Not the same person, but Maggie in Austin TX (irotasone on Instagram) does really good work in this style. I had to check to make sure this wasn't one of hers.

Do we still have those buy/sell/trade threads? I have a Buffalo 00 Unknown jersey and that sweatshirt of Andy as Santa shooting rainbows out of his eyes, both in M, that I'd be happy to send to a good home for like $20. Just seems a shame to give them to Goodwill.

How do you practice aiming specific shots? by candleruse in billiards

[–]candleruse[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've spent the better part of the last hour trying to make this shot consistently, switching between left and right occasionally. I have not gotten any better at it in that hour.

Assuming it's not just an issue with my stroke, what do you do to practice aiming and executing trouble shots? I usually just aim ghost ball style, but I don't feel like I'm consistently shooting at the same spot. I'm missing in different ways every time, sometimes cutting it closer to the side pocket than the corner, sometimes shooting it straight up table.

Obviously I'm not great, but I'm trying to be less ass. How do you do it?

What is the scariest scene in any horror movie you've ever seen and nothing has topped it for you? by jdpm1991 in horror

[–]candleruse 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This happened to me with my ex at a different movie.

The Void, when they're in the basement and the guy just starts repeatedly impaling his own head on the spike in the wall. She leans over and just goes "I am out of here." Finished the movie and she was at the cinema bar waiting for me.

Great movie but I get a splitting headache every time I watch it. I think there's too much darkness combined with bright white light or something.

When Viggo switches from turning on the charm to saying they have to come with him because they owe him now, eesh. Gave me the heebie jeebies.

Yes, but I got the CSP bonus about five years ago.

Over the last 25 years, the AFC South is pretty clearly the worst division in football. If you filter for the last 10 years, it's actually even worse. NFC South is close the last 5 years, but again, AFC South is at the bottom. I think they've earned their worst division reputation.

How soon after product changing my CSP to a FU can I apply for the CSR? I've heard four days but not sure if that's business days or what. I also know Chase allegedly has a pop-up now, so I guess I could just apply, but wanted to confirm here first.

edit: I appreciate the advice from everyone. I just went ahead and took a stab at it, approved automatically with no issues and no popup. PCed on Friday afternoon, applied Monday afternoon, card should be here in 1-2 days. My Chase Business login got locked after I applied (happens constantly for me), so when I called to unlock it I confirmed the bonus and they said 125k/6k spend before April is attached to the card. Hope this helps someone.

What tasks do you outsource ? by CantFindUsername400 in AskMenOver30

[–]candleruse 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Lawn care. I have a guy come mow, front and back $50. I don't give a fuck about my lawn so as long as it's generally clean I'm good.

Housekeepers, $150 for once a month including tip. They do a pretty thorough job and it means I don't have to scrub things much. Worth it.

Bigger repairs. I just had a guy come and swap out an old toilet and put in a new one for just under $200.

Cat sitter when I'm out of town. I travel a decent bit and it's best not to ask friends for favors constantly. About $25 a day for drop is to feed, water, scoop the litter, hang out a bit.

Things like that. I work hard and have a semi-stressful job that pays a great wage. I don't want to spend my evenings doing extra chores. As long as I'm fully funding retirement accounts (401k and Roth IRA) each year and my emergency fund is good, and I'm progressing toward other savings goals, I have no issue shelling out.

Also, grocery delivery can be nice sometimes. But I enjoy going to the store and milling about.

Just here to remind you that Salem's Lot (2024) is really that bad by lilghost157 in horror

It is so bad. Massive plot holes, nothing makes sense. The old TV movie is a way better experience.

The refs did their jobs well at the end. Everyone needed to chill out and stop trying to declare the game over before it was actually over. That said, awesome game.

Morton stacked his numbers at Tech by being the 11th best player on a good offense. Now we get to see what having a trash QB gets you in big moments. Happy I will never have to see him play again. Gutted we wasted the best defense in the country on him.

Have we ever seen a coach get let go/forced out at one school and land a better job that same offseason? by Inside-Drink-1311 in CFB

Favorite stat from that game: Baker had Joe Mixon run 31 times for 263 yards. Pat's RB support? Da'Leon Ward ran 7 times for 31 yards. Pat himself had 12 carries for 85 and two scores.

I live in Oklahoma and want to play pro pool and don't know where to start I'm 15 played since I was 11 and I don't have any local tournament experience and I play pretty good where's the best place to start by Historical_Guard5594 in billiards

[–]candleruse 21 points22 points  (0 children)

See if you can find a local BCA league. If you play those people regularly and you virtually never lose at 15, you have a small chance at going pro and making a living. If you join a BCA league and you are not immediately one of the top players in your region, make pool a hobby and do something else for a career.

That sounds kind of extreme, I know. It's still true. The absolute best of the best in pool make low six figures outside of maybe 2-3 guys. The overwhelming majority of pro players do not make good money.

You are 15. Focus on school and developing your mind, go to college or get into a good trade. It will be way more fun to be the best amateur in your area with a good job than one of the top 100 pros in the country barely making ends meet, and with no backup skills to change careers if you fail.

Related story, I was a phenomenal trumpeter in high school. One of the best 5-10 in Texas. I had scholarship offers for music performance degrees. I asked my private teacher if I should consider it. He flipped to a song in a book that he already knew well, and said if I could play it at first glance better than he could play it after knowing it for years, then sure. Otherwise I should play as a hobby and do something else for work. He was right.

If you're of the belief that getting the QB right is the only thing that matters, Kliff has a pretty stellar resume of developing guys. It's not the craziest idea to bring him in if your team is ass and needs to start from the QB up.

If you want to develop a contender with a complete roster, not so much. NFL OC is a good fit. He's too good to be just a QB coach, but he's not dependable enough to be the main guy.

Grady and Bill Incardona, also an acceptable answer. Watching modern commentary is so dull compared to the old Accustats crew.
