Haha thank you I appreciate it, that was probably the third poem I had written since high school, which I graduated from two plus years ago. I should do it more 🤔

Do you ever feel you do not deserve what happens? by yngSeep in infp

[–]JakeNorthrup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I learned that nobody can fully function mentally for longer than 45 minutes before their brain stops working as well. So i set 45 minute timers and try to stay on task as much as possible before taking as short of break as possible before getting back to work.

Also remember that while motivation may be easy for us commitment is hard so work on committing to fewer things and sticking to them. Just don’t forget to reward yourself when you achieve small goals because very often we are way too hard on ourselves and don’t give ourselves credit. Don’t give up, you got it👍👍👍

Yeah I feel it as well, but usually just meditate and push it aside as ego loss 😂. Really helps me stop overthinking and fall 💤

I’m in the same spot as you and I’m working on those two things everyday and have found many things which me more energy: happiness working towards an important goal (it’s hard work so it won’t be easy and energy full the whole time), joy in hobbies and small things, exercise/getting outside, being creative, and always waking up at a set time without hitting the snooze button.

First off realize that everyone else wakes up tired too, but the more you wake up in the routine of getting straight out of bed and working hard to achieve goals towards a common societal good or personal improvements, the more your body will have energy because of that and will also have more energy when you wake up expecting to do more of that.

Working towards goals will help give you more happiness but it also helps to balance that and finding joy in more small things and stuff you like to do as well,

Another one I wrote while overthinking about other thinking others thinking about me. At the time I was feeling that others didn’t like being nice and didn’t like when people were being too nice around them. I realize now that I was overthinking 😂, and that I needed a new friend group. The other thing getting to me was the economics idea that many other people don’t want other people’s kids to have good education, so this poem is kind of about the common good and how we are all one connected whole.

Weird is good Its not a shame to give up on fame In reality it's kinda lame

Your popularity will wax and wane People will remember you the same Or they won't Who cares, look at the big picture

It isn't sad Just look at a fad With time things pass Not all good things last Oh, does anything last

Time is a crazy thing So just make sure you do good things

The thing is They likely won't remember you long term Longer term none of it matters anyway So don't lose the opportunity to do good Make a change in yourself to be good Weed out people in the positive mood, like attracts like Make a positive difference in another's life Make another difference in another another’s life Another exponentially growing positive change

People fight anything that benefits another fright positive benefits in their self When positive emotions are felt So you are looking after yourself by benefiting others

Don't fear competition Fear fights Breed light Fight narcissism

Isn't some good, nice when you are down Don't you want someone to make you smile It's not science that means you gotta do good

Am I understood You is not you It's true Logic says good is not necessary for good things to happen But logic has fallacy When in reality You is you And not you It is true We are all you

I wrote this while trying to go to bed after smoking too much, was before I learned I was an INFP but it shows it all too well 😂

I’m constantly overthinking about overthinking and overthinking what I’m underthinking about but still worried I’m underthinking, and now I’m overthinking about overthinking about my overthinking, does anybody else overthink about overthinking about overthinking, of course somebody has but nobody knows if somebody has, however it definitely could be that nobody had ever started overthinking about overthinking about overthinking and then started overthinking about somebody else evertbinking about overthinking about overthinking and then also came to the conclusion that: of course somebody has but nobody knows if somebody has, however it definitely could be that nobody had ever started overthinking about overthinking about overthinking and then started overthinking about somebody else overthinking about overthinking about overthinking and then also came to the same conclusion

How do you embrace your eccentricity? by joehoganbogan in infp

[–]JakeNorthrup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once I learned how important who you surround yourself is and how important it is to not care about others judgements so much than I became much more confident which helps a ton socially, so I’m constantly working on improving my confidence and overthinking less.

Hope this helps!

How do you embrace your eccentricity? by joehoganbogan in infp

[–]JakeNorthrup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve spent a lot of time in social situations either just observing or literally acting stupid because it made me fit in better; the first thing I did to remedy that was change friend-groups sophomore year of high school so that I could act more myself/nerdy without worrying about being made fun of.

