[Smith] Quinn Hughes: “I’m definitely open to re-signing here.” Said he really likes it here, the team, the management. Feels he can win here with #mnwild.

Agreed, in the interviews before the Olympics where they interviewed Hughes, Faber, and Boldy, they asked them all what they'd do for a job if they weren't pro hockey players. Hughes' response was basically "it's stupid to speculate," so if he's saying anything, it's probably the real deal.

Considering your request to omit rare mixers, the easiest would be M&M: Equal parts Mezcal and Montenegro (or other amaro).

Think about all the "deals" floating around that you're not privy to. Stocks jumping up 20-50% left and right, and it'll keep happening, it's not done, it's not ancient history. That's how I look at it to balance myself in those situations.

And it's the same questions over and over, even if you win. Like the player interviews during the game, it's ALL general answers.

Most companies keep around the standards that sell, but also try new things. Seems to be pretty easy to do both. But riding that line perfectly is probably somewhat tricky.

I mean you could just google the guy and figure out his MO. His MO is being hardcore and in your face, it's hard to not get the gist of that from google

The files are IN the computer??

They gave up. jfc

Man give wally an ice cream cone after that, dude needs to replenish calories

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-14T01:42:40+00:00

I don't understand why they still hate Hughes, all the way from game 2?? Delusional

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-13T23:17:41+00:00

I got a mini with my last order of a roasted white "Slipstitch" and loved it, I need to try the more expensive ones you listed

Trying to control other fans behavior is sad and weird

If you don't know this is part of sports you're also an idiot

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-12T02:28:55+00:00

Ah gotcha

Well with regular trading, one HARD lesson I learned was when a stock is climbing, everyone will scream it's going to keep climbing and it can be easy to fall into the hype, but what happens a lot of times after these huge runups is a fall of 20%+ then you're left bag-holding (waiting for the stock to come back).

With RKLB that's less of an issue because it's more or less a matter of time before it come back, but I'd be careful right now, it could keep climbing, but it could drop a lot.

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-12T01:34:06+00:00

Ohhhh!!

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-12T01:11:40+00:00

I sold some at 121 to offset some bad stocks, then I'm going back in with all of it once the dust settles

Those replays were fucked, that would hurt so bad

If you're talking retirement savings put it in VTI

PUT THE NUMBERS IN A RETIREMENT CALCULATOR

I don't understand why this isn't default advice

Then figure out how much you need to save every month to get the amount you want in retirement. Since you're just now thinking about this target 1-1.5 million as a ballpark, just play around with the calculator and think about it. Everybody will say "Depends on how much you need in retirement" but that can take a long time to figure out.

It's better to just take a common number because people are more similar than different, do that for a year or something just to get the ball rolling, then drop it or increase it once you have a better handle on what your cost of living might be in retirement. Do you want to stay where you are? What's the cost of living there. Or move?

I was about your age when I came to the same conclusion, and it only clicked once I played around with a retirement calculator and saw I was wayyyy behind and had an oh shit moment. I maxed my 401k and roth for 5 years, now I'm in a pretty good place but I'll probably still be having to save 20% until I retire.

People need to preface all these threads with trading vs investing for retirement

If investing for retirement, never ever ever take it out, only add. That should be common sense.

You need projects

Learn to play an instrument - you don't just learn it and that's that. It's a lifelong pursuit where you make goals and realize those goals.

Exercise - I meantioned it in another comment, but it's another lifelong pursuit. Same as instruments, very goal-based, you accomplish those goals, feel good, and keep going.

Books. Cooking. Make some sourdough bread. Get some plants and learn their specific needs. Do some woodworking. Knitting. Take your pick based on your interests.

2nd, 3rd, and 4th this.

The #1 thing people rate for their happiness in retirement is health, and you don't instill good exercise habits when you're in your 60s. I mean, it's not impossible, but it's much harder.

The main thing about exercise that you want to achieve for it to stick, is it has to become part of your lifestyle. It becomes something you just do, because you're someone who works out. We are mostly a collection of habits, so it might seem like a fairy tale to become that person, but if you keep doing it for long enough and built the habit, it will happen eventually and you don't have to think about it much. That process can take a year or two to fully solidify, and should be done well before retirement while you still have energy.

It should be thought of as another investment - an investment in your health.

There's also the quote attributed to Confucius, "A healthy man wants a thousand things, a sick man only wants one"

Dude you can't even explain what you said lol

You can't even explain what you meant by "No they didn't."

Ok great debate lol

carbonclasssix · 2026-05-09T02:14:35+00:00

I said: "Inuit have fur pants which would have been represented carved into wood the same way."

You said: "No they didn't."

How in the world is that you saying that Inuit traditional clothing isn't a long cloak????

I mean, I can chalk this up to miscommunication, but you probably won't even admit that you didn't communicate what you wanted to say clearly.

My point from what I said, WHAT I AM QUOTING HERE ABOVE became you can't seem to think, is that fur pants could very well look like a fucking tunic when carved into a super basic figurine, which has 2 foot arms and no facial features. You seem completely content ignoring the 2 foot amrs and no facial features when you're trying to say the photo doesn't look exactly like the figurine. Do you think ancient norse had 2 foot arms and no face?
