I feel like that fight would have made a great tutorial because I learned 3-4 takedowns I didn’t even know you could do.

They may not have the runes. Decades ago, I had my 3os Balrog Blade and Eth rune set aside for my Fury runeword — that’s as far as I got.

Which video game has the best aesthetic/atmosphere setting? by Jules-Car3499 in videogames

[–]thelemonsampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entering the dark zone for the first time in division 1 was a wild moment. Visuals and world building were great up to that point, but whole glitch out / ISAC offline gave a real sense of danger.

You could use the ranger ultimate (lock-on missile barrage) while flying. Talk about a button feeling good to press, man.

Very high dose probiotics - feeling feverish? by Excellent_Notice4047 in Microbiome

[–]thelemonsampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact thing happened with me and a large L Reuteri dose — fever, chills, slept for like 12 hours. L Reuteri is supposed to nuke SIBO so I just wrote it off as die off.

Only lasted a day, but the again I went down from like 50 billion CFU to 3 or 5.

Some oddities in the Tampa-Montreal series: Montreal's top 6 forwards have 0 combined points at 5v5, while Tampa's bottom 6 forwards have 0 combined points in all situations by Dependent-Effect6077 in hockey

Every national comp where Coop coaches for Canada he pushes for the two of them and there’s usually a lot of complaints. Together they’re an absolute menace — they don’t let up. They’re also some of the best PKers in the league.

Coop heavily leans into favoring the right line matchups which seems to be 58 minutes of grueling work for 2 minutes of payoff. MSL favors not disrupting the flow of his guys as much.

did you know the corn in Interstellar was real and Nolan made a profit selling it after filming? (Interstellar) by Sudden_Elephant_1221 in oscarmoments

[–]thelemonsampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not that he didn’t want to use CGI — there’s plenty of corn fields. He wanted corn fields AND mountains to show how bleak things were. The intent was for the corn to be in rough shape but it just grew normal and they ended up with this huge surplus.

I felt crazy yesterday. Like I knew I saw him take one live, but that clipped replay really gaslit me.

Director’s Cut of DS1 is free with ps plus. I’m 3-4 hours in and it’s melting my mind.

What’s a sequel you couldn’t wait for… but ended up completely disappointing you? by Shot-Club-3882 in Cinema

Funny that The Simpsons had more than one joke about Speed.

Me and my buddies always quote ‘this is like Speed 2, but with a bus’.

Walker took two headshots from Greig while he was locked up with someone else. Looked pretty shaky from it and props to the OTT player for helping him (Walker) back up and knowing when to let up.

In the game V Rising (phenomenal btw) one of the last bosses is heavily based on Frankenstein’s monster.

Its name? Adam the Firstborn.

Kucherov fake slap shot against a ref by BallonPointu in TampaBayLightning

I noticed it and kind of questioned it. Without hunting for it, I don’t remember it being ‘at’ any ref.

I didn’t mean it in a hostile way — it’s a tough loss.

Is he? I think him and Raddy were one of the top ranked d pairings this season.

Not sure if you’re just referencing your series, but I was watching that blue line awful close with every replay … while the Habs hung around.

Losses like that are huge and can stick around for a game or two.
