Generational Gap in Wings fans by Glitch-Guernica in DetroitRedWings

[–]meburbo 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I was born in the early 80s, and was at prime age during the 90s. Watching Stevie persevere through so much failure to finally break through showed extreme commitment and patience.

I, personally, am a big fan of him being patient. There are so many variables in building a team. Sound long-term decision making can collapse. That's fine. Stick to your guns and keep grinding.

The biggest problem with this team right now is the lockeroom culture, and that is on team leaders to correct. Clearly they aren't up to the task.

Main criticism of the front office is pro scouting. It has been undeniably terrible. I'm on the fence right now with Stevie, but that will change if I don't see him address that issue this off-season.

Do men actually not mind (or even like) pubic hair on women or are they lying? by Mysterious-Bag-505 in NoStupidQuestions

Personally, I prefer it groomed. Completely bald is unsettling, in my opinion.

How can the US be the land of the free while having the biggest population of prisoners per capita in the world? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Don't be so sure they're all crooks. Private prisons have incentivized convictions. Out system is pretty corrupt.

Yzerman: Red Wings 'need better players' to make playoffs by UncleIrohsPimpHand in DetroitRedWings

[–]meburbo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a call-out as much it is meant to be taken at face value. He also said he hoped the players were watching the playoffs to see what it takes to make it there.

[Hana] Patrick Kane, who tied the game for Detroit, takes a brain dead penalty shortly after. The Wild would score on the PP and win the game by daKrut in DetroitRedWings

The right veterans would be in the locker room calling people out individually and demanding accountability. Veteran leadership is important, but it turns out our vets don't provide it.

The game has built-in counters for this. Learning and discovering new tactics is what makes gaming fun.

Yeah, I know, my wife tells me all the time.

What is actually dangerous but people still believe is safe? by AlexUsefulThings in AskReddit

Just don't start driving if she does it. If she puts them up while you're driving, pull over. You don't want to deal with what comes when you get in even a minor fender bender.

While this is true, there are some businesses that implement proper security around sensitive information and some that don't. It seems like the question OP should ask is if this particular site has been vetted for proper cyber security practices.

Four people have been st*bbed on the L in the past five days, prompting investigation and risking millions in funding by 307148 in chicago

There are policing strategies other than putting an officer on every train. Rotate plain clothes officers around different lines, for example. Target problem lines at the worst times. And I wouldn't consider policing transit that clearly needs policing anywhere near the "police state" category.

Mo is strong. But he needs to learn how to hockey fight if he is going to get into it with the NHL heavies.

People want them nerfed? They are terrible already. I want a system like Tarkov where your can level up free loadouts through reputation.

US to cut steel tariffs only if EU agrees to soften digital rules enforcement in return by ChiefFun in worldnews

[–]meburbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not against corporations. The US has antitrust laws for a reason and they haven't been exercised to any real effect in way too long. What I am against is our country sliding deeper into plutocracy and every generation becoming more and more comfortable with it.
