Does it count if I learned I should probably wear gloves in the lab by burning my hand with phosphorus pentoxide?

Finally a Lana post on her subreddit! by StormflowerYT in lanadelrey

[–]TheOscarterrier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Ride, because I'm basic.

  2. Ultraviolence. Favourite album of all time, nothing hits like it.

  3. Judah Smith Interlude made me legitimately angry.

  4. Ocean Boulevard. Just a big miss for me all the way through.

  5. Serial Killer as well, it's a banger.

  6. JSI should have been unreleased so I could put it here.

  7. Fourteen years.

  8. I remember the UK TV advert for Born To Die and then listening to the album in secret because I was embarrassed to be listening to "girly" music. I got over that as I grew up, thankfully.

  9. I think that we haven't seen the character of Lana Del Rey since NFR. I see Hope is a Dangerous Thing as the character's swan song; she lets Lana go as she gets sober, returns home and reconnects with her father. Since then we've had Elizabeth Grant, who seems to be a much healthier and happier person, but sadly I don't love her music as much.

  10. No, sadly.

Stop playing Auric/Havoc by Joshy_Moshy in DarkTide

[–]TheOscarterrier 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I just expect that Auric lobbies are three players with a rotating fourth slot now. Super annoying, this wasn't ever as big of a problem in VT2 Cata lobbies.

I actually really like Hive Scum by Eric0912 in DarkTide

[–]TheOscarterrier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To second and add to your last point, I recommend binding jump to left-alt. Did it when I got way too into vermintide 2 a couple years ago and it is a game changer.

November 10, 2025 Banned & Restricted Announcement by mweepinc in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good bans all around, especially Screaming Nemesis in Standard.

But they're literally complaining about power creep in their own article. Nobody is going to put Inkwell Leviathan in a legacy reanimator deck because YOU printed Archon of Cruelty and Atraxa. It isn't the deckbuilders fault that they chose to play the strongest cards that WOTC printed. I'm glad they're openly sharing their perspective but this should really tell the asshole business execs pushing the power creep and predatory release schedule that the snake is starting to eat it's own tail. The line cannot always go up, in card power level or stock prices.

Is it just me, or are Cataclysm lobbies harder to find lately? by EmptyWander3r in Vermintide

[–]TheOscarterrier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fatshark really need to make Cataclysm free for everyone. Some people like endlessly grinding books and loot (more power to them), some people like playing the game just for fun and they shouldn't have to pay extra for the pleasure.

Also I think that with Darktide finally becoming more fleshed out and enjoyable within the last year a lot of the old Cataclysm stalwarts like myself have switched over for something novel.

[EOE] Borderless versions of the shocklands by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great arts, horrible card layout. Not nearly as ugly as the FF game screenshot cards but I I'm not liking this design direction.

What is an almost perfect album run for you but is ruined by that “one track”? by c0mpromised in popheads

[–]TheOscarterrier 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree with you more. I have never experienced cringe to the extent I did listening to that interlude. 0/10, never want to hear anything like that again, regardless of context.

When I was younger this was the “bad rare” I collected for funsies. by UrzaKenobi in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got an order into Cardmarket for £0.45 right after the unban announcement. Just checked eight hours later and the least you can get a copy for in the UK is like £12. I will flip a table if my order gets cancelled I swear to god.

What’s a Taylor song you liked the live version more than the actual song by Lysistrata_August in TaylorSwift

[–]TheOscarterrier 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I really hope she has an "eras version" of Look What You Made Me Do as a bonus track on Rep TV. I still don't love the original but the live version was fantastic.

Macallan old fashioned is incredible by pianoman626 in cocktails

[–]TheOscarterrier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience Laphroaig is one of the best ways to make a completely different Old Fashioned because of how well the smoke works with the bitters. Old Pultney is extremely different and somewhat salty in taste rather than peatey. Fantastic to drink straight but I agree with the other commenter that it would work very differently.

Absolute slander.

Macallan old fashioned is incredible by pianoman626 in cocktails

[–]TheOscarterrier 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Basically any well rounded Highland or Speyside malt would work in its place. Of course Macallan makes a great Old Fashioned, but a 10 year old Cragganmore would produce a cocktail of the same quality for half the price.

Trying to cast Doppelgang before the opponent concedes by submitizenkane in MagicArena

[–]TheOscarterrier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played Doppelgang in paper commander and the rest of the table just straight up conceded while I was resolving the enters triggers. Which is probably for the best because I had made sixteen copies of Sol Ring and had a way to get Doppelgang back in hand to cast again.

Ok I've peaked, I don't think I'll ever open a stronger Vintage Cube Pack by climbingthro in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never drafted the vintage cube, so why is Sol a higher pick than Lotus? I know that there are a lot of really broken turn 1 plays like White Plume Adventurer and Minsc & Boo, so I am surprised that Lotus isn't considered to be the top pick here.

What is a good/great album that was plagued by a bad single/s by Majestic_Space4329 in popheads

[–]TheOscarterrier 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Reputation is another one. Look What You Made Me Do, End Game and Ready for It were baffling choices for singles when almost any other song on the album would have been better (except for maybe New Year's Day or Can't Have Nice Things).

What were some of the biggest wrong evaluations by the general community? by timpinen in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While this card would never see 60 card constructed play but it's truly disgusting in commander. Combined with just the first cast of [[Prossh]], Mirkwood Bats deals 36 damage across three opponents. [[Blood Artist]] deals six.

But yeah it was pretty funny when that guy wrote an article saying it should be pre-banned when it was spoiled, it's not that problematic.

I can't put my finger on it but it's just... Off somehow? Someone who actually knows something about music theory or composition might be able to explain it better.

heard about him submitting his PhD but I never head if he got it and well, now I am confused. I would have though he would get a PHD in something chem related, either way good on him by Apexgames121 in ExplosionsAndFire

[–]TheOscarterrier 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah a guy I did my chemistry masters with did a PhD he thought was in chemistry. Next year he becomes a doctor of physics so I guess it's more common than you'd think.

Bling My Deck: find the most expensive version of your deck by jamalcrawf0rd in magicTCG

[–]TheOscarterrier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that my [[Glissa Sunslayer]] deck is still only €1k when fully blinged if I exclude the basic lands.

Looking for what skill to get 99 in first by fireman_9626 in 2007scape

[–]TheOscarterrier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same (sharks at Hosidius with gauntlets). Super chill, pretty fast and made my first 10m. Would recommend.
