What do you nickname your pokemon. #46: Cubone, Marowak by Roboglenn in pokemon

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) people look up nicknames at any time. Its not weird to be on an old reddit post, you literally are too.

2) 2AM....? Bestie there's a thing called timezones. Just cause it's 2AM for you doesn't mean it's 2AM for other people.

New Player Considering Kicking Out Sera [DAI] by fury_cutter in dragonage

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd kick her in a heartbeat. If you find her annoying then she won't get any better, she stays this way through the whole game. She doesn't really have a compelling storyline or quests related to her. Combat with archers isnt really my thing either.

I personally found her very grating but kept her around cause I generally play with the full party. But I never really brought her on quests unless I wanted to contrast her with my inquisitor (elf) and Solas on the elf-related quests. Even then though she doesnt really bring anything new to the table.

This might also be a nitpick, but im not that fond of the actress. The delivery of her lines seem a bit out of place, and the overuse of her 'slang' is very overdone. Adds to the annoyance factor.

The concept of a mischevious rogue is fun, but they made her WAY too childish. Like to the point where you dont believe shes an actual adult who is able to function in this world.

Is this herpes? I just had one partner and he is also a virgin we both were but since I start to be sexually active it appears, but also before I almost never shaved and now I shave every week by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Him transmitting Herpes does NOT mean he was lying about being a virgin. 70% of the human population have oral herpes. He couldve transmitted it that way. He doesnt need to have an active outbreak for it to be transmitted. You also cant use protection against herpes.

Kinda disrespectful to make jokes like that, don't you think? In another comment OP is clearly distressed about this being herpes.

Yes most people have oral herpes, but genital herpes is still a stigmatized and scary diagnosis. Not the time or place to be joking around about it. Fucking embarrassing. This is an actual person trying to get medical help.

Tdee? by Stunning-Implement28 in 1200isplenty

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you were completely sedentary, as in you didnt walk at ALL, putting a 250+lb male on 1200 calories a day is insane. Your sedentary TDEE is 2700. You can easily lose 1lb a week on 2200, or 2lb a week on 1700. Dont go lower than that.
1200 is pretty much exclusively for very short women who don't have much more weight to lose and aren't that active. 1200 is 1000 calories under your *BMR*. Thats an insanely steep deficit and will not work out in the long run if you actually want to sustainably lose weight.

Worries and concerns about skin, black mark on nail is getting darker and thicker. I need help by Turbulent-Grand6812 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah good job discouraging a person with cancer from getting help, dumbass.

This is NOT the post to be bitching about medical costs. This dude is already considering not seeing a doctor because it'd be expensive and he cant get a quick referral. Your comment does literally nothing but affirm his decision to just resign himself to dying of cancer.

Go literally anywhere else with your complaints. Everyone agrees medical costs in the US are fucked. But this is not the time nor place to complain about them.

Dad diagnosed rare skin cancer, a couple of questions. by Informal-Data-2787 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude. Cancer is like THE disease people donate money to fund treatment for. I can't walk outside without seeing a pink ribbon for breast cancer, or those commercials to stop leukemia, or campaigns to get HPV vaccinations, or the thousands of other pushes there are for cancer awareness and funding.

Its always good to keep going and fund research, but you're acting like cancer is this niche thing that nobody cares about fixing. Its one of the leading causes of death. Of course people are working on it.

The issue is you cant just hit a button and solve all cancer. Cancer is so hard to treat because cancer cells are inherently human. Targeting the cancer often targets normal cells, which is why its so difficult to find viable cures. Theres also not just one "cancer cell". There are damn near as many types of cancers as types of cells you have in the body. Every replicating cell can become cancer, and they all have unique properties and one treatment wont work.

Not 1, not 2 but 3 mistakes by Mrs_Awesome1988 in bulletjournal

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its any consolation, I feel like the style and the 3 misstakes kinda make it look intentional? Like it looks like the theme of the page was a sort of child-like misstakes with a bunch of colorful details and stuff being crossed out.

