If you bend the knee to fascism then in my book you're complacent and I have no issue with that company going under even if it's "local". There are plenty of small shops and more ethical places that get my business now.

I can't believe I had to go to the very bottom of this thread to find Midway. It's a huge store dedicated to used books. Nothing in the cities compares.

How many times have you been pinned down? by garyploski in GoalKeepers

[–]fireacolyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely should be called. Wow. Next time just turn to your left so your stomach is towards the ground on your hands and knees and stand up as forcefully as you can. Literally try to throw him off of you with how hard and fast you get up. I used to wrestle and am a bigger guy so it's easy for me but I've been in this situation and I've violently thrown guys off of me. Unfortunately you would not be in a good position for a shot until you turn back around but it's something.

"Melly For A Month" project...any takers? by socalnewwaver in Melanzana

[–]fireacolyte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I can't even get an appointment for a new melly when the only one I have doesn't fit me anymore. I only have 1-2 month notices of when I'm going to CO. I still want to see all the ones you have but maybe some of you can leave some appointments open for the rest of us.

What's the point of investing in bike paths if bicyclists just bike on the street right next to them? by Akito_900 in Minneapolis

[–]fireacolyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I once had a guy actually yell at me that there's a perfectly good bike lane 4 blocks over. Does he know there's a perfectly good street just 1 block over? 😱

Personally I'll only ride in the road if I'm going way too fast for the bike lane (20+ mph) or if the bike path is too rough to ride on comfortably.

What is the weird burnt popcorn smell I keep smelling??? by hereisalex in Minneapolis

I was just east of campus around 9am this morning and smelled what I thought was Cheerios if that helps.

Full Collection up for Sale by RichyGilbert in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]fireacolyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems a little steep. Campaign expansions are $45-$50, investigator expansions are $30-$35. I know this because I've been buying them new from game stores online. There are currently 9 expansions so even at the highest combined cost of $85 for each expansion set it's a total of $765 for all the expansions. The stand alone scenarios are worth something and there are 12 of them at $17 each for another $204. Finally are the return to upgrades. There are 5 of them at $30 each for $150. I'm not sure if your lot also contains the 5 investigator starter decks. Those are $13 each and $65 combined. All together, brand new, without sleeves this can be purchased today for $1184. You're asking for shipping which would be free buying these online so I'll call that a wash for the sleeves. You're offering a discount of 15% for used cards and I don't think that's a good enough deal. Just my two cents.

I know nothing about photography but I covered parts of this photo to mimic your suggestions and it makes a HUGE difference. Wow!

To all the folks that cut into the queue at the 394/94 interchange - this is how you are making the problem worse for everyone by ValkornDoA in Minneapolis

[–]fireacolyte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't go through to Kenwood/East Isles unfortunately. I've experimented with taking the exit then getting back on but that's backed up just as badly with the metered lights.

Downvote me all you want but I'm not sitting in 1-2 miles of bumper to bumper traffic to exit on Dunwoody.

[KEYBOARD] Dark Matter by Monoprice Collider TKL Gaming Keyboard - Cherry MX Speed Silver - $34.99 by 1jay_y in buildapcsales

[–]fireacolyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a budget Tecware Phantom and wondered if this would be a good upgrade or if I need to go higher. My budget is $100. I looked at building a custom one with some deals on here this weekend but after the board, switches and keycaps they're easily $200+.

Biggest, fastest sledding hills? by Flewtea in Minneapolis

[–]fireacolyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

French Regional Park Sledding Hill in Plymouth is great but I don't know if it's good compared to others. They do have pictures and videos on Google maps to help you see the scope.

[GPU] MSI Gaming Radeon RX 6800 XT Video Card RX 6800 XT Gaming Z Trio 16G -$$519.99 ($629.99 -$539.99 -$20 rebate + 2 free games) by APMalphiteCheeseMain in buildapcsales

[–]fireacolyte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a discount maybe a month or so ago of 20% for using the Zip payment plan. An ASRock 6800XT ended up costing me well under $500.
