Tramadol as an antidepressant?
I've seen and heard a little about this potential use, and I'm interested in it myself. I've been through a variety of antidepressants and I get by right now, but I've taken tramadol a few times before and it really makes me feel normal. I feel like it cured me of some sickness. I do have an addictive personality, but I have things under check now, and I'm seriously considering getting a prescription. I function a lot better on it. Is this just a honeymoon type thing or have their been cases where it has been sucessfully used as an antidepressant/antianxiety drug?

Any experience adopting & traveling locally with small dogs?
I found a great shelter in Beijing (owned by the American Chris Barden, in the Shunyi District, if you have the chance to visit) and plan on adopting one of the smaller dogs to bring back to the states. (Paperwork for the US is very easy, and the process to exit China is fairly simple) I actually live in Chengde, and my school and apartment are very dog-friendly, but I was curious as to whether anyone had experience in being stealthy bringing small, well-behaved dogs on local buses for trips less than 30 minutes. I've heard it's technically not permitted and up to the discretion of the bus driver, but has anyone tried disguising a bag/backpack and had luck with it? Wondering if it's worth trying to sneak around on public transportation, or just visit the pup until I can bring them back to the states in January.

Should I use my AP Physics C credit?
I'm sure you guys get this a lot, and I've been trying to find a more definitive answer but opinion seems to be fairly scattered. I really would rather not have to take physics again. I enjoy physics, but it is just harder to learn than biology or chemistry to me. I've been looking at a few practice/sample MCAT questions and none of the physics questions seem to be all that difficult, so it's not really a question of whether or not I want to brush up on physics but rather if med schools really care if I use the AP or not. From my searches I've been getting a lot of people who say not to use the AP, but also people saying that it shouldn't matter for physics, so I'm kind of confused. This is an issue for me right now since if I claim my physics AP I can get bumped up to junior registration classification(earlier registration times), and since my school's college of natural science is huge-mongous, this is a big deal(classes filling up on the first day of registration, etc). I'd like to be able to have an earlier registration day, but if using my AP physics credit to do so jeopardizes my med school prereqs I might not want to do so. Any suggestions?

Why doesn't a submission get on top in /new/ once it gets unblocked by a moderator if it gets spam filtered?
As I see it, the current system of /new/ of only sorting by the time submitted (not the time it got submitted/unblocked) encourages deleting ones links to then resubmit them because in the more popular subreddits in 30 minutes it will be long gone from the first page of /new/ and won't even have a chance to get noticed. But also reddit's spam filter doesn't like this, so that brings me the question "how is the system intended to work?" because currently to me it seems counterintuitive. ~~Edit: Oh the irony, this got spam filtered.~~ Edit 2: No I'm stupid /new/ takes some time to update in this case.

Hey Reddit, how do I start drinking alcohol again ? (details inside)
Hey ! When I was 16, I started having massive anxiety crises at parties and social gatherings, and due to that, I had to stop drinking alcohol there (I was never a heavy drinker). Indeed, drinking even a drop of beer would lead to immediate puking. Now I'm 18, and I'm going to university in Scotland next September. Anxiety has almost entirely disappeared, but I haven't drank anything in two years, and I'm a bit frightened. But according to what I know and have been told about university life, I feel like drinking, even a tad bit, would help me socialize. Do you have tips, similar stories, objections,etc... to share so I know how to drink again ?

How do you make friends in online games?
I don't know how to make friends online....I hear people talk about WoW and how they've got scheduled raids or other online-social events and things like that, and it sounds kinda fun...I always try to play these games, but eventually lose interest because I'm out there all by myself, doing something lame and repetitive to build up my stats or something.... I just don't know how to meet people and get into a group of others to play online games with regularly... I used to, back when I played Ultima Online, like 15 years ago....I don't know what happened since then.....I have 0 friends on steam and no other online gaming friends. How do you do it?

