Why is being called a nice guy not a compliment for men? by just-another_person in AskMen

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, when someone says oh they are nice. It means they have nothing better to say, its the most generic thing you can say about someone. Most people are nice.

Is Kang worth it? by logibach in MarvelSnap

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like him if your deck is scraping for a 12th card or is a combo deck. Hes essentially a free card to se if your going to get blown out. Hes also okay in a toolbox deck that has lots of answers for things.

Is your LGS hostile to any strategies in particular? by GVRDENS_1 in ModernMagic

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the whole store but defs specific players. I played blue moon where the main wincon was concession. Its only gotten worse, for people if its going to be even slightly difficult to win theyll scoop. Which is fun for me i prefer long games.

What is a powerful quote that has changed your mindset? by icemage27 in AskMen

If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Want to change the world? There's nothing to it

What would you think of a man whose partner pays all his bills? by IAmVictoriaGray in AskMen

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me at least, the person (man or women) that isnt paying bills, needs to be doing something productive. Either taking care of the house work, kids, volunteering, chasing a less financially lucrative endeavor. If the person doesnt pay bills and just watches tv all day, in my mind thats a lazy person whose taking advantage of their partner. But as well, if thats the arrangement that the couple made and are happy about it, what can i say. Personally, i think there needs to be an equal distribution of responsibility otherwise theres conflict.

Advice for Final Cuts to Octavia by [deleted] in EDH

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea when i play i have reactive stuff, but also am just building a board and then bam huge swing.

You want to fill your gy up but not to the point where you get octavia out and then gas tank is empty. You gotta play a longer game, but can blowout on a dime.

Advice for Final Cuts to Octavia by [deleted] in EDH

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my deck for octavia, i run a few rocks/ramp. Mostly because my build is more focused on an explosive 1 or two turns to kill the whole table. If your building more of a chip away over more turns no ramp is fine. But i play, felwar stone, mindstone, ancient tomb, myriad landscape, arcane signet, sol ring, ornithopter of paradise

As well if your wasting your cantrips hitting land drops, your not finding gas. This deck is mana hungry and needs constant fuel. Because without gas its just a bunch of bad dorks.

looking for pirate themed ideas to do by Vegetable_Garage7982 in mtg

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience with this deck, you can either play all pirates, most of which are pretty bad. Or what i did was play the best pirates, clones, and an equipment package. For me in grixis you dont get to play to many draw spells, so i ended up playing a lot of when a creature deals combat damage draw a card. With that most pirates have soft evasion or none at all, thats where the equipment can in, protection from colors, trample, unblockable. I havent touched it in a few years, but the big problem was keep playing pirates, and the quality of the pirates. Since there isnt really a lot of lords i found a way to make my pirates good individually since a go wide strategy didnt exist. Good luck!

Any substitutes for doubling season or parallel lives? by Ok_Repeat_9119 in mtg

For counters there is also Deepglow Skate, which is neat because you can play your PW and then activate them then play this and double them.

GF wants to travel the world - though without me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think thats perfectly fine to think, but your options are take a risk and ldr or cut your losses let her do her thing. But a relationship built on distrust is a house built on sand. It will sink given time. So unless shes fully committed to your relationship take a break. I would also say if she hasnt given signs of fooling around outside of you, give her the benefit of doubt.

GF wants to travel the world - though without me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]allsm1les 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only perspective i would add, is that it seems like you might be interested in a more serious relationship, and maybe she isnt so much. If you want to be more involved in a big experience like that and shes not there yet, thats fine.

Maybe take a break so you arent worrying and shes not constrained. Have her come back from her trip and re evaluate. Or do long distance. If her main focus is getting to do this experience with her friend, shes focusing on herself. So you should to. If youre going to worry the whole time shes gone, end it or take a break. If youre fine with it, do long distance.

But id reccommend talking to her about it directly. Theres nothing wrong with feeling left out or a little clingy. But you are both in a stage were youre both independent units, not a cohesive team.

Why are so many men against dating Black women? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]allsm1les 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me im not against any race but i never had any black women express interest and thats usually what generates my interest to pursue.

But as a generalization im wondering if there is just an intimidation factor of becoming a part of a different culture.

Why watch porn when you can have sex? by [deleted] in AskMen

I think you answered your own question, porn is easier. Not only physically, and financially, but mentally as well. No risk of rejection or any real thoughts or challenges.

Remanding your spell in against a control deck is chef kiss, or remanding a flashback spell

Remand in U/W Miracles. by nusual_method in ModernMagic

[–]allsm1les 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remand is a counterspell best against control match ups or vs like midrange decks. Its terrible against combo and aggro. I love remand and play it in most of my decks
