I simply believe a diamond V player should not receive the same rewards as a diamond I player (call me greedy if you want). I'm sure everyone knows that the difference between the two mentioned ranks is not only the skill level, but the amount of work put in to achieving that high or higher of a rank. In other words I think it takes more work/effort to get to diamond 1, than diamond 5 or 4, so there should be some sort of compensation or extra reward for that extra amount of work you've done. It doesn't even have to be anything big, just an indicator that you finished at Diamond Division "x" or Bronze Division 4 in Teemo's Crusaders. The reward itself could be on the border trim on the loading screen or even on the reward/tier specific summoner icon you get for end of the season rewards. I think it's funny that there's literally no reward for getting a higher division in a tier other than self-accomplishment. How should someone that's diamond 5 be awarded the same EXACT rewards as someone that's diamond 1? If you think about, you can see that it's a bit unfair in a way. This could also give people that are content on eternally staying at division 5 or that have been boosted up there an incentive to move up; because realistically there's no point to move up unless you want to cross to the next tier because you will still get the SAME rewards no matter what division you end up in. I realize that this applies to diamond players more than bronze/silv/gold/plat players. Which, in the case of a diamond player, is pretty difficult considering the whole challenger ordeal is a huge mess, because moving up through d1 is extremely difficult(for normal solo q players). Downvote my opinion if you want, but I just think there should be some reward for that extra work put in to attaining a higher division. Edit: tl;dr there should be some reward for that extra work put in to attaining a higher division

Today has been 4 months since I became a Devilbro and even longer since I first lurked on the sub before our lovely mod Mr Mr a.k.a. /u/MrSumOne took over. I have had life problems this last year and ended a multi-year history of alcohol abuse and been sober the last 8 months. But through the hardest of times I had people to share my favorite addiction with that have became friends through our trials, tribulations and prayer that RNGesus would grant us our wishes and fork over those 1% drops to make that last piece of armor. So **tl;dr** thanks to all of you guys (and couple ladies) I have played with over the last 4 months. You've really kept my mind occupied during the worst of times for me and I look forward to many many mmmaaaannnnnyyyyy more hunts to come. Especially with MH4U right around the corner.

I've been lifting and exercising for over a year now. Lost a lot of weight, but I never got great results as far as muscle growth and tone. I'm chalking it up partially to that I don't have the right equipment at home and could never up my weights throughout the p90x and x3 programs. Shoulders were always done with 10lbs, arms were with 20lbs usually. So, I went to the gym today to try to up my weights and use the machines for back work outs. I'm still bad a pull ups so I use the weighted machines for that. Problem is, I found that I burned out pretty quick. Maybe I'm just having an off day but this sucked and was a shot to my ego. I guess the tl;dr question is, how do I up my weights without burning out half way through the workout?

Someone posted a few days back asking if anyone had experienced wet glue koosh darts. I don't know what seller they were talking about (I tried to find the thread and couldn't) but I received 200 darts a few weeks back from YuToys and today I just had a delivery of 200 darts from BeautifulWoman2012. I figured I'd compare the two and share my experience. My YuToys darts are all blue. They arrived quick and most of them are alright. They don't have heavy glue so they fly pretty straight. Some of the dart tips have come off and feel a bit wet and sticky. It is roughly one in 20. It's disappointing because if they keep falling apart at this rate I will burn through these rather quickly. The BeautifulWoman darts that arrived were forest green and black. Most of these darts are almost the opposite of YuToys. They've used too much glue. At times it is caked on the tips of the dart. None of them are wet. I don't them coming apart anytime soon but, because of this, they can fly wonky often. I can hit the target I'm aiming at way more often with the BW Green koosh than I can with the YuToys blue, I don't know maybe they fly farther... but, WOW when a BW Green koosh dart flies off target, I may as well be holding the blaster sideways. This doesn't bother me so much because we don't line up our sights so often in my house. We're usually just slinging a massive amount of foam and laughing. Now when I asked her to fill my order I asked for green and black. She sent me ALL forest green and one pack of black. I don't know why that was but I'm thankful for it because, HOLY CRAP do the black darts suck. I couldn't hit my target with any of them! They all fly off at weird angles or come up short. So the TL;DR version of this post is: YuToys darts right now: 1-20 have weird glue issues. BW2012 forest green: TONS of glue, don't always fly straight. BW2012 black: only received a few, they all sucked bad.

I figured I'd compare the two and share my experience. My YuToys darts are all blue. They arrived quick and most of them are alright. They don't have heavy glue so they fly pretty straight. Some of the dart tips have come off and feel a bit wet and sticky. It is roughly one in 20. It's disappointing because if they keep falling apart at this rate I will burn through these rather quickly. The BeautifulWoman darts that arrived were forest green and black. Most of these darts are almost the opposite of YuToys. They've used too much glue. At times it is caked on the tips of the dart. None of them are wet. I don't them coming apart anytime soon but, because of this, they can fly wonky often. I can hit the target I'm aiming at way more often with the BW Green koosh than I can with the YuToys blue, I don't know maybe they fly farther... but, WOW when a BW Green koosh dart flies off target, I may as well be holding the blaster sideways. This doesn't bother me so much because we don't line up our sights so often in my house. We're usually just slinging a massive amount of foam and laughing. Now when I asked her to fill my order I asked for green and black. She sent me ALL forest green and one pack of black. I don't know why that was but I'm thankful for it because, HOLY CRAP do the black darts suck. I couldn't hit my target with any of them! They all fly off at weird angles or come up short. So the TL;DR version of this post is: YuToys darts right now: 1-20 have weird glue issues. BW2012 forest green: TONS of glue, don't always fly straight. BW2012 black: only received a few, they all sucked bad.

T'will be Waitangi Day tomorrow, not a cause for celebration for perhaps every Kiwi, but, still our national day nonetheless! Anyone want to get together tomorrow evening for some Tuatara APA? A couple of Yeastie Boys? Non-Kiwis also very welcome! For those not in the know, the TL;DR is that some important document was signed 175 years ago. Some liked it, some didn't.

An odd question none the less, I would appreciate people keep this unvoted. I did a lot of acid by myself, I also drank a lot before hand. I was at a party with people and decided fuck it, I'll get wasted. So i did. Stumbled home and had a couple hits of acid so I was like "Hell fucking yea, Ill trip off my goddamn ass", which I did. Soon into it I started jacking off, loved it. Felt like the air was jelly and my dick was a knife spreading it across a sandwich. To make something short, creampies turn me on. Also big asses too. Whilst my jacking off adventure on LSD I got the idea..... "What does a creampie feel like???:O??". I kept picturing it and couldn't wrap my mind around the feeling. Closest thing I had to go off of was having sex, with a girl, and I wore a condom. The feeling I thought was the same feeling of cum smothering my dick. I also work out and play football so I have a nice ass. I thought, damn I have a big ass, I like creampies, what does this combo feel like as a chick? So, combine acid and booze with a low impulse control and soon enough I posted an ad to craiglist. I have no idea what I did afterward so looking at my post I could see the acid and whisky shouting. It was a side picture of my big ass and a picture of me laying down squirming around with my cheeks spread apart. Note: I did not remember the post pictures, or colorful wording that described it, but I do remember what I did. Moments after posting I got several replies. One was a guy with a giant black dick, so as you could anticipate I started talking to him. bout 10 minutes later he pulls outside my house. I get in his car, he pulls him pants down and shoves my face into his smelly cock. It was like sucking on a warm popsicle that was warm, and hard, and didn't get smaller the more I sucked on it, no no no. This got bigger. I remember him fingering my ass like I was his sex doll. And he forced me into a doggystyle position and shoved it in my ass. Felt painful, like a prostate exam only no glove, a giant meat popsicle going in and out, and it kept getting deeper and deeper. Soon it felt good. He even had me begging for his cum, which doesn't surprise me. I ran naked through a playground while I was tripping when I was like 16 because someone bet me 100$ I wouldn't do it. I did, and got more acid with that money but thats not important. He finally came in my ass. It felt really good, I really liked it. He just sat there while moaning and filling me up, he pulled it out and I could feel his hot cum rushing out of me. Normally, when I fucked someone that was the point where I got the fuck out. But this guy, no. He went again. Came in me again. Even better. Thats not even the end. We were trapped in this car fucking so after the second time I just laid down and played with his cum in my ass. I realized after 10 minutes I agreed to go somewhere else for more. He pulled me out and fucked me on his car in a parking lot. Secluded of course. This time it was a lot more rough. More ass slapping and groaning, and harder. He came in me two more times. It was basically NSFWthis except going in me, or was in me already. The weird thing was, the cum felt so good. I sucked his dick one last time and he dropped me off, slapped my ass and told me to call him again, or I was now his bottom bitch. Something along those lines. Never did. Anyway, sorry for the graphic content but that was the story. Also, I'm pretty sure if you touch someones skin or lick it while their tripping you can trip, mildly, as well. So considering I did 4 hits and he was inside me like a tapeworm, he was probably tripping himself. The weird thing about it was, it turned me on. I slept with a lot of women and I love it, I love making out with them, playing with their tits, and smashing their ass. Maybe the guy did too but thats beside the question. I haven't had sex with a girl for like 4 months at this point so that 1 time was the first sex I've had in awhile. The next few days I started jacking off to it, it was awesome. Especially the day it happened. Seriously when i got out of his car and jacked off, I looked like this. So TL;DR time: Men don't turn me on, Women do. I can't kiss a guy cause it makes me want to throw up. I haven't has sex with anyone after that up to now. When I think about it it grosses me out that I did that, but turns me on at the same time. When we fucked I never looked him in the eys cause I'd probably throw up. Women I can. I still like women, I still want to have sex but everytime I jack off I think about that, then when I cum I come to my senses. Does that make me gay? The getting cummed inside and liking that part, the having sex with a guy on craigslist while tripping and shitting out his cum for a week. Does that make me gay?

