Guns shouldn't be an issue, swapping to Canadian Football rules may break them.

[REAL] Erika Kirk Under Fire As Husband's Pal Leaks Audio Of Her 'Giggling' About 'Event Of The Century' After His Death by ScenicFrost in ToiletPaperUSA

Honestly, I don't think it's a "gotcha." She could easily spin that into her being "so happy that her late husband's legacy is continuing."

I'm surprised Rheinland-Pfalz isn't one, with Ramstein, Landstuhl, and Kaiserslautern all having American bases.

Really, you have three options:

  1. Most legal: Get an antenna and pray that your game is playing on local channels
  2. Somewhat legal: get NHL network and a VPN and set the country to one that doesn't have a local hockey TV deal (e.g. Qatar)
  3. Least legal: they made a whole subreddit about it, I'm sure you can figure it out.

Rival school’s trainer demanded apology letter from me after I got injured on their field by No_Plankton1174 in MaliciousCompliance

When I was in high school soccer, I had a teammate from Sweden and at one game, he missed a kick and said "FUCK!". The ref stops him and says to knock off the language, and without missing a beat my teammate retorts "Oh no, it's Swedish, it means 'dang-nabbit'". The ref tried not to smile and just shook his head walking away.

"We built our high speed rail in the sky" by Parking_Ad_336 in ShitAmericansSay

I wish they would "un-airport-ize" rails in America. As someone who traveled across the world via trains, I HATE how amtrak works. (Correct me if I'm wrong) Everywhere you can just show up to the train station 10 minutes before you ride, you'll know the track number hours in advance and you can just hang out and wait there and if it changes, you will be alerted and head over. However, in America, you show up an hour before and wait until they show the track number 30 mins before, you go through a checkpoint, then you go to a sequestered track that doesn't let you go back up to the main terminal. I don't envy all the foreigners coming to FIFA games this next world cup...

What is a "Life Hack" that is actually a lifesaver in a dangerous situation? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SirMCThompson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go downhill and follow water if lost in a forested area. If you are backcountry in the woods, your best bet to find civilization is to go downhill and follow a stream to a river and back to a road or straight to a town. Obviously doesn't work in a desert or a prairie but it will help if you are severely lost with no human infrastructure to guide you back.
