#91 NFL 2017-2018 THREAD in Off Topic

Caught Browns V. Colts - was what I expected but at least somebody had a solid chance at winning. Both new QBs had ups and downs - and that was a pretty special catch from Leslie that had only been on the team, or even the league really, for 2 days.

Also caught the Packers V. Bengals game. Was a good watch, not much to say about it though, Bengals are still all over the place and the Packers are beat up all the time.

Also I still can't believe that Jacksonville score - only 2 years ago they were "just playing for fun" because they were godawful and they absolutely slaughtered a 1/2 decent team - shadows of their former selves - but still.

#34 Worst nightmare you've had? in Off Topic

I had a few memorable nightmares as a kid and they almost always involved Alien abduction - it really started to bother me lol.

But as I've gotten older I hardly ever remember my dreams, and when I do they're mostly lucid so I can control what does and does not happen. Mostly now my dreams, that I can remember, that aren't bad ass, are mostly relating to somebody asking me for a specific object and then I can't ever find said object. This has been going on for about 15 years now lol.

Five is bad but I mean... I guess people get really down on new QBs who have targeting problems, but the problem is there is MASSIVE culture shock essentially from being moved to the NFL - so I tend to r-e-l-a-x on it.

For perspective. http://www.nfl.com/player/peytonmanning/2501863/gamelogs?season=1998

Yeah, you read that right ol' Peyton threw more picks than TDs his rookie year. There was some panic about it, but they stayed the course and everything turned out fine.

#72 NFL 2017-2018 THREAD in Off Topic

The 49's won two games last season. I doubt there is some miracle change that results in them being a good team just by Brian Hoyer becoming QB. He's pretty inconsistent, sometimes he's good, and sometimes he's a non-factor. Not even Kap at his very best would make too much of a difference. You have teams with 52 people, and while QB is important, you gotta have *something* else somewhere that would prevent such an abysmal performance.

Don't worry Viper, in 2014, as a joke, I made a bet that I would watch EVERY Browns game in their entirety, either live or post-record. I lost the bet and ended up having to live through that whole disaster step by step. They actually could've been a good team too is the really sad part of it all. Remember how they ABSOLUTELY slaughtered the Bengals and their entire crowd went home in the 3rd quarter and there were like 15 Browns fans just going crazy lol - + fun side note, that was the first time the Browns had moved into first place in their division in 20+ years. Or how every time Hoyer had an incomplete pass or even a moment's hesitation, the camera would *instantly* zoom in on Johnny Manziel and I died more and more each game. Or from the defense that was frankly great, that was then completely lost or traded off because the players knew the team was a joke and would never improve and thus went anywhere else. Or even Crowell stringing together some good games and "Feed the Crow!" chants.

But hey, today was par for the course for the Colts. I thought "hey maybe it's all coming together? The Cards are supposed to be kinda good right!?" and then everything in the 4th and OT happened.

#12 new open team needs a mumble in TF2 General Discussion

My main problems with discord are probably all related to me not knowing how to use the program properly, but the MAIN thing I hate about it is that it alt-tabs me if I drop from the server and set it to reconnect, it'll alt-tab me 2-3 times throughout its "connecting" procedure and won't drop me back into the channel I was originally. Not as big of a problem if you're a non-fullscreen type, but I'm old and like that fullscreen life. It sent me to literal alt-tab hell.

The Colts continue their slide into degeneracy. Now, I can enjoy a return to the football I knew so well as a child, that is, being a complete disaster interspersed with periodic moments of hope that will be dashed continually.

#13 do i have autism? in Off Topic

I mean if you made it through school without being diagnosed and actually do have some sort of spectrum disorder, somebody *really* fucked up, or you don't. But if you're suffering from depression it's not unusual to feel emotionally exhausted and incapable of really feeling anything for periods of time. I wouldn't bother with the autism thing unless you really are having trouble communicating/functioning in certain important fields (school/work) and you think it's due to something aside from depression/anxiety, etc.

