You know that subgenre of rom-com where a particularly unassuming nice guy high school or college dude gets unintentionally sucked into some crazy sci-fi shit and attracts a harem? We need a better name for that. | Examples include, but are not limited to, Sekerei, Ah! My Goddess, The Melancholy of Haruhi Susumia, Demon King Daimo, and Shuffle!
I know they're usually classified as rom-com, but they're numerous and disinct enough in my view to have their own name. So, any ideas? Or do they already have a name? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Would you like it if you could set your subreddit priorities? | For example, /r/gaming threads seem to overwhelm my front page yet I'd rather have /r/science take front page priority. Does this seem easy to implement?
It'd be great when you added a sub to able to change the weight of it. For instance, /r/science submissions will have more weight per vote than /r/gaming submissions.
It also might be great to have pre-set subs with pre-set weights, perhaps. Say you're a gamer, you can click a preset to subscribe to gaming related subs and/or also raise the weight of those subs.

Redditors who have had someone they cared about commit suicide, would you prefer they have left a note or not? | I'm just wanting to hear all of your opinions. Imagine someone you cared about committed suicide. Do you think it would be better to have a note left or nothing?

Help - I want to become a better programmer and software engineer in general [Xpost from AskEngineers] | Hey guys.
A little background:
I've been on college for 2 years now doing computer engineer (We had a little of mathematics and physics, programming, software engineering, DB, among others). My average isn't very good but I didn't left any subject(?) behind. I really enjoy programming and doing big projects but I don't feel prepared to enter the job-market.
So reddit, how can I become a better software engineer? Also, is there any projects that I can participate/do this summer to help me improve?
(Sorry if I'm using XPOST wrong. I just wanted the maximum help I could get =/) | reddit_title_body | 25 |
I turn 18 today. 12/12/12 ~ Thank you Riot Games&r/lol | Hello /r/leagueoflegends. Today is a day that won't repeat itself for a long time. Today I will celebrate my 18th birthday with you my lovely redditors. I've always loved League of Legends, from my first game to my last minion. This game... is like no other game I've felt for. Solo queue, dominion players and the old TT... I've always loved you.
Dear, /r/leagueoflegends; You are my home. You always helped me when no one wanted to. You are my family. I love you. <3
As this day is a good lookin' day, I'm happy to share with you the joys of eighteen years of my life helping and smiling at people.
Last but not least, I would like to give a true love message to the guy who I always hated, dear teemo... fuck you!
Thank you and mind me if I mistaken any word or sentence, english is not my native language.
**TL;DR**; Today is 12/12/12 and it's my birthday, and I felt the love to share it with /r/leagueoflegends. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
I just drove two hours to take a test for an online course that is apparently unavailable. Reddit, when has your school screwed you over? | So I'm taking an online class this summer, fitting it in around an incredibly important internship (for me). Although all homework and labs are mobile, tests need to be taken on location. I took half a day off to come take my second exam for the course. Two hours later, come to find out that for whatever reason the exam isn't showing up in the system and that it expired yesterday despite syllabi and e-mails all saying the contrary. So now I have to wait on my professor to contact the testing center to let me take the damn exam. I'll, more than likely, have to come back tomorrow. I'm so looking forward to explaining this to my boss.
This is the same professor who kicked me out of his class when I accidentally signed up for the wrong homework service when he provided the wrong url in the syllabus. Those were a great few days, fighting my way back in the class.
My question to ya'll...when has your high school/college inexplicably screwed you over? | reddit_title_body | 25 |

[Request for pix] Looking for bored people for realism drawings | Here's a quick imgur album of what I've done.
I've gotten much better in the past year but I'm getting pretty bored. While realism seems to be my style, I'm tired of drawing faces. Bodies are ok but they lack something. In the past, my drawing style was more... creepy/odd/off the wall
What I'd like of you: Male or Female is fine. I'd like full body pictures of high resolution. Go derranged/creepy. Something still human and believable that will fit my realism style. Portraits are lame!
Think Heath Ledger's joker -
Edit: also avoid flash if at all possible. It kills depth in the image and transfers to my kind of drawings very poorly. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Jeff Loomis and the Contortionist cancel Lansing, MI show due to local shitbag metal band. Help us Shreddit, details inside. | So this band, King810, ended up cancelling the Loomis show due to their fucking stupid shenanigans. I'm talking baseball bats, gang fights, and a fire. My buddy told me, and I quote,"no Contortionist, no Jeff Loomis, THAnk you KING *my roomate warren is in the hospital because of a random suckerpunch or two from a douschbag King follower, there are too many details to explain, started with a mosh pit and a sucker punch, then a group fight, then a baseball bat being swung at innocent people, and chairs getting thrown at by standers, then all of the promoters and the owners of the moon tryin to break it up and getting disrespected and threatened, even beaten upon after allowing them to play at their venue! ending with a parkinglot full of cops and a hateful uprising of complete idiots who dont have any respect or morals to deserve to even be in a band.. it was horrible after all the potential of this venue had tonight a certain group of morons and tough guys had to ruin it for everybody.. you had to be there to see it for yourself, cannot believe people these days."

