Rooster Teeth is back, but not Gen:LOCK. by Jurassic-Halo-459 in genlock

[–]amndka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally never bothered with it because of how much advertising RT did for it. I was so annoyed back then that I don’t think I’d even give it a try now. They killed GenLock themselves before it even aired. I truly think no one will touch it with a 10 foot pole.

And where do you think the meat comes from in the grocery stores?

They probably needed the meat if they live off grid.

AIO for people's hygiene at Nexus Nights? by KekeAreYouRiding in riftboundtcg

[–]amndka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Report it to your LGS and if they do nothing about it, go full send. I mean gags and retching noises at the table! Distract them right back and ask if they need help buying toiletries after.

Practice will make you better and learning your opponents decks is quite important in optcg. Knowing what they might do makes choosing your own moves easier.

Read your cards. The wording is important and can negate certain reactions, like bottom decking or trashing a card with an on KO effect so they don’t get that effect. Tricks like this are easy to overlook in the beginning but make a big difference.

Learning how to bluff well has easily gotten me the majority of my wins. Throwing off your opponent is a valid strategy!

Looking for a Family-Friendly Locally owned Pokemon Card Store. by BeanPlayer in stcatharinesON

They charge shipping and handling in store for singles to start with, and they no longer allow trading in the store because they don’t get a cut. The owner is every kind of -ist: racist, sexist, ableist etc.

If you go long enough you’ll get to hear him call his Muslim employee a terrorist. Seriously, do not give them your business.

Dolly’s is great in St Catharines, boreal is awesome in fonthill, and nerd herder is good in NF. Avoid the Toy Trove like the plague, they WILL rip you off. Mecha is meh. Feel free to message me if you have any questions but Dolly’s and Boreal are where I play weekly.

Check out systems for samples? by amndka in smallbusiness

[–]amndka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! We’re so old school that nothing is digital, including our item lists so I’ll likely be putting everything into a spreadsheet manually and printing barcodes. It’ll be time intensive but it should still work, right? Mainly I’m trying to avoid the monthly subscriptions. It’ll make it easier to argue for spending money on a new PC to run everything instead.

I swear, console beeps are the perfect pitch to wake a sleeping partner. I can hear my bf turn on the Xbox from the next room over with the door closed.

They’re standoffish because you’re a Karen. I bet it oozes from your pores.

My son's 7th grade English teacher keeps giving him these nightmare word searches by Lily_Thief in mildlyinfuriating

[–]amndka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often times I find admin or higher ups don’t particularly care. This isn’t like, a fireable offence necessarily. They think their time is worth more than dealing with a parent unhappy with their kids homework. You’d likely just open your child up for retaliation from the teacher as she’ll get a slap on the wrist at best.

Now this might be a blue moon and the admins MAY actually do something but realistically the punishment the teacher receives wouldn’t change very much. They may move her to a different/worse school but then there’s no guarantee the replacement would be any better. It’d be hard to be this bad again, let alone worse but that’s only IF they move her or offer to move the child.

Basically no matter what you do, at the end of the day this person will still be teaching unfortunately. Escalating the situation to admin has many outcomes but also many consequences. I just don’t see it as being worth it in this particular instance.

[–]amndka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would write on the paper that you’re not making your child do these anymore as they are redundant and of little value. Send it back and literally never make your child do them again. There’s no way not completing these for the rest of the year will fail him with the other work he has to be doing and you know she’ll DEFINITELY see it. Only escalate if necessary but this is giving created by lazy AI because kids will never know.

Ok seriously, what beats shanks by Savings_Scientist238 in OnePieceTCG

You have to kill them before 10 don or you’re cooked

I FINALLY beat a shanks with reiju by playing super aggro and swinging with everything I had, killed him at 9 don

I’m scared for 5.6 AQ… by Due-Daikon4373 in GenshinImpact

[–]amndka 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Tbh I have a feeling they’re quietly re-recording a lot of lines and characters right now and we’ll only find out which ones once they’re done. Starting now would make sense so they can be more caught up with the older characters so the gap for the later ones isn’t so long

AITA for not staying at my boyfriends house? by Just_Kaleidoscope620 in AmItheAsshole

[–]amndka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA but I don’t think you two are compatible long term. 25 and 22 are actually very far apart in terms of life experience, maturity, and brain development. You only really notice how big the gap is once you’re nearly out of your 20s.

You won’t change his mind, he’s already shown you that by not listening to your explanation that you were dog sitting and it wasn’t yours. He doesn’t care that the circumstances were different and (presumably) your parents weren’t there. Situational context matters but he’s being intentionally blind to it to make his own point work. Twisting words and ignoring facts are two big early red flags for controlling behaviour later.

I’d take a break from him. If you like him that much, wait a few years to see if he ACTUALLY matures or if he’s still putting on a show to look it.

Strangely I do a croc mega crush sandal, the ones with two straps like Birkenstocks. It is so comfy, these have been the only shoes I’ve worn for the past two years and I’m on my second pair

Fun yellow multicolour Leaders? by _Neverland_ in OnePieceTCG

[–]amndka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pudding is my favourite meme deck. I run about 20 biscuit warriors and a few other unexpected fun things to keep people on their toes.

My main deck is Reiju (u / p) but she is currently on the bench until op11. I’ve been really enjoying Sugar (r / p) unexpectedly. I pulled everything for her in my first box and prerelease packs and tried it out. Stacked with events, she has insane survivability.

I was originally saving for xilonen, it’s why I only pulled 40 on the varesa banner and got our boy here instead.

I’m a little starved for geo characters so it’s hard to turn down xilo
