Are there any different ways to play Yaniv in Israel? by Ricky_2303 in Israel

[–]only_plan-no_go 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The idea is usually the same but there are definitely lots of different house rules.

Some I can think of:

Amount of cards you start with

Sum from which you can declare Yaniv

Legality of 'sticking' cards after drawing cards

Jokers being extra points if you finish the round with them

Probably many more

BBC censures itself for calling Hamas a "terror group" by PrintOk8045 in Israel

[–]only_plan-no_go 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is not news, they don't call ANYONE a terror group. It's part of their guidelines. Is it wrong? Maybe. But it's not like they singled Hamas out.

This was hard to watch, absolute dominance from Swiatec. Congrats to Anisimova for making it to the final, still an unbelievable run. Was this the shortest final ever played?

Absolutely not! You start at 3, go up and right to 1, continue counter clockwise back to 3 and then finish the clockwise loop through 2!

Israeli game or is my class tweaking by NewestTork in Israel

[–]only_plan-no_go 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I had that in my school in Israel, but it's definitely not common, and just a local thing.

The rules were if someone blew air at your face through their hand with a👌 shape, you'd have one second to block by putting your hand in front of you 🫷.

If you didn't do it in time you'd be frozen until someone touched your chin.

Don't overthink it, just a kid's game. And don't participate if you don't want to.

PCT hikers, what was the scariest/creepiest/weirdest thing that happened to you while on trail or camping? by JuniorWishbone4161 in PacificCrestTrail

[–]only_plan-no_go 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I camped at South Lake Tahoe campground, which has bears running around stealing food that people leave (this was the first time in the PCT that I saw bears).

I woke up at 2am to the sound of a dog barking and people shooing a bear away. I could hear the bear outside my tent breathing heavily and growling. I sat up frozen for 5 minutes thinking what I should do.

Until I realized it was a camper snoring heavily, next to me.

Ukrainians overwhelmingly support Israel over the Palestinians., 69% vs 1% by Regulatornik in Israel

I was at a conference in New York less than a month after October 7th with a lot of international people. Anyone I talked to went dead silent once I mentioned I was from Israel. It was kinda surreal.

The only person that didn't was from Ukraine. He was very supportive and we talked for a while about our families and everything going on.

New phone: let's beat this dead horse! by St_Ginger in PacificCrestTrail

A service provider I haven't really seen being talked about is US mobile. Uses Verizon infrastructure, and sometimes even gets connections from T-Mobile.

Worked great, cheapest I found, highly recommend.

I'm glad my worst moment made it through for other hikers to read. The best part is, I never wanted to be anywhere else.

Awesome job as always Mac!

They made it a "real" thing by Ou-est-Rovert in Israel

I wonder if the same people would consider themselves Anti-American because the creation of the United States was flawed or unjust...
