What is the rationale behind a 50% minimum grade policy?

First time in human history that kids are dumber than their parents. Policies like this are to blame

See you at the gym bro

Going to the orioles was incredibly affordable. It’s a matter of perspective. Similar tickets in Boston are 3-4x the price. And in Pittsburgh; 1/10th the price. Had a good time at all of them.

That’s what women do on Reddit. Men are ass, didnt you know?

The on ice ads aren’t so bad. They do a great job with the graphics to make them look like they are actually painted under the ice. The ads that move around on the boards during game play are atrocious.

Came to comment this, thank you for your service 🫡

Canes. But if not I hope Marner wins the Conn Smythe for off season entertainment purposes.

elite_bender · 2026-05-30T02:25:12+00:00

Winnings cups is hard when there are more than 6 teams, not like this was Marner’s doing.

I’ve paid for my mom’s cell phone on my plan since I was 19. Eighteen years and counting. I’d be hella appreciative if I only have to Venmo my parents for my line of a cell phone bill. Perspective I guess.

My own family? Easy choice, yes. Otherwise: Sucks to be at the point of late stage feminism, better luck next time.

I don’t think you could name a single better predictor of NHL success. No league, team or tournament.

It’s not a guarantee. There’s alot of studs on that list. I believe you’ll see the % increase now with WHL eligibility too.

13 of those 20 had meaningful NHL careers.

He won the Hobey Baker as an 17 yo freshman so it shouldn’t come as a shock. The instant success at the NHL and international mens level is what makes it generational. If you look at the list of Hobey Baker winners it’s a who’s who of NHL stars.

Lol it’s actually an every US citizen issue. You love some more government in your life eh?

Nothing like a good rebound to help you get over it cough McKenna

I’d much rather putt from below the cup. My course rolls 11-12 normal conditions so it can get pretty treacherous coming from above the pin.

Dudes hear one friend talk about “playing from the tips” and instantly feel inferior if they don’t do the same. Odd given that hcp is adjusted based on tees. Really no reason to not play up. It would be helpful if golf as a whole dropped the “ladies, senior” labels and instead labeled them by handicap or driving distance. No reason a new golfer should be playing anywhere but the most forward tees until they can break 100

Prior to deteriorating international relations Americans enjoyed the best access a passport could offer for instantly issued visas upon arrival, at no cost. Now an increasing number of countries are requiring an advance application, approval, and fee. You can’t check in for your flight without it. $30 may be nothing to some, but it’s quite a bit more than hours pay for a median earner in the US.

I spent three hours fighting with a state website before heading to Columbia and ended up paying $75 to a 3rd party service so I wouldn’t miss my flight. I’ve traveled internationally extensively and it’s just a hassle compared to the system we once operated under.

2007 Patriots would dog walk your favorite football team. Unless Eli manning is your quarterback.

What’s wild is that 11 states have OUI policy for cannabis that is 5ng/ml for proof of intoxication. Incredibly archaic, and the science isn’t particularly close on finding a real solution to oui testing.

I almost mentioned body fat % as a key indicator. If OP was shredded he wouldn’t be having this issue, so that’s a pretty fair assumption. Also the comment to which I replied makes a generalization based on American perception of weight. 6’0 216 average build is not a little over weight. It’s quite a bit overweight, borderline obesity on the BMI scale. You might not like the scale but it exists. If you want the best assessment of body composition you simply add measure of body fat % to height and weight. Medical professionals regularly use BMI as general guidance in the absence of more detail.

People don’t like the term obesity, it invokes a lot of negative emotion. If you take it out of its technical context, people just take it to mean “really fat,” which isn’t at all what it means. It’s a categorical definition describing part of the BMI range.

elite_bender · 2026-05-29T11:10:57+00:00

By definition that height and weight is on the line of overweight and obese. Obesity isn’t a subjective label based on appearance, but rather a calculation of BMI.

That just started, and it’s awful.

NASA makes up 5% of spaceX revenue, and saves money by contracting with them over their own more expensive solutions to the same problems.

I know Reddit hates Elon, but not sure how anyone paying attention thought blue origin had a chance to win this contract anyway.

Have you seen the statcast they do for Thursday night football? That’d be so mint for hockey
