Ghost Fruity Cereal Milk protein is my new favorite

I've been trying my way through all the Ghost Whey flavors. I finally picked up Fruity Cereal Milk without expecting much and WOW I was blown away.

It smells just like those strawberry wafers you get at the grocery store, and it tastes like Fruity Pebbles. It's easily my favorite flavor so far.

Here's how I'd rank the ones I've tried:

  1. Fruity Cereal Milk
  2. Chips Ahoy! (very close second)
  3. Lucky Charms
  4. Trix
  5. Count Chocula
  6. Cinnabon (it was okay)
  7. Nutter Butter (wasn't a fan)

What do yall think? What are your favorites? I am hoping one day Ghost will partner with Captain Crunch! 😆

Why is Tristram's dungeon so massive?

Why is Tristram's cathedral/catacombs so freaking huge? I've been playing D2 for years since it came out 2000 and absolutely love the game, but I never really got deep into D1 because it used to petrify me as a kid. I have vivid memories of having nightmares from The Butcher. Not sure why I was playing it at 7-8 years old but here we are...

One thing that's always fascinated me is the sheer size of the dungeon beneath Tristram. Why are the cathedral, catacombs, caves, and hell levels so massive? Was it always there, or did something create/expand it after Diablo arrived?

Also, what's the deal with the portal to Hell? Is it an actual gateway to Hell beneath Tristram, or more of a corruption caused by Diablo being there? I'd love if someone could explain the lore behind all of this. The atmosphere of Diablo I is incredible, and now that I'm older I'm finding myself way more interested in the story than I ever was as a kid. I could probably just do a google search but I'd love to hear yall's explanations. :)

Moving to the Philippines: How Do You Keep Your Butt Dry?

I'll be moving to the Philippines permanently early next year, and I'm curious how long-term expats deal with the humidity.

How do you deal with, pardon my French, swamp a**?

When I've visited before, I was using Gold Bond powder and it helped for a little while, but nothing that seemed like a long-term solution. I'm not some obese guy either, I'm fairly fit, 34YO, around 5'11" and 180 lbs. I work out several times a week and normally don't sweat excessively, but Philippine humidity apparently takes that as a personal challenge. Within minutes of being outside, my butt, groin, and thighs are fighting for their lives. 😅 It feels like I'm drenched almost immediately.

Meanwhile, I'll see a local casually walking around in a hoodie, sweatpants, and a jacket, sipping a hot coffee, looking completely comfortable while I'm over here questioning whether humans were meant to contain this much moisture.

I was showering multiple times a day when I was there, which helped temporarily, but I'm wondering if there are any tricks, products, clothing brands, powders, underwear, routines, etc. that longtime expats or locals use to manage it.

Does your body eventually adapt after living there for a while, or is it just something you learn to live with?

Would appreciate any advice from people who've been through the adjustment.

Cautiously optimistic about ILL

I'm cautiously optimistic about ILL, but I'm trying to keep my expectations in check.

Aside from the dodgy and strange dialogue, a lot of the footage they've shown looks almost too good. Some scenes genuinely look like pre-rendered cinematics rather than actual gameplay.

The concept, atmosphere, and body horror all look fantastic, but we've seen plenty of games over the years show off incredible trailers that ended up being very different from the final product. I hope I'm wrong because if even 80% of what they've shown is representative of actual gameplay, ILL could end up being one of the best horror games in years. What are yall's thoughts? Do you all think it was actual gameplay or are we being duped again like "The Day Before" did to us on steam?

People who take up multiple parking spots are the worst

People who take up multiple spots in an already full parking lot drive me insane. I don't care how nice your car is if the lot is packed, you're just making everyone else's day harder because you think you're special. Absolute selfish behavior. Every week finding a spot for the gym is a nightmare because of people like this.

Be nice to the strays, they will never forget you

If you're in the Philippines, or really anywhere that has a lot of stray dogs, be kind to them and I promise you it will go a long way!

Not all strays are friendly, obviously, and you should always be careful. But most of the ones I've come across are good dogs. They're usually just wary of people because a lot of people ignore them or treat them poorly.

If you're walking around an area where they're common, bring a few treats or snacks with you. It doesn't cost much, and can easily make a friend for life.

If a stray or pack of strays gets to know you, they remember your scent. I've had strays recognize me days, weeks, or months later. And if you end up befriending a dog or a pack that hangs around the area, they'll often keep an eye on you. I've seen them follow people home, chase off aggressive dogs, and bark at sketchy people getting too close. They will ALWAYS have your back.

They're not all cuddly and they're not all safe to approach, but most of them are just dogs trying to get by. A little kindness goes a long way. Same goes for cats too! Anyway that's my PSA.

I don't care about politics and I'm tired of people making everything about it.

I don’t know if I’m the only one who feels this way, but I’m so exhausted by politics being injected into every aspect of life now. Whether someone is Democrat or Republican, when people make politics their entire personality it becomes draining to be around. You can’t go anywhere without hearing “Dems did this.” “Republicans ruined that.”

