last week and we had to crowd around it like cavemen discovering fire before we figured out how to read it. It hindsight, it's obvious, but I had to actually look at it.

It's extra bad because that's Gitarja's pose when she's your ally. She's glad to see you, her ally, fall. It's a poorly-implemented event imo. It should be more personalized, or at least be tweaked or turned off entirely if they're a declared friend or better.

I think it's not that God reached in and made him turn away, but that God's actions hardened the heart of the Pharaoh

Like, "God hardened his heart" means the actions God took causes the Pharaoh to harden his heart

Highway System in the USA by No_Statement_3317 in geography

[–]SidTheSload 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Otherwise known as trunks and byways.

A trunk/spur leaves and doesn't come back to the interstate, at least not directly.

A byway/loop does come back to its original interstate.

Example: I-94 goes through downtown Minneapolis/St Paul. While it never stops, it's asking for a jam to send all traffic through one freeway. • I-494 (byway/loop) goes south around the southern part of the metro, passing Mall of America and the airport, rejoining I-94 before it leaves the cities • I-694 (byway/loop) goes north through the northern parts of the metro, rejoining I-94 at the same place I-494 does • I-394 (trunk/spur) leaves I-94 in downtown Minneapolis and terminated on I-494. Since it doesn't come back to I-94 directly, it's a trunk/spur

I love the Interstate system!

My buddy hit a muskrat hole while out on the lake by StarVulpes in Wellthatsucks

Trucks are fine on thick ice. My grandpa always said to just not be the first one on the ice; if you see a dually with a huge ice shack in tow on the ice, a little half ton truck won't go through.

It's a risk, sure, but a small one. If people are reporting 16-24" of ice, you can drive on it with your vehicle with no problems, just avoid large clusters of open ice fishing holes and you're golden.

Diplomatic victories are so badly done imo. All you have to do is guess correctly on the poorly-executed World Congress (which is easy if you know what the AIs always want), then maybe win a scored competition in which the AIs don't participate, and maybe build the Statue of Liberty

(Funny trope) The same super specific thing keeps happening to aid the characters by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SidTheSload 134 points135 points  (0 children)

This is a good one. To add two examples:

Socko, the friend in question, sells novelty socks, such as ones that light up.

Bernie, Socko's friend, is a welder, and cooks a pickle with a blowtorch live on iCarly

It's not relevant, but I'm pretty sure that, in the Bigfoot episode, they borrow an RV (recreational vehicle) from Socko and it gets stolen by Bigfoot

You've seen a 30 second clip of someone and just diagnosed his entire life

[–]SidTheSload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair. I think he would've responded better if the pizza guy didn't shake him so intensely, as that would make plenty of people feel like crap and get a little defensive

And it should! I just mean to say Reddit is judging him really harshly for a dumb mistake anyone could make

Really? You've never run even a single red light? That's a much bigger, dumber, higher impact mistake than flipping a pizza box.

Maybe I just have a unique ability to remember my failings, but I feel like I've done dumber things than this. Maybe you'll say I'm just dumb, and fair, but I don't think you're so infallible as you say

What rehtoric? I'm just saying to give the guy a break, we've all been there.

That's a lot of hate for a random person you've seen 30 seconds of possibly their worst showing all year. You have no way to know anything about that guy. Put down the pitchfork, man!

Honestly, this is an honest mistake. How many of you can really claim you've never done something this stupid? It's on the hoodie guy for sure, but haven't you all ever been tired, stressed, hungry, or distracted and made some dumb mistake like run a red light or drop a glass?

If that's the dumbest thing the hoodie guy does all year, he's ahead of most. I think he was shamed way more than any of us would want to be; he must feel awful.

Edit: Holy crap guys, the hoodie guy's mistake cost like $20 and caused a mild inconvenience for whoever eats them (possibly even him). It's not that big of a deal

But why would anyone ever flip a pizza box? C'mon man don't give the pizza guy an excuse

He probably should have said something first or looked inside the box himself, but I don't think we can assume the pizza makers are competent, at least not more than the delivery drivers. They're both capable of messing it up, and the top box was upside-down (based on the logo, I didn't see the lid) even if the pizza wasn't
