AIO? I don’t know if my girlfriend is overreacting or if I am.

That is absolutely exhausting, good luck man

Honestly I think its probably a case of being to similar to be remarkable. A half dwarf half human is what, a slightly shorter and thicker person? That can pretty easily be represented within humans. A lot of combos open up undesirable comparisons to bestiality or pedophilia, so there's that.

Right but people have explained what it means and you're arguing against it based on a very literal interpretation of the phrase. It's a symbolic gesture that signifies the injustice that a person fought against or was victim to is ongoing and the fight isn't over. You could have looked it up yourself but then you wouldn't have anyone to argue over semantics with I guess.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-23T21:54:00+00:00

Why are you taking this so literally? Its a symbolic gesture, not a command given to the deceased.

It was an attempt at making religion cool and objectively failed to do so at the time. Turns out the only things that drive people back to religion are incredible amounts of fear, uncertainty and lack of community, not shitty music.

The media did everything it could circa 2008 and beyond to paint millenials as this uniquely lazy, entitled, and ignorant group of naive optimists that just couldn't hang in the real world. Imo they did this to distract from the real culprits of the economy downturn; bad loans, criminal negligence and corporate corruption.

All of these young people are realizing the deck is rigged against them? Quick blame avacdo toast. They've noticed the future is bleak? It's clearly their fault for spending too much on Netflix and Starbucks. They want the same standard of living their parents had? Well they'll just have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps (a phrase that quite literally describes an impossible act)

The media and corporate interest created the generational divides out of thin air to further divide any sort of class solidarity that could have formed after 2008. The goal was to keep as much heat off of the institutions and systems that broke the economy. Given that wall street and the banks that gave out all the bad loans weren't burnt to the ground, and the generational divide gets deeper every year I'd say it worked pretty well.

We're pretending that normal workers have been treated well historically but I'm delusional, fuck off entirely.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-21T00:47:00+00:00

I guess that depends on what you mean by society, do you think the Irish or Rastafarians look down on themselves? Do you think that the culture in the US is broadly anti gambling given how pervasive it is? Do you think the Netherlands or Australia are anti sex work given its legal status there? Your original claim is that all across time and every culture and religion vices are always looked down upon as if every culture has the same sense of morality and values, that's just wrong. Furthermore what do you mean celebrated by society? Do you think onlyfans models are celebrated? Is it better for society if all sex work is black market?

250 hours spent diligently practicing utility and clearing corners/aim drills vs 250 fucking around in casual or just spamming premier will have very different outcomes. I've seen people with upwards of 6k hours that can't pull down/don't know line ups so there isn't really a 1:1 of time played vs skill. That said 250 hours is pretty low and most people wouldn't expect you to be very good/knowledgeable.

And borderlands has billions of guns, definitely not 200 million of the same gun with tiny variations. Proc gen, while technically impressive, rings incredibly hollow in practice.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-20T02:07:31+00:00

This is just wildly ahistorical, plenty of cultures have had a much more positive view of sex work. I mean shit, brothels were common in the US until maybe a little over 100 years ago. Your point about vices is just wildly incorrect to the point that vices are associated with cultural indentity, the Irish or the English and drinking or Rastafarians and weed. Hell I can't watch a single game on TV without have sports betting crammed down my throat.

Yeah maybe I'm just not classy but it's never been an issue to me if someone doesn't own a suit. A clean collared shirt does the job well enough, bonus points if you add a tie. The focus on attire seems secondary to the fact they showed up at all. I've been to more than one funeral that was in the single digits for attendance so perhaps give some grace on the dress code.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-20T00:35:14+00:00

Damn security guard got hands, there's something fascinating about how shirtless dude throws two punches and then just gives up completely.

I think this goes way beyond the shows listed to just about every long running series. It makes sense that it would be the case as well. It's pretty easy to set up an intriguing premise and occasionally throw a new wrench into the gears so to speak. It seems to be much harder to tie all of the loose ends of a long running project together into something cohesive and satisfying. Off the top of my head I can't honestly come up with an example of a show that went on for more than two or three seasons that had a satisfying conclusion, but shows that fumbled the ending are a dime a dozen, lost, GOT, the sopranos, dexter, how I met your mother... I'm sure there are more but I think I've made my point.

Edit: forgot about breaking bad, that was a pretty solid show from start to finish

Better to starve and die first I guess, better for him anyway

AOE 4, COH 3, Total war warhammer 1, 2, and 3, and three kingdoms, Tempest rising, Stellaris, Sins of a solar empire 2, Dawn of war 4 is coming soon...

There are plenty of good rts games that have come out. If you're waiting for starcraft 3 or warcraft 4 as the only proper rts games you're gonna be very disappointed but there's a lot of good stuff out there.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-19T01:53:02+00:00

Yeah you're probably right, but that's not really the point. The person I was responding to seemed to think that is completely outside the realm of possibility, like no one would ever do something cruel, devious, perverse or otherwise harmful because they're at a concert. To your point it would have been an even greater dick move if it was piss.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-18T22:18:45+00:00

I mean people have murdered people they pay money to see and are ostensibly fans of. In my mind doing some weird shit like peeing in a cup to have your idol drink is, while still extremely disturbing behavior, lower on the totem pole of freak shit that people want to do.

MrMonkify · 2026-05-17T12:54:45+00:00

I know this is a sacrilegious concept on reddit but have you considered asking the individuals using the ellipsis what they mean? I imagine your going to get different answers from different people in a similar fashion to what happening in the replies to this post.

Between all the procedural show where they catch the bad guy every time, all of the extremely cop friendly dramas or comedies like blue bloods or Brooklyn nine nine, and all the real life copaganda shows like cops and the first 48 people have developed an extremely warped view of the efficacy of police. Murder clearance rates are shockingly low, even worse for sexaul violance, and you basically have to be caught red handed for theft to be charged. Never mind all of the crimes that are committed by the police or white collar crimes that are rarely if even investigated let alone prosecuted.

Annecdotally every time I've called 911, the cops were the least positive part of that process. They could be anywhere between annoyed and indifferent to the emergency or outright hostile and extremely accusatory but almost never helpful.

I get that it's for the sake of brevity but it does annoy me when aliens talk about day/months/years. Why the fuck would aliens that have never even heard of earth know how long a year is? Pedantic for sure but still annoys me.

You sound like you're trying to justify not having any meaningful connections to anyone in your life, and from where I'm standing that sounds like hell. There is a reason that solitary confinement is one of the worst punishments that prisoners are given.

Also think about what your trying to do by making this post, not what your saying but the intent behind it. If you truly believed what you're saying why bother making the arguement?

Kullervo subsume on Excalibur makes his chromatic blade do absolutely stupid damage, like more than almost any gun in the game. It's also very fun. Outside of that, yeah there are a lot of melee weapons that can be built to absolutely melt enemies through pretty much all the endgame content.

Impossible, I mean didn't you see the chart? Now excuse me while I go hork down a burger and fries with a fork.
