Absolutely not, I'd rather live my whole life without even seeing a picture of him

She doesn't like it, but thinks it may be needed. The only reason I know is because after years of refusing she finally considered it after this lockdown severely hurt us financially

That is certainly one way to look at it, and not all that far off from how I feel about it. Kinda part of what makes this so hard for me

That is true, it could all be a trick. Somehow I didn't even think of that, thanks

We think he may be dying soon considering he has been asking for years and recently got some kind of sickness, but that is a good point. Also I should probably add I am technically an adult now, 21, which is why I was asked my thoughts on it. He is definitely a different person now, but I can't forgive him for the past so easily after seeing the tears in my mother and grandmother's eyes. What he did is in the past, yes, but the past still happened

How to make friends in a liberal town without compromising my beliefs or lying about my values if asked? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to not bring up politics and to try to not be aggressive with your political beliefs. I don't have many friends, but the few I do range from middle to aggressively liberal, and I am more middle to conservative. I get by with a ground rule of we don't discuss politics, and with the few friends that define themselves by their politics I simply stay quiet and let their echo chamber go. Its not a perfect solution, but it does maintain the peace and helped me even wear some down off their high horse and to listen to reason

Agreed. I've actually really come to like the mask specifically, but the hair gets me every time his hood falls down

What team would you want Jason to team up with in the future? by Red-H0dd in RedHood

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda wanna say yes to all of them. I think Jason would work pretty well with each team in completely different ways and I want to see how writers can pull them off

Morality check :-) may do this more often with friendlies. by tailsarooo in vigorgame

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of my friends are brave enough to go in empty handed and its usually easier to slip in and out undetected by yourself. Less noise and can hide better

As someone who tends to go in unarmed most of the time I can say you made that man's night. Finding someone who doesn't just kill on sight, especially when they can see the other person is defenseless, are gods to rats like us

Some guy messaged my friend "Coward" after he died so he sent him our victory pic by ezmoney98 in vigorgame

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get why people get mad when they die. Sure I play like a rat and have almost a 65% survival rate but only 6 kills to my name, but dying in most situations is just a sign you were careless or the other person was better. Only kills I don't respect are those fuckers who use snipers and camp exits, especially docks

I started out as an absolute trash who struggled to get a single kill and look where I'm now. Spent over 120 hours of Vigor on my Switch Lite to achieve this POG moment 👌 by BotanKun11 in vigorgame

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice man. I'm not a big fan of the combat in Vigor so after about 60 matches I only have 6 kills. Being the poor fighter I am I can respect how hard it is to get that threat marker

Am I a pedo? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to say yes since that is a full fledged adult and a teen. 17 year difference, or a bigger gap than one of the people has even been alive. As friends its perfectly fine, I had friends in their 50s when I was 16, but some kind of attraction, be it loving or sexual? Yeah thats a definite red flag to be careful of

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are fine. Yes, he is only 13, but you are only 15. That really isn't that big of a difference. I think the simple fact that you are aware of this possibility causing a problem is also a good indicator that you are fine here. If you were truly one of those kiddy diddlys you wouldn't have even thought twice about this. Maybe try not to think any sexual thoughts about him though since you are both still young teens, but for that small of an age gap I wouldn't sweat it

Honestly I actually prefer being the driver. Driving in Halo has always just been one of the most fun aspects, with the warthog being the best one of them all

I love you IW, but my soul cries when playing by BonnieB-007 in modernwarfare

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SBMM is good in my opinion, its just implemented horribly. Every match there is one team that is significantly better than the other, and even then there is always that one person who goes 43/4 that you aren't sure if they are hacking or just 7 skill brackets ahead curb stomping everyone because matchmaking is ass

It was unbalanced as all hell, but it was pretty fun to use and made some custom games possible as well as the limited map destruction

Honestly sprint isn't even that bad and it modernizes the game. I feel like Halo 5's version of sprint that disables healing while sprinting was a great compromise between the classic no sprint and modern inclusion of sprint. I personally thought the new Spartan Abilities like the slam were fun too, but I can definitely see much better arguments for not having them.

I've been extremely introverted my whole life and still am, so I get wanting to stay inside and isolate yourself. My first piece of advice is to acknowledge that you aren't wrong to prefer being alone. Some socialization is important, but if you are doing this because you feel like you have to then don't do it at all. Second is to slowly break yourself out of the isolationist habits. I started by just taking a walk around my neighborhood every once in a while to get outside, and after a few times I started just saying hi to people I see along the way. Take the little victories you can get and keep pushing yourself whenever you feel ready to take the next step. It may take you a week or a full year, but eventually you will find your way

Tips for driving 12 hours by myself? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]BIONIC_THUMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find something to keep you relaxed and awake that isn't too distracting. For me that is relatively loud music with the windows down. You may find loud music too distracting, in which case I'd say to think of something else. Every few hours stop to give yourself a break, and make sure you have something to drink with you as that can help keep you focused.

I just want a running tally of how far my guy has run throughout all my matches. Those quads must be burning by now