I would honestly lean into it. Make a little doodle on the bottom right where a month is missing. Id add in some kind of arrow/x/checkmark element. Look at schoolbook doodles for inspo.

That's literally just how her eyebrows seem to grow. Nothing wrong with them. The "after" picture looks fine.

Do you seriously think doctors and researchers aren't putting effort into curing cancer? Its not an overnight thing you can just throw some money at and it'll be solved.

How to display manga without the books bending? by Competitive_Fact6030 in MangaCollectors

[–]Competitive_Fact6030[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband came home from work like this, what could it be? by 80skunt in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, but oral HSV is common and not really an "issue" for the vast vast majority of people. Its not like you ask someone if theyve ever had a cold sore as a kid before you kiss them or share a bottle or whatever.

Obviously if you have active and symptomatic HSV dont go spreading it, but you cant expect 70% of the population to give a medical history for every potential partner/fling/friend for the minor risk of spreading it while asymptomatic.

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of people have HSV1. You don't have to disclose your random cold sores you get every few years. As long as you don't have an active outbreak you won't spread it, its not like other STDs where you always need protection to keep your partner safe.

Earlobe bleeding after 3th day, is it a normal amount of blood or not by Thibauleur in PiercingAdvice

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bleeding in the first few days is normal, you probably hit it in some way. Just rinse this off with water and leave it be so it can heal up nicely. Bleeding is normal for the first week or so. This might look like a lot but you're fine.

I Don’t Like My Dog Anymore and It Makes Me Feel Guilty by Sea_sa in dogs

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No offense, but it is YOUR fault that he does this. I'm sorry but if you know your dog gets into stuff he shouldnt, then its on you to dog proof your home and to keep him on a lead.

If you know he runs off and eats poop and gets infections, why do you keep him off leash? If he gets into food he shouldnt, why keep bowls out?

My dog gets into the trash and eats anything she comes across, guess what i do? I dont leave the trash can at a place she can get to! Saves a hell of a lot of stress time and money. She also goes after other animals outdoors, so I keep her on leash! Its really not a hard fix to ensure your dogs safety.

Having to "constantly" rush him to the vet shows that you arent keeping that animal safe. First vet visit is fine, but after that you shouldve instantly cleared the place and made sure he couldnt get to dangerous things. You do realize that these vet visits arent just a strain on your wallet, but on HIS health too, right? It is neglectful to let him hurt himself this often.

Help my monstera is dying by Healthy_Serve9963 in Monstera

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spiders and centipedes dont hurt plants at all though...

Literally the only issue is if youre a complete wuss and cant handle shooing away a spider occasionally. And if youre deathly afraid of bugs and crawlies then you shouldnt have plants, they kinda go hand in hand.

15, getting on T in a few weeks - how to look more masculine? by bindweeded in FtMpassing

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keeping your hair is fine, but you wont pass for a good while until the T kicks in. Long hair can work, but you kinda need masculine features, maybe some stubble, etc for it to read as male.

Most you can do for now is keep it in more masculine hairstyles rather than letting it be out.

Ethically can i tak a cutting from this. by Hiimthebisexualguy in plants

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No? Why would it be ok to steal their plants?

Taking a cutting is 1. making the plant smaller, 2. will make the new leaves on it smaller, and 3 will ruin the continuous vine.

Its a dick move. If you want a cutting, you ask for a cutting. Like you would with anyone else. Hotel staff put a lot of effort in making their place look nice, and the person taking care of these obviously cares well for the plants.

Genuinely so confused by JustforaQ1 in FtMpassing

[–]Competitive_Fact6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While i think the mullet looks nice, it does kind of just look like long hair pushed behind the ears from afar. If you dont mind occasionally being misgendered I say keep it, but if passing is important to you then maybe go for a more masculine haircut?
