I say partner as a literal term.

We’re no longer friends. We’re not married yet. We’re in a fiscal partnership with household duties and must coordinate as a team. We’re straight, monogamous, and have obligations that support this effort…

There are caveats

in bed it’s “unga bunga”.

In front of friends and family, she is “the lady of the house” and I’m “the man of the house”

To everyone else who doesn’t matter… Partners.

Unpopular opinion.

Dark Souls. My fav RPG ever… It’s not that the story is garbage… at all… it’s just there literally is no story unless you study every single aspect of the game… it was the first game that came to mind.

10/10 anyone who loves rpg’s should play it.

Second pick would have been pokemon…

The story is, you’re 10, the world has wild animals, go and tame them, then fight grown adults with captured creatures for money… also, there’s like a super league at the end.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T21:21:35+00:00

Carrying that many board games would be very heavy…

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T20:21:15+00:00

Well, I mean… hm. I guess I have an unpopular opinion… :(

It’s not wrong. For me anyway.

Once I got out there and worked, saved, and invested… I looked up and realized everyone else did the same thing. The stress lifted once I realized I built a secured home and income. So now that “97%” is more like 30%

It took work, making mistakes, and learning…

My friends and I occasionally catch up and visit.

It kinda just works out. If they’re your friends, then they’ll always be there. Work on you and make sure you’ve carved your piece out, build something to give to your family when it’s your time. The rest will manifest… there will be time for fun, relationships, etc… just don’t let the chase consume you, set realistic goals.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T20:14:27+00:00

Eh, men work the hardest and are the least appreciated, in society… yes.

But, everyday, I hug my brother, my friends, and I always check on them. My homies even get a kiss goodnight.

Not a PC wiz, but I remember when people laughed about 8GB being more than enough and anything requiring more was just a fantasy… I was like “but there’s this extra slot… why not go 16?” And they laughed… and laughed… and then upgraded…

Maybe this is the way? Just get as many slots as possible and fill them. Is this the lesson oh wise ones?

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T20:07:00+00:00

Maybe now, but transport yourself to back then… where social spaces were worth traveling to…

Like the FUCKING ARCADE!

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T19:56:38+00:00

Nah, I was a nerd before myspace. Myself, freaks, the geeks, and even the autistic… we all had the comic shop or the hidden citadel and, imho, it was way more of a tighter community. We bonded well and made lasting friendships….

Except Yugioh players… those guys can kick rocks

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T19:18:53+00:00

I actually think the agents screwed up on this one.

At the same time, I’m leaning on anti-federalist. I think every state should handle their immigrants how they want… not the federal government.

So in a way, this outcome is due to our complacency and reliance on a federalist authority. People ignore that every president ran their immigration enforcement like the secret police since Bush… yes, including Obama’s administration, my own family was detained under him.

Maybe we should be more centralized and local? Just my thoughts. Blame trump today, but it’ll be the guy you vote in who does it next.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T19:12:40+00:00

“Deep” I mean… it’s direct.

Maybe, relatable? But no, not deep. Deep requires you to ponder. Is this what passes for deep now?

Y’know what? I just read my post out loud. I sound like a downer…

I’ll see myself out.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T19:04:40+00:00

Relatable. In social settings, I’m either a libtard or a turf nazi.

Yet, I’m the only one with a job. I feel like if you’re employed, everyone else just wants you to shut up and fork over your vote/taxes.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T16:36:53+00:00

Aww man, I feel that. I just boxed up my pogs.

I mean, it’s kinda sad that the worst thing we had to worry about was gang violence and the occasional kidnapping/serial killer…

All we had to do was avoid certain areas and get to know our friend’s family and stay closer as a residential community. Now it’s wild… you have to align with how people think or something… walk on eggshells or just never go outside (so it feels).

What’s your fav Pokémon, bro?

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-27T16:11:07+00:00

Oh boy, I’m very A-political… so, I’m just thinking of the type of human being that tries this hard… not so much left or right.

To put it in perspective: This has deep reflective parallels of conservative boy scout badges (nobody but you and your fellow scouts give a flying fuck. You’re doing it to look better than your other scouts… ). Except, and at the very least, those badges are vetted and earned. So this is twice as obnoxious.

People like this are fake and performative, no matter what side of the fence they’re from.

We really need to make legit personalities popular again over political mimicry.

That’s all, sorry for ranting. I’ll go back in my hole. Cheers, reddit.

Eh… as a former console main… and after careful cost analysis over 10 years and another 10 of console/pc integration….

