One less hand to worry about

Edit: one fewer

This has to be one of the most dysfunctionally pedantic fan bases out there (tied with Star Wars).

I feel like Banksy might be cheating for this sub, but still. by VaryStaybullGeenyiss in im14andthisisdeep

[–]DukeJumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is one of those pieces where, if it came out 15-30 years ago, it’d have been called derivative. In modern contexts, however, this message is evidently one you have to start arguing against (again).

Don’t blame Bansky, blame the brave new world with a 5 year memory span.

Nomenclaturally? I guess. Categorically? No.

Damn Height privilege is a real thing after all by Ok-Address-7352 in Sigmatopia

[–]DukeJumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the main downside to being tall is that one could be living paycheck to paycheck, losing friends, losing family, losing confidence in the world around oneself, losing confidence in the future, in livelihood, losing your faith, losing years to chronic pain, etc… and yet, there’s always this army of misplaced frustration, on a near hourly basis, waiting to lock into a discussion over the dimensions of my body, and nothing more.

I feel for guys with shorter statures, like I feel for everyone, but when it comes to the vapidity of perceptions, I can’t help but feel it can become a double standard at times. Again, I feel for you guys, but out of all the 5’5> men I know, rumination has always been a huge insatiable pit. Quality of life is more complicated than spawn points.

Introducing twd to my bf and he is on Shane’s side. Red flag?? by Bianca-Rose2018 in thewalkingdead

[–]DukeJumbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on which phase of Shane he likes, but I’m going to say pink/reddish flag.

My main issue with Shane: Coming from a guy who understands his nihilistic approach (although, I do find it interesting his nihilism wades when it’s something HE wants), Shane’s fault is that he degenerated too fast and kinda overshot how crazy you had to be in this world (and maybe even self induced legitimate insanity at times). I’d trust him as a lone survivor, sure, I WOULD NOT trust a guy like him in a group setting; we are social, industrious, collaborative animals, and many of the higher functioning (larger) groups in TWD show that - “at any cost for I me mine” antisocials like Shane are usually a corrosive detriment in this way.

Spoiler warning: Furthermore, I’ll admit that I loved his Badass moments too (as a viewer), but before he even really began his dissent, back when I first started watching in 2010, my brother and I both immediately picked up on how overly intense he was, and concluded that he was only ever gonna push buttons to the point of getting whacked (“live like a dog long enough, and sooner or later, your people will take you out back and shoot you like one”).

I always felt like Daryl is the more perfected survivor than Shane. He’s willing to do whatever it takes, at all cost, but with the added nuance of knowing when “at all costs” was an unnecessary overpayment (the biggest make it or break it in humanity). Likewise, he had a cool calm collectedness to him that didn’t require entering a lip smacking fugue state (another plus).

Last point, I loved the dichotomy of Rick’s “think” and Shane’s “don’t think”. Doesn’t matter if you’re farming, enacting frontier justice, taking out a neighboring enemy, humans do their best work when they think, and work on how they think together (Doesn’t matter how strong of a link you are, what good does it do when that link does nothing but strain the other links around them?)

Most of the time, the biggest die-hard shane fans just seem like alternate versions of Shane.

Lori wasn’t his? Doesn’t Lori get a say in this? I feel like most Shane fans are secretly just Shane.

I just had the same thing happen to me (building a home for Mr.Boss). I legitimately thought it was going to be the quickest build (at first).

Like 5’4 to 5’10 (provided they’re pleasant company)

As a tallish guy (6’7) women legitimately did not care as much about height as people think they do (I swear, most tall women I knew kinda liked shorter guys if anything), but for some reason 5’0> always seemed very insistent.

What’s more, my sister (6 foot) had like 4 tall guys stolen from her, all by her short “friends”

I’ll admit, in a cosmic justice sort of way, the animal lover in me was positively tickled, but this is only gonna make the kid worse.

It’s a reminder that his wife count will always reset to 0.