Best way to shelter tax earnings in state pension?
So I worked as a city lifeguard all throughout high school and then worked for two years as a student employee for my state university. Both the lifeguard job and campus job paid into a state public employee retirement system. I am going into my junior year of school and would like to find a way to avoid having to work during the school year (due to increased workload, windfall from summer internship, need more time to seek career opportunities etc). The total value of the pension account is right around $2500. I know I can request a refund, but then I will be hit by income tax on the earnings + 10% penalty. Would it be possible to roll over the money into a Roth IRA and then turn around and make a qualified withdrawal for education purposes (tuition payment directly to school) to convert the entire $2500 balance without paying any taxes on it? Would this be wise? Edit: just realized how terrible of a title that was for what I am really asking. I apologize in advance.

Weird white-tipped flap of gum over my wisdom tooth... what is this? Very painful and sore.
This appeared out of nowhere a few days ago... it's been a rough week. Last weekend I had a four-day fever and yesterday I went to an internal medicine doctor because I still felt like crap and after some chest x-rays it turns out I have a bad case of bronchitis. I asked him about my weird gum thing and he said he's just a piece of gum that will fall off naturally because of my wisdom tooth coming in. It hurts so much though that I'm doubting his opinion. Here are the pictures: Any help trying to figure this out would be greatly appreciated. Should I go to a dentist asap or ride it out? Edit: Here is another image!

My, uh, semi daily paradoxplaza challenge. [CK2] [Victoria 2]
Sorry I missed a day. You get two challenges today to make for it! I may need to make it a weekly thing, I will have problems thinking up challenges at this rate. Anyway, the first challenge is very difficult and interesting, and one I am glad to report that I have mostly completed to the max, in one of my funnest and most challenging CK2 game ever. The challenge of ...... HERETIC BRITTANY! Global Rules: You must remain independent, you must become a catholic heresy within a hundred years, you may not change your culture. Start at 1066. Level 1) Just play the game. Hard enough as it is. Good luck. Level 2) Survive a full game. Still incredibly difficult. Level 3) Form the empire of Britannia, destroy or usurp the French throne. Pics from my heretic Brittany game! (Sorry for no in-progress pics, I lost them) Gold and alliances are key to winning this. Keep those near you bribed or allied to make them less likely to attack you. Other powers may even help you in your holy wars! Declare several against the same time - no reason to fight people you aren't taking land from. Use Mercs. The next challenge is for Victoria 2, and may be even harder. Play as Mongolia, the sub-state of the Chinese Empire. I have tried this and tried this, to no avail. Global rules - no releasing Mongolia before you play. You must start as Mongolia and not much around by playing as any other nation. You can use any of the standard mods, like A Pop divided. 1)Play as Mongolia and lose no territory. Will probably involve helping the Chinese fight the Russians. 2) Play as Mongolia and become independent, and lose no territory. 3) Play as Mongolia and annex at least three provinces from either China, or Russia. SuperUltraMaxFun - I Will Worship you as a Grand Strategy God if you pull this off - challenge: Play as Mongolia. Bring the Mongol empire back to or beyond the state it was at the death of Ghengis Khan(From the Caspian Sea to the Pacific, most of Northern China). If by some madness you pull that challenge off, be sure to take lots of in progress pics so I can believe that you actually did it without cheating. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. You will be my hero if you do this. Do it. You know you want to.

Question on spacing between turntable and receiver
For the time being I have no place to put my table other than on top of my receiver. I know it's frowned upon, but it's the only way I can have it at the moment. My question is what the recommended amount of spacing between the table and receiver is. Right now there's about an inch of space between the two (using empty cigarette packs as little stands) and the table will get a littler warm if on for an extended amount of time. Is an inch enough of a gap to let the receiver properly breathe or should I keep building up? Here's a picture for good measure Thanks for taking the time to help me out

Title says it all. You don't *have* to pick up others' trash but you *can* make the trails better. And that adds to the awesomeness of the experience. If you need to, you may want to bring a glove or another plastic bag to pick things with. Gap bag because of the ties on top make it easier.