So considering I did 4 hits and he was inside me like a tapeworm, he was probably tripping himself. The weird thing about it was, it turned me on. I slept with a lot of women and I love it, I love making out with them, playing with their tits, and smashing their ass. Maybe the guy did too but thats beside the question. I haven't had sex with a girl for like 4 months at this point so that 1 time was the first sex I've had in awhile. The next few days I started jacking off to it, it was awesome. Especially the day it happened. Seriously when i got out of his car and jacked off, I looked like this. So
time: Men don't turn me on, Women do. I can't kiss a guy cause it makes me want to throw up. I haven't has sex with anyone after that up to now. When I think about it it grosses me out that I did that, but turns me on at the same time. When we fucked I never looked him in the eys cause I'd probably throw up. Women I can. I still like women, I still want to have sex but everytime I jack off I think about that, then when I cum I come to my senses. Does that make me gay? The getting cummed inside and liking that part, the having sex with a guy on craigslist while tripping and shitting out his cum for a week. Does that make me gay?

I'm many months late and reviewing the wrong game*, but here we go. After years of "Hoenn confirmed" memes, Game Freak released the Gen 3 remakes at the end of 2014. Sound the trumpets! Note: I haven't played the original games, but I've done some research. The game follows the traditional formula closely: catch, train and battle with wild, innocent Pokemon, defeat Gym Leaders, topple a criminal organization and become Pokemon Champion, all at the age of ten**! Gen 3 introduced Pokemon Contests and Secret Bases. Both return here, flashier than ever, but don't intrude on the core gameplay. The new Bases are worthwhile however; not only is it fun to customise them (I encountered one designed to play the Mario theme as you walked in), but can also be turned into pseudo Gyms. Many people have taken to filling theirs with defenseless Blissey, for all your EXP boosting needs. The story and flow of the game have been improved too. The team of your game now seeks to unleash their Pokemon's Primal Reversion instead of making up for stealing the wrong plot trinket off screen. The main villains and side characters are fleshed out (Team Aqua moreso than Magma) and the backtracking in the original titles has also been dealt with: NPCs now offer you the chance to fast travel to places you've already been to when the plot demands (e.g. May gives you this option when returning to Petalburg to tackle its Gym). Changes introduced in newer games also return. The PSS, Pokemon Amie and Super Training return from X and Y, just as you remember them (literally. It's weird punchibg a Team Flare bag when they don't exist yet). Those fond of the postgame side story in Lumiose City will be pleased to know Sea Mauville (based on an unexplorable wreck in the original games), offers a similar battle light, yet story heavy, sequence. The biggest additions to the game, and unique to ORAS, are Soaring and the Delta Episode. Soaring is effectively a manual "Fly" and is unlocked once you obtain the Eon Flute late in the game. Not only can you Soar (or Fly) to any town *or route* (another first for ORAS), you can also access Mirage Spots. These Mirage Spots appear when certain conditions are met (e.g. "it's a Monday", "you have X in your party") and contain Legendary Pokemon from previous generations. And there are *a lot*. While Game Freak's claim that XY and ORAS will let you obtain every Legendary between them is unfounded, you can come pretty close***. Delta Episode is an epilogue triggered as soon as the main game ends, featuring a new character and one of flashiest sequences in a Pokemon vame to date. It also expands on Hoenn's lore. Some may not like the extent to which Game Freak altered said lore (the addition of Mega Evolution for instance, which slightly retcons XY's lore), but I felt the alterations served to tie the individual elements of the Pokemon universe closer together. Another change, geared more towards competitive players, is the new DexNav. Every so often, it will alert you to a Pokemon in the wild. You can sneak (also new and replacing XY's rollerskating) up to and catch it. If you keep catching Pokemon of the same species this way, you will begin to find versions with special Egg Moves, only obtainable via breeding. Those are the main features that make ORAS unique compared to its predecessors. I was apprehensive at first; given XY was only a year old, would these games have much more to add? The limited specific development time shows: as stated before, XY's unique features were copy/ pasted here exactly and instead of Emerald's Battle Frontier, ORAS instead opts for Kalos' Battle Maison - also unique save for the (greatly appreciated) ability to suspend matches whenever you want to take a break and go elsewhere in Hoenn. But there are little touches and refinements that make the game special (the music!) We didn't *need* Sea Mauville, nor did we need the Delta Episode for instance. And ORAS accomplishes its goal of updating what is possibly the most polarising Pokemon generation and letting it shine. It's a fun game! It has a more substantial postgame than XY! I enjoyed it, and would recommend it to those feeling nostalgic or wanting to experience Hoenn for the first time. If you played XY to death, or are feeling burned out by the franchise however, ORAS has some shiny new bells and whistles but doesn't reinvent the wheel.

I'm many months late and reviewing the wrong game*, but here we go. After years of "Hoenn confirmed" memes, Game Freak released the Gen 3 remakes at the end of 2014. Sound the trumpets! Note: I haven't played the original games, but I've done some research. The game follows the traditional formula closely: catch, train and battle with wild, innocent Pokemon, defeat Gym Leaders, topple a criminal organization and become Pokemon Champion, all at the age of ten**! Gen 3 introduced Pokemon Contests and Secret Bases. Both return here, flashier than ever, but don't intrude on the core gameplay. The new Bases are worthwhile however; not only is it fun to customise them (I encountered one designed to play the Mario theme as you walked in), but can also be turned into pseudo Gyms. Many people have taken to filling theirs with defenseless Blissey, for all your EXP boosting needs. The story and flow of the game have been improved too. The team of your game now seeks to unleash their Pokemon's Primal Reversion instead of making up for stealing the wrong plot trinket off screen. The main villains and side characters are fleshed out (Team Aqua moreso than Magma) and the backtracking in the original titles has also been dealt with: NPCs now offer you the chance to fast travel to places you've already been to when the plot demands (e.g. May gives you this option when returning to Petalburg to tackle its Gym). Changes introduced in newer games also return. The PSS, Pokemon Amie and Super Training return from X and Y, just as you remember them (literally. It's weird punchibg a Team Flare bag when they don't exist yet). Those fond of the postgame side story in Lumiose City will be pleased to know Sea Mauville (based on an unexplorable wreck in the original games), offers a similar battle light, yet story heavy, sequence. The biggest additions to the game, and unique to ORAS, are Soaring and the Delta Episode. Soaring is effectively a manual "Fly" and is unlocked once you obtain the Eon Flute late in the game. Not only can you Soar (or Fly) to any town or route (another first for ORAS), you can also access Mirage Spots. These Mirage Spots appear when certain conditions are met (e.g. "it's a Monday", "you have X in your party") and contain Legendary Pokemon from previous generations. And there are a lot . While Game Freak's claim that XY and ORAS will let you obtain every Legendary between them is unfounded, you can come pretty close***. Delta Episode is an epilogue triggered as soon as the main game ends, featuring a new character and one of flashiest sequences in a Pokemon vame to date. It also expands on Hoenn's lore. Some may not like the extent to which Game Freak altered said lore (the addition of Mega Evolution for instance, which slightly retcons XY's lore), but I felt the alterations served to tie the individual elements of the Pokemon universe closer together. Another change, geared more towards competitive players, is the new DexNav. Every so often, it will alert you to a Pokemon in the wild. You can sneak (also new and replacing XY's rollerskating) up to and catch it. If you keep catching Pokemon of the same species this way, you will begin to find versions with special Egg Moves, only obtainable via breeding. Those are the main features that make ORAS unique compared to its predecessors. I was apprehensive at first; given XY was only a year old, would these games have much more to add? The limited specific development time shows: as stated before, XY's unique features were copy/ pasted here exactly and instead of Emerald's Battle Frontier, ORAS instead opts for Kalos' Battle Maison - also unique save for the (greatly appreciated) ability to suspend matches whenever you want to take a break and go elsewhere in Hoenn. But there are little touches and refinements that make the game special (the music!) We didn't need Sea Mauville, nor did we need the Delta Episode for instance. And ORAS accomplishes its goal of updating what is possibly the most polarising Pokemon generation and letting it shine. It's a fun game! It has a more substantial postgame than XY! I enjoyed it, and would recommend it to those feeling nostalgic or wanting to experience Hoenn for the first time. If you played XY to death, or are feeling burned out by the franchise however, ORAS has some shiny new bells and whistles but doesn't reinvent the wheel. If that bothers you, maybe you should sit this one out. Bonus: [Too much water?]( Not really.

Not necessarily wrong is destiny the game, but I really think that every faction (meaning guardians, fallen, etc) are very misunderstood. Let's start with the guardians. They are descended from, recruited by, and built by hordes of humans who through little invention of their own stumbled across the Traveler, who granted them longer lifespans and they figured out how to conquer and traverse other planets in the process. Through the they invaded other worlds, building and building until their golden age was at a peak. Then it was destroyed like an anthill by hive and the vex, who if they did it so easily were clearly stronger and the more worthy opponent. The faction i previously speak of are not necessarily the guardians but the ones they currently watch over, from their all mighty tower. Looking over the rest as they feel the need to protect the feeble species since they obviously can't do it themselves. The guardians are overlords whom presence is feared and respected as much as a slaver would be. Moving on the the fallen. Their name obviously gives a clear background to their past- they were once great and have fallen from grace. They prowl around abandoned areas scrounging to find what they can while also trying to protect their precious binding necklace things the guardians are always trying to steal, one of the only possessions they have left. While some of them may be in service to the Queen it is clear that not all of them are and they are only trying to find a place in this world. They shoot guardians on sight due to how feared they are, killing everything they see. They fire on the Vex because, duh, space/time traveling robots. No brainer there. "The fallen are getting smarter." Now for the Hive. Yes while it's true that the spread like a plague, they simply wanted a home. They got one on the moon. The moon didnt "belong" to earth, yes they may have destroyed a base and killed many many people in the process but isn't that the way that many places on the earth were colonized and populated? The summoning of crota and such might be a bit overzealous but would they still do it if everyone didn't act like such an ass? The hive is only evil to those scared of them and not willing to understand. Finally the cabal. Yes the cabal are 800 pounds, highly militarized and destroy planets just for getting in their way. Who are we to believe with the information? The Ghost? The one that keeps telling us to trust him? Sounds kind of fishy. Maybe the are only so militarized because they can't trust anyone, the same as the hive. Everyone has to have a strong military if the hope to defend themselves. The ghost himself says not much is known about them except what was just described. This game needs a major lesson in ethics and civil rights js. *tldr the guardians are evil overlords, the fallen are trying to get back up to grace, the hive wants a place to call their own, and the cabal are assholes because everyone else is.

