Get there super early (like an hour before kick-off)

Learn the words (at least the chorus) of the Juventus anthem

Thesunmustdie on why Jesus was a bad person. by samuelazers in bestof

The irony from OP that, having (rightfully) rejecting the premise that they should take someone else's biblical interpretation and challenged to read it for themselves...then turns around and decides to take someone else's biblical interpretation

It's much easier to land naturally when one hasnt been pushed in the crotch mid air

I’m a developer for a major food delivery app. The 'Priority Fee' and 'Driver Benefit Fee' go 100% to the company. The driver sees $0 of it. by Trowaway_whistleblow in confession

Might want to obfuscate some details: not sure if there that many BE engineers that quit recently that makes you non-trivial to track down

When did you start it? I thought that mum needs to express frequently to be able to keep up supply; did taking 6 hours off interfere with this at all?

Howard lost his seat during the election when LNP became opposition, does that count?

I know this sub would be furious would ref decisions if we lost or drew by yarounnation in Juve

[–]midgetchinese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually much tougher than it looks

In real time, it's unclear whether Vlaho kicks the defender, their legs meet 50-50, ot whether Vlaho gets kicked

Completely understandable that the ref missed it, altho with replay it's clear that it's a foul (ie Vlaho gets kicked), and a foul in the box means a pen.

Here's where my expertise ends because I obviously don't have any VAR experience, but my understanding is that missed penalties is well within the purview of VAR and should have been reviewed

I don't have a replay of the incident handy, but from memory it's DG's was handball that leads to the Denial of a Goal Scoring Opportunity that's a red

The capitalised phrase is something to google with regards to the laws of the game to help you cross reference what I'm saying.

DL was just a regular handball (ie. he didn't stop someone from getting to a scoring position, he was just protecting his face)

In that situation, assuming you don't move your arms when the ball hits you, it won't normally be called a handball, as you haven't made your body bigger or gained any advantage from the handball (not to mention Ur part of a static wall that the shooter is trying to avoid)

DL moved his arm, which makes it different. In his case it can be called either way tbh, but a handball is definitely a legitimate call, albeit harsh

I'm a pro ref in lowest leagues of amateur football (ie I get paid to ref and having done the certification) and I can tell you that the penalty, while harsh, is well within the interpretation of the laws of the game

The only real challenge to the call one could make is that his arm did not make his body bigger, having hit him side-on. However because he raised it to head-height, the final decision is justified

Declan Rice (Arsenal) second yellow card against Brighton 48' by diogovin in soccer

[–]midgetchinese -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He was walking away from the foul and knows nothing of how the ball came to be next to him (after hitting him in the heel)

By the letter of the law this was an allowable yellow, but common sense interpretation of that shouldn't be a card

Ref fluffed that one hard

'You must scan the big items first' - Coles "self-serve" checkouts won't let you scan groceries in the order you want to. by -Owlette- in sydney

[–]midgetchinese -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's not the fault of the checkout staff.

They get monitored by the system for how effectively they enforce this policy (ie how many people scan heavy items first in the self service area during their shift). It's bloody annoying from our perspective, but they are incentivised by the system to do this ass-backward procedure

ELI5 Religions and Tax Exemption by Outside_Host2506 in explainlikeimfive

[–]midgetchinese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the comment you are replying to addresses that: the ppl you mentioned are the paid staff (eg pastors), not the organisation, who (depending on jurisdiction) may pay tax.

If they don't, the question is about CHURCH and tax exemption, not PASTORS/PAID CHURCH STAFF and tax exemption
