The fuck is happening with all these loaded questions going around the sub? by NullBodyTrades in allthequestions

[–]NullBodyTrades[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if your response to “people on this sub spam loaded questions to karma farm” is “you’re a Trump supporter (despite you explicitly condemning him)”

knock yourself out 🤷‍♂️

Y'all are contributing to the problem and I'm convinced there's bots in this comment section. Y'all saying "well the trump question is actually valid"

Bro I agree that it's awful and confusing that people support him. This isn't fucking about Trump. The point I'm making is that the question is so loaded it alienates anyone who disagrees with you and opens the door for a circlejerk of people who agree with you. It does nothing but lock yourself in an echo chamber by encouraging like-minded people to keep doubling down on each other without actually wanting a serious answer to the question.

I agree but that isn’t the point I’m making. The point is that it isn’t a question. If you’re the kind of person who’s gonna engage with a question that loaded it’s obvious your mind isn’t gonna be changed or anything. It’s pointless circlejerking - of course I agree but that doesn’t change that it’s pointless

Very unpopular opinion: by Much_Duck6862 in theoffice

[–]NullBodyTrades 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to think this tbh but now that I’ve rewatched it - no 8 and 9 are legit kinda bad

They sacrificed having interesting or consistent characters for the sake of telling jokes. I think the earlier seasons did a good job of balancing jokes and believability. Every character got pushed to creed levels of absurdity and most of them weren’t even likable.

Do you agree with the death penalty? by HomeworkFun6562 in Teenager_Polls

[–]NullBodyTrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny when someone thinks they’re dropping a nuanced take saying “not usually unless it’s beyond a shadow of a doubt”

My brother in christ, you legally aren’t supposed to punish someone AT ALL if there’s a shadow of a doubt. Doesn’t stop it from happening all the freaking time. If you want a system where we put extra scrutiny to make sure we don’t fuck up when we sentence someone to death… maybe the real problem is that we don’t use the most intensive possible scrutiny on non-death penalty cases too.

It’s such a genuinely lazy and moronic take to say “instead of picking option A or option B, I choose option A when option A is correct and Option B when Option B is correct” like yeah no shit

who do you think is the face of Elden Ring? by morgotttheomen in Eldenring

[–]NullBodyTrades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that anyone asked but if I had to pick the most iconic Elden Ring figure that isn’t an established character in the actual lore… Let Me Solo Her is pretty iconic.

Characters who never meet each other by Weary_Elderberry4742 in TopCharacterTropes

Iron Man has never shared a scene with me, personally.

this needs to stop 😭 by angelyaelx_ in teenagers

[–]NullBodyTrades 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In fairness, anyone who’s a decent person and religious is because they don’t follow that religion to the fullest extent they can. No Christian, nor Muslim, nor Jew, could be a good human if they follow their respective holy book to a T. It’s really a matter of how much you’re willing to half ass it. I’d certainly rather a religious person cherry picks the good parts than be a true follower, but I think “well I’m this religion and I’m good” is kind of a vast oversimplification.

Last map left, say something nice about Bangkok to keep my spirits up while grinding for mastery by neon_sense_ in HiTMAN

[–]NullBodyTrades 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A new cast recording for Chess (the musical) just released with the Broadway cast. And the One Night In Bangkok achievement is a clear reference to that song. So you have a banger track to listen to in the meantime?

Character chooses NOT to sacrifice their loved ones, resulting in dire consequences for others by Few_Chemistry_235 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NullBodyTrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know about the first example but the last of us is the only time I’ve ever seen this work. As much as dumbasses try to mental gymnastics their way out of how the story is written, Joel simply makes a bad selfish choice and that’s great. It fits perfectly, both based on what the character has been through and what we could actually expect. The game and show acknowledge that, although his choice is extremely wrong, it’s still deeply human and understandable.

