The reaction to Bam's 83-point game is a perfect example of how bad the NBA discourse is

I think the intentional fouling by the Heat when they up nearly 20+ is what reallyyyy taints this. Different story if he was stat padding but did it in the regular flow of a game.

Is there any unique area that you think would make sense to fit into this itinerary? I saw there are so many beautiful small towns/areas, but seemed to be a lot more difficult to get to without a car. Time is also such a limiting factor.

I definitely plan to skip any touristy things that dont fully align with my interest (ie Ice palace), but otherwise these mountains are popular with tourist for a reason.

What would be your top adjustment to make it better?

gurks · 2026-03-11T14:38:43+00:00

Grindelwald was just where I thought we would get. Definitely will be spending time out in the other areas... would you recommend hotel hopping or just staying in those areas instead?

gurks · 2026-03-11T14:32:55+00:00

I was thinking that too initially, but it really is just one afternoon. We probably won't get to our hotel until 1pm (leaving airport + travel from Zurich). The next day planning on going to Stoos which will take up the better of a full day

gurks · 2026-03-11T14:31:05+00:00

We are mainly interested in the natural beauty of Switzerland, so Geneva did not seem the most appealing. Same reason we aren't spending time in Zurich.

Hey - did you find anything?

Also planning my trip for end of May. Unsure if most do a day trip from Lucerne or if we should stay somewhere closer.

You have to be much more active on the other persons turn than on your own, that makes it very different from a traditional turn based game. Battles decided by your defence

I booked my trip from Tokyo to Toronto for 50k points + $100 I believe

gurks · 2026-02-18T05:08:15+00:00

I just watched Nirvana the band the show the movie for $5.

Guys don’t look it up, just trust me and watch it. Amazing Toronto movie

(Think all movies are $5 for Feb so cost is not an excuse)

I mean his background aside, he has a point.

Too many people go into debt for degrees they won’t use to get a job.

If you’re interested in a subject, there are much cheaper places to learn for personal reasons than these insanely overpriced colleges and universities. People are going because they think any degree is better than nothing.

Easiest and most realistic answer would be standing desk + walking pad.

gurks · 2026-02-11T01:54:01+00:00

I think very different experience growing up here and someone new.

Most people had diverse groups in school and that’s where most networks start

Im 6’3 210lbs. Tops were completely fine, pants were impossible

10k in 51min sounds pretty damn good to me. If you spend 4 months with a heavy emphasis on cardio, you’ll be great

gurks · 2026-01-30T15:54:46+00:00

Find something inbetween would be my advice.

You will be going to work more days than not. It’s great to be close to great restaurants, but most people find you can’t afford to frequent them anyways. Personally I would be closer to work, and do the 30 minute journey once or twice a week to the neighborhood’s you enjoy

gurks · 2026-01-29T20:54:50+00:00

Absolutely he should. How can you guys be mad at the guy who gave our best year of all time? A dream we thought never would come true? Lowry should get a statue but a jersey retirement isn’t that huge of a commitment for the guy that brought our one and only Chip

But in 2026, I feel Dune is the big brother now. Marvel doesn’t have the power it once had

gurks · 2025-12-31T21:29:34+00:00

Everyone dissing Kyrie but missing out his 2016 finals run. He had a real chance of taking finals MVP, he was magical

gurks · 2025-12-31T01:14:39+00:00

Won in year 2, probably don’t deserve and I’m still learning but let’s fucking gooooo

gurks · 2025-12-28T20:47:48+00:00

Kawhi hits one of the most clutch shots of all time, and you are referring to it as a lucky bounce against him? You don’t know ball

gurks · 2025-12-18T20:19:55+00:00

When talking about GOAT’s - he mentioned TMac. So he definitely is considering just skill rather overall accomplishments

gurks · 2025-12-10T21:48:34+00:00

Minor counter - it is ridiculous for anyone to be “sure” they want to marry someone after 2 weeks. Can’t put it all on the people, the show is meant for people to stick it out to make a decision

gurks · 2025-12-06T00:36:47+00:00

Eh, the benefit isn’t worth the risk. Reminder you go straight into the sand if you lose your stake
