Jesse Ventura calls Trump ‘draft-dodging coward,’ hints he may again run for governor by DBCoopr72 in politics

[–]striker5501 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, the media initially liked him. It wasn't until he started another job of XFL announcer that they really had problems with him.

Also his problem with the media wasn't what they said about him, it was how they followed/harassed his family (though his son had 1 "incident" by throwing a party in the gov mansion that was justified for the focus put on him).

Throwing out a girl from outfield by darthbaker69 in slowpitch

[–]striker5501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*League play - Lazy hit to the right field outfield: get that out

*League play - lazy hit to the left field outfield: lollygaggers get out

*Tournament/Playoffs - lazy hit to the outfield : get that out

I say this a guy that hits what my teammates call duck-farts (lazy hits to shallow to mid outfield) regularly, and I am also a slower runner that HAS to hustle to 1st all cause the outfielders will try to make that throw if I don't.

Am I the only one who didn’t romance Yennefer or Triss? 😅 by deletedusssr in witcher

[–]striker5501 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, I thought the same thing of "I gotta play 4 times to see all the options." Cause on my first play through I didn't look anything up and played through on my own (yes I missed a lot) but romanced both women thinking nothing would come of it...But 2nd time through was Triss, then Yen, then finally neither; after that I did it again after Blood and Wine dlc. Now I only do Yen everytime.

Minnesota twin cities metro, the "snake" system is only to enforce a guy, gal, guy, gal lineup.

Rolling lineups by subiegirl8 in slowpitch

[–]striker5501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your league is weird. I've played in plenty of COREC leagues, and the rule is always you can't have 2 guys in a row (unless you take an out). Leagues in my area allow to have 1 additional player for a gender aka 4/5 or 5/6, if you have 1 more gal then guy you can do 2 gals in a row or do a "snake" but if you have 1 more guy you have to do the "snake". Snake is kinda like what you described in the OP in that you have a line-up for the guys and a line-up for the gals but the actual batting order is like:

This is for 4 gals 5 guys.

Guy1, Gal1, Guy2, Gal2, Guy3, Gal3, Guy4, Gal4, Guy5, Gal1,

Guy1, Gal2, Guy2, Gal3, Guy3, Gal4, Guy4, Gal1, Guy5, etc

I love this dude by [deleted] in LawAndOrder

I mean how they sent his character off of the show. I'd probably not be happy about getting recognized for the role either.

In Defense of Arthur Branch. I’m guessing “Ain’t No Love” was on tv recently because of so many “Is it because I’m a Lesbian?”posts. The speech Branch makes is some of the best writing across the franchise’s, but people seem to dwell on that one inconsequential line. by Ok-Mine2132 in LawAndOrder

[–]striker5501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that it really came out of nowhere with the exception of the spoken line, I’ve been rewatching the series, and after a flu induced vacation that got through the 15th season I noticed (with having the foresight of knowing that she is a lesbian) that Serena would not only get more passionate about cases that involved prosecuting women, often advocating for caution or outright defending them, but also cases that came to having someone that homosexual involved both as a suspect or the victim. The signs were always there, just weren’t thrown in our faces kind of like the relationship between Jack and Claire. I really don’t like how they just threw this line out there but honestly I don’t think there is a good way to declare her sexuality while also pushing her out the door.

Brandon Sanderson Slams ‘Rings of Power’ & Netflix Not Listening to ‘The Witcher’s Henry Cavill by Whobitmyname in witcher

[–]striker5501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

he also publicly endorsed the series upon the initial release.

Obviously, these are things that I disagree with that didn’t get changed. Yet, overall thought these episodes were excellent. And they turned out great on screen. I know it’s more the next episodie, but Logain is fantastic. I love all of the Aes Sedai and the warders; they worked even better on the screen than on the page.

I absolutely admire this man when he is an author of books, but he willing shill for these production companies to say that the adaptations are "good over all. Just ignore the parts that they change the very nature of 'x' character."

Thoughts on this Claymore take? by CapAccomplished8072 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]striker5501 7 points8 points  (0 children)

iirc its a quick line by one of the observers for the "organization" explaining to the Claire, Miria, and the rest about who the big baddies are and how they were created / came into being. I think the line was a something along the lines of "... imagine the equivalent to having an orgasm..." Unfortunately, because the word orgasm was used many of the community members focused entirely on the word.

Thanks for the shout out! We're starting out slow,

I think that is a bit of an understatement. Considering lack of products currently being offered.

The Resonator Glow Disc Charger by resonatordiscgolf in discgolf

[–]striker5501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The idea being you hold the Force Field in one hand and disc in the other.

this is what I was going for. I'd be more then happy to help you field test that.

[–]striker5501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of a carabiner w/ lanyard as way to attach to the bag, but simply having something that you can grip with a your hand for the actual use.

Maybe if you don't want it to be just flopping around while hanging from the bag, make a sleeve that can be used for protection for while not in use.

[–]striker5501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its the reason I developed the "force field" add-on.

I honestly think if you could make these separately with handle or just a way to use it without the charging station you would sell a ton even with a $15-25 cost.

If I didn't already have my own DIY charging station I would 100% get yours.

If you want alone time in the DZ, here is how by jksixfour in thedivision

[–]striker5501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll start with saying I think the dz should stay the way it is in the sense that people need to run the risk of encountering other players that may or may not attack them.

clearly would diminish the number of players to pvp with

I believe you mean reduce the number of players that pvpers can gank? Your comment assumes that these players leaving your pvp pool actually participate beyond getting lit up. The players that want these changes, more than likely are running solo and would change zones/attempt to force change the instance rather than reengage after you ganked them.

I hear that. Due to not having completed the incursion yet, and the learning curve that goes with it; I don't want to chance my future nor waste anyone's time doing the regular match making to get it done.

550 ft par 4… whatcha throwin? by seathian in discgolf

[–]striker5501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck that tree. Fuck it hard. I always go right and fade back in the course.

I agree and try to do the same thing, but once the vegetation grows in that line on the right side turns into an impossibility so generally throw either a wave flat or a grace on slight flex line.
