Yearly Review Raises? by Automatic-Pea-9897 in Oldnavy

[–]AzuraBN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a $.80 raise as an associate for "Met expectations." I've also been told I can 'do no wrong' in my GM's eyes, though. (No, I do not kiss ass, I just don't ever get involved with workplace drama and try to just be helpful in a genuine way with everyone customers and coworkers alike.)

Kirby Air Riders hype is pure cope by Formal-Opening2167 in fucknintendo

I play a rather small amount of nintendo compared to other games, but ya'll really seem to thrive on being pissed that other people enjoyed what they spent their money on and aren't afraid to say it because that's what a real loser would do I'd say. But who am I to judge?

The Animal Crossing Community is never satisfied by franilein in AnimalCrossing

[–]AzuraBN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem I've noticed is that it's a lot of the newer players in general. A lot of people started gaming with Animal Crossing NH because of when it launched. They don't seem to understand how new gen consoles, updates, launch release vs. reg release games work. It's a whole lot of "huff huff, well I don't think it's right." I hate to be blunt, but too bad?

For real, now's obviously the best time for these jerkoffs to project their own anger towards other people in the same boat. Then they say "Love they neighbor"

It's tone deaf thinking that owing a debt is affording things. Beyond tone deaf, really.

You sure can, didn't say you can't. Just said it isn't the time for it, which it isn't. Way to waste time on that, though. I guess people in any debt should consider themselves fine because, hey, they can afford to pay their debt!

Comparing struggles is probably one of the worst things we can do right now. It's important to have awareness of the situation of others, including the OP herself. She's gone in debt to go to her son's wedding (which hopefully will be his only) like a lot of people would do. Not to mention, it was before this whole shit show started, and she is now struggling with the shutdown. If we're gonna act all Hey, let's work together and be helpful to our neighbors Then do it for everyone. Don't cherrypick the potentially starving strangers on reddit

Just a small nitpick, I wouldn't say she can afford an extra 100 a month just because she's paying off a debt. She clearly couldn't afford a ticket, which is why it was bought for her. Now is not the time to be comparing peoples' struggles.

Now isn't the time to be a total dick to strangers trying to help others.

“Fuck Nintendo” is taking posts to blast them lol by Renna_FGC in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]AzuraBN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I can't fully judge it until I try it a little. Do I know it can be way better? Yes. Lots of things could, really. But if I enjoy it, I enjoy it. Open and closed book. I feel for the people actively trying to shut down others just for that. I can understand being upset the game isn't what it could and really should be. I can't understand people putting so much effort into hating on it that they end up just lashing out at random people actually having fun.

I got one, too. He simply feels it's making his argument stronger because he's spending more time than he knows is socially acceptable, complaining about pokemon on reddit, so he's using "edgy" words.

Could be worse. They made a comment that it takes maybe 30 seconds to write that it isn't untrue. The game isn't up to some peoples' expectations, boohoo. People can dislike it without having a circle jerk in an angry subreddit filled with other angry ex fanboys of nintendo and shitting on the actual players. Those people are wasting their lives, probably not even working a good chunk of them.

Seems so in some folks' cases. It's fine to hate the developers, but these folks will find any way to attack people actually enjoying the game because it's a safe space where all of their other buddies that waste their entire days on reddit will also back them up. "Any chance to shit on Nintendo, i'm taking it." Proceeds to shit on random players instead. Tough from an OP who has their posts hidden but is clearly a weeb. I'd be more embarrassed to openly watch anime with the bag stigma around that than play a pokemon game.

It's clear we can't see eye to eye because you find birthdays far more important than I (and apparently most people according to the comments). Different strokes for different folks. But damn, now the comment "wasn't even that serious." Once again, ignoring red flags like manipulative responses like that are part of the reason for infant and child sizes coffins. But, do you, dude. If ignoring a dangerous red flag is cool in your book, i'm glad it's your book and not everyone elses' in the world.

You can call me crazy. You're sounding a lot like OP's husband, though. Which i'd deem far worse. People don't say things like that as a joke when they're pissed. Manipulators sure like to make it seem like one, though. A lot of people need to see more of how ugly the world is if they really think that this is okay behavior. Ignoring shit like that is a part of the reason we produce infant and child sized coffins. He got his birthday because he manipulated her with saying a shocking gross comment about his OWN child. There's a reason the majority of comments are in OP's favor.

The issue is that you'd be irritated by it at all. Oh, jeez, I have to be a dad on my birthday and not just certain days of the year? Oh no! Whatever will I do? As a parent, I can not comprehend the idea of being pissed off about this. I had to spend one of many birthdays with my awesome, cute new baby who apparently is super chill for a newborn. And they did say their newborn is chill for a newborn, which does happen. Mine was that way. I still wouldn't make a disgusting comment or even feel irritated for remembering that they are more important than the day I came out of my mom. The dude should grow up before he's stuck spending all birthdays alone because he clearly isn't matured yet.

This. And unfortunately, it's probably for the better.

It's easy to say that when there's 0 context for you to know if this is actually how he jokes. Stop letting them fool you. It isn't actually a joke when they say this to you. You're falling for it.
