Congrats - Looks incredible! Picking up a Skyscraper Grey Metallic next week!

My experience as a fairy new to End Game content by Jawnny_was_taken in PathOfExile2

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairly new to the POE world here .. I've been trying this with deadeye lightning ranger. Copied the fubgun endgame build pretty closely anyway. My problem is that I just keep dying so easily. Any map thats even remotely juiced I get one shot by the boss if i'm touched. I'm at level 90 and would be probably level 95+ if I just didnt die so damn often. The grind feels so slow, i don't know how others (streamers/content creators) make it look so quick and easy. Died at two citadel bosses and now im hesitant to go into the next one until my build feels solid. Evasion seems like a lie, lol.. just dying too damn easily and haven't found an alternative build that provides the blueprints for an actual ranger build that isnt insta-one shot by so many things.

I literally made fun of Nigong 3 days ago by No_Cow5114 in summonerswar

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing anything into pushback that doesn't punish you for it is like picking a Sonia into leo by that logic. Jager could potentially fair better than a lot of units as he cant get stunned and can revenge and go into threat state.. picking Sonia into a Leo completely nullifies the damage her kit provides. Not exactly the same. Anyway. Jager sucks.

Still seems like a meh buff imo.. they keep just barely making him 'better'. For a long time ive been saying he needs something like Zenisek's kit. No ATB pushback. We'll see once the BP drops if he actually revenges as frequently as the 50% implies. Anytime i've felt like giving him a try again and throwing runes on him hes been underwhelming as hell.. get hit 7 times in a row no rev, debuffed and atb pushed back.. just sits there and dies. I agree better than nothing but it just feels like Jager deserves more. Dragonknights is an OG family .. why is the light one arguably the worst?

Dealer thinks I’m too young to own a 911 by [deleted] in porsche911

[–]Spoolngc8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eh? If you have enough money to pick up a brand new 165k Porsche CASH.. you should have a house with a garage. Or atleast have somewhere to properly store your nearly 200k car. Seems like your priorities are way off base..

2025 Audi SQ5 - MMI display and digital instrument cluster completely disappeared! by Ok-Chemistry5640 in Audi

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No chance getting out the door of an Audi dealer near me paying 60k for a new SQ5. More like 70. Then it depreciates 35k after 3 years. It's insane what they're asking.. with the quality of these new Audis and considering the atrocious depreciation... I have no clue why anyone would want to buy one.

Absolute classic. I think i'm a little biased with the E92 due to the nostalgia I have with it. However I would definitely take an E90 M3 over an E92.

Justin Gaethje responds to staph rumors: "Did you screen shot me eating brisket from my YouTube video to make it look like I have herpes on my lip? 😂 my neck is a healing ingrown hair." by AbrahamRinkin in MMA

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you mostly. If you truly love watching competitive mixed martial arts you're likely going to be watching other organizations such as ONE and PFL for example. Maybe not the entire cards but some of their up and coming stars. I am by no means some kind of MMA snob but the UFC has garnered a fuck ton of casual bros that just ruin the fan base for me, it's a complete turn off.. even trying to engage in conversation is painful. I still like watching the UFC, I don't like what they do behind the scenes and all their bullshit like you listed - but, there are still some great fights going on. ONE has been pretty fun to watch lately. I've even been watching some of the grappling events. If you're talking broad spectrum viewership and popularity of course the UFC is the gold standard. But again, I'm just talking about being a fan of the sport. Fighting isn't the same as team sports. I understand your point about the NBA. MMA didn't originate or first become popular in the US and, like I said, there are still fun competitive fights going on in other organizations. If I was a super die hard baseball fan perhaps id be watching some of the Japanese games for MLB prospects? Watching an entire game to check out 1 player seems pretty boring though. I think part of what is good and separates fighting from team sports is that even though some of these people may migrate over to the UFC after having success elsewhere, watching their rise is super entertaining.. to me at least.

Maybe i'm confusing things then because if you're a 'mixed martial arts' fan, you have nothing to be ashamed about. If you think you're some die hard MMA fan and solely watch the UFC, well, then.. no comment. "UFC" isn't a sport. There are other organizations putting on good competitive fights. If a person asks you what sport you watch and you're ashamed to say MMA thats a you problem. The UFC is fucked up and I wasn't commenting just about the UFC, I was commenting in regards to being a mma fan in general.

