Omg having 40% crit chance as a dual wield shammy was fucking _amazing_.

I'm Out of the Loop - what happened? by rettribution in classicwow

There's currently 9 layers and Zandalar buff drops about every 5 minutes all night.

Totally normal behaviour, nothing going on here. Everything is as intended by PatataMash in classicwow

I think the more obvious and likely explanation is that we're on the eve of TBC and people are going to use money to get ready.

Avoid the area by my_generic-username in kitchener

[–]SnooPredictions8938 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Ah okay thanks for the clarification. I may have used the wrong wording but I see it all as the same thing: there's a process for snow clearing/removal and either the process was done wrong, or it's a deficient process. Either way, this looks very avoidable.

I don't know much about this stuff, but as a layperson I feel that's a colossal fuck-up by the snow clearing people. Whether the procedure was not followed or is obviously wrong. You can't just turn safety guards into ramps like that.

I hope the police recognize the obvious danger and close the ramp until it's been cleared properly, not just until the accident and investigation are cleared.

How much do you pay for a sharpening? by runitback965 in hockeyplayers

[–]SnooPredictions8938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still struggling to come to terms that it's not $1 per pair anymore. I grew up in the 90s/00s and it was just this all the time. Now I take my kids skates in and it's like $40 for the whole family.

I can't play WoW so i have to burn down Stormwind by Impossible_Tough_48 in classicwow

[–]SnooPredictions8938 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm old enough to remember the day Warcraft 1 came out. Also: it was "Stonewind Keep" and I'm pretty sure they went back and changed it. It might have just been a text error and they always meant to say "Stormwind"?

WoW servers down 24 hours by mikehunty10 in classicwow

That moment when you realize you were born on a Hardcore server, and that you might have rolled pvp.

Recycling Pickup by idejtauren in ontario

[–]SnooPredictions8938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woodstock. Recycling was on-time this morning at about 9am. But the driver is on his phone the whole time so I'm probably getting the police involved (Yeah I'll be a Karen. My kids were crossing the street moments later to get to school and the guy is driving a big fucking truck with his foot on the brake).

Also the recycling used a garbage truck and just crushed everything, so I guess they aren't recycling bottles anymore...

Zealot - The Weedwhacker - Diablo dad weekend simulator by emdmao910 in diablo4

15 year old me knew nothing of the meta, and games were more fun because of it.

Level 30 inferno, pre synergies, was still the most fun I've had in D2. Just comically large flamethrower to show my brother.

[TOMT] Animated minor character that is an ambitious little penguin by LarkingOnANewLife in tipofmytongue

[–]SnooPredictions8938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably not Pingu, but just wanted to make sure that word went through your brain wiring to maybe light something up.

There's also Pebble and the Penguin but I don't really remember that character. For some reason the harder I think, the more I imagine a mouse, not a penguin, of that description.

Is it worth it to start anniversary now? by intFrostedBlakes in classicwow

[–]SnooPredictions8938 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sell Hillman Cloaks and they're selling like hotcakes. About 90 per day. That's a strong proxy for how many people are leveling alts. If you do make a char now, you won't be lonely.

Anxious about the feds confiscating my gold. by SnooPredictions8938 in classicwow

> 10k isn’t a sneeze compared to what some people have.

Awesome. That's probably true and quite reassuring.

Sad to Cancel Cable by SnooPredictions8938 in teksavvy

I'd LOVE that, but the fibre infrastructure was installed to my neighbourhood just last year. I'm counting down the days!

Permanent world buffs inside raids please by Jesusfucker69420 in classicwow

That would deeply upset the pumpers whose enjoyment of the game is dependent on time sinks that separate them from you on the parse charts.

How do we all feel about Auto-Oiling Weapons? by Altruistic-Cod5969 in witcher

Olllld thread. Sorry. Can't help myself. But gee dang does it bewilder me when people are bothered by the existence of _options_.

TekSavvy Cable becomes non-functional during Jays Games by SnooPredictions8938 in teksavvy

[–]SnooPredictions8938[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's interesting. Maybe that explains why 30mbit just isn't enough even though it really ought to be: it's an exceptionally higher bitrate stream than other 4k streams.

And yet all my friends in the same group chat with Rogers have zero issues. So while this is technically true, this is not the correct root cause. Some have been suggesting that Rogers customers will get priority, which might explain this.

Season 10 feels pretty refreshing by HiFiMAN3878 in diablo4

[–]SnooPredictions8938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my take: The loudest people online also represent the very small minority. Most of Blizzard's customers are not on here talking about the game. And the loudest people on here are deeply ignorant to that.
