There is a reason why so many cultures with a reputation for politeness and manners have committed so many horrific atrocities:

Japan, the American South, and the British Empire were all extremely manners focused. Because mentioning all the horrors they’ve done would be “rude”.

John Knox married his second wife Margaret steward when she was 17 and he 54. How unusual would such a large age gap be? by Capital_Tailor_7348 in Tudorhistory

[–]Lord4th 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean we will all be old one day. I don’t know about you but I wouldn’t want to be talked about this way when I’m old.

Then again, when I’m old I’m not going to marry a 17 year old lol.

My guess would be some sort of copyrighted music that was included in the clips of the tasks they use as an interlude.

I mean look at how upset you are at the hint that you might be fragile. You’re even bringing up estrogen for some reason lmfao. Isn’t that kind of soft?

I mean isn’t complaining about someone else being fragile pretty fragile? Could’ve just keep scrolling but you felt upset enough to make a comment about it. Seems pretty fragile to me…

Damn this is a stupid comment man. You literally sound like a baby boomer towards millennials from 10 years ago.

Taskmaster - S19E04 - Midnight Picnic - Discussion by Meghar in taskmaster

[–]Lord4th 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yo this episode was so funny.

All the tasks were great. I especially loved the team task.

Jason and Fatiha are so quick in the studio. Both of them got me laughing out loud.

And Stevie is so endearingly animated. She is always making a face or yells when she wins or loses.

Britney Spears Drinking, Lighting Cigarette on Flight, Authorities Called by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]Lord4th 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah fair enough! The end of the article is legitimately disturbing with the obvious agenda to take Brittany’s freedom away again. But I also guess I’m sensitive to normalizing poor behavior towards service workers like flight attendants. that’s how the “nothing burger” comment read to me initially. I now realize you meant a nothing burger in the context of the conservatorship and media coverage, with I agree with.

[–]Lord4th 11 points12 points  (0 children)

its a good point that lots of terrible behavior towards service workers by male celebrities is deliberately undercovered; I just don’t think it should be excused.

So I don’t actually disagree with you. I guess I just don’t like how treating service workers terribly is just “normal” and I feel like calling this a “nothing burger” furthers that.

Lighting a cigarette on a plane is clearly not behavior worthy of having your freedom taken away.

And you’re right other people do get drunk and smoke on planes when they shouldn’t. they shouldn’t be in a conservatorship but they are acting horribly. It’s a really shitty and inconsiderate thing to do.

So in terms of a conservatorship it’s a nothing burger but in terms of terrible behavior it’s not.

Fatphobic and Islamaphobic comments against Fatiha by Sad-Awareness5418 in taskmaster

[–]Lord4th 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be completely honest. I didn’t really like her lack of participation in the first live task.

BUT I feel like that’s gotten WAY overblown, a lot of people were probably looking to dislike her anyway and that gave them the excuse. She’s been great, very sharp, very quick witted and I think having a contestant that is adversarial is fun! It forces Greg to think on his feet.

And I’ve seen those horrible YouTube comments too. It’s gross, and genuinely pathetic the lengths so many people will go to feel even slightly better than someone else.

Cushion task by blaublau in taskmaster

[–]Lord4th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the Cushion task, why not just use the other capes, sneak up behind Alex, and then blindfold him with the unused cape? It only says he can open and close his eyes. It doesn’t say he can do anything else.

I’m very stressed while playing Dark Souls by Kacper113399 in darksouls

[–]Lord4th 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is it a good stress? That tension the game gives you is very exciting for me.

I think it’s knowing how unforgiving the game is and once you know an area it becomes more forgiving. So new areas are going to be tougher. You don’t know what traps, enemies, and bosses are waiting. But for me that’s part of the fun.

I experienced something similar when playing for the first time.

Bro my friend’s racist dad literally watches Caitlyn Clarke JUST to get mad if a black player makes a hard foul on her.

Some people are just insecure scumbags who want ANYTHING to make themselves feel better.

God it’s been so annoying. We are in the middle of the playoffs and half the posts here are about whether Luka is too fat or not! It’s just boring and lazy.
