    And you’re a pathetic bitch for getting worked up over what should not need /sarcasm marked out there.

    He could have just made half to two thirds of the universe sterile... but yeah, not particularly exciting...

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    My thoughts exactly - damn let’s just have them start off at the opponents 25 yard line - more scoring = more exciting!

    I have good days and bad days - getting a lot of lag spikes and stuttering since the servers got the influx of mobile players. I suck at building compared to some of these guys though, so if I’m not playing duos/squads with my son and his friends I’ll pick my battles - some of these guys can...

    Yeah the parents are the issue 99% of the time. I’ve coached recreational soccer where you have both extremes - the helicopter parents worried about juniors delicate psyche and the parents of the next Ronaldo wondering why these other kids are out there at all. One year the only other parent...

    Got a slickdeals notification these were showing up in stock at Walmart with free shipping - I have several gift cards people gave me I never used, so after refreshing my browser multiple times, getting it in my cart only to have it out of stock when I hit place order, etc...

    Dell has the PSVR Doom bundle (headset, camera and game) for $199 plus a $25 Dell gift card - seems like a damn good deal.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    So after a patch or sometimes just randomly I get defaulted to Asian servers - I usually figure this out because 1) lobby is full of people speaking ranglish 2) I’ll get 3 - 4 kills in a round, which is unheard of for me.

    Teaching Sports

    I’ve coached football and soccer at the youth level for years and enjoyed it, but I’ve decided I’ve gotten too old to deal with the parents. Number one priority is setting expectations first, and reinforcing expectations regularly. Have a “contract” of what they should expect from you and...

    I don’t think anyone is really advocating homeschooling here, but here locally there are organizations that have relatively large groups (100+ kids) that meet up 3+ days/week for physical ed/recess activities, do field trips regularly, etc. There are even a few that field athletic teams. So...

    Beautiful! I remember being surprised at how much fun they were at that age - thought the early years would be more tedious than fun. My daughter turned 1 a few years ago. Now she’s 20.

    Homeschooling is a tough call but I can certainly understand why you would decide to do it under the circumstances. Biggest thing is the socialization challenges - plenty of homeschool associations here but yeah vast majority are faith-based and likely using Ken Hamm bullshit curriculum...

    Got the Dell Advantage rewards from buying the desktop and monitor during the President’s Day sale; grabbed a Logitech G502 Spectrum mouse and the Corsair K70 LUX mechanical keyboard (Cherry MX Red), basically just had to pay the taxes.

    I hit 16 on crocs and moved over to SK/Lake Rathe for a bit, would head to Unrest/Guk but not sure I want to duo while playing an enchanter in a pick up when the puller is chain pulling 5 - 6 mobs at a time.

    Yeah I grabbed the Switch - for $224 with free shipping I figured if I didn’t like it I could sell it for what I paid for it, or donate it to the nearest children’s hospital.

    Boxing

    Yeah, he’s a brawler - but he could be a damn good boxer if he didn’t rely solely on his reach and power. Don’t know how the guy in that link criticized Wilder’s power before the match - even if it’s ugly his left hand jab/snap hook has proven to be effective and his straight right is...

    Boxing

    Watching the fight, I was impressed by the way Ortiz moved and his technical approach - definitely a smart boxer and for his size/age in damn good shape. I thought Wilder was going down in the seventh - Wilder said after the fight he was off balance but never hurt. Wilder needs to show more...

    I only turn mine on because they don’t have a Motorstorm on the PS4, and sometimes I just need to play it with the volume up.

    It was hard to pass on the prebuilt with GPUs where they are - if the prices ever become reasonable again I’ll probably pass it down to my son and build - otherwise it should last a while.

    So, FedEx tracking shows desktop has delivered but it’s signed for by someone that does not work here. I call Dell, get Dopinder on the line and he says “it’s delivered, signed for by so and so (who doesn’t fucking work here).” I explain that it isn’t here and no one by that name works here...
