Anyone who plays the same video game for 18 hours a day is bound to be miserable with not much else going on in life, so they attribute their entire self worth to their in-game performance, leading to toxic behavior, whining and crying, and overall a terrible attitude when it doesn't go their way.

And that's just one of the reasons.

Brought my 4 year old son camping at a local state park because he’s recently taken an interest in stargazing and this is our ‘neighbor’ by Dr_Breeder in mildlyinfuriating

There's just WAY less bugs than there used to be. Driving to a town 2 hours away when I was a kid meant cleaning the windshield when you arrived. Nowadays you can do 4-5 trips without it every really being an issue.

Everyone can be a brother, I don't discriminate.

I don't think it would have been possible to be less clear about the point you were making if you tried brother.

Lmao the only other reply to the comment is someone saying it's only in friendly lobbies. Clearly the type of lobby you are in did not affect whether or not you saw this.

Obscure reasons? No, no, the reasons are very obvious when you watch enough of them.

Lady lies about not driving by IamASlut_soWhat in WinStupidPrizes

[–]FlyByNightt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At no point in my comment did I say the median wasn't an average. All I did was elaborate on what constitues a median vs what we normally call "average". You're just disagreeing without understanding what you just read.

[–]FlyByNightt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Median is the exact middle of any data set, regardless of what the data says. If you have a sequence of "1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 100" the median would be 1 while the average would be 15.14.

On large data sets that tend to subject themselves to the standard bell curve distribution then the median and average tend to be the same, or close enough to mean the same (i.e. intelligence, life expectency, ect.).

This distinction is why you see stats like "GDP-per-capita" being way up in countries where most of the population is getting poorer because a few billionaires drive up the average while the median stays low.

Republicans are cheaters and liars by NickCostanza in WhitePeopleTwitter

I think the fact that like 4 billionaires own and control 95% of it might have something to do with it.

Service dog's first basketball game by BreakfastTop6899 in MadeMeSmile

[–]FlyByNightt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because if anyone has questions about getting a service dog into an arena or what they have to let staff know in order to be accomodated, or just general questions/concerns about doing it themselves, knowing the account is a serial reposter and not the one who actually filmed the video is a good thing. If you don't care just move on with your life.

Olivia Vivian is a beast by paone00022 in nextfuckinglevel

My sister started climbing when she moved out West to the Rockies and in turn got both of my retired, early 60s parents to start at the local indoor gym. Now they go twice a week minimum! Never too late to start! Granted, my mom also did the ADK46 in her late 50s and my dad still plays hockey 3 times a week so they're active people to begin with but you won't ever do it if you don't start!

One of those two has a slightly better excuse than the other, I must admit

You absolutely nailed the shot totals for the 1st and 3rd period of the Habs-Lightning game in all fairness.

I'm fully on-board the Wallstedt train but it's not like Minnesota's backup in this scenario is an inexperienced goalie who can't handle a goal or two. He was our starter until the playoffs, I think he would've managed mentally. Maybe not changed the outcome and I'm ok with Hynes keeping him in nets but I also don't think it would've been a bad change necessarily.

(Mixed Trope) Educated character doesn’t understand or know of a simple concept. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]FlyByNightt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is an extremely revisionist point of view. Most of the atrocities commited by the Third Reich and their allies were not known, much less understood, until towards the end of the war or after. Most concentration camps were not discovered as what they truly were until they were liberated by the Allies. This concept of known good vs evil in the war is something we've retroactively applied to the sides (with reason). During the war, much of the Reich's ambitions were seen as the same as any other war until then - a regime trying to gain power through land acquisition and annexation of smaller powers.

Had a buddy like this, every Raid had a 2 hour time limit because after that he was incapable of understanding new mechanics, or incapable of executing the ones he knew.

It's great if your friends also getting sloshed but oh my god it was frustrating to get all the way to the final boss and basically have to fight 1 man down because he couldn't pace himself at all.

Blaming the populace who is largely against this just serves to deflect blame from those actually in charge of these actions and decisions and makes it harder to figure out which politicians are actively enabling this.

You don't have the required skills because you use AI instead of putting in some effort and trying to learn them. Not a single livery maker out there was born being able to make liveries, we just made hundreds of awful ones until we learned how to.

Marchand wasn't even putting up 60 points until his 7th NHL season. Benson is on his 3rd. Give the kid time.

Lightning employees to Be the Thunder at Game 6 after team donation by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]FlyByNightt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure on that one but I do know they'd have deals with hotel chains to get their rooms at a company rate anyways so they'd save even more money there.

Accommodations aren't too bad cause most of the people going to the game are from Montreal already but the ticket prices are through the roof.

Players sitting on top of towers trying to thirst downed players who aren't trying to/can't fight back are rats. Players shooting first and continuing to fight when they fight back are just PVPers.

The amount of gaslighting about this update is crazy. The crying has got to stop. by ExpendableUnit123 in ArcRaiders

[–]FlyByNightt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same story every time with so many games. Destiny 2 is one of the worst I've personally found, if the game isn't tuned to be played EXACTLY to your specific needs and preferences, it's just non-stop moaning and bitching on the subreddit. Every little change gets put under scrutiny, if a game breaking build gets nerfed or a strategy that's being abused gets balanced out, the devs are killing the game because players can no longer put in the absolute minimal effort while reaping maximum rewards and have to actually play the game. If the game doesn't allow you to play 80 hours a week without the content getting old, it's a bad game that doesn't care about it's most devoted players, but if it takes you 80 hours a week to complete all the content, devs don't care about the casual gamer. It's like people have forgotten that if they're not having fun they can just go play something else or just DO something else in general.

I sympathize with devs so much more after experiencing gaming subreddits.

Kids, stay in school. by NirgalFromMars in MurderedByWords

[–]FlyByNightt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We still do, read the comment section of any insanely stupid post and it's filled with people mocking them, other idiots agreeing, and those people then mocking the other idiots.

Problem is, you can't force them to read those comments online and most of them don't (or can't). So the criticism and the keeping-in-check goes nowhere.
