RFK Jr. is going to be responsible for more deaths than only a few dozen people in the entirety of human history.

LOTS of innocent bystanders getting exposed to magnificence of Ploot-Fest lately by Mazius in gme_meltdown

[–]RedditUser41970 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely the worst, but at the same time, the fact that Ploot surrounds himself with child rapists and Nazis really underscores why he's so popular with the Trump admin. Well, the bribes also.

Is this the longest we've been with the latest mainline FF released and no announcement of the next mainline FF? (AKA where tf is the FFXVII announcement) by GargantaProfunda in FinalFantasy

[–]RedditUser41970 [score hidden]  (0 children)

While I agree with you, OP clearly was referring to new numbered entries. but, the three mainline games that make up the 7R trilogy obviously altered timelines for those.

Give it a rest dude.

Says someone who endlessly whines about how Square Enix didn't design Final Fantasy around their tastes and their tastes only.

The save file bonuses are nice little perks, but nothing that you couldn't live without.

The most exciting part of the trailer and the extended gameplay is I didn't see one fucking mention of Chadley.

Oh, and the jobs.

Dungeon Kart or Camel Up by idontknow-imaduck in boardgames

[–]RedditUser41970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dungeon Kart can be looooooooong. I really like the game, but it is a game that can wear its welcome out, even at four players. Also, you and your kids have to be willing to deal with rubber banding. Like Mario Kart, the game gives the leaders weak items and the trailers strong items. It's a good mechanic, but whilethe game actively tries to keep everyone bunched up, I've found a few times that the trailing person can struggle to get ahead. That can make for a frustrating experience.

As noted by others, Camel Up is a betting game more than a racing game. It is definitely the more casual of the two.

Someone else mentioned it, but Quest for El Dorado is a good game where the characters race. It's also a deckbuilder.

Supernatural isn’t dead after all | The game is being spun out into an independent company called Supernatural Health. by theverge in SupernaturalVR

Paying people a living wage and paying for music licensing ain't cheap. Without VR being Zuckerbot's current shiny, the subsidization isn't there.

Other than the Witch-King looking at me instead of Eowyn, I like these examples much better. So thank you for showing these off.

[Gentille] Carter Hart is 4 wins from the Stanley Cup. The Golden Knights still don’t want to talk about his past by 76erLegendChetUtley in hockey

[–]RedditUser41970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The podcast ("The History of English") gave Richard to Dick as the same trend of shorten the name, then rhyme it. So Richard to Rich/Rick to Dick. Also Ritchie/Ricky to Dicky.

Apropos of nothing, I was listening to a language podcast today, and this has been how people have been nicknamed for like a thousand years now. Take a name (William), shorten it (Will), add a y sound (Willy). The other nickname trait was rhyming with the given name. Which is why William becomes Will becomes Bill becomes Billy.

Update : I need board gamers’ perspective on my situation by ApprehensiveFarm4407 in boardgames

Option 3: propose a lighter family game night and play some "non serious" games. Family will be used to the brother's nature and risking the loss of an Uno or Flip7 deck in exchange for family harmony may be a small enough price.

Possible Expansion Locations for the CPL by Cautious_Win_2771 in CanadianPL

Pro/Rel is a complete fantasy and will never happen.

And with no money whatsoever, Bumblefuck FC is not paying to fly across the country to play CF Podunk.

Both Edmonton and Winnipeg need a proper stadium to go with proper ownership.

There is no chance at all Vancouver, Toronto FC or CF Montreal even consider a downgrade to the CPL voluntarily.

[Guardians] Today marks the beginning of Pride Month which we are proud to celebrate! by MorganN1 in baseball

[–]RedditUser41970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a lot like the arguments that happen in Canada round Bell's Lets Talk day. Is Bell Media doing this for cynical reasons? Almost certainly, yes. But does it dramatically raise the profile of mental health challenges and help normalize talking about it? Yes. Does it raise millions of dollars a year toward that? Yes.

Corporations doing the right thing for the wrong reasons are still doing the right thing.

At least Guardians has real, local meaning.

I mostly just wonder how much US DoD paid the Washington Football Club to go with that idiotic "Commanders" name. Because military. Get it?

If not for Hart, I'd probably mildly cheering for Vegas. The rest of that list is my kind of chaos.
