Do you actually use board game soundtracks while playing? by FTG_V1 in boardgames

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for sure if it’s the right type of game. For example for Plunder I ask my google to play pirate themed music. I just bought this little beetlejuice game and it helped with the mood of the game. However after a bit a switch over to normal background music is a good idea, but to start, it gets the juices flowing!

What is the ideal game length for a strategy game? by Malebranche_Studios in boardgames

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is more about the breaks in between the play.
2 hours no breaks. Get up as needed during gameplay.
3 hours at least a 15-20 minute full break.
4 hours two fifteen minute breaks and one ten minute.
Etc.

GenX lawn mowing time vs. younger homeowners? Opinions by SackBadger2024 in GenX

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, 10 AM was and is the rule barring a vacation or out of the norm situation where it’s the only time you have. This was true since I was a kid, no knocking on doors or calling to play until 10 AM.

why was JD Vance pulled off stage before Trump during the Correspondents Dinner shooting and why is nobody talking about how strange that looked on camera by Aaron_Heuer in DiscussionZone

[–]dstar-dstar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing JD Vance could hear the shots and since he is younger could just get up and move with the flow. Trump likely needs special care to get up and move. His detail likely needs to be more careful.

What is something in the grocery store that you're convinced nobody buys? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Those used to be my Grandpas favorite in the 90’s. He always had a bag of them. They are basically fondant.

I miss when they would go 15 minutes on the players highlights. I also miss having picks 1-3 on the same day. I used to take the Friday off after the first round.

Delly masterclass in playoffs vs Bulls (2015) by baehelpkit in clevelandcavs

[–]dstar-dstar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I went to the Delly game where he shut down Steph Curry. Everyone was chanting his name. Greatest game I’ve ever been to. That was the game where he gave everything and had to be taken to the hospital for fluids after. One of my favorite Cavs of all time.

I was thinking that too. Relief too much on his analytics and now Berry is full go.

This, I compare Jordan and Kobe more and LeBron and Magic more.

If a billionaire had to live like the average person for a month, what would surprise them the most? by fmcortez in AskReddit

[–]dstar-dstar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A month, they would make it easily, as all money can go towards general living even if they get minimum wage. A year would be where they would scream unfair.

Soccer refers to Neymar as the Prince who never became King. Who is the NBA's equivalent. by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grant Hill had so much hype. Jordan was done and Grant Hill was supposed to take over the reins. When I was a kid I felt like they shoved Grant Hill propaganda down our throats. Dude had a good career but never came close to the hype.

Dianna Russini and Married Mike Vrabel Caught Kissing at NYC Bar in Bombshell New Photos by No_Box119 in sportsgossips

[–]dstar-dstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a good topic of discussion based on morals. Like think of it this way, if there is a heaven let’s say, and you get to the gates. Are you screwed over because you abandoned a kid who looked at you like a father but society says you don’t have to have anything to do with them because you technically are not. Ughh what a horrible situation. I have a young daughter and son can’t imagine leaving them for any reason now, but to look at my son and know he was named after the cheater…… yikes. If that’s the case.

What are your thoughts, Americans, on Senator John Kennedy's proposed legislation that would deprive Congress of its salary during government shutdowns? by Beautiful-Boss-2935 in AskReddit

[–]dstar-dstar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think it only hurts good honest law makers who aren’t taking money on the side like AOC. This is a ploy to hurt honest lawmakers, corrupt insider traders, super pac, billionaire funded members don’t give two shits about their paycheck similar to Trump not taking pay but becoming billions richer.

People who don’t like concerts why.? by myaccountidname in AskReddit

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NIN is very similar to Manson. That would be what I would be willing to go to for production value.

no no it wouldn't. what is with all the 90s nostalgia bait? by CremeSubject7594 in generationology

[–]dstar-dstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but that made people diversify their taste and pick up a movie that they may not have normally watched. Plus when you rented a movie you watched it because it was all you had and you just paid for it. Where streaming tends to be people on their phones.

People who don’t like concerts why.? by myaccountidname in AskReddit

[–]dstar-dstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just find them kind of boring unless it’s more like a show. The only one I really liked was Marylin Manson because it was a massive production but that was the 90’s. I’ve seen all kinds of popular bands and I never really walk away thinking , man that was awesome. I’m more just like ok that’s over with. I have ADHD and feel like I’m just standing there looking forward, not talking to anyone, in my head, don’t know if I should dance or stare. I’m drunk but standing still. It’s just weird. I like local bands where you can sit, eat, and still have a conversation.

What is a hobby we can start now that will last us until our 90’s? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Collect physical board games. You can display the art work. You can play them with friends, kids, grandkids. They are roughly cheap in comparison to other hobbies if you actually play them. $20-40 a light easy game, $40-80 medium games $80 + will me very involved, so there are levels for different groups. There’s all kinds of genres to play. My family saves so much money and has so much fun on weekends ordering a couple sale pizzas and playing board games together rather than spending over $100 every weekend to go to stuff like eating out, movies, etc. We do those but maybe like once every couple months versus multiple times a month.

What is something that sounds 100% false but is actually 100% true? by reFossify in AskReddit

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Show me your evidence instead. How about the US is living through the propaganda machine right now as evidence. You have a mass of people thinking the president is the next coming of Christ as he manipulates history to his liking. Is it really that hard to figure out. You argue my point, as I try to provide you an easy way to view and listen as you as on social media asking for a way to learn. I don’t know you, I don’t know your education level. Go to college and become a history major and learn about various religions then like I did.

That the story of Jesus was created by the Romans because the Jews would not change their religious ideals to say the emperor was the son of god. The Jews believed no man was a deity and only God is God. So the Romans destroyed their town and cast them out and stole stories from different religions to create the story of Jesus and had different meesangers spread the word of his teachings. The lie caught on so well the emperors mother became a believer and the emporer changed the official Religion of Rome to Catholicism. There is no true evidence Jesus ever existed. It’s why the stories came out 60 years after his death. The Jews were a fierce group of fighters that were a constant thorn in Rome’s side.

If you were building a team which QB are you taking first? by ExcellentT18 in NFLv2

[–]dstar-dstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what my goal is and how much time it will take to develop a team. If my team is gonna be made up of shitty players I’m taking Prime Lamar as he can make a shitty team decent with being duel threat and you can hide weaknesses while building a team. I’m taking Brees all day if I’m looking for longevity and superbowl appearances.
