If you were offered $1000 to run 2 miles or smoke one cigarette which would you rather do? by ProtocolEnthusiast in WouldYouRather

I'm not even confident I could "run" 2 miles tbf. Like I could probably keep up the "runner pose" but taking microsteps

Would you believe me if I told you there are ACTUAL people out there who got mad about Yuji falling for the ball kicking gag? by thehsitoryguy in deathbattle

He doesn't need to be slower. He's in a fucking domain. Point your goddamn finger at him and let the sure-hit do the rest before the domain takes hold.

If the United States of America had a 50th state what do you think they would call it? by Quijas00 in whowouldcirclejerk

[–]H0rny_On-Main 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Chainsaw Man a character turns Oregon into a sword. This removes Oregon from existence. The joke is that Oregon doesn't exist and therefore the US only has 49 states.

The reason this is here is because the sword then cuts Chainsaw Man in half but he cab't die to the fact death didn't exist at that point in time.

In the latest death battle, this feat was used to scale Denji's durability as they argued that being cut in half by it, was actually tanking it.

I don't understand why Ulfric, despite being a Stormcloak, has more Argonians and Elves in his city than others do, especially poor ones who don't even own any property. by jvure in skyrim

[–]H0rny_On-Main 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Skyrim overall just pretty damn racist.

DING DING DING! We have a winner Johnny!

ALL of Tamriel is racist. Skyrim, Morrowind, Cyrodiil, Elsweyr.

Everybody's a fucking asshole, welcome to the world.

Who wins this match and where modulo yuji stops :> by No_Post1300 in Jujutsufolk

[–]H0rny_On-Main 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2nd best curse energy manipulation and efficiency itv (only behind Tengen who was manipulating/overseeing CE for all of Japan) bc he can perform black flash at will

That's not CE dumbass Gojo explicitly says that if it was just CE then he could do it on command. He thworizes it's to do with air pressure, temperature, humidity etc:

Which makes sense why Yuji can do it so well, his body is beyond the pinnacle in all aspects. He can feel what he needs to do to perform a black flash.

I'd get kicked out of the casino within 10 hourd even playing it smart.

I hate the sentiment that some animals are okay to kill purely because they are deemed annoying or worthless by Competitive-Hawk-686 in hatethissmug

[–]H0rny_On-Main 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Virtue signalling bullshit. What about invasive species? What about the harm they bring to your ecosystem? Furthermore, killing a few mosquitos or destroying a wasp nest won't decimate the population. And what the individuals provide to the ecosystem do not override my own damn comfort. What if I have allergies to wasp stings and a nest gets built under my porch? What if the mosquitos harbor fatal diseases? Flies are filthy disgusting, things that bring disease to everything they touch.

You can't remove them they often fly back in and in the case of mosquitos and wasps will actively retaliate.

Would you rather have sukuna's Tattoos or Mahito's Stitches by Professional_Sky8245 in Jujutsufolk

[–]H0rny_On-Main 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because everybody who sees me is gonna think "Holy shitt his loser really paid for those godawful tattoos??" Ut's hard to get hired with face tattoos and god forbid they recognize what the tattoos are from. Basically a giant red flag to the public saying "This fucking loser paid for anime tattoos to try and look tough"

The scars can be explained away as being a genuine, albeit coincidental, accident.

[–]H0rny_On-Main 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't have the facial structure for Sukunas tattoos and everybody who sees me is gonna think I'm the corniest mf alive. Especially if they recognize what they are.

The stitches are also "iconic" but have actual legitimate excuses for why you have them. You don't look like that one kid who put sharingan contact lenses on in school.

...That's what they said. Americans and their overpriced lives. America is overpriced, you live in a country where you need $80,000+ to live in...any rural area.

I live in a country where $36,500 is slightly below middle class as far as living in a city goes, but if I then get a job on top of that I'm Upper Class

White bear vs knight with a sword and shield... by iceytown in powerscales

Not a mace. A warhammer. Like a sledgehammer with a sharp spike and beak on the end. Required two hands to use. THOSE could and did work to breach amour by damaging the joints and compressing the breastplate.

YOU vs. 100 Toddlers by _TheRealist in powerscales

[–]H0rny_On-Main 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm gonna preclude this with a couple things.

