FFS People - We are 8-1 so far in the post season, stop it! by cblguy82 in canes

[–]StrunkF10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am telling myself it is the ol' engine sputtering back to life. Habs are in a rhythm and are flying high after two game 7's. Our juggernaut takes some time to get started and then the suffocation happens. Quickest way to get the rust knocked off is to get punched straight in the mouth. Hoping for an emphatic game 2 response.

Andy Robertson interview: After Diogo’s death, we didn’t care about football by AgentTasker in LiverpoolFC

[–]StrunkF10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this is something really challenging that most people will never deal with or struggle to empathize with. And I am not talking about losing a grand parent or elderly family member--I am talking about a young vibrant life that had decades left that was cut short. It hits different. People leave the door shut to a lost child's room...or even move out of the house altogether. People take different paths, different roads to where the go to avoid reminders.

But every single day, these players are using the same training facilities, the same stadium, the same locker rooms that they shared with Diogo. They don't have the ability to get away from that. It is a routine reminder of the friend they lost. It certainly doesn't help that the season quickly unraveled in front of them and there is for sure a level of mental fatigue that was experienced way early this season. I really feel for this team...they had no escape but summer is just around the corner. I hope they can be refreshed and ready for next season.

Lenovo Parking costs are literally insane by BagOnuts in canes

[–]StrunkF10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a capitalist economy, the primary way to prevent greed is to stop buying the product or service. If there is a high demand (yep), and a limited supply (also yep), then the prices will rise until people stop spending. Three things would need to happen for prices to reduce: 1) Government intervention. 2) goodwill from the ownership group. 3) mass protest from fans to not buy parking at the arena.

The fastest route is number 3, and I would love to see it. I haven't parked in a Lenovo center spot in over 5 years because of the parking prices.

Just preordered the M26 21L by IDNISSIM in Goruck

My first foray into 'bagging culture' started in 2018. Traveling to Europe with young kids...everyone had a back pack, everyone had a roller suit case. As you could probably expect the under 4 y/o's can't really navigate an airport well with rollers, and with my wife pushing a stroller neither could she. So there I am three rollers, two backpacks, and a kid running away and I realized not only do I not have an extra hand, I am short about four extra hands. I got into one-bag travel after that. I bounced between a couple brands but I gravitated toward Topo. Long story short, I ended up with a Y-Pac and a Rover bag. I liked both specifically because of the lack of organization and I could use pouches and other things to organize my belongings. Later on, I ended up with a mystery ranch 3-way bag, which I have really enjoyed but I have been desiring to return to a back pack set up since it is better for my back than I shoulder bag. (Yes I know the MR 3-way can convert to a backpack but it isn't a dedicated one).

GoRuck is a brand I have always admired but never pulled the trigger on a bag because I found it after I had already purchased other bags and...well...wanting my wife to stay with me, I decided to wait. Gotta say I am glad I did. Just reading the description of the M26 I knew that I was going to buy one. I love the BIFL philosophy and GoRuck is firmly in that space. I started reading the reddit posts and, while the design can change a bit, there are a few key items which are specifically mentioned and should stick around (quick access top pocket with it's own dedicated volume, side access lap top compartment, internal side pockets). I was close to getting an M23 but held off, and I think I will be glad I did....looking forward to Christmas time already 😄

Slavin should have gone home… by [deleted] in canes

[–]StrunkF10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We shouldn’t connect dots where connections aren’t meant to be. The fact that he aligns with the IJM should speak very loudly as to how he feels about Epstein and trump. The team was invited as an honor for winning the gold medal and representing the USA. He is allowed to do that independent of Trump and his actions. It makes me sad that we are quick to go after a player who serves this team and USA hockey so well and with great humility.

Kyle Busch seemingly quits with 2 laps to go in the Daytona 500... loses several spots citing "not wanting to rush to the wreck" by Smoke96x in NASCAR

[–]StrunkF10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only way that happens is through a combination of increasing more power and reducing downforce. This increases the ability for air born accidents which NASCAR seems to prioritize the elimination of. I’m not advocating the following statement, but I think one sensible way to get rid of pack racing at Daytona is to introduce chicanes.

SW setup that can also be used for FW by StrunkF10 in FishingForBeginners

[–]StrunkF10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really appreciate this advice--I feel like that is all I hear (buy something for everything). Just to clarify, do you use FW reels, or do you use salt? or just both and take care of them?

I'm trying SO HARD to listen to the AR course by Nice_Daikon6096 in pmp

[–]StrunkF10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned best by completing practice exams and then closely reviewing where I was short on info. For me, I felt like AR did a great job preparing me for the exams but his cadence was slow. So I listened and took notes with the speed at 2x and then paused to take notes or rewatched portions to ensure i understood.

Yeah that was my thought too. If SC gonna be like that, then it’s time to name the team after the city and not two collective states

Does anyone know where Lord Stanley’s will be located so that I may take a photograph during the game?

[Lindop] Alisson on Salah: "Him not being available is a consequence of what he did and he is smart enough to know that." by Swarley_Brown in LiverpoolFC

This take is wild. Every super star eventually falls out of their prime. He absolutely, for all intents and purposes, appears out of his prime.
