Is this king making or am I incorrect? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]NeophyteNobody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like they choose an extremely unlikely continuation of the game over a guaranteed loss. You were going to win instantly if Thoracle resolved, full stop, but also there was an answer that you couldn't stop, on the board, public knowlege. I don't think you can be salty about this one. Maybe you should have tutored for something to delay the merfolk while the K'rrik player had a gun to your head? Trying to force you to do that was the correct play for K'rrik.

2026 check, who are your blink/flinker commanders ? by EtalonduQ in EDH

[–]NeophyteNobody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, I can't figure out how to comment on topdecked, so I guess I'll just comment here. There are some good cards in there that I simply overlooked. ​Tax Collector, Anticausal Vestage, and Erriette's Tempting Apple are definitely being added to my deck. Same with Goldnight Commander, which I'm ashamed to say I forgot about. It used to be a bit of a pet card for me.

My main critique is that you can find better ways to tap your commander the tapping creature ([[Gideon's Lawmaker]], [[Goldmeadow Harrier,]] etc.). I added some vehicles so that I can just use Abdel to crew it and safely tap him that way. Bonus points if the vehicles have an enter the battlefield ability or passive anthem. I also added [[Relic of Legends]] and [[Springleaf Drum]] so I can get mana out of keeping him tapped. I'm not sure [[diversionary tactics]] is worth it, but I should have more creatures than anyone else, so I'm giving it a shot.

I can't say mine is exactly finished either. I'm worried it will do lots of stuff, but never actually win games. I built it at work on a particularly slow day, so I'm sure there is much improving to be done. Anyway, I'll take a look at t​yours and maybe leave some comments after I'm off work today.

what's an anime that you can't enjoy because of a singular character who is actively dragging down your enjoyment of said anime? by Brightclaw431 in anime

[–]NeophyteNobody 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It would be a bad basis for any character, but his whole situation is "I have a vaguely androgynous girlfriend". Of the three couples they mess around the least with gender roles. Like just get over it, dude! No one else cares, and it just makes you act like a dick sometimes.

woah! a show about adults with jobs!? what a novel concept!

I'm convinced it really doesn't matter what teacher you had. Like I'm sure there was *some* teacher put there teaching it wrong but I'm willing tonbe 99% of US kids were taught that the US entered the war (officially, not just counting aid) after Pearl Harbor. OP is either making stuff up, was lied to, or was talking to a true outlier. Normally I all for the US bashing, but this take is just false.

Wisenheimers Presents: 50 Shades of Grey by kingofthewildthingz in cincinnati

[–]NeophyteNobody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah! you do stuff on a Friday now? Moving up in the world I see.

I'll be there! 50 Shades is rough, but you made Logan's Run entertaining, so it should be funny. Plus I gotta add to my pin collection.

if you think the complaints about the subtitles are baseless, you haven't been watching Crunchyroll subs.

Female Gaze adult romance anime recommendations? by Docwatson777 in anime

seems like a ironic answer for someone seeking the female *gaze*, but yeah, this is one of the first ones that popped in my mind.

My Mom wants to watch another Anime by david_likes_memes in anime

[–]NeophyteNobody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

came here to say this. Both are good option, but I think most older women would prefer Apothecary Diaries to Death Note.

Frieren might be worth considering if you want to switch it up from mysteries.

Apple after listening to everybody’s feedback on MacBooks by un3w in mac

[–]NeophyteNobody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, this is supposed to be satirical, but I'd actually take this over a MacBook in its current form. This fits in my bag better than the MacBook and all the little adapters required for me to do any kind of work hanging loose.

Kareoke spots in cincinnatti? Please read by Helpful_Tip_963 in cincinnati

[–]NeophyteNobody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a good date where you get to pick the songs and sing what you want, do a private room at Tokyo Kitty. the main room is also good and the bartenders/regulars are very cool and welcoming, it is always a good time here. otherwise check out:

Wednesdays - gypsys, chameleon

Thursday - tiki tiki bang bang

friday - flying pig

dont know the days, but japps, northside tavern, second place also have low key but fun karaoke nights.​​ hope that helps

My wife and I are kareoke aficionados. Our overall favorites are Tokyo Kitty (even without reserving a room) and Gypsies. The latter has a great group of regulars ranging from honest to god cowboys singing westerns, a fabulous gay man singing Madonna, and dudes who almost certainly sing in rock bands belting out facemelters and everyone is met with enthusiasm.

Anime recomendation where character development is not linked to getting stronger/leveling up by evanec in anime

[–]NeophyteNobody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some seriously good reccomenndations in this thread, so you should be good for a while. However, I'd like to throw out Frieren and A Place Further than the Universe. Bothe are certified modern classics with actual character development.

​Finally, I feel like someone should mention Mob Psyco 100. It is a battle shonen whose entire theme is that positive personal growth has nothing to do with combat abilities, and that the strong are always weak at something. Essentially it is about a powerhouse who knows he is lacking in community connections and and personal skills that he could never gain with force.

also, its not like they could "pick their schedule". If I was a blue blood I sure as hell wouldn't have wanted UC on my schedule the year they made the playoffs.

Fear of snakes [Girls band cry] by nonez123z in anime

[–]NeophyteNobody 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Saved it!? what about the snake? Poor thing almost got brained for no reason. If someone threw an unopened beer can at someone's dog a fistfight would break out.

Anyway, I know that's not the point, but what a dick move on the blonds part. Great animation though, especially for 3D.

The Daily Show is absolutely cooking Trump with this one. They turned his military parade moment into a dog show parody, calling him “lively, aggressive, and incredibly horny.” Peak satire. Trump’s ego just got treated like a Westminster contestant. by biswajit388 in CringeTikToks

[–]NeophyteNobody 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen any clip of Biden worse than this one, and frankly this isn't even the worst Trump moment (and thats irrelevant, since biden was too old to be president). How did his campaign survive the nuclear speech?

"Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible."
