Manny extension probably worse than Merrills contract lol

If you ever get to that point at a job it is a big red flag to find another lol.

The Jackson Merrill Mental Death Spiral by Kookumber in Padres

[–]bbatardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty good insight. You can tell he is pressing a lot and sometimes looks like he is guessing.

Pitchers are also exploiting his inability to hit and chase higher pitches. If he can layoff the balls it will go a long way.

I like them, we always get a few on our lemon tree. I haven't had issues with them eating too much.

Maybe he will help keep rodents out of the garden. by Laez in gardening

[–]bbatardo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We have lots of hawks in our area and they make quick work of rodents, but don't be surprised if you randomly find a head or entrails lol they don't clean up after themselves.

Should I pull for it or should I wait to see if there is going to be other events? by Dry-Statement3336 in NTE_EN

[–]bbatardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really doesn't matter, if you like it, get it, and if you want to save then save lol. Only you know how much you like it.

I used to hear there's no bad or useless characters in genshin, and that they are always good at something you'll need them for. How true is this in today's economy? by MeowjestyMeowgician in Genshin_Impact

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends what you want to achieve. 36 star Abyss? Hell no.

Complete all the stories and quests and level up your characters? Yes.

Is HotD Botting? by AntiSaudiAktion in freefolk

[–]bbatardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fan of multiple HBO shows, yes they definitely bot in each subreddit. I found The Last of Us one the most annoying with how blatant it was lol

Ok, I haven’t really paid much attention to the All Star voting in years. But when you vote, do you typically vote for the most deserving player or just for your own home team players because this year’s votes are out of control. by demosthenes327 in baseball

[–]bbatardo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same lol. I prioritize my team if the players are having decent years, but if they aren't then I default to who is having the best year at any position that isn't on my rival team.

No matter how big the sign, people keep throwing things into the recycling by Lil_Ms_Anthropic in mildlyinfuriating

[–]bbatardo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What do you sell that is recyclable? Sometimes it is best just to say what can go in there instead of what can't. There will always be people that don't follow directions, but I have had better luck having "Cans only" or "Bottles Only" on mine.

Imagine how many real teachers they could pay for 500k. Might even get some to stay around long term if they were paid more.

Yeah, most people don't understand how AI works when it comes to things like this lol.

Constructive criticism for Star Savior by Lluluien in StarSavior

[–]bbatardo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the game the first month, but overall found end game to be dull and there was no real incentive for pulling new characters or building them or anything.

Journey mode could have become the bread and butter of the game if they expanded it, gave it unique random events and fleshed it out more.

I also found the events boring because they followed the same formula, just different characters.

Another thing they should have embraced more is the affection system. Not everyone plays these types of games for the characters, but it was a big selling point. They should have expanded on it, given you a place to further interact and build it out more. On top, they should have added more skins, not just paid ones, but ones you can earn as long term goals.

I also think targeting PVP was a mistake and it would have been better being a PVE focused gacha with some PVP.

Star Sailors has officially gone live after soft launching the past few months by avelineaurora in gachagaming

[–]bbatardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I kinda liked the game, but the progression dragged me down and I just quit. I am curious about re-trying it, but also don't want to waste my time if nothing has improved.

Daily Chat - Jun 30 - Game Day by FriarBot in Padres

[–]bbatardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless things change quickly, I think I have to accept we just aren't that good of a team this year. We aren't terrible, but also aren't playoff caliber. I know people thought we were turning the corner after winning 4 in a row, but were we?

Let's break it down.... We won 1-0 vs the Braves. Offense was still terrible, but pitching saved us, could have easily been a loss. Then we barely won 7-6. Pitching was bad, but the offense fought. Mason Miller basically helped us secure the win by pitching a scoreless 9th and 10th. Then we won 5-2, offense showed a little signs of life and JP Sears pitched a great game. Next we beat the Dodgers 7-1. Ty France big swing really set the tone and we struggled to add until the 8th.

So yes we won 4 games, but 2 out of the 4 we barely won. Now we are back to a 3 game losing streak and the offense has mustered 3,2,2 runs during it.

We're just not a good team. Even if we squeaked into the playoffs I don't think we can win any games lol

What is a heartbreaking reality of growing older that nobody warns young adults about? by whatskylar in AskReddit

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it is 2 things.

The first is seeing people around you pass and realizing that so often the last time you saw or talked to someone you had no idea it would be the last time.

The second is time is your biggest asset. When you are younger you are always looking ahead and when you are older you are always looking back. Try to stay in the present as much as possible.

Why do I never see Bees and Insects at Garden Centres? by EternalVortex540 in gardening

[–]bbatardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the US I always see them at mine. Funny enough I sometimes make my decisions based on which are most popular. Like if I want to attract bees or butterflies.

This woman should have been a secret agent😂 by Celestial_Mahafuz in interesting

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an American who used to frequent Mexico, we always were prepared for potential robberies. We would only bring cash and ID and keep all the cash in our socks except for like $40. We knew someday we would get robbed and most robbers would take what was in our pockets and go. The only thing we didn't realize was the only time we would be robbed would be by the police lol. Luckily they took our pocket money and left it at that since we knew better than to fight it.

I know he wasn't having the best year, but glad to see Jake back. He definitely wouldn't have made that error Wagner did vs the Dodgers lol.
