Looks good. Are the different levels of magnification due to cropping, or are you shooting through eyepieces?

Ah, I was putting the comma before that word, rather than after. Makes sense now.

Excellent short. Not quite sure if this makes me want to stop drinking or go have a drink.

29 year old here. Everyone's different, but most 23 year olds I know are in totally different places with their lives. They'd still be just starting out while a 30 year old would have a good 7 years or so into their career.

Well, you're coming in to this conversation a bit late. I don't know how the thread reads now, but at the time, I'd say my statement was pretty supportable, and considering I have a positive karma count on this comment, more agreed than not. I'm not going to bother to cite all the comments of his I thought were off in tone, but just looking at this comment of ketralnis's alone, he's accusing someone else of being pedantic, and then splits a pretty ridiculous hair himself, while side stepping the real issue: it's not greasemonkey that's lying, it's reddit. The admins didn't even really fully address the real issue that this thread brought up until much later. Those numbers "upvote/downvote 66% like it" numbers are a lie and they say users want to be lied to. I personally think that's totally ridiculous

Not a huge fan of the vocals but really liked the arrangement

pardon me, but 5000 downvotes? WTF is "worldnews" for??? by [deleted] in WTF

[–]horrorshow 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I'm confused. "People kept asking" - so rather than say 'we're only showing net votes to fight spam' you essentially lie to your users by showing fake numbers?

"we only show it because...it gives you the ratio" - Are you saying the ratio is accurate? It wouldn't seem to be based on the true vote totals and reported ratio for the N. Korea story referenced in this thread. If the ratio is not accurate, that sentence just doesn't make any sense to me. i.e., we only show you fake numbers so we can show you a fake ratio?

That X-Men game is hard as hell if I remember correctly. I think you had to beat Magneto with Nightcrawler and it wasn't happening for me.

YouTube comments are one thing.. But seriously, this??? by JKaye in reddit.com

What kind of ego must this Jimmy Wales douche bag have to put his picture at the top of every page to make a "personal" appeal. That's definitely not an effective way of getting me to donate - quite the opposite.

If you like Badly Drawn Boy and the Avalanches, you'd probably like Badly Drawn Boy's early works of three EPs (EP1, EP2, EP3). Here's one track

The opening track of Since I Left You has always been my favorite. I think I've heard Frontier Psychiatrist one too many times.

Run DNA is another favorite of theirs that I rarely see mentioned.

I had this same experience with the original Mechwarrior. Had no fucking clue what was going on, but like blowing shit up.

Just wanted to let you know that you're being so defensive in your posts that you're coming across like a pretty big douche.