Thanks for all the support, last night was a hard one but I made it through it thanks to you guys. Hopefully tonight will be better. I have noticed that I feel more accomplished for smaller things and am more comfortable around girls. I feel some much more innocent and untainted. I have notice that off of porn and fapping I see women and women and not boobs and butt. I don't constantly think about women's bodies. Sometime when It gets hard on day 2 i think "I'm so pathetic I can't last 2 days" but then i just think "I'm so good I can last more than 2 days" TL;DR thanks reddit I'm now on day 3 and feeling great.

Inspired by User LushVelvet's recent posts, I tried out the Limp clitty hypno ( and discovered it was great! It's one of the 1st times I've really felt in trance--videos just don't do it for me, and this woman actually uses hypnotization techniques, which was nice. I basically have been able to stay limp since I've been listening, if not quite 100% flaccid. The one problem? She makes you rub one out when you come out of trance. Meant to get you used to cumming while limp (which was interesting in itself) but it's something I DON't want to do, and not just for sissy reasons, but health. I've found that abstaining from cumming increases my energy, focus, and for whatever reason inspires me to take better care of myself. There's pretty good science on this I think, testosterone needing to be replaced or something. So my dilemma: I love the state of arousal, bit if I get truly hard I'll going to rub one out. This makes limpclitty great, but then you rub one out anyway! This same person also has a hypno about not orgasming again, which I want to check out--but it is aimed MORE towards women and, again, I like arousal states so I don't exactly want to give those up. So basically, to TL;DR this thing, Any fellow gurls aware of a stay-limp hypno that doesn't make you cum at the end?

Yesterday I went to school and got some work done with a little group that we made while everybody in the class left. After that I started talking to one of the dudes in the group. We talked about a lot of spiritual stuff, he was addicted to drugs, porn, and into deep shit. The guy was very friendly. Had planned to go to a female's friend house because she was inviting "some of her closer friends". Never knew I meant something other than to my parents. Not because of confident issues at this point in my life but because I'm normally the type of person that doesn't create a bond by sharing personal stuff. I'm also the quiet one in high energy groups. Well, went off to her house, had dinner with her and five of her friends. It was great. We played dominoes the for a few hours and had a lot of casual talk. Got home by 12 and I was too tired to take a shower or write the journal. Went to sleep in the family room couch to not stink my bed. Woke up to a very rainy day. No problem I like rainy day. Went to the speech class, had a good time as always. Then went to the calculus business class in the other campus and my head started to formulate many thoughts...I was lost during the lecture, yes more of a lecture because this lady does math through Power Points. Part of me not understanding is not doing some of that math home work, from here and on I'm not going to talk about all the flaws of the professor and the class because making excuses is something that I want to leave behind for good. I didn't take enough notes during class, felt like it was pointless since I couldn't grasp the concept of anything. Left the class 15 minutes early, like a pussy, but felt so liberating, it's the first time ever that I leave a class early. Went to the library to start working on my "Project Renaissance" notebook. My rebirth. It's a personal project, an organized journal, aimed to help me write down all my questions, ideas, short term goals, and many other things. Wrote a page full of philosophical questions that I ask myself frequently. I will work on it on a daily basis. Learned few things today but not all the intended things that I was supposed to learn. Journal prompt: Talk about one of your fears. Looking like crap in front of my family. Sort of being scared of failure. Obviously, this journals are for us to reflect, if anybody reads my whole thing cool but here's the tldr; yesterday had a good day at school and went to a friend's house for dinner, today I chickened out of a class before my head exploded, felt good to leave but not the best thing to do, then I went to the library and started to work on my manuscript.
Yesterday I went to school and got some work done with a little group that we made while everybody in the class left. After that I started talking to one of the dudes in the group. We talked about a lot of spiritual stuff, he was addicted to drugs, porn, and into deep shit. The guy was very friendly.

So to be honest this is meant to be cathartic but I also really think it will help me to hear outside thoughts because I can't bring myself to talk about this, full story, with anyone I know. So I met this guy on Tinder 5 months ago. Right from the get go we got along super well, talked all day every day pretty much since we matched, like not constantly but an ongoing conversation. I really thought that I was just wanting to have fun with somebody and not take things to seriously, he had just gotten out of a 3 year relationship a couple months earlier and said he just wanted someone to talk to and fool around with. We met up and hung out two times before even kissing, we actually made a special we are going to make out today date. He was charming and funny and easygoing, I was a little weary at first of the whole thing but once we started hanging out I was smitten. It was supposed to be kind of a friend with benefits thing, but then the makeout date after we were done he asked me if I wanted to go get food and we talked at dinner about how with his ex they always split everything and how he was really money contentious and I told him I was more be conscious but not too worried about money and that I was partial to alternating picking up the tab on dates. I absolutely don't think the guy should have to always pay but by alternating it still feels like you're there together. And that night he insisted on paying and that's when I knew deep down that I wanted to really date him and it gave me hope. I kept it to myself though, I didn't want to scare him off or rush anything. As time went by though we continued talking constantly and sleeping together, although we would always pair it with another activity and it just started to feel like we were together. Even after an incident when we had made special plans and gotten a hotel, he, not thinking anything of it, showed me a tinder match he had gotten. His pictures did not reflect him well a they were quite old and he didn't get many matches. Well this really upset me, I know that I didn't have a right to be mad at him but I felt really hurt and when I finally admitted this to him after some time he offered to delete Tinder and be exclusive with me, not Serious but exclusively in-between. After that it got to be too much for me, and this is where I know things especially went wrong and where I know I should have stopped for my own well-being and it probably would have been best for both of us but I was getting anxiety about him all the time. I couldn't reconcile in my mind how we could be intellectually, physically, and even now emotionally invested in each other and not be a couple. I became so overwhelmed I ended it twice but lost my resolve hours later. We began talking about it more and more because I wanted to find an understanding that would make it okay and he would always exam that I was what he needed but that his last relationship left him feeling anxious about getting into another one. Finally in November I knew I could not deal with it anymore and I told him I couldn't keep doing what we were doing unless he committed to me. I really thought it was going to be over but he came back and said he wanted to try. I realize now I should have never done that, just because he said he would try doesn't mean that those anxieties and whatever was holding him back before disappeared. It kept plaguing our relationship, he admitted anxiety over planning dates, and this was on top of schedules that really only overlapped on the weekends or late evenings. I kept feeling anxious because I knew that he wasn't really mine, despite how much he talked to me and how much he tried to reassure me and make it better I just couldn't feel comfortable and stable in it and neither could he. And it broke my heart and still does because I adore him so much, he really became my best friend. He was always there to talk to and help me to work things out or even just feel better and the sex was fantastic, I just feel like we were so close. But then he also wasn't a super romantic guy either, I don't think he once called me beautiful and didn't spend much time affirming his affection for me, it was more like best friends who had sex which should be great in theory but it just didn't feel so great. Meanwhile my mom tells me that she doesn't want me seeing him because he doesn't go to university like me, but we agree that I just won't talk about it to her and I can continue which works for a while but it adds to my stress and anxiety. And it's affecting my school, I'm having trouble concentrating on my studying and I know I should just give it up but I can't bear the thought of being without him. That's the anxiety in the first place, either recognizing or imagining that he isn't really committed to a relationship with me, and me ending it would just actual use being without him. But then the absolute disaster strikes, I'm about to go out with him and my mom calls me and says that if I go with him I have to move out, that she thinks he's turning me against school and against her when he did neither of those things, he was nothing but supportive in both cases and my issues with school were my own anxiety. I couldn't stand the idea that I couldn't see someone because they were "beneath me" and I just cracked and went anyways. I went through most of the date trying to be normal but finally halfway through the movie I broke down and I tried to run away but he followed me and I told him everything. He comforted me and talked me through possibilities but when he went to take me home I had been locked out. So that night he took me to stay with him, which was sweet but very awkward as he still lived at home and I hadn't met his parents before. The next day I went home and my mom told me I had to give her all my electronics and I wasn't allowed to see or talk to him again. After some discussion and intervention from my brother it was changed to a month but as time went on and we continued fighting she admitted she never meant to let me see him after a month. I did start talking to him again after two weeks, but we decided to break up, it was too much conflict. But I really couldn't stand the idea of being without him, especially with the conflict between my mom and I, about things that she thought concerned him but didn't, I just really needed somebody to be there for me and support me like he had been, before him I had never opened up to anybody about anything really and never felt like I trusted them. So we talked and I said I wanted to try to pick up our original arrangement, and he agreed, starting with talking. And then after one particularly bad fight with my mom I called him and he told me he couldn't deal with it anymore, that I couldn't talk to him about it. I had never felt so absolutely alone but at the same time I understood, January was filled with more conflict and emotional turmoil than I thought possible and it wasn't his problems to be burdened with. But I worked it out with my mom after that, knowing that my family was the most important thing, the only assured support I had. And we kept on with talking and sexting and then when we broke up I had said that we didn't even get to have break up sex, and he brought up that we should do it. I thought it was like a joke because we had been picking back up everything else, with some awkwardness and offness granted but still trying and moving forward with it. But I admit I was anxious the whole time, worse than ever before, he went to a party the day after we broke up and started his tinder back up as a game with his friends and kept that going and I knew we weren't technically exclusive but it still kind of hurt. And then he would not respond quite as readily as he did before and not as eager to sext, I know now it was in response to my increased neediness and somewhat passive aggressive attempts to be his friend and not his girlfriend. One day I got upset to him when we were in the middle of sexting and he told me I could then do whatever I wanted, which had never happened before and I felt very unwanted and got upset with him over it. He told me it frustrated him that I would question it as I often did and to just trust that he did, I acknowledged it was a fault of mine to always assume that and promised to stop but he also promised not to start and then suddenly stop with me. After that it just got worse and worse though. I said I might want to hold off on the weekend when we were planning to spend the night together and do the "break up" sex thing but once we talked it through I wanted to but he said he had made plans which I knew was an excuse and so I pushed him on it and we talked and decided to do it. And that night was great, it was so amazing. But then the next day he said he thought we should hold off on sex for a while which really upset me and started another fight and then he said just talking, with the fighting that's all he felt comfortable with right now. To be friends first. But that's the problem, I don't think I'll be okay with just being his friend. But if I think to when we were "happy" I wasn't entirely happy. And it's the same problem just aggravated, I feel like he's not really in it even though he says he was and that it was just the fighting that put him off. I know I have trouble trusting him but I don't know if that's me or the situation and that he isn't really putting himself in a position for me to have trusted that he was trying and wanted that. It doesn't matter anymore we had a massive fight in the weekend and he set a two week break before we can even talk. And I couldn't even do it the first two days. I did it yesterday and most of today but then, and I knew it was such a bad idea the whole time, I tried to go see him after work to bring him dinner which anyone can see is the stupidest thing to try to do, I just felt like I had to do something, but it backfired so bad with him yelling at me and telling me how close he was to a breakdown and that he is thankful I want to make it better but I have to give him space for the rest of the two weeks. Why can't I do that? It's so straight forward and obviously not respecting what he asked is just making it worse, the first time I texted him I feel somewhat justified because it was after some reflection and things I needed him to know but even then. I feel like subconsciously I'm being self-destructive about this, like I really want out, but I feel like I would miss him so much, like a part if me would be gone. And I honestly feel like a crazy person, like to the point that I actually am considering going to the doctor to see if everything is working right. I just want to make it better so bad and have a good relationship with him but I feel like it's so broken now and it was never really solid from the beginning. I just need to hear some other people say what they think I should do, even if I already have a good idea. --- **tl;dr met a guy last august, friends with benefits to a relationship but never really felt loved, but still had great moments, shit went down and now I feel crazy and broken and don't know how to fix it or if I should even try.

