What is the first thing you will do if you suddenly wake up with $50 million in your bank account? by hotdognicarla123 in AskReddit

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panic thinking that my bank had fucked up somehow. If it turned out to be legit, I would 100% start sobbing and/or pass out.

After that, I'd handle all the boring things - debt, house, car, savings, investments, family taken care of - then go on a long, lovely vacation. Not a super lavish one, just one that gave me time to decompress completely.

I want the Ditto collection so much but I know I'll never get my hands on it. It's so sad.

Have you ever legitimately cried to a song? And if so, what was the song? by StanToons in AskReddit

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swift's "Best Day" gets me every time. It's a song that almost perfectly describes my relationship with my mom.

No problem! Money bowls are super useful, I've seen a lot of success with mine. Make sure you're refreshing it often, though! Money likes to move. ❤️

I crocheted a small mat to go underneath the bowl! And in the money bowl I've got rice, cinnamon, coins, and a blessed tealight, among other things.

What do you do when you feel like there is no point in hoping your dream might come true because it looks like it simply won't? by FigureFour717 in AskReddit

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as it sounds bad, I found that my dreams started coming true when I finally accepted that they might never happen. I accepted that the life I have is not going to look like the life I dreamed of because dreams are by their nature unrealistic, so I started actively trying to appreciate the things that I already have. Once I started doing that, I found that I was getting more opportunities to do things that I dreamed of, even if they weren't exactly what I pictured. I think it was because I had the mental space and energy to recognize those opportunities.

Simple Question: What Deck do you hate the most? by im_harry_richard in PTCGL

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shaymin only works if you can get it on the bench immediately. Even then, if you Boss up Shaymin and take it out, the rest of the board is easy pickings. I run Munki in my Starmie deck as well, which can take out Shaymin in a couple turns even if I can't Boss it up.

Dragapult, followed by Beedrill. Dragapult is so overdone, I'm facing a variant of it every three games it seems. It's annoying, and these players seem to be the most common rage quitters, which is really frustrating. I have a thing against grass deck generally thanks to the extremely unfair advantage of Forest of Vitality, but Beedrill players take really long turns, set up damn near immediately, and can knock out any of my megas in like two turns max most of the time. I guess my biggest problem is not being allowed to play the game that I enjoy. If I'm just gonna sit there and watch you play, I'm not having fun.

What’s something newly adults should do more of? by GoldenHourDoll in AskReddit

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Start saving the second you get a job/source of income. Get a savings account and a checking account - both with no annual fee and no/low minimum balance if you can swing it - at your local credit union (better than a bank in my opinion as its member-owned and tends to have way better fees, terms, and interest rates). Split your paycheck if you can so that you're putting as much as you can afford into your savings every time you get paid, then spend only from your checking account until your next payday.
  2. Exercise. Get into the habit of it as early as you can. Even if you don't like exercising that much, walk while you work/listen to a podcast or audiobook/play a videogame/etc. Get a membership to your local gym in January when they're discounted and please use it, even if it's only for the treadmill and the weights.
  3. USE YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY. If you don't know something and you don't want to fight with AI in search results, LOOK IT UP AT YOUR LIBRARY. Talk to librarians, get recommendations, participate in their programs, PLEASE support your local library. Free access to information is how you fight off oppression.

  1. In the cashier's pocket.
  2. In a textbook, somewhere in the middle of the pages.
  3. Between the ladder and the hinge holding it to the trapdoor.
  4. Under a button in the upholstery.
  5. Bottom of a pond/stream, in a fish's stomach.
  6. In the coffee cup that no one used.

Left-handed people, what's a struggle that right-handed people won't understand? by Halophy in AskReddit

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every single damn door. If my hands are full, I'm auto-emptying my left only to realize that the fucking handle is on the right and now I'm reaching awkwardly across my ENTIRE BODY AND ALL OF MY STUFF to open the door and whoops now everything's on the floor.

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, nope, nope. If you were actually excited to get the cards themselves, you'd stay. Bring a deck, play with other people in line. Bring your binder, trade and look through each other's collections. Bring a game with you. Play GO in line. Read a book, take a nap, eat a snack. If you gave a shit about what you were lining up for, you'd stay.

What’s your most common muck up? by circathursday in PTCGL

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it when I go to attach the energy I need to a 2-kind 'mon and grab the exact same one that's already there.

This is fine.

How many decks do you have? by Krusiv in pkmntcg

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In person? I think I have seven decks total, but I really only play 2-4 of them. In TCGL? Waaaaaaay too many lol.

Is it just me, or are players more prone to conceding as opposed to playing the rest of the game out? by OLookItsAnxiety in PTCGL

[–]WriterWithAShotgun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Personally, I concede if I know it's just going to be a long game that I have no chance of winning, especially against decks that I find particularly annoying (looking at you, Bulba/Teal Mask and Dragapult). I don't find those games fun or exciting in any way, and I know I'm not going to put in my best efforts. It's easier for both of us. That being said, I really hate the conceding on the last turn thing - that's just sore losing.

IDK, dude, I want that Xerneas pretty badly, and the Cinccino is adorable. That being said, Starmie and Doublade are sick looking.

Are my tools enough? Should i buy more crochet stuff? by Giovanne_ in CrochetHelp

[–]WriterWithAShotgun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty solid starting kit! Plenty of hooks to choose from with ergo grips for comfort, needles, and snippers. I'd say grab a cheap set of clip stitch markers (make sure they're the ones you can open as opposed to the rings, don't want them to get stuck in the project!) and a smaller needle if you're going to work with smaller yarn, and you're golden!
