    I love dandadan, however I feel very uncomfortable trying to explain the plot to anyone irl. The show is definitely the best kind of Japanese pure insanity.

    I mean, from a comedically bad perspective, acolyte takes the cake. Boba is a close second. Fat warrior with the slow motion bike diversity squad was just all around embaressing, and I'd say obi was as bad as those two. But if I were to look at it from a critical stance of someone not invested...

    I mean, it is fair to say they were trying something new with the acolyte. I just wish they didn't have aggressively retarded people coming up with new ideas.

    Been crushing HEB food for about a week. Marinated meats were all pretty good quality and had nice flavors for reasonable prices. The CC icecream was good I think. I'm not an ice cream man, so I gave it to a relative after one spoon. She told me it was amazing- on par with winco ice cream...

    Yea, not much you're going to be able to do about online cheaters in chess. It's just a fact of life that a lot of people will cheat, and a lot of time you'll think people not cheating are cheating. If you start to worry about it you'll just ruin your day. If jim bob the 1600 ranked person...

    What do you mean? Mike has literally always said he likes star trek more than star wars. Haven't watched the video, but I assume he shits on star wars... I mean its pretty much shooting fish in a barrel. Star wars has been mediocre to ass for 40 years other than andor and some episodes of mando.

    Your ignorance is why you call a man that chopped off his wiener she, and your hatred of norms is what makes you think chopping your wiener off is something that should be celebrated. Maybe you shouldn't be the evil fuckwit.

    One of the major problems with amazon is there's shitloads of fake products. You gotta be pretty careful about making sure the seller is reputable if it doesn't come directly from the producer, or you will definitely get some BS. I thought about driving down to the asian market, but 60$ is right...

    I love the idea of mandolins, but my last one was nightmare fuel so I hated using it. Bought beriner's best one and its soooo much better than the random POS i had in the past. Potato pave took only a few minutes to assemble, and I had potato slices so thin I could see through them.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    The thing I remember most about third person is id do it on long runs, and that any time you went into the water you’d have to use the stupid page up and down keys to change which way your character was looking.

    third person was so weird in eq at first. I used to pop to it to target stuff and other reasons, but the vast majority of my play was first person… at least until they added that mouse wheel stuff. I thought it was earlier than GoD

    I can’t say that I fully understand the ace mentality, but it’s fairly common with gen z, and this is probably a fair assessment. It’s definitely a social signal they send to each other, and more than something most of them truly believe. That said, the mental illness levels have been higher...

    Cancer: a Philosophical Question

    I've seen cancer treatments work very well, and I've seen them go horribly wrong.

He died drunk...

    Was walking by mc'donalds and saw smores mc flurry. It tastes like their typical soft serve mixed with chocolate lucky charms. A+. I liked it way more than my brain said should be possible, the only thing that held it back from S tier. I finished it off a 4$ mc double to ruin the experience.

    REITs always looked like really bad ideas for investment to me. Investing in real estate you can't see and care for yourself just feels like setting yourself up to get scammed.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Roth IRA has no tax on withdrawal if you follow the rules. It's a very powerful tool for regular investors and the super wealthy. Shocked you don't know about it if you are into wealth management. Peter thiel in particular made a comical exploit of the rules to evade around a billion in taxes.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Roth IRAs have no RMD if you are the original owner and are alive. For your TSP, if you are worried about RMDs or want some money early, I'd consider SEPPing it. That lets you start taking money at any age, and you wont have RMDs. You can't change it until 60 though, so best be sure you are...

    I've got so much in my 401k I'd probably eat all the way up to 12% bracket +standard for a couple years. I'd have to sit and do the math on various scenarios before committing. Sure I'd pay 5000$ in taxes, but long term the benefits are worth it IMO. Rolling over the standard is a no brainer...

    You can roll 401k into a roth IRA. When I retire early, my plan is to live off my normal investments, and roll about 40k a year from my 401k->roth IRA. It's a tax mitigation strategy that is very worthwhile if you have years where you are making very little on paper. Roth IRA is 10000% worth...

    I started EQ in high school, got kicked out at 18 and went to playing EQ on a potato in a 400$ apartment in the ghetto. I figured if I was gonna be playing eq so much, I might as well make money doing it, so I sold a lot of plat. I made almost as much money from that as my 7$ an hour job.
