I thought you were gone for good this time. Glad to see I was wrong. Welcome back. Good to hear you’re doing well.

You misunderstand. I understand everything you say. And you are correct, in the world in which we currently live as we currently understand it. However, the article and the question in op deals with imagination and fantasy.
To give you an example. If someone were to ask you “what would you do if you had a billion dollars?”. You would probably answer by saying something along the lines of “it is impossible for me to earn a billion dollars because x and y”. But that’s not the answer anyone wants when they ask that question. That’s what you’re doing right now. Not sure if you’re doing it to troll people or because you’re having issues with taking things to literally or some other reason. Either way, I’m done with this “conversation”. Have a nice day.
- Comment on Would you want to live forever in an infinite game? 2 weeks ago:
The word “copy” isn’t used in the article nor the op. You continue to engage in bad faith with a simple question instead of just answering it, for some reason. Imagine you could transfer your consciousness into a simulation like in Tron or whatever. That’s what they mean. Not a copy. But your actual self. Or if that’s too hard to accept, just think of a scenario where you’re the copy. You spawn into a world like that. What do you do? Do you play or do you just nope out?
- Comment on Would you want to live forever in an infinite game? 2 weeks ago:
The question is “would” not “will”. It’s a conditional and a longer form of the question would’ve been something along the lines of “if it were realistically possible, would you like to live forever in an afterlife such as this?”
For me the answer is yes. I’d like to have the option to kill myself in case I ever get bored or whatever, but I’d still take it even if I had to risk an eternity of insanity.

I’m lucky to live in France so there’s plenty of affordable and good local wine but I’ll definitely keep an eye on the import section for that one. Heard good things about Californian wines. So I was already curious but never actually tried any.
- Comment on Rich ppl live longer 1 month ago:
Depends on the wine. I wanted to see for myself so I bought 2 bottles from the same producer. Same type of wine and stuff as well. One bottle was 25-ish€ and the other was 80-ish. I could instantly tell which the more expensive wine was. Then I asked my wife to taste without telling her which is which. She could also instantly tell. Was it worth the price? Fuck no. I usually buy in the 10-15 range from a guy that I trust since supermarket stuff is hit and miss and I like trying new ones, not just buying the same one every time.
- Comment on Fogey-assed old dude says 2 months ago:
Nope. For metal the suggestions are like you said. Either generic or limited. I usually just look up “more bands like x” and use the results. Usually a mix of last.fm + reddit + other sites. Another thing I’d do is use rateyourmusic and browse by genre. For Symphonic metal, for example. Sometimes there’s genre specific sites. Like the progarchives where I go as well from time to time. Oh, many subreddits also have discord servers so maybe look into that as well.
- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 2 months ago:
Oh, for sure, you’re right. But those kinds of claims are to be expected when talking about the biggest band of the 60s. The whole “bigger than Jesus” was a silly thing to say, but he wasn’t too far off with the claim.
- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 2 months ago:
Exactly, you’re right. Because it’s all about influence and inspiration, that’s exactly why the Beatles are considered so important and mc5 less so. Because Helter skelter came out in 68 and tons of people listened to it. MC5 were obviously important but their first concert outside of Michigan was also in 68 and their first album wasn’t out until 1970. Only a live album and some singles before that. So they’re a lot less influential no matter how you look at it. The first metal song could’ve actually been written in 1961 but if it’s some demo that only 5 people have ever listened to, it doesn’t really matter, does it? (Unless one of those 5 people was Tony Iommi or something xD)
I’m not a Beatles fan, but too many musicians credit them as inspirations so they were obviously important.

Pretty sure the defining quality is the “shit” part of the name. Aka low quality/effort.
Shitposts don’t need to be funny or interesting. Look at the whole corn, jeans or beans posts.
And judging by the amount of both praise and hate she’s getting, I’d argue that Violet is one of the best shitposters in this community.
- Comment on Do you consider GTA VI overpriced? 2 months ago:
Fair enough. But I do wonder. If they only had the standard version for sale and then 3-6 months later they’d put all the ultimate edition stuff for sale as a dlc, would you still call it scummy?
- Comment on Do you consider GTA VI overpriced? 2 months ago:
You go in once, you spend a minute to pick your fav hairstyle (which might not even be one of the exclusive ones) and then you never go in again. You do you, but I personally don’t consider that content. It doesn’t really change the experience of the game.
Even if we do consider it content for the sake of the argument, it’s what… an hour of content? That’s still silly to get upset over when you pay an extra 25% for it.
100 hours of content for 80€ vs 101 hours of content for 100€.

