How Luffy D. Monkey looks right before he’s about destroy the big bad guy in every arc.
- Comment on Anon is chasing an old high 2 days ago:
This is the biggest problem for games like these. It’s trying to capture the childhood nostalgia. But to any modern gamer it’s: FANTASY SETTING 319, of course it feels hollow and stale. Even if the designers are passionate about the game, it you set it in the same type of world as all your favorite final fantasy games or fire emblem or whatever you’re making a terrible setting for a new game. It may not be a bad game, but the world you chose is actively working against it by making it stale.
I mean, it’s going to be a problem forever. The way you break out of this is by having a good 'ol visionary developer who has a unique story to tell. Unfortunately for every one of those there’s a hundred passionate developers either trying to make a quick buck or who lacks the imagination/skills to make a transformative game.

Occasionally they throw in a “Frunch” as well just to keep historians on their toes.

Walk up with steel stilettos and a practiced kick and you might have a shot.
- Comment on Leo knew it was a joke and laughed because it was just a joke 5 weeks ago:
Idk, it seems worse that he’s self aware. Before it could be dumping these women because he gets some “ick” about them that he can’t explain. It turns out the ick is a deeply misogynistic fetishization of youth, but if he didn’t put any thought into it at least you could say he’s a toxic product of his culture.
If he’s aware of it then it’s something he could be working on and changing and he instead makes the active choice not to do anything about it.

Nostalgic for 2014 only because if I was out there with what I know now I would own life.
Not gonna listen to my 2034 self though, I don’t even know that guy.

I mean, you still “cussed”. Switching two letters around doesn’t change the meaning and the original word doesn’t hold any special powers.
I agree it’s not much to make a reply about.
I think the attitude stems from the view that using placeholder words for swear words is often associated with religious/puritanical attitudes since there’s not really a reason to do it so the user reacts as they would to puritanical people invading their community i.e. hostile.
I think that’s not as true today but that’s where the backlash comes from.
- Comment on The one drawback to walking at night 1 month ago:
Yeah, but what’s the point? Technically you can avoid all murder if you stay at home in your bathtub all day and never leave the house.
- Comment on The one drawback to walking at night 1 month ago:
I mean the honest reaction is if someone wants to stay home to not get murdered. Fine, I couldn’t care less and it’s stupid for me to have an opinion on that, you live your life.
But it’s a sort of catch 22 that you’ll only go outside if you can be sure the figures won’t change significantly and the only way to see if the figures change is to try going outside.
- Comment on Anon becomes a shrimp farmer 1 month ago:
No? He’s acquiring capital (land, shrimp farm equipment, shromps) and using his labor to create something (more shromps) and selling his product for a profit.
He owns the property, takes the investment risk, and keeps the profits. In theory he’s competing in a market with other shrimp sellers but like I said from the sound of it the market is pretty thin so he gets to sell for a huge profit.

Anon discovers basic capitalism and lucked into an underserved market.

Plastic lasts thousands of years, most of it lasts tens of thousands of years but blue plastic singlehandedly brings down the average.

I think the poaching was only mentioned cause it’s in vogue and it had to make the reader feel bougie.
- Comment on Putting the die in diet 1 month ago:
I think your math is off. At 3$/dozen 2 eggs a day is 1doz/6 days 30/6 =5 5x3 = 15$/month
The reason it hurts when egg prices go up is because eggs were (and are still) some of the most cost-effective protein (especially as a whole protein) you can buy and eggs are in everything.
- Comment on (They're not allowed to legally anymore) 1 month ago:
In theory they can, but when a trump backed federal government and law enforcement is breathing down their neck with implicit threats of court cases and funding cuts I wonder if a lot of places will want to do anything.

- Comment on moms rule 2 months ago:
Many people don’t realize that the amount of change our culture goes through in a lifetime is unfathomable historically. Before the 1800s it took a good decade for news to truly travel around to everyone in a region, and that was considered timely if it happened at all. Farming, hunting, homemaking, war, stayed exactly the same for dozens of years at a time and changes were usually made abruptly due to conflict before stagnating again.

Lmao you’re a fool. The meme was started by Chinese people you racist.
Just out here projecting your own racism into other situations because you’re the one who sees Pooh bear and thinks “that looks like one of those yellow squinty eyed people I see in China”.
- Comment on "Family Size" has no meaning anymore 2 months ago:
It looks like each enchilada +cheese sauce is like 500+ calories (I would bet closer to 700). All it needs is a small side to make a meal.
