- Comment on Trump tells Canadians to Elect the guy who'll make them the 51st State of US [Canadian elections today] 1 week ago:
No, it’s terrible. Your English is better than his. Just because there’s some sliver of sense doesn’t mean he even did it on purpose.
- Comment on Trump tells Canadians to Elect the guy who'll make them the 51st State of US [Canadian elections today] 1 week ago:
Commas can be used to identify parts of the sentence that can be cut out e.g. “… wisdom to cut your taxes in half … If Canada becomes the 51st state.”
Now, here, the comma was used for a list so it shouldn’t have been used that way but I’m sure his meth head brain probably got lost partway or the AI bot that mimics his speech patterns is just that dumb.
- Comment on How come id Software / Bethesda have never sued Bungie / Microsoft over the similarity between Doomguy and Master Chief? 1 week ago:
I think the only thing I remember about Reach is the last mission anyway but thanks for the heads up.

John Halo and the Marines are Marines and not Soldiers. Though, I’m not certain Halo ever shows a non-Navy Servicemember in 1-4.

That fact that you mention Three Houses make me think you mention that because you wanna bang your students.

This is terrifying to link to after what you just said
But they are great boobs and that’s what’s important. I do this not for me, but for us all.
- Comment on In heat 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, first part of any fresh Fox setup is changing the default search engine.
- Comment on Amazon is Canceling Orders After Tariffs Destroy Profits 2 weeks ago:
I cancelled my Prime in boycott (and brokenness) ages ago… And yet, my account still gets free shipping. My partner looks at the same item, shipping charges but for me it says “Free With Prime” yet I click on the free games or video and it says “Sign up for Prime.”
So, when we absolutely need to order something from them, I do it because it takes a little bit more from them.
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 2 weeks ago:
Because I’ve been using it for over 20 years?
- Comment on Can't Afford A Nintendo Switch 2? Buy A Switch 1, Nintendo Says - Insider Gaming 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, Microsoft had a similar stance around the Xbox One timeframe! It worked out great for them.
Just don’t talk about it, Nintendo, that’s a better PR strategy.

To be fair, a lot of those women were probably traumatized in the same wars their husbands were (for different reasons, obviously) so they probably trauma bonded.

We do not have a legal president and we don’t have a legal precedent for this case.

Those are over ear closed backs with thicc pads, no way are those going to be comfortable to one ear. Some Grados, maybe, but again the more important thing is hearing things in the room, not the game.
- Comment on Hardcore gaming 2 months ago:
You wanna be able to hear if your partner needs anything. Ear buds would at least mean that they can only put one in at a time.

I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don’t need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time…
But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It’s not like you’re in an extended stay. You’re getting that baby out and going. You don’t need all that.

It’s great value peanut butter. It is easier to clarify that as a semi solid oil than actual peanut butter. Feel free to be jealous but that’s not ‘good’ peanut butter. It’s better than nothing but only just.
- Comment on Hulu quizzing about the ads played 3 months ago:
I cancelled Prime over a year ago and for some reason I still get “Prime” delivery. I don’t get the games, movies, or Twitch stuff but if I order something it shows up faster than when my partner does.
So, I don’t hate that about Amazon… Everything else keeps me from ordering there unless there’s no other options.

Mr. Noodle, are you not familiar with the abomination that is the cursive n?

The pockets are alone to give away that Hostel guy is wearing a “field jacket” cotton blend while Agent 47 is wearing a ECWCS cold/wet weather top. He could have two jackets and all that but they’re different jackets.

I mean, the woman who was right next to the CEO understandably freaked and bolted but yeah.

Alright Randy Newman, take out your insecurities on them.
- Comment on How long do you think we'll keep seeing "formerly Twitter"? 6 months ago:
If we say that the accepted pronunciation of “X” is “ex” then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince’s logo.
“Ex” User says… Is this a former user of the website or current?
A user on the website “ex” is too long winded and sounds like I’m saying a hypothetical.
Users on “ex” - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?
The golden ticket is “formerly Twitter” because we actually know what the fuck that one is.
I’m willing to bet there’s at least one X user on X right now.

How long was Prince “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince”?
Yeah, the rest of his life.
Twitter probably will have the same laid upon it.

- Comment on [Discussion] Someone should have gotten sued over Kangaroo Jack for deceiving trailer 6 months ago:
How you gonna “or whatever it’s called” and get the title perfectly right? Like call it “Stallion of the Cinnamon Rolls” or something at least.
And it’s not a terrible movie. It’s certainly a kids movie but of all the trash out there for kids, it’s nowhere near the worst. Pull up Netflix and we can find at least twenty worse titles.

I paid $3.50 to see a band a few months. Granted, I got a discount but the tickets were about $25 regular.
- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 7 months ago:
I’m still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I’m running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.
- Comment on How do I know if a medical issue should be addressed by a Clinic Visit, Urgent Care, or the Emergency Room? 7 months ago:
Called once to ask, they said go to urgent care.
Then billed me for a telehealth visit and also the Urgent Care billed me too.
- Comment on In honor of the start spooky season (yay!), I have a question about an apparently beloved spooky meme/skit. What about "David S. Pumpkins" is so funny? 7 months ago:
SNL is very much a combination of both humor from two years ago and next years mainstream. So many of the skits are built in the gap of “what have I seen lately that’s funny so I can quickly write” and “this will be twice as hilarious in a few years.”
So, SNL is usually pretty meh because you either like current humor and the ‘future’ stuff doesn’t hit or you don’t like current humor and that doesn’t hit.
- Comment on Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way! 7 months ago:
Didn’t have precision munitions back then. Didn’t have drones that can monitor the battlefield from across the globe and provide real-time video feeds.
Besides, in this case, Israel is playing Germany’s role.