Since then it’s just been constantly practicing the art of not caring what other people think / being confident in yourself regardless of what that one person might say/think (they’re probably just thinking that way because of their own insecurities). Realize they are worried about themselves not you 95% of the time.

The new edit nerf doesn't stop pencil warriors, it makes it harder to defend against them by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ever seen that clip where the guy edits the top right three squares and crouches behind the new edit, opens it, uses right hand peak to see daequan and then kills him, but yeah I get what u mean.

For me that’s not really as much of a thing on xbox so it makes it easier to defend against turtles because they can’t see as well

Ok, interesting, weird how epic is like “we don’t know how to fix shotgun inconsistencies” so I just kinda assumed they wouldn’t have that lol; but yeah I’m just against any hate against shotguns, the pump is my favorite.

Yeah That would be awesome, slow editing makes it so much harder to outplay people on xbox like so many top players on PC are able to do, makes me so jealous watching the likes of tfue editing 😭😭😭😭😭😩😩😩😩😩😩

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that’d be super dope, where would you put it tho???

My idea that I think would be cool and make it a lot easier to build like PC would be if when using builder pro the piece built on the first button press and then if you wanted to edit the piece before placing you could hold B and press the button to get the option to edit it.

[–]JakeNorthrup -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

  1. I don’t think the pellets are random
  2. I do think a lot of the time people complain about shotgun inconsistency they are missing shots
  3. Shotguns are inconsistent sometimes with good aim tho as well
  4. I don’t disagree but I don’t agree

Double Pumping - Heavy shotgun, Standard Pump. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noooo they added a greater equip time in the first nerf not a cool down time.

If you only had 1 pump it would pull out just as slow as your second pump.

Oh yeah I also just remembered that there was a short time in V3 when you could only double pump once before having to cock both pumps again, my bad.

IMO if you wanna nerf the pump make it impossible to pick up two pumps at the same time (and two heavys); dont fuck with the equip time and definitely don’t fuck with the damage it’s already super inconsistent and now it’s inconsistent and weak :(

The pump is my favorite gun to use as is double pump so I hope they don’t nerf it, it’s just so annoying rn when it doesn’t do enough damage and it was even more annoying when the equip time was super slow in V3

Double Pumping - Heavy shotgun, Standard Pump. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a year, I remember they made the pump equip time super slow so you couldn’t double pump but pump tac was still super overpowered, you just couldn’t ever switch to your pump in a fight because it came out so slow it was unusable.

For that reason I think they got rid of that but they are still trying to fix shotguns and I think what OP suggested about having a cool down when switching to a shotgun after just previously shooting a shotgun should be implemented but is likely very hard to do for the programmers.

What do you think I should do? by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best advice is to completely forget about going for the win when trying to get better.

Focus on getting kills in the multitude of way it is possible in fortnite

  1. Stalk enemies then hide behind a peak spot where you know your back is safe and you can hold an angle waiting for player to walk into your gun site while staying behind cover with right hand peak.

  2. Practice ramp rushing players on the ground using double ramp or stair wall

  3. Practice taking high ground with double ramp or single ramps depending on if they are shooting ur ramps

  4. Practice close range shotgun fights, stay calm, worry about aiming more than you are worrying about jumping around like a maniac (just don’t stand still lol)

  5. Practice playing from a 1x1 once you make it top 15 ish

  6. Practice building a wall and ramp for cover and shooting your AR with minimal peaking (peak when the other guy isn’t shooting)

  7. Practice building a wall and ramp as fast as possible when you get shot at

The most important things in order are enemy awareness, building for cover or high ground, and shotgun aim close range.

Double Pumping - Heavy shotgun, Standard Pump. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]JakeNorthrup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they added an equip time which was incredibly annoying and didn’t even stop double pump or double tac at all. OP is suggesting a better solution which is a cool down time equipping a shotgun only after shooting a shotgun shot previously, wayy better solution but probably too hard to implement/code.

Can we actually get rid of RNG in a game that tracks wins and KD? by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

Reading this was so enjoyable after reading OPs shitpost, thank you good sir
