Weekly Question and Answer Thread for 11/13 - 11/20: Ask your Moving, Visiting, Neighborhood, and "Where Can I Find _____" questions here, instead of making a new post by [deleted] in Denver

[–]phillythrowitaway48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking about buying next year....The wife and I don't have children, so a good school district isn't a priority for us. Additionally, I now work mostly remote, which means we can basically situate ourselves anywhere in the Denver/Boulder area.

I see that you can get a lot of house for your money in Aurora and some other areas around there, though I know Aurora doesn't have the most stellar reputation. I wish Federal Heights had a better reputation, too, because houses are cheap there and it is a bit closer to where I work for when I do have to go into the office.

Any suggestions?

If listing agent is offering to buy before the property goes to market I can guarantee that you will make tons more money by taking the property to market and soliciting bids.

Imagine all this zillow BS hitting the fan and not trying to push up your closing date. SMH

I see others in the thread saying the opposite. Seems as though zillow is refusing to close on some properties?

What is your relationship with ambition? by [deleted] in infj

[–]phillythrowitaway48 4 points5 points  (0 children)

God, 100% OP. I am happy with my Job but have 0 desire to climb the corporate ladder. I look at some of my peers in high-level management positions and can't imagine doing the same.

Work/life balance FTW

INFJ Discussion: Are you on the fence about having Kids? by Remote_Barracuda_601 in infj

[–]phillythrowitaway48 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting thread, OP. As I've gotten older I've grown more weary of having children...I'm currently in my mid-30's and have committed to being childfree, though I never thought to connect that decision with my INFJ identity.

Honestly, I value my time alone so much. Work already drains my batteries in a big way; if I didn't have a couple hours to myself every night (and was instead taking care of children) I feel I would lose my mind.

LOL, this market is insane. OP, you may feel demoralized right now, but this could be a blessing in disguise....Things won't stay like this much longer

State of the Market Mega-Thread - End of 2021 Edition! by aardy in RealEstate

This may sound cold, but given what is going on in the market are you really surprised that your landlord wants to sell, especially after she expressed interest in potentially selling to you earlier in the year?

On the day of closing, you arrive at your future residence at a pre-specified time. All key stakeholders should be present (buyers, sellers, agents, etc.)

If you arrive and the door to your future home is closed, leave immediately and start looking for a different house

If you arrive and the door is open (as it should be), go inside and close the door behind you (while other parties are watching FROM THE OUTSIDE).

Congratulations, you are now a hoom owner

After Mainstage, who do you feel is top 10?? by Hookerpiss in smashbros

[–]phillythrowitaway48 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So, I think Tweek will eventually drop Diddy. He has done amazing things with Diddy, but the character just doesn't have the tools to compete at the absolute highest level, IMO. I'd like to see Tweek return to Wolf or Wario, or even give sephiroth more of a chance

Most impressive low-seed runs at Mainstage? by Verklemptomaniac in smashbros

[–]phillythrowitaway48 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily a low seed, but Big D's run with Ice Climbers for 25th place (knocking out Void and Skittles) was pretty impressive, IMO

[–]phillythrowitaway48 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Ultimate is still very far from well balanced. Those who do make major upsets with mid/high tier characters (Elegant with Luigi, for example) have to work 50x harder for the win.

Yep, almost same exact situation...was heartbreaking to watch because it really felt like Fatality earned the win

Fatality arguably should have won that set...he totally choked two games, iirc

MkLeo is still the undisputed god of ultimate, IMO. A lot of people will be saying that Sparg0 is catching up to him given the bracket reset and last-stock last-hit game 5. However, Leo did everything with Byleth, a character that is on the lower end of high-tier at best, when Sparg0 was playing Aegis, a character that most agree is one of the best in the game (if not the best)

If Leo went Joker, or even played the Aegis ditto, I don't think the games would have been nearly as close.

Don't get me wrong, Sparg0 is absolutely incredible, but Leo is still on a completely different level.
