Getting to work an hour early every day is a pretty big deal. That's like 250 hours of unpaid overtime you're giving your boss every year. If you spent those hours sleeping you'd have another hour to do whatever you wanted the day before. 10-15 minutes isn't a big deal, but the point here is...

Your posts project the impression that you are far more concerned with your child being "successful" or "productive" than you are with how happy they are. That you see your child as an extension of yourself and that your reputation depends on them meeting certain arbitrary standards. To some...

I was a lot more shocked by the assertion that he's willing to essentially give his employer an hour of unpaid overtime every single day just so he can avoid being late to work once in a while. Where do you people work where this kind of slavish dedication is expected?

This isn't all that rare, domestic slavery is a real thing, even in Western countries.

I don't see BLS surviving without a massive nerf if they're nerfing HoWA. It's exactly the same mechanic. That's especially true if they're buffing Emberwake because the double-dipping removal actually makes ignite stacking with Molten Strike stronger because the less damage from Molten Strike...

I honestly don't know how anything will ever kill Shaper with double dipping removed and they've already said they're not nerfing the HP of Shaper/Guardians. We'll be going from builds that do 10 million DPS to builds that do 250k DPS.

There's also the fact that Ryancare/Trumpcare replaces percent-based subsidies with flat amounts. This reduces the amount of subsidy for people that live in areas with high costs of living (city voters that vote Democrat) and increases the amount of subsidy for people that live in areas with low...

These tests are always frustrating because you never really know if you're supposed to answer the question based on the reality it defines or if you're supposed to go a level down and try to apply the parameters to the real world first. A great example is, "A nuclear bomb has been planted in a...

This Well, my biggest issue with the Left is the despicable free speech suppression. I think the Muslim issue would solve itself if this problem were to be fixed. I just can't see how all the liberals that escaped childhoods of religious shaming and brainwashing are ever going to be thrilled...

It's the part where he says a woman that fucks without wanting emotional commitment is a whore that's the problem.

What does actually beat taunt Warrior? Their endgame is almost as strong as the Jade Druid endgame but unlike Jade Druid, it also crushes aggro and aggressive midrange rather than being crushed by it.

Wither CWC Firestorm with Consuming Dark is pretty much strictly superior to Bladefall. Even with only 30% conversion, having an extra gem slot for conc effect, getting elemental overload, and double dipping on duration mods makes it worth it.

We just got in our newest crop of interns so I'm also getting this. One of them just saw that old Simpsons episode with the gay steel mill and is really mad about it. "Just how bigoted was your generation? This is nothing but one hateful stereotype after another, yet they gave it a bunch of...

You can run 13k life if you want. The real issue with this is, quite frankly, the bottom half of the tree is utter shit compared to the top half, and the top half is where all the ES happens to be. STR and STR/DEX skills are complete garbage as a general rule, every build today is based off...

Vaal Pact is honestly worse than ES. At least ES has drawbacks you have to contend with to get the extra EHP. VP on the other hand makes you unkillable to anything except straight one shots. Once you have that ability, the only thing that matters from there is EHP and that means CI/ES.

Obamacare prevented a friend from college from literally dying.

Shaman - Deckbuilder - HearthPwn Earth Shock is really good again in this meta. It handles all the overpowered one drops better than lightning bolt, (leaving them with a silenced 1/1 or 1/2 is better than overloading yourself) and scales up really well.

I've been absolutely tearing it up with crusher Shaman. Obliterates the aggro decks with a wall of taunts and heals and since you're just running a ton of big minions, you walk over dragon Priest. Jade Druid also still can't beat FWF and Earth Elemental so that's also a good match up...

What are "multiplicative skill duration modifiers"? I thought they were all additive, which ones are multiplicative?

The damage increase from Wither stacks is multiplicative with all other modifiers, right? So 20 wither stacks means you do 2.4x chaos damage? Currently theorycrafting a Scion ED build for HC that's both incredibly tanky and uses Hierophant in order to drop double Wither totems and maintain 20...

People played with Stormforged Axe? Really? That must have been before I started playing, because I never saw that card.

Well, doom hammer doesn't really count as it hits for 4 per turn. I did forget about glaive, though.

I'm really skeptical of Jade Claws being playable. Has a 2 power weapon ever been good enough in any deck?

I'm going to assume this letter was sent before or during the Cuban Crisis. In which case, the US actually was planning to invade Cuba.

The issue is basically any Rogue deck will autowin against any slow deck. So giving them good anti aggro tools is dangerous.

Wither is a channeled skill, so you could do Wither + Contagion and then separately socket Essence Drain with max damage/duration gems.

Yeah, this. There is no rational basis for embargoing Cuba while having China as our biggest trade partner other than, "Cuba is a tiny irrelevant country, so we can use them to pretend we care about anti-Communism without it really costing us anything."

My sister brought the whole family here for Thanksgiving. Given that I don't know shit about skiing or snowboarding, has anyone been here and have some good ideas on stuff to do/places to go?

Toyota had to pay out $1.2 billion over their sudden unintended acceleration defect. This killed 89 people. There were 35,000 fatal crashes in the US last year. Even if self-driving cars reduce that to 350, that's still almost $5 billion that they have to pay out every year.

It's not even leech. Just do this with Blade Vortex and Abyssal Cry linked to Poison. You're not even relying on leech to facetank shit, your ES naturally regenerates at a rate of 15% per second. You can stand directly on top of Labyrinth traps and take no damage. High tier map bosses melt in...

Them putting Breath of the Council into the base game means they have to massively pre-nerf literally everything Chaos/Poison related. Looks like they went overboard this time. PoE became a lot less fun once I realized poison builds just absolutely shit on everything else and I can run builds...

Ex-Boyfriend Dummy Anyone have a guess on how long until Reddit and the SJWs in general go nuts over this?

It's worse in healthcare where they'll give you the vacation and then try and guilt you into coming in during the vacation. "Bob is really sick and you're the only other one that knows how to do X, surely you don't want little Timmy to have cancer and not realize it, do you?"

This has not been my experience at all and I only get praise from healers. You have to do quite a few counter intuitive things to make BrM good so my guess is it is the player. Is he running High Tolerance? If he is, he's doing it wrong and it's certainly him.

I play Brewmaster and I can tell you DK is by far the worst tank. It's not even close. At least BrM has high EHP, doesn't get one shot, isn't vulnerable to healing debuffs, and has a really strong mastery. DK has no EHP, no mobility, a useless mastery, gets fucked by healing debuffs, and has the...

The real problem with the legendaries is poor secondary stat balance. Xavaric is crazy good if those are the right stats for you, but useless if they're not.

Nightbane is probably the best boss to blow a bonus token on because he only drops chest pieces, relics, and trinkets.

Guardian is preferred for M+15 because of battle rez, stampeding roar, and the offspec affinities. AFAIK the only healers to complete +15 are resto Druid and disc Priest, that doesn't mean all the other healers are shit. Warrior is the best parsing Mythic raid tank by quite a lot.

Warrior is still the best tank by miles, it's just not now so game-breakingly overpowered that raiding with any other tanks was basically 19-manning it because using Warrior tanks meant you needed 1 healer less. 18x AP for Ignore Pain is way, way stronger than equivalent effects on other tanks...

Midrange Shaman doesn't play FWF anymore which is the main reason it changed from a favorable matchup to a coin flip.
