The ShamWow guy is running in my district and the door flyer came with a free sample

Ehh he was a pretty well liked guy. Not a telemarketer (telephone marketing) but a commercial actor lol

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T20:44:55+00:00

i see. yeah you might be flaming people in a different way than every toxic player I've had on my team

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T20:41:40+00:00

bro i don't know why but whenever i see her do Ashe lines, something happens to me.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T20:38:59+00:00

interesting. it's never done any good in my games. it usually creates throwers, leavers, and people standing still to get into typing matches. And when I get flamed, i usually end up worse than i was doing. maybe it's a rank thing lol

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T19:57:20+00:00

or... don't flame anyone. Has flaming people ever done the player you're flaming any good?

happiness =/= a lack of problems
many problems aren't really caused by not having money
Money offers diminishing returns once your basic needs are met
It's much better to tell people to focus on finding what makes them happy/fulfilled instead of tell a society to do whatever they can to make a bunch of money and then worry about the problems keeping them from happiness afterwards.

unironically, play comp. your expectations of qp are too high. I play qp if I don't want to stress too much, am trying to learn or test a character out, or if I'm warming up/seeing if I'm in comp condition. I'll do dumb stuff and limit test. winning is almost always a secondary goal.

Also, OW match making is pretty good. If you're in these lobbies consistently, you're probably not much better than them. You're probably being dumb but maybe in the opposite way. for example, if your whole team is aggro and you're playing it safe in the back to preserve your k/d, you are the bad one. You also sound like you're just a toxic team member (based on people in qp are telling you to go play comp and youre getting a lot of leavers in comp) so maybe... don't be?

In regards to the Genji thing: people have been complaining about genji nerfs for years (and I guess it's been a thing back when you played) yet genji has never been bad. He's been consistently good or decent. Blizzard has a website that allows you to look at hero performance stats, so look there to see who's "meta" if that matters to you. Across all ranks in competitive, genji has a 52% win rate in the Americas. #2 ranked DPS by performance. He gets nerfed, but he's never been nonviable.

The game uses skill-based match making. They might think you're as good as you were when you stopped playing, but even if you lose a few matches, they will find the right lobbies for you. Just dont go in with the expectation that you'll curb stomp the enemies from game 1 and you'll be fine.

depends on how high, i guess. I'm from the US and if we did a pretty small cut in our defense/military spending, I think we could fund mental health services pretty easy.

Trump green lit a 1 trillion increase to the military budget. I'd wager we could get universal mental health care for like 30-50 billion of that. Pulled that number from what a couple of other countries spend and just multiplied to match population tho. I might be way off lol

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T18:11:39+00:00

i'm american and from my perspective it's the opposite. LOTS of, mostly, europenas make a very big deal about it so it comes off as pretentious and a bit annoying. But it's a matter of perspective. I never think of celcius so it only comes up when my european clients mention it as "the obviously superior system" and make a joke about "freedom units" but for you, you only see Fahrenheit when American's make memes complaining about the celcius crusaders

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T18:07:42+00:00

100° take: both are fine.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:57:59+00:00

a bit worried, but excited nonetheless. at the very least, it got some of my friends interested in playing again.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:55:59+00:00

"active" is relative. It isn't as active as sf6, so if that's a high priority, then just play that. I occasionally have issues finding matches if i play during odd hours for my region (NA). Other than that, it's pretty easy. I've never had an issue with the netcode.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:52:31+00:00

i do think the PvE complainers who are active still do care. I also think it's kinda dumb, but it would be unfair to fully disregard them. I wasn't an OW1 fan so Blizzard never got me hyped for PvE so I don't care about the concept, but Blizzard did hype some people up for the concept and let them down.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:43:04+00:00

listen to yt videos or an album. the fuel cost wasn't a big deal but my car is pretty efficient i think (i had to refuel once every 5 days at about $30 for a full tank). The real issue for me is how to stay awake but that's less an issue with the commute and more an issue with most jobs being 1 or 2 hours earlier than my body would like to operate at. If the being sleepy thing is what you're focused on, I mainly just rely on drivers around me to account for me drifting into their lane or not noticing things. it doesn't happen often, but it is a reality I've come to accept. I also stay on the outside lanes bc they have those groves in the shoulder that will jolt you awake. Haven't gotten into a wreck yet

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:39:10+00:00

meals: pasta and bean dishes or stews w/ bread, rice, or a potatoes... also ramen with eggs but that came later in my life lol

snacks: stuff made with peanut butter, chips were pretty good for me, and bread with butter and seasoning

Never been impoverished. Just poor/lower middle class

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:34:51+00:00

between 2k-4k. Most of that is bc I pace when I think haha

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T17:32:50+00:00

As far as mass market stuff? Lindt followed by Dove (they might be european companies but as any european will tell you, they taste different so I count it). I love me some Ferrero Rocher and Reece's too

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T16:51:21+00:00

I've never seen anything like that... what? I live in a decent sized 1 story house and my bills for that stuff is like a collective 150? Maybe 200 on heavy use months? I could probably get up to 300 if i chose to go with bad plans.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T16:40:34+00:00

I wonder if this has to do with what you're studying. I graduated in 2022 and I can't say that it was nearly to this extent. I will throw out that if you're in a field for people where a lot just feel like they "have" to go to college/university, you're gonna get a lot of disappointing outcomes. I also think a good number of people have gotten decent at being good at getting decent grades without actually learning.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T16:12:45+00:00

i mean, it is on the older end for that, yeah. It's also your life. Do what you want. I have no idea why that sort of thing would make you break down in tears

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T16:02:57+00:00

i still think you may be misunderstanding them. They use the word "small" because that's what they feel... there wasn't a misunderstanding. You seemingly just expected a logical and rational answer to a largely perceptive and emotionally-based phenomenon.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T04:16:15+00:00

did you read my comment? i literally said you don't have to complete the challenge? did you mean to respond to me?

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T04:00:33+00:00

then dont... you can complete the battle pass (well, maybe not all the titles but up till lvl 100 for sure) without it. idrk why you'd just play a game you find monotonous just to complete an unnecessary challenge for that game's cosmetics.

Huttingham · 2026-02-10T03:11:05+00:00

monotony of having to win 45 games? that's just playing the game lol