#26 sport tips in Off Topic

My most vivid sports and water memory, is during my first two-a-day, whenever somebody threw up, the nearest person was obliged to jump on the vomiting person's back and strike them as you would a horse and shout "GET THE DEMONS OUT" this happened to 8-9 people and continued every year I played football.

You've got a few options on the mouse feet.

1. Is you can try to do it SUPER carefully, and you may be able to put the original feet back into place

2. Is yes, they do usually sell mouse feet on their website, or you can likely find them from an alternate retailer (ebay or etc).

3. You can replace them with tape. They do make this stuff called "mouse tape" but unless it's got a Teflon coating I don't see how its appreciably different from using scotch tape (which is what I did for years and years).

So in short, you could do it right now, and if you screw them up when you take them off and can't get them back on properly, then just use the scotch tape replacement as a stop-gap until you can secure new feet or Teflon coated tape if you're not happy with the scotch tape.

Even if it's not plunger wear you'll still need to get in there and clean anyhow "contact cleaner" is fairly easy to find and would probably be the ideal stuff to use on the contact itself.

Open the mouse, you'll find a plunger - on my previous death adder it was a clear plastic thing glued to the top of the mouse's outer shell, I assume the abyssus is similar in design, but you may wanna consult youtube or the razer website on how best to get to this particular institution.

Then take a standard fingernail file and file the m1 plunger down just a little bit, and maybe do a nice cleaning while you're in there.

What has likely happened is that as you've played the plastic piece that pushes the mouse's m1 contact down has gotten a divot or small hole in it, and when you press down the contact just goes right into the hole and isn't depressed, hence why you have to go at an angle (because the sides of the plunger are still their original size) so if you just remove those sides you'll be good as new :D Any standard nail file will work, and there's basically no chance that you'll screw up your mouse unless you *really* go overboard with the filing.

#7 Ghosts in Off Topic

At my museum, I have two interns from HS.

Now, full disclosure, I informed them on their respective first days of work, that the building we're in *used* to be a furniture store and mortuary in the 1930s and before that had been a car parts store, with a Masonic lodge hidden in the upstairs. The basement is where all of our non-display non-paper items are stored, still looks VERY much like a mortuary, including the pit where they would drain the corpses. Also, being a museum, we have 1 1/2 full human skeletons in boxes in said basement (I have not disclosed that one of said skeletons was a mass murderer), and an assortment of fossils and bones of various creatures. I told them this on their first day because the situation may come up where they would be required to handle these objects and operate in this area, and I wanted to make sure they didn't have any misgivings. Both said they had overactive imaginations, but could probably hack it just fine.

Well, needless to say, the two of them became friends, but work different hours, and so they will consistently up the ante on each other regarding creepy happenings in the basement.

First one reported hearing speech, then the next reported seeing things in the dark, and then while I was upstairs doing things one of them called my cell phone and asked me to come down right away - she sounded pretty upset. So, I took the elevator from 2 to basement, and found her standing there trying to call it down pretty frantically, and after the shock of me being in the elevator wore off, she informed me that there was a pile of dust on the floor in the draining room that had children's shoe prints in it and she was done being in the basement for a while. So, I sent her up and went to investigate.

Indeed, right in the best lit spot, was a small pile of dust, with two children's shoe prints carefully put into it to look like they were stepping.

Could it be spooky ghosties? Probably not I'm inclined to think, but I know that *I* didn't go through all the trouble of finding kid's shoes, sweeping up a bit of dust, and then carefully pressing them into said dust in a walking pattern, so now I'm on the search for the prankster.

#50 ESEA S25 GF: froyotech vs. Ascent in Matches

Actually Blegh, the first STV was broken, but the players, casters, and Tri managed to save the day before anybody was the wiser!

#23 ESEA S25 GF: froyotech vs. Ascent in Matches

@glass, in the past it has been discussed to do just that - with the prerogative being left to the players themselves, and so far they've invariably chosen to continue playing. I assume the option simply isn't on the table presently because ascent and froyo have done this a few times now ;) and so far they've always gone straight to the second set.
