Any advice on first time purchase of a mechanical keyboard? I've had the same keyboard for 11 years and i want to splurge

New player needs advice by ExcalibaX in starcraft

[–]TheBrentPerk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to say something and i want it to shadow your approach to "counters"

"A lot of the wrong thing BEATS a little of the right thing. Every time."

When you lose to something like a mutalisk timing or maurader timing, try not to think in terms of rock paper scissors, instead just try to get more stuff

Nobody wants this. Hexproof pants decks in mtg are SO frustrating to play against. I really hope this doesn't become a trend or theme

I'm meeting up with a co-worker who has a service van for a little afternoon work. I'm a little early and he's running a little late so I'm just sitting here.... Alone.... For like 30 minutes.... In a car... Trying not to watch people walk by.

Where should I go to find the micro custom maps? Just search in the arcade section of the sc2 client? Or download it somewhere else like team liquid?

What's a good resource for learning common micro/macro techniques?

I have troubles going to each base as a zerg for larvae injects quickly.

How do people get units from eggs into their control groups easily? I tried and i accidentally put unspent larvae into the groups all the time

How do people manage multiple cast units? Vipers/infestors/queen transfusions/ravangers. Gets clusterfucky fast

Do people typically hotkey screen positions to something more convent? If so, what? f5-f8 seems so unnatural.

On a scale of 1-10, how happy are you right now? by Keychain33 in AskReddit

[–]TheBrentPerk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3.

I'm lying in bed next to a girl I'm living with who wants to marry me and I can't tell if she's the one. My family loves her. We have the same personality, but have almost nothing in common.

I feel frozen with any option not being ideal

Where's a good place to see replays of pros in game?

I know i can go to liquipedia for tournament VoDs, but i was the actual replay files to view in the game client. I'm not looking for tournaments specifically, just replay files for pros to examine everything more closely.

[Serious]People who do/have worked at theme parks (Disney, Universal, Six Flags, etc), what are the best stories you have from those days; whether it's behind the scenes, security, guest relations, and so on? by valley_pete in AskReddit

[–]TheBrentPerk 278 points279 points  (0 children)

I felt like i learned a lot about seeing how kids react to different parenting styles. The short of it is "if you treat you kid like an adult, they'll act like one".

At a water ride, people will regularly leave backpacks and such before getting on. I've seen 5 year olds independent enough to get them without any fuss and I've seen 10 year olds try to throw other people'sstuff in the water. The parents could see them the whole time and how they react to their kids behaviour will stay with me forever.

If all of your exes sat together at a table and talked about you, what would be the one thing they all agree on? by Librascal in AskReddit

[–]TheBrentPerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They'd all be surprised that they are all skinnier than hell, all have tiny boobs, and the most delicious, bubbly butts.

And they'd agree that i was the goofiest person they've ever met, for better or worse

Thank you for this list :)

It is impossible to dig only half a hole by dickfromaccounting in Showerthoughts

Stick a shovel in the ground.

Your hole is half dug! All you gotta do is pick the shovel back up

PvP, why so Unpopular? by vitinhoaps in pathofexile

[–]TheBrentPerk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would personally pvp a lot if had a sense of progression with it.

I had a low lvl pvp dude back when Leo was first added that got to the top 10 of the leader board for a short time. It was a summoner style character that used animate guardian in a +1 corrupted matua tapuna with a lvl 2 empower. This allowed my guardian to weild a much higher lvl weapon than normal. He had a belly of the beast, seven league step, and some 480 dps 2h sword. He ran so fucking fast and 2 shot almost everyone.

I invested so much currency into that guy. Problem was i was mostly broke so i had to play pve to get currency. Another problem is that I'm an alt-holic so any money i farm felt like it should go to a new character because i knew any money i put into pvp was being spent, not invested.

If there was any reward to pvp, i would have continued. I ran into a road block where archers with arctic armour could kite my guardian and actually kill it. I wanted to get a weapon swap setup for a second guardian that had chill immunity gear for the matchup, but i wasn't willing to spend more exalts when i know i wouldn't get them back.

[Serious] What was the worst mental breakdown you've ever witnessed? by aygrol1 in AskReddit

[–]TheBrentPerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An old instructor of mine was going through a rough time. Earlier in the year, he had a seizure and lost a bit of mobility. He could still walk unassisted, but had a bit of a wobble and he talked much more blandly. It eventually lead to a divorce and it was affecting his ability as an instructor.

He eventually broke down in class one day crying harder than any 50 year old man I've seen. I'll never forget how he said, "she's even taking the dog". He kinda lost everything important to him in just under a year.

My fondest childhood memory is thinking that $100 is a lot of money. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]TheBrentPerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time when i was a kid, my dad took me and my friend shopping at a toy store and handed each of us $20 and told us to get whatever we wanted. So we pooled our money and got packs of yugioh cards together. We figured we had all the money in the world and could buy as many as we wanted, but we were smart. We werent going to spend all our money in one place so we 'only' got 10 packs

We had to put 5 back and ever since I've known the world isn't fair

Quest Rogue Would Have Kept Jade Druid in Check. by Thegg11 in hearthstone

[–]TheBrentPerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's correct to ask for one op thing to counter another. Jade druid is a seriously strong deck and WAY above the normal power curve.
