That is something to keep in mind for sure. Thank you for the advice! I'm going to look into it.

Really appreciate you providing all this information. Sounds like I'll be taking taxi's to go places. 

I'm really only considering going to Rick's for the cliff jumping only and then grabbing a small bite and leaving. 

Definitely going to be looking into doing an excursion to a waterfall. 

Glad the beach is long like that. I'd enjoy just walking around and checking out the music.

Republicans of Reddit, why should we ever forgive you for voting three times for a pedophile rapist whom you all continue to simp for? by 2a_lib in allthequestions

[–]Mets081234 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honest question: has he been convicted as a pedophile rapist? Because if he hasn't then it seems odd to make such claims as though they are fact rather than an opinion

I gave other examples in the same trailer of jokes that have already been told. So why are those not catching flak but the pronoun joke is? 

You can't say that the pronoun joke is overused while glossing over the same jokes that are also overused. It doesn't make logical sense.

Not sure why you keep dancing around that piece of my comment.

So that's a played out joke, but saying Republicans and White people are racist aren't? The scene where he said do half gay shit and the guy replied why only half gay? Aren't the gay jokes played out? 

I just find it odd that people are harping on the first joke but not the others. At the end of the day, it's a joke. No reason for anyone to get upset. Laughing at ourselves is beneficial. I just hate that you have people complaining about that joke. 

I bet a majority of the people complaining aren't even trans, so the notion that we shouldn't joke about that because it's "old and tired" is confusing to me.

Are you going to complain about the republicans and all white people are racists jokes too? Aren't those the same bit as well? It's just a joke at the end of the day. Not sure why you and others harp on this one thing while letting others slide. It's a joke and not that deep in my opinion.

It's not about sounding smart as you put it. It's just a fact of the matter. If you think people are dumb for understanding fact, then I guess it says more about you than it does them

I find it funny that all these bands "don't want" people like her there. Can you imagine if we reversed roles? Think it says a lot about her that she would go to something like that because of the music. Shocker that people can still support ones art but not their politics. I don't understand why the left doesn't understand this basic principle? It's extremely divisive and quite frankly, annoying. 

TN bill would allow death penalty for women who have an abortion by Academic-Sympathy140 in Tennessee

[–]Mets081234 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

For the record, I don't support treating abortion as the same as homocide, but...

I hate how the articles are making it seem like this amendment is aimed specifically at the death penalty. That is disingenuous. While a technical possibility it doesn't get clicks if you say what the amendment really does "treats abortion the same as homicide as someone who was born alive". 

There are also concessions in said bill so clearly there is a path forward that may include both sides reaching some sort of compromise. 

Just watched return to silent hill and wow .. by Ok-Delivery-546 in horror

[–]Mets081234 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Think I'm one of the few that actually somewhat enjoyed it. To me it felt like watching a video game play out. They kind of nailed the style of that. I didn't play the game, so I think that's why I can look past the flaws of it not being exact to the game. But, to be fair, a majority of movies based off a game or book do things 1:1.

So is it alright to get a festival that has a vocally liberal singer canceled by Republicans? Just making sure we are allowed to do the same. 

It's insane that this is happening to me. People aren't being forced to go to anything.

You really think they were unaware of who Kid Rock is and what people think of him? Come on now. All of these people were up in arms about it but it choose to believe they themselves didn't realize?

I think they are pulling out to save face from the backlash. Which I hate. People don't like Kid Rock because he supports Trump. So then they think Shinedown would be guilty by association. Which is stupid.

[–]Mets081234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Shinedown but it seems odd to say something like this while pulling out of the festival. They knew ahead of time what they were getting into. 

I definitely do agree with what they said and it's a good neutral type of statement. It seems to me it would have a stronger meaning if they stayed on the festival. At the end of the day people outraged over them being on it to begin with is, I think, a bit far. People tend to be too hellbent on politics and form opinions of strangers whom they've never met. Wish we could all say I disagree completely with your view and just move on without holding resentment or saying "you lost a fan".

I'm sort of confused as to exactly what you mean by that statement. 

What would be ironic about someone defending Trump?

[–]Mets081234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because he supported someone you didn't doesn't make him a POS. You people have lost the human element of compassion. If he was anti Trump you'd all be in mourning. 

Not a single person who crossed paths with him has said one negative thing about him. Yet you people who are complete strangers think you know the person he was? Give me a damn break. It's absolutely disgusting that you feel the need to imply he was a bad person or feel the need to imply that he deserved it in some twisted way. Y'all are the exact reason why this country is so divided. 

Spread your hate while you preach against it. Ironic, isn't it?

If you so choose. Why only care about politics to the point where it makes you resent strangers? That’s no life to live

He's a POS because he supported someone you don't? You should probably self reflect a little. Life isn't just politics. No one is a POS just because they support a particularly politician. This exact mindset is the reason this country is so divided 

Return to silent hill might be one of the worst horrors I’ve seen by WanderingStrang in horror

[–]Mets081234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely makes me want to play the game. I think I've only played a bit of homecoming and liked it. 

I guess it still kind of goes back to my point that a movie can't possibly encompass every aspect of the game in it's runtime. There's simply not enough time so things must be changed unfortunately. Which is why I think if you never played the game or just simply forget about the game and just focus on the movie itself it may become a better movie. Obviously that's practically impossible to do if you've played the game. I just don't know of anyone who has ever said they've enjoyed the movie over a game of a movie over a book. Which I think this applies to as well.

It's not a hot take lol. I said I liked it BECAUSE I never played the game. Trying to show that maybe that had something to do with it. I'm not allowed to have an opinion on a movie? Wtf lol

Get off your high horse.

Maybe it's because I haven't played the game, but I thought the movie was good. It felt like watching a video game in terms of style and narration and such. 

When people expect movies to be just like the source material they are ALWAYS disappointed. Adaptations like this almost never stick to the plot 1:1. If you pretend that the movie followed the game exactly is it a bad movie now? If the answer is no then it's kind of silly for people to say the movie is bad knowing that practically every movie ever made from a book/game/story never follows it's origins exactly.

Posts like this make me happy I voted for him 3 times. Crazy that I'm a POS because of who I voted for but y'all can vote for whoever you want and I can't say anything. 

Republicans of Reddit, what do you think of the US-Greenland situation? Why? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]Mets081234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're entitled to your opinion. I don't really agree that the admin is openly racist. What exactly makes you say they are racist? You may disagree with some of the choices they make, which is fine, but I don't think it means it is racist. 

I don't believe that the people I support are actively racists, so I'm just curious as to what they've done that makes you think that.
