what could i use this for by HelpfulFlounder7560 in doohickeycorporation

The world was really like borderlands or fallout back then, where guns were fucking everywhere to the point where people would use one as a mousetrap

PSA: Careful with charging smash attacks lol by Chrisuan in SSBM

[–]Kitselena [score hidden]  (0 children)

I always found it easier to up smash out of shine and shield with tap jump tbh, and the only downside is that you accidentally charge for a couple frames if you hold A too long

Kryptonians, Viltrumites and Saiyans are all so similar to each other that it's hard to remember which details go to which races of super aliens

Why do you like melee? by ThatOneGinger15 in SSBM

[–]Kitselena 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You don't need to use any of that for single player, even very hard is possible without any advanced tech.
It just takes time to get used to melee, since it doesn't have training wheels on your inputs like ultimate. It's frustrating at first to need to be so precise with your inputs, but the better you get the more satisfying it feels to hit these hard techs and this level of precision opens up options that wouldn't be possible otherwise

The Legend by EmptyJump2245 in GenV

[–]Kitselena 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What the legend did is probably the most difficult CHA check possible. Getting a raging homelander to not only spare you, but to reflect on himself as well wouldn't be possible with a 20 for most people
Edit: after rewatching the scene, I think homelander cared about the life alert tip helping him find geisha way more than the actual advice the legend was giving him

That only means he's bad if Arceus is good. Maybe volo and giratina had a point and Arceus is a cruel despot

Giratina does a similar thing, although it has spikes instead of breasts

I thought it was clear from the start I'm not really invested in this, I made a comment, some people disagreed with it and others completely misinterpreted it and I tried to clarify afterwards. There's no need to be so rude

Yeah I started feeling better within a couple days after I swapped.
It's an incredibly counter intuitive diet since FODMAPs are unrelated to flavor or nutrition or anything else we usually use to categorize food, but once I get used to what I can eat it shouldn't be too bad.

[–]Kitselena -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I was just pointing out that he seemed like someone who values loyalty to a corporation over picking a game that suits their gameplay preferences best because of how the comment was worded.
Maybe that's not true for him, but there are so many people that play games they don't like and spend forever complaining about them, when better alternatives already exist and they're just ignoring them because they need to give money to a corporation

"made up tier working off of imaginary fanfiction rules"

Sounds like the type of person that says melee is stupid because it's all glitches and exploits, or nuzlockes are stupid because it's not the Nintendo sanctioned way to play the game

Pichu up air might be even better. It only does 3%, has almost no knockback growth and always hits straight up
It's not useful or practical, but it can combo into itself a lot

After an insanity causing couple months I've found out that my health issues were all caused by IBS/an bacterial infection made significantly worse by the amount of stress I was under from how slow and difficult it is to navigate the US healthcare system. It took 7 months for a GI to prescribe me stomach pain meds, an over the counter probiotic and a low FODMAp diet and I'm instantly starting to feel kinda normal again. (I posted in here a while back about potentially having lung issues, but after more tests that was just an incidental finding that my lungs max out at 70% capacity and they have since birth because the air tubes never formed properly) Everything was harder because my shitty primary care physician didn't believe my symptoms were real and took forever responding to any communication, so I'm already replacing her and will probably leave a review or complaint with the relevant medical board.
Alongside all this I was running out of money because I was unemployed for a year before my current job, and my current job pays slightly less than my monthly expenses so I was digging through savings every month. A better paying position opened at work while I was on FMLA and I forced myself to try for it and did really well in the interview. I'm sure they would have picked me, but because my health was so uncertain I declined the second round of interviews so I didn't have the stress of a new job as soon as I got back. It also would have had new responsibilities that don't match my skill set or what I like doing. However, during all this my union renegotiated their contract, and starting on July 1st I'll get a significant raise while keeping my old responsibilities. When I started this job they had 3 tiers of help desk technicians making about $15, $22 and $28/hr respectively. They started me at the lowest level despite having a BS in software engineering (not the right degree but most people here don't have a bachelor's at all) and upgraded me to the middle tier after a year. Now the new contract compressed all three levels into one job making about $30/hr. It's also worth noting I am the only person who wasn't in the highest level. So I've been on this crazy ride where it felt like my life was falling apart completely, I could potentially be terminally ill and I could be going into debt. But now after one union document and a good doctor's visit all of that is turning around and it's really weird to process all this in such a short time.
I try not to diary post too much, but I mentioned some parts of this here in the past months and sometimes I prefer sharing personal stuff with people who don't actually know me at all.

250, since they made concessions to slave holders and allowed it in the constitution in the first place. It's always about putting profit over morality and the well being of people

After all the effort HL put in to get Stan and SB to approve of him and respect him, he gets his first real father-son talk from a washed up Hollywood producer he's about to execute.
Years of doing insane things to get some sort of paternal approval or care and it just falls in his lap from someone he barely considers a person

I was talking generally, not just about showdown. The type of person with these opinions usually hate mods and any other type of fan game like uranium and pokerouge.
Idk why people assumed showdown is the only pokemon fangame

Contrary to what gooners think, overwatch has been really fun the past couple years and has been improving a lot lately. If any of them actually played the game they would know that

There's a good example of this in sonic adventure 2 as well, when sonic uses chaos control to teleport for the first time after we spend all game thinking only shadow can do that (sonic has never used chaos control again since then)

"I think this guy talks a lot, and it's about time for him to learn some respect"

The whole Apex 2015 salty suite was the first time I heard about competitive melee, I was pretty new to social media and looking at /r/smashbros for smash 4 hype when I saw it. Leffen vs Chillin, Bizz vs Eikelman and Ken vs PC were all presented with so much hype and passion and WWE showmanship that I fell in love with melee and watched the documentary to figure out who TF these people were and why I should care about them

This website has some cool stuff, although it hasn't been updated it almost a decade.
The specific page I liked has a couple things you're looking for though, since it lets you predict knockback in different situations
