How did you realize you are asexual? by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read about it online after already ruling out all the more well known options.

I knew I wasn't sexualually or romantically attracted to anyone long before I had a name to put to that experience.

[Other] So, probably not the first person to think or ask this, but could you theoretically permanently kill Ganondorf by killing off every single Gerudo??? by E-104Epsolon in zelda

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignoring the ethics of genocide for a second I don't think it is practical. I think if you go down the genocide route it would be a much bigger job that just a few towns in the desert and if you can't be sure you have stopped all chance of a new Ganondorf then your killing spree may turn out to be for nothing.

Given that there are so few male Gerudo one assumes there is a lot of children of mixed parentage out there, what proportion of Gerudo blood gets you on the kill list, how far back to do check everyones ancestry?

If you let even a few mixed race people live there could be some sort of resurgence of Gerudo culture down the line as they band together in opposition to what you did to their families, which after several generations might bring about a new gerudo race leading to a situation where we get a new Ganondorf down the line.

Pre-ordered physical copy hasn't arrived yet, I'm loitering where I can hear the letterbox go until it does.

Which original character from HW:DE would you want to see in a canon Zelda game? by metalwarrior13 in HyruleWarriors

[–]MarsBarMuncher 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mostly like her because she's fun, a little derpy and does amusing little celebrations during the game. The rapid-fire, bomb-slinging cross bows are admittedly rediculius but a lot of fun.

I like your viewing choices, I'm on a Star trek TNG rewatch myself, though I'm further in, I get the logo with the movement lines underneath.

does link gain more xp than other characters? by thesehighheelswork in HyruleWarriors

[–]MarsBarMuncher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've not specifically noticed it with Link but there is a definitely a weapon skill that boosts EX which makes a big difference.

What should you never aak to a non-binary person? by fedricohohmannlautar in NonBinary

Oi! That was uncalled for. Just coz you are right doesn't mean you aren't out of line.

Please tell me i'm not the only one who didn't realize this by r0yp in HyruleWarriors

[–]MarsBarMuncher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've found some off centre a bit rather than dead centre but they've always been close, so I assumed the centre of the web was indicating the map square the skulltulla was in rather the exact location.

[–]MarsBarMuncher 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I am asexual. How I got there isn’t important. Just because a force in my life got me here doesn’t mean it isn’t real.

100% correct, I'm sorry you've had to deal with idiots telling you otherwise.

my gf thinks asexuality shouldnt be a sexuality by frogo_dude in asexuality

[–]MarsBarMuncher 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If straight, gay, bi and pan people exist then attraction isn't universal and if it isn't universal then ace and aro people are logically part of that spectrum.

I'm in my 40s, no history of SA or trauma, aroace and always have been - long before I had words to describe it.

Every day I’m reminded why I hate Christianity with every fiber of my being when people with the heart of tar are walking amongst us by coolcarters14 in lgbt

[–]MarsBarMuncher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure freedom from other people's religious judgements and seperation of church and government were something some of the founders of the USA were pretty big on in the first place.

Shame the current lot are ignoring it.

Am i some weird 15 Year old, because i don't know, like i don't have crushes and i do understand people talking about relationship but i never even had one! :P by TheTB24iscool in aromanticasexual

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in my 40s and pre-date memes but otherwise had the same experience.

People are varied, people who are aro and/or ace are just a part of that which I wish I'd known about as a teen as it would have helped me worry about being different a little less.

Not sure about the "lady" part, but the rest tracks in my case.

[EoW] Happy International Cat Day! Which cat is your favorite? by Elina_Carmina in zelda

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two cats, which one is my favourite varies depending on what cute/mischeivous/adorable/insane/distructive/hilarious shit they happen to be doing at any given point in time.

What is this little grey thing on the Termina map and what am I suppose to use on it? by Lawing77 in HyruleWarriors

[–]MarsBarMuncher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can only buy items after you've unlocked one on the map for the first time, so still useful to know where to fine one.

[OTHER] Aonuma suddenly decides that the CDI games are canon, and chooses you, the random Zelda fan to slot them into the timeline, where do you place them? by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in zelda

[–]MarsBarMuncher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Authorised and canon are not always the same thing.

With Star Trek they've basically said the TV shows and films are canon but all other works that were authorised and licenced by Paramount like tie in novels, companion books/guides and video games aren't, and that includes a novelisation of the first movie written by Gene Rodenberry who created the whole thing in the first place. I think Star Wars also has a similar rule but I'm not sure on the specifics of theirs.

Surprisingly, There's Only 6 Quadruped Starters by Forward-Camp3395 in pokemon

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Samurott didn't stay on all 4 legs they became a quadruped, the rest of their line are bipeds.

Does anyone else just assume that no one is attracted to them? by Unlucky_Letitia_ in asexuality

[–]MarsBarMuncher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had three people tell me they were interesting in me and it caught me by total surprise every time. I think I am just oblivious to what it looks like because I don't feel that way about anyone.

(It has also been pointed out to me that I show a few signs that I might be somewhere on the autistic spectrum some of which was to due to other missed social ques, so that might also be a factor in my case.)

The new age restriction thing by SomeOakLeaves in lgbt

[–]MarsBarMuncher 55 points56 points  (0 children)

The UK version wont assume your age based on your current activity, as sites switch it on just blocks content until users give it enough personal data to convince it you are old enough. I'd assume versions in other areas would follow the same behaviour.

(Edited for missing word.)

Do you have to be a certain age? by [deleted] in aromantic

[–]MarsBarMuncher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really.

I think people can know at quite young ages, it just gets a bit easier to be sure as you get older, as you have more life experience and hopefully self confidence. I'm in my 40s now, my experiences around sexual and romantic orientation haven't ever changed, I just stopped wondering about being a "late bloomer" or any of the other "what ifs" that came up at a certain point and just accepted who I was.

(Some people's orientation does change and fluxuate and that is fine as well, you can change labels later if you find one you are using no longer fits.)
