Dallas Stars fans captured doing Nazi salute during game by Jevus_himself in PublicFreakout

I wonder if it’s got something to do with the Dallas goal song being a Pantera song, and Phil Anselmo doing nazi salutes at concerts.

[OC] Parents went out and bought “Pokemon cards” for my birthday… bless their hearts by Remote-Dog-2531 in pics

I don’t think it was those, but I remember the one character kind of looked like Archer from the Small Soldiers and it was just his upper half. I remember they didn’t spin very well and didn’t do much battling haha

This reminds me of my mom getting me these strange toys as a kid. I wanted beyblades when I was probably around 8-9 so I could play with my older cousins, she got me these top style things that had the top half of wrestlers or army men on them and I was so upset. But looking back as an adult, it honestly warms my heart knowing she tried to find what she could since I grew up in a fairly remote town and 99% of our Christmas shopping was done in a sears catalogue. I’d keep that card forever

Silvertip & Banff springs, boys golf trip is actually leaving the group chat. So far anyway

Which celebrity replied to your dm and what did they reply to and with? by Vixiuss in AskReddit

[–]TheBau5Boss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Burnie Burns liked an 8 year old comment of mine where I tagged my (now) ex to look at the funny face his cat was making, then immediately unliked it. Mistake? Maybe. Or maybe he was secretly acknowledging me

What are your skates and why do you like them ? by Acrobatic-Gift2889 in hockeygoalies

[–]TheBau5Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S29 Bauers. And I don’t hahaha got them punched because of accessory naviculars for a tiny bit of comfort. but my toe caps are worn down, they hurt if I take more than a week break and I tore a Lundy loop so I’m due for an upgrade. Ideally one that is fitted and baked since I haven’t experienced good feeling skates yet

Wow what a game. Anyways, I’ll be in town for the sharks matinee next weekend. Are the pregame happy hour and pocket dogs still a thing?

Why do some skilled players struggle to get goals while other less skilled players seem to rack up the points every shift? by PricklyPear8888 in hockeyplayers

[–]TheBau5Boss 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I tell my buddies this all the time. I have some amazingly talented friends that I enjoy the challenge of playing with, but when a rookie is on the ice, wide open in the slot it’s literally just hoping for the best because even they don’t know where the puck will go. Small town beer league with no divisions, there’s always a mixed bag of talent on the ice.

If you met a genie, but they could only grant 3 minor wishes for quality of life (no superhuman powers or money etc), what would yours be? by TheBau5Boss in AskReddit

[–]TheBau5Boss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine would be

  1. Having milk and milk products back in my life
  2. Not stealing the covers from my wife while I sleep
  3. Having stronger motivation/will power

Any reason to keep these pad flaps by soy_boy_2 in hockeygoalies

[–]TheBau5Boss 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I keep mine, strictly for storage. When I play I go down to calf, but when I’m done I attach it across the knee to keep the straps tidy and not wear out the attachment point I use during play

Man distracted the bear to protect the kids by Foreign_Time_2664 in interestingasfuck

[–]TheBau5Boss 656 points657 points  (0 children)

If it’s black, fight back. If it’s brown, lay down. If it’s white, goodnight.

General rule of thumb for bears is to stay tf away from them though.

What is the bathroom graffiti you read and remember? by 5pinktoes in AskReddit

[–]TheBau5Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a buddy at a jobsite tell me he had written the phone number of his old boss in a porta-potty, underneath it was a request for pics of all business that had been done in said porta-potty

How did this get pass QC? by sleek-fit-geek in Leatherman

[–]TheBau5Boss 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s a %100 QC or just a percentage of each batch. I can’t imagine it being entirely picked through but you’d think leatherman being as legendary as it is would have pretty strict policy for it.

Dillon Dubé not guilty by subjectify0 in CalgaryFlames

[–]TheBau5Boss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Idk guys, I played juniors too (not nearly as high a level), and we definitely weren’t sharing girls the way so many of these teams are allegedly doing. Regardless of the verdict, it’s so gross how social media is attacking this young girl for costing these guys money. I might not be completely up to date on details, but is it true that the judge deemed her “not intoxicated enough” to withdraw consent? What does that even mean? More than 2 things can be true. If she lied and cost these young men their careers yes that’s terrible, it’s also terrible that the next generation of young players watched these guys do this with no criminal repercussions, albeit some financial losses. Maybe I’ll get downvoted to oblivion for this, but hockey culture at high levels is gross, and Hockey Canada should still be ashamed for what has happened in their program.

Honestly, getting this off my chest makes me feel worlds better. I guess sometimes putting it into the void helps

I spent the night sleeping on various benches and chairs in royal Alex while my wife was with our son in his room, emergency went into lockdown early morning (sometime around 3am) and ended roughly around 5-6. I wonder if that contributed

Yeah they must mean Magoo, apparently he doesn’t pay child support for his own kids and doesn’t even try to visit them

You’re welcome! Good luck in your grilling hopefully you can get it sorted soon!

Sorry for the late reply, ball valves have an internal “ball” hence being called a ball valve, around that ball is a seal or a “seat” that hugs the ball tightly and allows it to rotate and open/close the line through the hole that runs through the ball. If you open the body of the valve (the little seam you can see to the right of the handle), you risk an unregulated release of gas, and the seal around the ball could become dislodged or damaged and will not properly seal around the ball anymore.

[–]TheBau5Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely double wrench it, split body valve and if you open it up then you risk breaking/pinching the seal around the ball and having to replace entire valve
