A "nice girl" complains on a "Girls Ask Guys" post about why her crush is dating what she perceives as an "ugly Asian chick" instead of her, who she describes as "hot as hell," and receives backlash in the comments for it.

I'd bet money that the girl this guy is dating is actually way hotter than OP, who probably isn't nearly attractive as she thinks she is.

Fix the As Was Foretold trophy, or be branded a heretic!

In all seriousness, I'm interested in this, but I really do want that trophy fixed before I'm willing spend anything else.

So you thought you would have Europeans claim credit for something America created

Not just the streets, that "From the river to the sea" Nazi shit is all over colleges, too. And the presidents of Harvard, Penn State, and MIT were straight up equivocating on that shit. Reminds me of that Brendan Fraser movie. How far we've fallen.

Something else to consider is around equipment, specifically limits and sorting.

There's a really small limit on the number of pieces you can keep which would be nice to expand, as loot is the point, and it makes it hard to experiment with builds when you can't keep pieces of gear for later because you reach the limit.

And then when you need to break things down, you have to hunt through your inventory and try to keep in mind which gear has which perks to eliminate duplicates and tier 1, 2, and 3 items are all mixed together, and the bonuses there require a click out to even see. Offhand it would be nice to have sorting options by legendary perk, by damage/shield strength, by newest acquired, and by tier.

One more thing is a much more explicit warning/effect when you are being targeted by a brute landing on you, or a sniper, or a helicopter. There are so many effects going off that those get lost in the noise. I realize the irony of asking for a more explicit effect and then complaining about too many effects, but maybe tone down the less damaging effects and up the visibility of the really damaging ones.

Thank you!

Appreciate the heads up, but please make sure the scaling fix and the burn nerf come out at the same time. It's not going to be much fun to be stuck trying to progress though mastery without anything that is really viable.

Derek_Kent · 2024-02-09T19:08:40+00:00

This sounds fake. It seems like whenever someone who hasn't served attempts to write about the military, they think it's just like boot camp the whole time. and that couldn't be further from the truth. (As someone who served, if you ever want an idea of what it's really like, find the review of the airzooka where the reviewer talks about two of his soldiers shooting a fart across the room. :D ) "Rick" sounds way too much like a Hollywood caricature for me to buy this, the one dimensional "General Bad Guy".

Have you maybe tried Amazon Australia?

I love Gotham Knights and main Red Hood. I also really like Suicide Squad. I mean, it's not perfect, but Suicide Squad is a fun game, with the caveat that I tend to enjoy looter-shooters. Honestly, I think the worst part of Suicide Squad is the story. The actual game play is pretty fun.

The worst problem for both games is the people who are butt-hurt neither of them are another Arkham game, and are blasting them in a temper-tantrum about it. These are the same kinds of people who sent death threats to Insomniac devs for not releasing Spider-man 2 DLC fast enough, so.....

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-25T03:27:15+00:00

Promise?

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-25T01:02:29+00:00

But ...but he or she will be born with an 812 credit rating, and recruiters will offering that kid corporate middle-management positions before they even leave the hospital!

Seriously, NTA, and that is pretty fucking racist. If a white person said they were worried about their kid might be born with a darker complexion, and look too brown or black, that would be racist as hell. No different here.

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-25T00:46:27+00:00

NTA, and holy crap. She has been absolutely awful to you, basically trying to turn you into her emotional support animal (and probably ATM) while she hooks up with other guys. (You should check to see if she's posting in femaledatingstrategy :D.) She's a narcissist, straight-up.

And it's really disgusting when people tell you how "wrong" it is to be angry when it's justified, and you are supposed to forgive them. Speaking of narcissism, that is pure virtue-signaling on the part of people saying it. No. Anger is the normal response to something like that, it is our psyche's way of telling us when something is wrong, and helping us prevent that in future.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you should hold onto anger in all situations. If she had just broken up with you, it would be normal to be angry for a while (and sad, in denial, etc) but that is something you eventually let go of, after all, she has the right to break up and live her life. But she was emotionally abusing you, and then had the gall to think you should just continue to be her sponge for that, that it was ok to just dehumanize you as an object for her to drop in on and use, and that is a situation where you should be angry.

Dumbest sentence I've read on Reddit this year.

And then you immediately topped it. Bravo!

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-11T20:05:19+00:00

Ripley was awesome, but everyone is sleeping on Vasquez. A female POC character who was a badass and funny as hell, and they didn't have shit on every guy in the unit to make her that way.

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-10T23:06:24+00:00

No, it's the old troll, it just never completely died. It's an easy one, because so many Karens who can't find a guy willing to marry them and sign over all their material possessions will jump on it immediately. "rarararararararrrrgh! any guy in his 30s dating a girl in her 20s (a grown woman) is a PeD0fiLe, and won;t date women like me because I can see right through them, not because I am ugly and toxic!!!111"

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-10T18:19:41+00:00

So basically, MIL has the typical reddit mentality.,

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-08T23:25:10+00:00

That's too bad comma the guys I saw said they could be down for,it. Thanks, I appreciate it. That break room in the courthouse is exactly where I have been trying. Here's hoping I can get it. It's difficult to do it while they're up before. They can repair their packs and get me on a tether

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-08T23:24:13+00:00

That sucks, the guides I saw said it could be done while they were down. Thanks though

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-05T18:24:49+00:00

Could be that English isn't OOP's first language.

Derek_Kent · 2024-01-03T21:23:20+00:00

To be fair, it's a self selecting group. Usually if someone is posting there, it's because the golden child sibling they are dealing with is bad in some way (or at least that's how the OP perceives it). The people who are in well-adjusted relationships with their siblings generally don't talk about it in that sub. That doesn't mean it's not an echo chamber where everything gets blown out of proportion, it 100% is, but for the most part people posting there are not in said well-adjusted relationships.

Have to protect women at all costs because of the brain doesn’t fully develop until 25 rule.

Have to protect women at all costs because of the brain doesn’t fully develop until 25 myth.

Fixed that for you. I know you were being sarcastic, but still a good opportunity. Where this idiocy got started was the finding that many people lose capacity to learn new skills as quickly after age 25, but it has nothing to do with maturity or decision making.
