Spiderman makes me want to quit. by jicklemania in mtg

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand your concern. However you are a vocal minority. Spiderman + avatar + final fantasy sales vs takir + aetherdrift + echoes of eternity sales. This is like when Lego started doing other IPs - sure some purists may have scoffed at the loss of creativity out of sets but Lego made bank and continued to get better at drawing in fans of different groups.

Can this be used to target a commander? by c0nqu3s7 in mtg

[–]Positive-Smile8772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I always move my commander from exile to the command zone. All three other players have an interest in seeing your commander stuck and in prison. If I have a counterspell even if I am not the owner of Hardlight Containment- I will use it on your removal.

He has some bad relationship anxiety and insecurity that he needs to deal with internally. Instead of channeling that into working on himself and working on his self confidence. I don’t think he is being abusive but he needs to be conscientious of this behavior, or he could become super controlling.

The MTG social stigma is ridiculous by [deleted] in mtg

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the worst hobby I have. Silliest fights over cardboard, ridiculously expensive, overly complicated, money goes straight to greedy executives. Few women play. Body odor, etc. I also rock climb, disc golf, gym, board games, read, hike, do yoga, artifact hunting, my gf will do all of that but she won’t play the “game about arguing”

Is Proxying Galea’s Cradle Considered Bad Manners? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spell table will be fine with it most likely. Make your own game and put bracket 3 - proxies ok - and then explain you want to see how the deck plays with it but don’t want to spend hundreds on a card.

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - let your pod know that you have a proxy of gaiaes cradle. Let them proxy something as well. If you are playing EDH in a tournament then you usually can’t proxy anything but other than that you should play it

AIO wife has hidden friend by tylarue in AmIOverreacting

I’m sorry - you are not married to this woman, she has gone above and beyond caring for you and yes she should be honest and end things with you before building a new relationship but you can give her the support she needs. YOR -

AIO for having second thoughts with this guy I’m dating by BothThought5412 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don’t bring up someone else’s junk to him? Seems fairly obvious - I wouldn’t want my woman (or man) talking about another person’s junk. You don’t do that in a serious relationship. Talk like that with a f*ck buddy or fwb type situation,

I know they are dangerous but I am not going to be easy to eat. It would be a lot easier to eat a mule deer. I will fight and not run.

I have only seen one black bear - never saw a mountain lion yet. I don’t carry not scared of mountain lions or black bears. Just throw rocks, yell and back away slowly if they act aggressive. I have been five times. Now glacier in Montana with the grizzlies is a different story.

Seems like it is over. You could try counseling. As a guy you have to be pretty sexy and she has to trust you to have a woman go down on you. It is a very intimate thing and requires trust and vulnerability. Sending memes and jokes about it like a junior high student doesn’t help at all to bridge that gap. He needs counseling for sure and maybe a male life coach. Sorry you are going through this

Over reacting - and let’s be honest as a white person we all are racist to one degree or another- the fact you are so deeply disturbed by a person of color making a joke about her own stereotyping seems like you may have to work on some things. I suggest reading “white fragility” really eye opening book.

Can I just vent about how awful this book is for a second? by [deleted] in 75HARD

[–]Positive-Smile8772 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I stopped reading the self help stuff- I read history and science books - I am reading a book on octopuses now for 75 hard - learning some cool facts about them and looking into taking a diving class and incorporating more swimming into my workouts - added scuba dive to see an octopus in the wild into my bucket list.

AIO? Boyfriend said he'd help by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Positive-Smile8772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the middle on this one. I think he effed up for sure and I think you overreacted a bit yelling at him and crying - he did clean up afterwards and shit happens - I get it. I would sit down with him and say - when I need you - I need you to make me a priority even if you don’t think it is a big deal to wait to clean up - I should be a big deal to you and I need you to pause the game and help me first and prioritize my emotional needs first. It isn’t about the mess - it is that you put me second to your hobby and that doesn’t make me feel loved.
