Well, we’re talking about mass market, supermarket butters in the first place here. Nobody is comparing these to boutique shop butters.
Beyond that, for me personally, I’ve always considered Kerrygold to be a very decent, better than Land O’ Lakes or store brand butter, but I have a preference for either Plugrà or Lurpak in my supermarket-available butter. Finlandia is also very good.

Yeah that’s probably the key. While I’m blessed in that I have friends in my life, I don’t really have any gamer friends so it’s also just me vs randoms in these scenarios
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 5 days ago:
I’m excited to see if they turn it into a FPS or a Sokoban-type game, since we learned from FF7R that apparently you can radically change the core gameplay mechanic but still call your game a “remake” somehow
- Comment on Valve's invite-only Deadlock has an even more exclusive top-secret hush-hush version 5 days ago:
I know I’m an old head, but I fall all of these games (Deadlock, Apex Legends, Overwatch, whatever) to be fun for about two hours and then I’m sated.
I genuinely wish I understood the appeal because so many people seem to get so much joy from them.
- Comment on Recommendations for "girly" games? 6 days ago:
I can’t recommend Celeste enough, personally.
I will warn you that the platforming can be challenging, but if it’s too stressful Celeste offers almost unparalleled accessibility options that will allow you fine control over the difficulty so no matter your skill level you’ll be able to progress.
Great story, cozy atmosphere but still emotional impact, and the only “fighting” you do is against yourself.
Amazing game, highly recommend Celeste

And you should sit down and stop offering your ignorant opinion. I’m going to block you now, have a nice life.

What an insane comparison. Addiction to gacha games is nothing like sexual assault. Talk to any specialist in addiction and while they certainly will talk about the evils of the various systems meant to capture such prey (gambling, drinking, etc), not a single one will fully absolve the addict of their part in the addiction.
Period.
A person who is a victim of rape never walked into a rapist’s house and ordered a rape; there is nothing comparable about and victims of addiction.
You’re fucking disgusting.

I mean…
The unfortunate reality is that both parties, the customer and the game company, are culpable and both share blame

Personally I don’t play any game with microtransactions.
I’m only interested in games I can purchase outright and then own. If there’s large scale DLC that’s fine, great even, but if there’s some in-game way to spend money that isn’t restricted to a DLC button/section, then I’m not interested.
I want to play games, not be inundated by constant sales opportunities

Alright, valid, you’re right, the presented limiting factor in the meme is in fact the SoL and not actually man’s ability to reach it. I concede, cheers.

Except that a large point of my comment is pointing out the hubris of man, so it’s important to note that ants are not hyperintelligent. The organize and build, but there is a finite limitation to their capability, at least in this any known previous state of their evolution. Like that we are the most intelligent thing on our little planet doesn’t imply to me that we are not effectively to scale with ants on the cosmic level.

Of course, but I’m trying work within the established framework of the meme here

Do you believe that the wide expanses of our planet Earth were crafted for the common ant to explore?

Yes, that is exactly what I meant. Cheers

I never said stop reporting, I said stop acting surprised. I don’t want them to stop talking about it, I just want them to be honest about it and say “Trump lied about this today” instead of “the Trump white house thinks…”
I just want them to call a spade a spade instead of acting like it’s not
- Comment on Even his doctors are full of it 3 weeks ago:
We have to stop reporting on Trump lies like they’re shocking.
Yeah dude, the lying liar lied.
Literally every time this dude opens his mouth he is either lying or spewing hate. Sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, so will Trump lie.

Nah, one of the major entitlement epidemics of our time absolutely deserves that level of ire. Keep your fucking dogs at homes or stay at the dog park.
- Comment on Max pulling THIS shit every time I finish watching Last Week Tonight 4 weeks ago:
It’s another HBO-sponsored newstainment show focusing on politics. Don’t get me wrong, fuck Bill Maher, I understand why you’re bothered, but from a programming standpoint it absolutely makes sense that this would be the next aligned recommendation.

- Comment on Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! 1 month ago:
I dunno. Frankly they’re both absolutely pantheon, legendary games that deliver a near-perfect gaming experience, but I feel like Portal 1 delivered a kind of tighter package where Portal 2 meanders just a little bit, and while Wheatley is still brilliant I’m not sure I he hit the same way or struck the same tone as GlaDOS. But we’re talking about like nanometers of difference in quality here either way as both games are goddamn stellar.

I play almost every genre (minimal interest in sports games, admittedly), and my favorite changes all the time. But in general, here are some of my all-time top games:
Final Fantasy Tactics
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (people who think BL2 is better than TPS are wrong)
Spider-Man (PS4)
Hades
Civilization 6

Weird that we’re still out here just casually using Nazis in memes as if they weren’t Nazis.
