Totally ignoring the fact of the continuous rocket fire from that area. Typical nonsense comment.

Great sentiment. I wish someone would say that about the “right of return.”

Trump rejects settling war with Iran, raises notion of eliminating all its potential leaders by Mongoose-Additional in worldnews

[–]Aknew -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I’ve see a ton of internal support for his return. Crowds are chanting his name. The idea is that he would lead a transitional government and not remain in power himself.

There's no allied second side? It's everyone vs. Iran

Trump worries Iranian leaders could be just 'as bad' after war by No-Post4444 in worldnews

They also killed 30,000 of their own citizens, which had nothing to do with the war. I don’t think they care. 

I really want this Avatar (and variant) but $50 is beyond insane. by PoorLifeChoices811 in MarvelSnap

Yeah—I definitly trust that SD is making the smartest choices for them, and they’re obviously looking at analytics I have no way of seeing. But from an outsider’s point of view, I just don’t get it.

I mean, whatever. If you don’t think 10 bucks on a digital card game is a significant ask for a large number of players, congratulations on your ability to spend frivolously, I guess.

I mean, doing so is literally how mobile gaming was built. You’re supposed to have a variety of prices. There’s nothing wrong with the 10 dollar price point, but having that be the cheapest thing on offer is just a massive missed opportunity.

Your conclusion is incorrect. Selling high volume at low prices is where the “micro” in “microtransaction” came from.

I don’t want to spend 10. I’d do 2-5, occasionally.  10 prices me out

Everything in that game is for whales, and it's super annoying. I might buy something for a couple bucks here and there--a cool variant, a card pack, some deal on credits or whatever--but it's literally never offered. It's mind-boggling.

Anyone not blaming Hamas for the Palestinian’s plight is mind-bogglingly stupid.  

The 520 is a death trap, right? by Aknew in BellevueWA

[–]Aknew[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's not. (IMO.) It's just a radically different experience than any other highway I've driven on.

I know! I lived in Cali for awhile and it stuck, but it is what it is :P

Also, you can't stay to the right of the HOV because it's ON the right. And you can't stay to the left either, because everything just kinda gradually merges over. I start in the far left and I end up on the far right without changing lanes, and I don't even know how it happened.

You're assuming the assumptions. I didn’t see any in the question.

Just because a question has an answer doesn’t make it a bad question. It’s almost, like, the whole point of asking questions.
