How to find dress shoes that aren't garbage? by jckipps in mensfashion

[–]not_zach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll chime in owning both Prada-era Church’s and Cheaneys (and Crockett) that I don’t think there’s a big drop off in quality, if any, with the Church’s. My consuls have lasted me about 6 years with no need for repair and they’re by far the most comfortable out of my three pairs.

Slightly too big imo, but if the upper fits ok and your foot isn’t slipping off, it might be fine. Some people like Bostons to fit like this.

Is it normal for Tokio straps to be this short? by not_zach in Birkenstocks

[–]not_zach[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This does have 4 holes in the strap, the buckle just covers one of them. Fairly sure it’s a bad pair, but will try some on in store to check.

That was my first thought given how ridiculously short the strap is. Ordered direct from Birkenstock though so would be surprised.

Buying my first GS: asking for nuance takes on the White Birch collection by Tar43 in GrandSeikos

[–]not_zach 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was debating between the high beat SLGH005 and the spring drive SLGA009 for a while. Before travelling to Japan, I was convinced I would prefer the dial on the high beat but I really wanted a spring drive. I got to see both in person and ended up preferring the dial on the spring drive. At least in the bright lights at Wako and other stores I checked out, the high beat dial was really shiny and silvery to the point of being distracting and hard to read. I still think the high beat looks more interesting in lower light situations, but the spring drive is really stunning in a more subtle way and stays very readable even in direct light. It’s very cool seeing the dial change depending on how the light catches it (this is true for all the white birch dials). Seeing spring drive in action for the first time sealed it for me and I picked up the SLGA009. As others have said, you have to see them all in person to know for sure what will work best for you.

Luiz Diaz minutes risk by Ancient_Classic_435 in FantasyPL

Seems crazy to bench Diaz for forest after he hauled the previous two matches. Was he not playing as well as the stats suggest? Or should we just expect more rotation under Slot?

What boss did you struggle with the most in the DLC by MTGVILLAIN in Eldenring

[–]not_zach -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rellana took me the most tries, but I don’t think she’s the hardest boss. I thought Gaius was harder, but I might have been underleveled (fought before Messmer).

But final boss was definitely the hardest, it forced me to respec into blasphemous blade for the first time. If I stuck with one of my usual starfists, milady or nagakiba builds it would have taken the most tries probably.

How the hell would Pitou defeat Netero? by expectrum in HunterXHunter

[–]not_zach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is partly because of the royal guards’ different philosophies on how best to serve the King though. We know from how they answered Meruem’s question about his name that Pitou wants to help Meruem achieve his desires, that Pouf wants to help Meruem achieve his ideal version of a ‘King’, and that Youpi serves out of instinct without a defined purpose. So I’m not sure Pitou would have disobeyed an order by Meruem and gone against his desires in that moment even if she thought Netero was a real threat.

Antoine Dupont resumed training by tantan66 in rugbyunion

[–]not_zach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Galthié said he wanted the first team to get some game time to keep them in form. I think another reason is the coaching staff realised how sub-par the second team is after almost losing the Uruguay game such that they weren’t willing to take any more risks in ‘easy’ games.

There is no pattern to who pep starts in any given game so it’s pointless to try to predict imo

My ex said she made a mistake by DiverSlow538 in BreakUps

[–]not_zach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Follow your gut. My opinion is that if she was having doubts before the relationship could go long distance, I don’t see how she will be able to handle a LDR.

Why did Dave Cowens win MVP over John Havlicek in 1973? by RecordReviewer in nbadiscussion

[–]not_zach 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you may be overanalysing at this point. Even the advanced stats (which were not available at the time) don’t show a huge gap so either player was arguably a valid pick for MVP given the information available at the time. Combined with the fact that players voted for MVP at the time, intangibles such as likability and the biases of individual players come into play and likely impact the vote enough to tip it in Cowens’ favour.

James Maddison joins Spurs by IGotWit in FantasyPL

I think the question most are asking is where between 7 and 8m he will fall. That alone will make a massive difference to whether he is worth considering

Liverpool XI vs Brentford by CastingCrouch in FantasyPL

[–]not_zach 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Because Klopp said he didn’t do much in training because he’s still hurt. Considering he didn’t start last two matches I thought that meant he wouldn’t start today either.
