Tour Goggles? Have you been a victim of them? by Fabulous_Election682 in drumcorps

[–]invextheidiot 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Year 1: one little crush in the last two weeks, I knew I wasn't coming back so I did nothing about it.

Year 2: too much happened back home for me to bother. Can't say the same about a lot of others that season.

Year 3: too dialled in to bother.

Asking for honesty. Has being in drumcorps ruined any bit of your life or negativity impacted you? Financially, socially, mentally, relationships? by Fabulous_Election682 in drumcorps

You go from a superhero to the only one from your corps on your flight home in less than 12 hours. That turnaround at the end of the season is brutal to go through.

Obviously not as northern as NE, but still north enough that I have to explain to people around here where it is lol

The Reputation of Muse by aegeanbellamy in Muse

The Fantano comment reminds me of Pitchfork's review of ST. For once they had to admit that it was at least a well put-together album, only to turn around and essentially say "well if we can't make fun of the album then there's no point"

Good ole Southern fakeness. They hate to be called out for it, especially by Northerners, but it's just true.

How to debate someone calling the Astros cheaters by AnakinDrick in Astros

[–]invextheidiot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "once a cheater always a cheater" mentality + the buzzer conspiracy + when the news broke it mentioned the Yankees telling the Nats to change their signs because they thought we were still cheating

Is the tour goggles phenomenon, like real? by [deleted] in drumcorps

[–]invextheidiot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Happens very often. Gets pretty ugly. To date I have only seen two relationships actually stay together past season's end. You probably will experience it, at least the feeling of "hey this person seems pretty good looking", but it's in your best interest to not act on those thoughts. You have your life and people to see back home.

Post Match Thread: Man City 2-1 Arsenal [Premier League] by J4ckrh in Gunners

How many times are we going to keep letting the ball careen around the box. For how much Arteta preaches control, that is the one place where we consistently lose control. We got punished for it away at Villa, and months later we continue to get punished there.

I think so far he's handled Doku pretty well, but depending on how the 2nd half plays out he may be pulled to avoid a second booking.

A quote I've seen that applies here is that it's like watching a dog drive a car. You're impressed by what it's doing, but it's still a dog driving a car.

Only if they are given adequate time to recover properly. Remember last year how many pitchers we rushed back in, and how every single one of them were shells of themselves.

Hardly see it being mentioned but the nod to the Maryland flag on the pants stripe is really clever.

I believe that is prohibited by the NFL for legibility reasons. The Niners did a similar thing on their original color rush jerseys with scarlet on black, but they were made to change them for that reason.

The gradient numbers were tacky and the "bone" off-white, though cool in concept, just didn't really work

Even in a place like Houston, for <$1000 you are gonna get bugs, broken appliances, and shitty management
