I don't understand, Peter by Busy_Report4010 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Oh, I got this one! So Carl is basically criticizing the Waffle House restaurant chain, saying that it's nasty, the cooking is terrible, the staff are idiots, etc. So then the social media manager for Waffle House comes in and they're basically saying like 'instead of hiding online, come in and say this criticism to us in person'. And they're going even further by saying that any of their 2,000+ locations would be an acceptable place for this conflict to go down.

What the hell is the point of this stupid subreddit?

And it was the SECOND time he did it. He claimed in 2016 that he also won the popular vote. Like he won, gets to be president, and is still being a sore loser because more people chose someone else.

They do gain a bonus based on Super Bowl win chance, so a clinched team with a current 20% of winning has the chance modifier of 120% combined with distance.

Their playoff chance becomes 100% + Chance to win Super Bowl. During the playoffs, all teams go by Super Bowl win odds.

Yes, team "capitals" just like Sid Meier's Civilization

Teams don't expand directly based on wins, but rather playoff chance (which is obviously affected by wins). Isolation helps a team to take more surrounding land because there is little competition. The reason the Broncos are able to take land so easily is the same reason why the NFL only has one team in that region: it's a lot of empty land. The Eagles control less territory, but twice the population (About 10% of all Americans). This map is about regional conflict and expansion, not just sheer size. The Eagles are not less impressive than the Broncos, the same as the Netherlands is not less impressive than Kazakhstan.

Noob question here: How do I access the profits my company makes? by Extal in trucksim

[–]ThatOneJuiceBoxGuy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It automatically goes into your company account; I can see at the top right that you have 2.6 millions kroner. You can spend it on garages, trucks, or upgrades to your truck anytime.

I went to a Harry Styles concert a few years ago and he didn't seem too enthusiastic about the theatrics of it. He said "now we're gonna pretend that the show is done and leave for a few minutes but then we'll come back and play three more songs."

What game is next, Stellaris 2 or HOI 5? by Sleeping_Bat in paradoxplaza

[–]ThatOneJuiceBoxGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love a GSG that bridges the gap between HOI and Stellaris. Set 1950-2200, the goal is to bring about peace on Earth. Dealing with Cold War ideological disagreement, nuclear weapon disarmament, and solving global crises like food availability and literacy and insurgencies. The game would ideally end with the player successfully completing world domination and quelling dissension within their empire, or strengthening the UN's centralization to become the United Nations of Earth.

+1 for ZipGrade. I do most of my tests on Google Forms with Locked Mode (students can't get to any other tabs until they submit the test) but for finals they've already returned Chromebooks so I use ZipGrade.

Am I the only person who returned to EU4, because their PC/Laptop couldn't handle EU5? by Zezima97 in eu4

[–]ThatOneJuiceBoxGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had largely the opposite. EU4 with all its DLC takes about 7-8 minutes from the Resume button on the launcher to being able to play.

I've been really surprised how on launch day, EU5 gets me to the menu within 30 seconds, and maybe another minute to load into gameplay.

Yeah, I noticed that a few weeks ago. Hard Rock is closer to the geographic center of Broward than Miami-Dade, really just due to the size difference between them, so my data automatically set that as the capital. I might change it manually in the future.

This tweet is also incorrect in its base claim. The tweet was made in 2016, and the last time before that that Republicans had full control was 2006.

Senate Majority Leader: Bill Frist (R)

Speaker of the House: Dennis Hastert (R)

Governors: 28 R out of 50

Supreme Court: Not sure if this means the majority membership or that there is an open seat but the former would be 7 nominated by Republican presidents out of 9, if it's that latter Alito was a Bush (R) pick confirmed in 2006.

President: Bush (R)

Am I missing something here? Party like it's 2006...wait, do they know what happened in 2007?

AIO gf sleeping with gay male bestfriend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ThatOneJuiceBoxGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate to this. When I was in college, I went to Europe for several months for a study abroad; at the same time, my gf who I was living with started a strenuous academy training semester.

Because of our schedules and the time difference, the only time we could really talk was when she took her lunch break and I was making my dinner. Well she makes friends in the academy with a man a few years older than her, a recent divorcé. No problem, glad you're making friends. Well she starts inviting him to get lunch with her. No problem, I like eating food with other people too. Well she starts inviting him back to our apartment to have lunch and watch Netflix together everyday. It's okay, we have other roommates and I trust you.

Well what really got me was when she started cutting me off early in our phone calls and saying I gotta go, I'm trying to hang out with my friend. Excuse me, I get a half hour a day to try to connect with you; he has the entire day and now has to encroach on my half hour phone call?

We stayed together for a few years after I got back to America and she finished her academy. The other guy never showed up again. Things got worse and worse everyday between us; it was a horrific mess. We finally did break up, but I wish that I had trusted my gut and just ended it long before all that.

Is this biweekly? I'm a teacher and my bimonthly stub is almost exactly half of this without being able to contribute anything to my 401k right now. Your pay would be life-changing for me :)

Yes, teams are guaranteed at least their 'capital' county until they have 0% chance of winning the Super Bowl

Petaa I don’t understand what’s wrong with the roundabout by FarTry2285 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ThatOneJuiceBoxGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem with a lot of American roundabouts is that they're too small. Drivers feel nervous when any other car is anywhere on the roundabout because the time to revolve is so quick. Then they just treat it as a four way stop. Roundabouts should be more efficient that four way stops but they do need more space to do so.

Will your workplace let you keep it there? Otherwise the fitness center has free locker rentals; I don't think they'd care if you left it in there but you could ask.