As time went by though we continued talking constantly and sleeping together, although we would always pair it with another activity and it just started to feel like we were together. Even after an incident when we had made special plans and gotten a hotel, he, not thinking anything of it, showed me a tinder match he had gotten. His pictures did not reflect him well a they were quite old and he didn't get many matches. Well this really upset me, I know that I didn't have a right to be mad at him but I felt really hurt and when I finally admitted this to him after some time he offered to delete Tinder and be exclusive with me, not Serious but exclusively in-between. After that it got to be too much for me, and this is where I know things especially went wrong and where I know I should have stopped for my own well-being and it probably would have been best for both of us but I was getting anxiety about him all the time. I couldn't reconcile in my mind how we could be intellectually, physically, and even now emotionally invested in each other and not be a couple. I became so overwhelmed I ended it twice but lost my resolve hours later. We began talking about it more and more because I wanted to find an understanding that would make it okay and he would always exam that I was what he needed but that his last relationship left him feeling anxious about getting into another one. Finally in November I knew I could not deal with it anymore and I told him I couldn't keep doing what we were doing unless he committed to me. I really thought it was going to be over but he came back and said he wanted to try. I realize now I should have never done that, just because he said he would try doesn't mean that those anxieties and whatever was holding him back before disappeared. It kept plaguing our relationship, he admitted anxiety over planning dates, and this was on top of schedules that really only overlapped on the weekends or late evenings. I kept feeling anxious because I knew that he wasn't really mine, despite how much he talked to me and how much he tried to reassure me and make it better I just couldn't feel comfortable and stable in it and neither could he. And it broke my heart and still does because I adore him so much, he really became my best friend. He was always there to talk to and help me to work things out or even just feel better and the sex was fantastic, I just feel like we were so close. But then he also wasn't a super romantic guy either, I don't think he once called me beautiful and didn't spend much time affirming his affection for me, it was more like best friends who had sex which should be great in theory but it just didn't feel so great. Meanwhile my mom tells me that she doesn't want me seeing him because he doesn't go to university like me, but we agree that I just won't talk about it to her and I can continue which works for a while but it adds to my stress and anxiety. And it's affecting my school, I'm having trouble concentrating on my studying and I know I should just give it up but I can't bear the thought of being without him. That's the anxiety in the first place, either recognizing or imagining that he isn't really committed to a relationship with me, and me ending it would just actual use being without him. But then the absolute disaster strikes, I'm about to go out with him and my mom calls me and says that if I go with him I have to move out, that she thinks he's turning me against school and against her when he did neither of those things, he was nothing but supportive in both cases and my issues with school were my own anxiety. I couldn't stand the idea that I couldn't see someone because they were "beneath me" and I just cracked and went anyways. I went through most of the date trying to be normal but finally halfway through the movie I broke down and I tried to run away but he followed me and I told him everything. He comforted me and talked me through possibilities but when he went to take me home I had been locked out. So that night he took me to stay with him, which was sweet but very awkward as he still lived at home and I hadn't met his parents before. The next day I went home and my mom told me I had to give her all my electronics and I wasn't allowed to see or talk to him again. After some discussion and intervention from my brother it was changed to a month but as time went on and we continued fighting she admitted she never meant to let me see him after a month. I did start talking to him again after two weeks, but we decided to break up, it was too much conflict. But I really couldn't stand the idea of being without him, especially with the conflict between my mom and I, about things that she thought concerned him but didn't, I just really needed somebody to be there for me and support me like he had been, before him I had never opened up to anybody about anything really and never felt like I trusted them. So we talked and I said I wanted to try to pick up our original arrangement, and he agreed, starting with talking. And then after one particularly bad fight with my mom I called him and he told me he couldn't deal with it anymore, that I couldn't talk to him about it. I had never felt so absolutely alone but at the same time I understood, January was filled with more conflict and emotional turmoil than I thought possible and it wasn't his problems to be burdened with. But I worked it out with my mom after that, knowing that my family was the most important thing, the only assured support I had. And we kept on with talking and sexting and then when we broke up I had said that we didn't even get to have break up sex, and he brought up that we should do it. I thought it was like a joke because we had been picking back up everything else, with some awkwardness and offness granted but still trying and moving forward with it. But I admit I was anxious the whole time, worse than ever before, he went to a party the day after we broke up and started his tinder back up as a game with his friends and kept that going and I knew we weren't technically exclusive but it still kind of hurt. And then he would not respond quite as readily as he did before and not as eager to sext, I know now it was in response to my increased neediness and somewhat passive aggressive attempts to be his friend and not his girlfriend. One day I got upset to him when we were in the middle of sexting and he told me I could then do whatever I wanted, which had never happened before and I felt very unwanted and got upset with him over it. He told me it frustrated him that I would question it as I often did and to just trust that he did, I acknowledged it was a fault of mine to always assume that and promised to stop but he also promised not to start and then suddenly stop with me. After that it just got worse and worse though. I said I might want to hold off on the weekend when we were planning to spend the night together and do the "break up" sex thing but once we talked it through I wanted to but he said he had made plans which I knew was an excuse and so I pushed him on it and we talked and decided to do it. And that night was great, it was so amazing. But then the next day he said he thought we should hold off on sex for a while which really upset me and started another fight and then he said just talking, with the fighting that's all he felt comfortable with right now. To be friends first. But that's the problem, I don't think I'll be okay with just being his friend. But if I think to when we were "happy" I wasn't entirely happy. And it's the same problem just aggravated, I feel like he's not really in it even though he says he was and that it was just the fighting that put him off. I know I have trouble trusting him but I don't know if that's me or the situation and that he isn't really putting himself in a position for me to have trusted that he was trying and wanted that. It doesn't matter anymore we had a massive fight in the weekend and he set a two week break before we can even talk. And I couldn't even do it the first two days. I did it yesterday and most of today but then, and I knew it was such a bad idea the whole time, I tried to go see him after work to bring him dinner which anyone can see is the stupidest thing to try to do, I just felt like I had to do something, but it backfired so bad with him yelling at me and telling me how close he was to a breakdown and that he is thankful I want to make it better but I have to give him space for the rest of the two weeks. Why can't I do that? It's so straight forward and obviously not respecting what he asked is just making it worse, the first time I texted him I feel somewhat justified because it was after some reflection and things I needed him to know but even then. I feel like subconsciously I'm being self-destructive about this, like I really want out, but I feel like I would miss him so much, like a part if me would be gone. And I honestly feel like a crazy person, like to the point that I actually am considering going to the doctor to see if everything is working right. I just want to make it better so bad and have a good relationship with him but I feel like it's so broken now and it was never really solid from the beginning. I just need to hear some other people say what they think I should do, even if I already have a good idea. **tl;dr met a guy last august, friends with benefits to a relationship but never really felt loved, but still had great moments, shit went down and now I feel crazy and broken and don't know how to fix it or if I should even try.

So to be honest this is meant to be cathartic but I also really think it will help me to hear outside thoughts because I can't bring myself to talk about this, full story, with anyone I know. So I met this guy on Tinder 5 months ago. Right from the get go we got along super well, talked all day every day pretty much since we matched, like not constantly but an ongoing conversation. I really thought that I was just wanting to have fun with somebody and not take things to seriously, he had just gotten out of a 3 year relationship a couple months earlier and said he just wanted someone to talk to and fool around with. We met up and hung out two times before even kissing, we actually made a special we are going to make out today date. He was charming and funny and easygoing, I was a little weary at first of the whole thing but once we started hanging out I was smitten. It was supposed to be kind of a friend with benefits thing, but then the makeout date after we were done he asked me if I wanted to go get food and we talked at dinner about how with his ex they always split everything and how he was really money contentious and I told him I was more be conscious but not too worried about money and that I was partial to alternating picking up the tab on dates. I absolutely don't think the guy should have to always pay but by alternating it still feels like you're there together. And that night he insisted on paying and that's when I knew deep down that I wanted to really date him and it gave me hope. I kept it to myself though, I didn't want to scare him off or rush anything. As time went by though we continued talking constantly and sleeping together, although we would always pair it with another activity and it just started to feel like we were together.

