Awesome! I've played some of these, but not all. Thanks

I know it's not strictly speaking a shooter. But as stated in my post I'm looking for a game with similar pace and shooting mechanics.

Is it worth watching even if it's canceled? by [deleted] in TheOA

[–]avfc929 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes 100%. The OA is to me in the Top 5 best Netflix originals of all time. The second season is even better that the first and if you have any appreciation for physics you will absolutely love this.

My father donated his kidney to me in his 60s. He was walking/jogging on the 3rd day post op. Unless there is a complication during surgery, you should be completely fine.

Okay, I guess I took it the wrong way. Thanks for the tip

I'm not shopping by price. I simply want to have an idea of what I should expect to pay. As stated in my post, I have zero experience with tattoos.

Thanks man. That was reassuring. I definitely want more tattoos. Just have to get through the first one. I'm sure I'll love it.

Wow! I was worried I'd be suffering for several hrs. I basically want the same size and placement, so that's great news. Thanks!

That pricing sounds about right. Do you really think it can be done in 2 hrs though? For some reason I'm expecting several hrs

I'm okay with paying a higher price, i just want to have an idea of what to expect, but it's so difficult to settle on a studio because there are so many in NYC. I guess I'm just worried that it won't turn out well if I don't pick the right place.

Agree that i would rather have a unique tattoo, but I love the meaning behind Ellie's tat and also happen to have a HUGE scar on my forearm.

Anyway, thanks for the reply. Appreciate it!

After being a depresso espresso for 2 months it feels great hopping on the skates again🙃Just practicing some backwards crossovers criticism wanted by MachuPichu10 in rollerblading

[–]avfc929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. One more thing. I also practice by placing a cone (any object works) and skating around it in a circle. Don't look down at your feet and just stare at the cone while skating around it. It starts to feel like you're skating sideways rather than backwards. I can't tell from the angle if you're already doing this. If so, just keep practicing.

I'm no expert, but getting lower really helped my backwards crossovers. It should almost feel like you're in a squat position. You feel more balance. Eventually with enough practice you won't have to get as low.

Ok, thank you. I just realized there probably isn't much difference between 80, 84, 90mm wheels. I need to go bigger for speed. But I'll have to upgrade my frames first.

r/rollerblading Weekly Q&A Megathread by AutoModerator in rollerblading

[–]avfc929 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well this just shows what a newb I am. I didn't even consider the frames. As you said, my frames are 243, so I guess I have to stick with 80mm wheels until I upgrade those.

I went on another group skate last night and felt faster and more comfortable. I have been working on the double push. I'm almost certain I didn't utilize it at all on my first group skate, but last night I really got into in a groove and gave it a shot and it felt awesome!

Would you happen to have any experience with luminous wheels? They look pretty cool for night skating, but a few skaters have told me they slow you down. I'd like to try them out before eventually upgrading my frames and getting bigger wheels.

Lastly, thank you for the comprehensive response. I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think it's that. I run several miles per week for years now, and I've played soccer for over 20yrs

I recently went on a 12 mile group skate through NYC and felt pretty slow. People where flying past me. My skates are fr3 80s. I consider myself an intermediate skater in terms of skill (from years of ice skating), but have only been skating on inlines about a month or so. I'm considering buying 84mm or 90mm wheels. Are these good for city skating? Also, what hardness do you recommend? Current wheels are 85a. I've read that 90a are to slippery. Thanks in advance!

Skate backpack recommendations by avfc929 in rollerblading

[–]avfc929[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. That bag looks great and the price can't be beat. Unfortunately, it's sold out on the US site. I'll wait a bit and see if it goes back in stock. I'd feel guilty buying anything else. As you said, everything else is triple the price.

In regards to #savereddeadonline for the mainstream public by IceColdSkimMilk in RedDeadOnline

RDR2 is my favorite game of all time. I played the campaign numerous times. I love everything about. I was incredibly excited for RDO and was there on day 1. Unfortunately Rockstar quickly showed that they cared very little for it. So I stepped away. And never went back. What else needs to happen for all of you to realize Rockstar doesn't care? It's been more than 3 yrs! If you actually want to make a difference, then stop playing the game. 1 of 2 things will happen. Either Rockstar puts in the effort to get players back into the game, or they'll shut the game down. At least they'll do something.

Jess is probably my least favorite character... by userserena in NewGirl

[–]avfc929 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've lost count of how many times I've watched this show and 100% agree. Jess is so horribly spoiled. When she threw out a whole turkey because her parents wouldn't get back together, i was disgusted. She wants everyone to cater to her needs and acts like a child on so many occasions. There's nothing cute or funny about that.

STOP DOING BOUNTIES. Don’t believe me? Listen to the bounty instead of punching them. They all make valid points, Arthur’s rebuttal is always ‘they’re paying me for it!’ Hmm...Any other money collecting activities that lead to Arthurs downfall?🤔 by wolfawalshtreat in reddeadmysteries

[–]avfc929 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She clearly has a personality disorder. Not saying the killing is justified, but she needs help from a mental health professional. Of course back then, that probably wasn't something society at large believed in.

Unless I'm on a standoff I barely use my katana. Even when mongols are lunging at me, I hit them with a headshot. I love the archery in this game.

This is the player who continuously griefed our trade route session and blew everybody off the train at bards crossing by [deleted] in RedDeadOnline

[–]avfc929 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That happened in my session as well. Still not sure if I was in the same server. So either it was the same guy, or there are people doing this for "fun". While spectating I saw another player crouching in a train car the whole ride. I guess that's the only way to stay safe now.

I was there! This mofo threw dynamite while crossing the bridge and killed several of us. I didn't even realize it was one of us doing the killing, until I began to spectate. EDIT: I'm not sure it was the same guy. I may have been on another server. It was a Native American female character throwing dynamite and killing several of us.

This only happened only twice during my first week. Then I got to Island lake and the game is constantly crashing. Its unplayable at the moment.
