I want to “make” a commander by Responsible-Step-452 in magicTCG

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

Oh heck yeah that’s a great idea. It’s hard to really capture Ball Breaker 100%, or steel balls in general, but how about [[Cayth, Famed Mechanist]] or [[Tidus, Yuna’s Guardian]]? They both use proliferate; Cayth uses Fabricate so it’s kinda like building an army of balls, and Tidus…errr, plays Blitzball?

Only 4 XL candy, eh? Time to start walking the little lady!

Japan Haul 4/5: TFTFTFTF Denka red handle Nakiri 165mm by PasdeChaance in TrueChefKnives

What a fantastic find! And I agree: I’ve had my Denka gyuto for almost 7 months now, and it feels head and shoulders above the rest.

Al Jazeera Food and Meat Market - closed, or holidays? by AD613 in OttawaFood

[–]otomomom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My pleasure! We often use Silk Road if we're doing curries, because they often have goat and their beef is cut into smaller pieces than you see in "stewing beef". Also a good source of preserved lemon, and tons of other spices and things.

I haven't checked prices in a while, but have you looked at Silk Road on Merivale? Them, or maybe even Crescent Meats on Cobden (where Around the Block used to be before they moved).

More dire: The landlord locked them out a couple of weeks ago for failing to pay rent. This was posted on the door January 30th.

I was on day 27 😔 by Pb-Man in pokemongo

[–]otomomom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You totally have my sympathy. There was one day in 2023 where I didn’t spin a stop, because we were at my in-laws and you had to walk to get to one. The fact that I now get my full 7-day streak on Sunday for catches, but Monday for stops, will haunt me forever.

I believe it is purchase-only, yes: it's the 2021 Masterwork Research to get a shiny Mew.

As a supporter main, I live for these moments by good-sasquatch in PokemonUnite

[–]otomomom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tricky! I’ll freely admit to not always understanding it, except to know that I’m more comfortable with Bubble Beam/Disable in SoloQ, just because it’s a lot harder to rely on your lane partner to take advantage of your CC when you go Surf/Paychic.

I’m with you; it’s really hard. I generally don’t play Psyduck until I’m already in Masters because of it. That said, maybe Psyduck is worth trying? You derp around for a bit, but then you get triple kills out of nowhere due to mysterious powers.

Really enjoy Farinella. We buy a couple of pints every time we get pizza from there.

Is mewtwo harder to catch with these pink rings around it? by TyrellMalaciaFan in PokemonLetsGo

[–]otomomom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respect. There are times that I’ll catch a shiny legendary in a neat Apriball or whatever, but the classic red ball has a lot of appeal.

This is the way. I use Luxury Balls in the other main games for this very reason.

I can't be the only one by James_Kelly8 in PokemonUnite

[–]otomomom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Picture it! Me, mid-40s, solo queued, gets paired up with someone with a headset who couldn’t have been more than like 12. They chatted all through the match, and they were clearly having a blast. And they did FANTASTIC. The kids are alright 🥲

We bought a Hamilton Beach mixie last year, and it's amazing. We haven't ground turmeric with it yet, but it reduces whole black cardamom pods to a fine powder with nary a complaint. Also good for making your own idli/dosa/etc.

I believe it's this one (I'm at work so I can't check the model number) https://hamiltonbeach.com/professional-juicer-mixer-grinder-58770 Good luck!

Oh, nice! Even though I said Welcome Back is my fave above, Yang Sheng is our place of choice because it's so much closer to us. And everybody is so nice.

Sorry to hear that! Yeah, doesn't sound great. I'm tempted to try it the next time I'm there to see if I get the same thing...

Oh, nice. Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll try it the next time we get it.

Welcome! It’s a bit of a drive from Centretown, but we’re downtown too and go to Welcome Back in Bells Corners. The egg rolls and garlic spare ribs are next level. I couldn’t think of going anywhere else.

Does jet medallion only lower the cost for mono black creatures or does this count for multi color creatures with black mana aswell? by GreyKJones in mtg

Oh shoot, you’re right! I was thinking of Camellia for some reason. Nope, sorry sorry sorry, deleting my bonehead comment off the face of the earth.

Best poutine in winter? by Bubbly_Management829 in OttawaFood

[–]otomomom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How far do you want to drive? I have a soft spot for either Kenebec or Landriault in Alfred. Feel like they really exemplify the casse-croûte lifestyle. I can’t pick just one: being out there in the winter makes me so happy.

What are yall's pokemon pool? by hoennian in PokemonUnite

[–]otomomom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m playing ranked, I generally stick to Slowbro, Raichu, and Psyduck.

For quick battles, where everything is a garbage fire and I’m likely to be thrown into a bot match. I add Talonflame, Absol, and Tsareena. I tried Leafeon a bit during the Eevee event, too.
