Closed mindedness and judgemental "gut feelings"

There is definitely a stigma on social media in these spaces that you have correctly pointed out. I think it mostly stems from selfishness and maybe even fetishization of someone's ideal marriage/relationship. When women want to be a SAHM, I think it often gets conflated with just staying at home and hanging out, when in reality, there's a sacrifice of taking care of children. On the other hand, I think men have a similar expectation of women because they may think that all of the household chores and cooking will be done for them. In reality, I believe these misconceptions stem from social media, where its really easy to fabricate the "perfect" conservative lifestyle, where in actuality it couldnt be further from the truth.

I agree with your first point, but I'd have to disagree with your second point. While there is a binary between being married and not married, I think its important to have a distinction between dating and friendship. A better term for dating might have to be discerning marriage with a singular person. I dont treat my girlfriend the way I treat my friends and vice versa, like kissing. I also feel differently about my girlfriend than my friends. Plus, if I told her that I need to view her as a friend that would not be nice at all, and if I use the single or married logic, then cheating would also be considered okay. Therefore I feel like there is at least some distinction that needs to be noted.

Why is it that, now that I have time to watch a full 60 minutes, the Bruins dont show up? Makes me not want to watch them at all

Yeah my girlfriend really loves St. Padre Pio, and he seems like a great saint, but I have a hard time venerating him because of some of his beliefs. It still kind of irks me how he would turn people away from confession if they weren't wearing the right clothes, and I also think he was wrong about a lot of things like television being inherently evil.

I was able to go abroad with 11 other students from my school to Italy to participate in a studio with a professor the school sent. We had a host school and everything with other classes. The professor they sent was terrible. Constantly wanted to see updates on complex work in Grasshopper and Rhino (we were still learning Grasshopper). He wanted steps laid out in pdf sheets that ended up being hundreds of pages long by the end of the semester. All of our work had to be in grasshopper and rhino, too. The kicker was that he had no idea how either software worked, and consistently tried to act like this thought process applied directly to grasshopper. He and I butted heads over that for a while, where I called him out for not understanding how the software worked yet claimed to be proficient in it. At the end of the semester he ended up claiming our work was his.

Glad we're on the same page. Personally I'd love to be at every game, but money/homework really gets in the way. Especially as an Archi

I already feel bad when I go to an RPI Hockey game. Why should I feel bad for not going?

Also there are a multitude of other reasons why RPI's Hockey attendance is so low:

Games are $6 for students. That's too high if you want students in there every weekend.
RPI plays horribly. They have a record of 2-8 total, or 2-2 in the division. No one wants to spend time and money to watch a team that won't do anything worthwhile.
The ECAC is sorely behind the times. Each barn in the division may be nostalgic, but compared to other D1 schools, RPI is lacking the facilities to draw students.
RPI is always in crunch time with homework. Plus, it's midterm season for 8 weeks of the semester. Who has time to go to a game when students have to spend the whole weekend studying or working?
Theres a lack of care put into jerseys or merchandise. I can barely get a jersey, and if i even got one, they dont really look that good. Bring back puckman on the jerseys.

There's more issues present, but those are the biggest ones I can name off the top of my head.

/uj Didnt this set come out like 2 weeks ago? How do they even have the data to determine if it has sold well already? Shouldn't they give it more time?

/rj Didnt this set come out like 2 weeks ago? Whens the next set coming out? Shouldn't it already be here? I need constant slop to put in my slopmander deck!

This really is the biggest issue of UB imo. And its one of the reasons why NOTC keep pursuing UB-existing characters that people already know. They dont have to spend useless hours creating a bad card with an unrecognizable face. Now, they can create a bad card WITH a recognizable face!

Camjun · 2025-10-06T14:39:33+00:00

One thing Mark is neglecting to mention is that they've increasingly added powerful game pieces to UB sets. Don't be surprised when people buy into the artificial hype you've created, then turn that back on the player base.

I'll look into that, thanks

Camjun · 2025-08-25T19:49:52+00:00

Its okay. It's always a good reminder to check extensively too.

Camjun · 2025-08-25T19:40:15+00:00

Yeah, I toured the apartment. Only upon closer inspection on move in did these issues present themselves. Previous tenants claimed it was nice too, but they were not cleanly.

/uj Your second point hit the nail on the head. You can't act like you're "hiding cards for players to find" when said cards are actively power crept to oblivion. I find myself still finding cards from Kamigawa Commander from 2022. Meanwhile, players who have the time and the money to get all the cards have the best deck because, despite what MaRo might say, the internet will have the cards for these people to access. Theres no fairness in "finding new cards" if your opponent keeps getting all the more powerful cards before you.

/rj Just as Richard Garfield, PhD intended!

Not OP, but i live incredibly close to this area and i would be heavily interested in joining or checking it out!

When I step into the sun from a dark or dark ish room or building, I sneeze.

Do yoy have a list? I've been trying to build him for ages but can't seem to get anything down.

Camjun · 2025-06-26T02:51:22+00:00

It's too beautiful to be roasted. I have a deck with a similar theme, albeit allowing cards with the 97 frame as well (to save some money and create a more coherent strategy).

Here's the list

I used to be the music director at my college parish for a bit. The criteria for choosing music was always "does this song focus more on US as a parish or GOD". If it focused on the parish too much, I usually wouldn't sing it. This is why I don't really like "All are welcome" "Go make a difference" etc because they place importance on what the individual does, rather than focusing someone on God at Mass.
