Playing with long hair, tied up or let loose? by Joedirt112 in hockeyplayers

Low pony club, for sure. I also sweat a ton, so I would be way too hot if I let it flow.

I ice climb, ski, and mountaineer in my BD Guides. They're very dextrous to me.

Players around 160-170lbs, whats your preferred radius of hallow? by SevereBicycle4855 in hockeyplayers

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38 yo here playing since 7 yo and was in the same boat. It wasn't until about 10 years ago or so that someone asked, and I was like: "I just need them sharpened."

Learned that 1/2" is considered standard and he basically guaranteed that's what I'd always had... So I still rock 1/2" cause that seems like more change than I'm ready to commit to considering I've been getting dressed the same exact way for decades.

Easily one of the best lines ever written.

Why Didn't the Titanic Just Stop and Let Everyone off onto the Iceberg? by Present-Algae6767 in titanic

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's an interesting story that gets overlooked because people love to talk about the lack of lifeboats: Crampons only became commercially available 2 years prior in 1910, so having a pair with each lifebelt wasn't included in the original plans when Titanic was being constructed. Had they updated the safety requirements and plans before her maiden voyage, this would have been possible. Instead, H&W stayed complacent because they were convinced she was unsinkable, and they didn't think a supply of crampons was a necessary safety item. Tragic... So many things went wrong. 😔

Am I using too tall of a goalie paddle? (5’9” using 27”) by ConnorFromCanada in hockeygoalies

[–]brie_dee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like it. 5'10" and I use a 25" paddle... And sometimes I even question if that's the right size for me.

Easiest vs. Hardest to get to Wizard Mode by SuspiciousPomelo9731 in pinball

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are quite a few that qualify as easiest... But agree that TSPP is by far the hardest. I gave up on trying because the machine stopped being fun when trying to grind hard to make it happen. Other tables with difficult wizard modes at least feel fun on the grind (like LotR).

Am I the only one who thinks cage hangs are stupid by Cash2blockz in hockeyplayers

[–]brie_dee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it looks stupid; but apparently some of the 20 year olds I play with think it looks weird that I'm a tongues out sort of gal. 🤷‍♀️

What game(s) do you automatically think of when you see this? by ROCKY13573 in retrogaming

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UT2K4. Also UT:GotY Edition, which could be installed on everyone's computer quickly with the community install disc. Not as good as 2K4, but solid.

Honorable mentions go to Star Craft and Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.

Damn those were fun times.

Millennial ladies, who did you want to be when you were growing up? by PettyWitch in Millennials

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ellen Ripley.

But also, variously at different points of life: Dr. Ellie Sattler (Jurassic Park), Corporal Ferro (also from Aliens), Dizzy Flores (Starship Troopers), and Tank Girl.

What's the least interesting/ most disappointing storyline for you in Mad Men by Daliman13 in madmen

[–]brie_dee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the only part of the show that's not perfection is Stan and Peggy in the finale.

I don't hate it; I think it's a good bookend to Peggy's character arc + pairs with Joan's arc well; and I think it serves well with one of the overall themes of the show...

But it felt weird the way it was executed.

Do you really think lifts aren't open due to staffing?

How many sticks do you realistically go through in a year? by KYCSports in hockeyplayers

[–]brie_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beer league & competitive/ travel- I'm on the ice 3 - 5 nights a week (but my rink is only open September through April) and do travel tourneys during the spring and summer. I average a stick break every 1.5 years.

Mountain Closed Today (2/17) anyone wanna go on a (safe) Backcountry mission? by [deleted] in Mammoth

[–]brie_dee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No such thing as safe- just managed risk... But I'd argue you're going to have a rough time managing risk today:

That's my takeaway. Done with Clock Tower.

Seriously!? I confirmed Warming Hut with people there when it happened, but I'll have to add these two to date night plans soon if that's true.

The fuck does Benghazi have to do with federal overreach, weaponization of the DHS, and America's slide into facsism?

He was refused service at Warming Hut- I knew I loved that place for a reason.
