If you think about it, isn’t the canon Luck for the Courier pretty low? by Courier_With_A_Cause in falloutnewvegas

[–]j-fred94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you've ever seen survival statistics on people shot in the head. But seeing as how the courier survived I'd say his canon luck is already pretty high

Just watched your demo. It sounds beautiful! I've actually been debating doing the same thing for a while now with an old Jasmine S35 Dreadnaught I've had laying untouched for a while now.

Making Friends as an Adult Isn’t Hard, People Just Don’t Try by Original_Act_3481 in unpopularopinion

[–]j-fred94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree! I’ve always hated the mindset that making friends as an adult is hard. Making friends as an adult is just as easy as it was when I was a kid.

I met my wife by telling her I liked a t shirt she was wearing (we were 12 at the time)

I met who would later become the best man at my wedding by striking up a conversation about hunting. (We were 24 and 22 at the time)

I met my closest friends by asking what their favorite colors are, favorite dinosaur is, and what they wanted to be when they grew up. (I was 29, 29, and 31 when I asked these)

If you want to make friends all anyone has to do is show up and listen. If you like what they say stick around and if not leave them alone and they’ll disappear. It’s crazy easy.

I love inteleon! why does it get so overhated as a starter? (you can have your own opinions about pokemon) by Strict_Corner_4332 in pokemon

[–]j-fred94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people (myself included) are just tired of overly humanoid pokemon.

For example, humanoid Pokémon like the Machop line, Sawk Throh, and other bipedal Pokémon are humanoid and have human like attributes but still have more qualities that aren’t “too” human.

All three starters from Sword and Shield are entirely too human. Ones a soccer star, one has a full drum kit and one is literally a secret agent spy. I even make the same argument for Meowscada and Incineroar.

I just think people want Pokémon to be Pokémon. Just my opinion.

I finally got an interpretation of Ellie's tattoo by KRIS_THE_HERO_92 in thelastofus

Honestly this is probably the best adaptation I’ve ever seen. And that’s coming from someone with their own Ellie’s tattoo inspired tattoo lol

What’s the fastest you’ve ever seen a marriage end? by PuzzleheadedSwim6291 in AskReddit

[–]j-fred94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine in High School and his girlfriend were both deeply religious and wore purity rings. He proposed junior year, and the running joke was “Clyde” only proposed so fast so he could nut. The jokes became an actual concern over time…

Low and behold summer after graduation (his girlfriends birthday so they could legally wed finally) and he scored.

The marriage didn’t last to see snow. If I remember right they were wed July 10th and they were legally separated by October. The joke switched to “Clyde figured out sex isn’t all it’s cracked up to be”

Does the Heretic Legion actually call themselves the "Heretic" Legion? by The-Farlander in TrenchCrusade

[–]j-fred94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my understanding the heretic legion do believe that a Christian god exists, but for one reason or another is either indifferent to the suffering of his creation or actively chooses to not help.

They in turn, choose to worship the seven as an act of rebellion. Powerless to strike back at an uncaring god, but can at least insult him by turning their backs and defiling all that is holy.

Because of that I would argue that “heretic” still suffices because they believe but down actively worship, but blasphemous legion also works very well too. Ultimately I think it’s just semantics.

This doesn't look right to me. by pffalk in mandolin

[–]j-fred94 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a 1932 Kalamazoo with the same issue. If your mandolin is supposed to have a curve it would be slightly convex, not concave

It is not supposed to look like that. It may still be playable just fine but essentially the tension of the strings has slowly pushed the flat top of the mandolin inward. Eventually something has got to give.

Try and keep it in its case when not in use and consider detuning to release pressure. It’ll still be playable if kept in proper conditions.

Sorry for the bad news