Is there any app that allows sending audio from calls to laptop via bluetooth?
I work from my laptop a lot, so I was wondering: is there any app (from cydia or windows) that allows me to use the microphone and speakers from laptop with my iPhone using bluetooth? thank you. **UPDATE:** After updating my bluetooth drivers (atheros chipset) I was able to use my laptop's speakers and mic. It is important to sync your iphone with your laptop, after that, it should be able to place calls from your laptop and even dial numbers from your iphone's address book. The bluetooth window it should look like this, also, you should check if your iphone is synced correctly, you can find it after selecting it from bluetooth devices and click on properties, then click on services, if you see a lot of services like dial-up and address book access or something like it, you're good to go

What do you guys think will look nice with the new Total War items?
I loaded up the new miscs and a couple of the new Total War hats in itemtest. I love that new Medic misc, but the only hat I can think to go with it would be the Team Captain. Picklehaube goes good to, but I don't like the look of the Picklehaube that much. The new Spy misc looks amazing too, although Spy doesn't have many fitting hats for it. I think a Charmers Chapeau looks great with it, and the Mullet is almost obvious. As for the Demo cape, the crown is a obvious match. Though I'm gonna end up wearing a Glengarry Bonnet with it and that doesn't look to bad. Any ideas? EIDT: I guaranteed you the World Traveler's Hat will be a perfect match on the Medic and Spy suits.

Anyone Else Have Heart Palpitations From Anxiety?
Hey guys, I am a 20 year old male who has dealt with anxiety disorder my whole life. Since I was around 15 I have experienced heart palpitations where my heart will skip a beat. It does it about once a day or every two days unless I am feeling anxiety even more in my life. Recently my anxiety has resurfaced somewhat and so has the heart palpitations. I have gotten an EKG and it turned up normal but still having the feeling of a sharp pain and my chest caving in is really scary. It's hard to tell myself that this is a "normal" symptom of anxiety, I mean after all it has happened about once a day for five or so years. I was just wondering if anyone else has them as frequently as I do and any advice? I guess I need some reassurance because it always leaves me feeling out of control.

Going through a church split
Sorry, I just need to process. I am the pastor of a smallish, soon to be smaller church in Australia. I am just coming to terms with the fact that a man who has been an elder in the church has not only been actively undermining me for the last year but has now also effectively orchestrated a split in our congregation. The way it is happening is just getting me down. Rather than get it over and done with he has people coming one at a time every couple of days to say that they are leaving. It feels like every time i start healing and sensing my faith building someone comes along and tries to push me down again. I know the church is full of imperfect people and I am very imperfect. I have my weaknesses but surely that is part of being part of a team. I hate the lack of grace being shown and the fact that the way this is being done means that there is no room for me to move or work to solve the differences. These people aren't even coming back to say goodbye to the people they have been supposedly caring for and ministering to. It is moments like this when I understand why people give up on the institutional church but i can't walk away even though my heart is really aching. I couldn't do it to the people I lead. I keep vacillating between quoting the imprecatory psalms and knowing I need to find a way to begin the forgiveness process and it is doing my head in. On top of that I need to stand up tomorrow and find a way to speak hope to those that remain knowing full well more will probably go without even letting me know. I know Jesus is in all this somewhere but I am blowed if I can see him at the moment. Life is just tough. tldr: pastor struggling with a church split **Update** Thank you for the stories and sympathy. Yesterday went about as well as could be expected. People are still leaving at the rate of one every two days or so (helps keep the wound nice and fresh I guess). I think people came out of the service with a sense that the next period will be tough but we will get through it. We will trust Jesus to build his church and focus on doing the things he asks us to do.

Older Redditors, at what point did you settle or give up?
I am in my 20s and I am just curious as to when it is you stopped dreaming and had to accept the soul crushing reality that it was never going to happen. Please describe the circumstances that led to this realisation. Did you realise you were too old, not as brilliant as you thought etc.? I am not talking about giving up because of low self esteem, but because realistically it's impossible e.g. 'I am too old to start a professional sports career now.' EDIT - Thanks for all your input, I think that I maybe shouldn't have used the words settle and give up, it makes people feel like quitters. I only asked the question because I hear people talk of how having children changed things or how at a certain age, even a young age, you are too old for certain careers (modelling, sports). I perhaps should have asked 'At what point did your dreams become more realistic?' Again, thanks for the replies everyone.