I have personally never fainted but my sister has on about three occasions. When we were younger and lived with our parents we would often smoke in our bathroom (the furthest from my parents room and easiest to air out) but it was so tiny usually one would sit on the toilet lid and one would stand. Well during one of our sister bonding times she took a big hit and while I (sitting on the toilet) concentrated on my hit, I see her wobble in my peripheral and look up to successfully catch her with one arm before her head made contact with the sink. Nothing is more terrifying than being at an [8] and coming up with scenarios on explaining how my sister passed out to my parents. After a couple shakes she wakes up and has no idea how she got to the floor and is not even at a [2]. I first thought it was lack of oxygen but on other occasions it happened after an exhale smoke/inhale air. Has anyone else experienced fainting? Why or what caused it in your opinion? (TL:DR sister fainted after smoking woke up fine, any similar experiences?)

So, this could just be a filler text post, but I feel the main reason I absolutely can't wait for season 7 is how most of the girls have something excellent to bring. Nearly everyone is good at something, and I think that shows in our difficulty to even begin to theorize an elimination order. SO here goes! In no particular order, of course. - Kennedy. Kennedy is a performer in more than one way. From what I've seen around the internet, she never fails to bring a good look, dances the house down, and from a statement about covergurlz she says she even used to sing! I can't wait to see her on the competition. - Pearl. Pearl, pearl, pearl. I love her lip sync style to DEATH, it only worries me that I don't know if she can adapt it to a song that she may get if she ends up lip syncing. Beyond that, though, I love her aesthetic, her RBR, and am thrilled to see her personality in the race. - Ms. Kasha Davis seems to be another underdog. She has the housewife act down, with a developed sense of humor alongside it. If she can bring the looks, which I feel she might, we might see her go far! - Sasha Belle! She is personality from head to toe, and I've seen her pull some good looks as well. Known for bringing a new drag daughter to the world every Sunday, she seems like she's a people person, and since the competition has a lot of fashionable contenders, she might have to up her game to make it, but if she surprises us we'll all end up loving her. - Miss Fame. Face face face face. I love her tutorials and I love her makeup, much like 99% of people walking the earth. We've seen she's not afraid to be a bit goofy, so that's a step to a successful contender! Only afraid that, since there are a lot of good lip syncers, she might be screwed if odds land her in the bottom. - Violet Chachki, or Purple Doodad, was one I wasn't impressed with by the MTQ, but since the trailer I looked her up a bit more and can say that she is FIERCE! It was a bit hard to judge her attitude on the MTQ since it was apparently 8AM and we've all been there, but even if she turns out to be the ""villain"", I won't mind in the slightest if she BRINGS IT. - Katya, I wasn't big on her, but ever since discovering her tumblr I find that her sense of humor is something very odd, definitely not for everyone, but definitely for me. She seems to love her body suits, and has a good face to boot. I really want to see what she can deliver in terms of looks, and if she makes more rowdy decisions like we saw on the trailer, I might come to like her even more! - Jaidynn! I can NOT wait to see her on the show. She lives up to her last name! She is a great performer, has that personality that is just contagiously funny (from what we've seen, hence why I can't wait to see if the show reflects that) and seems to overall know her shit. She knows what looks good on her, and isn't afraid to go a bit out there! - Max. I'm an absolute SUCKER for her aesthetic. I love the old vintage look, and it seems that to go along with it she brings us good fashion combined with creativity to boot. Definitely one to watch out for. I'm not very worried about "versatility" because, at least to me, she can bring everything while still being true to her 80s look. - Jasmine Masters... Has a pretty photo? - Ginger Minj.. I am LIVING for Ginger!! I love how absolutely funny she is, and effortlessly so! We didn't get to see many looks from the trailer, but I'm definitely hoping that she can live up to being able to do everything, from pageant to camp. +1 one from me, can't wait! - Trixie Mattel, I love her barbie doll look, and her makeup is definitely the most striking thing about it. All in all, I feel she knows different ways to do her face all within the look she strives for, while keeping true to the plastic look. She looks like she knows her shit and is also a fierce lip syncer! Definitely one to look out for. - Kandy Ho. I admit that I've not dug up as much on her as I have for the other queens, but I still feel (and hope!) she will bring drop dead gorgeous looks while doing well for herself in the challenges. I really want a PR queen to win since, being from Portugal, I'd love to see a hispanic queen take home the crown. - Tempest! She is definitely old, but with age comes experience, and she definitely does not seem like a drag. I like her color themed looks, and with her not being hesitant to be funny, I'm excited to see her on the race to represent the older queens that are still bringing it! Sorry for the TL;DR, but I'm so excited for (nearly) all these queens that I just can't handle it.

Known for bringing a new drag daughter to the world every Sunday, she seems like she's a people person, and since the competition has a lot of fashionable contenders, she might have to up her game to make it, but if she surprises us we'll all end up loving her. Miss Fame. Face face face face. I love her tutorials and I love her makeup, much like 99% of people walking the earth. We've seen she's not afraid to be a bit goofy, so that's a step to a successful contender! Only afraid that, since there are a lot of good lip syncers, she might be screwed if odds land her in the bottom. Violet Chachki, or Purple Doodad, was one I wasn't impressed with by the MTQ, but since the trailer I looked her up a bit more and can say that she is FIERCE! It was a bit hard to judge her attitude on the MTQ since it was apparently 8AM and we've all been there, but even if she turns out to be the ""villain"", I won't mind in the slightest if she BRINGS IT. Katya, I wasn't big on her, but ever since discovering her tumblr I find that her sense of humor is something very odd, definitely not for everyone, but definitely for me. She seems to love her body suits, and has a good face to boot. I really want to see what she can deliver in terms of looks, and if she makes more rowdy decisions like we saw on the trailer, I might come to like her even more! Jaidynn! I can NOT wait to see her on the show. She lives up to her last name! She is a great performer, has that personality that is just contagiously funny (from what we've seen, hence why I can't wait to see if the show reflects that) and seems to overall know her shit. She knows what looks good on her, and isn't afraid to go a bit out there! Max. I'm an absolute SUCKER for her aesthetic. I love the old vintage look, and it seems that to go along with it she brings us good fashion combined with creativity to boot. Definitely one to watch out for. I'm not very worried about "versatility" because, at least to me, she can bring everything while still being true to her 80s look. Jasmine Masters... Has a pretty photo? Ginger Minj.. I am LIVING for Ginger!! I love how absolutely funny she is, and effortlessly so! We didn't get to see many looks from the trailer, but I'm definitely hoping that she can live up to being able to do everything, from pageant to camp. +1 one from me, can't wait! Trixie Mattel, I love her barbie doll look, and her makeup is definitely the most striking thing about it. All in all, I feel she knows different ways to do her face all within the look she strives for, while keeping true to the plastic look. She looks like she knows her shit and is also a fierce lip syncer! Definitely one to look out for. Kandy Ho. I admit that I've not dug up as much on her as I have for the other queens, but I still feel (and hope!) she will bring drop dead gorgeous looks while doing well for herself in the challenges. I really want a PR queen to win since, being from Portugal, I'd love to see a hispanic queen take home the crown. Tempest! She is definitely old, but with age comes experience, and she definitely does not seem like a drag. I like her color themed looks, and with her not being hesitant to be funny, I'm excited to see her on the race to represent the older queens that are still bringing it! Sorry for the
but I'm so excited for (nearly) all these queens that I just can't handle it.

Our church has been around for five years. In that time, not a single volunteer, including the pastor had been paid for their services excluding a temp position in the summer that we contract out. This is bad practice for the future of our church and I would like to start compensating our pastor for his work. He is bi-vocational and works very hard. I personally have just taken over as church treasurer, but this is my first rodeo so to speak. We are a very small church in a low income area and bring in about $2000 a month mostly from about 4 families from outside the area. We in nine can afford to give our pastor a proper salary, but I would like us to begin giving him something. $100 a month to be specific, just so that when the church does grow, we are prepared to increase that. So TL;DR how would you pay a pastor $100 a month? What do we need to do to make sure we do it right and not screw up the taxes and stuff?

Hey all, First off let's preface this whole thing with the following: I'm not here to hear about which branch I SHOULD go with, which branch is better, etc etc. I've been to a couple other forums and that's all I've gotten. So if you're Army, Navy, Marine, good on you, I'm going Air Force, let's pocket all that junk. The reason I'm here is to decide where I should put my goals over the next 8 months in body building. I've been on a a pretty linear bulk for the past 2 months and planned on running a bulk until later in this year. With all that being said, I recently decided to take a solid, determined step forward in my career and join the Air Force. So now I'm at a crossroads. Obviously I want to be in incredibly shape for BMT, however, I would like to continue bulking up and adding size. I graduated high school at 5'8" ~160lbs, 10-11% BF in 2010. I didn't get serious about lifting until about 3 years ago, and didn't have any good resources to know I was eating poorly until about 1.5 years ago. I'm currently 5'8" ~185, 13%BF so I've put on some mass, but I want to keep that ball rolling. So my *TL;DR* question: If I'm training to do well at basic training, should I continue my bulk until then, supplement in a BUNCH of cardio and BW exercises, cut up while I'm there, lose some muscle mass, and pick up where I left off before I left? Or rather should I go ahead and abandon bulking until I'm back and focus on training for the goals the USAF sets? I've heard from a few friends who have gone through basic that I will lose gains at BMT, so am I going to lose so much that it isn't even worth bulking until then? Additionally, I realize doing well physically at BMT isn't going to get me anywhere career wise, I'd just rather basic be relatively easy than daunting physically.

