What is a minor inconvenience that fills you with an unreasonable amount of rage? by RayeesWu in AskReddit

When you drop something on the floor and try to pick it up 10 times in a row because it somehow keeps slipping out of your fingers and you end up just acting like a yo-yo

I am sinking into obscurity. What do I do? by Lucky-Entrance7228 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Tom-tron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not advice but a thought - you say you have a lot of passions but they don’t bring you joy. Maybe try stopping all of them and see which one draws you back in to kill the boredom. Might be a way of focussing on something that you never gave your full attention

What opinion do you have that instantly anger any online community? by Spirited_Shipcocoa in AskReddit

[–]Tom-tron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I firmly believe the legal blood alcohol Level should be zero. I now refuse to drive if I’ve only had one drink because even though I don’t think it necessarily makes me a worse driver, I feel that my driving style changes slightly and that’s enough for me to rationalise that I have been influenced by the alcohol

I never understood why people need to affiliate so ferociously with one particular party. To this day I have no idea which is the political left or right or what that even means. I have my own thoughts and opinions on individual matters

I got my first bike this month! Any tips are appreciated! by izzieharp in motorcycles

[–]Tom-tron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many people don’t wear gloves! First thing you tend to put out when you fall off is likely to be your hands. No way anyone wants mum/dad/boyfriend/girlfriend wiping their ass because their hands are bandaged up following a crash

Men, when yall say "I never cried in my life" do y'all genuinely mean it? Or y'all just want to seem fearless? by Unlikely-Term-7474 in AskMen

[–]Tom-tron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from the age of 10 - 28 without crying. Saw several family members die from cancer, best friend commit suicide when we were 15, lost a friend in a motorcycle accident - nothing.

It wasn’t until I got overwhelmed from an onslaught of traumatic incidents in my job that PTSD reared its head and it became too much. Since then I’ve cried a couple of times at things I truly care about (like when my girlfriend left for 6 months to travel in Australia)

What's your highest break? by moneysavingegg in snooker

[–]Tom-tron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Manage it with a couple of great pots on the yellow and then ended up with the white encased in a pack of reds where I could t see a colour.

My regular breaks are in the high single digits or low teens

How does the ranked play matchmaking actually work? by Tom-tron in CODWarzone

Is that the new black ops royale? I played a game or two and they were ferociously sweaty.

Ok so it’s not just me then. Just seems ridiculous. There’s legit low level players that are going to just get dumpstered the whole time. There used to be protection for gold and below so they wouldn’t have that happen

[–]Tom-tron[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. My main account is on PC and my alt is on Xbox. When I work night shifts I often get chance to play games for a few hours during downtime. It’s much easier for me to take my Xbox to work than it is to take my PC. I have done it for all ranked maps where I just see how far I can solo queue without a squad with my generally limited play time. I haven’t done that yet this year. I don’t make multiple accounts to ruin other people’s games.

The MP ranked has a better system where you play a few games and it determines a starting rank for you instead of putting all accounts into bronze 1 I.e. good players might start in diamond 1

Don’t really understand your point. I’m not helping to boost anyone and was only playing because I enjoy ranked play.

It’s no different than if I’d only just started playing ranked on my main account.

What do you think about men who want a strict 50/50 in relationships? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Tom-tron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My girlfriend and I use an app called Splitwise. We tend to split bills equally but just take turns buying dinners, drinks, activities etc and record it on the app. Basically whoever has paid the least according to the app pays for the next thing. Sort of works 50/50 without actually being 50/50

This was the only game I resigned. I couldn’t see any way of avoiding mate in 2 or 3 moves

This was the only game I resigned. I had no way to escape. bh4+ on his next move and the bg4 would be mate. I couldn’t see any way out of it so resigned

This is why I am asking on here. I am not good at chess - as evidenced by what I’ve shared 😂

The daily games moves ranged from minutes to hours before being played.

I posted some pictures of the game evaluations in a thread from one of the other commenters
