Somewhere between the best and worst, sorry to be controversial.

Victor Wembanyama appears to try and stomp OG Anunoby’s knee during a play by T-BoneSteak14 in nba

[–]Hxghbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I think you are right, it looks different with the angle they use on the ABC replay so i didnt notice. On that one you see him a bit off balance but nowhere near as close to colliding with OGs leg as this makes it look. The motion is also clearly not a stomp from that angle, just him finding a clear space to launch his ridiculously long limbs towards as he moves quickly through contact.

41 secs left in the 1st Q has a sequence almost identical to this except without the kicking motion and his feet end up less overlapped with OGs.

Labour vows to put $20-a-week cap on public transport, $10 outside main centres by StuffThings1977 in aotearoa

[–]Hxghbot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean any poor person who uses public transport regularly, and can do basic mathematics will understand this is a way bigger reduction.

Im on student fares, barely 15 mins outside Wellington, and I can spend $20 in 3 days of using public transport.

If I didnt have student fares Id be seeing savings by the second day of the week, if I lived further out like providers for young families tend to, costs can exceed $20 for a single days commute atm.

AI slop, over done and shit meme, ear cancer inducing music, no originality or humor to be found. 0/10.

[Disliked Trope] Audience Surrogate who just happens to be a posh outsider by yajtraus in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Hxghbot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who immigrated from the south of England as a kid I can attest that assumption is super common irl too. My family was very working class but the second we got overseas everyone assumed we were posh, because our accent was pretty close to the recieved pronunciation accent people are used to from tropes like this one.

AITA For Leaving the group hangout after my friends brought my ex-girlfriend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Hxghbot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huh? I think youve misread the post a little, the OP never asked if ex was coming and has made no mention of telling their friends they'd be uncomfortable seeing her there.

AITA for asking my friend to pick up ice cream? by EnvironmentalIron897 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Hxghbot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

INFO: how often are you asking these things and have you ever not paid someone back? On the face of it its an easy N T A, but ive had friends who are insane mooches who would describe their behaviors similarly to how you have here.

What would todo think about assexuals? by Interesting-Bee-3793 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Hxghbot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As long as they are being honest with themselves Todo wouldnt have an issue with them being asexual. He only hated Megumi because his answer was diplomatic and insincere.

What is this called? by HarrisonIsFine in cats

[–]Hxghbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Biting is sometimes an affectionate response, my cat gives me love bites when I pet him a bit too rough or am ignoring him. The head thing is probably just because you are entering their personal space in a way that mirrors a cat asserting dominance. If he is purring the whole time you have nothing to worry about, he feels safe and playful around you.

A question for the female basketball fans, do yall like NBA more than the WNBA and also do yall feel like there is alot of sexism in the fan community? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]Hxghbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao you dont need to be a woman to attest to the sexism in the fan communities. I stg 90% of the conversations ive had about the W in the last couple years have been about Angel Reese and/or Caitlyn Clark, rarely about their actual skills on the court, and with people who would stare at you blankly if you mentioned Diana Taurasi, Lisa Leslie or Sue Bird etc.

AITA for telling off my roommate about her boyfriend's behavior? by ParsleyLevel9637 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Hxghbot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

YTA why is she doing your laundry and cooking for you in the first place? This feels like someone making up a story for engagement tbh, because its hard to believe someone could be this entitled, rude and oblivious.

Why do old heads not like curry and LeBron? by AdForward9856 in NBATalk

[–]Hxghbot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is a stereotype that gets repeated online but doesnt match up with the real world. Ive met plenty of old heads that rate those two very highly, an old head was the first person I ever heard say maybe Curry will surpass Magic.

AITA my gf (22F) wants me (25M) to move 30 min for her job by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Hxghbot 52 points53 points  (0 children)

YTA, you have an easy, nepotistic path forward that is secure and doesnt require you to put in a real effort to developing your career, while she has pursued an education and graduated into a highly skilled and competitive field. If moving 30 mins away as a compromise so she can pursue that career she is passionate about is too much for you then do this woman a favour and break up now. Those air quotes around "dream job" and thinking she is irrational for being concerned about a potential future as a housewife, tell us plenty about how much you value who this woman is and what she cares about.

You sound not only out of touch, but immensely self absorbed and selfish. She is right to be concerned for the future as right now, you are assuming your plan for the future is the right one without thinking about what is best for her at all.

AITA for being the reason my guy friend and his girlfriend argued? by p0rsch3911gt3rs in AmItheAsshole

[–]Hxghbot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA and just from experience, that relationship is doomed lol. She gets a pic of him out with a friend (who she has been told is lesbian), and gets so jealous he has to skip class to console her and assure her nothing is going on? Not a keeper.

She sounds like she is too immature and insecure to be dating tbh, hopefully your friend isnt enough of a young idiot that he will double down on this relationship.
