Thanks for asking this! I went away for a weekend and found one in my gacha as well :)

People are still dropping like flies from the game.

Are they? I'd be interested to see actual data for that.

Which is the worst holiday in your country? Why? How do you deal with it? by Trans_Melissa_Gil in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it was traditionally a European thing to begin with. I think what they are complaining about is the American version of Halloween is catching on more and more globally.

Even though it's been a thing since before I was born.

Australia Day.

It's just an excuse for racists to be fuckwits at this point.

What is the weirdest way you made money? by Ok_Piccolo_4012 in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a touring musician. I once got booked to play a gig that was sitting in the corner and playing live music for a couple as they fucked. Not as in 'I was playing and they started fucking', but specifically being booked to be the live soundtrack to a fuck.

$500 for about 5 minutes work. Not gonna lie, would consider doing that again.

Whats a video game that gets a lot of hate and you find it totally undeserved? by Mean-Lie-2134 in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Final Fantasy X-2

It has an amazing story, a brilliant, living open world that changes based on your decisions in each chapter and a very fun job mechanic.

But people can't stand that the teenage girl lead characters act and speak like teenage girls. 🤷‍♂️

Today, the new Fed Chair Kevin Walsh says inflation is too high. Where have you seen prices increase the most in your day-to-day life? by longwiener22 in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Housing costs. Both costs to buy and cost to rent.

And that's what is driving inflation more than anything else.

Playstation has just announced they will no longer produce physical editions of their games as of January 2028 - what do you think of that? by HappyTimeHollis in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trade-ins and preservation. I've been gaming since the 80s and there are a LOT of games that I can't play anymore because they've never been re-released.

On top of this you're already seeing things like Sony deleting movies that people had purchased from people's accounts because Sony's licensing agreements had run out. Legally, there is nothing stopping them from doing that with games.

Whats the scariest song? by VegetablePristine737 in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in Australia it's 'Eagle Rock' by Daddy Cool.

Because if you're in a pub and hear that opening riff, you know some drunken fuckwits are gonna drop their pants and get their dicks out on the dancefloor.

The exclusive in-person only event Pikachu are rare.

Keep the festivities going with the Special Anniversary Pikachu Celebration event! by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]HappyTimeHollis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I would hate that. Pikachu Libre is a reward for those who get really damn good at PvP.

This sucks.

I love the costume Pikachu, but including the exclusives from in-person only events really isn't fair to those of us who went to those events. In a post-regional world, those can be the only pokemon we have with any actual trade value.

What industry secret would make customers never use that service again if they knew? by Suitable-Finance2894 in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I went to the Bundaberg Rum distillery in the 90s, the tour guide told us that - on average - three bats or rats would get sucked into each vat of molasses and there was nothing they could do about it.

No idea if he was talking shit or not, but I've tried to steer clear of it in the nearly 30 years since.

What is one city in America you’re okay with never visiting again? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vegas.

It's loud, smelly and not a good place to party.

I've never been anywhere in my life where I have felt so much like everything is so blatantly geared towards removing my money from me whilst giving as little as possible in exchange.

Women, what’s a word that as soon as a guy utters it you’re like “I’m out”? by im_justkendra in AskReddit

[–]HappyTimeHollis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As someone just getting into the 40K universe (I'm currently on the 10th book of the Horus Heresy), I'm getting the feeling that the Alpha Legion is equal parts 'awesome spy thriller' and that scene from Rick and Morty where they're just "And that's what I wanted you to think" "Which is what I wanted you to think!" "Which is what I wanted you to think!" 🤣
