Commission so tough to break it down by hour. I made around $70,000 last year and expect to make more this year.

What do you do


AV dealer for Magnolia Design Center. I'm lucky in that Massachusetts has tons of commission laws so we make minimum wage+commission in this state which is nuts when the same employees in other states have to deal with a draw against system that pays out less.

I remember the Mandalorian heavy pistols being fucking devestating mid game dual wielded by someone with high dexterity. But the game is super super easy regardless so it doesn't really matter.

That and Naga Sadows Poison blade I found to be stronger than any light saber. Always kept one in the primary hand with a regular saber in the off hand on my PC.

It sounds silly, but considering how dangerous food allergies can be it seems really irresponsible to depict them that way in a children's movie. Especially considering what a hot button issue it has been in schools the last few years

The heroes do plenty of dangerous and life-threatening things in kids movies.
This seems like a silly one to get upset about.


Just to play devils advocate a bit. I have a nut allergy and have dealt with this my whole life in varying situations. From kids in elementary school throwing peanuts at me to my college roommate getting hammered and "pranking" me by crushing a peanut into my coffee.

Kids generally know that dropping a fucking weight onto someones head or shooting someone in the face is dangerous. But not that allergies can be life threatening. That's why this is bad.

Just my two cents.


Did the kids at your elementary school throw nuts at you because they watched a movie where somebody threw food at somebody who was allergic? Or did they just do it anyway?


They threw nuts because they didn't realize it wasn't something right to do. The behavior stopped as soon as a teacher intervened and they saw me go to the hospital. This happening in a light hearted scene in a kids movie makes it seem like allergies are not a big deal.

Kids understand guns kill, that hitting someone with something heavy will hurt them. Allergies are one of those things that unless you have someone close to you with them you don't realize are dangerous.

I still think it's fake. To clarify, not being hit by a train, but it being an accident. Traveling by train in India is practically a way of life, I find it hard to believe that someone would miscalculate how close they are standing to the tracks. Secondly, read what is written on his shirt. I have no doubt he did this to try and set up his own 15 minutes of memes, or something.

Someone purposefully calmly nearly killed themselves


People are purposefully eating tide pods these days. Don't underestimate human stupidity lol


I can see the issue here. Guy obviously didn't realize how wide the train was going to be. He was standing off the tracks and to him that was far enough and because his back was to the train and he was staring at his gob in his cameras view finder had no idea the train was going to hit him.

As for doing this to become an IRL meme? Seriously? Getting hit by a train is one of those things that pretty much assuredly kills or dismembers you. You don't walk away from a train unscathed. He wasn't planning on getting hit. No way.

Collectibles are investments tbh. You'd be surprised how much some of the rarer ones go for.

I never collected these except a Powergirl one I got for $2 on Amazon because there's just too many, but so many people laugh at figures and shit like that but I'm almost sitting on $200k of collectibles just from the past 2-3 years.


This isn't true with funko pops. The only rare ones are the ones you can get at cons. The funko pops that you can get at Newbury Comics, Hot Topic, Target or the like are practically worthless since they're printed in such high quanitity. Even chase figures are nonsense when companies like Newbury Comics charge more for them.

Considering the high quality figures start at $30-50 and nicer statues $100+,yes $9-12 for a small 4-6in figure is cheap.

I mean, it's better than it used to be. But it still jumbles everything up pretty bad, makes odd word choices by directly converting the English word to some rough Japanese equivalent, and overall will only give you the gist of what the original writer was trying to say.


Its good enough for one word translations. I'm at the reading children's books stage of learning Japanese and I've been keeping google translate handy for words I haven't encountered yet (of which there are many).

If you like podcasts, listen to Japanese from Zero from the beginning casually. If you're going through Genki you already know the content but the podcast is by a guy who lives in Japan and teaches you how to not sound like a foreigner when you speak Japanese that classes won't ever teach because they want you to be overly polite.

The point is that language learning works your mind in completely different ways than anything else I've found. Especially a language like Japanese that is completely different than English. Just learning a language like Spanish or French from English is cake. Going from English to Japanese is learning a whole new writing system, alphabet and way of thinking because everything from where verbs are in a sentence to the alphabet is completely different.

Keeps you sharp.

I've been working my way through Genki 1 and 2 the past couple weeks after I memorized hiragana and katakana and I managed to get Rosetta Stone for $20 (The program itself is pretty useless for learning a language like Japanese but thats a steal for 12 classes with a native speaker).

Ok so I can confirm the Tron wallet move does work.

yw, btw.

I moved 300 Tron to their wallet and I have 600 now, about an hour later.


Is it confirmed you need to deposit Tron to get the bonus?

Well thats what I'm fuzzy on. According to the reddit post from Justin about a week ago you just need to register an account and at some point he will award the first 1 million with up to 3000 trx (i think)

But I registered last week and didnt see any until I moved it. SO, I might move the rest a see if I can double up my 1000 trx.

So maybe you do have to move trx first, but maybe he will just throw some to the accounts in the future, regardless.


I moved 600 of my TRX over to the Tron site and haven't gotten any extra tron coins.

On the plus side, trons at a quarter right now and I bought in at three cents so backflips are being done.

yep yep! give it an hour or so maybe, i think thats how long it took to show in mine.

i got in at .4 cents and cant believe the jump its made. I think one thing that sets Tron apart from some of these other good companies is that this dude can market/promote the shit out of this thing.


I went in with a few hundred bucks that I was alright losing to get my feet wet and now I'm sitting here with $2000 worth of tron in less than a week.

It's been about a day now. Doesn't look like people on reddit got the extra TRX either. But we'll see. I'll leave it there for awhile. Wish I listened to my friend, he bought $10,000 worth of TRX was it was 2 cents. Its nonsense.