“Track down a variety of abandoned classic and work-in-progress project cars and revitalise them to their former glory in this special commission from eccentric collector and local fixer, Wyman. Restore these and make them your own, including four vehicles that are only available in the Ultimate Edition.”
So you get 4 extra cars in ultimate. I’d hardly call those missions, but meh.
The rest is just other vehicles, skins, tattoos, etc.
Also “PTT Youngin$ Compound and Scores
One of Leonida’s loudest and most socially active gangs, the PTT Youngin$ grow premium hydroponics in places you’d least expect. Find a way to raid the PTT Youngin$ Illegal Goods Store in Southside Vice City and escape safely to score some special items and distinct contraband. "
Sort of sounds like a mission as well, but in the style of those “? " on the map in open world games that take 5 mins at max.

I’m not gonna buy either because fuck rockstar, but let’s be honest. The game is 80. The other 20 is just for some cosmetics.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I agree, mostly, as that’s how I read it as well. But I also think that it’s easier to misunderstand that you’re making it out to be. Because there’s context from your previous posts which isn’t explained in this meme. There’s just the mention of fling in the title but the actual meme only says “I wanna be single but I want you to be obsessed with me”. And a person in a non monogamous relationship wouldn’t refer to themselves as “single”, for example, which leads to more confusion, I think

Guy that’s mad because he’s been flirting with a woman and wants to get with her but she explains to him that she doesn’t wanna be with him but just wants him to want her.
It’s not how I read it initially, but hear me out…
Wants to get in a relationship but can’t? Check. Blames the woman for it? Check Incel’s perspective checks out, imo.
- Comment on I want it to slap me across the face 3 months ago:
Yeah, no worries. In the end, we like what we like. Personally I don’t like it when I have to add sugar to the espresso. And for me, most places serve coffee that’s too bitter cause they roast the beans too much since that’s what was the standard for the longest time.
- Comment on I want it to slap me across the face 3 months ago:
Like I said, i was working with Italian suppliers, because it was an Italian place. So I wasn’t making french espresso. And I never said there wasn’t any difference.
I said the difference is in taste and smell. Because that’s where the difference is. No matter where you are in the world, a good espresso will look and feel the same. Because the beans don’t change the texture, they change the smell and the taste.
What you’re probably referring to as this big difference between Italian espresso and other places comes from the fact that in many places in Italy, when you order a coffee, they give you a ristretto instead of an espresso.
- Comment on I want it to slap me across the face 3 months ago:
First of all, in most places espresso costs 1.5-2€ euros regardless of “wave”. You can pay 2€ for an illy espresso from a “real italian” place or you can pay 2€ for an espresso from a place that roasts its own coffee or at least sources it from a decent place. Maybe where you are it’s different and I’m sorry that the coffee scene is that shitty, but over here we don’t pay extra for good coffee.
As for my experience …I’ve actually worked as a barista in France with Italian suppliers and have been to Italy plenty of times and talked to multiple baristas as it’s actually a passion of mine. So yeah, everything I’ve said is true. The 5-30 numbers were obviously just extremes to make a point. The fact that you couldn’t tell says more about you than anything else.
- Comment on I want it to slap me across the face 3 months ago:
Have you ever had espresso in a third wave café ? because most of them have the same “feel”. The only difference is in the smell and the taste. The taste and the strength of the coffee are related but not mutually exclusive. You can make a coffee with 5g of coffee and you can make a coffee with 30g of coffee. Obviously the latter will hit like a sledgehammer no matter what kind of coffee you use. But both will taste more like coffee when there’s good beans with a proper roast instead of the “classic” burnt, bitter roast.
Also, 99% of italian baristas just push a button to get coffee from a grinder then they slot it into the espresso machine and press another button to make the machine push water through the puck. There’s no skill involved. There’s a guy that works for the espresso machine maker that comes and calibrates the machine and the grinder and that’s the only guy with any skill in the process. And even that job isn’t that hard. Only third wave coffee shops still bother to calibrate their own machines(and even then, many don’t, from what I’ve seen) or use any other process that actually requires skill or a recipe.

Huh.. I never thought of it that way. And I can see how they’re similar but I feel they’re different still mostly because these are usually trolls or just idiots that come to complain, whereas those people usually post on fb/utube/etc. where they’re easier to ignore. Feels less targeted.
- Comment on When Windows users find the Threadiverse 4 months ago:
Fastest save of my life. Applies to so many things too. I never understood the appeal of showing up just to say negative things. I’m guessing it’s some need to drag people down to your sad level or something but it’s not something I can understand.

Oh yeah. That too. And I don’t really get it but hey.. if they like, who am I to argue?

Hmm.. it’s not bad, but it’s definitely overrated so don’t feel like you’re missing out on much. As for what it’s actually like.. physically, most of the feeling is around the entrance and it’s obviously tighter so that part is cool. Plus it’s a bit of a taboo thing still so that makes it hotter, and in my experience women are usually surprised by how enjoyable it can be and I’m a big fan of women enjoying themselves so that makes it fun for me too.

Nothing, really, it’s just that Brazil had an exceptionally good generation like 30 years ago and nothing can ever beat that since at the time pretty much every single player in their starting 11 was a star for their respective teams with players.
