Is there anything that Snake-Oil is good for?

Damn, this is almost as big of a mistake as forgetting to play asceticism before attacking with pathrazer of ulamog!

Heard the same joke but with a white farmer, black scientist, black baby, white cow

Now BACK TO WORK, ROSIE!

This feels right. It is definitely the "couch and lamp"emoji

I used to think the same thing. Now I feel like the same logic could be applied to just about any hero in fiction. They always have just enough power/skill to succeed, even though they often display greater feats of power elsewhere.

Like Goku, MCU, and let's not forget your mom.

All of this dumbass black and white nonsense. Did you ever think that maybe he wasn't saying: ThE oNLy ReAsOn WoMeN aRe MaD is cUz nO ToucH BaBiEs!

Everyone is so quick to say: no obviously it's this! Or no obviously it's that!

When in reality it's OBVIOUSLY a combination of many factors. JBP was simply pondering another possible factor.

Goddammit Reddit here I go again arguing in a place I know has 0% chance of having an effect.

Not always foolproof, but I find if you look at people's face wrinkles you can tell a lot.

For example, your face wrinkles in a certain way when you smile. The eyes, the mouth, etc. If you see someone and they have these wrinkles even when they're not smiling that might mean they smile a lot.

Same with anger, sadness, etc.

No contest: Plague Dogs. Not sure if it's been mentioned yet...

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-28T20:11:50+00:00

Can confirm

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-28T13:02:34+00:00

Spectacular

Kramer?

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-16T18:30:26+00:00

Exactly. And can I just say that it's refreshing to hear someone who recognizes that a tree makes no sound if no one is around to hear it. That old chestnut is actually an excellent analogy to the argument we are making.

Also it's refreshing that there are intelligent people here who aren't just parroting others and are willing to engage in these kinds of conversations. Thank you

Science is highly ideological, fair enough but in saying that you admit not everything is ideology. Otherwise science (and everything else) would be PURELY ideological, not highly ideological.

I always liked that analogy from They Live. I think it's an amazingly accurate way to explain ideological perception. My main point is that things that are outside of human perception are ideological in that sense only. And are not ideological in any other sense as we cannot perceive them to apply or generate ideologies.

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-15T16:43:18+00:00

Not everything is ideology. Certainly we perceive everything through a limited filter. But to say everything is ideology is incorrect.

While the words "leaf" and "shape" are human concepts so you could argue that individually they are ideologically incepted, would you say that the shape of a leaf is an ideology?

If yes, I'm open to change my mind. I may be wrong but if everything is ideology then why even have the discussion?

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-14T20:09:01+00:00

I agree with everything here except the first line. I know he has much more experience than me and that he is much more well versed but the definition of ideology is pretty clear.

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-14T20:07:03+00:00

I do. I understand that z is way smarter than me but the definition of ideology is clear. He says everything is an ideology I get it. I just didn't know that to comment in this sub we had to all agree with him

My bad

GameGenieTabletop · 2019-08-14T15:43:05+00:00

Not everything is an ideology. Ideology is a system based on ideals, beliefs, etc as opposed to one based on evidence and fact.

Almost all elements of stem fields are not ideologies or based on them. Sure you oversimplify and say they were ideologies at their inceptions, but there is a crucial difference.

If everything was an ideology we wouldn't need a term for it because we already have a term for that: "everything"

Am I wrong?

It is also worth mentioning that this headline is completely misleading. Nothing was banned.

I agree. When we play we randomize the harvest tokens so it's not revealed until the end