So this comes as a response to a number of threads on the front page, but particularly [this thread]( and even more specifically [this comment]( People keep saying "why don't they just balance guns once for PvP and once for PvE" as if that's a trivial task. But it's really not. There are so many factors to consider here, that I think one could easily spend a few hours brainstorming ways in which this kind of thinking could break the game. It's not so simple to say "oh let's just have every gun work differently in each mode." You're talking about taking guns that should *feel* identical while staying perfectly balanced in entirely different environments. If I get The Last Word, I want it to feel like The Last Word in every environment. When I pull out Suros Regime, I want to feel like I get a slow-firing high-damage auto rifle that pumps out more pain the longer I fire. That essential feeling is what makes guns unique, and if they buff things too unevenly between modes, that feeling *can and will* end up broken somewhere. That's the design problem, but it's also a code problem. Start from point A - all your guns work the same. Easy, one block of code for how all weapons work. Well then we want Primary, Secondary, and Heavy. 3 blocks of code, plus probably some shared code. Oh now there are multiple classes of weapons within each, so we have the code for each type, plus the shared code for each slot, plus the shared code for how weapons work. Then we bring in exotics vs legendaries vs rares and perks, and you see where the code is getting huge already. So by splitting up weapon classes into PvP vs PvE stats, you're talking about a huge jump in code, again. Up to doubling that whole code base, so that you can provide balance in both spheres. And the issue here isn't really even code management, because more code isn't necessarily harder to write (and there are things like scripting, and abstracting, and tons of ways to make that easier). It's an issue of consistency - what happens when a bug is found in the code for the way auto rifles work? Is it somewhere that you can fix it across all spheres, or is it in the area that lives in the PvP and PvE code? If it is, you need to fix it twice, and make sure the differences in your PvP and PvE code even have the same fix.(maybe you've made changes that have larger implications?) Or when you do want to balance/change/fix a weapon - will those changes have the same effect on both spheres? Hypothetically, you make sniper rifles shoot slower across the board on PvP - does a specific sniper rifle have a perk that causes it to then be unbalanced in PvP and not in PvP? Do you fix that by adjusting the PvP specific changes or the PvE ones? Balancing separately may seem like it frees up some of the cross-consequences, and you may argue that the problem is that changes in PvP or PvE are currently impacting the other sphere in unexpected ways. But somewhere these weapons, the code and the design, need to converge. And the more and more that they get split, the more difficult it will be to ensure that everything actually works as expected. Ultimately, I'm not suggesting a better answer to these issues. This post could be about something other than PvE and PvP balancing, and it would still be applicable to this subreddit. The real tl;dr here is that game design and development is NOT simple, it is NOT easy, and there are almost never obvious right answers. If you disagree, I would challenge you to make your own games and learn the wonderful beast that is game design - where you build tools of joy that your biggest fans rip apart and yell at you for messing up.

My cat, Fievel, is 5 years old. I got him when he was around 5 months old at animal control and he'd already been tested for FIV, etc.... He was negative for everything but seemed very small for his age. Over the years, he’s shown himself to be kind of “special” – he’s very sweet, but he seems neurologically behind every other cat that I’ve ever had. I know you could say all cats have some sort of a personality disorder or social problem, but if you took an autistic child and applied those traits to a cat, you’d get Fievel (except he responds to his own name and gets along with others). He also has had mysterious health issues here and there for the past five years, most notably a skin problem that broke out on his face/head. We were fostering another cat and it started right after, so I think it was stress related, but his hair fell out all over his head/face and he developed red sores and his skin was flaking off in sheets. We had him tested for mites (which seemed unlikely since he’s strictly an indoor cat and has never been outside since I’ve had him), ringworm, just about every other kind of fungus, etc. Finally, after almost a thousand dollars and three different vets scratching their heads, he was given a steroid shot to keep him from scratching and we were given an anti-fungal topical medication (looks like eye drops) even though it wasn’t a fungus, that seemed to clear him up. I don’t know if his body just spontaneously healed and the timing was a coincidence, but we still have the topical stuff in the fridge. Occasionally he starts getting blackheads (looks different than regular acne) and we’ll apply it and it will go away. He has also had problems with his teeth/gums. His front teeth have been falling out/gums receding and he only has his bottom front teeth and fangs left. He has all of his molars, but they’re in horrible condition and his gums are always infected. We were advised by a vet to get some of the back teeth (and front that were dangling by roots) removed, so we took him to another (cheaper) vet to do it. While on the table and unconscious, the vet decided he just needed a teeth cleaning (he was about 3 at the time) and send us on our merry way. About 2 months later, the problem returned and we periodically give him antibiotics to keep it at bay. Lately, more teeth have been loosening up and his mouth has gotten a lot worse. We moved from Chicago to NYC and found a new, fairly inexpensive (it’s all relative) vet in Brooklyn who also has amazing reviews on yelp. We took Fievel there and she said he has a condition that causes his teeth to dissolve, so we will have to get a dental done with extractions. Before that though, we all wanted to get blood work done on him, so we did. It came back with some high levels here and there, but she thought a lot of it was due to the raging infection in his mouth. However, she saw something in the report that indicated his kidneys were not doing so great, so we scheduled a urinalysis. While extracting urine, it looked cloudy and she suspected a UTI. We got his urine tested for everything you can, and everything was ok (no infection) EXCEPT his “specific gravity” numbers or something like that. Apparently a cat is supposed to be around 1.030 and he is at 1.019. This indicates poor kidney function. So now, before the dental, she wants to do an ultrasound, which will cost us a lot of money that, though we have, is tight for us. My guess is he’s been having kidney issues for a while and because we took him in for his teeth, we discovered it. She wants us to do the ultrasound before the dental, but we’re already looking at around 400 for the dental. The ultrasound will be another 300. At this point, we have all of his numbers – what will an ultrasound show us that we don’t already know or that we can do something about? Clearly his kidneys are having problems, but what will an ultrasound show us? We already have him on Wellness wet food and are willing to switch him to something better on his kidneys, but what else could we possibly see that we can actually do something about. If he does have renal disease, aren’t we doing all we can by keeping him hydrated and feeding him the best food we can? The thing that is bugging me (and the vet clearly is trying to help us – she even called us last night to go over test results at 10 pm so I’m not trying to be too critical of her) is that she insists we get the ultrasound before his teeth. We told her that we’re tight on funds (our dog is also up for his annual check up/heartworm test/fecal smear/shots next month), but his teeth are the ones falling out and his mouth is infected. What else will the ultrasound show us that we can actually act on? She keeps insisting that she doesn’t think it’s renal disease/failure because of his age, which makes no sense to me. All of the numbers point to renal disease. I realize that normally 5 year old cats don’t start up with symptoms of the disease, but Fievel has never been 100% healthy like a normal cat. I don’t know if he was the runt or what. Just because it's not normal doesn't mean it isn't possible. I feel like often, the most obvious answer is probably the right one. Anyway, what do you guys think? Any vets? Is this vet trying to get extra $$ out of us for an ultrasound we don’t need or could it actually be beneficial? I don’t know enough about feline medicine to know what to do, but should we get in a fight with her about the ultrasound thing so we can get his teeth done? She said she wanted to know if it was renal disease so they could give him fluids before surgery for his teeth to keep him from getting dehydrated. Can’t we just assume something is up with his kidneys, address the ultrasound later, and get his teeth done with the extra fluids? What would you do? Again, she clearly is trying and I don’t want to go to war if I don’t have to, but I also don’t want to get jerked around and bled for more dollars by a city vet that wants more $$ from us than necessary. Sorry, I don't think I can TL;DR this one.

He has all of his molars, but they’re in horrible condition and his gums are always infected. We were advised by a vet to get some of the back teeth (and front that were dangling by roots) removed, so we took him to another (cheaper) vet to do it. While on the table and unconscious, the vet decided he just needed a teeth cleaning (he was about 3 at the time) and send us on our merry way. About 2 months later, the problem returned and we periodically give him antibiotics to keep it at bay. Lately, more teeth have been loosening up and his mouth has gotten a lot worse. We moved from Chicago to NYC and found a new, fairly inexpensive (it’s all relative) vet in Brooklyn who also has amazing reviews on yelp. We took Fievel there and she said he has a condition that causes his teeth to dissolve, so we will have to get a dental done with extractions. Before that though, we all wanted to get blood work done on him, so we did. It came back with some high levels here and there, but she thought a lot of it was due to the raging infection in his mouth. However, she saw something in the report that indicated his kidneys were not doing so great, so we scheduled a urinalysis. While extracting urine, it looked cloudy and she suspected a UTI. We got his urine tested for everything you can, and everything was ok (no infection) EXCEPT his “specific gravity” numbers or something like that. Apparently a cat is supposed to be around 1.030 and he is at 1.019. This indicates poor kidney function. So now, before the dental, she wants to do an ultrasound, which will cost us a lot of money that, though we have, is tight for us. My guess is he’s been having kidney issues for a while and because we took him in for his teeth, we discovered it. She wants us to do the ultrasound before the dental, but we’re already looking at around 400 for the dental. The ultrasound will be another 300. At this point, we have all of his numbers – what will an ultrasound show us that we don’t already know or that we can do something about? Clearly his kidneys are having problems, but what will an ultrasound show us? We already have him on Wellness wet food and are willing to switch him to something better on his kidneys, but what else could we possibly see that we can actually do something about. If he does have renal disease, aren’t we doing all we can by keeping him hydrated and feeding him the best food we can? The thing that is bugging me (and the vet clearly is trying to help us – she even called us last night to go over test results at 10 pm so I’m not trying to be too critical of her) is that she insists we get the ultrasound before his teeth. We told her that we’re tight on funds (our dog is also up for his annual check up/heartworm test/fecal smear/shots next month), but his teeth are the ones falling out and his mouth is infected. What else will the ultrasound show us that we can actually act on? She keeps insisting that she doesn’t think it’s renal disease/failure because of his age, which makes no sense to me. All of the numbers point to renal disease. I realize that normally 5 year old cats don’t start up with symptoms of the disease, but Fievel has never been 100% healthy like a normal cat. I don’t know if he was the runt or what. Just because it's not normal doesn't mean it isn't possible. I feel like often, the most obvious answer is probably the right one. Anyway, what do you guys think? Any vets? Is this vet trying to get extra $$ out of us for an ultrasound we don’t need or could it actually be beneficial? I don’t know enough about feline medicine to know what to do, but should we get in a fight with her about the ultrasound thing so we can get his teeth done? She said she wanted to know if it was renal disease so they could give him fluids before surgery for his teeth to keep him from getting dehydrated. Can’t we just assume something is up with his kidneys, address the ultrasound later, and get his teeth done with the extra fluids? What would you do? Again, she clearly is trying and I don’t want to go to war if I don’t have to, but I also don’t want to get jerked around and bled for more dollars by a city vet that wants more $$ from us than necessary. Sorry, I don't think I can

