Wow that was a blast from the past! Still a bit of a banger too!
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 1 week ago:
That only applies in shit states that allow that wage fuckery. There are several states where the minimum doesnt change based on whether the job receives tips.
This is one of the problems with the argument online. Too many off us have different realities around them. Where I’m at they get a pretty healthy minimum (~$17/h) + tips.
Being a waiter at a decent restaurant is quite lucrative in my area. I don’t want to change that for the person, after all, the waiter is getting a cut off every check. It’s like a form of profit sharing! However, I’d rather just have the prices on the menu reflect reality and the business handle all the dispersion of pay without me and my feelings getting manipulated for an extra 5% (after the previously established 18% tip standard was deemed too low by people who get tipped that for decades.)
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 2 weeks ago:
To be fair, that’s not the actual alternative for the waiter. The waiter either accepts their income as it is with some people not providing a tip, or they can opt for other employment like the rest of the workforce that isn’t tipped. They don’t have to sit at home waiting for things to change like helpless puppies.
I’m in California though so we don’t have any of that wage fuckery where they can be paid less than minimum wage if tips make up a significant portion of their income. It’s $17.55 hour minimum plus tips where I’m at.
I’d really rather see tipping outlawed along with all other obscured fees and just pay what you need to pay to have waiters and charge what you need to charge to have a business transparently printed on the menu.
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 2 weeks ago:
I watched Last Action Hero a few years ago for the first time, and it honestly didn’t even feel that dated. It held up!

Would filbert also be an acceptable answer?
- Comment on Snoop Dogg working on 'Planet of the Apes'–like movie, but with dogs 2 weeks ago:
Snoop has felt so over exposed the past few years that most of his projects just look like ridiculous cash grabs. This is no different, but I really want to subject the Red Letter Media guys to this and watch their review more than I want to see whatever movie is actually made.

He’s a self professed degenerate, and wealthy to boot. He doesn’t give a shit what any of us think.
It’s nice his dad called and gave him shit though, since his audience is more toxic than he is and he shouldn’t be feeding them like that.
I’ve seen enough of his content to know he’s usually pretty quick to shut down talk just like what he got in trouble for so I don’t know what got into him that day.
- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 5 weeks ago:
As i got older, I cared more. I uses to listen politely, then I started to look forward to hearing about my friends and family lives. Now I’m one of those guys who calls to ask for updates. 😆

Yup that’s what he said to her alright…
- Comment on Smoking PSA 2 months ago:
I’m generally against “sin taxes” but I have to admit that the $2 bump per pack after I quit smoking made it easier to not look back. It’s now about $5 more (I think, I haven’t actually looked for a while.)
After 18 years of smoking, I am glad I quit.
- Comment on Anon pregames 2 months ago:
Unfortunately they don’t actually state their reasoning. They just state what they told her while trying to reason with them to go to sleep.
You are probably right, but its just an assumption. It their position I would also be attempting to reason with them by reminding them of their existing relationship instead of “No, I don’t want to rape you. You cannot consent.”

As a person with 3 cats, I get what you’re saying. You’re getting down voted, but we all know cats can devistate local wild life populations.
Rescuing them and making them indoor cats is the responsible thing to do, but I don’t think any vegans would argue with that.
I think its after those establishing facts that the discussion is taking place.
I personally am not a fan of any breeding programs when there are so many cats and dogs available to rescue, but that’s just me.
- Comment on Why do boomers hate squirrels so much? 2 months ago:
They eat hella fruit off my fruits trees. And when I say eat, I mean take 3 bites and drop it on the ground to grab a new one and take 3 bites.
They waste 50 apricots to eat 3 apricots.
Until I started taking all the ground fruit and boiling it in a pot to make fruit juice for brandy distilling, it was a complete waste. Now it’s still wasteful, because I’d rather eat the fruit, but at least I recover something from it.
Fuck squirrels.
- Comment on Final Fantasy Creator Reveals Which Entry He Thinks Is 'Most Complete', and It's Not Final Fantasy 7 2 months ago:
I totally agreed when I was younger but over the years I’ve grown to appreciate when the game makes me play a “suboptimal” class/job. I learn to love some of the quirky characters because they make me try them.
When I’m given all the jobs I compulsively try to level them all because I’m broken that way.

Just saying you have a process for dealing with the problem is not as good as solving the problem.
Is there some other problem being solved by the shelf? Like do they have really terrible water pressure and need to rely on gravity and a slope?

The article is attempting to move the established goal posts for expectations. Stop shilling for these guys. You don’t need to carry their water. The devsl know this which is why they’ve kept pace. They’re just bitching about having to.
It’s so unreasonable yet we do it. Woe is us.

I wrote them out and you made up something different. Fuck man. How many times do I gotta break it down? You not reading didn’t make my words not exist. This is like… common stuff. This whole argument is making sense now…

OR you are stupid. I’m just not gonna sugercoat it by pretending adding “gamer” to “brain rot” means anything but you exposing your bias.
If you wanna call me stupid, just do that. Don’t tell on yourself.
A gamer is the target audience of the article.

I did write my expectations. So why was that your response? You called expecting the norm illogical. I take it back. You’re just unrealistic and assume everyone else should be too.

You made up what my expectations were then argued against that instead of reality. Keep shilling though.

But my expectations match the norm! You are stupid.

No need to make things up. My expectation is what we get most of the time. You’re the weirdo acting like it’s not. This article is just a developer trying to move the goal posts of expectations yet again.
Like how much of a cuck for these businesses do you want to be?
It’s not illogical to expect a developer to follow the basic standards of the industry they opted into. It would be illogical to declare them the exception.
Small teams drop regular media and content updates all the time without people dying at their desks. The conversation of their working conditions is between them and their bosses (maybe the state), and not their customers.

Naw screw that. Don’t label it early access if you don’t plan to update it from its current state at a rate that the majority of your fan base expects.

It’s not expecting a complete package at the time of purchase. It’s expecting one in due time with your support.
What you are describing is a game outside of early access.