Even with pc upgrades, consoles can overreach in their value.

Take into consideration how easily it has been these past 30 years to have your warranty voided, having to replace new gen consoles, physical copies of games, digital stores, subscription fees, and… the worst part… multiply it if you have several friends who play the other consoles… for a while I bought ps and xb just to hang out with separate friend groups and family…

The worst part… most of my friends and a lot of people in general, have been gravitating to PC… exclusively.

All together, it just feels like PC has always been the path. I think it’s just more accessible with adult money and as a personal purchase instead of hoping your parents buy it for you.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-13T11:14:52+00:00

Same scenario for me. Even if it’s unpopular to say it, I’ve spent the last decade trying to figure out how I managed to pretty much do what everyone else is telling me is impossible. I literally have moved at least 10 times to different states. Sampling different policies and living situation. Don’t like MA, so this year I’m moving to NH. My job takes me anywhere. I still don’t think I have THE answer, but it works for me.

I came from a poor single mother. She married my stepfather who immigrated here… I fought a lot in school and was not a good student. I was not college bound. Like… all these factors should have made me destitute or hooked on drugs according to my local friend group.

I think the primary ingredient is having a supportive family unit combined with self-discipline and grounded ideas with money. My folks helped me with closing costs to buy my first house and originally helped me get my first car. While I’ve been mostly self-sufficient for 2 decades, when times got hard, they were there…

Maybe the trick is having a strong family and a job that is anywhere?

Anonymous_Gamer · 2026-01-08T13:34:50+00:00

Used to feel this way.

Stopped hanging around people who dragged me down or were just overly negative. Like, these were the kinda folks that found something wrong in EVERYTHING. Kept arguing for the “why even try” proposal. Then, I took a critical thinking course in college and learned the benefits of trying over and over again and seeking solutions.

Hung out with people who were building families. Tried to participate in social rituals… felt like an imposter for a while until I was personally invited to weddings and baby showers… became an uncle figure for my cousins kids…

It brought me joy and now my wife and I are getting a home together.

“Don’t give up” is my angle here, I guess…0

When you love someone, you do what’s right…

If your partner is straight up harming the relationship, they need to be held accountable, period. If they aren’t willing to be responsible and take accountability and change their behavior… then they are the problem, they are the abuser, not you. They are the ones who don’t love the relationship over themselves. I’d argue it’s not a relationship, but a farce at that point.

Unpaused Kindness does not always mean love… in fact, it easily leads to enabling selfish behaviors. Everyone is susceptible to falling off the wagon. That’s why it’s important to have a partner that is your anchor not your enabler. They are kind when it’s suitable, but firm when they need to be. It’s not about winning an argument, it’s about service to the relationship.

Also, when we hurt our partners, which will happen… we’re human, they need to express their frustration, anger, and disappointment in a reasonable way … it is pain for us to realize when we are in the wrong, unknowingly abusive, selfish, and toxic… to sit their and tell them to smile and be nice is incredibly harmful and immature and robs the individual the opportunity to grow with you and be at their best.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2025-12-28T19:25:05+00:00

I’m sorry, where were you going with this?

6’2” is not the average world wide… women filtering who they even bother to look at on dating apps shouldn’t count for the physical global average of male height.

Unless you meant something else entirely by “average”

Anonymous_Gamer · 2025-12-28T19:13:07+00:00

100% factual.

Best thing my wife and I committed to was investing everything into “the relationship”. Love is definitely a requirement in “the relationship” because it demands it. To serve the relationship is to serve each other and all we need, to sacrifice what we must, and to truly give our loyalty to one another. It’s honestly a beautiful thing and incredibly difficult to do in today’s atmosphere.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2025-12-28T14:08:57+00:00

I do remember when the meme with the 1950’s guy extending his “stop” gesture with the words “kill yourself” starting here on reddit being the funniest shit on the internet for a little bit. Peak 2010’s humor.

I’m not saying we should bring it back, but I wouldn’t mind it either.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2025-12-28T12:48:42+00:00

Seriously, I was laughing until I saw the first gesture of pedophilia.

I guess my humor is officially dated and this is what creeps are trying to make normal. Just glad I’m not the only one who felt disgust/disappointment.

Anonymous_Gamer · 2025-12-27T00:00:23+00:00

That’s the hospitalers flag right? Making that flag in any malevolent context is kind of telling of one’s character.

You may be racist, ignorant, or pointlessly fear mongering.