I'm probably not your idea of a typical redditor, my main interests are action sports like BMX and Motocross and not video games although I do play occasionally.

Hey, r/Zelda what are your thoughts on Skyward Sword Hero Mode? | I recently finished playing Skyward Sword on Hero Mode. I was a fan of Skyward Sword to begin with (I don't really have a absolute favorite Zelda game, but it's in my top 3) and I think playing it in Hero Mode made it even better. The doubled damage and no hearts, combined with the Wii motion controls made battles way more interesting and realistic. I had to be extremely conscious of each hit I took and my fine tune battle tactics. I used items differently to always take the least amount of damage possible. Hero mode forced me to play to the best of my ability. I felt like I was Link, although I know I'm not nearly as badass... one can hope... I did have a really tough time getting the Hylian Shield though, boss battles are hard enough on their own in Hero Mode and I had to try so many times that I eventually mastered every aspect of each battle, beating most of them without taking any damage at all. I probably tried for around 8 hours altogether.
I'm not saying everyone should enjoy Hero Mode as much as I did, but I was wondering how everyone felt about it.
Also, I just made a reddit recently and I beat Hero mode about 4 months ago. I wish I could've been more descriptive as to which enemies I enjoyed fighting most. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Discussion of Freelancers: Their Armour Abilities and AI | This is my first time posting and am kinda new to this subreddit so I'm sorry if it has been discussed before.
So seeing as seasons 9 and 10 have progressed, I wanted to get the opinions of others so I can fully understand an keep track of AI and armour abilities as some may be unaccounted for.
So as I see it the current armour abilities known are:
* Bubble Shield (North)
* Voice Changer (South)
* Invisibility (Texas)
* Colour Change (Carolina)
* Speed Boost (Carolina)
* Healing (York)
* Time Distortion (Wyoming)
* Hologram Distortion (C.T.)
And the listed AI:
* Alpha
* Gamma (deceit)
* Omega (anger)
* Delta (logic)
* Theta (empathy)
* Sigma (creativity)
* Can I include Tex?/Alison
* Epsilon (Memory)
So I wanted to know:
**Does anyone else consider the Voice Changer/Copier as an armour ability**? I know South does not have an AI and as seen in episode 2 of season 9 she can use it without one which makes me think it isn't.
In episode 8 of reconstruction Maine adds Delta to his collection. In possession is one unaccounted AI, I can see: Tex, Sigma, Theta, Delta, I don't know which ones are Omega, Gamma and Tex. **Could anyone suggest what the last one is?**
**How does Maine have the colour change ability when it is in Carolina's armour and she is still alive?** As seen in reconstruction he changes to red and blue at various scenes to blend in and confuse. But in episode 3 of season 9 Carolina sneaks in, in black armour and changes to greenish blue-seafoam-green-turquoise whatever it is armour.
**Does anyone know what unique armour abilities Washington and Maine have?** The only one I can suggest for Maine is an Overshield, as at the end of Revelation when Sarge shotguns him to the face a few times, he remains undamaged.
**Are the AI; Delta, Alpha, Omega etc, destroyed owning to the EMP?**
This is going to be unanswerable but, **Do you think the Blue freelancer holds any great meaning?**
**What colour IS Carolina?**
**Does Maine's body/armour now possess the healing unit from York, didn't Washington take it? Do you think the Meta is still alive?**
**Do you believe a lot more of this will be covered this season/coming season?**
Thank you in advanced :D I really appreciate it!

Should champions lose non title matches on RAW/SMACKDOWN | It seems the only time championship holders lose a match on Raw or Smackdown is because of some sort of DQ. No one ever seems to be able to defeat them straight up during regular weekly programming. I understand that they are the champions so they have to appear to be the best of the best and win night in and night out but in other sports it doesn't matter how good or bad your record is during the regular season, it just matters how you perform at the Superbowl/World Series/Stanley Cup. I find little excitement watching champions wrestle on Raw and Smackdown because I know they going to win barring some sort of DQ (and I don't find DQ's exciting either, just a cheap way to end a match) Allowing OCCASIONAL non title loses would add a level of excitement and anticipation that I find lacking in the WWE. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Need to make a website that allows users to upload pictures which are rated by others, the highest rated ones appear on the front pag. | Need to make a website that allows users to upload pictures which are rated by others, the highest rated ones appear on the front page, and also wouldn't mind if the user had a profile with a unique login and password (maybe even with a forum they can use).

Won a gift certificate for a hair salon, but I have no clue what I want. | As the title says, I recently won a gift certificate with a hair salon but I have no idea of what I want them to do. I have to use the certificate before it expires, and my appointment is tomorrow. I haven't been to a hairdresser since April, and that was my first time in two years. I have fairly long, thick hair and I usually don't do much with it. I enjoy the length, but I am also ready for a change if shorter hair would suit me. I have kind of a round face, which I'm trying not to draw too much attention to. I should perhaps that I am a Uni student, which means time to do my hair in the morning is usually nearly non-existent due to late night essay-writing and lab reports.
The certificate includes a wash, style cut and blow wave.