Stomach is bloating after work out. Help
Last Monday I started working out with a friend (currently a UConn football player) who helped me start a workout routine. The next day, he made me do a lot of upper body work out (abs, chest, arms, back, etc.) The hardest workout for me were the abs. After being sore the next day with limited moving range, I saw that my stomach is starting to get bigger and bloated. At this point, I've been consuming around 1000-1500 calories a day and drinking lots of water. up to this day, my stomach is still swollen and big while the rest of my body is still the same size. Also, my stomach is not tendered like it used to be before I started working out. It is rather floppy and loose. The shirts that I used to wear two weeks ago are now a bit tight on me :( Any information on why this is happening would be appreciated!!

Why are dimes smaller than pennies and nickels? [US Currency]
I feel like most currencies have a system where the size of the coin is a function of it's worth. Is it determined by the metals from which they are forged? Long story short I was putting away some change in the little compartments of the center console of my car, which are in order from largest to smallest. It goes 'quarter nickel pennie dime'. It sparked my interest needless to say. Simple question and I'm sure there's a simple answer. I guess another question might be: Why don't we make all of our coins out of the same material?

Faust and the Eternal-Feminine
Spoilers ahoy. At the very end of Part II of Faust, Faust seems to be rescued and is lead into heaven by the soul of Gretchen. The Chorus Mysticus attributes his salvation to "the Eternal-Feminine". I've always wondered: what is this eternal-feminine? Is it Gretchen's love? Or is it his final acceptance that striving (eg reclaiming land, building the castle) is his elusive happiness? Here's the German text (this is the Chorus Mysticus speaking after Doctor Marianus): >Alles Vergangliche >Ist nur ein Gleichnis; >Das Unzulangliche, >Hier wird's Ereignis; >Das Unbeschreibliche, >Hier ist's getan; >Das Ewig-Weibliche >Zieht uns hinan. And in English (trans Kaufmann): >What is destructible >Is but a parable; >What fails ineluctably, >The undeclarable, >Here it was seen, >Here it was action; >The Eternal-Feminine >Lures to perfection.

On tact and tattoos...what to do when you see a really bad one that's obviously new
A little while ago I was in my local grocery store and the cashier (a lady in her late 40s) had a chest piece that was obviously pretty new, of a fairy. It was pretty sizable...about 8 inches wide and 4 inches tall. It was....awful. Like seriously bad. I said "Did you get that done locally?" (live in a small place with 3 shops). She said yes, and was very proud of it, exclaiming the name of the shop and the artist, and saying that he doesn't do tattoos, he does "Matt-oos" (his name being "Matt") because of his personal style. I thanked her and congratulated her on getting her first tattoo and left. I couldn't tell her that it was a mess. I still wonder if I did the right thing. Clearly there was more work to be done on it and explaining how bad it was might stop her and allow her to get a decent artist to correct or cover up. What would you do?

Can someone give me a run through of the Total War series and which might be best for me?
I'm interested in the Total War series though I have never played any of them. I don't want to spend so much so I don't want to buy the whole pack, maybe just one of the titles. I've seen some discussion regarding the series changing throughout the titles so could anyone give me an idea which titles have what kind of gameplay? I believe Shogun is the latest one however I'm not sure if I would like the setting of feudal Japan as much as the other titles. Even though samurai are really cool. I would be playing the games mostly for the tactical combat but I would also be interested in any empire building gameplay as I do play some 4X strategy games. Any tips?

Insulated rain shell, or poncho?
Basically I'm wondering whether or not i should spend the $100 on a very nice insulated, water resistant outer shell I found at a local reatil store, or just cheap out and use my acrylic/wool sweatshirt and a standard rain poncho over top. The cheaper option is obviously cheaper and I would also let me wear something rainproof while not sweating my ass off. I could also wear the sweatshirt without the poncho. Anyway, I just want some input on whether or not the $100 shell is worth it and how necessary a hard-core outer shell is. $100 isn't a LOT of money, but i'd rather not spend it if i don't have to.

You should try some kava tea!
I probably should preface this by saying I don't expect this to fix anyone's anxiety disorder. Also when I had the tea I was not experiencing strong anxiety symptoms. I bought some kava tea and put in a dosage of some "axiet-ease" from mothers market. I have an anxiety disorder so I never really feel relaxed. Im afraid of SSRIs because when I was clinically depressed they increased my suicidal thoughts. After I took the tea I felt great. It felt like peter from office space when he got hypnotized. Again I'm not trying to say this is a cure or anything, but for me it was a nice once in a while break from being stressed. Edit 2/29/12: Just incase someone finds this later I stopped taking kava maybe a week after this post after a small depressive episode. Be careful for those of you who suffer from depression!

