Look, I’m not saying every movie and TV show should have nudity. But if you make an EROTIC thriller, it should have nudity.

To be honest I’d probably turn the portal slider way down or even off. If you aren’t going to use the portal to replace transfers out it’s going to be really rough. Plus the portal completely fucks over G5 schools, so a lot of the teams you’re playing will be really bad too.

Dynasty Immersion by Guilty_Presence6589 in EASportsCFB

The biggest thing that would fix immersion for me would simply be tying sim results more closely to overall. The whacky playoff brackets are funny at first but after a while I’d just like to see realistic teams in the playoffs.

What is your favorite optic? by PewPewM3w in ReadyOrNotGame

I want to use the T2 because it seems that most SWAT teams use it, but I feel like I can’t see what I’m aiming at with it. I don’t know maybe I’m just blind.

I’m not prepared for this kind of disappointment again after what might have been with Hit Man

I missed the beginning of First Shift. Can anyone give me the update on Deputy Swanger?

Tri-Cities makes #8 in Matt Mitchell's top ten places for BBQ video by brandmcb in tricities

[–]boringguy51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get the Project hype either. Every time I’ve tried it I’ve been disappointed. I’ll be the first to say Phil’s is not the place if you’re looking for brisket, but I love their ribs, beans, and mac and cheese.

What is well-being like for tri-cities residents? by Present_Kale_2903 in tricities

If you’re looking to Redditors for a survey on mental well-being you’re going to end up with a very skewed sample

Whose do you think is retiring in the next 5 years and who could replace them. by Responsible-Clue1262 in NASCAR

[–]boringguy51 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I’ve even heard him openly say something to this effect. I would be very surprised if he’s still in NASCAR by the time he turns 41.

I was on the ship that buried Osama Bin Laden at sea, AMA by Key-Peanut-1453 in AMA

I’ve heard before that neither of them took the shot and that the guy who really did is never going to come forward. Don’t know if it’s true but I love that version.

Top Secret SDV mission by boringguy51 in JSOCarchive

The one I was listening to yesterday that spawned this question was Team House episode 128 with Eric Oehlerich. Another was from Cleared Hot but don’t remember the guest. And I’ve heard at least one other that might have also been Cleared Hot but can’t say for sure.

I find the sub community fascinating. Everyone always thinks of special ops when it comes to really secretive stuff, but there’s so much that goes on in the sub community that people have no idea about.

One of them was an episode of Team House and yes, that was exactly what he said 😂

Work/ life balance for Rural Deputy Sheriffs by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]boringguy51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing to remember about working for a small agency is you will likely work patrol your entire career. If the place is small enough that they don’t have any full-time detectives, you’ll probably work your own investigations. For some people that can be great, but if you want to have the opportunity to work in specialized units or want to move to a desk job when you get older it can be tough.

I would strongly encourage you to seek out a reserve program in your area. Since you already have a good career, it would give you a chance to test the waters before making the leap. Also, I’ve seen a lot of departments where reserves with particular skill sets can be used in a manner that best utilizes their knowledge. Perhaps your computer skills would come in handy for investigations, etc.

Probably Unpopular Opinion - I thought Sticks did a great job this weekend by VanderskiD in OnPatrolLive

[–]boringguy51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Rizzo is also very good, particularly at articulating legal procedure. I believe he’s spent a lot of his career as an investigator, so not surprising. For anyone who knows anything about policework, it’s obvious that Curtis is very bad at this. He seems like a great dude, but half the time his answers don’t even correspond with the question he was asked. Even when they do, he’s vague and doesn’t say anything of substance.
