It definitely sucked at the time, but it also taught me some key lessons.
Like don’t assume a game is good because it comes in a nice box. Don’t assume a licensed IP means good gameplay. Read reviews, don’t just make a snap purchase.
It was a huge loss for me at the time but I feel like these lessons actually saved me quite a bit of money/frustration over the years.

Your comment is so accusatory and disingenuous.
You’re clearly missing my point intentionally.
And I have an eating disorder, so don’t start, bud.

Really who can say. But wheat, barely and rye all provoke the psoriasis to bloom so it makes the most sense to assume it’s the gluten. It could be something else that is common to all 3, but that seems to be a stretch when the most obvious explanation makes the most sense.

No I’m saying it was the 1st time my cock had seen direct sun
- Comment on Nutritional Hexes 4 days ago:
As much as I have spent way too much of my life becoming educated in this area, I’m not actually sure everybody has a definable trigger. After all, it is an autoimmune disorder. I guess I just found out that I’m one of the lucky ones that has figured out what provokes mine.
For anybody that has suffered, also be aware that a universal trigger for psoriasis sufferers is anything with blue/purple dye. They are safe for external use, but psoriasis is broken skin which makes it introduce directly into the bloodstream, and the number one side effect of those dyes is eczema, psoriasis, and dry skin.

You seem to be conflating 2 different things.
There’s the mechanism which is excess calorie intake v expenditure, and then there’s the reasons for the excess calorie intake. It’s dangerous to blend these because doing so mostly platforms excuses and denial of personal responsibility among obesity sufferers.

The one that had me cry-laughing was the “sun your genitals” fad that lasted what, a week?
I lost a ton of weight and that gave me the courage to go to the nude beach. That day I got exactly 30 seconds of sun on my cock and that was enough to sunburn my knob. Itch/burn for days. There’s a reason it’s known as *where the sun don’t shine". Can’t imagine what it was like for the dopes that gave themselves 15 minutes under the Cali sun.
- Comment on Nutritional Hexes 4 days ago:
Yes we agree.
My psoriasis has gone from looking like my joints/hands were covered in dried stucco to being baby smooth.
If I eat wheat (barley flour seems to be the worst for me actually) the psoriasis will return almost immediately.
I saw my Dermatologist who delightfully concluded the IR treatments were working. I had to break her heart and tell her its was the gluten all along. She was crestfallen and sputtered some crappy self-soothing remark like “oh I guess everyone’s different”. My non-verbalized thought was “you call yourself a dermatologist and you’re apparently unaware that diet can influence autoimmune disorders”.
- Comment on Nutritional Hexes 4 days ago:
I don’t eat gluten because it provokes my auto immune disorder and makes my psoriasis bloom.
25 years of doctors telling me that diet cannot influence the condition(s) while prescribing progressively more intense medications. They would sarcastically smirk when I asked… Ohohoho silly patient why would you ask such a dumb question. Not just GPs but Dermatologists too.
I found out by accident when I taught myself to cook and accidentally cut out wheat and barley.
Lots of people are intolerant but don’t realize. Many people realize and cut it out of their lives, then have to deal with the sarcasm/cynicism/ignorance of others.

- Comment on What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone? 1 week ago:
I spent almost two decades as a game developer and many of those years were spent developing professional lottery products.
I argued with a buddy for over 5 years about the gamblers fallacy and various other aspects to do with probabilities.
See, in his mind, he could somehow claim to understand the underlying statement that past events are not a predictor of future events… but he’s still insisted that if he monitored the patterns, he could somehow break through this truth.
I could never get through to him that there was no system. You’re just fucking gambling dude. Zero progress… and I refused after a while to discuss anything to do with probabilities.
- Comment on For the love of the game... 1 week ago:
You know dude, I’ve been there myself.
My sister’s been there, my whole family’s been there, I dated a gastroenterologist for 7 years, I created a computer-based training program which was first year medical-level for a research drug for reflux.
This dude’s just driving the conversation down to the basest, most surly Facebook boomer-esque sniping. It’s completely obnoxious, it misrepresents the actual medical facts behind the symptoms and treatment. One line cynical statements are just thought terminating and I detest them.
- Comment on For the love of the game... 1 week ago:
Your redundant comments feel like some sort of anti-intellectual flex.
- Comment on For the love of the game... 1 week ago:
Ulcers, occasional reflux, and GERD are different things.
This man’s research specifically centered around ulcers and the cause.
- Comment on For the love of the game... 1 week ago:
This guy ingested H. Pylori to prove ulcers are caused by bacteria

20+ years ago Colgate bought and shelved a patent for an antibacterial mouthwash that only targeted bacteria that erode enamel.
- Comment on Is trying weed edibles worth it? 1 week ago:
Weed can completely and irreversibly damage a developing brain. Wait until you’re at least 26 before you fuck with THC.

“care deeply about Windows”
Fuck face… Not one person cares deeply about Windows… We just want this giant shit heap of bloated code to respect BASIC user needs.

Dude’s not going to be burning anything out, his furnace can’t even adequately ventilate his house as it is right
- Comment on How to find a fan that blows 90° from intake? 3 weeks ago:
Get Styrofoam blocks and plug vents seasonally. In summer plug the downstairs ones so AC feeds upstairs and drifts down, opposite in winter to make air heat the lower levels and slowly rise.

My buddy called-in Sportchek when they were advertising skis for like $900 but “marked down” to 200! They had to stop that practice as a result of his report.

This, minus the Laugh Often applique is basically VR people
- Comment on How do you fight doomerism/pessimism in these trying times? 2 months ago:
Disengage.
The amount of doomer shit you intake is directly proportional to time spent online listening to the opinions of imbeciles.
So basically walk away.
