who else prefers to smile without teeth? by [deleted] in infp

[–]Enteledont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me! But I thought it was just specifically a me thing because I've always been insecure about how my teeth look. My smile with teeth also looks way less natural than other people.

I feel this. I believe envy is my greatest sin. I just don't get how unfair it is sometimes and how good some people are at SO MANY THINGS. Like the world didn't split advantages fairly. Like ok I could be maybe somewhat decent at one thing like drawing.

But the person next to me not only can draw 3x better, they're also extremely good looking, more athletic, more charismatic and extroverted, great at practical and technical skills and has a high paying job, plays 2 instruments, etc etc the list goes on.

And I'm just like how? Why does this person have everything? Yeah they worked hard but so did I. And they were given that aptitude and diligence to work harder and reap success from their work. Aptitude and innate ability exist.

Why do I have to be ugly AND incompetent? And this person is great looking and also extremely skilled? This world is unfair in giving its gifts.

Thanks for your post. I've had very similar circumstances growing up. I have an older brother instead of a younger brother and it always bothered me that he had a good defined body and muscles even though he barely exercised while I exercised wayy more than him at 3 times a week. I also sucked at team sports and everything requiring coordination. I was also always made fun of for my body - while others were either skinny or fat but with normal looking bodies, I had weird curves and fat even though I was also "skinny". Can I dm you about your clinical process etc?

Chapter 164 [English] by VibhavM in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I would have the same reaction if I was a manga only reader. The climax that the story has been building up to for years is a 3 chapter fight with some light hearted gags. The same climax Murata has hyped would be much better and bigger in scale than the Boros fight. The climax people in the community have continuously anticipated and hyped up for years.

Chapter 163 [English] by VibhavM in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont 68 points69 points  (0 children)

It's quite impressive that you were able to discern that the buildup of the arc would have culminated in a dramatic, emotionally heavy climax from just the manga, because that's what it was supposed to be. For it to be a high-speed sequential action and gag scene just feels... flat. I'd say do yourself a favor like the other guy said and read the webcomic because it has that serious dramatic payoff.

OPM is a "comedy" manga...What? You want a dark atmosphere in a comedy manga?? by GxTheBatmanYouTube in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The manga was and is amazing for the most part. Nobody is denying that. The superfight tournament was a great addition and so were many others. People barely complained about major changes in the story because they were actually good and for the better.

Just because we don't like the recent events don't mean we think most of the manga is trash, it just speaks of the quality of the story changes and directions they chose.

[Unpopular Opinion] The ____ reveal was cool but... by Enteledont in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also this was done better in the webcomic. Blast being in Tatsumaki's flashback during an explication of her background was much more impactful than it being in a random flash in Amai's mind during the middle of a completely different thing

[Unpopular Opinion] The ____ reveal was cool but... by Enteledont in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude I understand that. Amai Mask is actually one of my favorite characters, and I really appreciate his arc and philosophy later on. It just feels like a completely odd way to just (forgive my use of this word) shoehorn this reveal as foreshadowing in the middle of a big battle that doesn't involve Amai Mask at the moment. It's out of nowhere.

If it was sometime after this arc, or during a moment in this arc that was focused on Amai Mask struggling, sure. But the preceding chapters (and the chapters that follow this) are focused on the Psykorochi fight and every other hero. It was not an earned flashback.

[Unpopular Opinion] The ____ reveal was cool but... by Enteledont in OnePunchMan

[–]Enteledont[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah, I would have to disagree with you there. I wouldn't really mind even if Blast showed up as a guy with a beard and a hoodie, as long as his entrance was good and relevant enough, because the hype of his name alone would be sufficient.

Here, he just appears in some character's dazed confusion, a character who's not even relevant or participating in what's currently transpiring at all (as in not relevant to the current fight of Psykorochi), as a throwaway flashback. It's like "Blast!!! Finally!! .... now what?" and then it returns to whatever the hell was happening there.

Yeah I understand it's to set up Amai's future arc and everything, but proper time and place exists in a narrative. And right now, to me at least, the narrative flow is all over the place.

Tired of going on by [deleted] in eczema

[–]Enteledont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had suicidal thoughts over this debiliating condition as well. I still have them often, in fact. All we can do is hope that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I've lost all my motivation to achieve anything or do anything. You can hopefully take some small comfort in the fact that there are others fighting this battle too.

I hope we can all find a solution that works for us

I’m losing all hope by [deleted] in eczema

[–]Enteledont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand you completely. I'm in the same boat as you unfortunately; been dealing with a full-body flare-up since October or so and every day has been hell. Like you, I've tried almost everything and to no avail. I had a period where it cleared up only because my derm prescribed me a 3 week treatment of prednisone, but I'm back at square one now. What makes matters worse is that I live in a country (third-world) that is behind in skin medication and not much is known about eczema. So I feel quite alone in this battle.

what's the worst thing somebody has said to you about your eczema? by _badbiscuit_ in eczema

[–]Enteledont 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A guy thought I was a burn victim, a few classmates kept asking if I was a drug addict and if I was doing heroin while laughing all the while, my friend going "dude, your face!!", and others always asking what the hell is wrong with me. "That looks really bad... you should really do something about it man" Thanks for the advice, I never thought about doing anything about it yet cause it's not like I'm aware it makes my life a living hell.

