| MNTwins1991 07/31/18 10:20:55 AM #497 | Oh, right. Sort of related, I read this article a while ago discussing Lebron's value, as in how much money and fans he brings to the NBA. Like when he comes to MN for example, it's always a sell out game with people who just want to see lebron play, even when the wolves were garbage. There's not really a way to put a number on his value, but it's way way more than his max contract gives him. |

| MNTwins1991 07/31/18 9:55:14 AM #495 | It's a weird situation..Like I mentioned, it was only a year ago thielen signed that contract, but he was 2nd team all pro last year and Diggs is getting way more. Edit: oh, well there you have it I guess https://twitter.com/GoesslingStrib/status/1024278402260525056?s=19 CaptainHammer posted... The thing is most good players probably *should* holdout but they care about their image with the fans too much I would guess that money is a bigger reason... |

| MNTwins1991 07/31/18 9:42:21 AM #493 | Vikings re-sign Diggs for 14 mil a year through 2022. Thielen is averaging less than 5 mil a year though 2020. He signed that contract only a year ago, but I wonder if he'll ask for a pay increase. He's been as productive if not more productive than Diggs, partially because Diggs has missed a game or 2 a season due to injury. Thielen doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would demand a new contract and holdout, but who knows. Maybe if he has a monster year |

It's just the app that gets you in trouble. ^ I don't know what you mean by that, but if athletes/famous people on twitter follow Dwight's very simple rule they will be just fine: Whenever I'm about to do something, I think, "Would an idiot do that?" And if they would, I do not do that thing. |

| MNTwins1991 07/30/18 12:29:57 AM #469 | You would think that even before these recent re surge of old tweets resurfacing, athletes and other famous people would first of all, not say stuff like that on social media, and second, go back through all their old tweets. Surprising that people with tens/hundreds of thousands of followers plus would be more mindful of that Remember when Cam Newton said something like "it's funny hearing a female talk about routes" and caused that whole mess? People went through that reporter's twitter and found old racist tweets. It's weird that I'm more mindful of my tweets just for potential employers and stuff than an actual reporter is |

My parents' resort has a donut machine and they make their own from donut mix... this thing can crank out like 200 donuts an hour. It's kind of their claim to fame. People go apeshit over the donuts.

I also don't really like pie. A slice of cherry pie or blueberry every once in a while is fine, but I never seek it out and pretty much always turn it down at thanksgiving and stuff.

| MNTwins1991 07/24/18 10:42:20 PM #394 | I started off on a radioactive poisonous planet, went around gathering things and repaired my ship, then flew to another planet, which was this really cold planet with big mountains, forests, and huge forests. It also had these 20 ft tall walking rhino looking things and 18 foot tall walking otter looking things, with these weirdass 2 legged deer, but they were all non aggressive. Built a base out of wood (which is funny because everything is all high tech). One thing I liked in ME is flying around and looking at the atmosphere, temperatures, and mineral contents of planets, which is what you do in this game except you can land on them. My friend also joined my game and built a base on a nearby planet with teleporters so we can warp between our sides of the universe. |

Me and this girl were gonna take over when the guy left and he had been working with another guy who got demoted when we got these jobs. So Friday was the guy's last day and I was a little worried but kind of blase about it. This morning though the girl told me she's quitting too and probably will be gone before next week. Her boyfriend broke up with her so she's moving back home. Now I'm in charge and we're getting the fail guy back up here to help me.

There's a local bar that does a beer spelling bee every other Saturday. You pay $7, get a number assigned to you and a ticket you can exchange for a beer. Every time you spell a word right, you get another ticket. At this spelling bee, there was only me and 1 other person left. My word was "Wookiee." If I had spelled it right, I would have won the whole thing, but I forgot the extra E and ended up getting 2nd place. |

But the game is stupid hard to run and the developers seem obsessed with adding extraneous new content instead of fixing bugs and other issues with the game. I personally don't really likethe building part of fortnite, but the game's way more accessible than pubg |

They also used to start a group text for some event that I'm not going to go to because I live 3+ hours away, and then spam the group for days (sometimes over a week) with dumb banter/gifs. It was borderline torture. They did this with Facebook messenger too (I'd not check my phone for a couple hours and there would be 120 messages) but at least with fb you can mute/ leave the group They have now switched to discord thankfully |

STLCards1991 posted... Being a goalie is also impossible in this sport One of the most interesting parts of soccer to me is those free kicks (or whatever they're called) where it's 1 guy kicking in the crease, and the goalie seems to basically flip a coin deciding which direction to dive. A lot of times they jump in the complete opposite direction of the ball. I know it's infinitely more complicated than it looks though |

It was actually a pretty good deal (you gotta get the $5 one, which are decent blades and the $1 ones for which it's named are pretty crappy). I had learned to be hyper conservative with the blades because they're so expensive. After like a year of $5 shave club, I had so many packs of blades stacking up that I canceled. Enough to last for years if I still used normal blades. A business that lost business for itself by doing its job.... |

I had to go over the whole thing with the trimmer attachment (which I think is only meant for touch ups, not full on trimming) -battery seemed good but we'll see how it works over time -not really irritation so far, which is good because I would get that sometimes with regular razors -It kind of took a long time, but that might be cause my beard was longer than intended use of the razor |

| MNTwins1991 07/14/18 11:13:35 AM #153 | CaptainHammer posted... I used to have a razor like that back when I was clean shaven. Now I have just a trimmer that I use for the occasional touchup. I liked it fine but you need to stay on top of your grooming if you're going to use one of those because it can hurt if the hairs it's getting are too long. Well now I feel even worse. BUT one of the major selling points of this thing I bought is that you can apparently take off the main attachment and there's a regular trimmer underneath it. Another bad omen, is that my trip to target was a complete disaster. I went to the self checkout because I only had like 3 things, and after scanning the first 2, I realized that the electric razor had one of those security things wrapped around it (like video games) that only the cashier can remove. I tried to cancel my self checkout order, but then it went right to the screen that said "an employee is on their way to help." I had to stare at myself awkwardly in the camera for a full minute until someone came over and removed the thing. |
