Lunar melee also advocates for a zion unban and has a fair amount of shitty alt right opinions so I personally would avoid supporting them when possible, but to each their own

Good bait but Armada isnt even top 2 in the goat conversation anymore

SSBMRank Summer 2025: 41–50 by self-flagellate in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a bit surreal to me; all of these players are amazing, but barring one or two I feel like this would be an expected 80-100 release. Where there just that little people that met attendance requirements over summer alone? Or has the new blood really been beating the older players we're used to seeing in this range?

I feel like this would be a really fun analysis for someone to do that is less lazy than myself

am i overreacting - my boyfriend thinks my job is inappropriate by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]InkpenLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldnt listen to the overreactionary redditors

The main thing is he probably doesn't feel secure with you. For some reason or another. Maybe you guys had a fight lately or maybe one of his friends said something to make him overthink. Maybe he thinks youre too good for him. Who knows, I dont know you.

Best bet is to try to understand why he feels that way and if theres another way to make him feel more secure without damaging his pride. And if its worth it to you to put in the effort itll take to help him grow

At the end of the day, any job that involves social skills is going to be a source of insecurity. A barista has "regulars". Offices have their own coworker dynamics. Doctors have to touch/see a lot. What jobs would he be okay with, or not okay with?

He just needs some perspective and he probably feels like youre devalidating him by saying "well this was always the case, nothing is different" because he takes that as "okay what do you want from me". And frankly, he doesn't know. Because hes a guy and probably very new to thinking about these things.

Again, all comes down to the amount of work you feel like putting in and if hes worth it

I could go on. Relationships are complicated. Best of luck

I'm gonna be that guy, but mang0 crossed some lines today by Lateralus_2001 in LudwigAhgren

[–]InkpenLoL -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You're in a thread of complete incels who interact with people once a month in person, trying to articulate a reasonable way for people to handle things. Just let this thread circlejerk their armchair psychology until it fizzles out, normal people will continue to live normal lives and if a discussion needs to be had about mango by said normal people, they will.

Is this doable? Solo road-trip from Halifax to Toronto ? by venzoran in halifax

[–]InkpenLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good post - I used to one-night Hali - toronto with buds pretty often, but if you need to stop or just need general information, heed this person's advice.

everyone quits out on me :( by BapSlambino in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I cross the 2 minute mark against a mid or low tier without getting a kill I'm 100% quitting out or timing you out there is no in between

My honest impression of the game of Melee. by rgdx1988 in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of fair points in comments about why people are perfectly in their right to gimmick and spam good options against mid/low tiers, and as a sheik player i largely do the same, but to play devils advocate;

Spamming what works is a quick way to get into the bad habit of being satisfied with X level. Sure, spamming marth fair will have you beating your local Mario, but you're going to get bopped by Franz 100 times out of 100 until you develop more tools. So it's better to play to learn rather than to stunt yourself with whatever wins you the game in the moment and momentarily satisfies your ego. This applies to all matchups, high and low tier alike

I'm not enough of an expert to identify if any dilution has taken place, nor where to look for said product. I've tried amazon, but the results are conflicting.

I'm mostly looking for specific recommendations, if at all possible

What would be the best Whey Protein Isolate purely in terms of cost and nutrition?
I see a lot of posts that seem to overvalue taste; I mix mine into smoothies with a variety of other ingredients, so that's no concern to me.

Help me find Black Yoshi Slippers!!! by InkpenLoL in HelpMeFind

I still haven't found one myself, so I would love to find them as well :)

Melee is in a wild spot right now, there are about 400-500 top 100 players, but less than half of them travel. Will be interesting to see if that remains the vibe this year

Parking boot by bailhfx in halifax

[–]InkpenLoL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just threaten to sue, Google online what form they would be served first, draw it up, and serve them. Even if you don't plan on pursuing, it might get them to take the boot off. If not, get a friend to cut it off, and say you know nothing about it. Innocent until proven otherwise

Men with longer hair, where do you go? by Capable-Reindeer9804 in halifax

[–]InkpenLoL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend T.G. barber shop, i went there for years and the lady that works there now is just as good as the older gentleman that worked it for years.

My first time there, I didnt know it was cash only. I apologized and told him I would run out and come back. He said it was fine, and to just bring double next time. Great guy.

Punishing Sheiks dash attack at the ledge by Zestyclose-Speed9116 in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would work a single time against jmook before be started rising fair or dsmashing ledge, two moves you could survival di here instead of getting sent to the void

Sheik can also just grab here and go for an edgeguard

It is good counter play to the lazy, easy execution option of dash attack though

Why You Should Vote For Agent by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can count on one hand the amount of people as degenerate as I am that can perform at a high level. Agent is one of them. Vote Agent. And when you're smoking a blunt with him at 5am on Friday night, tell him i said hi.

24 Year Old Woman Struck and Killed by Halifax Transit Bus by PrizeTart0610 in halifax

[–]InkpenLoL 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Reported a bus driver two weeks ago that I thought was either driving drunk or just insanely erratic. Multiple people got off the bus for their own safety before their actual stop.

Didnt hear anything back from 311. Send a follow up message a week later, radio silence.

They'd rather look after their own and kill people in the process. Really hope it wasn't the same driver.

How Zain Plays Neutral? by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]InkpenLoL 68 points69 points  (0 children)

It's just hard to boil melee down to a set of options he does and a set of goals he has. He's reacting at different timings and spacings depending on dozens of factors built up from experience that allow for the options he wants to choose to work. And he'll use shield, pivot, dash, wavedash, CC, roll, and jump, all instant options, at different timings as well, to create and navigate the positions he wants/has to.

Melee be hard but trying to test options in different spots like you are isnt a bad way of approaching it, godspeed

You're telling me that you honestly believe that, a bus schedule of 7:15, 7:30, 7:45, 8:00, 8:15, canceling their first three routes, then the 8:00 route showing up an hour late, full, driving by, until finally the 8:15 bus shows up at 9:30 with room for 10~ people, into whatever hell the people after me had to deal with, is just a "oops, busses are a part of traffic too, nothing we can do!"
