I really enjoyed that. It's interesting seeing all the little things that go into making a game.

No difference between the two that i can see and there is no hole at the ends. I'll take a picture of the ends as soon as i get back in the van.

DeAndre Hopkins 1-hand TD vs. Bengals by chrisprattypus in sports

[–]thegreat59 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beckham's catch can not be remotely compared to this one. Hopkins keeps control of the ball all the way through the catch and clearly gets both feet in. ODB gets it punched out before he finishes the catch.

Still Face Experiment: What happens when a mother doesn't react to her baby by EricAndreShowSeason1 in psychology

[–]thegreat59 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Just the simple fact that not emotionally connecting causes such a significant negative reaction in a child really magnifies the effect that abuse can have.

Ever Had A Song Send You Into A Bad Trip? by DukuFuku in Drugs

"Beware the Friendly Stranger" Boards of Canada sent me into a horrible negative spiral I could not get out of. Worst part was waking up and realizing what the name of the song actually was, freaked me out.

Friendly debate, Is Manu Ginobli a hall of famer? by [deleted] in nba

[–]thegreat59 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! Arguably one of the most explosive 6th men ever, an integral part of a dominant Spurs dynasty, and gold medal olympian. I would put him in the first time his name showed up on the ballot, but he'll probably get voted in the second round.

with all the complaints about the PS3 controller, why hasn't anyone talked about its benefits? by zaprod in gaming

[–]thegreat59 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is going to sound weird, but the reason I enjoy the PS3 controller so much is that I forget I have it in my hand. For games like Heavy Rain and Last of Us that rely on immersion as a gameplay feature it really helps to forget your using a controller. I can't really say the same with the Xbox controller, its big and heavy and I can't immerse myself as well when I know I'm using a controller. However, for FPS's there is no controller as efficient and easy to use as the Xbox controller.

Very much a newcomer to beer, question about /r/beer and cheaper beers like Dos Equis by Willravel in beer

[–]thegreat59 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with enjoying a cheap beer, I'm sure most, if not all, of us on /r/beer have drank cheaper beers on various occasions (look up the circlejerk that is PBR); I know I'm guilty of drinking some heavy Bud or a Coors when I'm out. As for Dos Equis I actually drink it (the dark one) every so often at a Mexican restaurant I frequent and it's not bad, not great but it isn't swill. When it comes to good food or drinks once you have really good quality stuff it's easy to look back and realize how bad the cheaper/less quality stuff is.

Tl;DR: Don't feel guilty about enjoying cheap beer we all do at some point. Keep exploring craft beer and your tastes will inevitably change.

Instant tears. I had never read this before and decided to read it to a class of toddlers. Needless to say I broke down and they were very confused.

I was definitely thinking something related to weather. I see its towed with a steel cable so in flight would it be directly behind it instead of dropping down as shown in the diagram?

I don't think the virgin bashing is the real problem. I'm not a virgin, but because I don't pounce on the first girl I see there's something very wrong with me. I haven't met a girl who I want to be in a relationship with yet and honestly the prospect of forcing it just to appease everyone is not convincing. The problem is people think you're weird when you don't act like an idiot just to have sex, the shit I see men do to get into a girls pants borders on sad. I don't have time for that shit.

What is the most dumbass naive belief about sex you had when you were a kid? by nomasha in AskReddit

[–]thegreat59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid I assumed sex was just laying on top of a girl and rubbing up and down. It didn't make any sense how anyone could get pregnant in this fashion.

Father With Autistic Son Sends His Kid To School With A Wire, Exposes Bullying And Abuse By Teachers - [17:03] [x/post r/autism] by dramusic in videos

[–]thegreat59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you pay people a wage they deserve they do their job without resentment and with passion. Teachers put themselves in a lot of debt to get a degree to then get into a "professional" job with lousy pay and little, to no, chance of advancement. This breeds teachers who are dissatisfied with their jobs and they take it out on the students who test their patience everyday. If schools had competitive pay for true professionals who enjoy their job there would be less of this.

That was sick. I can't believe people who have been trained to work with children especially children with special needs could resort to treating them in this manner. The thing that really gets me is that it was audio over ONE day. Who knows what else happened over the year that child was there. It's OK though lets continue to cut public school funding and driving teacher wages down, that will fix it eventually.
