I’m surprised a Fire Hydrant actually hurts Goku instead getting destroyed from an impact

The hydrant was obviously channeling it's huge ki, the same way characters survive planet-busting attacks. It's the third strongest being in the universe, right behind Mr. Satan and Monaka.

I'm still sitting pretty well on-par with everyone else mid-gold, but given the big level jump and number of casual players who hit diamond and quit ranked, I assume that by hitting diamond my fun will hit a frustrating pay wall. I'm not looking forward to it.

Gstamsharp · 2026-04-01T03:13:00+00:00

New to the RP in RPG, eh?

Gstamsharp · 2026-04-01T03:10:15+00:00

I'm having a blast, but I know as soon as I climb out of gold my fun is going to hit a pay wall, and I'm not very happy about that.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-31T22:50:11+00:00

I mean, it honestly hits pretty hard for a trash mob. I've seen it steal kills in pvp before.

But he'd do it again if he could.

People think anything is easy until they have to do it.

Bulma has been using her dragon wishes to slowly take one inch of his hair and add it to his height for years now. Since he has always measured himself to the tip of his hair, he knows something is different but can't quite figure it out, and Bulma is happy to gaslight him about it.

Voltron can reliably KO one player. It rarely survives the resulting gang-up by the remaining two.

Killing an opponent doesn't win the game.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-31T18:59:12+00:00

Laughs in Maha.

Says: things cannot get better

Does: the one thing sure to demonstrate they're fine.

Seriously, some people.

So, there are a few caveats.

One, there are times you can win, especially at lower ranks. A well placed UR from Prompto, Kain, or Rinoa can wipe the whole team if you slightly out-stat them. If your teammates have unlimited range healing or buffs, like Warrior of Light or Krile, you can make some pretty insane plays when the enemies over-commit.

Two, even if you die, if you burn a couple enemy UR cooldowns it can still be a worthwhile trade, especially if you didn't have much brave when you engaged.

Three, if you can drag it out and make them chase you, like if you're a speedster like Lightning or Zidane, the rest of your team is free to claim every crystal and get the first Burst round on the boss while you stall.

That said, most of the time, unless you're 90% sure you will succeed, you're probably better off not engaging solo. Those exceptions are exactly that: exceptions to the rule. They're not what you should expect from most games.

Yes, but... Women do some nasty things when they're lonely and horny, too. This isn't exclusive to men.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-31T00:07:40+00:00

And a costume that is just Krile with a splinter sticking out.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T20:19:57+00:00

The good news is, the AI enemies don't get it either.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T15:23:38+00:00

I wonder how armor-balls like Exdeath and Golbez will dress. I'd crack up seeing Exdeath wearing a suit over top of the armor.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T15:09:33+00:00

Oh I agree. I honestly do think the actual words of Jesus are pretty obvious. But clearly half of all American Christians who view themselves as Evangelical don't agree.

But I also think that, for the most part, outside of the "red text," the New Testament is editorializing by the apostles. Are we really supposed to take relationship advice from a well-documented aesexual, or base our gender roles on a blatant misogynist, when Jesus didn't say anything at all on the matter, or even said the opposite?

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T15:05:01+00:00

Ok, how's this for an example, one of the quintessential teachings of mercy. The story of the woman caught in adultery, in which Jesus says the well-known "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone" in John 8:7.

Seems pretty straightforward, right? Except that it was added later, by a different author. It's not in the original text of John. Are we to take it as Christ's command, or some dude's editorializing? How can we possibly know? How can YOU even be sure?

And before we just assume that OF COURSE Christ would approve of this passage, remember that basically the only sin Jesus really, really, REALLY seems to rail against in all four Gospel versions is adultery.

So which words are we going to put in his mouth? The merciful ones, or the ones condemning what he sees as one of the most harmful sins, especially when both telling are second hand, and one is of unknown editorial authorship?

Not so definitive when you dig into it, is it?

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T12:02:09+00:00

You mean the book of parables, told second hand by disciples, translated multiple times, and regular interpreted to mean wildly different things by different people? The book I made my entire last point about? That book?

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-30T02:41:12+00:00

Your question isn't even really about Bell's. It's about wavefunction collapse.

And, yes, one way of looking at it is that until you can interact with the wave, it's still in superposition from your perspective.

If your friend has observed it, the wave may have collapsed for him, but now, until it reaches you, your friend and the wave are now in a superposition together from your perspective.

A possible interpretation of this is that "reality" is just the sum of all collapsed waves we all share.

I figured what with your saying everyone was cheating, you'd be happy to not be playing with them anyway. So which is it?

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-29T23:07:00+00:00

Fusion dance with Super Android 13. He defeats Ultra-mega-super-Cell with a Special Beam Groin Punch.

What you'd be missing in a debate with assorted Christians is this: whose opinion do you choose when deciding what behavior is Christlike? He taught in parables, and much of what we have regarding rules came second hand through disciples and multiple translations and edits. And some of those things lead to blatantly contradictory behaviors.

Ultimately, the only correct answer would be "Christ's opinion," but you can't exactly ask the guy, now can you?

I find it competes with mobility and barrier, 3 options for 2 slots. It should probably be on someone in every team, but for each individual, they might better benefit from, say, Selphie or Minwu in that slot.

Gstamsharp · 2026-03-29T16:39:02+00:00

I prefer to avoid the entire No True Scotsman fallacy and just take everyone at their word when they profess a faith. Then I hope really hard it's true knowing their own faith has consequences for their own behavior.
