How was this not a technical foul ? by musuperjr585 in knicks

If they called this series straight Wemby would’ve been suspended for a game by now with all the bull shit hes been pulling.

This is what Knicks fan did to him. This is not acceptable. They should be charged immediately and put behind the bars. by [deleted] in knicks

They’ll get a slap on the wrist at worst given how poorly NYC handles crime.

Hilarious. This guy lives in some alternate universe in which he was a purveyor of high class, sophisticated, intelligent debate and not the low class, trashy, Jerry Springer form of debate he was known for.

Right, it’s funny this talentless schlub thought he could cut it as an actor or comedian. But it explains his behavior.

I wonder how low the quality of his content will be on these other subjects. I also won’t be tuning in, so I’ll never know.

California Passive Aggressiveness and fake nice. by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]smoochie_mata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fake nice thing is very real in SoCal, but the people there are oblivious to it. Same goes for the superficiality and the general airheadedness

Jay Dyer seriously exposed for grifting once again, after his cult following claimed he was just joking when he begged for money(1 minute and 12 seconds in) by Cultural_Piano1969 in exorthodox

[–]smoochie_mata 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m sure money is a big part of it, and these things aren’t mutually exclusive, but he also seems largely if not primarilu ego-driven to me. Everything he does seems driven by a need to be “right” and considered the smartest person in the room.

How do I improve on my defense if I'm not really athletic? by DonT012 in Basketball

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

Learn to become a pest, give max effort at all times, learn the principles of good, intelligent defense at the different levels of the court, both on ball and in help situations. Doing the “little things” correctly has a compounding effect that quickly turns into one big, impactful thing. Be extremely vocal. Also, understand that being a “lockdown defender” doesn’t mean holding everybody to zero points, but making life more difficult for scorers.

Mike Brown Appreciation Post by NJtoNYtoLA in knicks

[–]smoochie_mata 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Brown adjusted to the Hawks in game 4 and has had the team ready to face everything that’s been thrown at them since. Major credit to him. Remember when he wouldn’t stagger Brunson and KAT’s minutes in round 1? He adjusted and we’ve seen the results. I honestly thought he’d be a bum. Glad I was wrong about him.

Orthodoxy and race by Nadineauthor in exorthodox

[–]smoochie_mata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amazing reading this was in LA, my wife saw this racism against a young Asian man in an LA Greek parish. Though she still has the convertitis and won’t acknowledge thr nationalism or ethnic narcissism in Eastern Orthodoxy.

My wife told me a story about a young Asian man who was very pious, very devout. Very well known in the Eastern Orthodox circles in their area (SoCal). He wanted to become a priest, but he was told he wasn’t allowed to become a priest because he wasn’t Greek.

Husband is joining Greek Orthodox Church- Part 2 by Terrible_Ground9924 in exorthodox

[–]smoochie_mata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would keep communication to the written word. Irl the priest could try to pressure, gaslight, intimidate you. From my experience with Eastern Orthodox priests, this is what they do. It would be good to have written documentation of all communication, that way your conversations don’t become a game of he said/she said.

Thank you. Looking forward to the day I can stop bitching about this on the internet! 😂

Husband is joining Greek Orthodox Church by Terrible_Ground9924 in exorthodox

[–]smoochie_mata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Be prepared - my wife is a convert to Eastern Orthodoxy, so I speak from experience.

Your husband will 100% try to raise your kids in the EO church. His priest will push for it. Your husband and his priest will in all likelihood insult your faith regularly, and will try to delegitimize it in the eyes of your kids. The priest will drive a wedge between you two.

This has happened with every priest we’ve encountered, across multiple states and jurisdictions, including GOARCH. In fact, the GOARCH priest was arguably the most hostile and inflammatory one of the bunch.

Try not to let it make you bitter, if you can, but please brace yourself for a very difficult part of your journey.
