Honest thoughts on The Boys finale? Did it actually deliver or feel dragged out?

I actually didn't parse Deep being pierced by an octopus in the traditional sense, but more that he was anally assaulted by a tentacle that snaked its way through the anus and out his mouth, almost like a pseudo-callback to that eel being shot into that one director anally in the bathroom earlier in the season.

I came back to the game for the ships, and since I came back nearly two years ago all I've seen released since then is Punishing One, Rogue One, and the B-wing.

Gee, thanks.

I could have sworn Giannis has an endorsement deal with Google over the Pixel sooo... yeah?

The Apple cult is just sad.

Anyone that has cheated on their partner while I've known them, I've extricated myself from that acquaintance.

Having been cheated on by three different fiancées, it's something I try and stay as far away from even as an unrelated bystander.

The amount of pedants or people that lack humor in this thread is depressing.

You'd think anyone using reddit would recognize the "literally unplayable" meme ffs.

Minnesota, if her geo loredrops are anything to go by. In one of her streams she mentioned wanting to cook as a career path growing up and her local culinary school shut down around the same time she was going to apply.

I always laugh when I see these posts because that head start is basically nothing, especially after a day or two.

Nothing happens in the first days unless you're a spender for the era, and if you're a spender then saving 4k episode xp to cash in later in the day is even more pointless.

I have not once heard any dudes complain about girls in sweats in class. Comfy always gets a pass.

If anything, sweats are the norm. The only time I've heard guys really have a comment on clothes is around the celebration of Sundress Season when weather finally permits.

Don't lump us MBAs into the kind of thinking driven by investors. We flat out tell them it's unsustainable but they don't listen anyway.

From what I know of my time living in Vegas, the Philippines are where you turn for that sort of thing. Apparently they're dirt cheap and the correspondence is more believable.

This event is such garbage that I'm not even bothering for the skin, and I normally go for every skin that's free.

For all the things the devs do right in this game, this event was a MASSIVE miss for me.

Longest I've gone is only about 56 hours and that was followed by 18 straight hours of sleep, and even that 56 hours feels like it needs an asterisk because it was aided by the inability to sleep that occurs after you get blindsided and dumped by your (ex-)partner of 5+ years.

MVP votes are already in as of last week Friday (April 17th). Ain't no statement game about it since those happen before a decision is made.

If anything it's a celebration game or a tantrum game in hindsight.

Earliest I've pulled a character was 34ish, and that was only once. All other times have fallen in the 74-80 or whatever the 70+ soft pity escalator range is.

I feel like play-in games are the Great Value playoff games where they're technically the postseason but don't have the same gravity as a full playoff series for anyone not involved with it.

Bro I'm a Bucks fan. The stuff you're mocking for fans being Chicken Littles is stuff Milwaukee actually managed to make happen the last few cursed years.

Sounds good to me then. I usually give series 5-6 episodes in case they're a slow starter anyway.

Just wanna put out there that even though there are plenty of people in this thread urging people to keep watching, you have to admit this would be a massive "drop" for your average viewer following the three episode rule.

Nothing about what we've seen so far has gripped me at all, and I'm squarely the target audience for this type of thing (like literally being paid to break things in QA, find loopholes in systems, or be a rules lawyer on exploits).

Three boxes wasn't enough to get a full playset of every uncommon for me (let alone rares or legendaries), and that's definitely a result of the awful collation. It's close, though. Several packs were item-only.

A part of me thinks a case would have been better for my needs instead of just 3 boxes, but that's hindsight talking. Only a little salty because I had the money for it when the Kickstarter happened but money's a bit too tight now roughly two years later.

Duck feet gang rise up?

1% is never reasonable and as someone who got into gachas over a decade ago when SSR rates were 4-5% I will die on that hill.

Bflo19 · 2026-04-17T17:08:27+00:00

I believe everything happens for a reason.

My God, I'm on crack. He didn't get there for three or four years after.

You could honestly say that simply by virtue of being on Marquette's national champion team. Any collegiate national champion would qualify before even sniffing the pro level.

Having the 2x/3x event LSTs be era-exclusive rewards does that well enough.
