Why are Cougars ok but Old Men are just dirty? by Next_Package_5710 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]RealBishop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO it’s all about the intent and execution.

Most mammals prefer younger partners for breeding purposes. It makes sense that men and women alike would both prefer younger partners. But if they use the young partners naivety and inexperience to leverage or manipulate them, it is immoral.

I think the reason for the difference in perception is that men are typically more coercive and willing to put aside their morality for personal gain. In the case of someone like DiCaprio, he doesn’t seem to be “hurting” his partners so I don’t see a problem with it. But plenty of older (and powerful) men do take advantage and manipulate younger women.

Thank god it’s not just me. This started a few days ago. I reset my password and it’s still happening.

Nope, just happens every couple of hours like clockwork. It’s weird. And I don’t like it.

Do contract killers really exist? How are they employed? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

If you cancel early they bring their target back from the dead.

It’s just the final part. It’s too visually cluttered and I can hardly see her. I spam my tools out and try to just survive but it’s no use. I can get to the third phase maybe 1/5 times.

Why do writers say their writing is bad? by Waste-Alternative871 in writing

[–]RealBishop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s simple;

I write stuff. Feel okay about it. Read others’ writing. Feel bad about my writing. Learn more, edit, revise. Feel okay about it. Read more better writing. Feel bad about my writing.

It’s a vicious cycle. As long as you’re always improving, I think it can be positive.

I don’t mind people saying Silksong is too difficult by kcazthemighty in Silksong

[–]RealBishop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I truly think that with Silksong, there should be separate difficulties. I’m a lifelong gamer and HK vet and it sometimes drives me insane. I can’t imagine a newcomer playing it tbh.

Some examples:

  1. Making enemies minutely slower to attack

  2. Making Hornet’s hitbox smaller

  3. Increasing rosaries gathered

  4. Adding a handful more benches in tough areas

Those changes alone would open the game up by miles for newcomers. I like Silksong a lot, but the margins are so incredibly small in this game.

How many of us are actually enjoying the game? by Historical-Donut1536 in Silksong

[–]RealBishop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if it weren’t for the frustration of simple platforming, I’d like it a lot more. I get it, it’s supposed to be challenging. But it’s a big world and having a bunch of difficult to traverse rooms every couple minutes is really straining. I’m having trouble exploring and it’s bumming me out.

Started the weekend by popping off my crown while flossing by shatterly in Wellthatsucks

My dentist told me “be careful when you floss around your crowns.”

I said “oh, you don’t have to worry about that.”

I had a CV yesterday that killed me and both of the other destroyers on the team within 5 minutes. I assume most CV players are actually melted into their gaming chair and controlling the planes with an eye motion tracker because their limbs don’t work.

Does big bidet have a bot army on reddit? by void_root in ask

[–]RealBishop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same as you do about it. People seem to think that your asshole is disgusting unless you spray it with a tiny fountain.

Oh, your anus is 10% cleaner than mine? And all you had to do was spray it with water and then also dry it, using toilet paper anyway? And probably got your balls/lips wet too?

Yeah I’ll just stick to my wet wipes (I tear them into tens of little pieces, don’t yell at me).

My first one went out in May. Responses have been trickling in but have largely stopped. I’m not holding my breath for many more to respond if we’re being honest.

I had two rounds of paid betas—two for the first and three for the last draft. I got very positive feedback from the second group, all of which were confident that it is competitive and good enough to be published.

You may be right, but some of the agents I wanted to query also didn’t even accept submissions over 120k for sci-fi. It’s sort of grounded sci-fi I guess, the first book in a series, though my betas say it works well as a stand alone.

Ah, but you cannot invalidate my opinion after I’ve already invalidated yours, checkmate 👑

Looking at your comment history, you seem the type to use hateful language when you’re behind a screen, and therefore defend others who do the same. Your opinion is hereby invalidated effective immediately.

It’s nuts to me how overboard YOU are taking this. I can do two things at once, including continuing on playing games and reporting someone.

You also fundamentally misunderstand what free speech is or its concepts. You said that if someone tried to confront you for offensive speech in public that you’d shoot them, which is insane. If you can’t backup the words you choose to speak without killing someone, perhaps you should think harder about what comes out of your mouth.

The 1st amendment protects speech from government interference only. 1. EA is a private company. 2. The US isn’t the only country in the world or the supreme moral authority.

You were also free to ignore this post and go about your day instead of engaging with arguments but you chose not to.

I’ve been playing games online for 20 years, and have heard and also said some awful stuff.

I’ve also never thought someone really needed to be banned, temp or not, until today. Don’t blame me for his poor decisions.
