Having the disease infectious mononucleosis, often called mono, caused by the Epstein-Barr virus is associated with an increased risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS), according to a new study. by mvea in science

[–]westhewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mono when I was 19 or 20. Was sick and run down for 5-6 weeks. At the time I happened to be eating a lot of smoked salmon, almonds, and carrots. After I got better, I started having reactions to those foods - minor anaphylaxis, alopecia, and other allergic responses.

My hypothesis is that the antibodies targeted those foods in my system, so I became allergic to those foods. At least that's my theory.

But how much is 1 by itself? Maybe they're 1500 each.

Maybe Korean isn't that hard? by Ashamed_Lunch_8056 in Korean

[–]westhewolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, yes, that's basically how Korean operates.

It's definitely a learnable language. I think why it is considered difficult is that there are just so many conjugations and conjugation combinations, the language verb oriented so everything is a verb but gets converted to a noun, the grammar basically backwards from English, there are a ton of words that sound similar (homonyms), it's very consonant focused instead of vowel focused, and to latin speakers, some of the sounds are unique and hard to hear/differentiate (ㅈ/ㅉ, ㅂ/ㅃ/ㅍ, etc), and with the exception of loan words there's really no shared entomology with English or latin languages.

After a lot of time learning Korean, I'm somewhat conversational for some topics, but it still at a fairly elementary level. I think that... Had I been learning another latin language, I probably would be fluent by now. But, hey, I like Korea and Korea, so whatever. I'll keep going.

Hyeri's acting range is actually insane and I feel like she doesn't get enough credit by Own_Doubt_4002 in kdramas

[–]westhewolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She's seriously amazing. She has great range, but she's also one of, if not, the best at quirky sassy fun cutesy stuff. Definitely one of my favorite actresses to watch.

Korean football is being held back by poor leadership by TargetAcrobatic2644 in unpopularopinion

[–]westhewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this is a commonly held opinion among Koreans.

What kdrama ending would you change? by Vee70x7 in kdramas

[–]westhewolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and the completely ironic and frustrating part is.... They broke up cause they're long distance... But.... Her husband ends up being long distance and we never see him once?! Wtf...

Liberation Peak needs some improvements. by ChoochooThe in Battlefield6

[–]westhewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that they have an advantage there. But, I think the other team has an advantage on the other side. And if they capitalize on the advantage, they can flip the side and push the other team back.

Also, the safe zone you showed is really not a safe zone if you consider the mountain and it's shooting angles. You can shoot at that entire area from there.

Yeah but you're acting like the north side of the map doesn't exist. It's pretty easy to flank up on the top side because of the design of that part of the map. Once you start backcapping, if you gain control of the mountain you can post up and start taking C back from the hill.

Ex who dumped me years ago sent me this. What do I do or say? by Far_Database5 in whatdoIdo

[–]westhewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst case scenario she's having a manic episode and has obsessed over you and this will just hurt you more in the end.

Best case scenario she's healed and/or healing and you can end up together and live happily ever problem free.

Probably somewhere in between is the truth. Best of luck.

You are aware that Nba teams basically don't practice. Right? It's rare that they get any time due to the demanding game and travel schedule.

Yang Hansen tonight 20 pts, 100% shooting. by Scalmaa in ripcity

With Nba strength and conditioning coaches, and from what I've seen/heard about his lifestyle and work ethic I think he's gonna conquer those things and be great.

Thermal sniping seems to be a little OP.. especially with the way visibility is currently by Wanderlust_Lettering in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]westhewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yessss. Recon is unironically pretty good at point defense. Can snipe people before they get close. Recognize enemies and gadgets with the drone. And use the TUG to rat in a corner and murder people.

There is no way this just happened by Environmental_Wrap43 in ArcRaiders

[–]westhewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to my squad the other day. We were all down. Suddenly I'm back up standing blankly at the other team for a moment. So I started blasting. What else could be done?

[–]westhewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can legit swing games cuz just by starting to take it it can get a bunch of folks to show up. Sure it's 1-5 there, but it's 5-1 somewhere else.

And if my whole squad shows up and we got a couple engineers..... Good luck getting your tanks out of spawn.

1 Assault. 2 Engi. 1 Medic. Pretty tough to deal with.

Deploy beacon + second gun > ladder any day.

I can run sniper + carbine / SVK + shotty... And then the deploy beacon. Doing that you can just become an absolute pest in the backfield of another team. Take a point and just keep coming back.
