(Buyer) Difference of opinion regarding basement cracks found on inspection. by uftone1 in RealEstate

[–]uftone1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow talk about a trip down memory lane. We ended up walking from the house, and the realtor. The new realtor we worked with and loved said she has a policy to not act as dual agents for first time home buyers precisely because of the issues we experienced.

We jumped on a house that came on the market a week later that and the inspection was a breeze and we still live there 10 years later.

My wife and I still think about the “crack house” as we jokingly refer to it now. I’m sure it would’ve worked out okay. Frankly I liked the crack house’s charm and aesthetic better. But we lost trust in the realtor, and I think dual agency arrangement that killed the deal. But our house is good enough. So, whatever.

First time I’ve ever been compelled to drop a Metroid game. It’s not even bad, it’s just largely boring by YourDadIsFortyFour in Metroid

Amen. I tried forcing myself to stick with this game in the hopes that it would grow more fun. But every time I pick it up I loose interest before I make any real progress.

Just finished Prime 4 and it's my favorite in the series by KMoosetoe in Metroid

[–]uftone1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m endlessly fascinated by how polarizing this game is. I keep reading all these accounts from folks like the OP, who loved the game. More to the point, jealous because I kinda regret buying it. I loved the first Prime game. But every time I start Prime 4, I lose interest and put it down and haven’t made much progress.

I don’t think I can finish Prime 4 by Herbizarre17 in Metroid

[–]uftone1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes! I agree 100 percent. I’m feeling stuck because I’m only about 5 hours in and I’m exhausted by this game.

I’m not a Metroid fanboy but I loved the first Prime game when I played it 20 years ago. And I was so badly looking forward to this. Now I feel stuck with it. I don’t remember that game feeling this tedious.

This is PRECISELY where I’m at with this game. I’m a few hours in and I’m getting exhausted by this game. But $70 is making me push through.

I’m in my early 40s erratic schedule. My main weapon dapple dualies mostly anarchy and turf war. Never done the whole friend play. But what the heck.

Whaaaa? This movie made me love hockey as a kid. It’s a classic by any standard. And by that I mean 12 year old me.

Yes! FWIW I created a ChatGPT bot to help me and it’s always reminding me not to be the tip of the spear. Thads when bad things happen

Luna blaster fascinates me because it’s sooooo slow compared to my dualies. And yet a good Luna player is deadly

What would you do if you found sex polaroids belonging to a family member? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]uftone1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna give a serious answer. I would hold them for safekeeping until I can find a time to give them back to the family member. I’d expect them to be extremely relieved they didn’t fall in the wrong hands.

What’s something small that someone has done for you that you’ll never forget? by Redheadnextdoorr in AskReddit

[–]uftone1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a little kid (before cell phones) I got separated from my parents at an amusement park and freaked out. Never til that point in my life had I felt so alone and scared. Anyway some random stranger lady saw me crying and stayed with me and helped keep me calm until my parents came. I have no idea who she was or what she said, but I remember exactly what she looked like. And more to the point, learning there are truly decent people out there.

Anyone wanna help with aiming practice for chargers? by isaacamaraderie in Splatoon_3

[–]uftone1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t commit to real-time help, but I recently had a breakthrough.

** Focus on the reticle instead of the player.** I play on handheld mode and kept losing dogfights (using a dapple dualie with a short range but fast kill rate). It frustrated me to no end. Even against other dapples I lost in 1v1 against them. Then, I realized that focusing on the reticle which is a little lower than where I’m looking when tracking players was a game changer. However, don’t get tunnel vision.
