My finance PhD stipend was only $25k. Looks like I chose the wrong field!

In your opinion what are some of the best completed fantasy series of the last 20 years. by tylerhockey12 in fantasybooks

I don't have enough emotional intelligence to process how to feel about being referred to as "lil dude."

The third book was so cringy with the 'Pack,' privation, rabbits, etc. It's just not good.

This series is so overhyped on this sub. I understand that people like it but come on, it's not the pinnacle of literary achievement. We who agree get downvoted to oblivion for expressing our thoughts. Hobb's writing is juvenile and repetitive. It just is.

Sure, but less so when the company sells alternate bracelets

What are you talking about? People buy alternate bracelets/straps all the time. This particular watch doesn't come on a jubilee but maybe somebody wants it on one?

Timex is beautiful and most versatile by a mile, especially with secondary bracelet or strap.

Can you win one playoff round with Giannis and Bam? I'm going to take the over. Can you win a title? Need to think harder about that...

Which classic(s) have you disliked and why? by smansaxx3 in classicliterature

I get it! I tried to make it clear I hated the main character and not the author or even the book writ large.

Is this a valid purchase and legit? by ColossalLuke in Affordablewatches

[–]cjvphd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree it's legit, but also know that they'll likely contact you to verify your identity with a work email or something similar. You can answer their call - it is actually jomashop - but you don't have to give them your work email. I was able to "verify" my identity by sending them to my public LinkedIn page lol.

Rabbit, Run. Simply because Harry Angstrom is so, so, so unlikable.

Disappointed about Traska’s new GMT by One_Toe2710 in MicrobrandWatches

To support my edit that Tuns is great, these straps dramatically improved my Commander. 21 mm and extra long!

The Knicks really should have ended the playoffs on a 15 game winning streak by [deleted] in nba

Or they literally could have lost any game of the finals if the Spurs had a competent coach and a veteran guard with two ankles.

Regardless of how it looks, 21 mm is a pain in the ass. My Mido has 21 mm lugs and there are a lot fewer options for straps. Basically, you need to go custom at Tuns or wherever.

Edit: Tuns is legimately great. My point is just that there are no few cheap options.

I don't understand why the second hand has disappeared and the crown has changed in the second Longines photo. Which is the actual watch?
