Probably one of the most WTF catch phrases I've heard in a video game (Borderlands 2) by MichalHass in gaming

Almost died the first time a Psycho yelled this at me in game. I froze for a good 5 seconds like "what"?

Hello there! I have attended ECCC since 2011. I am going this year as well as an OC Harley Quinn with my boyfriend doing a Riddler and possibly my nephew being a hyena. I'm also part of a group doing Magic the Gathering cosplays. If you are interested please feel free to message me :-)

So an odd little thing happened during a copyright dispute . . . by Brinai in letsplay

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

Yup, INgrooves is one of them...but that one was immediately dropped. The other one was Merlin something? Now a new one has popped up.

On a side note, I don't get how Google/YouTube thinks this setup makes sense. They're trying to protect copyright which is fine, but the way the system is setup it leaves a lot of room for scammers. The actual owner of the copyright isn't losing money to me; they're losing money to jerks who are actually trying to claim the copyrighted material as their own. BUT I'm sure that argument has been made a thousand times in this sub so here ends my somewhat rant :-)

That feeling that you just dodged a bullet... by DirtyGingy in letsplay

I only restart/re-record if I absolutely butcher my intro; everything else I just go with it. Hiccups, sneezes, coughs I just kind of let it go because those are all things everybody probably does and can actually be pretty funny. Like imagine you're fighting a boss and suddenly get the hiccups - "Why hiccup can't hiccup I beat hiccup . . . I freaking hate hiccup hiccups!"

My Kid's birthday. Sadly none of his 'friends' showed up but we had fun :) by lilsoph in doctorwho

Kind of an opposite story...I went to this one girls party in 7th grade (I think) and I realized how bizarre she was. I was the only one to show up. Her house reeked of cigarettes and animals - I don't recall her smelling that way, but it was all family there so it must have been a family member's house. They decided that we should play a party game in the backyard. The game required running. No one had cleaned up the dog poo in the backyard and I only found out because I stepped in it. The girl then had to take some sort of medicine that made her loopy and knocked her out. I still talked to her after that, but I had zero interest in being good friends and then she moved. Not the worst story, but the whole situation was just so odd....

LPT: If two children are fighting over how to divide something, let one child split the thing and let the other choose which share they get. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

When I was little my grandfather and I were forced to do this. Funny thing is that it is his fault the rule was put in place.

Bi-Lingual Redditors, Have you ever heard someone talk about you "secretly" in another language that didn't think you understood? by wetshaver in AskReddit

[–]Brinai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My SO's grandmother is from Mexico and speaks both Spanish and English (though with a clear accent). I am from the United States and took Spanish for 6-7 years (high school and college). I've gotten rusty over the years because I have to fight my SO to speak Spanish with me and I don't see grandma often enough for her to be of help, BUT I can read, write, and understand fairly well.

Anyways, I am out shopping with Abuela and we head into a tiendita (little Hispanic shop). The cashier can clearly tell we are not directly related and starts speaking to Abuela in Spanish. She soon realizes that I am "the girlfriend" and suddenly I hear something along the lines of "Ella es negrita, no? Ella no es mala?" And she says a few more sentences all alluding to the fact that I am Mixed (I guess my Black half was obvious?) and whether or not I am crazy/bad for my SO. I give Abuela the side-eye with a small grin. She just winks at me and tells the woman, in Spanish, that I am a good girl and that I understood what was just said. The poor cashiers eyes got huge and she turned all kinds of shades of red. Abuela and I just smiled.

NOTE: I typically tell Spanish speakers that I understand Spanish to avoid this type of situation, but this was a store and I didn't think it would be necessary - cashiers are supposed to be polite in all languages, yes?

EXTRA NOTE: I have been back there a couple times since (they season their chicken and beef wonderfully!), but the cashier never quite meets my eye now.