Reddit, my Dad has had a hernia for twelve years and refuses to get it looked at. How can I convince him how important this is to me?
Sup Reddit. I love my Dad, he's a wonderful and very intelligent man, but he is ridiculously lazy about a lot of things, and doesn't like to face problems at all - he likes to think that if he ignores things, they will go away. Hernias run in his family. His father and younger brother both had them and had them removed. My brother, 25, has one and is getting it operated on this summer (he owes a lot to his girlfriend being a nurse). My father has one right at the space where his belly button *used* to be (totally looks like a giant outie now). It started showing when I was ten, and we've given him a few gentle reminders to get it looked at. My cousin, a doctor, told him some of the very harsh facts about hernias, but I feel like my mother and sister and I don't express just how upset we are about it because we don't want to intimidate my Dad, who is the classic "stiff upper-lip/no emotion" type of Dad. He's gotten extremely lucky by nothing happening in twelve years, but I'm now at a point where I'm getting insanely worried. He's older, out of shape, and the other day we were chilling in the hot tub and I noticed it seemed even bigger, about the size of a kindergartener's fist (though I might have a skewed idea of that because I have tiny hands myself, but, well... you get the idea). I have a feeling that part of the reason he doesn't want to get it looked at is because he doesn't want to miss work. He's an engineer and I swear if you could have a legal binding marriage to a job he would get one to his. I just graduated university, though I'm living at home right now to save some money while I pay off my student loans. I'm the youngest and the only kid at home. My Mom tends to go about these things too aggressively, but I think if I figured out the correct way to approach it he might take me a bit more seriously. Any advice for how to talk to someone as shy and socially awkward as my Dad? As close as we are, we've never been the "big emotional talk" type of dad and daughter, and he's never even had a "big emotional talk" with my mother, so I don't know if just pouring my heart out about how worried I am about him is the correct approach. **TL;DR: My Dad has a hernia and likes to pretend it's not a problem, but I want him to get it taken care of. How can I talk to him about it without making him uncomfortable?**

Setting up a Fireworks document for mobile wireframes. Is it worth the effort?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to break an old bad habit of creating web wireframe mockups in Photoshop or Illustrator. The team and I are going to try a new mobile project in Fireworks. I am responsible for wireframe concepts, so the buck falls on me for getting it started.(None of us have worked extensively in Fireworks, but we're looking to improve our workflow) Ideally, the .png would be setup in the following way: * There are separate views for mobile browsing in both horizontal and vertical positioning * There are separate views for tablet browsing in both horizontal and vertical positioning * There are states(is this the correct one to use?) to show the entire mobile page, and to show the page in a mask to replicate the device's viewport. * Each different device(mobile, tablet, others) has multiple page levels(homepage, parent, child). Now, ideally I'd create this in one all inclusive .png, but from what i've learned it may make more sense to have one .png for each device. Does anyone have experience with this approach? Any guidance is appreciated. I'd also like to note, that this isn't necessarily a cry for help, but an open forum to discuss if you guys have found Fireworks to be a good asset for your work. Thanks, - Total fireworks noob

Bruichladdich Rocks was nasty.
I picked up a bottle of 'laddie rocks hoping it would be as inspired as the 12 year (it was also cheap). I couldn't stand it. I said "ooh fancy Bruichladdich packaging! I wonder what they did to this bottle." Other 'laddie releases commemorate the moon launch or organic golf courses or other cool things. This one is just about rocks, which are pretty epic. The thing they left off the packaging, the thing I only realized when I took a sniff of the bottle is this: rocks is finished in french red wine barrels. This means the scotch tastes like red-wine-candy. It is horribly sweet and the sugary wine flavors totally overwhelm everything. Only in the long aftertaste can you get whiffs of more common scotch flavors grasping for attention, like a shy kid in the back of the class who has the answer, but can only mumble. Diluted to half-strength, the bottle is much more palatable, though still tastes pretty sweet. I guess I'll save this one for guests. More tasting details