Hello /r/Christianity. I'm a Norwegian redditor and agnostic atheist who reads /r/Atheism, and I often notice is that people there (read: american atheists) talk about baptists, catholics, mormons and so on. Here in Norway nearly every christian is member of the state church, which I think is lutheran or something. The point is, I don't know what different "groups" (what is the right word anyway?) there are except the broadest definitions (protestant, catholic, orthodox), or what they stand for. For example, all I know about mormons is from that one South Park episode, and that's probably not the least biased source. I could probably find what I want on google/wikipedia, but then I would get *too much* information. I'd like a short, tl;dr-style explanation of what makes christianity type X different from the others. Care to help?

Just because more people celebrate Christmas in a religious (Christian) fashion than most other western holidays with pagan/Christian roots, doesn't mean atheists should feel any more awkward celebrating it than any other secularized western cultural holiday. Do you ever hear atheists saying they should have a problem celebrating Halloween, St. Patrick's Day or New Year's Day? Well... ***** **Halloween** — The very name of the holiday is a compound of "*All Hallows Evening*", referring to the day before All Hallows Day, which is a Catholic feast that was moved from mid-May to November 1 in the Middle Ages by the Church, likely in an effort to co-opt the Celtic pagan holiday of Samhain which took place October 31. So not only is the term Halloween representative of a Catholic holiday, but neo-pagans still celebrate Halloween/Samhain *in a religious fashion* today, so why doesn't that stop atheists from celebrating Halloween? **St. Patrick's Day** — A Roman Catholic holiday celebrating ***the Christianization of Ireland.*** Seriously?!? Atheists make more of a fuss about celebrating Christmas than this holiday? But I still have nothing against celebrating St. Patrick's Day secularly, because that's what it's evolved to... a secular western holiday with Catholic roots. Just like Christmas/Halloween/Valentine's Day. **New Year's Day** — The reason we celebrate New Year's Day on ***January*** 1 is because Roman pagans believed that the god Janus, for whom January is named, [had two opposing faces]( and the mythology surrounding celebrating the arrival of Janus' month was that he was looking simultaneously back on the previous year and forward to the next. ***NOTE:*** In the Middle Ages, New Year's Day was changed in Christendom from January 1 to the supposed date of Jesus' conception, March 25. If this had stuck to the present day in the secular world, we'd be celebrating New Year's Day in March for *that* reason. So in conclusion (**TL;DR**): almost all holidays have some religious background, and just because some (or many) religious people might still celebrate any one holiday religiously today doesn't mean atheists can't celebrate in secularly as part of western tradition **without** needing to feel guilty about it or rationalize it any more than anyone else.

So not only is the term Halloween representative of a Catholic holiday, but neo-pagans still celebrate Halloween/Samhain in a religious fashion today, so why doesn't that stop atheists from celebrating Halloween? St. Patrick's Day — A Roman Catholic holiday celebrating the Christianization of Ireland. Seriously?!? Atheists make more of a fuss about celebrating Christmas than this holiday? But I still have nothing against celebrating St. Patrick's Day secularly, because that's what it's evolved to... a secular western holiday with Catholic roots. Just like Christmas/Halloween/Valentine's Day. New Year's Day — The reason we celebrate New Year's Day on January 1 is because Roman pagans believed that the god Janus, for whom January is named, [had two opposing faces]( and the mythology surrounding celebrating the arrival of Janus' month was that he was looking simultaneously back on the previous year and forward to the next. NOTE: In the Middle Ages, New Year's Day was changed in Christendom from January 1 to the supposed date of Jesus' conception, March 25. If this had stuck to the present day in the secular world, we'd be celebrating New Year's Day in March for that reason. So in conclusion ( TL;DR ): almost all holidays have some religious background, and just because some (or many) religious people might still celebrate any one holiday religiously today doesn't mean atheists can't celebrate in secularly as part of western tradition without needing to feel guilty about it or rationalize it any more than anyone else.

Deepstrike was truly a terrible server for defiants. The ah prices are about 10-20x higher for everything and almost every guardian in wf's was r8. There were also no healers, every wf was 15 rogues, 13 of them mm. People on defiant side seemed to think the population was even, even though there were groups of 15-20 rank 8's that camped the pvp dailies every day. Got to sunrest and just got out of a library where I was topping charts and had a pocket healer (still in blues) and pvp was actually fun! I would have ended up lower since I'm only p2, but my sub ran out in the middle. After a few wf's that weren't r8 gankfests I was pretty happy. Only 20k prestige and lots of favor left for p3! cool story bro, etc, tldr: never roll defiant on deepstrike, pve heroes in bg's ftw Here's hoping they hit MM and leave NB alone next patch Any pvpers in the reddit guild?

Saw this sub mentioned in another thread, and figured why not make use of a throwaway account. I'd thought about leaving this mortal coil when I was a teen, like other kids at that age, because at the time it seemed that my life flat out sucked. I rationalized my way out of it, and am glad I did - there's just so much out there, and plenty of time to find joy. I never mentioned it to anyone, nor did it get to the point of an actual attempt (partly because I couldn't think of a way to do it quickly, painlessly, and cleanly). High school does indeed eventually end. Now I'm in my mid 30's, college grad, don't live with my parents, and from the outside appear to live a pretty sweet life. However, I've started thinking about it again off and on for a few years - more on than off recently. There hasn't been any major traumatic incident (though I am now unemployed, but that hasn't really stressed me much), and I don't even know if I'd consider myself depressed. I'm not happy, but not particularly depressed either. For the longest time, I'd say I haven't really cared if I lived or died, but was just rather apathetic about my life; I'm not gonna jump in front of a bus, but I don't know how hard I'd fight to stay alive in a life or death situation. I don't think there are any clinical psych issues - I do feel emotion, and get happy/sad about things, but as far as the grand scheme of things / meaning of life, I'm just "meh". I guess it's less of a "I can't handle it anymore" situation, but more of a "why bother?" situation, and I'm kinda drawing a blank on an answer. I haven't contacted a hotline or the like, as it's said doing so is often an emotional call for help, but I don't think I'm really asking for help here - rather just airing it out there. I'm a bit socially awkward, and related to that, I don't have a wife, gf, nor kids to be responsible for; nobody is depending on me. I had a good job, looked ok/good (I think, though a bit of low self esteem in that department), nice car, etc - stuff movies/society suggest you need to get a gf, but still never had long term relationship. Never even been on a real date - a few lunches here and there, and I was seeing a girl while in college, but tl;dr, it was just a physical thing and we never went on a "real" date. Now that I'm a bit older, a bit heavier (not clinically obese), I'm sort of starting to think it's a bit too late in that area - I don't know that I'm much of a catch anymore, plus the pool of good women has significantly decreased with most of the reasonable age bracket being already married, overly complicated, or just plain crazy (kidding on that last point). If I ended up settling on someone just to not be alone, it wouldn't really be fair to her, nor myself. My family's not that close - sure they'd be hurt if I was gone, but they'll get over it. My group of friends has always been rather small, but again, we're not that close. I'm just not really sure what reason there is for me to live, aside from taking up space and using up our planet's resources - which slightly nudges the needle from being right between wanting to live and wanting to die, towards wanting to die. I could go back to work, buy a nice house with giant tv and whatever other stuff people say you need to be happy, but to what end? In thinking about a way to leave, I do want to minimize any negative effects on others (whether it be emotional/physical/convenience/etc) as well as myself, and I've finally thought of a way to do so. I won't go in to any detail, but as far as I can see, it wouldn't definitively look like suicide, which would hopefully lessen any loss felt by others.

Saw this sub mentioned in another thread, and figured why not make use of a throwaway account. I'd thought about leaving this mortal coil when I was a teen, like other kids at that age, because at the time it seemed that my life flat out sucked. I rationalized my way out of it, and am glad I did - there's just so much out there, and plenty of time to find joy. I never mentioned it to anyone, nor did it get to the point of an actual attempt (partly because I couldn't think of a way to do it quickly, painlessly, and cleanly). High school does indeed eventually end. Now I'm in my mid 30's, college grad, don't live with my parents, and from the outside appear to live a pretty sweet life. However, I've started thinking about it again off and on for a few years - more on than off recently. There hasn't been any major traumatic incident (though I am now unemployed, but that hasn't really stressed me much), and I don't even know if I'd consider myself depressed. I'm not happy, but not particularly depressed either. For the longest time, I'd say I haven't really cared if I lived or died, but was just rather apathetic about my life; I'm not gonna jump in front of a bus, but I don't know how hard I'd fight to stay alive in a life or death situation. I don't think there are any clinical psych issues - I do feel emotion, and get happy/sad about things, but as far as the grand scheme of things / meaning of life, I'm just "meh". I guess it's less of a "I can't handle it anymore" situation, but more of a "why bother?" situation, and I'm kinda drawing a blank on an answer. I haven't contacted a hotline or the like, as it's said doing so is often an emotional call for help, but I don't think I'm really asking for help here - rather just airing it out there. I'm a bit socially awkward, and related to that, I don't have a wife, gf, nor kids to be responsible for; nobody is depending on me. I had a good job, looked ok/good (I think, though a bit of low self esteem in that department), nice car, etc - stuff movies/society suggest you need to get a gf, but still never had long term relationship. Never even been on a real date - a few lunches here and there, and I was seeing a girl while in college, but
it was just a physical thing and we never went on a "real" date. Now that I'm a bit older, a bit heavier (not clinically obese), I'm sort of starting to think it's a bit too late in that area - I don't know that I'm much of a catch anymore, plus the pool of good women has significantly decreased with most of the reasonable age bracket being already married, overly complicated, or just plain crazy (kidding on that last point). If I ended up settling on someone just to not be alone, it wouldn't really be fair to her, nor myself. My family's not that close - sure they'd be hurt if I was gone, but they'll get over it. My group of friends has always been rather small, but again, we're not that close. I'm just not really sure what reason there is for me to live, aside from taking up space and using up our planet's resources - which slightly nudges the needle from being right between wanting to live and wanting to die, towards wanting to die. I could go back to work, buy a nice house with giant tv and whatever other stuff people say you need to be happy, but to what end? In thinking about a way to leave, I do want to minimize any negative effects on others (whether it be emotional/physical/convenience/etc) as well as myself, and I've finally thought of a way to do so. I won't go in to any detail, but as far as I can see, it wouldn't definitively look like suicide, which would hopefully lessen any loss felt by others.

