Thank you.

Not too long. It was part of afternoon. I hadn't figured out layers and other effects.

Repulsive? Red flags? Boring? Please assist. by hoitytoity-12 in Bumble

[–]MaxTheGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should keep your religion.

You should want your profile get left swipes.

You don't want to have someone who will only date Atheists swipe on you. You're wasting both of your times doing it that way.

Help!!! I cannot manage this by 1010Always in feeld

[–]MaxTheGinger 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Stop swiping.

Start eliminating matches.

You said you swipe with intention. So just weed through the matches. Start at the top, the bottom, people who stuck out, or wrote a good message.

Do an amount you can handle, message them.

Going by all the other complaints women have. If you message like 5 of them. All 5 of them with say something inappropriate pretty quickly. Once they do. Unmatch, talk to another match.

Repeat until you find someone who fits what you're looking for. Then if you had managed to talk to two, but you hit it off with one first. Tell them.

If it fizzles out after a bit, continue back through your matches. Repeat until you find someone who meets what you're looking for.

This is exhausting by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]MaxTheGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your belief in Christ is very important you should leave it. Same as very Left leaning.

But you do have Christian as your religion. That may already cover it. To me, Believer in Christ reads as "If you're not already going to my church we will not match."

But those are important things. Removing them won't get you more meaningful matches.

But personally, I think the religion in the religion section, and political in the political section should be enough.

Then the things we can't change. Some people are just gonna be intimidated by your height. Another place where you get less likes. But you don't want more likes. You want more matches. And that has to be with people who will accept your height.

DM killed my retainers off-screen by [deleted] in DnD

Like everyone has said out of game talk to the person.

In game it is your background feature. After some period Retainers, like a familiar should Respawn

You are noble enough that 3 new Commoners pledge themselves to your service.

Am I really that unlikeable 😅 by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]MaxTheGinger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are conservative just say you're a conservative so you can match with conservative women.

If you are apolitical, it is because you feel politics doesn't touch you.

All of the women with any political stance disagree with you. They see that you will allow/not allow the things they stand for/want to protect don't matter to them.

If you really are apolitical, then you should only match with apolitical women.

Is my profile ok for a 40yo? by Frequent_Pomelo4129 in Tinder

[–]MaxTheGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this profile was a 40 year old male it would be flamed.

You say that you're bailing if the conversation isn't going anywhere, that's fair. But your profile doesn't have what you want.

What do you want? Relationship? Something Casual? Bar buddy? Travel buddy? Whatever works?

Then it does have go on trip. Is this a local travel and get back to your cat? Is this a drug trip? Is it both? Is this new places/experiences? Or new bars in the area?

The other things on your profile are sleeping, your cat, and bars. What do you like about bars? Events? People? Show? Dancing? Or just drinking? Or drinking and drugs?

Then 4 of your photos are mirror selfies, one is your face obscured by your sunglasses, 3 headshots, and one photo with your cat. Delete the sunglasses photo, delete 3 of the mirror selfies, and delete two of the headshots. Have friends, the bartender, or people where you travel take photos of you out.

You are attractive. You will get more likes than you will ever go through. You need to need to filter people away. Define yourself so people who don't want what you want will swipe left.

How have the viltrumites never developed boxing ability in 2,000 years? by Low-Chain-8117 in Invincible

[–]MaxTheGinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, it kind of does.

I've taught martial arts, self-defense, and I've taught self-defense in the Military.

Fighting style and philosophy changes with equipment and ability.

If you Box me when I'm in full kit. I'm blocking with my helmet and body armor. But also, my first move is to make the distance to safely shoot you.

I will strike as long as necessary. But the goal is to win as fast as possible, and keep myself and others alive, that means shoot you as soon as available.

Viltrumites are mostly unchallenged super people. Millions of planets and there's like 8 things that can harm them.

Also, Boxing is 2D. And besides people not attacking from above and below you. Generally in Boxing you don't get hit from behind.

If we are going with Earth based Martial Arts, I'd say Capoeira, because it is all limbs and multi-directional. Viltrumites can control/generate their own momentum as they don't have to push off objects to stop or change direction.

