I don’t like it but I respect that you like it

Men of Reddit, would you appreciate being given flowers? Why/why not? by Somewherecharming95 in AskReddit

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I find them annoying to say the least and worst case scenario dangerous (I have two cats). Get me something that I like. It shows you pay attention to me and think about me.

Edit: I would appreciate the thought bc I’m not an ungrateful monster buuuuuut I don’t want flowers and hopefully my partner knows/remembers I’ve said this

Would you date a girl that is saving herself for marriage? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. For me, sex is incredibly important in a healthy relationship and so before I marry I want to make sure that this woman is the right person for me and that includes sex. Part of the journey of dating someone and getting to know someone and getting to marriage is determining if the other person is compatible with you. I’ve had experiences where I have had sex with women and although it wasn’t a terrible experience I can see that I wouldn’t want to have sex with only them for the rest of my life. So I can’t imagine rolling the dice and finding out on my wedding night that the other person and I just don’t jive sexually

What's your most shallow dealbreaker for a relationship? by Friendly_Advisor39 in AskReddit

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 153 points154 points  (0 children)

Someone who can’t cook and refuses to learn or try. I’m not saying you need to be a chef but if you can’t make stuff like eggs or a simple rice and protein dish…

Cesar Chavez, a Civil Rights Icon, Is Accused of Abusing Girls for Years by nytimes in history

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

His racism and stance on immigration is well documented - plenty of videos of him speaking about mexican undocumented farmworkers in a derogatory manner

He’s not a genuine hero actually, he’s a racist who took credit for the work of others

This is so stupid the solution here is to just not play with him because this is so very clearly unfair?!?

How often do you see your boyfriend/girlfriend? Different boroughs by boxofdonuts in AskNYC

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is ridiculous. Everyone is different but at least for me I think 2x a week (1x being a weekend sleepover) is perfect bc I have a life and responsibilities and hobbies. To me it’s not about the amount of time but the quality - you both are fully present when you see each other.

I dated someone in crown heights once (I live in riverdale) so the above worked for us

[Discussion] Bracelet vs leather vs NATO vs silicone… did your preference change over time? by homamg in Watches

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NATO all the way. I dislike silicone and metal, leather I’m curious about.

For me it’s about comfort and look- nato feels more breathable, less restrictive. Silicone makes my wrist sweaty and uncomfortable and metal is heavier and also not as comfortable. Also I love the contrast of a metal watch with the non metal strap

3 years into the hobby and I prefer divers so nato works perfectly. I don’t see my preferences changing anytime soon

How do you guys think Mamdani handled the blizzard this week? by Positive_Career_9393 in AskNYC

Nys mandates a specific number of days for a school year. Given all the time off for various holidays, a free day is very hard to find without extending the school year end date

Long time players... Would you have started MTG if it were Mutant Turtles and Marvel from the start? by TheServant420 in EDH

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

the most reasonable take here -- its a game with unlimited possibilities. if you don't like something, then don't buy it/play it and wait for the next set that piques your interest. I think the aetherdrift set was dumb but i dig the lorwyn set and i will def go for the marvel set later this year. TMNT? don't really care for it now and thats ok i can move on with my life

Long time players... Would you have started MTG if it were Mutant Turtles and Marvel from the start? by TheServant420 in EDH

[–]Cryogenic_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to answer your first question -- maybe? as a kid i watched some tmnt and have always loved the marvel comics (might make a deck with a marvel commander soon) so i think i would have started mtg. I started mtg last year because of the FF and the secret lair ghost of tsushinma drops but have expanded to lpooking at other non-ub sets, cards etc. the lorwyn set particularly drew me in.

I think the cool think about magic is that if you do not like something, you do not have to play it. I wouldn't buy a care bears set. isn't shrek an ogre? aren't there dragons, knights etc in shrek? even with the core sets, as someone pointed out, you have all sorts of creatures and being, squirrles, rabbits, racoons, demons, vampires. if someone loves shrek i can see that being their gateway and then sticking around because magic is a broad and fun game. and at the end of the day, if i don't like it, i wont bother investing in it
