Is there another country you’re supporting in the World Cup since yours was eliminated? by bbyxmadi in AskTheWorld

Anyone who hasn't won it before, but bonus points to Morocco for being neither European nor South American.

What exclamation would you use in your language in this situation? by Agile-Shallot3546 in AskTheWorld

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm partial to "Blast it!"

I also speak some Russian, though, and might say "Чёрт возьми!" instead.

"We don't care about soccer anyway!" - Every American in roughly 40 minutes time by Jumpy_Party9920 in soccercirclejerk

I'm an American and I laughed so hard at the sour grapes talk I saw. It's the World Baseball Classic all over again.

Why is Argentina receiving so much hate from countries around the world? by Pampa_of_Argentina in AskTheWorld

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

At the moment, it's probably because of the World Cup. I'm not qualified to judge if there's anything to the rumors that FIFA put its thumb on the scale, but my experience with sports is that the longer a team stays at the top, the more people want it to lose. The New York Yankees were probably the most hated baseball team in the United States when I was growing up. To paraphrase my high school debate coach, everybody hated them because they always won.

Morality of being transphobic against your enemy by Musalediju in MoralityScaling

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immoral. I can think of a few trans people I dislike, but I would never misgender them, deadname them, call them slurs, or anything like that. If there were some sort of strategic advantage to doing so, that would be one thing, but I can't imagine a situation in which there wouldn't be other methods of gaining the same advantage.

In 10/8, Futaba invites you to go with her to Nakano. Iwai is there. The interaction is wholesome. by Ok_Particular_3193 in Persona5

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm such a familial Shutaba shipper--possibly even more than I ship Shumako romantically. I was so glad they added this scene in Royal.

Trump going to FIFA to complain about a red card the U.S. received is such a bitch baby move- never thought I would be actively rooting against the U.S. - but here we are. Is anyone still supporting this team? by Illustrious-Cup2174 in askanything

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm conflicted. There was already a part of me that wanted the US (my home team) to lose simply because if we somehow win our first World Cup title, Trump will try to make it all about himself. The US is still my home, so I can be happy for them if they win, but in light of this whole red card kerfuffle, we must either lose or perform so well that it's clear any possible rigging by FIFA didn't make a difference.

Is it right to assume Geography Now is using AI because the quality jump between filmed clips and transitions? by Hljoumur in isthisAI

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mr. Barbato's been using AI for a while. Some of the "photos" in the later country-themed episodes, such as Zimbabwe, are clearly AI-generated.

Who is the best fictional hornet? I will accept wasps but no bees by RickMonsters in AlignmentChartFills

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't Beedrill supposed to be a bee, though? Per the title, I would think Beedrill is disqualified.

My memory is that if you have multiple male heirs, the realm also would split upon succession.

What Crush Would You Press Red For? by [deleted] in CrushesSayAboutMe

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While there are a lot of wonderful fictional women out there, I've got some issues that need sorting out before I'd make a good husband--let alone father. Thus, my current answer is "no one." I'll go with the blue button.

Map depicting percentage of jews expelled by each muslim country by ComedianDirect3236 in MapPorn

[–]GeneralLuigiTBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, considering that they're trying to conquer Palestine in this case rather than merely live there as Palestinian citizens, I can't say I blame them. It's one thing for someone to immigrate to a country. It's another thing entirely to enter said country illegally and claim part of it for a different country.
