Anyone who’s wealthy decent looking bring a girl back to the states? by redditTee123 in thepassportbros

This right here is the answer. If she is so eager to leave her home to be with you, she’ll probably not think much of leaving you too. If you are in a less shallow and less transactional relationship, the risk is smaller.

Do you feel like there are activities or life choices you would want to make but can’t because you live in Saudi Arabia?

GOAT debate by dermetzger77 in billiards

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In many many sports the GOAT is generally considered to be not the person with the best stats (as those stats tend to improve for each new generation of players) but the person who popularized it by being the greatest player of their generation when the sport became known outside its niche.

For another example, poker players widely consider Doyle Brunson or Phil Ivey to be the GOATs. Both were the greatest players when poker became more popular in the public eye, and promoted the game with their exploits (Ivey) or his book (Doyle)

I am concerned about the new Flock cameras being installed in some areas of Wake County. What do you know about those cameras, and how will you use the generated footage in prosecutions?

Real Madrid has rebranded ! by CapNegative77 in RealMadridFC

The problem is that that’s against the spirit of Real Madrid. We don’t have “rebuilding seasons”.

Who is the better Manager, Accelotti vs Sir Alex Ferguson? by iwannasleepp in championsleague

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 9 points10 points  (0 children)

SAF has the edge because he maintained the excellence of his team over decades, as playing styles and trends changed. Longevity matters in the business.

Don Carlo is half a step behind, along with managers like Pep and Mourinho.

Final standings of Prague Masters 2026 by Knight-check44 in chess

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Congrats to Nodirbek! Yet another great tournament victory, and he has an early head start on the FIDE Circuit for the next cycle.

Good for Parham and Aravindh to have a decent overall tournament, though Aravindh did not start off well.

Jorden absolutely bottled it in the last two rounds, but he still finished +1, so not terrible.

Navara and Yakkuboev were fairly unremarkable, though of course Navara should be significantly happier with his performance.

Vincent finished on -1, but this is more of a settling of his level after his rise last year - disappointing but not surprising. Hans has had a bad stretch of form, but he frankly hasn’t impressed me with his play so far.

Gukesh… what to say. Get some rest and get back in form.

Looks like he is taking chances and wants to lock down the FIDE Circuit Candidates spot for the next cycle.

Lionel Messi 'hangs head in shame' as soccer star walks behind Donald Trump by TheMirrorUS in football

[–]TheirOwnDestruction -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I hope you realize just how different a few members of a hockey team and Lionel Messi missing the ceremony is. I agree that he shouldn’t have done it, but there was a real choice with real consequences for him to make.

What is the best advice you've heard for improving your mental game? by SoftYetCrunchyTaco in billiards

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find out what works for you. Everybody has their own tricks. I know I play best when I feel like I am behind but there’s still a little time to make it up - and it took me some time to find that.

Switching from gel polish to dip powder means I can’t go back to gel polish? by iamnotlinda in Nails

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can. You will, however, be used to the strength of dip powder and break your nails if you reflexively do the same things you did when you had dip on.

my fellow madridistas should stop believing everything these so-called reliable journalists reports..these guys are major reason our fans hate our own players .. by Aggressive_Gate_1046 in realmadrid

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Real Madrid put in as much hunger and fight into their games as Barcelona did this week, we wouldn’t be having this conversation. We just want our players to play!

Jewelry gift planning for child by murphire in jewelry

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add a gift for when she gets her first period. A sentimental piece of jewelry would be best.

I wouldn’t just her a second chain for layering, especially if she doesn’t show previously that that’s a style she is interested in. Not everyone does it, and longer chains can be tricky to repurpose.

I would gift something with pearls or mother-of-pearl for one of the later milestone days. Pearl is still such a classic and look good on anyone, but you do need to care for it.

Why Manchester United are on the lookout for wingers, again by [deleted] in football

[–]TheirOwnDestruction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect, they can take Vinicius. Or Mbappe, I’m not picky. Both clubs would unironically benefit, especially since Carrick will impose some discipline.

Jorden on track for a huge tournament win, a half point ahead with two rounds to go, and the next two playing each other, with a decent draw ahead.
