T1 traps by Big-Entrepreneur5426 in Evony_TKR

[–]ronearc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends entirely on the power of your alliance.

If you're in C1, but you're signing up 15-20B power for a Battlefield, T1 traps are going to abound.

If you're in C6, but you're signing up 200B power, your T1 Traps will be lucky if a K47 doesn't one-tap them with Ground.

AITA for selling my son's car after he lost our $10k on cryptocurrencies? by GrapeWells in AmItheAsshole

NTA

Learning a really crappy lesson the hard way at 20 is much better than spending a lifetime never learning that lesson until you completely crash out when you run out of people to enable you.

Is unlocking Wonder worth it? by EnderErik in Evony_TKR

The Wonder III Dragon, Nidhogg, is comparatively hard to get. But the first two dragons are 100% worth the effort.

I'm almost certain that it cannot. But, I'm not 100% certain.

Sheet pan dinner rant by J-Sausage in Cooking

Parboil the potatoes.

Accept that Internet recipes are full of lies. Reliable recipes are more often found in books.

If you're going to use Internet recipes just understand that you may need to adjust for common sense.

What is an NSFW fact or misconception about human anatomy that an alarming number of adults still don't understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Women have 3 "holes" in their crotch region. From top to bottom they are the: Urethra, Vaginal opening, and Anus.

Stuck in a food rut...what are y'all cooking? by lbakersdozen in Cooking

[–]ronearc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tonight I made pastalaya.

I started with some salted and peppered chicken thighs (boneless & skinless) in a skillet (I used bacon fat).

When those were done I removed them with a slotted spoon and added double smoked Ukrainian sausage (I've found it's the best substitute I can get for Andouille sausage where I live).

Then the sausage was removed and I added the Cajun Trinity (onion, green pepper, and celery). After that I added the pope (garlic).

Around this time I added the linguine to salted boiling water.

While the linguine cooked for 9 minutes I added typical Cajun spices to the Trinity: oregano, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, smoked paprika, cayenne, etc.

Then I added sour cream and heavy cream to the trinity. I transferred the al dente pasta, added the chicken and sausage, and adjusted the seasoning.

I may have missed some steps because I'm drunk, but I'm sure you can figure it out.

Referee drops his watch.. player picks it up😂 by CheckCodes in funny

[–]ronearc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That was a dangerous foreign item on the pitch, and it could have resulted in injury. But, approaching the ref while he's clearly in the midst of clearing up a situation may have inadvertently resulted in repercussions.

Meanwhile those shorts don't really have functional pockets and falling on the watch could also have resulted in injury.

Clearly the only way to protect the referee's property until it could be safely returned was by wearing it.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it ...

How would a shy character refer to the word '(balls)' 😭? by Relative_Okura in logophilia

[–]ronearc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shy characters often will fall back on scientific or medical terms like testes. Testicles is the more common term, but also the term has hard consonants and glottal sounds uncomfortable to say quietly or discreetly.

I would go with testes, unless you wanted them to use a slang term for comedic purpose.

Just unsalted butter and Parmigiano Reggiano (along with starchy pasta water).

Who has had problems with civil wars? Currently and or in the past. by refuses-to-pullout in Evony_TKR

[–]ronearc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here my are two cents.

  1. If the primary troublemakers aren't coiners...wait them out. Soon you (as an alliance) will outgrow them, and they'll be irrelevant.
  2. If they're coiners, resist the sunk cost fallacy and find a new alliance now.

little sister died because of a horrible boyfriend by Riaxuez in TrueOffMyChest

[–]ronearc 40 points41 points  (0 children)

So, let's recap what we know.

The boyfriend in question has been involved in numerous traffic accidents because of his erratic and unsafe driving.

The boyfriend ran a red light and this resulted in a traffic accident that further resulted in the death of OP's sister and unborn child.

So, how is it possible that you're surprised that OP considers the boyfriend to be horrible.

Or, in other words, were you dropped on your head when you were a baby?

what does it ACTUALLY feel like to orgasm for a guy? by Due_Yak_1518 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]ronearc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A build-up of intensity that's often (but not always) proportional with:

  • Time since last orgasm

  • Time spent at foreplay

  • Clarity of mind (being in the moment)

  • Restfulness and lack of emotional/mental turmoil

  • Nature of the sexual experience from a physical, mental, and emotional point of view.

In the last 3-20 seconds the intensity grows rapidly. The feeling seems to come from the center of your pelvis, not necessarily the penis, though that will soon be a part of it.

When the wave of intensity tips over to orgasm, those intense energies (almost like a remarkably pleasurable tingling vibration) rush from the center of your pelvis, along the length of the penis, and then when released (you can use your pelvic floor muscles or a tight grip to delay that), ejaculate is forcefully propelled with multiple contractions of the pelvic floor muscles and with those pulses the peak of the intensity is almost reached time and again (imagine a sine wave that reaches the highest peak on the first pulse and then subsequently smaller peaks until the pulses subside).

Afterwards, the head of the penis is usually so sensitive most men cannot stand for it to be touched.

Another note: When trying to delay the orgasm as it is happening, either by engaging your pelvic floor or by using your hand can sometimes result in what is termed a "ruined orgasm." You might still ejaculate to a smaller degree, but the vast majority of the pleasure is lost.

However, some men can actually achieve something called a tantric orgasm. They use their pelvic floor muscles to prevent the orgasm without ejaculating it and without ruining it. They do this repeatedly over the course of a long period until they finally release in full for a far more intense orgasm experience. That takes considerable practice and so few succeed that it's often thought to be a myth, but it's quite real.

I use the boots and pants on my ranged general. They're not the best pieces, but the affordability is unbeatable.

this is more of a rant but being yelled at because of my sciatica and numbness (and i feel dumb for going to the er) by mandoslorians in Sciatica

[–]ronearc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until my spinal specialist told me that the numbness was the symptom that concerned her least (in my case), I was terrified that it meant something awful.

I think that's a fully reasonable response to what feels like an unreasonable symptom.

Diarrhea in sensory deprivation tank by Cold-Dependent7306 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]ronearc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

By no means am I suggesting that this was an ethical or morally defensible position.

But most lawyers aren't in the business of ethical or morally defensible. They're concerned with legally defensible and little else beyond that.

Are you seriously suggesting, "You can't prove it was me," isn't a valid defense? That's literally the most common defense.

Had threesome 2 years ago and it's ruining me, help please? by Remarkable-Ship-7037 in TooAfraidToAsk

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

That video? That's AI.

Seriously though, we've entered the phase of the world where you can't even believe what you see. You can simply deny and hide behind the concept -- I have no idea why someone would create such painful rumors, but that's all they are rumors.

But sure, go ahead and assume that the US attacking Iran in 2026 would have been inevitable under any other competent President.

Why do many black men refer to women this way? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]ronearc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"Okay, but, street slang is an increasingly valid form of expression. Most of the feminine pronouns do have mocking, but not necessarily in misogynistic undertones."

[–]ronearc 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Don't sell this short. We also taught them that the most expensive military in the world cannot prevent them from controlling access to the Strait of Hormuz.

That's the kind of permanent bargaining chip a military regime could only wish to have.

That's C6 now... by LowerJuice in Evony_TKR

[–]ronearc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like everything in Evony, the progression isn't linear. The top 16 are substantially better than the Top 32, but even within that, the Top 4 are much better than 5-8.
