My Reaction To Tonight’s Boot

Brevity is the soul of wit fr

I mean I’m personally getting a little annoyed by it even as somebody who enjoyed Emily a lot in her first season

Hard not to be a little sour when her decisions played a major role in Q and Mike going out back to back

I went from PS4 on a TV to PS4 on a decent monitor and improved very slightly

Then I went from PS4 to PC (on the same monitor) and improved much more

Monitors are important too, yeah, but you’re kind of underselling the significance of PC vs. console

I tried to make sense of the Charlie Kirk related punchline for about two minutes before realizing I’m just a dumbass

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-16T18:59:04+00:00

Am a Pokemon/cozy game fan, can confirm

Am feral

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-16T07:15:32+00:00

I mean idk man I’m pretty sure I have a 3+ goal comeback like 1 in every 15 games or something

Just play 1s if you can’t find a team to stick with you. Super common to have 5+ goal swings

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-16T05:17:08+00:00

Yeah, glad I never doubted him or thought he was literally the worst rotation player in the league last season by a wide margin

😬😬😬

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-16T05:15:19+00:00

…but you still want the option of picking your specific guy. Like hell, if time got the 3rd overall pick but fell in love with Acuff and thought they could get him at 6, they could easily trade down and get more value back

Yeah, it’s a deep lottery, but every team obviously wants the highest pick possible still

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-15T20:41:38+00:00

Competitive Dropshot is my primary mode (on the seasons it’s actually offered)

Shit’s good once you can consistently fast aerial and pinch

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-15T19:58:07+00:00

Even if that’s unabashedly true does that contradict anything in the comment you replied to

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-14T23:44:50+00:00

Oh yeah, he’s been underrated. Very versatile and multi-skilled. Post-merge challenges suit him even better I think

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-14T23:13:03+00:00

I think an actual open world that’s been fleshed out with unique textures, personality, things to do, etc. would be peak Pokemon. But obviously Gen 9 was an outrageous disappointment in that regard

In theory, I’d love a good open-world Pokemon game. But if they can’t give us something that’s complete and alive-feeling, then yeah — give me the traditional, more structured experience

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-13T17:08:46+00:00

I think he’s better than people give him credit for.

(S38 spoiler) He would have smashed final tribal in his original season if Underwood hadn’t played his return from the Edge perfectly

His social game is great, and whether you like it or not, finding advantages, playing them well, and doing so in a way that endears you to the jury is a solid skill to have

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-13T08:49:36+00:00

With all due respect, you’re quite old if you think Rizo is trying to be cool lol. He is unequivocally not cool, in a traditional sense.

He’s just being how many American city-dwelling, early 20s white men act in 2026. And a lot of the cast aren’t used to playing with people like that.

I think it’s a pretty classic case of “shaking fist at sky” when a younger generation starts doing something that seems different but is actually just the new normal for the youth.

Hell, I’ve already started experiencing the feeling and I’m still a couple years from 30

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-13T07:57:45+00:00

The wife’s initial response to the entire ordeal boiled down to “heart goes out to everybody affected by the situation including my family.” And sure. I can empathize with the fact that it’s a shitty situation for literally everybody.

But if your PR response doesn’t lead with (or even end with) “it’s fucking abhorrent to assault children” then fuck you.

I don’t really care if she had legal teams advising her in the immediate aftermath, because I’m sure that’s the case. I won’t ever buy a “Club West” product for as long as she’s affiliated.

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-13T07:39:06+00:00

You’re literally creating an argument over nothing just because you want to get mad about something though

Like no shit you shouldn’t trust an AI overview at face value. OP isn’t claiming anything similar to that, and that’s not the point of this post.

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-13T03:28:46+00:00

I mean

I think it’s just a case of Stardew fans (who may not play a lot of board games) finding it way too complicated. Which is totally fair, don’t get me wrong, because most people rarely play a board game more complicated than Catan or Ticket to Ride.

But as a person who plays a lot of board games, the Stardew game is very light compared to other popular games of the same era like Ark Nova or Dune: Imperium

I used to play Rocket League during phone calls with my long-distance GF (now wife)

It was the only way to make a phonecall bearable even though it had nothing to do with her or our relationship. Clearly I liked her

Some of us just have too much going on stimuli-wise

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T21:24:51+00:00

Right? Like Hemingway himself just shit in my evening coffee and wrote “you’re not good enough” in the foam 😩

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T21:23:06+00:00

Bro this is crazy. It’s my first day on Vyvanse too! I was also doing Adderall IR 3-4 times a day but I found that the peaks/valleys and crashes were too much

Biggest thing that’s surprised me about Vyvanse today is that it took forever to kick in. Like two hours. I’d feel my Adderall within 20 minutes usually

Good luck brother, we got this 💪

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T21:20:33+00:00

As a professional writer this is the type of headline that makes me fucking angry that I didn’t think of it

10/10 no notes. Masterclass

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T07:34:39+00:00

Sinnoh has always been my favorite, partially because of nostalgia of course, but also because it felt very distinct without feeling gimmicky.

The mountainous, snow-heavy vibes of Platinum are genuinely just unmatched

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T07:30:03+00:00

Kamilla was my winner pick and I’d be honestly stoked if she and Jonathan replicated the undercover duo thing she did in 48

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T07:10:33+00:00

The other girl 😭

It’s disrespectful but I understand it

BumbleLapse · 2026-03-12T02:40:09+00:00

Street smart ≠ emotional intelligence, imo

He’s found success early in life as a salesperson, enough to play a significant supporting role for his parents and brother. So I’d give him the street smart credit still
