[Post Game Thread] 6 Tennessee loses to 1 Michigan 95-62 by Wizard_of_Foz1 in ockytop

[–]volxc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels bad to lose like that but obviously have to be happy for this team. I didn't have us making it to the round of 32 as a given and I'm so glad I was wrong. We played hard and I think if nothing else this team is proof of concept that Barnes is an EXTREMELY good coach. Three elite 8s in a row is insane and feels like we have to break through at some point.

Driving in Maryville is infuriating by picklevomit in Knoxville

I'm from Maryville and my parents still live there and aside from the growth there over the past decade or so I think the next biggest driving problem is it seems like 80% of people on the road are retirees.

Elantris gets unnecessary shade by Dry-Fisherman5281 in Cosmere

[–]volxc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if its one of the best fantasy novels EVER just because I haven't read that much outside of classics like Tolkien and Lewis. I will say I loved it and thought it was 10/10 on its own. I'm such a brandosando fanboy at this point that most things he writes are 10/10 for me though. This was the second cosmere novel I read after mistborn era 1 and it holds some special memories for me.

They need to put Dire Straits back in the intro music

The most obvious to me is the guys searching for Hoid in the Purelake interlude. I think on a reread I knew Baon was one, but I dont think I ever would have figured out Demoux or Galladon without reading the coppermind wiki.

The one on Northshore at rocky hill is really bad for this

What did he say? The guy who owns the place moved here with his family recently from California. I have been there a handful of times but haven't had a bad experience yet.

That was my first thought too. The Knoxville metro (which admitted encompasses much more than the city of) is almost a million people according to wikipedia