This is how I look when I get someone to curl it for me
This is how I normally look

Guide to "Getting a Longboard" for newbys. | <TL-DR>: Any, but try to get good components. Skate.
Any longboard should be fine, just pick a deck from the style you like. You should try to get good components though: It will save you money in the long run, as you can replace the deck & not have to buy new components. If this is to long for you: Go to Churchillmfg.com and get a complete. Upgrade the trucks if you can afford it. </TL-DR>
The longboard is made of the following components: Deck (a Board), Trucks (With bushings), Bearings, and wheels. The hive mind here likes the following for the following reasons.
1) Helmet (<$25): Very important when you are starting. Also good to have if you go at a faster pace than walking when you have learned a a shitload. Get a skateboard helmet if you can, but a bike helmet will do. Replace it if you hit it moderately hard. Replace it if it's a bike helmet & get a skateboard helmet.
2) Deck: Pick one you like. Hivemind will tell you to go to Churchillmfg.com. Also check Muirskate.com as they are well priced; have free shipping; dont' carry any complete crap. (That I know of.) (55+) This can be quite large: See The Board Guide on the right for a long detailed description. (or see below in this thread).
3) Trucks. You can get two types, but most longboarders like Reverse Kingpin Trucks. Randall & Paris are preferred. Probably 180mm (~9" axle), but it should match the width of your board. Randall & Paris are preferred because the bushings are easy to replaced. (Caliber and Bear are the next two, some say bear is hard to get bushings for.) (about $50 for a set) Churchill RKP are supposedly not bad ($25) but you will probably have to get new bushings. There is a link in the sidebar. More exist & some people yell if they are not included.
4) Bearings: "Bones" brand are the most liked. Any reasonable ones should be fine. ($15) Get low grade ones if you need to go slow. (Used from someone at the skatepark?) Might as well get decent ones to start.
5) Wheels: ($20-50) are a religious war. You get like two options: Cruiser (75-79a durometer rating) wheels are soft and good for long distance commuting, but are hard to slide.. Downhill/Slider (80-87a durometer) are popular. Personally, I commute & feel that a large size is better for that. (I own 78a, 84a; 95a in various sizes.)
**A Complete from Churchill will run about $120 with Randall Trucks.** It may have shortcomings, but will be enough to get you started. (Or set a floor price for used decks.) You can also look at "Kerse's Board Selection Guide" in the sidebar. (Way more in depth than this, if you scroll down, and he will also recommend specific boards)
Now you need to learn 1) How to go; 2) How to stop. Start by learning how to "foot brake"; then how to push. Ride your board. It's a transportation device, not a fashion accessory. (Yes, you will build leg muscles fast (to the point you get a bit sore) as you learn to push.) See lBlAlRlClOlDl3l's Beginner Guide in the sidebar. Also Youtube. Etc...
Good Luck & have fun.

Please don't laugh at me or give silly answers but my cat is stuck in a tree. | I've read like 30 articles on cats in trees and most say to wait it out but I am kind of losing my shit here. He is about 50 feet up. He is a mostly indoor cat (fat and pampered) and is crying. He's been up there for almost 12 hours. I will reward you cat loving redditors with so many pictures it's not funny if you can help me.
Edit: I REALLY appreciate the answers that are thinking outside of the box.
Happy Ending Edit!!!!!!!!! Someone is coming to get him down in the morning!!! Thanks for all your suggestions!
More Editing(12/19): Turns out the cat is 80feet up and the tree service guy couldn't get him down. :( And now my choices are pay someone to climb the tree with money I don't have or wait for him to get too weak to stay up there and fall. If anyone has stories about their cat surviving a massive fall I could use the hope.
Edit(12/20): We got tarps and strung them from the trees surround the tree. Our hope is that if/when he falls/jumps he'll land on the tarps and the give will give him a better shot.
EDIT!!!! SUPER EDIT!!! HE IS DOWN SAFELY! We're not sure if he jumped or fell or climbed but he just walked in the door like "Where's my diner bitches." Thank you everyone for your suggestions and for anyone who was thinking of Bruce fondly and hoping he came down safely. Also, to the people who said leave him alone, you were right, I was wrong! :):):):):):):) | reddit_title_body | 25 |

