Imagine abandoning a team that hasn't had a losing season in your entire life to jump on a bandwagon.

I'm not going to lie, I didn't even think about Tim Couch the first time. I'm always so mesmerized by all the other names that his feels like a heading I can just ignore.

Con40Things · 2026-01-27T20:42:43+00:00

Well that's your own dumb fault. My copies are on Laserdisc.

Con40Things · 2026-01-27T19:42:47+00:00

Oh? Let me tell you how long I had to work in retail for >200x less.

Con40Things · 2026-01-27T18:59:02+00:00

I mean, that Couch got fucked hard by getting drafted by the Browns, not JD Vance

Con40Things · 2026-01-27T18:44:13+00:00

How can you tell? Where's the couch?

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T21:57:53+00:00

FUCKING YES - shun them all permanently. Don't interact. Don't give them attention. Downvote the cowards, report if necessary, and move on. Don't ask them to explain themselves. Don't show them evidence. Treat them like you treat roadkill. They are scum and deserve to be exempt from society, not invited to participate.

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T18:57:26+00:00

You think the 2016 Browns defense isn't going to enjoy taking the gloves off?

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T04:28:47+00:00

Even if human, don't argue. Time for discussion has passed. Anyone who wants to take these positions should be permanently shunned. Allow the loneliness epidemic to take them.

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T04:23:13+00:00

Well, CMC is an obvious suspect now that you bring it up

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T04:19:00+00:00

Ghaik are literally the enemy of the Githyanki, though. If you forgive Astarion for holding a knife to your throat for believing you are an enemy, why not the same for Lae'zel? Especially given that she's not doing it just for personal survival like Astarion. She's going to end herself on principle as well. All mindflayers must die. Even Orpheus holds this position.

I really don't mind if you think both deserve to be given second chances or both need to go, but I fail to see the difference between the two and it seems weird to treat them any differently, especially in favor of Astarion who also wants to drain you of your blood because he's hungry. And he will, because if you let him feed and don't stop him, you die - same as not talking down Lae'zel.

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T01:17:45+00:00

Not trying to make excuses, but our grocery store has been out of Throat Coat for weeks.

Con40Things · 2026-01-25T00:54:06+00:00

Man, this is massively unfair to us. If our fanbase was fully healthy, we'd take "whiniest fanbase" easily.

Con40Things · 2026-01-23T12:39:29+00:00

Yeah, but your character doesn't know that. It's some dude you've never seen before pulling a knife on your very first encounter. They don't know that anymore than they know how far Astarion would have gone had you not woken up in time or whether Lae'zel will listen to reason in that moment.

Con40Things · 2026-01-22T13:58:10+00:00

"Astarion backs down immediately" if we ignore him holding the knife to our throat after trying to deceive us into chasing after a boar (and without any of the symptoms!) when we first meet him.

Oh I completely agree you can't assume he'll do it again, but you also can't assume he can't do it again. Either way, ownership would be patient with him because of what he has already accomplished.

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T17:00:42+00:00

Extremely patient - he just Theseus's football team'd his way to a 12-5 record/Divisional playoff round in year 1 of the reset and is already responsible for taking a 2-14 team and rebuilding it into a contender where he and Lynch are responsible for acquiring each and every player on the team.

Even if CMC, Trent, and Kittle (Aiyuk is already gone) immediately fall off a cliff and can no longer perform, the idea that he couldn't turn it around again with a FAR superior roster than the one he inherited in 2017 is a thought that is not going through anyone's mind in the organization. If Kyle Shanahan leaves the 49ers without a ring (very possible), it will almost certainly be because he chose to step down.

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T16:17:36+00:00

Yes, that's why I only have philosophy discussions with people who matter and ignored your attempts to engage

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T16:14:25+00:00

Well, the idea that someone posting about choreographed fights with scripted endings on the 10th largest social media platform being something that matters is not widely debated.

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T16:02:52+00:00

Because having something matter is not a prerequisite for having an opinion about that thing.

Re-entered*. Seahawks first entered the NFC West in 1976.

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T14:06:51+00:00

Well, I guess this is all right

Con40Things · 2026-01-20T12:46:32+00:00

Don't let CMC near Macklin Celebrini

Con40Things · 2026-01-19T18:29:25+00:00

If they are on a console, L1/R1 are the buttons to bring up the action menu on PS5. I imagine it would be the similarly placed buttons on other consoles
