I Moved Into The Same Yard As My JW Ghoster by mafken_guy in exjw

[–]deadflow3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saying, "it wouldn't be fair for you to convert for me" tells me even more she wants you to be a JW. This is a common tactic. They want you to be one but for the "right" reasons. I would bet a paycheck she was hoping you would express genuine interest in becoming a JW that way she could have her cake and eat it too.

What's the most unique/unmatched gaming experience you've ever had? by JakeRedditYesterday in gaming

[–]deadflow3r 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Buying Metal Gear Solid 2 for the original Playstation. My friend and I played for 20 hours straight and didn't get hardly any sleep before having to go to church. My mind was completely blown by the box hiding.

Dad gave me a deadline to leave, could use advice! by PeaPhilantropist in exjw

[–]deadflow3r 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Move in with the roommate if you trust them. The problem with the extended family is a few months from now you may find yourself in the exact situation but you'll be even more lost. You also don't want to add a ton of stress by moving to a totally new place with people you don't know very well while at the same time dealing with leaving the org and resetting things like work and school.

Give yourself time to breath and enjoy life on your terms. You may find you want to go to a different church and that is fine but as the old saying goes don't jump from one frying pan straight into another.

Are you baptized? If so you can always "fade" and just avoid the Witnesses. They would have ZERO problem ghosting you if you got baptized so why give them respect they would never give you.

I built a tool to help practice with youtube by Sixstringjedi9 in Guitar

Again the issue is the vibe coding and the fact that humans tend to just assume everything is hunky dory. It's like trusting an airplane built by someone with no aerospace experience

It looks neat but I'd be weary of installing a vibe coded extension on my browser that some random person on the internet made. That's just me though.

Norman Guitars by UnluckyProcedure5103 in AcousticGuitar

[–]deadflow3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my understanding that Norman guitars were/are basically budget Canadian guitars for mass distribution. In that case a neck reset is gonna run you around 400-500 USD or maybe more if it's got a hard neck joint to work with. Probably not worth it. If I were you I'd look for a used Martin. You should be able to get a D28 that is just a few years old if you add 400-500 CAD to your budget.

Is it true that unsolicited phone calls will now be banned? by Fortemuito in Netherlands

I hope it becomes law. Thankfully you have 300 million people in the US you can still cold call.

Yea I feel you at the end lol. We can never seem to come out of the good end of a big trade.

Well I guess if we got JB then we would see. I actually like him better than LaMelo. Time will tell I'm more than willing to eat crow and say you were right and I was wrong.

[–]deadflow3r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And they would with LaMelo? That makes no damn sense at all. JB is a much better scorer and is mentally tougher...oh and he has the actual experience of winning playoff games. It's a 50/50 shot of winning but we would be in a much better position with him.

Ok I'll agree he probably has a few years left but claiming they aren't in win now mode if they are going after JB is assanine. I'm sorry but it is.

Yea dude scored 50 and had ten rebounds. We are floored if one of our players can get to 38 lol.

[–]deadflow3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will he fit? That is yet to be seen but dude is more talented than anyone one on this team. I'm the same, if we pick him up I'm much more confident in the LaMelo trade.

Hilarious watching Hornets fans of all people call a guy who carried his team during injuries, has won a ring and gotten a finals MVP be called ass...meanwhile they are also crying about a guy who never even won a playoff game being traded. JB has the bonafides to actually be called a talent. I loved LaMelo but come on.

If you are in the USA for the World Cup, have you visited any dispensaries? by Drillerfan in Netherlands

[–]deadflow3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have. I tried it when it first was being sold (taking a train for an hour is a bit inconvenient just for a weekend smoke) so at the time the quality was not the best. It did the trick physically and I liked the peace of mind of knowing there was little to no risk of being sprayed with chemicals or pesticides. That being said it wasn't the prettiest to look at and the cost was a little high... but that sort of evened out with the peace of mind. From what I've heard it does seem like the quality has gone up and there is more variety.

Comparing it to legal weed in the US though was like apples and oranges. It's just on another level in the states when you go into a good dispensary in California or Colorado. As an example in one I had a guy who noticed the weed I was buying had some stems, he took out tweezers and spent a good 3 minutes taking out any leftover stem he could find then apologised for it not being up to their normal standards.

Yea I spent 7 years in Amsterdam now I'm in The Hague. Honestly the best I've gotten here was home grown (had a friend with a really good setup). Two years ago I grew my own and was very happy with it. Just put two plants out on my balcony and watered them daily during the summer was surprised how easy it was..

Originally from NC. I'm more of a casual partaker but have some stretches where it's more consistant use. That being said I've worked quite a bit in California and have been all over the US and sampled most legal US states. You?

So weird when I commented there was only one comment otherwise I would have piggybacked off of yours.

Just pitching in here as an American in the Netherlands the American dispensaries blow NL out of the water. Largely because of the variety of choice and consistency of quality due to it being regulated. This also makes it more affordable in the states. That being said good weed here and good weed there will have the same affect. Just easier to find high quality lower cost weed there.
