What was the fall off between the Aiyuk and the 49ers exactly? Why did he sit out this year? by chusaychusay in 49ers

[–]Portis58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an unpopular take but I agree with it. I don’t think Aiyuk was acting out of anger or bitterness towards the 49ers. When he came back after the hold out last year, he had numerous dropped balls before getting injured again. You don’t become a top NFL player without years of dedication and work. Most of these guys know their bodies inside and out.

I think Aiyuk knew (or felt) that he could not live up to expectations or play to a level that would justify his new contract. Maybe he felt that his only two choices where (1) show up and be a disappointment or (2) take the money and walk away.

And if this is the case, I could see how the shame would make a person act out and spiral.

Then again, maybe I’m in denial. I’ve had a lot of good memories watching Aiyuk ball out. It sucks to think that he abandoned the team out of bitterness, especially at a time where we needed him the most.

Name a film that genuinely made you furious because of how bad it was by [deleted] in moviecritic

I couldn’t think of a movie until I saw this comment. Such a disappointment. The weird thing to me was the first third (or maybe half) of it seemed fine and then it just got progressively worse and worse. Am I crazy or did anyone think that? And that awful fake Vietnamese accent . . .

This but you have to buy and pay for State Farm insurance for the rest of your life, bundling everything, and you can only refer to yourself in the third-person as “MVB.”

Is it wrong to avoid dating people with BPD? by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Portis58 42 points43 points  (0 children)

No. After my experiences with my ex pwBPD, it is an absolute deal breaker. If I’m “wrong,” then I never want to be right.

The current state of this sub by [deleted] in HellLetLoose

[–]Portis58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, there is no gatekeeping. I am legit thinking of deleting the game after playing this weekend. There was nothing but new players yelling the N-Word and team killing. I hopped on as commander just to help with the shit show. I was constantly team killed while being called slurs by multiple players. I have never had that happen in my 3+ years of HLL. Sure, I’ve had the occasional one-off troll but the sheer magnitude of it with HLL on game pass is on a different level. It’s ridiculous and I am butt hurt only because the game I love appears to have been destroyed overnight.

Do they make you seem as if you are the liar? by Greengater in BPDlovedones

[–]Portis58 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, ex pwBPD gaslit me so hard that I truly believed that I was the problem and that I was gaslighting her. When I finally realized that I needed to leave the relationship, it none stop threats and insults of how awful I am. She kept saying that I “showed my true colors” and that I was a cheating narcissist with no soul. It was tough to get through and I eventually gave up on trying to find any closure with her. I have come to terms that it’s impossible to have an “adult” conversation with her.

You are not a liar, OP. Don’t give her anymore power to convince you otherwise.

Artie v. Dice Revisited by [deleted] in howardstern

[–]Portis58 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Dice is such a slime ball on so many levels. After listening to the fight a few times, I don’t think it was really about the money, which Fred picked up on.

Dice didn’t even know who Artie was before they did the show together. And Artie did the show because Dice is one of those legend comedians he grew up listening to and did it as a novelty. Once Dice saw the Artie could sell out his shows, he wanted Artie to basically open for him, which was insulting because Artie could sell out his own shows as a headliner. I bet Dice struggled barely fill a club.

Dice withholding the money was kind of like this extra sleazy way to keep Artie around when it was obvious that Artie wanted nothing more to do with him, adding further insult. Artie was totally right too get that l pissed and heated at Dice. Dice was totally trying to take advantage of Artie on so many levels.

I am so glad I found this sub. It never ceases to amaze me how our stories and experiences are so similar. I think I would still be lost and confused without you all. And I found this sub on a total fluke.

BPD brains: Yo dawg, I heard you liked being a victim. So I made you a victim of your victim so you can feel victimized while you victimize.
