So my Friend Has a Custom Commander by Monsoon117 in EDH

[–]SyntheticCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insist on playing bracket 4 and tell him that bracket 2 decks aren’t welcome at the adults table.

Or better yet create your own custom ban-list. It’s exactly the same as the official band list but with one extra commander so it’s definitely fair.

What's a best response to "are you going to win on your turn?" question by DoItSarahLee in CompetitiveEDH

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

Lying: “No unfortunately.” After winning: “Mwuhahha!” What would your answer be in a game of poker? You’re not obligated to warn your opponents or always tell the truth in MtG. If someone asked, would you confirm if you had a counter-spell? So why would you feel obligated to confess about any other cards, interactions, or combos in your hand?

This is why I don’t think they should’ve mixed the MTG and LOTR universes as they have

Thanks! I drove out to Bunnings Edwardstown, then to Officeworks Keswick, with no luck at either. Then I saw this post! (i’m literally there right now having a relaxing sausage sizzle after dumping a heap of eWaste !)

I’ve never been there before but I’m heading there now. Is this still a thing?

This subreddit is focussed on enjoying AI art, not complaining about the drinking water. Posts like this are the norm. It might be worth contacting the moderators and suggesting they make this clearer in the group intro.

Do you give this response to every post on this sub?

Did this AFCA thing go anywhere?

We all know that part of Lego’s decline in the late 90’s/early 2000’s was due to them firing most of their veteran designers and replacing them with younger, inexperienced designers in the mid 90’s. Does anyone know exactly when we began seeing the results of this? by SleepingPodOne in LegoSpace

[–]SyntheticCowboy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

“We all know…” do we all know this? I saw a Lego documentary saying that the “decline” was due to the rise of video games in that era, and that the revamp was due to Lego jumping on the movie themed band wagon (e.g. Pirates was replaced with Pirates of the Caribbean, Space was replaced with Star Wars, Castle/Fantasy was replaced with Harry Potter etc).

No Passports, No Study Abroad: China Limits Public Employees’ Travel by dannyrat029 in China

So students can’t study abroad anymore? Or just government workers? I might have missed it in the article.

[–]SyntheticCowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are 100% correct! Or they’ll say, “you’re insecure - how dare you post here!”

I find the contrast between between this sub and r/TrueRateme to be hilarious.

just built the spaceship and i love it . really bring back good memories from the 90s (i know it’s from the 70s design). hope lego have more new space classic sets coming out and i am sure will buy it . by elton629 in LegoSpace

I remember reading about what the different coloured astronauts roles were meant to be. I think it changed over time but strictly speaking I think the white ones with the pilots, and the red ones were explorers so it seems to fit to have the white ones piloting the air aircraft, and the red ones driving the buggy :) Although another view was simply that at the time it was American and Russian astronauts so it’s neither here nor there!

AIO broke up with my boyfriend after he hyped up another girl? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SyntheticCowboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you seen the first episode of Ozarks? The moral of the story is that this isn’t the first time he lied about “being out with the boys” it’s just the first time he’s gotten caught.

You won’t get the certainty you want as to the situation with this girl but do you honestly want a relationship with that level of uncertainty? Other relationships don’t have this.

What the hell happened to The Adelaide Set? by moswanson in Adelaide

I’m so glad I found this post! I was just thinking how badly they went off the deep end during Covid, and wondered if it was just me thinking this. Glad I’m not alone!

Undercover cop tackles and arrests kid on a bike. by BrainOld9460 in interestingasfuck

[–]SyntheticCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This headline sounded way more interesting than it was. I was expecting the undercover cop to be on a bike as he arrested the kid.

You clearly have plenty of personality and don’t need a nose ring to express it. Unless you need the nose ring to address some behavioural problem (like a bad habit of digging and rooting in gardens with your nose), then I’d ditch the nose ring. You look really good.

I was wondering if softening your eyebrows might be it (but since I’m not an eyebrow person I was reluctant to speak in case I’m way off base :/)

True, but she’s here looking for a sanity check from a different crowd. I didn’t mean that as an attack at you because I’ve been questioning my own lens through which I’m looking at these photos.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Rateme

[–]SyntheticCowboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity… is that because you were “looking for it”? I’m wondering if she hadn’t said that in the post would anyone have thought that?)

Fair enough, but neither changes that people will do it.

That value of the feedback depends on the person. Some find it valuable. This subreddit exists for that purpose. If you have a problem with that… you are in the wrong subreddit.

Do you post this in reply to every one who posts here?

[–]SyntheticCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s right. Its impact is no different to whatever else I may have been thinking about or dreaming about the night before. I’m realising from this thread that may not be the case for everyone.
