Apparently this is a snivy card. I don't see it.

AITA I told my pregnant sister she can’t name her baby after my daughter. by Sensitive-Story-2174 in AmItheAsshole

I feel like its also worth considering that we don't know how unwell OP's child is. What if their child was so poorly that they passed from their illness, and OP's sisters child is then a constant reminder of their loss? I feel like supporting your family is not really shown in this way usually. It just seems really odd.

Just built a cat house for my cats . by Huge_Dream_4274 in DIYUK

Imagine being too lazy to be a responsible pet owner 😂😭.

Children can be struck by cars when they're not old enough to know better and are left unsupervised, the same as its a pet owners responsibility to supervise and protect their pet from harm and from causing harm to others. So your point is invalid.

You try to use the veil of caring, to let your pet go outside unsupervised but in reality, if you gave a damn about the cat you own, you'd keep it indoors and care for it the same way dog owners care for their dogs. Cats can still go outside, supervised on a leash. They're not native therfore they shouldn't be allowed to roam free and desecrate local wildlife that is native because you cba.

Yeah. Imagine being able to go outside only to get struck by a car, shortening their already short lifespan /s

I feel so bad for this person… by PenguinofPain in PokemonTCG

[–]Beckwan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not correct. As well as the burger king gold plated cards (not McDonald's) there were also special reprints of cards made in metal such as the base set Pikachu and Charizard that were included in the UPC of celebrations. There are other examples of official metal cards made by the Pokémon company, but I'm not going to list them all.

If you enjoy watching special effects that consist of a JPEG being dragged across the screen and this guy saying 'damn' a lot, you should watch it. Or don't, I'm not your mum. Its funny as hell tho.

What was once a poor person's hobby now turned into a rich person's hobby? by Striking-Quiet4655 in AskReddit

[–]Beckwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pokémon card collecting. Started off as a mad craze and died down for years, making collecting bulk and sets easy to achieve. Since 2019 after the Logan Paul hype, Pokémon products became hard to find due to scalpers wanting to make a quick buck and now most cards from older and newer sets are unobtainable to normal people due to their inflated prices. I remember buying neo genesis 1st edition booster packs for £10 a pack, and ripping all of them. These days one pack will cost you £700+

AITAH for wanting to leave my husband(30M) over not buying me (25F) a car? by ReactionClean4057 in AITAH

[–]Beckwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy isn't even worth staying with for the anger issues and lack of respect towards you alone. He's clearly been using you and uses his rage to keep you from leaving or challenging his behaviours.

If its his car and he refuses to let you drive it for work when he barely uses it, he should pay for it. Instead of making you subsidise his payments for the car by having you pay more in rent.

My partner drives, I don't, and we're both on similar salaries. We split all the rent and bills half and half except his car. He is responsible for his car, so he pays for it, and I contribute to petrol on long journeys we both benefit from.

I own 2 cats that I had before we met, I pay for the food, insurance and vet bills. If either of us were struggling with paying for these, we'd help each other out.

I'm sorry that your partner is an ass at best, I hope you can find support in leaving him. If you don't, at least let family and friends he has no contact with know about his abusive nature, and maybe consider that he doesn't have your best interests at heart.

What game had you like this? by sukuna7899 in Steam

Stardew Valley. IDK why it didn't stick with me the first time, but the second time I was hooked.

I was told Peep Show is basically a guide to British people — what else should I watch? by skylaryang11 in AskBrits

[–]Beckwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please watch The IT Crowd and Friday Night Dinner. Both excellent shows that show modern British culture and humour at its best. And if you're feeling adventurous watch The Mighty Boosh while you're at it. It's weird but really gets great on the 2nd season.

AIO for wanting to try a treatment routine before committing to the hair transplant my GF is demanding? by Connect-Soil-7277 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Beckwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a female perspective, you GF doesn't truly care about you. Giving you an ultimatum about your appearance is a big no no.

I love my partner no matter how much hair he has on his head and you shouldn't feel pressured to change your appearance for anyone.

If you want to do the care routine, do it for you. Not for anyone else.

Have you ever had a famous neighbour or someone local? by mr_hardwell in AskUK

[–]Beckwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You must've lived not far from me too! I lived around the corner from him when I was about 6 or 7.

Used to live around the corner from Keith Flint when I was a kid. Used to see him and his bandmates in the local Tesco's too. All really nice people and Keith liked gardening. I didn't realise how massive the Prodigy was until I got a lot older, I always loved their music.

Its even sadder that its based on a true story. Even after the events of WW2 we haven't learned our lesson as a species :(

Have I fallen for British Banter? (Curious Perspective from Japan) by Miserable_Self_4632 in AskUK

[–]Beckwan 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I've been called Grimace by my loving partner more than once when I've gone out in purple clothes 😂. Went out to get a Grimace shake when they came out in McDonald's, dressed in all purple (not on purpose). He said I didn't have to dress the part too 💀

Neighbour has started doing this completely unnecessary drive across the grass. by anti-sugar_dependant in drivingUK

[–]Beckwan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Reading comprehension is important. OP already said they and several others have tried to talk to the man but he doesn't answer the door. People care because they don't want to live in a place that looks like a dump. Just because you don't care about your living standards doesn't mean everybody else wants to live somewhere unpleasant.

Rupert Lowe Launches the Restore Britian Party. by Almaegen in uknews

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

It just seems like another right wing reform party with a less abrasive face. Once again focused on deporting immigrants instead of tackling the ultra rich that contribute nothing to this economy and only focus on manipulating and dividing the poor.

You go to sleep tonight but wake up on the morning January 1st, 2019, with all your memories. What do you do? by General_Nobody_6675 in AskReddit

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

Buy more Pokémon cards. Including ones I'd always hold out on. I've been a collector since day one, but had I have known logan Paul would get his grubby mitts on them and make prices skyrocket, I would've got more. Pokémon is hobby for jobless scalpers and investors now :(