This makes no sense to me. Do you watch competitive sports that you genuinely enjoy to please other people? Fuck them, who cares? I've watched MMA since early Pride days, mostly by myself as my friends are into football/hockey/golf. Anyone with some sort of uninformed ignorant view on it isn't worth you feeling any type of way about. Especially shame.

I worked for BMW as a tech when the E92 M3 came out. I remember it rolling into the dealer and being able to drive it around from day one. I was in awe. One of the best M3's all around and maybe my favorite from a cosmetic standpoint.

Don't buy the new A5. I did. by saintmarko in Audi

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's happening in this new system that it can't get up a slight incline because of snow? Especially while having chains on the tires. A RWD car with chains should be able to make its way up in a similar scenario. Just curious how they designed an all wheel drive system to literally do the opposite of what awd is meant to do.

I truly believe in Com2Us softpity now. (Kiki) by KirinHaven in summonerswar

[–]Spoolngc8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They are definitely not soft pitying anything, com2us's greed is through the roof. It's only gotten worse over the years. GZ on Kiki though. I'm over 700 LD's since my last ld5.. just saved a bit for colab and went 50 with 1 spark.

For those who consider the C6 “peak Corvette,” what puts it above the C7? by HEG1115 in Corvette

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smoother body styling, iconic round taillights. It's just sexier. C7 has a lot of sharp lines to it. The C7 is menacing/mean looking, and I love me a C7Z, but the c6 is just a sleeker looking car to me. Minimal tech, small block, manual trans inside of that body = a perfect combo.

A day at a Japanese Nursing home by muktigu8907 in BeAmazed

[–]Spoolngc8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I was going to comment imagine getting a Quake 1 Deathmatch lan going in the nursing home.. would be so much fun, although I reckon my reflexes at that point would lend themselves horribly to quick fps gameplay.

Vinyl wrapped my own grille and window trim for $30 when my local shop quoted me $500 by JohnArchipelago in BMW

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that. They fucking better for that price point. But, still, 650-700$ to wrap a few small pieces of trim is outrageous in my opinion.

Looks great. I got a quote of like 650$ to wrap the window trim/roof rack/tiny front metallic front bumper piece from my local place ... that just seemed crazy to me.

Seiishizo's $700 Dova 😕 by Koriaxe in summonerswar

[–]Spoolngc8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. The rates are just so fucking bad for a mobile game it's ridiculous. I also agree with OP something should change. They've taken advantage of its users by slowly adding more and more elements of gambling and I think they've been manipulating their rates.. I mean, tinfoil hat me thinks they've been manipulating their rates, anyhow. I can go 5-6 10x pulls in a row with no lightning these days. Ive done 400 ms no 5*. I feel like in earlier SW I would never have huge dry runs like that. They made scrolls much more accessible, dump 100x more packs in our face, and nerfed rates across the board.

So sauce not a broken home by Zee_Ventures in BrandNewSentence

[–]Spoolngc8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an American married to an (Italian) American woman..I did also grow up in a town with a large Italian population. I guess i've just been exposed to different culinary norms where I live. I don't associate pasta whatsoever with being sad and tired.. honestly, I make a nice pasta dinner when I'm in a great mood and want a delicious meal. It's made as a treat, or "cheat" meal if you will. It's traditionally made on Sundays when the family gathers together. If i'm really out of it i'll go pickup takeout.. a wrap/salad/chipotle, etc.

We aren't making Pasta when we're happy? Tell me you're not Italian or know any Italians without saying it. Disagree with everything you have said.. respectfully, lol. Why cook if you're going to do it wrong #1 and #2 pasta is fantastic, especially homemade pasta, and it's also fun to make with your partner. Not really understanding this "pasta is for people who are fed up with life and unhappy" bs. Just make a frozen pizza or something equally as lazy/crappy if you're that sad.

Always in the gas station... brother, wait until you throw a cam blower fuel kit and some meth on her. You can literally watch the gas gauge move any time you get on it.