Feels like my friend keeps asking me too much without giving anything in return | Hey reddit,
I used to give rides all the time to my friend when she didn't have a car. Now that she has a car she still asks me for rides and I am kind of annoyed that she has not once offered me a ride. I would appreciate the gesture, and since I have been used hardcore by other friends in the past, I'm refusing to constantly give rides. She does have to work much more than I do and lives on her own. However, I too have limited funds and would appreciate a two way relationship of giving and taking as opposed to me always giving everything that I have-- time, resources, etc.
Am I being too unreasonable by saying "no" more often when she asks me to drive us places? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
I have mild aches, am I weird? | When I try to sit still, go to sleep etc, I notice weird aches.
I want to roll my wrists, its like a desire to stretch certain muscles sort of ache. The ache doesn't go away, so I keep rolling them slowly.
I want to jiggle my feet. Flex my toes, chew my cheeks, rub the top of my buttock muscles, and the weiredest one - tug my scrotum.
I have a feeling this is to do with diet. The last time I felt these aches, I ate a banana and they went away, but it could have been a coincidence.
Is there a mal-nutrition that can cause these symptoms? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
DIY Electric Uke Questions | Hello all,
I've been subscribed for a while, but never posted. I have two ukes, a soprano and a concert, but I'm looking to start a project of an electric uke. I've wanted one for a while, but I'm not a huge fan of the ones out there, and I'd love to do my own design for the body.
From the little research I've done, I'm sure I'll have to use metal strings, and and have found pickups for those, but suggestions for lower cost, but good pickups would be awesome. My main question to you, /r/uke, is a question of where to get reliable parts that I can pair up with my body. I'd like to get a pre-made neck, just to make it easier, with or without tuning pegs would be fine. Also, I'd be looking for a bridge.
The non-part related questions being dimensions between neck and bridge for the right sound, and not really a whole lot else.
Ah! I'm looking to build a concert as I tend to favor my concert now, as most of the chords are easier for my fingers. Soprano is okay, just a tad small at times.
Thank you for taking the time to read, and I look forward to hearing. If I can get this done with relative success, I might even start making and selling a few!
TLDR; I want to make an electric uke, but am looking for where to buy the complicated bits. | reddit_title_body | 25 |

I have TRO on her ass, but she went into the police station, made up some bull, and she has one on me too. She had me escorted out of a club this past weekend because she "didn't feel safe." It was a 2-story club and I didn't go anywhere NEAR her!
But regardless, I have her phone number, her phone's Email address, and she writes in a daily blog where she proves how psychotic she is and people ask her questions.
What can I do for payback? It must be untraceable and remain anonymous. And not murder, as appealing as that is. Don't let me down Reddit. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Sunbear Stare - 11/8 8PM EST and 11/11 7PM EST (need tank and dps sub) | Sunbear Stare Assemble
So this week we will be missing Eddard and Clopsy. We can possibly have Riggs tank depending on how he feels about it. Otherwise we will need a tank and DPS.
Just throwing this out there, but unless we get a run of HM EC on Monday or earlier in the week to gear some people up we may need to run that on Thursday or face devastation this week on HM TfB. I dont think that we have that many subs ready to do HM TfB with their current gear sets.
Anyways if you can sub post below and also a general feel for your gear. | reddit_title_body | 25 |

Meeting with Senator Jim Webb (VA) staff member in DC on the 10th regarding PROTECT IP | I have a meeting with a staff member of Senator Webb on Tuesday the 10th at 2pm. This is regarding the PROTECT IP act which is the Senate version of SOPA. It is in Washington DC at the Russell Senate Building Suite 248. On Monday I will call the office with the number of people attending so that would be a good time to decide by. The more people that come the better. If you have input of any kind discussion has started here. Also if you are interested in attending you can contact me at the email address [email protected] | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Chemistry/physics: How do chiral molecules affect the polarisation of light? And why do non-chiral molecules NOT affect it? | So I've learned that chiral molecules change the polarisation of light passing through.
What is this weird property of chiral molecules that changes the polarisation of light? How come R and S forms change the polarisation by equal amounts, but in opposite directions?
But here's the real question that stumped my chemistry teacher when I asked him: Why don't non-chiral molecules change the polarisation of light passing through? It seems weird to me the a chiral carbon centre is the deciding factor of a molecule affecting light polarisation. My teacher literally spent the rest of the period pondering the issue while the class was assigned to deal with small tasks.

What are the best and worst streets and neighborhoods for a young woman to move into in San Francisco? | I posted a similar question mostly concerning Oakland in /r/BayArea yesterday, and I got a lot of great responses!
I am moving to the bay area from Portland. I have a lot of friends that have been moving there and every time I visit I am crazy about it! Most of my friends live in the Mission, but I am interested to hear Reddit's take on the best (and least expensive) neighborhoods as well as the parts I need to avoid.
A little about me, I'm a smallish 24 year old woman, I usually work as a bartender, and I do some freelance web stuff on the side. In Portland (where I have been living for four years) I like helping out at food not bombs, riding my bike and playing/listening to music. I'm fairly street smart and I think I have a good grasp on when I shouldn't be somewhere. However, walking around SF, I have noticed that sometimes good neighborhoods end in sketchy streets if you're not careful.
Where should I be looking on Craigslist once I get here? I haven't yet decided whether I will be living in SF or Oakland, it mostly depends on where I get a job. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you! | reddit_title_body | 25 |

Does your broadcaster omit showing replays of referee decisions (like offsides or some fouls) at the euros as well? | I watch the games mostly on Swiss television. Besides the horrible commentary, they don't show replays of referee decisions. Most likely to avoid any discussion about the his performance.

