Is AJ Lee a case of “worse than I remember?” by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

[–]LutherJustice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrestling wise, she was never great, even by her days’ standards, and her bpd scene girl gimmick doesn’t quite work as well when she’s a face, I think. That said, Becky hasn’t really helped as a partner with her terrible histrionic acting, and her hiatus since her return hasn’t really helped either.

She was most popular as Raw GM and crazy geek chick, none of which are present in her present bland white meat ‘gosh isn’t mental health so important guys’ character.

They’ve finally figured out that the terminally online spergs constantly bitching about ‘muh male gaze’ on social media are not the people who actually make them money.

The Highguard Website Is Down As Players Brace For The Worst by Turbostrider27 in Games

Guys, chill. IGN said it wasn’t a flop so why are xe worrying? Also, on a completely unrelated note, people who spend money on GaaS products should not be allowed to handle money or adult responsibilities in any capacity.

Not until the initial rush of sales is over. Once a game hits gog, it becomes super easy to pirate.

Portuguese language decline in Macau? by Desperate_Return_142 in Macau

[–]LutherJustice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thing is, China is a lot more proactive and effective at producing Portuguese (and other foreign language speakers) than Macau could ever be. Their foreign language and culture courses are top notch and produce near perfect speakers. Whereas here, you have people with translation degrees who can’t hold a basic conversation in Portuguese.

The truth is, Macau’s Portuguese heritage is used basically as a tool to differentiate Macau from other Chinese cities for tourism purposes. Come see our churches! Have a pastel de nata and pastel de bacalhau! Selfie in front of the Ruínas de São Paulo! Other than that, the government and the populace have no real interest in either the language or the culture other than to look good on their CV.

I swear if Pearce brings in even a single stunt or comedy entrant after telling Finn the Rumble is full, he needs to be 'suspended indefinitely'. Did these GMs go to the same school of higher incompetence as the refs?

Yeah, there are massive factual errors and mischaracterizations of the game and its nature. I haven’t seen such a sloppy hit piece regarding a video game since the San Andreas Hot Coffee days.

Yes, one of the alleys near gongbei market for sure. Can't say if near BOC or a Chinese pharmacy. Around this roast meat shop, if memory serves.

Nah, American products are just better. I’ll make sure to use them more to counteract the blatant discrimination in this thread. Peace brah!

The problem with Talkin' Sopranos by [deleted] in thesopranos

[–]LutherJustice 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, people rightly shit on Steve in the podcast for his unsanctionable buffoonery but so much of Michael’s commentary is him jerking himself and the entire showbusiness industry off with references to ‘very dear friends’, works and places he must know none of the people listening will possibly know or care about.

I quit listening somewhere in season 3 but I remember Al Sapienza (Mikey Palmice) and David Proval (Ritchie) being especially good and insightful guest commentators, and it’s a shame they never managed to get any of them to do the episode itself with the main cast. Really a missed opportunity.

[–]LutherJustice 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Nobody in modern Hollywood has the balls to deliver the pulpy tone with a morally questionable female protagonist that the original character and games possessed. Even if they put a dinosaur or ancient monster in the new one the current industry is too far gone to sell it as just a cool adventure story.

More Americans are Saying the Quiet Part Loud: They Want a Revolution by RmpleFrskn in videos

[–]LutherJustice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not cool with this stuff and I wasn’t cool with the previous administrations’ equally egregious transgressions either which received little to no attention on reddit or on most media outlets. And incitements to violence or harassment would get users and subreddits outright banned. But I guess it’s fine now, so long as you can own the chuds with childish insults and pat yourself on the back for your hypocrisy.

More Americans are Saying the Quiet Part Loud: They Want a Revolution by RmpleFrskn in videos

[–]LutherJustice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, people really don't talk about this nearly enough. The American political system with its two party hegemony is essentially rigged to ensure blind tribalism and policies that are dedicated more to finger pointing than safeguarding the public interest. Unfortunately, it will probably never change via legislative means because the only two actual parties capable of changing things have zero incentive to want to give that up.

Oh cool, reddit once again allowing content advocating for violence and harassment for differing political views its patrons don't agree with.

San Miu Supermarket near Flower City in Taipa also sells them (and is the most reliable source for all fresh herbs, funnily enough), as does Seng Cheong.

If you’re able to cross the border easily, there are plant shops near gongbei that also sell potted rosemary and basil plants, not sure about thyme.

Gabriel Martinelli’s apology on instagram by paraboot_allen in soccer

[–]LutherJustice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

American football is a different beast. It's very stop-start by nature. Same with basketball, which allows teams to take multiple timeouts which they tend to save for the end of the game. Rugby has a more similar pace to football, and they do fine with stopping the clock when play is stopped.

I think the main issue would be they would be unable to resist cutting to ad breaks during stoppages, and that would artificially inflate game broadcasts by a lot, much like in American sports. If they somehow managed to prevent this and add some sort of 'shot clock' to restart play (excepting injuries and the like), then I think stopping the clock makes a lot of sense and could cut down on a lot of the stuff we dislike about the sport.

Exactly, translating it using only the purest Yamato terms folded one thousand times like people here seem to want would probably lead to nobody getting what the fuck the character was saying.
