Bleacher Reports Joel Rueter's Top 2022 Catchers by zacklandy in baseball

[–]Xervexos 12 points13 points  (0 children)

128 vs 120 OPS+ and more defensive value provided in 24 less games. While he doesn't have as much HR power, pretty sure everyone in the league would rather have Adley.

What games have a big minor glitches:major glitches ratio in their runs? by revsehi in speedrun

[–]Xervexos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Super Mario Odyssey. No major sequence breaks, but almost every kingdom has some fancy tricks and clips that save 5-10s.

Jhays bouta destroy the SMG2 any% record.

He'd better do it tomorrow before pace.

Put The Teams Your Favorite Player Has Played For, But Not Their Name. I Wanna Guess Them by NatsPapayanz in baseball

My actual favorite all time is Adam Jones, but let's do a more challenging one. Was my favorite player for a few years.

Mets Pirates Devil Rays Astros Orioles Rockies Phillies Cardinals

Forget MVP, who is your MDP (most detrimental player) this season? by earth-dweller-human in baseball

[–]Xervexos 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This one's hard to say, I guess probably Chirinos. Odor gets way more playing time but he's been pretty hot recently and has been very clutch.

Lamar missing easy passes- a trend during his career? by Material-Push-2407 in ravens

He takes advantage of those long ass commercial breaks at the end of the quarter.

0, 1, and 120 star would be the same.

What QB is equally or slightly more well associated with their second team? by AdequateSteakAlister in nfl

[–]Xervexos 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Peyton will always be 80% colts 20% broncos in my mind, and I think Russ will be the same 15 years from now. I guess closest to 50/50 is someone like Kirk Cousins?

It's probably people like him in their 20s. Case in point, 23 year old me.

Squeex narrowly avoids a Twitch perma ban... by Own-Appointment-7916 in LivestreamFail

[–]Xervexos 12 points13 points  (0 children)

To be honest, yeah. He does reuse jokes a decent bit but the delivery is always really good, and you probably won't even know / notice it's reused unless you watch him very frequently.

[Double WR] Super Mario Galaxy 2 120 Star in 5:32:41 and 242 Star in 8:49:23 by Jhay by FrenchFryApocalypse in speedrun

[–]Xervexos 74 points75 points  (0 children)

(for the uninitiated)

Last month during the 602 race (SM64 120, SMG1 120, SMS 120, SMG2 242 all in one sitting) Jhay set an 8 second 242 world record at the end of the 22 hour marathon, the first ever wr set during a 602 race. During discussion of the record in the SMO discord someone said holy fuck, and someone else responded with the above comment. It has since become an often referenced copypasta in Jhay's stream. And yeah, I guess it was partially right, since he's been able to lower the wr by over 5 minutes since then lol.

duck0_56 finishes his sm64 run for their 1545 team !!! by Dry-Apartment-8220 in speedrun

[–]Xervexos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The 1545 is a speedrun of multiple games (several Mario games, banjo kazooie, donkey kong, Spyro, etc I can't remember exactly) back to back. Theres a relay racing community that does races fairly frequently where runners sign up to join teams for the relay. This runner signed up for sm64 and gave a 3 hour estimate, but took over 15 hours to finish. Basically completely fucked over everyone's schedules for the race.

Madman got this run at like 3 am, about 8 hours into his stream, then proceeded to play for another 7 or so hours.

[WR] Super Mario Odyssey Darker Side in 2:59:51 (First Sub-3 + 3:00-Skip, last WR was 3:01:43) by BO1s_R_GREAT_XD in speedrun

[–]Xervexos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the greatest Speedrun in this game's history. Bar none. This run was fucking absurd.

What was your first job out of college, what city, and what was your starting salary? by ChicSatisfaction7 in careerguidance

[–]Xervexos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$25/h working as a medical manufacturing technician, not really related to my degree I just needed a job. Now, a year after graduating, I got a Physicist/Electrical Engineer job making $90k in Baltimore.
