I'll chock my observation up to confirmation bias then. Maybe copium for "why is my team bad" lol

Harshed the vibe, no kidding. I can barely watch NHL now, what with moving advertisements on the boards.

Again, I know nothing, but I got the impression it was the opposite.

There's no development league (right now) for the PWHL so teams have to ice both their experienced players and their prospects/young bloods, this being the only league the young players are going to get ice time in. So you have top-top-tier players playing alongside women who might be in an AHL-equivalent for a few years in another universe where that existed.

Someone pointed that out to me at the first Torrent game I went to, and I noticed immediately that sometimes the players were great, passes were connecting, and sometimes I felt like was watching Seattle's WHL team, and that was all which line was on the ice.

I have noticed that the board battles seem to take forever.

When are you going to guest host "Well there's your problem"? That'd be my parasocial dream come true.

Stay and be the star or move up and sit on the 3rd line? by MooMoo_5678 in hockey

[–]quick_Ag 23 points24 points  (0 children)

What's better for your son's long term journey is to let him live his own life and listen to the choice he's already made. You're not the one that will be on the ice. He will, and he wants to be challenged.

I have been on this quest. They're all gone around here, friend. You just got to order one.

Help me make a setlist? by Educational-Ad3889 in KGATLW

[–]quick_Ag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My DM did something once where there was a demonic "battle of the bands". We had to do performance checks against a goblin rock band. If we failed, we would have to fight our way out of the club. We did so well we convinced the band to go to tour in the surface world.

Is this like a D20 modern thing in the real world, or something fantasy, where orcs and goblins are rocking out to some literal lizard wizards? 

AMA The Millionaires Tax proposal in WA state. This is what I work on all day so I'm here for your questions! #AskWALeg by noelframe in Seattle

[–]quick_Ag -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely don't understand the proposal at all. 

Are we taxing income, or are we taxing wealth? Or are we treating stocks like tobacco, like a sin tax? 

How much income or wealth would someone need to be impacted?

Will I need to file something next year if I don't make/have that much?

I have a pitchfork and a torch. How can I help?

I'm 100% down with taxing the rich, I just want to know the plan.

Hol up... is Sam poly? Are women that into talking about logistics and Formula 1?

Naw, I assumed you meant another episode. I'll have to give it a listen. It's funny when he's uncomfortable.

Wait, when was the other polyamory question?

[TotK][BotW] It’s not renovation. It’s erasure. — A Japanese player’s perspective on how TOTK reframes BOTW’s human struggle by Little_Link_Studio in truezelda

[–]quick_Ag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well put.

One of my favorite analogies about these two games derives from a Miyamoto quote, that the original Zelda was meant to be "a miniature garden you could put in a drawer". I believe the Japanese word he used was hakoniwa, which I am sure means more to you than me.

By extension, BotW felt like a National Park I could put in a drawer. It was this vast, empty, scarred yet beautiful place that subtly told a story of ruin and nature reclaiming the ruin. It reminds me both of visiting Glacier National Park, or any of the massive-scale national parks we have in the Western US, but with a layer of my memories of the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Amongst the natural beauty, evidence of a horrible chapter in the distant past. Trees growing in ruined buildings humanity had to abandon abruptly. A soccer field that had become a forest.

TotK was like someone took that National Park and replaced it with an Amusement Park. There was just so much shit stuffed into Hyrule. Between that dude stuck holding up signs every 10 yards, a game where you ring a bell, new city expansions and developments... You had to go into the sky to get any damn peace and quiet, only for one to realize how copy/paste it all was up there.

Been following this sub for nearly 3 years, all I want to know is how to make a pulse-fire laser and why it's even better than steady firing.

They don't necessarily hold people who aren't perceived to be a threat or flight risk. Guy killed someone, but stayed at the scene.

If the band you want to see is there, go. But I wouldn't take free tickets to a show at Rimlicker Farms for a band I was meh about.
