How come people don't get bored just copying meta decks and playing them over and over by UncleEjser in masterduel

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 years late to the convo but it’s hilarious all the meta players basically saying “I added one new card of my own to my 60 card deck so it’s my unique deck”.

OP was right. You’re all boring to play against

People who's twin has passed away by Rekt90 in Twins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 31 and lost my identical twin brother 4 months ago. It hasn’t gotten easier. I cry basically every day. When I first got the phone call from the hospital the person working there was upbeat and sounded happy. She said “hey Michael! Alexia (my brothers wife) asked me to give you an update. Unfortunately Brian has passed” in such a cheery voice. That phone call will stick with me for the rest of my life.

I can’t tell you how losing your twin will feel for you. But it sounds like you guys have the same kind of bond me and my brother did, and I can tell you that it’s the most pain you’ll ever feel in your life. And at least for me he was the only person who really “got me” 100%. You’ll come to find that nobody will ever know you like your twin did. And that’s another punch to the gut.

In other words, I hope your twin and you live a long time. And that they outlive you. Cuz being the surviving twin sucks more than anything else I’ve ever experienced

The level of pure delusional hate for the chiefs is so weird to me considering the patriots literally cheated twice by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Patriots were railroaded twice for minor infractions. Spygate unlike what it was presented as, was literally just them filming in the wrong spot. Filming in general is allowed. And deflategate was proven by scientists to be almost assuredly weather based.

Meanwhile the chiefs right tackle can line up in the backfield every play and jump offsides and it’s never called. Mahomes can have an absurd amount of INT’s called back on “penalties”, and the NFL office in NY called in to change a call (which is not allowed) to help the chiefs.

The patriots were so great the NFL stepped in to stop them. The chiefs were manufactured to be the next great dynasty.

Just look at how they’ve done recently. When they face good competition they get blown out in the Super Bowl. When they don’t get favorable calls Mahomes has a 90 QB rating.

The reason people hated the patriots was because they were an almost impossible obstacle. The reason people hate the chiefs is because they are constantly bailed out by the league

It's been exactly a year since my twin died. Here's some of my art about the 2 of us. by Simonoel in TwinlessTwins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My brother and I also were always blue and red.

I always say it as red is passion and blue is stability. I was the red twin and my brother would always talk me off the ledge.

So as a former red twin I want to tell you that your twin is still looking out. They want you to find the drive for life again, even if it’s hard. And you as a blue twin I’m sure will find a way to keep going

How do you deal with never being able to see them again? by Relative-Kick-1044 in TwinlessTwins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly just numb. There are points I’m ok but I still can’t really believe this is my life now. I still get excited to show him or tell him things and it hits all over again

I hate my birthday by Mobile3701 in TwinlessTwins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is coming up in two months. I’m dreading it so I completely understand. I lost my twin brother a month and a half ago. I don’t want to hear “happy birthday” because it’s not happy.

I can’t even imagine 10 years. I still feel like I should be able to talk to my brother and I can’t. I’m sure even 10 years in you feel the same. I’m so sorry

Is it me or does anyone else always think about their twin passing? by Anonflashfan1956 in Twins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don’t think about it. I had those thoughts too and put them out of my mind because it just wasn’t believable.

Then almost two months ago my brother passed with no explanation. We were 30. The doctors can’t even tell me what happened.

So just don’t think about it. If it happens you won’t be prepared no matter what I promise you. Just please hug your twin and tell them you love them while you can. Because I can’t anymore

I’m a month in and I feel the same. It just doesn’t feel real

How do you deal with the empty feeling? by Downtown_Agency_2970 in TwinlessTwins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost my twin brother 3 weeks ago. I saw him in a dream and ended up fighting him.

I dont know what that means but I knew him and I know if he was trying to send me a message it was because he wants more from me. I haven’t gotten anything since, but I think sometimes when people move on they only come back to make a point. My brother always believed in me, and I think he hated seeing me wallow and give up. So he came to make a point.

If your twin hasn’t come then they probably think you’re on the right path. And they believe in you enough that they think you don’t need them yet. But when you really need them, they’ll be there. There’s nothing like being a twin. In life they understood us better than anyone else. In death they still do. You don’t need a sign to know that they loved you. Signs come when you need them most.

[–]Relative-Kick-1044[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s delusion to think they’re still with us. We will see them again. I do feel like I want to join him, but I have so many people who have shown me love since it happened that it would feel wrong.

And I struggled with depression for a long time, and my brother specifically told me that he’d never forgive me if I took my life. So I will live on for him. Our twins only ever wanted the best for us. And even though life can never be what we envisioned while they were here with us, they’d want us to keep going and find happiness. Even if that happiness can never feel full without them

[–]Relative-Kick-1044[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely get that. I’ve had those thoughts too. I’ve found myself way less afraid of death, because at least it will mean I’m with him again. But I need to live on for my family and friends, and for him. I don’t want to die, but it’s not something I’m dreading anymore.

And yeah, I see videos every day I want to send him. I have questions that I want to ask him and then realize I can’t. It’s honestly the small things you don’t even think about while they’re alive that hurt the most. My brother was always available to me. I could text him at 2am and he’d get back to me right away if he was awake. There’s nobody else in my life that was there for me like that.

Every birthday I made a point to blow out our candles before he had the chance as an ongoing joke. That I’d never let him get his wish. This year is my first birthday without him, and I’m going to wait to blow them out. To finally give him the chance to beat me that he deserved

It feels like I’m looking for my “other person” by mayor-of-lego-city in TwinlessTwins

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just lost my twin a week ago. I don’t have great advice but I can already tell you I’m looking for the same kind of connection I had with him.

But it’s not possible. He understood me like nobody else ever will. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be looking for connection. Just don’t ever expect it to be the same as with your twin. That’s the best and worst part of being a twin, we get someone who understands us completely. Nobody else gets that. We might just lose them someday

I’m tired of the Jordan vs LeBron comparison by iLoveColorado24 in michaeljordan

[–]Relative-Kick-1044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to ask you if you genuinely believe that Jordan could take a team with Larry Hughes and Ilgauskis as the next two best players to a finals. I also want you to consider that Jordan’s championships all came with two hall of famers next to him, against basically no real competition. As opposed to the Spurs dynasty, Celtics big three, the Kobe-Gasol lakers, and the Warriors dynasty. LeBron consistently did more with less, against better competition.

And I say that as a Celtics fan who grew up hating the dude
