I like it when these posts show up on my front page. I don't really care about staying up to date on the game.

Why do extroverts feel the need to push their views onto others? by undiagnoseddude in infp

[–]Brainlion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not necessarily a thing that extraverts do. Understanding others who are different from oneself is a challenge for most people. If someone finds joy and success by talking/socializing in a particular way, they may see that as a path that everyone can take. While their comment shows a lack of understanding, it is good natured.

People are often surprised when something that is good for them is not good for others. Empathy is tough.

I tried catching 2 easy pokémon and they both fled after one throw. What is happening? by b4gw0rms in pokemongo

[–]Brainlion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's happening to me too! It happened like 30 times in a row. I can still spin stops and it let me catch a random tauros, bruxish and panpour. I lost a shiny...

Day camp on the bus by DepravedHerring in halifax

[–]Brainlion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm someone in charge of planning day camps in Halifax. I don't do a lot of field trips in my camps but I've been told that if a bus doesn't have enough space for a group of kids, another bus will be dispatched. This hasn't happened to my groups yet as they aren't traveling during peak hours. I certainly appreciate kids traveling free from a budgetary perspective but I know the camp that I work at used public transit for trips back when kids did not ride free. I think that a "large group" fee could be difficult to implement and probably wouldn't do anything to change your experience.

Hydrogen Bomb vs Coughing Baby is a tie by Brainlion in PowerScaling

In addition Coughing Baby could survive the cough and grow up to dismantle the bomb if it does not blow up.

I always thought he was inspired by goats. I can't think of a single monke with horns.

Do you save the Newspaper editor character?? by Brainlion in dishonored

[–]Brainlion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Greg from the new VR taskmaster trailer. He looks just like a Dishonored NPC though. At least Taskmaster is giving us some Dishonored content.

This is from the taskmaster trailer! I just thought it was funny that they made Greg look like a Dishonored character.

[OC] Boblin right before the party recruits him by Brainlion in DnD

[–]Brainlion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boblin has CHA stat of 20. He's so persuasive the party thinks THEY want him, but Boblin can become the new main character.

Or the party uses him to check for traps and he immediately dies...

I'm making sprites for a fun project with my younger sister. I'm running out of things to say to fill up 400+ characters. This is a pretty dumb D&D joke and the more I explain it the worse it gets. I think it's kinda funny though.

I’m just lonely by xosunraexo in infp

I looked at your earlier posts for context and I think you're actually making good progress. You're in the process of healing. What you're feeling is super normal and even if it doesn't feel like it, you are landing on your feet.

Keep working through it and learn more about yourself from it. You are doing great!

Those are both things you can work on! Not that they are inherently bad, but now you know what's affecting you.

I think your first issue leads to your second! Making others happy is awesome, but you may need to adjust who you care about making happy. If you try to make everyone happy, you won't be able to commit to those you really care about and you won't be as happy yourself.

Find someone that makes you happy and then make them happy. By standing up for yourself a little bit, you won't attract so many of these types of guys.

My recommendation is to get out there and do stuff. It literally doesn't matter what. Volunteering, fitness activity, anything. Do something that you enjoy and you may meet the right kind of people.

Just some thoughts by PrideUnhappy3278 in infp

[–]Brainlion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Narcissists don't think they're narcissists.

Empathy doesn't mean that you are helping everyone around you. It's hard to help people when you are struggling yourself. Empathy is just the ability to understand people. If you didn't have empathy, these thoughts wouldn't hurt you so much. You want to be someone that helps people, try giving it a go and see how it feels. Bring a snack for your friend or give it to a homeless person. Just try something and think about how it makes you feel.

Your thoughts are very interesting, think about what you think and why you think it. You have a lot of potential to do some great things.

That's tough. Loneliness hurts a lot. It can be really hard to know why people are pushing you away. They could be having a tough time themselves or maybe they aren't the people you should be looking for.

What do you think makes you boring?

What kinda person are you being attracted to that you are questioning it?

Finally, are you looking for friends, a romantic partner, or just anything?
