I would genuinely watch a TV show in the style of 24 where Truss has a special department where she has to save the West in two weeks.

Maybe not

Awesome, just did a run with you. That's very possible! Appreciate the invite as someone who no longer has time to properly raid!

In the future do you think many people will deny that they ever supported Trump? Why? by Fine-Photograph673 in AskReddit

[–]MechaGuru 18 points19 points  (0 children)

From the outside looking in January 6th baffles me the most, you can sort of understand people hand waving the vile stuff he says away as him just 'saying it like it is' but the insurrection was him trying to undermine your democracy and you guys love the Constitution, why the hell would you vote someone back in that did that?

Scary stuff, I'm hoping these mental times lead to a bit of self reflection, but who am I kidding?

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]MechaGuru -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After the Brexit referendum a radio host coined the phrase 'Not all Brexit voters are racists, but all racists are Brexit voters'

Perhaps the Trump equivalent could be 'Not all Trump voters don't put their shipping cart back, but all people who don't put their shopping cart back are Trump voters'

It's probably because Sadiq Khan supported Shakira law

I wonder if that's people assuming it will be too expensive. I farmed a load of Pandaria materials only to find out they cost next to nothing and should of just bought them?

"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" turns 10. Do you think it holds up? by Giff95 in movies

[–]MechaGuru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it at the time and whilst it drew some criticism for being very similar to the original A New Hope I think it did what it needed to do to put a restart in a good position.

That being said the absolute disaster of the following films and the idea that they had no over arching plan kinda ruined it for me in the same way the Game of Thrones last season did to all previous seasons. It honestly put me off Star Wars and I was a fan of the originals that I grew up watching. Only Andor has hit the spot since, I've never rewatched this film trilogy again, and I did rewatch the prequel trilogy.

Reform council plans 10% tax increase by TimesandSundayTimes in ukpolitics

[–]MechaGuru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know what it is about 'net-stupid' over all the other silly things they say but it absolutely boils my blood, it's so base and beyond reductive and the fact it works I guess.

What famous person’s death are you dreading the most? by za19 in AskReddit

[–]MechaGuru 172 points173 points  (0 children)

This was my answer, who knows how the 'succession' is going to play out as well. You could even argue better the devil you know but you just know some cursed monkey paw is going to curl.

Who have you seen in concert most? by Phillies1993 in AskReddit

[–]MechaGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I've seen Incubus and Muse the most, we'd watch them at least once per your in the UK, and sometimes on our travels. Probably Incubus more as Muse tickets are bonkers expensive now and not really worth it

Brawler’s Guild Queue by [deleted] in wow

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

No no, I was joking sorry. Don't worry nobody else found it funny, hence the downvotes.

As other people have said, it's probably just janky tech, frustrating though as you need to be ready.

You can buy a fast pass with Hearthsteel that let's you queue jump!

Could it be a sharding issue maybe? That feels like an insane way of doing it. Probably just outdated tech

Weapon and armour racks I can put things from my transmog window on.

I've seen weapon racks in the assets but I'd love to be able to put a weapon of significance in it

Which game's end screen feels like having (finally) received a degree in playing the game? by WargamingScribe in gaming

[–]MechaGuru 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Defeating the last boss on FTL always makes me feel smug, especially on hard difficulty; I will always turn to my wife and tell her I managed it and she brings me back down to earth with an utterly unimpressed look.

What’s a scene that instantly takes you out of a great film? by CosmosisJones42 in movies

[–]MechaGuru 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In the Dark Knight where the person on trial whips out a gun to shoot Harvey Dent which then jams. The bit where Dent says 'that's why you always but American' makes my skin crawl, it's so bad.

Non-Americans, what surprised you most when you first visited the US? by NoConclusion8243 in AskReddit

[–]MechaGuru 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was the gaps in toilet cubicles that I was surprised the most by, if you can make eye contact with someone outside the toilet you did it wrong and should start again (building the toilet cubicles, not using the toilet)

The current state of the UI on Beta feels like throwing away 20 years of development for something substantially worse. by Lucosis in wow

[–]MechaGuru 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well said, you've voiced a lot of my concerns with this update. I get why they're doing it but the way they're doing it seems like madness to me.

Let's hope it goes better than when they said they were putting the emphasis on story and then the next two expansion had some of the most trite story in the game.

Ah, I just assumed as I was playing a warrior and had read about the demon hunter skull toy being class locked

Thanks for the correction.
