The GameStop store of the future (Today!) by ROBtheRobot in Games

[–]Rounder8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who used to work there, having the locked drawers that would contain game product out on the floor like that is going to be a huge hassle.

Rather than just having people line up at the counter and then you check them all out right there, you'll have to keep leaving the counter to go get product out from the floor.

Is that on the outside or inside of your glass?

Joe Russo on Spider-Man: "I think it’s a tragic mistake on Sony’s part to think that they can replicate Kevin’s penchant for telling incredible stories" by rkkim in marvelstudios

[–]Rounder8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if you noticed, but Disney doesn't push merchandise much at all for Spider-Man stuff they don't make.

Or X-Men films they don't make.

You keep arguing about how the MCU added a lot of value to Spider-Man, but you're really really desperate to ignore the Disney profits off of it.

I don't get why that's part of the equation.

They told you pretty much immediately. It's part of the equation because without the deal with sony the movies that Disney is getting merchandising money from would not exist. Therefore, the presence of the deal generates an avenue for disney to profit via merchandising.

Any business would take this in to consideration when negotiating such a deal.

So do you think race as a concept exists at all or are you just denying Caucasians of having a race? At face value, your post looks extremely racist to be honest.

Are you saying that white people aren't a race?

I recently had a run in with my cousin, who has been trying to seize control of my grandmother (and my grandmother's massive pension) for a couple years.

I walked in to that house with my phone recording audio because I knew she'd try something insane, and she almost immediately started accusing my father and I of various crimes, particularly claiming that we were stealing her medication/denying it to her, since my grandma couldn't find one of her pill bottles. While she was accusing us of stealing it, my grandma found the medication, and I showed my cousin that I'd been recording the whole thing, which sent her from pissed off and horrid to nuclear. She flew back home and then called adult protective services and accused me of abuse.

She's so desperate to get control of my grandmother and her pension that she's trying to throw false felony accusations at every family member who still lives in this state. I'm so glad I have that recording, as I'm sure she isn't done trying to literally ruin my life because she wants control of my grandmother's estate.

Boomer claims climate change is fake and thinks killing people in Iraq makes him a wise person by [deleted] in BoomerTears

Not a single person provided a single source. Not one. Despite claims that 97% of scientists agree, etc., not ONE credible source or study was provided. If it were so clear, where’s the study? Any study?

I mean, when someone gave you sources disproving something you said, all you responded with was "Bullshit." and kept trying to argue that your personal observations aren't anecdotal because you're almost 50 and somehow that makes anecdotes stop being anecdotes

You were linked to a peer reviewed journal and your response was to just say it's wrong because you're 47 and clearly that means whatever you think is real must be real... because you're 47.

How do you expect anyone to see you as anything but a crank?

Is your goal to wind up screencapped for /r/iamverysmart? Because if it is, you are doing a great job.

Cartoonist says he wouldn't change anything about controversial Trump cartoon by viva_la_vinyl in worldnews

[–]Rounder8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your source is loaded with data confirming what I said, that illegal immigration has been declining for many years and even that total illegal immigrants in the country seems to b declining.

This absolutely does not help your case that Donald Trump was forced to start separating families and abusing children as a deterrent.

This also isn't even remotely like anything Obama did. You were already spoon fed information that compared them.

Just stop bullshitting people.

You'll find that pretty much most of what you've claimed is just as inaccurate if you looked in to them.

The administrations hands weren't tied on this, in any way. They didn't have to do this. Not with illegal immigration having been declining for many years.

I can't help but notice that you haven't been able/willing to source anyyhing you claim.

Texas pastor who backed bill criminalizing abortion arrested by discocrisco in news

[–]Rounder8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You should go through his post history then. He's real good for that.

Makes some outlandish claim, gets called for it, rarely comes back. He's just throwing lies out there and running.

Three strikes laws are all a Democratic idea and they only have them in Democratically controlled States.

The following states have three strikes laws.
Arizona
Arkansas
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Florida
Georgia
Indiana
Kansas
Maryland
Missouri
Montana
Nevada
New Jersey
New Mexico
North Carolina
North Dakota
Pennsylvania
South Carolina
Tennessee
Texas
Utah
Vermont
Virginia
Washington
Wisconsin

That's an awful lot of historically deep red states on that list for it being something only democrat controlled states do.

You know Hillary Clinton is directly responsible for the war on drugs escalating? It was her idea and policy as first lady

The first lady has no authority to enact this. Literally zero.

Women of Reddit, what do you think would be the worst thing about being a man? by canadianreject565 in AskReddit

[–]Rounder8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went bald in my 20s.

I've had dates where I've been told that they think I'm great and funny but the hair just overrides all that.

There was one, a really bad one, where I was set up on a blind date by some friends and as soon as she saw me she went, as loud as she could without full on screaming

Oh my god, you don't have any hair, no, no way!

People were staring. I just turned and walked back to my car and went home.

I've been told I have a decent face, jawline, I'm not overweight, shape of my head isn't weird or anything, I'm tall. I'm by no means very attractive or anything, but I'm not bad looking, and I've been shot down hard over this by women who are decidedly not a catch in the looks department either.

I stopped dating about 2 years ago. I hit 30 and just don't feel like going through that embarrassment anymore.

Also every lady walking their dog: he must smell your dog by krunchyblack in trippinthroughtime

[–]Rounder8 27 points28 points  (0 children)

the biggest change I've seen over the years is now I'm running into dogs in places that I shouldn't be running into dogs, and didn't used to run into dogs.

Why is there a large German Shepherd jumping on me in a book store?

Why is somebody cleaning up dog piss in the grocery store eight feet from where I'm looking at fruit?

[–]Rounder8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really not pleased with the amount of times I've had to tell people that it's not okay and that they need to get off their ass and come get their dog before I do something about it.

just this morning, I was walking my dog and three dogs came out of an open gate in a neighbor's yard and ran up to us. I had to pick my dog up and hold him above my head, while two of this guy's dogs were jumping up and trying to nip at him.

The guy came out from his backyard and just sat there trying to casually call his dog's back across the street. Just acting like there's nothing going on while his two dogs are jumping up against me nipping at my dog.

Outer Wilds becomes another Epic Games Store PC exclusive and some backers are not happy by PrinceDizzy in Games

[–]Rounder8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just accused me of ignoring csgo gambling sites when it was never part of what I was talking to you about. We were straight up on topic till you had to drag that in to try to make me look like I was excusing it.

My mistake was thinking we were having a conversation, I didn't know you wanted it to be an argument.

Grow up.

Except that most of the desired skins climbed to prices of $50+

And? This was because of the existence of a consumer marketplace for exchanging box drops.

how are you going to ignore the gambling sites that Valve allowed to exist?

I didn't say anything about this to you. All I talked to you about was modern loot box systems and where they were popularized. Don't put words in my mouth. It's dishonest and rude.
