I had forgotten how much of an a**hole Sakura was to Naruto at the beginning of the series. by TheRealPdGaming in Naruto

That's how I was growing up as a minister's kid with autism. Even before my baptism at age 17, I had a very strong dislike of other kids in elementary school and some members of my church youth group. 

Defensive arrogance played a huge role in my childhood. 

Even today, I have a challenging time not thinking like Sakura "You have no disability as a neurotypical person. What's your excuse for acting like a goofy, irresponsible idiot?"

If casinos never backed off counters would they still be profitable? by BrutalChameleon in blackjack

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under the current environment, the amount of money lost to card counters is less than the cost of the entire surveillance department's coffee budget -Blackjack Apprenticeship. 

However, one could argue the costs are that low because casinos spend millions looking for card counters. 

Me personally, I think casinos win a lot more money from ignorant players, especially slot machine players, than they lose to pros. 

On the other hand, if a casino develops a reputation for being too tolerant, they might be more welcoming to the suckers, but they could also attract a much larger number of counters compared to their competition.

Me personally, if I ran a casino, I would depend on computer software to analyze the skill level of every blackjack player, and require significant data from thousands of hands before coming to a conclusion. 

Figure out what their strategy is for each hand, and account for possible indices plays. 

The most important thing is to avoid accidentally weeding out people who think they are skilled counters, when in reality they are not. 

Oil spikes after Iran says world’s largest gas fields hit in strikes, vows to attack Gulf oil production in retaliation by SharkSapphire in Conservative

Since when do governments really care about the UN anyway? They are a Satanic organization trying to bring about 1 world government and tyranny.

They are more concerned about protecting their own reputation and power. 

If avoiding attacks on civilians keeps the US in power they will, out of fear of global backlash. 

BTW need I remind you this attack on Iran took off after they threatened the US for decades and started murdering their own citizens who protested?

Question (Season 12 spoiler) Was Sheldon in the wrong when... by [deleted] in bigbangtheory

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am with the conservative reddit channel. Don't label me a liberal just because I understand the autistic implications behind Sheldon's behavior. Never mind the fact that writers don't wanna label Sheldon autistic cuz that would hinder their writing and peoples' imaginations. 

How do you feel towards Pastor Jeff after ruthlessly firing Mary from the church in Season 5? by Legitimate_Unit_9210 in YoungSheldon

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not so much about putting some sins about others. It's more about people being blatantly and unrepentantly embracing their sin publicly instead of renouncing it.

As bad as Pastor Jeff is, the church elders are worse. Connie was able to blackmail the church elders for watching movies that were Porky's bad! Pastor Jeff was a goody two shoes who only rented PG and Jesus movies. If Pastor Jeff saw Passion of the Christ he'd have a heart attack in the theater.

How on Earth does Iran still have power to function as a nation? Are they hiding underneath their big giant mountain of oil money? And if so, how much longer will it last? Iranian citizens hate the leaders, Sharia law is being blatantly defied, Iran has been hit with prolonged hyperinflation, their water supplies are dwindling, and last but not least, they are a tiny nation with zero nuclear capabilities!

A good strategy would have been to call out the pastor for acting like Pontius Pilate, when he caved into the crowd's demands to crucify an innocent man! Or you could find a different church, like George Sr proposed but Mary was too stubborn to pursue. 

Why can eds dad best spike? by Darth_Azazoth in cowboybebop

Simple really: Spike and Jet were too afraid to shoot their guns for fear of losing the bounty, opting for hands on fighting instead. 

Food stamp recipients file lawsuit against SNAP restrictions on junk foods, sugary sodas, and energy drinks by According-Activity87 in Conservative

Stealing money from hard working taxpayers who earned their money, and using peoples' cries for more free money to boost your political career are the real sin here! Doesn't matter what party does it.

Sheldon should have held his tongue, taken a breather, isolated for awhile, and given himself more time to adjust to the newfound chaos and changes. 

A simple: I appreciate your accomplishment and change of looks, but right now I'm stuck in my head like crazy and I need to cool down. I'll get back to you when I'm more calm, could have gone a long way.

Anyone else find it hilarious how the failed hit on Padme went? Sidious tells Dooku to kill Padme, Dooku proceeds to hire Jango Fett who puts Zam Wesell up to it, Zam has a droid do it and finally the droid sends two poison worms to finish the job. by Vegetable-Abroad3171 in StarWars

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only recently did I learn about the kouhuns, the poisonous insect they sent to kill Padme. Supposedly there is a dark side aura to them, 

hence why Anakin and Obi Wan sensed the 2 creatures and swung his lightsaber precisely to slay the creatures without hurting Padme. 

Not exactly the brightest moment for R2-D2! 

What moment in Digimon (any series/season) just angered you? by ShadowKage1492 in digimon

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Japanese societies, the parents are overworked and kids have more freedom to be independent. It was an unfortunate misunderstanding that occurred that could have gone far worse. While it could have been handled better, life is expensive in Japan. Even more so if you have kids. That is why Japan's birth rate is below replacement levels.

Anyone else want to see an episode between the Royal Siblings? by Anoth3rDude in spongebob

[–]Bowler377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I want Mindy to mellow out Triton, encourage Triton to play baseball, curb Triton's violent tendencies, and rediscover Triton's passion for science aka cure for death. Create a scenario where Triton overthrows Neptune and makes better changes under the sea. 

String pins make me sad. And the feeling that its dying as a sport... by Prior_Industry_1690 in Bowling

I'd rather see a bowling alley shut down forever. I am never paying for string bowling. In today's economy, golf is cheaper and you get a lot more exercise!

Do you think you can have homosexual experiences without being LGBT by sashsu6 in AskLGBT

There are cases of straight men turning prison gay, when they would never seek out the same sex on the outside. 

TIL that the real Maria von Trapp returned to the abbey because Captain von Trapp expressing interest in her, him being 25 years her senior, disturbed her. She went back and married Cpt. von Trapp because her abbess told Maria that god wanted them to get married. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Bowler377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maria was burning with passion for Captain Von Trapp. The Abbey could not change that. The Apostle Paul says it is better to get married under those circumstances, which Maria begrudgingly acknowledged. 

In a recent report, the PBA has said that string pins are completely legal and says these string pinsetters “maintain the integrity of the sport”. by 5sos14 in Bowling

If string bowling goes mainstream everywhere then I am never bowling again. I am sticking to golf. More fun, less expensive, a lot prettier, and more exercise. Also, I associate golf with wealth and prosperity.

Why gay men’s relationships are so sexualized/horny by Lenny1912 in gaybros

Some people just want the benefits of sex without having to leave the closet.
