Placebo and the delicious delicious flavor. Also coffee, which is delicious.
But while you may say it doesn't work anymore, I get a mean headache if I don't consume. It's a vicious cycle, but I don't care.

I also lose to aggro/face decks because it has no taunts and is in the end super reliant on drawing shield blocks to give you the life total until they run out of steam/you have enough mana for your combo, so it's a toss-up at best. I lose to Druids because I don't have enough silences to clear his threats and have one left to remove his taunt for the combo. I lose to freeze mage because it's a warrior deck and ice block wrecks high damage sources. It's not a random deck either, it was featured. I have no idea how it's supposed to be actually good, although brawls would help against aggro (but not the others I mentioned who don't flood the board anyway). I still feel the same way about Oil Rogue even though I've finally won a couple games with it lol.
Seriously, just watch Ryzen play it. He's been streaming it every night for the last 3 or 4 days. Having 2xPreparation is 100% mandatory I think.

Be like Scip. Only drink apple juice. One day you'll have to actually wake up for something important regularly. You'll figure it out then. edit - I almost said scip would have to do the same, but we all know Euros don't actually work In my line of work doing breeding bird surveys I've had to wake up at 4:00 in the morning 12 days in a row for work before getting a weekend off. I and some other coworkers did this without consuming any variety of caffeine. I had to go to bed at 7:45 in the evening though to make it work.
Well, right. Fuck that. I generally get to bed at or around midnight.
edit - Also, 1+1 pls (@community)

Hercules was known for his cunning as well as the ability to punch mountains into pebbles. I dunno if they have you read Frankenstien in your school, but the Monster in the original story (not the movies) was intelligent to the point that he learned how to read, speak, and write in one year, and also was massive and killed things with his bare hands. The original Conan the Barbarian (published in 1930) was an brilliant warrior that read and wrote several languages and was a competent leader. Don't let Arnold fool you, there was a Conan before his. The Doc Savage books featured teams of scientists that went around punching bad guys in the face ~30 years before XMen, and were popular pulp books. Heck, The Incredible Hulk was fairly well the same idea and came out before XMen. The idea of a big, tough guy being intelligent but also able to kick people's teeth in is not something that Stan Lee and Jack Kirby came up with.
Realistically Ares was the god of war they only gave Athena the title because they wanted to get into her pants
frankenstein learning to speak and read and write isn't that impressive, though maybe for american highschool kids it is.
Incredible hulk was binary really smart-->really dumb
Conan might have been intelligent but more of a main character intelligent not an academic/genius type
don't know anything doc savage did tho
im not saying they came up with it, i mean beast is just the hulk if he could stay hulk and be normal, im just saying its quite rare as a thing
beast was the first one i really noticed and definitely the main example people might use

Or you could have a routine to wake up regularly without the aid of coffee 
I don't have room to talk, though. If I don't have my tea in the morning I'm positively cranky.

I get up 5:30-6:30am every day. Weekends it's like 7:30. So if anyone games that early on Saturdays, lemme know. I also am in bed by 10 every night barring a special occasion.
|
My fiancee is like a machine, I think I've only ever seen her sleep in past 8 or 9 on very special occasions. She'll wake up at 7 with no problem despite having been up past midnight the night before.
Meanwhile, I roll out of bed 15 minutes before work and go in late because I sleep through 6 of my 8 phone alarms

I spoke with the co-founder of OnePlus last week and he said they're gonna primarily be focusing on emerging markets (Middle East, LatAm, Asia) for 2015, which is a little bit disappointing. They want to do more work with carriers (contracts and cheaper pricing) but that might not happen for quite a while in the US.

Sorry, only 6
Regular alarms:
7:30
7:45
8:00 (also my regular bedside alarm goes off here)
You can still make it on time if you rush alarm:
8:15
You gonna be late alarm:
8:30
What are you doing with your life alarm:
9:00
Luckily I only live 10 minutes from work.
Edit: also I fucking hate this job so I don't care about being on time
|
I use the snooze button instead
|
I remember the days of the 9am work day. The good life. Used to play video games and lift before work. Then again I did that today but earlier...
|
Honestly I'd be fine waking up earlier and going to work at like 7:30 or 8 if it meant I could leave earlier. The only reason I'm up so late at night is because I feel like I don't have enough time by the time I leave work and do whatever (groceries, errands, phone calls, etc).

Or, ya know, just get out of bed with the first alarm.

Soooooo you got them connections to get me an invite, right???

I get up at 6 AM every day, no matter what happened the night before.
It's actually kind of a problem because if I'm up till 4 AM I still get up at 6 and can't go back to sleep, I just end up having a really shitty day.

In my experience getting up to alarms is heavily dependent upon habit. If you habitually ignore alarms you get better at ignoring alarms, and if you habitually get up to alarms you get better at getting up to alarms.

I was under the impression OnePlus is open sign-up now? And it's just first-come first-serve?

Yeah, I've just gotten into such a habit of shutting off/snoozing every alarm before 8:30. I'm a bit of a heavy sleeper, I don't even notice the first 2 or 3 sometimes.
I find that it's much easier to break the habit when I change other things in my sleep schedule. If I sleep sitting up (which also cuts down on my snoring, much to the Otter's joy), or if I sleep with the light on (like when I fall asleep reading), it's much easier to get up to the first alarm.

My cube buddy got one a few weeks ago. I dunno how he got it, but he's from India and still has family there, so if they're doing stuff in Asia he might have just had some connections in that regard.