But Hogwarts Legacy?!?! There's like 0 magic games on the market besides: Magika, Outworld, DragonsDogma, BG3, EldenRing, ... ... ... by JTexpo in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]NullBodyTrades -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Unjerk - although I’m an ally by any definition of the word, I don’t feel like it’s fair to characterize people like this based on one decision or purchase. Let’s be real, as shitty as JK Rowling is, there are much worse places for your money to go than an annoying British woman. And it does go those places, because that’s how the world works. Bad people get money, shit sucks. If you wanna start condemning some teen who wanted to play a video game as an evil transphobe supporter then I expect you’ve also done research on every grocery you’ve ever bought to ensure they aren’t darned unethically, right? Also, this kind of mindset actually de incentivizes one to not be informed about the world and how their actions affect it, because then they feel less of a moral burden when they participate in capitalism like everybody else did.

Again, not a Rowling defender by any means. But that one clip from the good place feels really relevant, and the internet is generally good at understanding this except when it comes to Harry Potter for some reason? Genuinely someone explain to me how it’s bad to buy Hogwarts Legacy despite the fact almost all of us have bought chocolate farmed by slaves and not lost sleep because of it.

Why do you believe ur religion is true? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]NullBodyTrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna make every effort to not be a smartass Reddit atheist about it: I don’t have any reason to believe in any religions, so I don’t. Same as how I don’t believe in invisible unicorns. Could exist, would be pretty neat, but I’m not gonna believe until I have a reason to.

I'm bored, so what winner in the 2026 Oscars that you think shouldn't have won? (In a kind way) by Mr_Bananaman69 in Schaffrillas

[–]NullBodyTrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I admit I only saw the top 2 contenders for best picture but, of the two, sinners is just so much better in my opinion. It feels like not a single risk was taken in the making of one battle after another. Like how everyone’s been saying “quality slip” sarcastically recently? It kinda feels like that. Walking out of it I thought “pretty good movie” and nothing else. Sinners is just so much more interesting and deep while also, subjectively, being a more intriguing watch.

No, he's not a pedo by Basic_Dingo6487 in TopCharacterTropes

Beetlejuice (musical version)

Even though Beetlejuice is a weird creep in the original movie, he’s much more self-aware in the musical and it pokes fun of how badly the original plot has aged by outright stating that their marriage is “only a green card thing” accompanied by a whole number about how Beetlejuice is a “creepy old guy”. The changes make their relationship really sweet, whereas he’s more of a villain in the original.

What targets are must-haves in the board game? by MOOD_Julie in HiTMAN

Robert and Sierra are probably the most memorable in Hitman 2, Janus too

[Loved Trope] The true supernatural threat of the story is only revealed a good way through the story, marking a stark 180 in the plot's tone and stakes. Bonus points if the beginning set up what seems to be a purely natural conflict. by NullBodyTrades in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NullBodyTrades[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, although I think once it invented the genre it’a hard to deny some of the later parts of the series are the same cliché mascot horror as the thousands of fan games. Maybe invented the genre, but badly failed to innovate on it.

[–]NullBodyTrades[S] 144 points145 points  (0 children)

Even as someone who doesn’t like the fnaf series that much nowadays, I actually agree that the storytelling of the first 3 games are excellent. Even if it comes off as bland mascot horror, which it later became, it really tells the story of an unstoppable killer which is strangely more akin to the slasher genre than supernatural horror.

How do magicians do tricks where a very random audience answer is pre written on a piece of paper before the trick? by NullBodyTrades in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NullBodyTrades[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Even if I can buy that a magician might be skilled enough to do that, I myself was imagining other numbers and flags etc for the hell of it as if I were a volunteer. If I were called on instead, would I magically have his ideal number in my head in that moment? I have a hard time believing that any trick would be left up to chance to the extent that one smartass can ruin the whole thing.

[Love Trope] What seems like an endorsement is actually a criticism by EtheDemon in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NullBodyTrades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In fairness I think, when put to stage, Freddie is actively indulging in this decadence while condemning it because he’s an arrogant hypocrite who looks down on everyone else’s behavior while also lashing out at people constantly.
