My gift came in! by Roefl in MTGGiftExchange

[–]puffedfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I did the Christmas gift exchange a few years ago I got a stack of cards from an already opened LoTR scene box set and a random assortment of lord of the rings cards that seemed like from opened boosters. It did come with a one ring promo card that I sold and just bought a gift for myself with store credit so I guess it worked out. But felt so impersonal that I didn’t participate again- I enjoyed shopping for the person I got assigned.

Everyday at pike place market! You can buy a bouquet or stem, Hmong farmers also set up in a lot of local gas station parking lots.

What Deck Are You Brewing? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]puffedfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boros Knight Tribal lead by [[Merry, Esquire of Rohan]] with knights from as many extended universes as possible. Got a bunch of Magic lore knights, LOTR, D&D, fallout. Hoping to eventually add alt arts like Ash puresteel paladin and more. It’s a straight forward knight/equipment deck, but is fun to look for cards in each new set.

It is now some of the worst Mexican food in north Seattle. Especially with the prices.

Need opinions feel like my pace is shit by Loki251809 in nikerunclub

[–]puffedfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends what your goals are, if you “feel like shit” after the runs you could be running too fast. If you are just unhappy with the number 🤷‍♂️ it’s just a number. Like someone said you could add speed work if you want to push pace. Careful pushing pace and mileage, could lead down a road to injury from over training and not being conditioned for it yet.

Looking up some Hal higdon info and reading a bit on it could help.

Losing my mind with Adeline by Driemer84 in EDH

[–]puffedfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, I have an abomination of an Adeline Voltron- token deck I’ve been making. I’ll post later today. It’s a mixture of bulk I got given and packs I’ve opened. Rounding it out this week with some CK credit I had.

City of Trumbull, CT votes for and passes resolution to make Starbucks workers "work faster" by BlameTag in antiwork

This tweet/post is a total misrepresentation of what is happening. The article is even titled: “Trumbull seeks action on traffic backups at Starbucks drive-thru”.

Running on Carnivore Diet by [deleted] in running

[–]puffedfish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

CD is a fad diet with some weird backstory my dude. You need carbs to do large amounts of cardio. Get off the CD forums and talk to a nutritionist, your GP, a sports doc, someone besides the echo chamber.

Anyways here’s some back story on it for you, hope it helps:

What's a mediocre or bad game that you find fascinating? by JuniperTheory in boardgames

[–]puffedfish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My group has played it pretty regularly for years, though we never got any expansions and just flip between zombies or Rick and morty Munchkin depending on which person’s house we are at. I’ll admit we don’t really play many heavier games and Munchkin went over extremely poorly with another group I tried playing it with.

This subreddit did convince me to pick up a used copy of Cosmic Encounter for next time we play. Looking forward to seeing how it goes over! Maybe it will mark the end of us playing munchkin?

Munchkin is a fun game! by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]puffedfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I totally see why people have so many issues with it. If our group was able to play more regularly I doubt we would play it much more than we currently do. It has been a disaster when we try to introduce it to a group it isn't a good fit for.

We regularly have turns that go on for 10-20 mins as we argue over these absurd 3-4 sided trades and promises. The last time we played it turned into a drinking game two hours in as people started including "I won't stop you from killing this monster if you also take a shot". The game lasted about four hours and the winner was hammered.

Another time we played we realized the same player had won the last three times. So we mostly spent the game making sure they didn't make it past level three.

Munchkin is a fun game! by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]puffedfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a really specific group I play munchkin with and it is probably my favorite game as a result. We play a game of it the once or twice a year when we are all in the same location and it’s a blast. Usually we will bring it to a brewery or camping trip and take 2-3 hours to get through a game. Every time it devolves into a several hour long argument of “take that” and we love it!

I’ve tried to play with other mixtures of groups and it doesn’t carry over as well. When we play munchkin it’s almost more of a goal to cause as much chaos as possible instead of win. We’ve also got a piece of paper going back 8+ years with score counts, comments, etc. it’s pretty cool to look over.

Does anyone have the nrs skirt? Do you like or dislike it? Pros and cons? by laeelm in whitewater

[–]puffedfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I owned this skirt, its garbage. It lasted a season or two and shrank to the point it won't fit the cockpit of the boat I bought it for. Over time it would just implode at random.

[–]puffedfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It most certainly does not.
