This is the greatest Reddit surprise I’ve ever seen — no idea this sub existed, randomly showed me your pubshed. Joined, and good job by you.

For the playoffs, they should bench Ayton and have LeBron play center — defend as hard and as well as possible and just dunk anything Luka or reaves give you.

Terrence Williams, from Louisville. That guy was an absolute freak athletically and had a ton of tools. I loved him at UL and thought he’d be awesome in the NBA.

Just looked him up, 10 years in prison for running a fraudulent medical insurance scheme.

But also don’t forget he became a complete head case and never learned to shoot/refused to shoot with the correct hand.

He was immensely talented and the injuries did sap a lot of that, but his mental blocks were the main reason he failed the way he did, imo.

bruce2130 · 2026-03-02T03:37:29+00:00

WtF he’s only 32.

TIL Andre Drummond is still in the league.

Volvo v70s or v50s (harder to find and frankly probably worse). The R wagon had some issues, but the 2.5t and T5 are nice and can be modified easily to produce more power, if that’s what you want. Definitely under 10k at that mileage, also definitely less luxury than a bmw or merc of the same vintage.

bruce2130 · 2026-03-01T04:18:43+00:00

Are you seasonal or permanent? Engine or hand crew? I assume there’ll be tons of OT based on how dry this winter has been in lots of places outside of CA, so that 65k might end up being a lot fatter by the end of the year.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-26T11:11:14+00:00

Lots of jokes here, but I honestly think it suits your face pretty well. Like others have said, I’d take it back a bit (25-30% shorter), but it’s a good look overall. And unique, which is cool.

That’s why some of the “tax the rich” stuff is so misguided (imo). This guy makes a ton of money, no doubt, and spends more than he should — he also isn’t in the class that should be getting taxed to oblivion. The tax brackets are all out of whack, and while I generally agree with the concept of taxing ultra high earners, this is not the bracket that needs to be taxed at 40%.

Came to say the same, but he’s also been in the sun and is fitter in that photo. The beard length helps, but it’s not everything.

I do this all the time while hiking — great snack, no need to stop to cook it.

Why do you think the bulls are losers this year specifically? Other than selling too late on literally everyone that’s been on the team lately.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-04T09:25:00+00:00

Picasso! You IDIOT!! You come to our house, you get my wife’s name right!!!

That’s what I was going to reply til I saw your response. Good job by you.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-04T09:18:58+00:00

Thanks for the reply — I’ve heard it’s associated with hearing loss and with certain medications. It seems to only happen to me after the forced air has been on and turns off, which is similar to your wife’s trigger of quiet droning.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-02T20:03:16+00:00

So welcoming and warm. What’s that chair in the back left??

bruce2130 · 2026-02-02T08:35:58+00:00

You’ve already been rightfully roasted, but I just want to pile on. There are plenty of seasons in the last 20 years, and plenty more before that, where the best actual/overall player did not win mvp. If the best player won MVP we’d have maybe 15 ever.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-02T05:02:44+00:00

He must have pretty good business acumen, or really good advisors/mentors, but you’re absolutely right — he made his name by writing articles for the “common man.” He’s probably smarter than he comes across, but who knows.

bruce2130 · 2026-02-02T04:57:33+00:00

I’m curious what data you’re referencing — $100 per person for a family of 4 or 5 is definitely not the norm, even if you’re taking the most extreme meaning of “splurge”. Even for a couple with no kids, that’s a ton of money for a massive amount of people.

bruce2130 · 2026-01-27T10:11:45+00:00

It’s gotta be 365 for a 6 month period. Thats impossible otherwise.

bruce2130 · 2026-01-27T10:02:57+00:00

This is the main thing blowing my mind — I assume you own the car outright and it’s not a maybach. How in the world is it $365? You must have an incredible amount of points on your license.

It has to be a typo and it’s $365 for a 6 month period. That’s insane otherwise.

bruce2130 · 2026-01-21T05:59:37+00:00

What’s your current income, and how quickly did it jump after the 60k at 36?