Writing a paper about Bronies, would like input from the masses. | I have an assignment in my English class to write a paper about a discourse community that I am a part of. Three guesses as to what I chose.
Part of this assignment involves observing the community I will be writing about, and discussing it with other members of the community. So, if you all could spare just a couple minutes, it would be great if I could get some quotes and the like from some of you to use in my paper. Many of these will be rather cliche, albeit necessary considering the paper has to introduce the community and why it is one.
Let's get started then.
* In 20 words or less, describe the brony fandom.
* What initially drew you into the show/fandom? (try to keep this down to a few sentences)
* What do like best about the show?
* How do you personally participate in the community?
* What is your favorite characteristic or aspect of the fandom?
* How do you feel about the stereotypes or criticism the fandom has got or may get? (e.g. "it's a show for little girls" "only gay men like ponies" etc)
* May I quote any of your answers in my paper?
----
You don't have to answer all of the questions if you don't want, but any and all answers are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
**Edit:** Oh man, so many awesome answers already! Thanks for them all so far! I'll try to use as many as I can in my paper. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Question about Lens diameter and f-Stop | My understanding is that the f-stop is a ratio of focal length/Diameter of the **entrance pupil**. How is it then that this f1.4 lens](#!product-specs) has a 49mm front filter yet [this f1.4 lens has a filter diameter of 77mm yet both are still f1.4? What don't I understand here?

[TOMT] Online game where you change the color of hexagons | It was a game online that I cannot remember the name of. You had a large grid of hexagons touching that were all different colors. You choose one color (ex: blue) then click another hexagon of a different color (ex: red) then I think all the hexagons that are touching the red one turns blue. I can't think of the exact gameplay but that was the gist of it.

Free short-term rental (1 month) in exchange for 4hr/day work as personal assistant, start ASAP | I am a 30-yr old woman with a cat and an extra room in my home in Clairemont, and I have been bogged down with work since starting my own company. I would like to offer a room for the next month in exchange for a personal assistant who will do some random stuff for me for 4 hours or so a day. I am open to the arrangement being longer term if it works out, but for now I just need your help for the next month, and you get a free place to stay (Ikea futon/bed, desk, and table included) and free utilities including wireless internet.
Personal assistant stuff includes:
* light yardwork/cleaning, I am a clean person, you should be too
* cooking if you're good with that
* running errands
* mind-numbing data entry work; you should be ok with computers--some of the data entry is adult-oriented so if you're prudish about reading certain words it's probably not going to work, sorry
No creeps, please, this is not that kind of personal assistant. You get your own bathroom, we share a kitchen, laundry, living room. No cigarette smoking, no big parties, 420 friendly, pets only if you can convince me they will be okay. Please do not PM me, email me at AubreyWatt (gmail) if you are interested or have questions. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Pictures and info on every single one of the 63 currently living Faroese Horses (xpost from r/horses) | It's not in English though, but is easy to follow nontheless
The Faroese horse is considered by many to be one of the oldest breeds alive, as they (along with the icelandic horse) have been isolated for nearly 1000 years with hardly any new blood coming into the gene pool.
The headings above the list are
"Mynd-Picture"
"Navn-Name (in some cases a name has a single number
afterwards, this is due to there being more than one horse with
the same name)"
"Skrásetingar nr.- Registration nr"
"Kyn-Gender" Hestur-castrated Stallion, Ryssa-Mare, Greðingur-Stallion.
"Aldur-Age"
When clicking on the pictures you'll get individual data on each horse, birthday, ownership history and general history, temperatment, bloodline etc. As well as several pictures of said horse.
There has been immense preservation work put into these horses.
Back in the last century pretty much all of them where sold to the UK to work in coal mines, due to their size and strength, and not before a couple in the mid 60's started thinking about them, did a conservation effort start, and then it was almost too late, after dna and other related tests, they worked out there where only five pure bloods left that could breed, one stallion and four mares.
Since then all horses have been tested and been proven to be pure bloods.
In 2003 it was for the first time really proven that the Faroese horse is a breed apart from all others. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
After that promo by Ambrose on RAW, I started to see the resemblance of a certain bad guy... | That bad guy being Scott Hall.

Any recommendations for a dojo around Toronto burbs? | I've always been interested in martial arts since I was a kid, and current life situation is making feel like now is the time to take it up, but without experience, I'm wary of walking into a McDojo. I've been looking at sites online, but that has to be a terrible gauge. So if anyone knows of a place, I'd definitely check out any recommendations first.
Style spectrum-wise, I think I'd be more into something like Wushu and Wing Chun with Judo and BJJ on the far end away from me. I want to do this more for personal sport and training, not so much (actual) self defense or competition. For location reference, I live and work around that corner where North York meets Scarborough meets Thornhill meets Markham.