Issues with Cyborg RAT 7 mouse drivers
So, I have had the Cyborg RAT 7 gaming mouse for a while. The hardware is really nice, and for the most part it works in conjunction with my Razer Blackwidow. However, there is a major problem that is making my experience with Lion and Mountain Lion pretty awful. I am now going to list all of the information I know about the incident: - Computer does not respond to any sort of input except for cursor position for approximately ten minutes after it starts up. - Computer DOES respond immediately after startup if you VNC into it from another computer. - Once computer starts responding, there is a very bizzare but experience-ruining bug with the drivers. It's kind of hard to describe, but it seems like there is a problem with the hover ability of the cursor. A good way I can illustrate this is with an FPS such as Team Fortress 2. You can't move the character's head around unless you are also holding the left click button. The exact same issue is experienced in Ubuntu by another person: Also, I am using the most recent Mac Mini. It is the higher end model with a 2.5 GHz i5 and an AMD graphics card. A couple of months I remember fixing this problem with that blog post. I had to convert the instruction to the Mac OS X equivalent. But, for the life of me, I can't remember what utility allows you to map buttons like you can in xorg.conf. If someone could guide me in the right direction, it would be great.

Wow. Day 40 of NoFap. Got some action last night. Now fighting chaser effect. A couple of questions.
Okay long story short. Convinced a few of my friends last night to drive 20km into the city for me to chase some tail. My chase put me on the runaround so I texted her and told her she was a dick for doing that. Send the text, look up and see a gorgeous girl, I tell her that i think shes gorgeous, she does a double take and comes back, we chat for about 30mins about stuff, get a taxi back to her place, go at it until 11am this morning. Blew my load. Now have massive chaser effect. Fighting the urge to fap like no tomorrow. This scenario would have never happened prior to NoFap. First question i have is do i have to reset my counter because i had sex? I definitely had an orgasm so is this a technicality? I dont want to reset as im quite stoked I got to day 40 so far but the number is of no relevance long term anyway..... Thoughts and tips much apppreciated :)

Edit: would it be possible to split the idea of number2 into two concepts. The first the mere physical grouping of objects, which gives no information as to what the number two entails and how it stands in relation with anything else.The second the metaphysical idea of the number two which carries with it the all the entailment of two and all the relations of two.

(Idea) A different biome system.
Having seen the threads upon threads about the broken biomes and all the seeds being the same, I propose a new and improved system for biomes: You have the normal biomes, and you have the rare biomes. The normal biomes are: swamp, plains, snow (A new snow biome that's hilly with plains and has pine trees with no flowers or tall grass (The old snow biomes are gone.)), deserts, oceans, rivers (Registered as biomes in the code.), mushshroom islands, and hills. (Not extreme hills/mountains; just small hills). The rare biomes are different because they only 1 of each gen per 1,000,000 blocks (Maybe. I'd like feedback on that.). The rare biomes are: mountains/extreme hills (The current ones with arches and things like that.), swamps and forests with tall trees, oceans with underwater ruins, and mushroom continents (Absurdly rare, have different mini biomes.). (No rivers or snow because I can't think of anything.) Image of rare swamp: Ideas from viewers: ouTPhaze "No. The current system is perfect, if anything, we need sliders to raise and lower frequency, and more kinds of biomes." Perfect, except the part about not liking it. Options are what the miners and crafters like! You could have this be an option.

What are some good bike maintenance tips/habits?
I've just recently acquired my first road bike, and I really don't know what there is to do, besides oiling the chain, in terms of maintenance. What are some pre/post-ride and regular things that you guys like to do to make sure your bike is in tip-top shape?

Need a non-bean chili recipe
All recipes I've seen for slow cookers involve beans. I don't care for beans especially in chili. I haven't really seen a chili recipe. Would like a really good one.

I'm heading to LA for a few days, what should I eat?
I know, there's a million threads by people like me asking what they should do when they visit LA. But I want to know what I should eat. Not which restaurants are good or anything like that. I searched this subreddit and didn't find much, but if this is an old question a link would really be appreciated. What dish (or type of dish) would you recommend as the LA-iest dish for someone visiting for the first time?

