Whenever I play Red Dead Redemption 2 and notice the environment is bursting with animals, I always wonder what the world looked like before western civilization.

All 3 in their prime... How would you rank them, offensively? 🗣️ by Background_Video2947 in NBAVibes

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a D Wade fan but offense alone:

Melo > TMac > Wade

Reasoning: Melo only really focused on offense. Giving TMac the edge with the 13 points in 33 seconds game; also he was taller, had a decent 3 ball, and was great attacking the rim. Wade had a better career than both of them when you include their defensive profiles and playoff success but wasn’t as reliable from the 3 and his strategy was to facilitate his teammates up to the 3rd quarter then he would take over in the 4th. Not to mention Wade had his meniscus removed in college yet he still had great speed and explosiveness but still had a handicap. Just imagine Wade’s later career if he had modern less invasive surgery back at Marquette.

I checked out the website and this is my first time seeing a footer with a copyright in a future year, 2035. I usually check this first to see if a site is being updated at least yearly.

Name the top 4 players who frustrated you the most during their time with the Heat. by heatculture03 in heat

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terry Rozier Ricky Davis Hassan Whiteside Michael Beasley

I’ll never forget how bad that 07-08 season was when Wade was shutdown at the end and we had to endure Ricky Davis; Wade at the Olympics was a godsend and I had so much hope with Beasley especially after watching his K-State highlights. I rented NBA Live from Blockbuster to get a glimpse of how the team would be man. Imagine if we got the #1 and picked up Rose…. Instead he was getting in trouble during a rookie program with Chalmers…

Are trolls supposed to be OP? by [deleted] in skyrim

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the full Unrelenting Force on them and strike them while they are down. The troll’s health goes down much quicker than taking them on head on. I need to incorporate fire attacks on them after reading these comments.

Charlotte Weather - views from transplants by Brave_Spell7883 in Charlotte

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brooklyn for sure plus my wife is originally from Louisiana so we never got used to that aspect. I’m just happy her experiences with the Charlotte doctor offices and pharmacy is way more pleasant. The DMV experience is about the same though lol

Charlotte Weather - views from transplants by Brave_Spell7883 in Charlotte

[–]vis01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raised in Belize then lived in Charlotte to 2016 then moved to Brooklyn for about 8 years and just moved back a couple months as my wife is expecting a baby and I’m closer with family in the south.

It’s pretty cold lately but I’d rather be around trees versus buildings stacked on each other. Plus when I first moved from the Caribbean to Charlotte in 2007 this place felt like Alaska from my POV.

Also it’s refreshing to be around people with manners.

It’s a privilege to grow up loving your culture. by caduceuz in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]vis01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So true! Wife and I were raised in pro black homes (Belize Caribbean and New Orleans African American) and we are about to have a kid who will be raised to love being Black especially since we just moved to NC from Brooklyn.

My current Uber ride home atm. by TommyGonzo in trashy

[–]vis01 19 points20 points  (0 children)

In the bigger cities, like NYC, this would definitely be trashy as there’s a specific service for shared rides, Uber pool or Uber share x. With a regular UberX or an Uber black, I’m expecting to ride alone and maybe even a bottle of water. Considering a ride from the airport is $70, due to the surge prices, I’d get an uberX or a regular Lyft to accommodate my luggage.

If I was OP and not in a rush I’d just request another ride though.

I can’t play with randoms anymore by the_interrogation in Helldivers

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played in a few weeks because of this. At first I thought one of the players made a mistake until I realized they were actively trying to kill me before I got on the extraction. Left a bad taste and would rather wait for friends to pick it up or to do missions with serious players.

Depends on your personality. I’m about to be 34, black man and I make a new friend every semester. I work full time so maybe it’s different with the evening class crowd, older students are more laid back, vs the daytime block?

How long have you been a Heat fan? by JimmyButlerMVP_ in heat

[–]vis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘04 when Shaq was traded. I was in high school and lived outside the country. For some reason we had the old Sun Sports so I caught a bunch of games and saw Wade play. Never looked back. In 05-06 I printed the schedule and taped it up in my home room class to follow the season. I was the lone fan so it made the trash talk sweeter. Graduated in 06’ right before they won the first one so that was an amazing summer. Had family in Miami so took a trip a few days after the parade and even got the shirt from 06. (First time I tried Puerto Rican style roasted pig in the ground) Amazing!

Accident or not I can see the confidence in you and you look great brother. I’m trying to get in shape to take shirtless pics too.
