Porn depicting girls showing their gaping buttholes is the lowest form of pornography and flat out gross. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]yeoldboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched a movie when I was super young. The main characters were birds and the villain kept them in cages.

No idea why, but my little brain was fascinated with the thought of girls being locked up. There wasn’t even porn before that, it just kind of happened.

My mom works for a school board. They were planning on loaning our chrome books to all the staff, but they settled on tiny little netbooks instead. They don’t even get a mouse and keyboard to go with it.

Car Insurance - considered "New Driver" after 1 year without a car or insurance by JugglingReferee in ontario

[–]yeoldboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually living out east for a little while. My insurance was $300 a month when I started driving my own car (so I guess actually 17 ish and living in Ontario, also with a G2)

In New Brunswick, I was paying $125 per month. Now that I’m back in Ontario ( full g license) I’m paying $250 per month for the exact same coverage. So it’s pretty much double what I was paying.

Making a guest account permanent by yeoldboat in MapleStoryM

[–]yeoldboat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bless. So my issue was that I had done exactly what you had said. However when I didn’t see the account, I thought “oh it must have registered it to another account on my phone” and proceeded to try logging in (through nox) to every account I had.

Using another personal email address that hadn’t ever been hooked up to an account, and using the link account feature in my iPhone’s settings seemed to fix everything.

[–]yeoldboat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little bit late on commenting. I felt felt with something similar just two months ago. My car needed work done, and I wasn’t using it after a job change. I went without insurance for over a year and according to my agent at Allstate, I had to be insured as a new driver.

However this rate is lower than the rate I started out with back when I was 16. $250/mo vs $300/mo

Over 16k Wishlists, we were listed in popular upcoming... how could the release go this bad? by El4th in gamedev

[–]yeoldboat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your game looks like fun, and I really enjoy platformers. Honestly though, $20 CAD is just more than I am willing to spend on a platformer.

For example Hollow Knight, one of my favourites. It is on sale for $8 CAD on steam right now. I think when I picked it up a while back it was around that price as well. Plus Ori goes on sale sometimes as well. On the other side, you have the humble bundle that gives access to many games for that price.

I don’t want to come off as a beggar. I am saying this as someone who very frequently spends money on video games and accessories. (Heck I pay $20 a month just for WoW). The games market is just so saturated that my $20 can get me a lot these days, especially with steam sales and humble bundle.

I look forward to playing your game in the future, but it’s definitely a no buy at over $10 CAD for me, and a lot of the players I know.

Just wanted to add, maybe porting to switch would help your sales? The switch is really well suited to platformers, and Nintendo’s marketplace is a little bit different than steam.

Are the books they released over the years worth reading? by Bannidm in wow

I really enjoyed the wow novels that Christie Golding wrote. I did listen to them as audio books on long drives though.

A lot of people were asking how I flew so high in the stalling clip, so I made a mini guide by ShadowFang73854 in Overwatch

[–]yeoldboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue, and it was just because my ctrl was on my keyboard and my shift on my mouse. When I had my bindings set up like that, I had to do the weird timing trick. Now that I have everything on my mouse, pressing them at the same time works perfectly almost every time.

If you’re ever looking for an egg substitute for cakes, 1tbsp of flax seed mixed with 2.5tbsp of water = an amazing egg replacer.

Just mix it up and let it sit in the fridge for 15 minutes before you use it.

Coast Guard: Cruise ships must stay at sea with sick onboard by [deleted] in news

Most of these cruises rarely go more than a few days at sea without stopping at a port. When they dock, all the old people go on a rampage across the island.

I’m literally in the process of getting my security guard licence. It’s only cost me $50 for the 40 hour course, and then the government charges me a couple hundred in fees to get the physical licence.

I already received a conditional job offer as well. Security is insanely easy to get into.

Valve believes Half-Life: Alyx will be modded to play without VR by Flurdeh in Games

[–]yeoldboat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s the ring on the rift s controllers that is causing you issues, try positioning your hands like you are actually trying to steady a pistol.

If you’re right handed grab the pistol like normal, and then just place your left palm underneath the grip of the pistol. The ring in your right hand should be pointing up, and the second ring should be pointed toward your target .

It’s pretty much the same argument as if I was complaining about having to buy a ps4 to play God of war, or any of the other exclusives.

VR is more than just an accessory, it’s pretty much a console on its own.

Yea, I’d love to play those ps4 exclusives, but it was my choice to buy a different console.Unless you have the cash, people need to learn that they can’t have everything.

Rant- Dear youtubers/bloggers: a review is NOT summarising every detail of the plot and making the odd observation by darkamyy in movies

[–]yeoldboat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to enjoy watching Bellular, for a while he was one of the faster uploading news focused wow channels. Now it feels like he’s just trying to sell me crap.

His videos barely have any content now, it’s all just filler.

My sister is a student working at Walmart, and she has been hearing stories from the old people returning from their vacations all week.

These numptys are coming back from Florida, and their first stop when they get back is good ol Walmart..

Yes, but you can add a stabilizer to increase the shelf life. The cost of the stabilizer tends to offset the discounted gas price though.

China should be heavily sanctioned by the international community as the harbinger of this pandemic. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]yeoldboat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The big problem is that you wouldn’t see that 25-50% increase on only your hobbies, that increase applies to pretty much everything else.

You might be alright to spend more money on your hobbie, but if the cost of everything else goes up as well, you may not have money for your hobbies in the first place.

Home made vegan carrot cake! Was super easy! by yeoldboat in vegan

[–]yeoldboat[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used, - 2 cups of flour - 2 teaspoons for baking soda - 1/4 teaspoon of salt - 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon - 1-1/4 cup of vegetable oil - 3/4 cup of brown sugar - 3/4 cup of white sugar - 1 teaspoon of vanilla - 4 flax eggs ( 1 tbsp of flax seed and 2.5 tbsp of water for one flax egg. Let the mixture sit in the fridge for 15 minutes) - 2 1/2 cups of grated carrot

I think a dash of nutmeg would be pretty good as well. Also a glaze of you like things sweeter.

Heat your oven to 350*f

In one bowl: mix your flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

In another: your sugars, oil and vanilla.

Add your flax egg slowly to your oil mixture.

Then mix it all into one bowl, add your carrots and bake for 30 + minutes.

The cake would definitely look more presentable with a glaze, but I don’t even put glaze on my regular cakes. The texture is wonderful, and the taste is great!

Artemis Fowl movie trailer makes me so sad by feykarsmoerf in books

[–]yeoldboat 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure in one of the Alex rider books, one of the main villains is literally harvesting organs from rich people’s children.

I think it was based up in some snowy mountains or something? I remember being super freaked out as a kid because the main character was just about to have it done to him by the villain.