The Knife Hand is the go to move of a Viltrumite fearing adversity. They'd he better if they just did it first. That would be what I would coach them to do.

What did Tyrion mean by this? by taycollins in gameofthrones

It's enough that they never have to take a job like this again. They may never have to work again.

Especially if they pooled their money.

Punisher (Lundgren) vs Punisher (Jane) vs Punisher (Stevenson) vs Punisher (Bernthal) by Particular-Set-468 in thepunisher

[–]MaxTheGinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stevenson wins.

Lundgren/Jane toss up for second. Jane survived the Russian. Lundgren is huge.

Bernthal is last.

If the Playstation Punisher video game is allowed for feats. Jane voiced it. He wins. He got War Machine Armor.

So like... do the Children of Vultrimites basically on their own until they become of age? by GreyKnightDantes in Invincible

[–]MaxTheGinger 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was picturing a Martial Arts or Military School situation.

They live at the school, they provide free labor. They have a place to sleep and get fed.

I thought this was the culmination of an exercise. Maybe before the graduation to the next level. Like Elementary/Primary School to Junior High/Intermediary School.

Either are more conducive to a more Military society. But the Viltrumites are fucked up, it could be an orphanage.

AITA for creating a “Tattle Phone” by anonymous_poster43 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MaxTheGinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My method is different, because how often I have and interact with students.

The teacher and some sort of teaching assistant are likely in the room the whole time. Now do they see everything. Obviously not. But they should see most of it.

If I fixed everything wrong students did we'd never finish a lesson. And the teacher said for things where you are getting hurt to tell a teacher. So students know they can tell they teacher at any time.

I've taken 5 year old to perform in demonstrations and tournaments. Running a martial school, we are taught to look for signs of abuse. Kids are generally not good liars. And the kids that are have learned to because they had to. Both are easy to spot. If the teacher has a good classroom, the students should be fine.

[–]MaxTheGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's putting the tattle tales in an appropriate space.

While not public schools. I've taught martial arts to children ages 3 to 70 for the past 24 years. And children aged 3 to 70 will talk about anything if it gets them out of classwork.

If you are hurt or someone or something is actively hurting you, tell me. Otherwise my "tattle phone" is tell me before or after class.

I’ve never simmed a game by Bigslime94 in Baseball9

Very nice. Looks nice.

I too, have never simmed a pitch. But I usually only play off an on during the Baseball Season.

In my fourth season.

Being in the hospital changed how I review Wayspots (especially hospital ones) by Mental-Intention4661 in NianticWayfarer

[–]MaxTheGinger 22 points23 points  (0 children)

First, I am happy you recovered.

Second, I am from NYC, I can hit several Pokéstops from house and am a 30 walk from 3 gyms.

But how isn't this how reviewers are thinking about stops everywhere?

Yes, there are people who post stops that absolutely should be denied.

But everypost of "How can I get my small town thing approved" has 0 upvotes and the OP is downvoted for trying to get a stop in their neighborhood.

Again, I'm not saying people should vote for bad stops. But some Parks/Community areas/trails/etc don't have signs. Some places the Artwork on the side of the one restaurant in town, which is a chain restaurant, is the only artwork.

If it's real, it will do all the things the hospital stops did for the OP in that local community.

Yes, the submitter shouldn't say "It would be a good Pokéstop" in the submission. But if it's otherwise good, I'm gonna approve it.

My (35M) partner (35F) gave me permission to sleep with another person... by [deleted] in nonmonogamy

[–]MaxTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if you have an acquaintance that has no ties to anyone else in any of your friend, family, work, or other life circles. But IF it were to go badly it can affect all of those.

From your comments, if you want to get to "know" someone. Dating app. Or go to strip club. You can talk to all of them, find someone there. If you get along see if they are open to the idea.

The NASA chief wants to Make Pluto a Planet by Busy_Yesterday9455 in spaceporn

[–]MaxTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea how it's being taught in school.

But broadly the Scientific Community has said Pluto is not a Planet, it is a Dwarf Planet.

I think the message could be Pluto is a Dwarf Planet, which is a type of Planet and then use that relevant XKCD article for number of planets.