I go to church for the sex. | I'm a life long atheist in my 40's and I've been dating a Christian girl for about a year now. We both know she's hypocritical about having sex outside of marriage but her excuse is that she just can't help it. I stay overnight at her place on Saturday night, we go to church Sunday morning then spend the afternoon in bed before I return home. The sex is mindblowing and she aims to please.
She's into roleplay and I've considered suggesting a priest/catholic school girl scenario.
The church I attend with her is a "come as you are" church and frankly I think a lot of the women there dress "come as you cum" as there are a fair number of gals with super tight jeans, glittery makeup, and shirts that accentuate their ample bosoms.
I wish my phone didn't make so much noise when taking photos. :P | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Why do euro V8s sound different the american ones | ok while the BMW M5, AMG Mercs, and other German V8s usually have always had higher pitches than their american counterparts i have never found out why. i know that the US ones are a little bigger so that probably plays a part since most Germans don't get much larger than 5.5 lt but for the most part i always assumed that it had something to do with the fact that the euro cars have had DOHCs and higher compression while most GMs had 16 valve push rod motors and fords have had 16v SOHCs until recently but after hearing a new mustang with the coyote V8 (DOHC 32v 5.0 11:1 comp) that still has a characteristically low range growl I'm wondering what else could be at play (maybe a longer stroke) that give domestic V8s to this day a deeper tone? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Tell me everything I need to know about playing Darius top! | As I am sure you are all aware, darius is on sale and I've been waiting for this for a while. Top is my least played lane and my only successful champion in top lane is rumble. As far as other positions go, I would consider myself a very strong mid and AD. mechanically I'm decent and very strong at cs'ing (as strong as you can be at 1400 elo lol). However I've always shy'ed away from top lane and Darius has always been a champion I've admired, so soon as his sale came up, the spare 500 RP i had was soon gone.
I know westrice recently made a guide but I would like to read a couple, preferably by higher end players if you know of any other 2k elo darius guides that would be great. other than that just what item builds are best, what champs should I look to play against or avoid etc..

Please Help! My Fraternity brother lost his father, his home and now his mother is terminally ill with cancer. | My fraternity brother Jake has had so many hardships in his life. He lost his father and had to go through college with only his mother to support him. He is a profound member of the Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity and a student at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, VA. He's an amazing person to be around and always has your back. His mother was just diagnosed with a rare form of terminal cancer. After the storms hit the east coast last week, his house has been destroyed by a tree that fell. Any donations would help provide for Jake and his sibling to make sure their mother is cared for as she peacefully moves on.
In the Jewish religion chai is the word for life. Often we make donations in variants of chai. Chai also stands for 18 so any donation of a multiple of 18 would be greatly appreciated. He's a great person and has gone through so much. Just looking for a little help for a straight A student who deserves a better life.

Jake Forer's family is going through an incredibly difficult time. His mother was diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma, a rare skin cancer, and is terminal. She is his only living parent. On top of this already life shattering news, a tree fell and crushed his house on Friday during the wind storm. His mother is currently living in the hospital while Jake and his sister live with a family friend.
Jake Forer is our fraternity brother. His family is our family. His hardships our hardships. We started this page because we are one. We must help our brother.
Between our collective families and networks, we aim to help alleviate the burden of hospital bills and potential repair costs to his home.
In Judaism, giving Tzedakah means doing what is right and just. As much as we are part of a Jewish fraternity, we are members of the Jewish tribe. Please share this message with your parents, grandparents, and rabbis and give what you can.
$20,000 might seem like a large amount, but it pales in comparison to the exorbitant cost of medical, repair, and tuition bills his family is now forced to suffer.
All donations will be sent to the AEPi Paypal account and given directly to the Forer's.
Give what you can, be it $5, $50, or $500. It is easy to demonstrate brotherly love during times of happiness. It is our responsibility and our joy to do so during times of hardship.
Thank you for reading and for contributing.

Simcraft for League of Legends | I don't know how many of you are familiar with Simulationcraft, but the gist of it is that it's a tool for analyzing potential DPS and raid composition in World of Warcraft. I haven't used it since I quit WoW over a year ago, but the more time I spend mathcrafting for LoL, the more I wish that there could be a similar project for all the Summoners out there.
The problem is that my technical expertise basically extends only to simple Excel calculations, and that LoL would be an incredibly complex system to model mathematically due to the incredibly high number of potential matchups and all of the different factors at play.
So as not to turn this into a "omg i have such a great idea i just need a programmer, designer, writer, producer, director, tank, and support to get it off the ground", what programming languages could experienced players recommend for someone looking to start this sort of thing?