Looking for a surfactant which is liquid at room temperature. Help!
Hi! I am looking for any organic compounds which are liquid at room temperature and have really low surface tension values and not too low vapour pressure at STP. Most commercial surfactants have long hydrophobic chains which mean fairly low vapour pressure values. The best I have been able to come up with until now is tetradecafluorohexane which has a surface tension of ~11.9 dyne/cm2. Please help! Thanks!!

[USA] [H] Release Date Xbox360 || [W] any white xbox with HDMI cabability
I recently got a tv and pretty much all the inputs are HDMI, the only component spot is taken by my PS2. Looking to make some sort of deal to trade just the console part. What I mean by that is that I just want to trade the bare bones white BOX its self for another with an HDMI port. Shouldn't have to trade cables since both parties should have them, but if don't have component cables, we can work something out. Pm if interested. Can wheel and deal __________________ As far as how stable the console is, I had a another console that RROD twice. Microsoft replaced it like 4 years ago with this conosole (COMPLETELY DIFFERENT), have had 0 problems and it works like new. Albiet unlikely, I will include wireless adapter if someone offers a slim

I'd like to make a defense of my comment that the premier league shouldn't be called the EPL
I got heavily down voted in this thread After saying that it's important to call the premier league, the prem, the premier league or the british equivalent rather than the American abbreviation which is commonly used here; the EPL. This is likely to be downvoted again but I'm not too bothered by Karma so eh! As a British sports fan I refer to all leagues in the way that those who live in them pronounce them. La Liga is la liga, Seria A is sirya??, the Eridvese you get my drift. The only one that I don't really adhere to is Ligue 1 which I'll call Ligue one rather than un. Now why do I think calling a league by its proper name is important? Because it keeps the identity of the league solely with the culture that has built it. The three letter abreviation that the American's are so fond of makes said league akin to one of the American leagues and in turn, takes away from many of the things that should be associated with said league. The American leagues are not the same as the European leagues, they are a group of franchises which is so far detached from the football league that I know and treasure so dearly. Barcelona (no matter what you think of them) have the motto 'more than a club'. My history may get me wrong here but this was because they formed a hub for democracy and freedom against dictator franco when he was in power, now I don't see any franchises having that sort of motive behind them. A lot of you will say, 'Arsenal are owned by an American, there are very similar wages and league structures and goals (titles) in both so what are you talking about?' Well Arsenal and football in general is a sport that has been around well before the money and owes its current existance to community (like here on reddit), history and loyalty. That last point is so key to football and Arsenal and is something that more and more, by money and other is being tarnished. You can't change your team from Arsenal to another, if you support Arsenal you support Arsenal to the end, the club will not upsticks and move (like they do in America) and you can't either. By chosing to support a club like Arsenal you could just to enjoy some good football and the chance at a trophy, but to think of it as a team in a league which is similar in its core beliefs to those in America is wrong. The great concepts behind the club and the differences between the American franchise system and the prem should be realised and embraced and to not do so is a travesty. So I again say that calling the prem the American form 'EPL' is wrong, shouldn't be used and should be changed by all on here.

Can we please type in English on /r/india?
Not everyone in India speaks Hindi, almost everyone on this website speaks English. Also speaking in romanized Hindi is confusing and looks really bad. I know I'm going to get a lot of shit for this but it needs to be said.

How do you utilize Mordekaisers clone efficiently?
Hey I've just recently picked up Mordekaiser, and although I like him a lot and am getting good results with him, I still feel that I can't make much from getting a ghost via the ultimate. Most of the times, I die shortly after because of the ghost not doing anything or me mismicroing the ghost. Is there any way to let the clone attackmove? Is it common that a melee clone doesn't really do a lot compared to a ranged one? Are there any general things about pet handling you can give, considering that I have never played a champion with a pet mechanic. Thank you a lot in advance for potential respones.

The Most Fun I Had In Elementary School Was Harry Potter Based
When I was in 4th-5th grade, the first thing that me and my equally Harry Potter addicted stepbrother would do was grab a red marker and draw a quick lightning scar on each other's foreheads. Then, we would go outside, break a stick off of a tree, whittle it down with a pocket knife, and then go to the backyard and have wizarding duels. Much fun was had those days.
