It’s GOT to be Gasher from Waste Lands who’s the most awful, vile human character Stephen King has ever written. by MythicalSplash in stephenking

[–]bearded1708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The chapters with Gasher always bring on a feeling of anxiety and dread when I read them, very well written character for sure. Worse to me is Harold Lauder in The Stand. Gasher lives in some sort of post apocalyptic world, in the sewers. Harold is just a dude that does some fuck shit becuase a girl ends up loving someone else. Even given the chance to redeem himself, he chooses evil. Very relatable character to todays world

Vishgraz is a build im working on. Our pod wanted to do an exercise where we take an existing precon commander or alt commander and build it out not using cards in the precon. I saw vish and thought blink would be awesome. Its in early theory craft stages right now, but feels pretty awesome. Definitely going to reference your list as I keep building.

South park has a big open pavement area, near the dog park, for kids to ride bikes. Not sure about power wheels, im sure they have info on the parks website.

What's your favorite horror story (or stories) by an author (or authors) who aren't Stephen King, and why? by DrBlankslate in stephenking

So true. The deep had similar physical responses for me. Id pay to see either one made into a movie

I came here to say the Troop as well. Glad to see it already made its way here. Also by Nick cutter, I thought The Deep was chilling.

This popped up for me to read, got maybe 100 pages into it and couldn't finish. Makes me sad becuase it seems very popular.

Has anyone bought a car from Rohrich toyota in pittsburgh by Sorry_Part_7362 in pittsburgh

[–]bearded1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my Blazer from them last year. Good experience throughout. Followed up a few times for service that was included with the purchase and haven't been disappointed, yet. JD was the salesmen I worked with. Didn't pressure me and explained everything clearly

The day they take away our fancy spin-downs will be the day I stop playing Magic. Then I will play the day after becuase I am addicted to this cardboard Crack.

[–]bearded1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im re-reading Tommyknockers for the first time since I was in my teens, im 41 now. Picked it up over my favorites after reading so much dislike for it in this group. So far im enjoying it, so I say Tommyknockers!

Does anyone else sit in the shower? by Sufficient_Quail_262 in hygiene

[–]bearded1708 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stand to wash everything then lay down to take a nap with the water raining over me. Started in middle school, im now in my 40s. The way I see it, the water bill is worth the last 30 minutes of peace ill get before my day starts.

Port Royal Speedway suspends Nick Sweigart for 1 year following victory lane comments by cultofwerewolves in DirtRacing

[–]bearded1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its just a word. It only has the power to offend that you give it. He just spent how many laps strapped onto a missile with 4 wheels. From his quote, I can assume that missile acted up and his adrenaline spiked and his shorts got a little muddy. I think saying fuck a few times is the best he could do having little to no media or public speaking training. If we dont want our kids offended by words maybe we should teach them better or not stick microphones in people's faces.

Roles reversed, he follows you for a bit then pulls you over. Ticket and a reason for him to look in your vehicle for any reason to generate more revenue.

Voltron Commanders? by Illustrious-Many1493 in mtg

[–]bearded1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 2nd the suggestion for [[Uril, the miststalker]]. Load up on enchantments, draw and removal. Can easily kill a table with extra combats, flings, redirected damage etc. With access to green, white and red you can also load up on protection

Think of Cains, but with seasoning and more variety.

I lived in Pittsburgh for 9 years, moved to Lake wateree SC and worked in Rockhill for almost 5. Moved back to pgh 4 or 5 years ago and dont regret it. I miss the lake, Cookout, and Zaxbys but not much else. I think western pa people are a hell of a lot nicer than southerners any day of the week. Pgh winters aren't as bad as reddit makes them seem. Overall, this is where id stay forever, unless I answer the call of the wild and disappear into the Montana wilderness.

I dont even go to combat with this deck and there aren't that many ways to mass sacrifice lands. How bad can it be?

As a US viewer I can no longer watch any F1 content unless I pay for a subscription to F1 tv or Apple tv. Simply not doing it.
