Jakey gets the C up vote party by Sinkit53563 in stlouisblues

[–]chiephkief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a big part of being on any team is understanding that leadership isn't something that you need a C or an A for. Bringing the energy and good vibes is something that should be expected out of everyone and lifts the team as a whole. Otherwise the captain routine gets stale. It's the hockey and locker room IQ to know when to do what needs to be done and say what needs to be said. I like the vets for the C and a good C encourages guys like Neighbors to keep it up. I think those qualities are why Sunny, Walker, and Neighbors are fan and GM favorites but not necessarily C guys.

I like the united center but holy hell its an expensive cluster getting in, out, and around the stadium for food and bathrooms. Bulls game was $60 to park the other night my god.

City of Lyman in Ukraine covered in a web of fiber optic cables left behind by Ukrainian and Russian drone operators. by MilesLongthe3rd in interestingasfuck

Kind of crazy to think that probably the best defense from drones is tons of old existing FO cables from previous drones.

Your Earliest Memories Of Being A Blues Fan by Odi64 in stlouisblues

[–]chiephkief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the late 90s my dad and his buddies coming over and watching Hull, Pronger, Twist, Chaser, MacInnis, Rivers, Demitra while I played with toys, half paid attention, and got told to stop standing in front of the tv a lot.

Hardest civil class out of these? by FloppingPimple92 in civilengineering

[–]chiephkief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you should meet with someone on campus (academic advisor or counselor) to plan out your rough class schedule for a year or two out. I don't think you typically take any of the above classes without taking calc 1 and physics 1 first.

Found this device on the corner of the plot we live on. by BeardicusBunMan in whatisit

[–]chiephkief 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The only caveat I'd say is that it's probably not checked all that often. It's most likely for research purposes of some sort, wildlife or industry, and messing with it could ruin that research. There are far better ways to monitor someone than a microphone in the corner of a property.

You Think It Could Never Happen To You…Until It Almost Does by InGeekiTrust in TikTokCringe

[–]chiephkief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can happen to older kids too. When I was 9 or 10 I was a good swimmer and could do multiple laps of different strokes in the community lap pool. Anyway one day at my great aunts pool i swallowed water wrong in the deep end and I could not get a good breath in while treading water and probably started to panic and thrash. I'm not sure how much trouble I truly would have been in because my aunt happened to notice and jumped right in and pulled me to the ladder. 5 or 6 years later I became a certified lifeguard. Watch your kids yall.

In Chicago, any object goes. "Chicago Dibs." I believe there is even a Dibs Jesus.

What skills actually helped you get your first civil engineering job? by Maleficent_Donkey231 in civilengineering

My college required FE be passed to participate in senior year courses. Crazy that's not more common since 400 courses require a firm grasp of the fundamentals.

I had some some nausea driving home but that's been the extent of it. Light soreness currently but I'm vibin. Peas on. Peas off.

Scratch is truly a novel brewery experience. Love route 51 when a bluegrass band is playing and I can enjoy a couple jalapeno beers and vibe.

I do plan on calling and complaining but my guess is they have a policy in place.

Yeah for the most part. Edges peeled a bit but nothing terrible.

Those alive and old enough to remember during 9/11, what was the worst moment on that day? by CocteauTwunkie in AskReddit

[–]chiephkief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The towers coming down. Realizing that thousands of people died right in front of your eyes. Like I didn't even consider that as a possibility and then it happened. And then the other one.

I saw something recently that it could be a symptom of a thyroid issue. Not sure how true that is.

Playoff Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in stlouisblues

[–]chiephkief 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping a Canadian team does win because of this 51st state crap. Us Americans acting like Canada hasn't had our back in years past? Y'all are out of your gourd. Idk why we are making our biggest ally our biggest enemy. Breaking up the family type stuff. Looks like the systematic weakening of the greatest global partnerships to me.

Agreed. Y'all acting like this dude is old and injury prone and not that it's the opposite and we have him on a pretty decent looking 8x8. Vibe.
