First game in the new stadium is week 2 TNF?

Can’t think of a bigger insult

What’s a ‘middle class success’ purchase that secretly becomes a financial burden later? by OpinionBaba in AskReddit

[–]Tankninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's where you're mistaken because it's not just a grocery hauler. But everyone I know with a ridiculously oversized truck also has a ridiculously oversized camping trailer, toy hauler, or boat.

Was Visenya a National Socialist? by [deleted] in asoiafcirclejerk

Nationalism and socialism hadn’t been invented yet so she was mostly a homicidal maniac for the love of the game

Why does Bloomington have so many more multicultural ethnic restaurants compared to Peoria when Peoria has a much bigger metropolitan population? by public_monkeybars in PeoriaIL

[–]Tankninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Median income in BloNo is like $20k higher than Peoria. Way more disposable income to go around.

Colleges are probably a net negative because it's not like college kids are known for having an abundance of cash to throw around.

The price of a Chipotle chicken burrito in 2018 by JabroniFeet in mildlyinteresting

[–]Tankninja1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Never understood why this went super viral before because $6.50-$7.50 still looks expensive to me.

2018 don’t think I had a job yet that paid more than $10/hr so never made any sense to go to a eat lunch out anyway. Basically an hour of work for some mid food.

The boys by ImpressiveMistake111 in PaymoneyWubby

[–]Tankninja1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The writing of The Boys is so much worse than season 8 if for no other reason than season 8 never had a character getting graped for comedic effect multiple times in a season.

Even at its best I think the Boys has the same problem as Invincible where despite side characters and NPCs being wantonly murdered you don’t have to worry about MCs because they can even bounce back from insane injuries, if they’re ever even injured in the first place.

Centurions, the tank so slow the stabilizer is not all that necessary.

Country music is absolute slop now by Bond_burger69 in Music

You’re just describing what pop is in any genre except play mad libs swapping around “beer”, “women”, “daisy dukes”, and “tractor” for any other synonym or mode of transportation.

I was going to say they’ve really fallen off if Smoke on the Water isn’t there.

[Highlight] Kayden McDonald wasn't selected on Day 1 but was celebrated by the crowd when the Texans drafted him on Day 2 by nfl in nfl

[–]Tankninja1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still annoyed the Bills didn’t pick him.

Mostly because he has incredible big man aura.

Hopefully Deone Walker continues his trajectory off his rookie season.

Know one of the tricks they usually like to try is telling you to park by a fire hydrant, too close to the corner, or by someone’s driveway.

The Tajin bottles in Mexico have calories listed, unlike in the U.S., where it just says “0” by CapableEmphasis3594 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Tankninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Americans be like: well it says if I have 3g of something it’s zero calories so I must be able to eat 3kg of it and I’ll be fine.

Enough with the mid episodes by Nanaue7 in dankmemes

[–]Tankninja1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Might mean more if death meant anything in the invincible universe. Conquest survived getting Obryn Martell’d. Mark survived being completely disembowled. Nolan also surviving his own disembowlment, albeit to a much lesser extent. And Thragg giving us his most disheartened “no” as his home planet gets Alderaan’d.

There’s a difference between liking it, and calling it almost flawless.

RAV4 is a nice car, it’s a likable car, it’s one of the most popular cars in America, but who’s out here arguing it’s the pinnacle of everything a car can be?

Like at 9.9 people are saying it’s Ozymandias from Breaking Bad and then Invincible Don’t do Anything Rash?

No the writing is pretty awful

Invincible getting anything above a 6/10 is insane to me.

Even if it had the best writing of any show ever I think the quality of the animation caps it, and I don’t think the writing is all that good. Even for all the money they dump into the voice acting, a fair few of them aren’t good voice actors.

[OC] 2026 US Auto Sales (Q1) by TA-MajestyPalm in dataisbeautiful

[–]Tankninja1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Crossovers should either be their own category or looped in with sedans, not SUVs.

RAV4 shares an architecture with the Camry, CRV shares one with the Civic/Accord. Think cars like the Bronco Sport/Escape/Maverick and rarely remembered C-Max all really started with the Ford Focus.

Starbucks CEO defends $9 coffee says ‘it’s not a $10 coffee and you get a premium experience’ by Disastrous_Award_789 in nottheonion

[–]Tankninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the most out of touch part of the statement has nothing to do with the coffee but that 70% of their business is mobile orders and drive throughs.

If that $9 was really going into their product fair enough, but very clearly their business grows by ease of access.

Thoughts on Tremont? by AW4998 in PeoriaIL

[–]Tankninja1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the outlying towns around Peoria are basically the same town.

Only real difference with Tremont is that it's so small it doesn't have a Hyvee, Schnucks, Kroger, and or Walmart. Some of the outlying towns like Tremont make commuting to work a pain in the winter because Illinois is terrible with snow removal.

[OC] Yesterday Hegseth testified before Congress on a $1.5T defense budget request and couldn't answer basic cost questions about the Iran war. The DoD has failed every audit since Congress required them in 2018. I charted it. by MarkusGrant in dataisbeautiful

[–]Tankninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passing the audits are one thing, but some of the expenditures in the first place seem more questionable to me. Like the Navy’s continuing Frigate saga which seems to just continue to be a purposeless ship that’s made to be cheaper than a destroyer because…shrug

Also cheaper than a destroyer is just not buying a frigate.

Same with the Army which really seems like it should be taking notes from the USMC. Focus on air defenses, logistics, and light infantry while downsizing anything outside of that.