Does anyone have any suggestions or things they'd like to see from this? All feedback is welcome. | reddit_title_body | 25 |

Reddit, I need some advice on debt for my mom. She is scared of losing her house. | So, unfortunately, my mom is poor. Recently, she called me up to talk about some things and started crying. Her husband recently left her and now she is struggling to pay her bills.
She works full time....but it just isn't enough.
Her main debts are her mortgage (really shitty) and credit cards. All told, it is less than $50,000.
I know this isn't a huge amount of money, but to her it is.
The first question I have is how to deal with the credit cards? If I am able to negotiate the debt and interest rates on the cards, she might be able to keep her house. I know this means giving up access to the cards, but I just don't know what to say to the companies.
The second question is what can I do about the mortgage? It is only about $30k but at a real shitty interest.
tl;dr: My mom is poor and needs help with some credit card debt. And her mortgage sucks. | reddit_title_body | 25 |

Help Reddit! InDesign Error Code: 5 | Hello Reddit,
I had been working on translating my friends graphic novel using InDesign 5.5 as that was what her publisher told her to use. I had just finished translating the entire thing and was ready to send it off earlier today, and wanting to make sure that things were working out okay and making sure that everything was in order, my face drops when I see the error screen that my file is damaged and/or corrupted and can't be opened. The deadline for this is in less than 32 hours and I have tried every single method that I've googled except for having to pay for the softwares since I'm a college student and dont have that much money.
I would be utterly grateful if someone would be able to help me salvage whatever I can from this. The main headache is that I lost all the text in the .indd file and I didn't create a simple text script to copy and paste the translations into. Even if it means that someone can help just salvage the text files it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance Redditors! | reddit_title_body | 25 |

The GOP combined the politics of two incompatible groups: The Rich and the Religious | Starting during the 70s/80s (but can be traced to Eisenhower), the Republican party has created a new narrative, that helping the rich indirectly helps the poor get jobs. They use the susceptibility of religious voters to believing-without-evidence, to work directly for the interests of the wealthy. They should be incompatible because religions are generally social organizations that pool their money to help the poor and fight against gluttony.
So the Republican party is about helping the rich, but just by the natural tendency of religious people to believe in ideas without evidence or science to back it up, the Republicans had to integrate religious interests into their party, because they are the only ones left that would work for the interests of the rich for free.
This wasn't some genius strategy, it was actually quite natural and gives the illusion that this was a Republican strategy that was designed, but it wasn't designed this way.
Don't think that only Republicans in the US do this. Conservatives in many other countries, also naturally join the rich and the religious. Because every other type of voter either is not rich, or they don't believe in something without evidence or facts to back it up.
This is why many of the intelligentsia of the Republican party, has left the party. We're only left with the Republican pundits, celebrities, and politicians, who refuse to even acknowledge basic facts of economics.
**TL:DR:** The Republican platform today, has become thus, **a cult of the rich**. Where any sort of evidence that would dismiss their methods or ideas, are considered "the liberal enemy," and brushed off.

So my question. When did the U.S.A. overtake the British and become the world sea superpower it is today? No, I'm not from the U.S.A. My guess is sometime either during or after World War 2, did most European nations decommission much of their naval power or did America simply keep expanding theirs so much? Was there a specific policy to dominate?
Today
USA - 11 Aircraft carriers.
Rest of the world - 11 Aircraft carriers.
Obviously numbers don't tell all the story but America has the largest overall navy and most submarines too. I accept that there's a degree of speculation here, but I strongly doubt any country is close to the U.S.A. I'm guessing there's a big drop to 2nd place (China?). | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Lancer PSA: You only need to block when a boss is attacking you. | There is nothing sadder than a lancer that blocks thirty seconds at a time and relies entirely on his taunts to hold aggro. For the love of the party, please don't be that guy. :( | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Need someone to work with me who is used to PHP. | Over the last couple of days I've been creating a file sharing site, one that looks very much like a desktop interface, but after not touching PHP for about 16months, my knowledge appears to have hit a roadblock.
I'm looking for someone who would be willing to help me write needed scripts etc. If the website takes off, a small share of profit would be the reward.
Here is a screenshot.

