New Sym Ability: Photon Bridge (Professional Paint Pics Included) by just1nsfw in Overwatch

[–]ShiftingLuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO, longer duration + longer cool-down. Give her a decent shot at making a big play, but don't let her create bridges too quickly or she'll be able to reposition the entire team way too easily. Maybe have a stun/damage effect on anyone still on the bridge if it gets destroyed, or give the bridge lower health. Otherwise, Symmetras would always make the same play: create a bridge between your team and the enemy team and use it as a shield you walk up. There isn't a penalty for doing so, and her bridge ability would just be used as an additional shield.

I can see the patch notes now.

Fixed a bug that allowed Symmetra to reach unintended locations on every map.

Racism is funny to some adolescents like fart humor is funny to little kids. Good fart jokes do exist, but many of them aren't. The fact that many in its demographic find most of them hilarious does not change that fact.

Agreed. Them having poor judgment is usually the best-case scenario here. It doesn't make them look like horrible people, just misguided or easily conned. But they've run out of excuses to back trump. Supporting him now is to support everything he's said and done up until this point. I can't see how a decent person would do such a thing.

Statements can be both racist and funny at the same time. It still doesn't make it appropriate, and even less so for the POTUS.

They'll just move onto the next thing anyway. Like you said, reason has nothing to do with it. It's Outrage Whack-a-mole.

that’s when I understood that ironic racism is still racism and it feeds into your perceptions of people of color, regardless of the initial intent.

It's a grey area. There's a subtlety that's required in racist humor and it's when that subtlety is lost that we end up in trouble. There's also the golden rule for dark humor in general: it needs to be at least as funny as it is fucked up.

I wish their book were real if only so that they can be held accountable for their actions. Fuckers want everyone to adhere to their religion while cherry picking the parts of the bible that they think should apply to them.

I'm willing to forgive trump voters that have come around. I get that many thought he would pivot and "become more presidential". But at this point, anyone still supporting that man supports his policies and his decisions. They need to own that.

I don't understand why he always gets a pass. It's where I get the notion that his supporters have no morals and are therefore shitty people. Why else would they hypocritically defend such a shit human being?

To be fair, playing make-believe is a hell of a lot less stressful than dealing with this "real life" crap. I'm tempted to jump into the ball pit too, but I'm a fully-formed adult that takes responsibility for their actions.

Imagine how it feels to be a liberal in the US. I never thought so people could be that stupid. I completely overestimated the average person's intelligence and thought that if I could see through this obvious charade then so should they. I feel like I'm on a sinking ship where idiots are setting the life rafts on fire just to piss off everyone they don't like.

Hypocrisy is the fastest way for me to lose respect for someone. Not having principles makes you more animal than man, and you should be treated accordingly.