Family gatherings, hanging out with friends, social events, someone always brings up politics and completely kills the vibe. It feels like nobody can just exist in the moment anymore without turning everything into a debate or ideological argument. I genuinely don’t understand the mindset of wanting every conversation to revolve around political points 24/7. It’s exhausting.

I’m not even saying people shouldn’t care about politics. Obviously it matters. But when every conversation, every event, and every interaction becomes politically charged, it just becomes mentally exhausting. Sometimes I just want to exist for a few hours without hearing why one side is evil and the other side is destroying America.

What's with all the flat sodas?

Ive been in the Philippines for several months now and something I notice is that any kind of soda that comes from restaurants almost always is flat or goes flat after like 5 minutes. Especially when you go to a place and they have the cups with the flimsy plastic wrap overtop. Its guaranteed to be flat. Canned or bottled drinks are fine. But anytime otherwise its flat.

Is it just the climate? Maybe the high humidity causes it to go flat fast? I guess its a good thing because of it I only get bottled water now when I go out. 😂

"It's so easy to be great nowadays because most people are weak." [Story]

I let myself go for a few years and by December I had hit over 210 lbs. I know for some people that’s a goal, but for me, someone who had never been over 185, it honestly crushed my mental health. I didn’t feel like myself anymore.

Around that time I started listening to David Goggins. Hearing him talk about discipline, suffering, and pushing past limits really hit something in me. One quote especially stuck with me:

“It’s so easy to be great nowadays because most people are weak.”

That mindset changed me. A lot of people quit when things get uncomfortable. They don’t push the extra mile, the extra set, the extra rep. I realized I had become one of those people, and I didn’t want to stay that way.

So in December I made a decision: the 210-pound version of me wasn’t who I was going to be anymore.

Since then I’ve been in the gym 5 days a week. Pushing harder. Going farther. Holding myself accountable even on the days I don’t want to. Funny enough, I don’t even listen to music when I train anymore. I listen to motivational speeches and quotes. That stuff keeps me locked in mentally.

Today I’m back down to 184 and honestly feel better than I have in years. Stronger physically, but more importantly mentally.

If anyone out there is looking for motivation, just know this: you’re capable of way more than you think. Everybody has greatness in them. The real question is how badly do you want it?

Stay hard.

How terrible of a king would Viserys Targaryen be?

Viserys gets memed on a lot for obvious reasons, but I’ve always wondered how bad of a king he actually would’ve been if he successfully returned to Westeros.

Let’s say Khal Drogo actually agrees to cross the Narrow Sea with the full khalasar. Or maybe Viserys somehow finds another army. Or maybe those people who "drink secret toasts to your health” claim was actually true and tons of Targaryen loyalists rally to him once he lands.

He’s clearly unstable, entitled, paranoid, and obsessed with respect. But at the same time, the guy spent his entire childhood watching his family dynasty collapse, living homeless in exile, and growing up believing the throne was stolen from him. He’s basically a walking pile of trauma and delusions about destiny.

How terrible of a king would Viserys realistically be? Would he be worse than Joffrey?

Could Viserys have functioned as a decent king with strong advisors keeping him in check? Or was he doomed to become another Mad King no matter what?

Did Shireen’s sacrifice indirectly allow Jon to retake Winterfell?

We know how deplorable that scene was where Stannis and Melisandre sacrificed Shireen to the Lord of Light. Saw a comment from a post and was peaked my curiosity. You could see the scenes leading up to Shireen's death and how snow banked Stannis' army was, not far from Winterfell. The snow DID seem to melt and stayed melted for the most part leading into the Long Night.

If the snow had not melted, how successful would Jon and his army be at sieging Winterfell whilst snow banked? Or do we think Ramsay would still be bold enough to face them even with a blizzard blaring down on them? My guess is that Ramsay would hold up in Winterfell and beat Jon through attrition. Or maybe Jon doesn't even attack at all. How would the story change?

Give me your craziest butterfly effect in the show.

Give me your craziest “butterfly effect” scenario that completely changes the story, and explain exactly how it would play out.

It could be something super small or simple. Or big changes.

Examples: Ned accepting Renly’s offer after Robert dies.

Oberyn surviving the Mountain fight.

Catelyn never kidnapping Tyrion.

Stannis winning Blackwater.

How far do the dominoes fall? Who lives, who dies, and what major events never happen? I'm curious what theories everyone comes up with!

If Riot were to bring back omnistone how would they implement it? I know it was a super meme pick when it was a thing but I don't understand why they just abandoned it so suddenly. They could of just made it so you get like an empowered version (slightly empowered) of the rune you were on.

Recently returned to league (I know, probably a mistake) and I have been playing some Akali for the first time. Just here to glaze our girl and say she is probably the MOST fun I have had playing League in a very long time. Reignited my passion for the game. Her abilities and animations are SO fluid its just a very satisfying style, and pulling off a crazy combo just feels so nice. Anywho, that's all. :)