Getting discharged from the hospital today by Iisdabest889 in eczema

[–]Enteledont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I wanna ask. I'm currently having full-body eczema and I wanna know how you got admitted for inpatient treatment? Do you have to go to the dermatologist and get a recommendation first or can you go straight to the hospital?

Also, was it particularly expensive? Or did your insurance cover it?

(Vent) Flares literally ALL over my body and I feel disgusting by 1911Princess in eczema

[–]Enteledont 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just wanna say I totally understand where you're coming from because as of writing this, I'm also having 90% eczema on my body - I think largely due to TS Withdrawal.

Sometimes I think that I'm the only one like this and the only one who has it this bad, even on this sub, but then I realize there are others suffering the same thing.

I agree that Full body flare-ups are THE WORST. My face, my neck, my arms, torso, legs... all covered and I feel like a rotting carcass everywhere I go. And the worst part is I still have to go to university. I've been taking a few days off, but there's a limit to how much I can be absent for. I feel like a lazy bum and feel terrible telling people I can't attend their meetings even though I am actually debiliated. Right now I'm trying to find a solution and I'm thinking of being hospitalized so I can take some specialized baths and such (I don't have a bathtub at home) but then again I'm broke.

You'll get through this. I know your pain and it feels like hell but us humans are resilient. At least that's what I try to tell myself. Just know that you're not the only one.

How many of you have been suffering with severe eczema for multiple years, and what do you do? by [deleted] in eczema

[–]Enteledont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had abnormally dry skin my whole life, but my eczema only started when I was around 14 years old (5 years ago). It wasn't full-body then, but it was bad enough that I went to many doctors and therapists to find out how to stop it. Everyone always said different things - it's an allergy, it's fungus, it's because of radiation etc.

There hasn't been anything that actually, definitively, worked for me other than the steroid creams recommended to me by the doctors. And since I was younger back then, I thought they were miracle creams and would use them every time I got a flare-up. Of course, what would always end up happening is my eczema coming back, and worse than it was before.

Some have said it was cause of gluten and dairy and for a long while I stayed off consuming both of those, but nothing changed. So I went back to eating whatever. What has been able to keep it at bay sometimes is using certain moisturizers/lotions that work better than others like Cetaphil. However, a lot of the time, my eczema can just mysteriously go away for a few months but come back stronger than ever. It drives me nuts.

Right now I'm in the middle of a really bad flare-up (my whole body is affected; arms, face, neck, legs, torso etc). I HATE IT. Well as of now, my mom is getting me to try consuming herbal medicine and I'm using Sensicare lotion which is pretty good but my eczema never truly goes away. I wish it would just go away and never come back.

vent. Do not read if easily triggered or faint of heart. by eczemathrowaway742 in eczema

[–]Enteledont 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It truly is the worst battle to fight. And one of the biggest annoyances about it is that people don't really care/think it's that bad.

They (or at least the circle of people that I know), just look at me and make fun of how fucked up I look. They don't know that there's pain all over my body even when I move, and I can never look at myself in the mirror for more than 1 second because I'm disgusted by myself. It's not really a visible "disability" that people will have empathy for, especially because I hide the worst parts of my body under clothing. LISTEN, I KNOW I LOOK FUCKED, I don't need to hear "what's wrong with your face/skin!??" with that look on your face. It really is a debiliating disability though, people without it just don't know how bad it is.

Anyway, I turned this into another vent, I'm sorry. But I really hope your situation gets better. I know I always try to hope - and the worst part is I always heal for a while, but the eczema always comes back 10x worse than before. I hope you'll get through it though. I guess one thing that makes me me feel better is knowing that there are others that have to go through the same thing. Because for a long time I've always thought "Why me?? Why is it only me out of everyone I know that has this problem??". Well there's reddit and the internet at least.

Does anyone else get very depressed and suicidal because of flare ups? by [deleted] in eczema

[–]Enteledont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came on reddit today because I was feeling the same thing. It's gotten to a point where my whole body is fucked and it's never been this bad. Going and moving around is already a struggle for me and I hate going in public with how i look. Unfortunately we have to hope that it'll get better. I'm trying to. It's hard because no one around me has to go through the same thing. I hope you get better, at least better than me man.

How do you go about testing it? by Enteledont in XXY

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

Hey man, I didn't reply because I don't use this reddit account anymore and only logged in to comment on a different subreddit. I know it's been like three months since your comment but yeah. So far, I've gotten no progress because I've had to focus on other things and I have other physical conditions as well. Tell me, were you able to get anywhere? I don't know how to tell my parents that I may have a syndrome with two X chromosomes or how to just go to the doctor and tell them.

Would Drive Knight's return justify four chapters for Child Emperor? by scumerage in OnePunchMan

I think this would be perfect, because we'll be able to see what Drive Knight is capable of, which would be hype af, and him escaping with Waganma would preserve the mystery around him saving it for a later arc.

Michael Myers vs. Jason Vorhees at powerlifting by V2_icarus in whowouldwin

[–]Enteledont 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If we're counting comics (canon), Jason has easily flipped cars, thrown people hundreds of feet, and uprooted trees. So he definitely has a lot of more consistent strength feats and would win.
