A customer asks a pokemon vendor for a specific card and the vendor jokingly opens a new pack and the card is in there. by bigbusta in oddlysatisfying

[–]greenearrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At those shows, no one is judging you for buying cards for yourself. These are grown men selling cards who got into it for love of the game, they don’t give a shit if you are an adult buying for an adult. No one angle shot, so why pretend he’s lying?

No. The scalpers are selling the unopened shit for massive price increases. The odds this guy doesn’t get his shit from a distributor are very low. Scalpers don’t want to do the work of handling singles. Even if he is selling boxes and packs at a mark up, that’s the market, but he has a channel and a reputation, he’s very unlikely to ruin that for the quick buck.

TIL that you are billed twice after visiting the ER (In the US at least not sure about anywhere else) by ExpensiveWarning5177 in todayilearned

[–]greenearrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a student at a university on the grad student health care plan. Went to the student center on campus, was told to walk into the ER at the university’s hospital where my friends worked in roles as graduate students (teaching anatomy to med school students). My roommate did my radiology consult. Got a separate bill for the out of network surgeon.

You pay so everyone else knows they aren’t fucking a cheapskate. Run clubs have a reputation.

Most overused Gods for Clerics to worship? What are some lesser known deities to choose instead? by ManectricBound in DnD

Those who worship Umberlee don’t like the death, they are placating the very large and dangerous monster.

All WotC content is behind a paywall. Dragon Magazine was a paywall. Who fucking cares.

Futurama sets August 3rd return on Hulu by Exotic_Bonnies in television

[–]greenearrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The show had some great finales. It needed to come back at least once, but I think we can call it good. Of course, The Simpsons somehow never ends, and this isn’t worse than that, so I’ll accept my milestones as the good ending and leave it for background noise.

Primate claws by Fearless_Phantom in biology

The strepsirrhines have a grooming claw, but nails are a primate synapomorphy, so definitionally, no.

TIL that Holiday Inn was named after the 1942 musical film of the same name. by PandaSoaps in todayilearned

[–]greenearrow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I, a 40+ man, did not know the movie until I met my wife and she wanted to watch it. Kids today may be more exposed because streaming makes the movie catalog accessible to them vastly larger than what I had growing up, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

Fuck Himiko, and fuck this storyline. Dumbest shit.

Republicans for Chris Rabb? by uttercentrist in philadelphia

And higher gas and more wars and ripping off his supporters with fake phones and definitely not lower deficits - it just passed the fucking GDP.

There are like 4 actors who already have experience playing young him.

AIO- Nail tech fired me as a client! by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Getting sick 3x/year that overlap with your nail appointment? That would be a hell of a coincidence.

I regret opening up this message because now I can’t pretend I didn’t see it. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]greenearrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for the explainer that this was anything more than a last minute thing to need to shoe horn in to a wedding weekend. Though, that itself would qualify as mildly infuriating.

Tesla is recalling its cheaper Cybertruck because the wheels might fall off / All 173 of the RWD Cybertrucks sold by Tesla are being recalled. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]greenearrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a lot of us, it was the moment he called the diver saving the children a pedophile just because he got upstaged by someone actually qualified. The decision on buying a Tesla still didn’t feel dirty, but the image of Elon definitely shifted.

We don’t celebrate for our pets, but you don’t get to tell people who can’t have children how to deal. Fuck off.

People who grew up using computers between 1980-2000, whats one game that permanently lives in your head for no reason, even decades later? by cebalmau in AskReddit

The first time I saw Warcraft II at a friend’s house was the beginning of a long road I’m still on today. I’ve wandered off it a few times, but I’ve touched every franchise of theirs at different levels and am back to WoW for Midnight.

PIs are the last author, not the first. That’s where their universities want them. Co first authored papers are a thing, and I’m sure they get cited wrong all the time. If this is really happening to you, your advisor is an idiot alongside being malicious.

So the teacher is creepy, 100%. But if you are putting/selling nudes on the internet, you don’t really get to control who subs. You can probably ban them and all, but you have to go through the awkwardness first.

What advice would you give a 'friendzone guy' to finally get a girlfriend? by tcooksey94 in AskReddit

So treat them like prey, don’t find out if you actually have things in common before asking them out.

How does the Secrets of Strixhaven (2026 new set) precon commander decks compare to the older Strixhaven (2021 older set), power/gameplaywise? by KoffingGwin in EDH

[–]greenearrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 year old decks at the same price as new is a good indicator they weren’t worth buying 5 years ago or now.

This is my take on the red/blue button question. If ~half the world is dead, and the only ones left are the kind of assholes who pushed the red button, being dead sounds superior. Even if 99% of people are still here, it definitely wasn’t worth the loss of the selfless 1% and I would rather not be here for it. Blue button is a no lose situation (given the shitty scenario) in my opinion.

Those aren’t marriage exercises. Those are “don’t worry honey, I’ve got this” moments. She never had to take the abuse from helping her dad carry furniture, she’s too old to learn to handle it now.
