  Fuck you. Why’d you make me laugh at that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Great Advice⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You have a hard shell inside the soft tortilla

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skill issue⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  People with jobs that aren’t playing video games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Battle Brothers gets an update two years on from its last one with some fixes and, surprisingly, some new content⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like losing but I’ve been doing it my whole life, so I’m pretty good at it now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Many Americans Really Live Paycheck to Paycheck?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You're*⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Two hours? Yeah, right, Philippides.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How it feels wandering into different bubbles sometimes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Shpheal is a Pokémon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon's friend is Buddhist⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He can afford to disappear for a week every month?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tokyo Xtreme Racer is a novel throwback to classic PS2 racing games like Midnight Club⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They mention it’s from a franchise in the first paragraph.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sci-fi and fantasy are at odds in Split Fiction, which makes no sense⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you considered that everything you like is just some level of sci-fantasy (an existing genre[-fusion])?

  They are both under the umbrella of “speculative fiction” but they go in different directions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks for nothing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This one’s a one of my favorites.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The sound of the deep⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t, in any conscience (good or bad), upvote this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tried to order a part before the tariffs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, perhaps I misspoke. It’s weird to call out that his understanding of the situation is wrong when he has no understanding of the situation at all and is uninterested in understanding.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tried to order a part before the tariffs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s stupid but not that stupid. He doesn’t even care where any drug originated from. He surely slotted “hot-button drug name” into place and blamed Canada because he wants to put pressure on them.

  One of the few things in his entire life Donald has learned and been able to apply is the US Republican playbook for blame-throwing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tried to order a part before the tariffs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is inane that one of the options is “just hold on for a few days and see what happens” and that it is a viable option at all. Government is in shambles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨modern psychiatry be like⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think I agree with this one. There’s so much about lives lived in first world countries, with all the signals and information they are bombarded with, that is almost anti-thetical to our biology. I’m certain we are more mentally unwell than people living simply, especially in the past.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon plays a prank⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was all for it until he started razing the orphanages.

  The first was funny. The fifth felt like he was pushing impropriety a little far.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RIP (again)⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You get second PTO?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Did William Burrito Mean by This?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s…not a counter argument. That’s not even disagreeing. You’re just saying it should be more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds a new way to get protein⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  …

  botulism has gotta drive the price down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds a new way to get protein⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Really? Figured it was raw.

  …is the raw can cheaper?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advice on enjoying your life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey, you’re right! Why aren’t the mods executing OP!?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advice on enjoying your life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, I make home-cooked meals, at least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kryptonite⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I want someone to kill Superman with a Kryptonite sling bullet, like David and Goliath.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds a new way to get protein⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Didja cook it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a skill⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  After about 2 years of practice, I can confidently say "I wish I didn’t have to practice this. "

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the problem with staying in early access? It’s not like the games are squatting on welfare. Do they get anything from Steam beyond a placard that says “my game ain’t finished”?

  The only thing is people deflecting criticism because of the “early access” tag. But if you want to introduce arbitrary term limits so you can win internet arguments about video game developer malfeasance, then you’ve lost me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI slop⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, it’s consistent because it’s not entirely right.

  “Slop” was a term for pointless, shitty, “earn a quick buck”-motivated commodities way before AI kicked open the door. A synonym with “schlock.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds a hidden message in Shrek⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Didn’t even assume it was a lie. Just figured anon was ignorant.

  That is also my default assumption.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sid Meier's Civilization VII | Review Thread⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand why we let Civ get away with amputating gameplay from the end-of-lifecycle previous game to repackage as new DLC again? If they hit upon great ideas in an expansion, why is that not folded into the core product like most decent games do with sequels?

  They started with a triangle for 6, slowly carved it down to a semi-smooth, functional circle, then turned around for 7 and said “how about a cube this time?” Stop reinventing the wheel and finishing refining it.

  Honestly, the development mirrors my playthroughs of 4Xs: start with something funky and a lil different, struggle to make it work, and then restart when I’m close to done.
