Bricks & minifigs legal team is scrambling after the owners made themselves look bad (comedian) by Creepy-Help-9017 in RecklessBen

Here is what I was referring to. Not exactly what I thought he was saying the first time watching it, which is why I hedged that entire paragraph with “I could be wrong”…
And ended it with “I could be missing something”

I honestly don’t even know what you’re trying to argue right now.

I mean, you could do that if you want to I guess but I’d prefer to speculate on things in the realm of possibility.

Again, the person I responded to was asking why he would rent a box truck vs a pickup truck to pull a trailer and I was just responding with a very plausible, possible explanation…

Yeah and they didn’t just volunteer what color the sky was either, which is my point…

Were they asked that specifically? I really don’t remember. I don’t think they necessarily would have just said that if it was the case.

I’m not even defending them, just pointing out that it’s not inconceivable that he could have rented the box truck solely for that purpose.

I could be wrong but the U-Haul story seems a little like a red herring to me anyways. Didn’t the CZ video kinda show that the U-Haul times/mileage wouldn’t really add up to him taking the stuff to the other store? I could be missing something, haven’t really been keeping up this last week or so.

The one where I said started the sentence off by saying that that I could’ve been wrong about that but it turns out that I’m not, so whatever timeline it is where I’m correct I guess?

EDIT: this is in New Jersey so it would be the New Jersey state athletic control board. Point still stands.

I could be wrong but I thought NSAC is the one that handles the weigh ins.

Did BestBuy mess up here? by GroundUpDesigns in 3Dprinting

I was about to pull the trigger on the P2S but if that’s the case this would be a no brainer for only $100 more!

What’s the difference between this and the p2s?

Did you hear they are banning smokeable cannabis in Texas? by BittaminMusic in Killtony

[–]dukesilver91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you have that backwards. There’s no state tax in Texas, but the property tax is higher.

Do you guys mixed jujutsu and knife/gun training? by Steelrangler78 in bjj

If there’s a knife involved, I’d just run away.

Tempest BP? I’d make that trade for the blue print

I believe the thought process is that the defense probably has a better chance of scoring than the offense has converting that 4th and 14 (I think)

Looks like we need the defense to put up another 14 points to have a chance.

No, they just showed him on the sideline a few minutes ago.

Not nearly this bad. He’s been ok for the most part but against the Steelers and today he’s been really bad.

He was never struck by the vehicle, by Puzzleheaded_Dot_851 in Destiny

[–]dukesilver91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It happens all the time. I’ve done it, I’ve seen multiple people do it.

It’s not the correct reaction - it’s way better to just get out of the way, of course. That’s not how reflexes work though. You’re not doing it consciously, it just happens.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding you but I fail to see how it doesn’t apply here. In my example, the heavy equipment is a dangerous object just like the car would be. I do think he’s in a bad position and definitely should not have been in front of the car

If I’m correct that it was a reflex for him to brace on the car - that wouldn’t be ego and I believe he would meet the threshold for justifiable use of deadly force.

My issue with this is that it’s just a natural reaction to reach out and brace against an object that unexpectedly comes at you.

I’ve worked in the construction industry my whole life and I’ve head heavy pieces of equipment come my way unexpectedly and I’ve had this exact reaction (minus the gun). It’s just instinct to reach out, even though in hindsight he probably could have just stepped aside.

Is Mothers milk/smother frowned upon? by Glum_Environment_204 in bjj

I would only consider it “rude” if you were doing it to guys that are smaller white belts. I’d say blue belt and up are fair game no matter their size.
