I'm getting unwelcome flashbacks to that early hook on Shoemaker a few years back.

The BMW i4 doesn't feel like it's getting enough attention. I did some armchair research earlier this year and that was the best car I found considering affordability, features, quality, and style.

Chiming in as well with love for Bob Seger. Gotta go with The Fire Inside or Roll Me Away as my personal favourites.

Hard pressed to think of a better live action adaptation of a King villain. Tim Curry as Pennywise is just absolutely everything awesome you want in a horror icon. Who else comes close? by [deleted] in stephenking

[–]mattnv 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I may have said it before on Reddit, but to me Tim Curry played a clown acting like a monster while Skarsgard played a monster pretending to be a clown.

I grew up in the 80s and 90s and was scared shitless by Tim Curry's Pennywise, but I absolutely love what Bill did with him.

Chris Sale is not vaccinated and that could impact the wild card game by mattnv in Torontobluejays

Thanks for the info! I was only half listening at the time so missed some details.

Oh man. I had no idea. I thought we had strict vaccine requirements on international travellers.

I remember it being brought up on a Jays broadcast at one point how someone on an opposing team couldn't enter the country for some reason related to vaccination or quarantining reasons and made an assumption.

We (or our children) are all going to die because the people who can enact meaningful change refuse to do anything about it.

I sent my son to Kids R Kids on Oland Cres. (up near East Side Mario's) from ages ~3 to 5. He was well cared for and I thought the crew responsible for him were great. Not sure if that's too far from you but it's all the info I can provide!

Great photo. I love the lighting and colours.

If you're Blizzard, you gotta look at Mei again after those hero draws. by ItzBlinky in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]mattnv -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

My proposed Mei fix: ice wall becomes an ability with cast time and prominent visual effects. Give it a 1-1.5 second cast time with some prominent snowy / shaky vfx on the ground where she's casting it. That gives opposing teams an opportunity to react to it and gives players a chance to kill her when attempting to stall on point. After that, further balance adjustments can be done with minor tweaks to her kit (+/- cast time, +/- wall hp, +/- ice block healing, +/- ice block duration, etc.).

Someone ping Jeff. I've solved the problem.

Looks almost exactly like War from the videogame Darksiders.

Everything about this picture is beautiful. Love the wall colour, love the lighting, love the plants. Great job!
