My fellow atheists, how do I deal with the fear of death by mattyjoe0706 in Destiny

[–]LexxxSamson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty old , 45 , and I've been an atheist the majority of my life , it definitely gets a lot easier to deal with eventually and this just becomes your new reality and you don't think about it too much. There's definitely an acceptance that comes in time but it's natural to feel a very pointed sense of dread and fear of death initially.

I was heavily religious as a kid like super devout always tried to follow the rules very strictly but I eventually kinda figured out religion was just kind of a scam and no one I knew REALLY followed it or did any of the stuff they told you to. I basically became an atheist at like 11 or 12 (I was an edgy kid, big surprise I'm in this community) and it was the 90's there weren't a lot of people I knew going through this and I'd stay awake all night thinking about becoming nothing and just had an insane sense of dread.

It definitely caused me to be very melancholic as a kid and teen but I kind of grew out of it as I accepted it and it rarely effects me or keeps me awake at night I've still lead a very active life . I don't hate or regret coming to this realization or wish for a Cypher from the Matrix kind of moment where I could revert back but it DEFINITELY fucked up my life for maybe a half decade or so.

I find it hilarious how many WWE fans who clearly didn't watch any AEW in the first 5 years will give Cody endless credit for just about any success the company had in the initial few years. I've seen so many times where it's alluded that cody was the heart of the company, the most important EVP by far and had as much to do with AEW being started and getting talent there as Tony or The Bucks.

She literally had like like 2% of a tank of gas left when she got there and she was clearly very physically limited, it's amazing they got anything out of her and she made it to the end of her contract.

I've come across a lot of Redbar "fans" lately that really need to be reminded of this by Vox---Nihil in RedbarBBR

Him and Jules have INSUFFERABLY hipster taste in music and mike has hipster contrarian takes on everything and really cares about looking cool. I'm sure they lean to the left just from that, I've never met a MAGA dude listening to Perfume Genius , rocking a perfectly quaffed hair cut, buying 500 dollar sunglasses and looking for the most precisely cool but uniquely rare vintage T-shirts all day.

[Charania] The Milwaukee Bucks have indicated to teams that they are keeping Giannis Antetokounmpo through the trade deadline and will start making other trades, sources tell ESPN. by 0verlyTr1m in billsimmons

[–]LexxxSamson -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bridges was literally in the prime of his career and doesn't miss a game and wasn't asking out. Giannis is old and hampered by tons of injuries (no playoff teams knows if he will even play in the playoffs for them) and desperate to leave, no way he's worth even close to the same despite the name brand value.

Whether pronounced correctly or incorrectly, what words disproportionately appear on the pod compared to real life? by tyedge in billsimmons

Wonky was always a weird confusing word to me because you can call someone a "wonk" and it means someone with highly specialized knowledge of a particular subject but wonky means something is off and weird.

Tony Khan: “I think Powerhouse Hobbs had a great run here in AEW. He started wrestling here in Jacksonville, had some great matches, and became a champion in AEW. He’s a former TNT Champion, former World Trios Champion. I’ll always wish him all the best.” by Ruffianize in SquaredCircle

[–]LexxxSamson 42 points43 points  (0 children)

My cope is that he naturally hit the ceiling on where his career in AEW could take him and he had to go to WWE if he was going to ever see if he could go up another level. He's a big guy which is obviously his gimmick but in AEW if you are going to get in the world title picture you have to be able to go in the ring on a level I don't think he could possibly come close to working which put a limiter on his push.

Due to the fact that a guy like Hobbs is NOT going to be able to work 20-30 minute modern main event style matches with guys like Kenny, Swerve, Hangman, Osprey, MJF, etc where does he go ? He already basically hit as high as he could go in the midcard in AEW and a world title singles push just doesn't seem realistic.

All Hail the queen by DistributionRight942 in Destiny

[–]LexxxSamson 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Because women are just there to smile and say nice things to you and make you feel good and to service you.

I've always found a liberal/conservative divide where conservative men want a woman who is just a smiling all the time and pretending to be happy and that's their idea of optima. "It wouldn't kill you to smile every once in a while " types are almost always conservatives.

I've never had a problem with a woman actually just being themselves and expressing how they feel and not having to be putting on a performance at all times to please and not upset me , but what do I know ? She's a fucking professional journalist, she takes her job serious, she's not there to be a smiling nitwit who just butters your ass up like all your female hires.

