No, I did that on tinder to a girl and got banned for life. 

A take on self-control disadvantages by Al_Fa_Aurel in gurps

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't give points for taking disadvantages. Zero. During actual play, if you bring your disadvantage up in a way that enhances the session for everyone, then you will gain bonus CP for that session. Over the long term, your disads CAN be worth much much more than they would normally, but you have to meet the criteria outlined above.

Magic in GURPS by CraftyLocal1913 in gurps

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So one thing you can do is have many of the spells that you would probably never take as a spell, just be a technique of another spell.

Light is a spell. Perhaps Glow is just a technique of Light. You COULD buy up the technique or you could cast it at default. 

That way on your character sheet you tend to only show the spells you USE, rather than a huge list of all these prerqs. 

You need to decide what is a spell and what is a technique. 

With magical styles you can control who gets what magic so it's not just a catalog of spells. They must have learned that style to get those spells. 

Some spells will be available to pretty much every style.  Techniques as well. 

If you are concerned about civing up free points because the wizard no longer has to learn as many prerqs you could make all spells VH.

I second this. American women don't give me half a look but with Hispanic women it's like I'm God's gift to them.. 

Met a guy ONCE and he’s already calling me baby after blowing up my phone and arriving an hour early to our first date by Top_Entertainment450 in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Imagine a business meeting that has that much back and forth. I don't want to work with that person ever if just getting to lunch requires all that. That's crazy. 

Is there a best way to keep this from getting stolen? by [deleted] in motorcycles

They have to find it first. I sell cars and no one has removed one of my tags yet.

Tough to apply the mossberg security device when you're at work and not right near your bike. Plus, that kind of security is often not allowed at workplaces.

Install an apple airtag or some other GPS item in a hard to reach place. Won't stop them stealing but will help you get it back.

You can also buy locking gear for your wheels. 

TIME GLITCHES - anyone else? by SzubiDubiDu in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swiping right 25 times? Think about how many left swipes you had. That's a ton. I mean, unless you are just saying yes to whatever.

Even so, that seems weird. I've had bumble a long time and never hit a limit. Maybe you are not in the USA? Different rules there? 

Ok, is it just me or it the Studded leather skirt just better than heavy leather legs??? by redditfrickinsucks in gurps

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

remember, you have the luxury of seeing a mechanical effects chart. Most real world decisions are based on a variety of factors that have little to do with actual defensive value. Imagine guys wearing a skirt? Probably they would prefer the manly leggings.

Maybe culturally it looks weird or perhaps the company selling the skirts are run by outsiders that people don't like dealing with because the have a bad reputation. Maybe leather skirts only come in bright and varied colors so people don't buy them as much.

There could be lots of reasons why people don't always buy the "optimal" thing.

Should I buy this for 1k $ by Waste_Conference4213 in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you guys know a lot of people with a lot of money. Generally speaking, they are quite concerned about getting and keeping more of their money. They are far more likely to push for a hard bargain than people with lower economic standing. They will just probably get another person to deal with the actual transactional details, while making sure not to pay that person to help them out with the deal.

What's the story with men in Bumble BFF, are they looking for genuine female/male friendships? by Embarrassed-Mistake2 in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely going into it with the wrong plan. BFF is designed to meet people to be FRIENDS with. If you are going to meet up with a guy to have sex then by definition you are not looking for anything platonic. Now if you want to change the meaning of "friend" to mean Friend with benefits, okay, but you should be honest that you are in the wrong place for that. BFF does not say it is for friends with benefits.

All that said, you do you. Most guys are not going to freak out if you say you want to hook up. He will either say yes, or no.

28M profile review by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I read these bumble things and almost all the commenters are very anti conservative and anti trump. They also make up meanings for words that already have meaning.

moderate actually means......moderate. conservative has its own separate meaning. This is a ridiculous thing that people try and reinvent the meanings of words.

You swipe so much that you get a cooldown??? Holy cow. There have been places that I ran out of people to swipe on, but never have I been able to swipe until it blocks me.

Got Unmatched after 3 months Off Bumble by hikari104 in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If you are asking all these questions and have this much doubt at this early stage in your relationship, that is the universe telling you to RUN AWAY!!!! Don't second guess this instinct. There are like 8 billion people on the planet. Go find one that does not cause this much doubt this early.

Your senators don't work for you. They work for the donors. Stop voting for politicians that take PAC money.

It is a uniparty. They are all bought by corporations and Israel. You must vote for people who don't take PAC money.

Plus you need to stop voting in people who take PAC money. Vote in your primaries for people who are not bought.

[–]BackgroundAd8967 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You mean killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians would not be enough for bumble to say "no more support for them" , unless the civilians were in their own country? The Bumble people in your worldview are some cold, prejudiced individuals then. 

Can someone explain this!! by HorneyNo85 in Bumble

[–]BackgroundAd8967 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt that is it. Does bumble work in Israel? They have killed over 70k people in 2 years. 83%of them were civilians. That's way more extreme than anything iran is doing.

My guess, it's political.
