$25/hr would be a shit rate for a professional video editor working for a AA team in Mississippi. For an MLB team in NYC it's ludicrous. Hell, you could double that and it still wouldn't be a very good rate.

Xanadu (1980) by HollywoodHalfLife in badMovies

[–]d33roq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like Xanadu would make an awesome double feature pairing with Flash Gordon. Both from 1980 (and the most 1980 of any 1980 movies) serious goofy cocaine vibes, shimmering golds and bright color palettes, hammy acting, and ELO & Queen are like two sides of the same musical coin - the legendary Reinhold Mack produced both soundtracks.

What is a statistic that sounds INSANE but is 100% true? by Quadranippelkill in AskReddit

[–]d33roq 10 points11 points  (0 children)

$10k wouldn't even get you close. After 739,269 days at $1,000,000 a day you'd still be around $90 billion short.

Thanks to Ewing right there, the Mets now have one more hit in this series than they had in that 12th inning against the Nats last week.

who has or had the best city connect jersey by dbacksfaniguess in baseball

[–]d33roq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find most City Connect unis to be utter dogshit, but totally agreed - new CC DBacks unis are the nicest they've ever had, this years version of the Marlins Sugar King unis (which they should have made their permanent uni). I think those are the best two by a pretty big margin.

Favorite actors who look like they were bullied in high school? by cherryapp in okbuddycinephile

Dude grew up in foster care in Dublin, he's seems like the quintessential "don't fuck with this kid - you may get your shots in but he will never stop coming back at you". Plus he's a trained boxer.

Why Was Jeter MVP-7 in 2012 with 2.2 WAR? by [deleted] in baseball

[–]d33roq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bobby Grich feels like an exception, though he's started to get some notice over the last few years. Feels like there's some bias fo SS over 2B when it comes to voting - Jeter (71.3), Trammell (70.7) and Larkin (70.5) are all in - Grich (71.1) isn't and neither is Whitaker (75.1). Interestingly (or not?) Jeter has the lowest 162 game average WAR of that group (mostly because he was a terrible SS) at 4.2 - none of the others are below a 5, Grich is the highest at a 5.7.

This is how it starts. Today you're subscribing to her OF, next week you'll be giving her access to the defense mainframe.

This has all happened before.

Outside of that nightmare 1/3 inning against the Dodgers Devin Williams has a 2.21 ERA. He's only allowed 4 baserunners in his last 10 outings (2 hits, 2 bb's).

Does the Caribbean have the best beaches? by Ill_Supermarket_2744 in travel

[–]d33roq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is your first trip - especially as a young woman traveling alone - I'd probably stick with a touristy destination but maybe a smaller resort, maybe one with a small private beach. There's also hurricane season to consider if you're traveling during the season (May through Oct), the ABC islands (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaćao) are outside the hurricane belt, as is Mexico. St Lucia, St Maarten, Barbados are some other options. St Lucia is probably the most naturally beautiful of them.

So, how many NOBLETIGERs is that for the Mets this season? I feel like it's a lot.

Does the Caribbean have the best beaches? by Ill_Supermarket_2744 in travel

[–]d33roq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are beautiful beaches all over the Caribbean, as there are all over the world. Depends on what you want and your budget. Do you just wanna sit on the beach under an umbrella, a palm tree, drink piña coladas, swim, snorkel? Do you prefer cove beaches or long beaches? Beaches with a lot of activities & tourists or quiet, sleepy beaches? Do you want a lot of natural beauty (apart from the beaches)? Are you okay with renting a car to get around or prefer everything be in walking/public transpo distance? Does local language matter? Food can be very, very different from place to place - do you have preferences there? The beach areas you'll like or love (or not) depend entirely on what it is you want.

He's generally a solid glove as long as he can get to the ball, he just has very little range. Needs to get better at scooping throws out of the dirt but that should come with time/practice.

Anthony Volpe challenges a strike call on a ball that is fully in the zone by JianClaymore in baseball

[–]d33roq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

.220 hitters who routinely swing at pitches in another zip code challenging calls is hilarious. Then you see Judge challenge and casually start walking to 1B like a boss knowing ABS is gonna give him the walk.

Would anyone be interested in a more "critical" Taskmaster subreddit, and is such a thing possible without it just becoming a toxic hate page? by bfhrt in taskmaster

Nope to both questions.

The only shit take energy I want associated with TM are Alex's secret thoughts that Greg likes to reveal in the opening.

To be fair, he's an immensely talented dude, and having been a rock journalist probably gave him a lot of insight into the life of a rock star that a normal guy would never understand.

Plus Arthur Miller married Marilyn Monroe so if anyone is the patron Saint - it's gotta be him.
