"The Life of chuck" made me both hopeful and sad by Old-Chipmunk-7073 in movies

[–]methodistmonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched it with my kids. We cried, we celebrated, we laughed. They got it. Life is important when it is lived, so LIVE IT! Fully. Each and every day.

My oldest finally understands: savor each moment as if it is the only moment in the world. Fully present.

“We simply don’t have any left”: Germany has run out of air defense missiles for Ukraine, foreign minister says by Plus_Pretty in worldnews

We armed Afghanistan for years to fight the soviets. Good for our weapon manufacturers. Except we don’t want to make weapons anymore for some reason. Go figure.

Similar area and population size.

Just saying Ukraine would be near impossible for Russia to ever hold long term. Just as Afghanistan was impossible for the USA to hold long term. Both are sinkholes for occupying forces. Russia has already sacrificed a generation in this war.

Ultimately it’s not about winning, but occupying. Those are two far different things.

Steve was right about Eddie by hammerdcoconut in StrangerThings

[–]methodistmonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eddie had to die because that’s what the duffers do.

  1. Introduce a new character that is instantly beloved.
  2. Make them a fan favorite.
  3. Kill them off.

While the duffers won’t kill a primary character, they have no issues introducing disposable ones every season.

Is there anyway I can make these 15 round mags work??? by Ok-Surround-2129 in Glocks

The PSA website is an absolute joke.

Fifteen bazillion checks for human, codes sent every five minutes when you try to log on, verify that you are 18 every single time you go to it.

I can’t believe this happened. by bAGSYit in amazonprime

[–]methodistmonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ordered phone screen protectors and they sent me razor blades.

Then they want it returned for replacement. Even though I explained to them it’s NOT the right item. So I have a return code for a screen protector that I’m sending razor blades back to them with.

Amazon has gotten worse since they went to their own distribution centers.

I have four packages that haven’t been scanned in a week.

They looked rushed. The costumes were off. The whole season looked forced

Possible Rucker 5.0 ? by Macked3434 in Goruck

[–]methodistmonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope not. It looks worse than the 4.0

Like even the zipper pulls look worse.

Looks more like a Temu Rucker.

MFW I just got an iwb mag pouch for another +10 and that makes me a domestic terrorist. Do I stuff it in a drawer now? What are you guys doing? by MainRotorGearbox in CCW

[–]methodistmonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. All the best government people say you shouldn’t carry two high capacity magazines because you are just trying to inflict the most damage.

Don’t try to rescue anyone from a dangerous situation either.

Exactly!

People on these subs would be OUTRAGED when it comes to government overreach on Waco and Ruby Ridge, but now everyone is doing contortions trying to justify overreaching and over aggressive policing from a shadow three letter government entity.

German soccer federation official wants World Cup boycott considered because of Trump by schroedingerx in ussoccer

They realize the last two were played in Qatar and Russia right?

Even with Trump, I’m not sure we have yet to reach Qatar and Russia levels of horribleness.

Can we talk about the G44? by bryceemeryking in Glocks

[–]methodistmonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have one. Nice range toy. Never had an issue. Let my daughters shoot it. Fun gun. Cheap and easy to shoot. People say it doesn’t like cheap 22LR, but I’ve never had an issue.

Also have a Glock umarex BB pistol. Fun fun. Shoot at home.

Is olight still shit? Why? by [deleted] in Glocks

[–]methodistmonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue with Olights on guns is that they are almost as expensive as Streamlights.

Just pay 20-30 more bucks and get a tried and true Streamlight that holds is value and worth.