(22F) Want to ask out other guy(s) after little luck with the first one. How do I go about this gracefully? | I've asked out this guy (21M) I liked in class, but he didn't give me a clear answer and seems to be beating around the bush right now. I am not really sure what's up with that, and overall it kinda disappointed me. I am not even sure who is rejecting who here but I have pretty low hopes that the guy in question will grow some balls and go on a date with me so I intend to move on.
There are a few other guys I am interested in. I would like to ask them out, but I wouldn't want them to feel like they are being treated as second sort or something. There's actually a much bigger list than these 2, but I want to concentrate on them, so far. (note that I do not really value my first impressions. How a guy is at a date is far more important to me than how much I liked them on the surface)
One guy (21-22M) I know a bit better, we have talked multiple times about all sorts of stuff. We're vaguely aware of each other. He invited me for a beer once but I couldn't go due to driving problems. I know he's single, he knows I am single. We talk about each other's dating pursuits. He told me about a girl who turned him down, and I told him about the guy mentioned above.
He's a cool guy, quite attractive physically and intellectually. We agree on some philosophical points, we share a few things, and there are a few things we don't share. Quite balanced.
Another guy (1?-22M) I know little of, but I liked his attitude and he seemed like a really nice person. I've met him at a club this year. He's a bit skinny for my taste, but I could go past that, and he's actually very handsome. We've spoken to each other here and there and played some games together, he seemed quite friendly. With him there's a major problem, though, he's a "friend" of the guy mentioned at the beginning. I don't know how close they are as friends but they work for the club together so they probably converse a lot.
Not telling them about the guy at the beginning isn't really acceptable in my book. And we're all in the same melting pot so a lot of people know each other anyway.
My concern here is making these guys uncomfortable or putting pressure on them or making them feel bad or making me look like a bitch or whatever. I don't particularly care how the guy mentioned at the beginning feels about things, but I don't want to treat the other two wrongly.
So how do I ask them out/imply romantic interest with one of these two? I suppose this would basically be multidating if we include the guy at the beginning, and I never multidated and the idea is a bit iffy for me.
Overall, how do you continue asking new guys out after a few initial rejections? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Just found out this weekend that my 5.5yr old son has type 1 Diabetes. What are some things I may have in store that the doctors commonly overlook? | So after an extremely sleepless and scary weekend, my son was diagnosed with type one Diabetes. He was showing all the symptoms (That I know now.) when we brought him into the hospital. He could barely stand and he was so weak. His blood sugar was at 1300. Scariest moment of my life was when the many doctors helping him explained what was going on and how serious it was.
Fast forward three days later and he is at home and his mom is working on keeping things under control. (We haven't been together for quite sometime. Joint Legal custody is what I have.) No extra organ damage and his brain fortunately did not swell. His keytones have also went away. So for the most part he is on the road to becoming healthy.
The point of this post is just to ask everyone what I should prepare myself for aside from the overwhelming amount of information being presented to us. What are maybe some smaller issues / social issues that he may end up facing as he is only in Kindergarten right now. I am just extremely worried as I am sure most parents are in this first stage but would just like some perhaps nerve reassuring, suggestions of where to go from here.
Sorry for the semi vague question I am just flustered and honestly do not know the best way to handle things. Perhaps some shared experiences from other parents may help? I would just really like to know everything is going to be alright... He is honestly the sweetest boy I have ever known in my entire life and he is handling everything better than I could have ever imagined. I just want to show him that his dad can be as strong as him during all this..
EDIT:: I always think it is kind of cheesy for someone to edit an original post to add content or say thanks. But in this situation I can not think of any other way to show my gratitude towards this community. After a very long night of work with nothing else on my mind other than this past week it was extremely refreshing to read all of your comments and wonderful advice! I will no doubt be subscribing to this subreddit and will try to become more active in its interworkings. This is truly remarkable and I am sure I will have many more questions as soon as I am finished with this edit. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
How have you experienced pokemon trainers changed since your early days? | Just a thought that popped into my head today and I began to think about what kind of a trainer I was almost a decade ago.
Some of the most prominent changes I noticed about myself were that back then I would have a full party of pokemon after the first gym, while now I make it past the fifth gym using only four or so pokemon. I also noticed that I never use potions/revives in battle anymore, regardless of how many I own, and I only catch pokemon using the standard pokeball while back then I would primarily use ultra balls.
So how about you guys? What are some changes you've noticed about your playstyle? | reddit_title_body | 25 |
How to flatten a hardcover book? | I have a book about 9x11" whose cover has become concave, arching upwards at the corners like the roof of a pagoda. How do I restore its flatness? Weighing it down with a larger heavier book has not worked. | reddit_title_body | 25 |
Where to swing dance in Seattle/Eastside? | I tried one of the lessons + dances at HaLo (with Century Ballroom) about a year ago, and it was alright but kinda empty and I'm still looking for the heart of the Seattle swing dancing scene. Was it just a slow night? Are there certain places/nights to look for?
My ideal dance is, say, a regular weekly dance which attracts dancers of all levels. Welcoming atmosphere is a plus! Oh, also, I'm not 21 yet...
I've been swing dancing for a couple years now at my college and am comfortable with the basics ...I'm at that plateau stage where I really just need to dance a whole lot (with lots of good dancers!) in order to level up :P
EDIT: Sunday nights at Century Ballroom]( confirmed to be lots of fun!! Definitely more crowded than the HaLo swing dance (the same guy taught us, lol), and more levels of dancers, varying from absolute beginner to pretty darn good, though maybe not world-class (I'm very comfortable with this though :P I will be going back). Next to try is [Thursday nights at The Russian...
DOUBLE EDIT: Also up next to try is kirkland swing, though this is a little ways away. Will keep updated! EDIT:.....ok, I tried this out but it was during jitterbug weekend so it wasn't as crowded as it usually is, but it seems pretty kickass
Also, I hit jackpot in terms of dance location/information:
Ok, I also recommend the Savoy Swing Club on Monday nights...that's it for now! Peace! | reddit_title_body | 25 |