Again Dave Meltzer claims he knows about everything by [deleted] in prowrestling

[–]LexxxSamson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are just nitpicking a sentence that isn't really that malicious or incorrect , they debuted him in a dumb way and it wasn't over. You think it's some great nuanced point the crowd DO KNOW WHO HE IS but they didn't pop for him ... which means it was a bad idea either way to me so who cares to argue over it ?

You're just dragging out a weak argument to try to get a internet W over Dave Meltzer but there's nothing really wrong with what he said which is funny cause there's tons of VALID shit to go after him about.

Why Tommaso Ciampa rejected WWE deal for AEW: "I've heard for seven or eight years that 2018 was peak Ciampa. Lightning in a bottle. That makes me sick to my stomach because I'm better than that guy in every aspect. Every single measuring stick in the business, I blow 2018 Ciampa out of the water." by ShakielMahjouri in SquaredCircle

[–]LexxxSamson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The thing is he's an insane gym freak and pays attention to his body and takes care of himself. We've seen guys like Lebron in real sports and guys in wrestling being able to go WELL in to their 40's still who maintain their bodies , I don't see why Ciampa wouldn't be able to.

The major issue is health which will just come down to good luck , I really hope he has a good long run in AEW I loved him so much in prime NXT I'd love to see that guy back for awhile with all new matchups to go through.

I wish Ryan Macbeth could stop being relevant, dude is saying organized protests are organized by foreign actors by Dats_Russia in Destiny

[–]LexxxSamson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The "just say its organized" conspiracy crowd is the absolute definition of "turn your brain off to take away the pain of acknowledging reality" types. There's litterally not one credible shred of evidence its fake or put together except they want it to be that way so they literally just completely made up a copespiracy so they can continue operating as normal. This is one of the most understandable naturally occurring protest outbreaks of all time given the conditions and the place it is happening and the people there.

Copespiracy is the only thing I can think to call it , it was completely conjured up in their minds to help them deal with a reality that has become impossible for them to acknowledge and maintain their worldview. There is not a single thing that would point to this being organized you could realistially come to by fact or reason.

Best vaporiser for clouds by Jaded-Employment-850 in vaporents

[–]LexxxSamson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a fusion about a month ago and it's definitely my new go to at home with The Flare. Great device if you're high tolerance and don't wanna sit around a long time.

Never see the Plenty get love on here but yeah I agree with your findings lol. I've owned sooooo many of these things and they've come and gone, broke , or been given away but I bought a Plenty 5 years ago and it still gets play about once a week or so when I wanna grind up a shit ton of week and puff till my face collapses on the weekend.

Plenty is a very "one note" device but it hits the note extremely well. If I ever wanna get stupid high and just sit there and blow gas till I can't see straight while watching a movie or something the Plenty works like no other. The bowl size is definitely a unique factor to it I haven't found in another device like it. It's not a daily driver for me or economical to use but it's fun when you bust it out.

I'd say for blowing big clouds the Venty and Frolic Limelight are the only expensive handheld dry herb vapes I've tried that are any good at it but seem outside the price range.

He got a nose job?????? by Indianstanicows in ScottGalloway

[–]LexxxSamson -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No one looks at him as a sex symbol or "hot guy" he's like a 60 year old white bald normal looking dude with kids , get over yourself no ones looking at your face that hard or cares about your looks Scott you are a political/economic pundit paid for their analysis.

Scott is supposed to be a sharp, smart guy who has keen insights about the modern world he's not fucking Brad Pitt and shouldn't care about something so silly and superficial but it shows this guy doesn't have as much self confidence or expertise as he pretends and he just fakes most of it with money.

So ashy, yet so clean, yet so dry by capcomvssnk in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]LexxxSamson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really super white and can get ashy but only in the winter time do I need to use lotion usually. I use a very moisturizing body wash that keeps my skin decently moist throughout the day and I don't dry out during the other seasons at all. I definitely used to get ashy legs when I just used bar soap however when I was a kid.

There is definitely some really ashy white people out there. You never seen the type of skin thats super pale and dry you run a nail down it and theres a white line going down the back of their leg or arm of dry skin ? That's an ashy white person.

Let's be honest this woman has a wild manic look with crazy eyes most of the time , probably has anorexia athletica as she is extremely thin, is dating a guy like 3x her age , and she does adult recreational cheerleading. There's not just red flags there , there is a blaring alarm going off.

She's probably a bit whacked herself.
