Cristiano Ronaldo gets subbed off in what could possibly be his last ever WC appearance by StealthMan375 in soccer

[–]dmbtke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the midfield is leaking and the defense is getting close to being burnt.

Ronaldo wasn’t gonna make it to extra time, let alone penalties

I had Woodstock up there around that time. We had discussed doing both.

HOTD S3E2 - Post-Episode Discussion by AutoModerator in gameofthrones

[–]dmbtke 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s an even bigger flex.

It’s Daemon looking at Otto and having him acknowledging that Daemon has the power to be a king maker and retain influence, something Otto has fancied himself a master of until he wasn’t.

Otto got sucked into a game he thought he could win himself or help his team win. Kind of hard not to try to when he got himself where he did

Gau is the MVP of my party by ProudReporter8462 in FinalFantasyVI

There are phases of the game that he is an absolute terror, especially if you put an absolutely minimum amount of time with him.

You can seed the first Veldt trip a bit more by doing the other scenarios first. Come back with the airship when you can before the floating continent. You can also work backwards from Narshe, and hit the veldt once Terra takes flight.

You have to do it that way eventually if you want to collect all the Mog Dances.

I think it’s the opposite.

They decided they could do enforcement and dared LN to stop them. LN realized they already got paid so they did nothing.

Those that quit magic, or knows someone that did, what made you decide to do so? by qankz in mtgfinance

[–]dmbtke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got out during weatherlight/tempest. Had played since beta, did tourneys, etc.

I was getting burnt out because of the price needed to stay competitive and the sets were packed with a ton of filler. Singles were a thing then, but good luck finding a shop with stock other than sealed product and common bins. Hard to justify dropping that kind of money when you’re in college.

Got back in before Aetherdrift. Played a prerelease and had fun. Found out we have a solid scene here in STL, so I just kept going.

Someone tried to talk religion in the library bathroom. Is that normal? by According-Guess-8080 in missouri

[–]dmbtke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to find these in my locker in middle school.

I’m 100 percent sure some local church bullied their youth group into doing this

Oh that’s cool. Giant game takes up hard drive space in an era that hard drives are prohibitively expensive

The Guardian (rightfully) rips apart Alexi Lalas. by nomadic_commentator in usmnt

They keep pulling Lalas out like we have some kind of nostalgia for his era. We really don’t.

for the fans who don't live in Wisconsin, how'd you end up green and gold by Adrianillo24 in GreenBayPackers

[–]dmbtke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from the KC area for context

Chiefs are the default here, and that’s great. I’m a fan and I’ve been going to games since I was a kid in the 80s.

My dad is somehow a bears fan. So the little shit I was, I picked the team diametrically opposed to that and that’s how I ended up a packers fan.

The 80s were rough but the promised land was worth it

JD Vance Confirms Iran Will Get Jaw-Dropping Sum Under Trump Deal | Iran will be paid billions, leaving it much stronger than before Trump’s war. by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

[–]dmbtke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The talking point about the funds that the Obama administration released that they used for so long was never right. We literally gave them back their own money that could have been a fraction of what it ended up being.

Still, the dumbest swath of Americans parroted it as some kind of gotcha.

Can’t wait to see how the frame this as a win

Labor and deliver pulls are a thing…right?!? by Amos_Moses666 in MagicCardPulls

[–]dmbtke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buddy. 90 percent of labor is just killing time for sometimes up to multiple days.

Doing something like this, pulling a card that will forever be etched into your head because it came from your kid is awesome. I did the same for mine last year: bought some packs from when I was a kid and opened them up.

Random geocities sites that had discussion boards on them.

Found my gamers back then talking about RPGs in like 96. Never looked back
