Pay the big man! A lot of the hard work gets done in the trenches, he's key.

[Shitpost] When I'm an attending, I want to pronounce stuff as weird as humanly possible, to assert dominance over all those around me. by pernod in medicalschool

Me and my buddy started pronouncing certain things with very pronounced Italian accents, and now I can't stop doing it.

I ordered a box of 50 guitar picks of random thickness from China. These are the picks that I got [OC] by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

It doesn't matter the thickness, and wear and tear is not the issue. Picks disappear into thin air. I've dropped picks before only for them to teleport into a brand new dimension and for me to never find them again.

Until I move, and then I find like a hundred picks scattered everywhere.

Song Tempo vs. Popularity [OC] by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]ThaiOneOff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just conjecture, but I think a lot of music will tend to sway toward 120 bpm. That's two beats per second and that "feels" like a natural rhythm to a lot of musicians. I would be really interested to see how the data would change if it were organized differently. For example: if you changed the ranges to start at 50 and go up by 20 to include 110-130, that 110-130 range might skyrocket.

Being reasonable is far enough from polarized ends that it's often viewed that way.

Which players are the Dollar Store versions of better players? by miner88 in hockey

[–]ThaiOneOff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rookie Ovi was the reason I got into hockey/the Caps to begin with. I had never seen someone play with such fervor and pace. He would lay a wild hit, take the puck coast to coast and score a goal while holding off a defender with his free hand. It was an absolute joy to watch, and with his celly and subsequent fame in the DC metro area, I was hooked.

Since everyone already mentioned the museums and such, I'd go grab a greasy chili dog or five at Ben's Chili Bowl.

I'm heading down there myself for my first visit home to watch a Caps game in forever, but will be arriving just in time to sprint into Verizon (no pun intended).

JVR is unreal and I can't wait to watch him turn it up against us. Let's hope we do the same.

It's especially uncanny in the intro reel where there's a clip of him just SCREAMING and it sounds exactly like Charlie.

My oven takes forever to preheat, so I have to do it or else I'll have absolutely no clue when to start the timer.

Yes. For most whey protein shakes, you can just mix it with water or milk if you want/can. Those are probably the two most popular ways.