Is anyone else interested in the psychosocial appeal of Diablo? **topic for discussion:** why people find the narrative structure and happenings of the Diablo world appealing and compelling. *not* why experience points and achievements and lasers are cool. Here's my shot at Diablo Theory: As a result of the modern condition (which I characterize as being relatively anonymous, transient, and filled with intellectual/emotional ennui), we have a yearning to understand the history of our world. We feel, on a collective scale, sort of displaced, as our history is treated as a fixed entity tracing just towards the future. However, we know on some basic level that there has been much more to the world than what we experience in the modern world. In many ways I think this subliminal group mindset explains why we love Jurassic Park, Mummies, etc. But I think it's especially applicable to Diablo for two reasons. A: The dualistic nature of the game provides an excellent narrative for the history of our world. In seeing the world as containing explicitly good and evil elements (who are surprisingly human and emotional, but that is a [though very interesting] digression), we can categorize the way our world (not just Diablo) has come to be. Reason B really refers more to my first paragraph: Diablo allows reinterpretation of what little history we know. Such events in history as cannibalism, tribalism, egypt, mummies, tombs, kings, slaves, etc etc etc, all these very real events are recast into a dualistic mindset about what "really happened" in the history of the world. Magic is alive and animating all those countless people before us. It gives a moral and emotional framework for understanding who and what we are. This is just some random thoughts I've had while pondering the release of D3, I'm curious if anyone has additions or retractions :) **TL;DR: pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew**

I've finally gotten around to initiating plans forcasual sex with a friend I've lusted over for a few months. He's 6' 2" around 300 lbs, and I'm 5' 7" and 130 lbs. He asked if I was into anything in particular, and I replied "anything pleasurable" and asked him the same question, to which he responded "eating girls out, feet, and ass." tl;dr hate my own feet, and don't know how to give a rimjob.

Long time lurker, first time poster here. I'm trying to answer a (Malaysian) radio contest question which snowballed to RM3300 (roughly 1100 USD). Since I'm in college I figured I could use the money for my college tuition but I need help figuring out the daily habit of 60% of people. I've googled for some time now to no avail. I see miracles happen all the time on Reddit so now, I need your help to win this Reddit. Some of the wrong answers: * Brushing teeth * Drink a glass of water in the morning * Stretch in the morning * Read the morning papers * Snoring * Have coffee * Clean their bowels * Singing in the bathroom * Stare at each other * Bite straw or toothpick * Walk their dog * Talk in their sleep * Snack in front of the TV * Exercise * Eat supper * Use an alarm clock in the morning * Singing in the shower * Eat rice * Drink milk * Wake up early * Read a book * Wash their hair * Greet strangers * Taking an afternoon nap * Listen to the radio * Look at their alarm clock * Send their children to school * Skip breakfast * Tell a lie * Smoke * Saving money and counting them * Drinking coffee (repeated often) * Texting * Waking up and sleeping back again * Taking afternoon nap (again repeated) * Shake legs * Drive to work * Stuck in traffic jam * Hook up to the internet * Pick nose in traffic jam * Waste time * Buzzing/Pinging friends * Yawn * Sneeze in the morning * Wash hands before eating * Go back to sleep * Have champagne with meals * Being stingy * Tidy up the room * Read newspaper (repeated) * Gossiping * Littering * Biting finger nails * Being late for an occasion * Eating continuously * Singing in the shower (repeated) * Bathing * Brush teeth (another often repeated answer) * Smoking (again repeated) * Fold their blanket * Pick their nose (repeated) * Watch TV * Checking themselves in the mirror * Speak from 13 main languages in the world * Have coffee for breakfast * Opening the refrigerator door * Go to school * Spitting * Make their bed when they wake up * Feeding * Turning off the alarm clock * Squeeze toothpaste from the middle of the tube * Drinking 8 glasses of water per day * Do not take the bus in the morning * Shave everyday * Comb their hair in the morning * Working * Sleep early before midnight * Yawning * Logging in to facebook * Take a bath every single morning * Use a cellphone * Counting money * Pray * Whistling * Cutdown on sugar intake * Taking off shoes at home * Taking the same route to work * Drinking coffee while driving * Being absent minded and forgetful * Gossiping My guess is walking but I trust the Reddit hivemind more than myself to win this. Thoughts Reddit? (Credits to chillsplay.blogspot for the wrong answers list) **TL;DR want to win cash prize, need answer for radio contest question**

Long time lurker, first time poster here. I'm trying to answer a (Malaysian) radio contest question which snowballed to RM3300 (roughly 1100 USD). Since I'm in college I figured I could use the money for my college tuition but I need help figuring out the daily habit of 60% of people. I've googled for some time now to no avail. I see miracles happen all the time on Reddit so now, I need your help to win this Reddit. Some of the wrong answers: * Brushing teeth * Drink a glass of water in the morning * Stretch in the morning * Read the morning papers * Snoring * Have coffee * Clean their bowels * Singing in the bathroom * Stare at each other * Bite straw or toothpick * Walk their dog * Talk in their sleep * Snack in front of the TV * Exercise * Eat supper * Use an alarm clock in the morning * Singing in the shower * Eat rice * Drink milk * Wake up early * Read a book * Wash their hair * Greet strangers * Taking an afternoon nap * Listen to the radio * Look at their alarm clock * Send their children to school * Skip breakfast * Tell a lie * Smoke * Saving money and counting them * Drinking coffee (repeated often) * Texting * Waking up and sleeping back again * Taking afternoon nap (again repeated) * Shake legs * Drive to work * Stuck in traffic jam * Hook up to the internet * Pick nose in traffic jam * Waste time * Buzzing/Pinging friends * Yawn * Sneeze in the morning * Wash hands before eating * Go back to sleep * Have champagne with meals * Being stingy * Tidy up the room * Read newspaper (repeated) * Gossiping * Littering * Biting finger nails * Being late for an occasion * Eating continuously * Singing in the shower (repeated) * Bathing * Brush teeth (another often repeated answer) * Smoking (again repeated) * Fold their blanket * Pick their nose (repeated) * Watch TV * Checking themselves in the mirror * Speak from 13 main languages in the world * Have coffee for breakfast * Opening the refrigerator door * Go to school * Spitting * Make their bed when they wake up * Feeding * Turning off the alarm clock * Squeeze toothpaste from the middle of the tube * Drinking 8 glasses of water per day * Do not take the bus in the morning * Shave everyday * Comb their hair in the morning * Working * Sleep early before midnight * Yawning * Logging in to facebook * Take a bath every single morning * Use a cellphone * Counting money * Pray * Whistling * Cutdown on sugar intake * Taking off shoes at home * Taking the same route to work * Drinking coffee while driving * Being absent minded and forgetful * Gossiping My guess is walking but I trust the Reddit hivemind more than myself to win this.

My xbox hasn't been in the best of health recently, with it failing to read games from time to time, I just thought it was getting old and would just have momentary lapses. That was til tonight, where during a game of FIFA, the game became unreadable. I thought nothing of it, the xbox had done it before and it was just a case of resetting and getting back on with things. Not this time. My console now refuses to read any disc whatsoever, I've done everything on the support site and still nothing. All this after drooling over the anticipation of getting my hands on Battlefield 3 this weekend (UK redditor here). So now my pre-ordered copy will come through my door and I'll have nothing to play it on. I would send it for repairs, but that's £62 for nearly a months wait. I might just try and find a cheap pre-owned console and see if that will tide me over til I can afford one of the newer xboxs. Overall though, :( tl;dr - my xbox has died only a few days before launch (UK redditor)

I found this sub-reddit by clicking 'random' about 14 times... anyhoo.. i didn't start watching 'sunny' until it hit the networks (recently) as I do not have cable. Point: not a die-hard fan (yet) i live in the general proximity of the great city of brotherly love. my cousin (who lives on the other side of the state) comes for a visit. He want's to go visit Paddy's (being a die-hard fan). so i take him into Old City, and after 2 hours of walking around (Old City is not large), we finally track this place down. Why so hard to find? a) the place is only about 15 feet wide- about enough room for the bar, a row of stools, and a walking path behind b) 90% of the time, their sign is covered by a giant beer banner. it's a local dive bar and they do not like tourists this place is such a dive bar that there are ashtrays on the bar and the paint is peeling off the ceiling 3 layers deep. i love dive bars, so i loved the shit out of the place. cuz-o was a little disappointed though (i think he was expecting 'Cheers'). he did leave with an official 'paddy's' hoodie, though tl,dr: up yours. i took the time to write it... you can spend 5 minutes reading it. it is fairly pointless and random, however that is all... carry on
