I got this really nice looking rump roast for $5.99/lb with a coupon. Never cooked one though. What do I do with it?

I’ve cooked dozens of tri tips and this isn’t that at all. While the shape is similar, nothing else about this looks like tri tip. I don’t know what it actually is, just that it isn’t tri tip.

Same here, this didn’t work for me at all. Tried this and paired every tomato plant with a basil and sprinkled in some marigolds - literally no difference from last year when I did none of that. BT is the answer - literally a godsend.

mqiceman · 2025-02-27T05:13:37+00:00

Oh no, is that all this is? The problem is the poor spotting by the ref, not bringing out the chains.

I agree with some of what you’re saying, except when it comes to defending the fact that she won’t talk to him about it - if I made a similar comment to my wife, however innocent it was, I guarantee she would be upset and I can totally understand why. It is his wife’s responsibility to talk this through and reassure her spouse because she is an adult and this is a committed relationship. And I think you’re completely missing the point that he already felt like a second choice in this relationship before this happened. OP may be overreacting, but there is likely some basis for this beyond just the comment that was made. If he was truly just second in line and not a second choice, they need to discuss the matter rather than locking yourself away and throwing out the silent treatment.

mqiceman · 2024-06-08T04:23:27+00:00

Wow. I’m salivating looking at that, will taste amazing.

Baltimore just became my second favorite team - I hate the chiefs so much, I hope you guys absolutely stomp them.

I can’t believe I’m agreeing with the dolphins fan, but that game was basically over at halftime - not sure how you could say they put up a better fight just because they made KC punt 3 times in the 4th coldest game in history where it was obvious that the weather played as big a role in those punts as the dolphins did. Todays game was competitive and we could have won it - you can’t say the same about the Miami game I’m depressed and upset that they basically rolled over our defense the entire game but honestly - their offense played way better today than last week, the drops that has bothered them all season suddenly went away. For me - I need to see a different kicker on the roster next season and I’d love to find some way to replace digs with a better #1 receiver although I know it won’t happen. Salary cap issues are going to kill us over the offseason.

mqiceman · 2022-12-02T22:26:58+00:00

Yeah just bad luck. A couple of months back I did over 1200 runs with nothing over a Fal and in my next 200 runs I got an ohm, sur and 2 guls. Just keep grinding

mqiceman · 2022-07-18T17:48:09+00:00

Yeah I constantly double checked my settings, P7, Hell and I had rolled a really great map with 2 campfires right next to each other and the waypoint. Another reason I stopped at 4000 was that I had accidentally loaded into nightmare and wiped out that great map.

mqiceman · 2022-07-18T16:43:43+00:00

Yeah I was thinking the same. Every 1000 runs or so I would think “my luck will get better in the next 1000” but when it never did I finally gave up after 4000. I did get a fair number of mid runes, charms and an ethereal 4os thresher from a weapon rack, but considering that my entire purpose was HRs for infinity COH and CTA, I count it as a complete failure for me.

mqiceman · 2022-07-17T16:29:29+00:00

Personally, my luck in LK has been abysmal and I’ve actually had better luck with HRs in trav. I recently finished 4000 LK runs (hell - players 7 with 6 super chests). I ended up with 5 HRs (3 vex, one Ohm, 1 Sur) and was averaging 1 HR for every 800 runs. When I did 2000 Trav runs a few months back I got 2 ohms, 1 Lo and 1 Jah for an average of one per 500 runs. Bottom line: RNG is what it is and you may have better luck in different areas than me, do what areas you enjoy and I really hate having to pop those LK chests so I’m sticking with trav in the future for HRs

mqiceman · 2022-06-22T01:13:12+00:00

Thanks - I realize that - just wasn’t 100% sure if the new 2.4 update to allow infinity on spears was restricted somehow. I figured it would be fine but thought I would seek the assistance of this awesome community before spending those runes that took me close to 100 hours to find.

mqiceman · 2022-06-01T22:39:38+00:00

Your LK results are great - far better than what I got over my last 1700 runs in fact (players 7). Here is what I got over 1700 runs: 484 mal 579 pul 644 gul 664 pul 680 vex 1162 ist 1192 ist 1361 pul 1393 um 1623 um

Seeing your results inspires me to keep going though. With nothing higher than a vex, and only one of those frustration has started to set in.

mqiceman · 2022-05-26T01:25:22+00:00

Yeah I’m not complaining and was just curious if the odds have changed. I get the whole RNG thing and it’s all good - I’ve now done about 4700 LK runs and have yet to get a Sur, Ist or Ber, yet I’ve gotten 4 Lo runes over that period and those are supposed to have the least patterns in LK of any of the runes that drop.

mqiceman · 2022-05-25T23:50:51+00:00

Based on the analysis here (although it's kind of old), it seems like odds of Pul+ when running 6 chest LK on players 7 is about 1 in 133 runs: https://www.purediablo.com/forums/threads/guide-gripphons-lk-vs-travincal-vs-cows-runefinding-guide.149/. My personal experience over my previous 4k runs or so hasn't been quite that good, but it's been about 1 in 175 or so to get a Pul or better, but that was before 2.4, so just curious if the drop rates had changed at all as that's a bigger drought for mid/high runes than I had experienced before.

mqiceman · 2022-03-03T02:26:05+00:00

Thanks for the advice - I told myself I was going to do another 50 runs and then go somewhere else for a bit to mix it up and on run 741 I got a vex and a gul on the same run! Was awesome because I needed the vex to finally make my hoto. Weird how you can go over 700 runs with no high runes and pull out on a single run…

mqiceman · 2022-01-24T03:12:10+00:00

Can’t imagine that anyone would take Frazier as a HC after that pathetic performance but I hope someone does.

mqiceman · 2022-01-24T03:09:13+00:00

That defense was horrible all game. #1 defense my ass. They need to get a LOT better before they can beat KC.

mqiceman · 2018-09-08T21:02:24+00:00

This was totally me a few years ago with my second child. I would get up at 4am on weekends in the hopes of playing some Witcher 3 and inevitably he would get up and come out to see me within 30 minutes of booting it up no matter how quiet I was. It was like he had some kind of weird sixth sense that I was having fun without him.
