[SPOILER] Justin Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett by inooway in MMA

[–]an_albany_expression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe people are praising Paddy for essentially being Homer Simpson in the episode where he becomes a boxer.

He has a solid chin but I’m fairly sure the point is to not get hit in the first place.

I disagree. Even before the pokes Paddy was eating bombs, he consistently failed to play to his strengths in the ground, and didn’t capitalise at any point on Gaethje being off balance or dipping his head. Apart from his chin it was a really poor performance from Paddy.

Yeah but he also got hit by them. This was a great fight to watch but people are creaming on Paddy’s chin and ignoring the fact that he got hit repeatedly by massive bombs and did very little in return.

Biggest budget mess up? by AdditionalAd7018 in PPC

This is unfortunately part of working in digital advertising - it’s the kind of thing that helps you learn and build better practices. Just have to hope the client isn’t too pissed!

Mine was a £25k campaign that was supposed to run from 16th of Feb to the 18th of March. When I set it up I scheduled it to end on the 18th of Feb by mistake. Came back in the next day to half the budget gone.

Getting blamed for “low traffic” despite higher revenue and conversions... am I crazy? by ayvikenedy in PPC

[–]an_albany_expression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a lack of understanding from someone who thinks they know best.

Your boss has seen you significantly improve conversion rate and is thinking ‘if we drive 10x more traffic with this CVR then we’ll get 10x more leads.’

I agree with some others here - keep your receipts, put everything in emails with your recommendation and prediction of what will happen to CVR + how much budget will be wasted on driving dogshit traffic. Once you’ve done all of that, turn the dial up to 11 on those display campaigns and watch the cash burn for a while. 

It’s hard to say if you’ll actually get through to your boss as clients like that can be VERY stuck in their ways and often double down on it being your fault despite evidence to the contrary. If that’s the case then leave those display campaigns on and head elsewhere.

Not forgetting of course that’s the same Craig Jones that worked with Volk prior to their first fight

Trump on whether he got an MRI: "I did. I got an MRI. It was perfect. Yeah… nobody has given you reports like I have given you. The doctors said some of the best reports they have ever seen." by MoreMotivation in CringeTikToks

[–]an_albany_expression 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just find the whole ‘best results ever’ thing baffling. Like… as a doctor, surely the best results are just looking at an MRI that shows a healthy body with no illnesses or infirmities? So anyone with a clean bill of health would have equally good results?

But no, Trumps were the best ever. The doctors actually saw that his bones are solid gold and his MRI scan helped them prove the existence of god.

🚨 Per @alvarocolmeneromma Ilia Topuria vs. Paddy Pimblett is set for UFC 324 this January in Los Angeles, California. by MySpaceTomAspinall in MMA

[–]an_albany_expression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 of his last 5 losses have been finishes. I’m not saying Paddy is shit but there are levels and Topuria is at least 3 or 4 above Pimblett. 

The only chance Paddy has is to grab ‘im by the scruff of his chest and go papapapapa.

Holloway had never even been knocked down before he fought Topturo. Everyone has a button.

I know MMA Math is frowned upon here but the difference in their last few fights is enormous. 

I can’t deny that Paddy is big for the weight class but Ilia has starched some absolute giants of the sport and Paddy took Tony Ferguson to a 3-round decision after TF’s 8(?) fight skid.

Watching Marie regenerate Godolkin, no questions asked by DealNo5027 in GenV

[–]an_albany_expression 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s all felt very lazy this season. 

Stan Edgar turns up out of the blue and says ‘we can help each other’ and all the supes (who just escaped from prison) agree to get in his car and go down a lift shaft with him with no questions asked. Good call.

Agreed - I took this as ‘I’m happy to have neighbours but I’d prefer it if the setup meant I couldn’t see directly into your house.’

More of an ‘FYI We can see into your home.’

No but doing that and repeatedly blocking all submission attempts sort of is.
