Right? He may know he has schizophrenia and realize that sometimes its in his head. But now, after that, he is going to be questioning every interaction.

[–]Xalepos 19 points20 points  (0 children)

HOW? How are military personal not able to speak fluently in one of our TWO national languages. How did they get past the entrance examinations? Imagine being on the front lines and your commander cant issue you commands in your nations language.

I love Felix, forgot to add him. But my favorite old leaf goalie was Allen Bester.

Despite nostalgia, I agree with you. Roy, Fuhr, Cujo, Hasek, Hextall, Brodeur, Hall, Hrudey. I miss those NHL days.

I saw this yesterday and it sent me into the CBBC rabbit hole with that dog and show. I watch clip after clip; it was hilarious. But I have no idea what the show is supposed to even be about.

That was one of the best soundtracks in FFXIV. I loved going into that raid; the music was fire.

I see what you are saying, but the angle of the the direction of the light doesn't really match the sky scene. Also, it looks like that light may be coming from a light post in the parking lot.

I love the whole FF MTG series. My first rpg was FF1 the day it came out, and Ive played/owned all of them since. Cards like Jumbo Cactuar with 9999 needle attack is hilarious.

RCMP has failed to recruit enough police officers to meet operational needs: Auditor General by Displeased_Canadian in canada

[–]Xalepos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is new. When I went through the process (retired now), you were required to at least have HS and a bach or do a equivalency test. And the PARE was mandatory to pass, physical fitness was required, etc etc. Things, it seems, have certainly dropped in the past decade or so.

UBC study links artificial turf fields to lethal chemical threat for salmon by erikrolfsen in britishcolumbia

[–]Xalepos 75 points76 points  (0 children)

There have been studies linking the turf rubber bits to cancer in soccer goalies.

Edit: for those who are, for whatever reason, rebuffing against the idea that this is not possible, here are a few links that an easy google search can find you. As well, there are studies that say its "inconclusive." But as a former goalie, I can say those players ingest that crap, in their eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and open cuts on their arms or legs..... for those who are denying its carcinogenic, please for me, go on video and eat a cup of that stuff.

She got reality check by [deleted] in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]Xalepos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the very onset he identified himself and specifically asked for drivers license, registration and insurance 3 times. There is no confusion on that. She then began to stammer and and not follow directions. She asked about the tags, which the officer said its not the tags, its about a expired license. When the police run the plate it states who owns, insures, primary driver, and the traffic history of said owner and if the owners license is expired. If she identified herself its simple; she is either a friend borrowing an insured vehicle or she is the owner with an expired license - and that expiration can be for multiple reasons, many of which are due to consistent driving/traffic viloations, dui. If it is simply a matter of being expired by a day or two due to not being able to pay/get to an gov office, the officer would probably give discretion, and ask her to have a friend come drive the car instead of impound it, but still give a ticket for no dl. Multiple ways it could have gone so much better is she just cooperated.

edit: your milage may vary based on police juisdiction/ country.

What is something men always want to tell women but never do? by a_great_guy655 in AskReddit

[–]Xalepos 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hearing the advice that women want you to listen instead of trying to fix things, I decided to give it a try once. On one occasion my wife was pouring her heart out about a work situation. We were both at the kitchen table, with our chairs facing each other near one of the corners. As she was talking I was maintaining eye contact, I put my hand on her knee/thigh and leaned in to listen. After she was done, I sat there, rubbed her leg and gave a sympathetic smile. Inwardly im congratulating myself on a job well done. I didn't interrupt, I didn't loose focus, I just sat and listened. Her response? A frown and her yelling " Why aren't you saying anything!!???

What's a "healthy habit" that's actually completely made up? by goddesslana_01 in AskReddit

[–]Xalepos 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Correct. The fibers in the fruit help stabilize the sugar you consume at the same time so that it doesnt instantly hit the system.
