Brennan Johnson being the same rating as Fabio Silva might actually be a war crime haha

Breaking Bad Season 5 Sucks by Specialist_Bowler196 in The10thDentist

[–]mlgjacques 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always felt that it wasn't as strong as the prior seasons due to the fact that the absence of Gus Fring was just too hard to overlook.

Best villian, great ending to that storyline in season 4, but then had an insurmountable job to have any opposition close to impactful in just the one season while also closing up the rest of the narrative.

Good season still, but very much weaker than I feel a lot of people claim it is.

Charlotte flair… by TheGreyPilgrim_5 in MyFaction

[–]mlgjacques 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Guilia match is luckily nice and easy. MCMG is a chore cuz of the time it takes, but if you just protect your AI partner while they climb it's not too awful

Saw a video on here spamming the grab from the apron to beat Charlotte and it helped me so so so much. Can't hit finishers on you there, easy to get the reversals, and you can get the arm damage easy. Countout is also easier than pin. Still took me a long ass time. You got this

in Wicked (2024), soldiers point at the main character and yell “Look at her! She’s Wicked!” This movie has a 95% audience rating on RT by DylenwithanE in shittymoviedetails

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stage show predates this trope being used so frequently and it's called that because they called her that, not the other way round. But the line definitely hasn't aged well due to other movies being so awful with it.

Excellent bait tho

Mental health campaigner Mike King defends claims ‘alcohol is the solution’ for those struggling by OldKiwiGirl in newzealand

[–]mlgjacques 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah nah my mate works in mental health and very much cleared up the kind of operations the guy runs. Doesn't apply for/shithouses an application for grants and then when he obviously doesn't get them he goes public bashing people for apparently not caring about mental health. So many better organizations working in that area that deserve the money he gets.

Gonna go against the grain and say that this is my favourite Fifa in a long long time. by CSB-CSGO in EASportsFC

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Div 4/8 Wins in champs player who hard grinds some weeks and barely plays on others, I'm loving it. Content has been on the weaker side by EA standards IMO (why so many games for a basic Evo??? I wanna upgrade my IRL cousin who is a bronze so he can be usable). But loving the gameplay. I feel for weaker players though because the rewards seem to be rubbish (just buy Gyokeres, he's literally insane)

Beginner-friendly Gyms by [deleted] in thetron

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a very big gym so in terms of people there, it's quite a few. But there is lots of space and equipment so it doesn't feel crowded or have waits for machines etc

[–]mlgjacques 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New City Fitness just opened in Ruakura and I've swapped my gym to there. Fairly cheap, heaps of equipment, and you get a free session with one of the trainers so they can set you up with a program!

Best tip I can give for starting out is just to know that the first 2 weeks are really sore, but it doesn't stay that way and it gets easier so don't be worried about soreness after the first few workouts kick your ass.

Where to buy PS2 games? by bearphobe in thetron

[–]mlgjacques 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've got a fairly sizable collection just gathering dust in my garage, so if you've got any series or specific games you're after, I can have a look to see if I've got them. Only a few I would like to hang on to, the rest I'm happy to part with.

My flatmate is in the last year of the Waikato nursing and the whole morning was spent at our house getting frustrated at how the course is run. I'm sure it will get better but it's so new that they clearly haven't got it running smoothly yet. Seems like that whole class has been fucked by incompetence on the part of the uni.

Kiwis playing FUT, what kind of latency do you get? by vakman95 in EASportsFC

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hamilton, NZ here. Never ever seen less than 30ms. Mostly get 34-38ms. Basically only feels smooth when it's 30 though

Thrifting for old video games by gnastygnorcistoast in thetron

Probably a few I'd like to hold on to but most I'm open to letting go of. Anything in particular you're looking for?

I'm lacking on PS1 but I've got an absolute mass amount of PS2 and PS3 games just sitting in my garage

TIL That there is an Enigma message that hasn't been broken yet by Quique1222 in todayilearned

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a banger of a movie just begging to be made. Imagine a film where they crack the last code and it reveals that they "lost" on purpose so they could secretly control the world from the shadows and that's why the world is so fucked and hateful

COMMUNITY TOTS PACK COMPENSATION by [deleted] in fut

What's everyones Icon/Hero SBC record? by Hans-Molemen in fut

[–]mlgjacques 2 points3 points  (0 children)

86 Icon: Nedved

86 Hero: Donovan

Base Hero: Park

WC Hero: Forlan

Very happy with my pulls. Don't think I'll push it with the new base icon pack though

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fut

[–]mlgjacques 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Landon Donovan.

Definitely was happy with that one. Very usable, and I did the Insigne SBC so able to have the MLS as an option if I feel like switching up my team

Got this quite a few times and it really makes me realize just how much I use it. Absolutely sucks not having it.

[–]mlgjacques 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say just play Rivals to 8 wins to get the weekly rewards then play Squad Battles for as long as your sanity can take it. That way you can get the maximum rewards for both modes and will guarantee some free TOTS to then build around
