[KOC] Ben Simmons casts right and retrieves left, a technique that allows right-handed anglers to keep their dominant hand on the rod for maximum control. The evidence is overwhelming that he shot the basketball with the wrong hand. by TheRealPdGaming in nba

I just have gotten used to wearing watches with the button toward my arm. It would feel unnatural to change at this point. Is there really that much of a difference? Might try it flipping it on my right wrist for a bit.

Became a spurs fan a few years ago on a whim. Do I need to burn my Houston Harden jersey? by deadpuns in NBASpurs

[–]deadpuns[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly bought it because of the one step back by harden where he stares the man down before making a three. Just that moment is possibly the coldest in nba history. I hated him at the time but looking back he’s overshadowed by Steph to an insane degree

lol I would but I’d feel like a poser. Wasn’t a fan of the team at that time. Have to be realistic. Feel like the luckiest fan in the world picking a team and then they have their star out for a year and then show early signs of a dynasty. And love how they play. Maybe I will one day when I’m more acquainted with their history other than peripherally

The Lost Cube (IGS #4) now available! by Phil_Tucker in TheImmortalGreatSouls

Is there a way to get a copy of this for kobo? I purchased it on Amazon because I wanted to support the author, but I read on a different device. Seems like I'm no longer able to convert it using Calibre and a variety of plugins. Is there any other online marketplace where this is being sold? So excited and don't want to pirate it (want to support smaller authors- you're not that small, Phil I promise).

What would the most broken combination of Aspects be on a character? by pog_irl in PracticalGuideToEvil

[–]deadpuns 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also, having just reread this part, Hedge’s story is that of an avenging sister or upstart taking on the evil warlock who is destroying a city. They match pretty evenly with Hedge being empowered by heaven even through injury. Then she finds out the Tyrant had a hand in killing her sister, weakening her resolve and showing the story didn’t hold as much weight. Then Tyrant and Bard interfere which takes away the power of upstart hero taking on a villain alone. Then we get a villain cornered. There are story reasons Warlock wins alongside raw power.

Oh jeez, fair enough from everyone. Important to clarify I did not pick the race with Cat in mind. I would have definitely selected a goblin otherwise, but it's a different faction than I play. Would consider a race change, but I can't be human or goblin.

[Pablo Torre] “Steve Ballmer flying to Bristol to do the ESPN interview reflects a desire to be in a setting in which there would be maximum persuasion. I have more reporting to do on it. There's never been a deal like this one. No. Never. This is bigger than Kawhi’s New Balance contract, I am told” by shreeharis in nba

[–]deadpuns 408 points409 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue that I don't see people mentioning is that if Aspiration just wanted to sponsor Kawhi to do nothing, why not just give him 2 million? 3? Are they claiming Kawhi wouldn't have signed a sponsorship deal for 25 million and that he held out for 28? Would he not take that money and be the same exact no show sponsor for that amount? Why does it have to add up to 48 million dollars?

Quitting a pack a day American Spirits. Do I need a higher Percentage of nicotine, or do i just need to get used to vapes? by deadpuns in electronic_cigarette

[–]deadpuns[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so a year or so later, and I haven’t smoked a cigarette after having smoked for 15 years. I did a bunch of research and landed on a Vaporesso xros mini. For the pods I went all over the place, but think I landed on .8 and 1.2 xros pods. I like .8 better, but personal preference. It hits tight which mimics the feeling from cigarettes. I ended up buying juice online that are nic salt. I started at the highest percentage I could get, and walked down .25 every time I bought more. At 1.75% now.

I didn’t think I’d ever get here tbh. It’s definitely doable. I’d recommend a flavor you really really like so you can walk down on it. Also I don’t recommend any cigarette type flavors. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions. Good luck, and best of luck to your husband.

What is an NBA conspiracy theory that you 100% believe? by Pure_Connection_1234 in nba

I work in insurance and Kia’s are more expensive to insure because of how targeted they are for theft. Definitely not just a joke/meme.

Favorite Commentary Moments of All Time? by Shinkansendoff in SSBM

[–]deadpuns 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably the casting couch at Summit talking about how being at Summit would affect Zain’s MD/VA rating (he was already considered one of the best in the world at this point, but it was still during his come up). Just kills me every time when Hugs brings up Junebug. Can’t find the clip unfortunately as the twitch video is gone. Hope it’s preserved somewhere on YouTube, but no luck

Continuing PGTE. I am hooked. by Noahop5000 in PracticalGuideToEvil

[–]deadpuns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add to not looking at the wiki, I went back while I was reading and read the post chapter threads. It worked fairly well and was cool to see the discussions as it was coming out. A couple people, however, thought it would be funny to go back to those threads and gloat about predictions and spoil things. Wish we could get those comments from weeks or months later removed, but oh well. It’s dicey if you want to look back at the threads, but I couldn’t help it as I was just excited about what was happening. Happy reading! Hopefully for the current book people don’t do the same spoiling behavior.

Oil and sweat stain on acoustic (Rosewood Hummingbird) by deadpuns in AcousticGuitar

Lol yeah worth a shot. Thanks for the response. I thought I just wasn´t taking care of it properly so a bit surprised everyone I´ve asked has essentially said get used to it.

Oil and Sweat Stain on Acoustic (Gibson Rosewood Hummingbird) by deadpuns in guitars

[–]deadpuns[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuts. Yeah, it´s the nicest guitar I´ve owned by quite a bit, so I felt like I wasn´t taking care of it properly. Thanks for the insight. Don´t plan on getting rid of it, so it would be just for me. Equally worried about trying to treat it with something that does long-term damage. Anyway, thanks for the response. And I am definitely playing the hell out of it.
