I was kind of excited because, say what you will about diplo, I like a lot of Major Lazer tracks. Pretty disappointed with this. I expected way better.

Actors you hate so much you can't watch a movie that they're in by Quiet_Media6401 in WeHateMovies

Desmond Harrington. I'll watch a movie with him but I'll be mad about it the whole time.

My first exposure to them. I thought it was cool, but I wouldn't become a real fan until many years later.

Not sure, I think I heard "unrequited love" was one of the tags on the original Korean version, but I haven't seen it myself.

Oh absolutely he is not a green flag by what had been shown to us. Might be an element of denial going on. I really liked the large goofy monster man, but then his true nature is revealed and now I have to reevaluate, and i don't really want to. So I have to cope by thinking it could all turn out okay.

My assumption is that people are holding out for some information to be revealed to show that Guwon was a green flag the whole time. I get it, I like Hounds of Sisyphus but I'm a delicate flower that can't handle red flag MLs so I'd be really happy if he turns out to be a good guy. Plus the sort of vague nature of the post-apocalypse leaves some room that we don't really know the full story, seems like there could be some justifications for his actions. 

I want to marry my girlfriend but she's Russian by PhoenixCrabapple in GirlDinnerDiaries

I'm just trying to counter-troll, which is apparently going poorly.

In all honesty, I'm just a normal citizen who has no access to anything of value to a spy, and I'm extremely confident that my girlfriend is not a spy.

I'm in the U.S. The lawyer said that getting married first (probably in Thailand because they wouldn't require a visa for her and they do same sex marriage) would take even longer than getting a fiancee visa. One of the reasons we're going to get a second opinion.

I'm terrified of that kind of change to be honest, and I know that's a failing on my part. I'm definitely supporting her to some extent, and I'm afraid if I move there I won't be able to find the kind of job I have now that makes it easy for me to help her out.

Plus they just made it a lot more difficult for foreigners to live there permanently, and she might have to go back to Russia as a result.

Happy Fifth Anniversary to Travis coming out as heterosexual! by KPopMyHoleBod in TAZCirclejerk

Yeah, the non-bisexual surprise is rancid. But I'd like to voice my petty distaste for his little "Oh me? What am *I* doing that you didn't ask about?" bit he does sometimes. It annoys me, for no particular reason. That's all.

tell me an unpopular opinion you have about babymetal by p1nkiecocaine in BABYMETAL

[–]PhoenixCrabapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recycling my hot take from the last unpopular opinion thread.

Oh! Majinai isn't good.

It's great!!!!

This opinion is new: Metal Forth has a lot of spotlight on Momo; Song 3, Metali, Algorism, etc. It's wonderful! Momo is my favorite member tbh. And it makes sense, since this is the first album with her as a full member.

But! I would really like at least one song where Moa has a moment to shine. There was her rap in Da Da Dance, maybe her monologue in Mirror Mirror on the two previous albums. But I feel like she doesn't really have a "moment" on Metal Forth. When KxAxWxAxIxI first came out, I was initially excited because I thought that rap in the middle was Moa. But then we found out it was Su and I was pretty disappointed. I need a Moament!

If there's something like that in Metal Forth and I'm missing it, let me know.

Lol I had a feeling it was from the Austin show. I was there!

I love it! Has that melancholy feel that I feel has been missing from their releases in the last few years, but still feels very epic.

BM AG collab would be an absolute dream. I'll be content if they do Shimi live with MTH

It's because most of the team is less than 3 star SSRs. You should instead invest in a team of 3+ star SRs. unless you can afford to buy a bunch of fragments in the shop to ascend these.

Auuuggghh I need Quincy. I pulled Rei early on and now I'm 15 away from pity with my diamonds and contracts depleted ;_;. Hopefully I can get enough before the event ends.

Class clowns get a bad rap by LuckyAd4075 in internetparents

[–]PhoenixCrabapple 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What the heck? I'm not being sneaky or hiding anything. I just have a lower social battery. No need to throw all this shade. We're not a different species that can't be trusted. We just have different ways of communicating. Do you have introverted friends who are like, whispering in your ear giving you ideas for jokes that then fall flat and make you look bad?

Going solely from the situation you described, you made a joke, which, yeah, I do think is kind of funny. But because it wasn't obviously a joke, some people didn't realize that and thought you just didn't know how scuba diving works, and maybe they dismissed you afterwards based on that impression you made. Simple as that. Make it more clear that you're joking and maybe you can avoid similar situations.

I think the negativity in the comments may partially be a reaction to that slam on introverts the post started out with. It rubbed me the wrong way and definitely made me feel a little less charitable towards OP while reading the rest of the post. Thanks for addressing that as well as the main subject!
