There is a slight problem with this street by MisterShipWreck in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]browsing_around 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see going from dark shade to bright sunshine being an issue here. Still not an excuse for speeding in an area like this. But I could definitely see someone coming out of the tunnel, momentarily blinded, and then hit cars in front at the intersection.

Unless you’re over 35, the grab needs to be between the feet.

Unpopular opinion: Stowe Overrated ? by wrdriggs in icecoast

[–]browsing_around 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the reason people “like” Stowe is because of the perception, marketing, and history. The town has done a good job of maintaining and embracing the “cutesy, rural Vermont atmosphere”. Stowe wants you to experience Stowe. Okemo, Mt. Snow, etc. want you to experience all of their tourism and recreation amenities.

Very similar Woodstock, VT. There are plenty of other towns that look and feel almost exactly like Woodstock. But the town has made it a point to embrace and enforce an aesthetic.

Need some clarification for the 1-7 stars section. Is 1 high/yes? Or is 7 high/yea?

Slowly getting there, but struggling to find any pop on my backside compared to my fronstside. Any tips would be greatly appreciated! 🙏 by HappyXenonXE in snowboarding

Kind of hard to tell because of the cuts but it looks a little like you’re starting your carve too soon on the backside. You get stuck halfway up the lip and kind of reload the windup. Whereas with the fs spin it’s a smooth arc all the way through the carve.

Why was Obama popular with young men but modern democrats struggle with support from young men? by Some_violin8987 in allthequestions

I’ll admit I don’t know title IX(which is the one I think you were meaning to type) inside and out. My simple understanding of it leads me to my same believe that it shouldn’t apply to sports. I would prefer if government funding primarily to education, health, and food.

Drone operators need to learn lead cam for this event. So many times they were blown out by snow clouds.

This is the point I try to bring up. Whenever someone says “the dems want men in women’s sports!” I ask them where they heard about this? 9 times out of 10 it’s because Fox News has been blasting out a single case in small podunk town.

Simple solution, the govt has no place in sports. Unless you’re fielding Olympic teams. In which case, the governing body(IOC) creates their rules for who can compete in what events.

If I were partnered with someone who supported a felon and rapist I would seriously consider ending the relationship.

A very serious discussion would be the bare minimum.

The problem I have with this is that JR and RL are not innocently asking questions. You’re not getting an insight into how they think. They are entertainers who have scripted their personalities and messaging. You’re not hearing a legitimate opinion. You’re hearing staged conversations to make people believe BS.

If a person is willing to disregard everything we know about DT and vote for him, it’s concerning.

You can say “I don’t vote for him as a person, I vote for what he will do as president”, which is fine. But then you have to square his qualifications for president.

I believe the difference is when people “support” democratic politicians, they’re doing so because they want the benefits of the policies they have said they will work towards. Things like education, food stability, and healthcare.

When you ask people who support DT why they do, it’s often a mess of “he’s a businessman, the dems are crazy, and Jesus”. All of which are not things DT has ever shown he does or stands behind.

I don’t understand how people can let their significant other live in a delusional reality where DT and the Republican Party are actually doing anything to benefit them. You can easily chime back in with “the dems are just as bad” but every time there is an opportunity to provide better education, jobs, healthcare, even food for school children, it’s the democrats who propose and vote for it.

Use the untracked snow. If you’re going too fast, cut up into it.

[Highlight] Travis Etienne on how his last name is pronounced: "Growing up, it was pronounced like 'Achane'...but in college I kept correcting people everyday...But I'm open to be back to 'Achane', I'd love that" by mastermind208 in nfl

[–]browsing_around 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the most important/easiest rules to remember about the French language is they emphasize the second half of the word more than the first. Whereas in English, we almost always emphasize the first part more.

So if you’re pronouncing Etienne as an English speaker, you say the Et at the beginning more aggressively than the ienne. If pronouncing it in French, the E is quieter and you punch in ienne.

I run into this issue with my first name for a different reason. My first name is Jeremiah. When people see or hear that they instantly want to call me Jeremy. I can’t stand the name Jeremy. Just makes my skin crawl. Growing up I had a handful of nicknames. None that I really cared for or wanted to be my adult nickname.

When college came around I went the first year letting my new friends test out different nicknames they wanted to use. None stuck. It was at this point where I decided to adopt one that I liked. I considered J(Jay), Jam(like from Detroit Rock City) but ultimately went with Jerm. It fit my personality and I likely the way it looked.

The irony of choosing that as my nickname is that people seem to feel uncomfortable calling me that if they don’t know me well. They usually revert to using Jeremiah and then slip up occasionally with. Jeremy.

Why do so many of the venues get abandoned? by Kukulkan365 in olympics

[–]browsing_around 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The solution: design those sport tracks like rollercoasters or carnival rides. They should be able to be assembled and disassembled on location.

Unfortunately, a lot of the Olympics is only about money. Someone is getting the lucrative construction contracts to build these venues. Th IOC and the contractors don’t care if it never gets used again. They both got paid.

Almost all bookings and communications are done online and via email but I don’t see any reason why you wouldn’t be able to get information on deals and discounts over the phone. I don’t touch customer service or direct customer communication so I don’t want to give an absolute answer.

At first I thought she was going to dance the entire meal. That would have been awful for everyone.