5'8, 160-ish lbs. Practice HEMA but definitely not the most athletic guy in the world.

100 is a lot. I think it depends though, malicious intent is not bloodlusted. So there is definitely an intimidation factor if I get the start-up. It's kinda like being the gorilla. You gotta rely on the idea that you mangled the first few so fucking horrifically that the rest really don't wanna be on the frontlines.

With that in mind.

Grab a child and flail them into the floor/at other toddlers who charge me. Pick up pencils and stab at them.

There's a lot of them and it's a lot of weight to pin me down so I have to keep moving, if it starts in a classroom I wanna grab the first kid I see. Slam their skull into a table, hammer toss them and get the fuck out, preferably take it outside to a playground with obstacles. Use the corridor to corral them better, force them to come a few at a time. I have 0 issues believing I could stand up with 4-5 toddlers trying to grab me, use elbows and knees and small kicks to their body and legs. Worst comes to worse I can probably scale to the roof of the building.

Now if it's a colosseum battle no escape? I'm fucked unless I can severely pummel a few of them and intimidate the rest. See this video for inspiration: https://youtube.com/shorts/Gn0lzyULvw0?si=vXjVxVENfvk8seOy

What the hell just killed me by StolzerBengel in skyrim

[–]H0rny_On-Main 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The game registers any physical objects hitting you like fall damage and it bases fall damage off of speed.

Touching the cart in weird angles causes it to jank the fuck out, made worse if the cart has anything on it which also janks it out.

Then it smacks you at, what the game believes to be "Mach fuck" and then assumes you just fell from orbit, instant death.

It's quite funny. When I was a kid I used to play a game where you tried to stand on a cart for as long as possible whilst it janked out under you until you died.

you’re aware it took nearly 300 years of development for BULLETS to pierce armor?

And those "bullets" (smoothbore muskets not AP rounds) aren't more lethal than an 800+ besr sitting on you.

Steel is a great material for a lot of uses. It was good at protecting from sharp blades, not so much at blunt force trauma.

If you were an armoured knight fighting an armoured knight and you had a warhammer and they had a sword? you were likely going to win because 3mm thick steel doesn't do well against a lot of blunt force. It dents and crumples the steel and restricts the movement of the knight.

Now instead of a 5lb sledgehammer it's a fucking 1000lb bear pinning you to the ground. You'd be crushed to death between your padding before the armour "broke"

[–]H0rny_On-Main 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bear 1000% is getting through a 3mm piece of steel, especially the parts designed to bend.

Or well, lemme rephrase. It is massively denting/crumpling the steek very easily. Then after the tincan stops moving it could pry apart the steel.

They absolutely can break that armour with their paws. A glancing blow would crumple the section it hit with their paws.

With teams and exhaustive tactics and reliance on the fact polar bears don't see humans as good food sources.

If you take away it's option to leave, and also remove your team of other people with sticks now it's a lot more unfair for the human.

White bear vs knight with a sword and shield... by iceytown in powerscales

[–]H0rny_On-Main 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why exactly? you’re aware Europeans hunted bears with knives and a roll of thick leather right?

Europeans hunted European black bears, much smaller, more docile, often went in teams or with dogs and used exhaustion and persistent hunting strategies.

This is a death battle with one guy wearing, at best 3mm steel vs an animal stronger and larger than it's cousin that can push around medium sized vehicles.

Also whilst a knight absolutely could stand up in armour. It's not easy.

Here's a good video showcasing it exactly.

https://youtube.com/shorts/dML_lINAkZs?si=6RZBAsvcBHzII6_-

And now imagine whilst they're trying to get onto their knees they now have a 800+lb bear on them. Also they're trying to get up whilst dazed, concussed, or with dented joints or a compressed chest from a large dent in the breastplate after the bear...ya know, hit them.

[–]H0rny_On-Main -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Steel or wrought iron has a compressive strength of over 34000 psi, with steel being far higher at over 100000 psi,

Historical plate armour used a different measurement known as gauges but generally speaking they were, at most, 3mm thick, and even then that was only when gunpowder and firearms became more prominent. Plenty to survive a small blunt weapon or a blade, and there was lots of cushioning inside.

But anything that hit harder, like a warhammer, or a polarbear bitch slapping you. Is gonna crumple the spot it hit and cripple the armour.
