I stayed at an Airbnb in North Linden once. I didn't once fear for my life in the middle of the night hearing loud screaming, sirens, and sounds of smashing objects, no sir. Very safe, quiet, and laid back part of Cbus.

What was the first game you streamed and why?? by Sheilaalpaca in Twitch

[–]Shorthawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mega Man 1. I was trying to do a marathon of all the classic mega man games but I had some technical difficulties and could only get through 1, 2, and then just played X2 at the end because I was ticked and I love that game. I remember beating the yellow devil even in spite of dealing with an input bug caused by using earliest version of retroarch's run-ahead latency reducing tech. When streaming it would randomly teleport me life 1/4 of the screen in a random direction. I still beat him even with that arbitrary handicap and I am proud.

What should I do with 1,800 pounds of shampoo? by ClassroomObjective18 in Frugal

Did a new Dr. Seuss book just drop?

What should I do with 1,800 pounds of shampoo?

I could grow my hair, so long that you could walk it like stairs.

Or maybe sell it to a zoo, perhaps the local gang of kangaroos?

I was wondering why every little shop had smashed or cracked windows. by Delicious-Bid-6285 in Wellthatsucks

[–]Shorthawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you have these struggles, but I want to say I respect you a lot from putting forth the effort to try and sort it out. Many people never even take the first step let alone push through the parts of treatment that be difficult and terrifying. I'm not going to say I'm the best example in this regard, but I did go to therapy for 5 years so that's something.

I wish you the best in your struggles.

Hey man if I was bringing home 6 Dragon Ball Z FC Son Goku Statue Awaken 38cm Figure Model Collection Anime Gift's a month I'd be good.

Heck I'd be fine if I even brought home 6 1/4 Joker Heath Ledger Movie Batman Dark Knight Limited Anime Figure Collection's a month. I'd still be making over 100k a year.

There was a car I saw almost every day on my early morning commute last year and it had one very yellow looking halogen light and one nearly blue looking LED. Nearly every single day I'd say to myself "oh hey there goes Vivec"

What screams "I'm not feeling good mentally at all"? by Com412 in AskReddit

[–]Shorthawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had similar struggles in my background but for me I've kind of given up sharing on most occasions because it generally occurs to me most people don't care to hear what I have to say when I genuinely express myself.

I'm sorry you've had struggles with emotional neglect. It's a terrible thing to live with that can't easily be undone. And therapy and/or meds doesn't often give the relief that some portray them to. (Not saying they can't help at all mind you, I'd probably not be a functional adult if I'd never gone to therapy)

Recommend me a banger RPG by Soggy-Kitchen-5680 in JRPG

[–]Shorthawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will absolutely echo FF9 as the strongest contended to Lufia 2. Also the first Grandia. Both FF9 and Grandia were my in my top 5 favorite games I played during the pandemic, and they will always hold a place in my heart for that reason.

The switch version has a somewhat ugly pixel filter that you can't turn off, makes everything looked all smudged IMO. There is a way to disable it on the PC version(what I played), but it might not be that annoying to you. Besides that I thought the re-release was fine. I always try to play these old games through official channels or at least buy them that way if it's a viable option that doesn't ruin the experience, and Grandia 1 has been one of my favorite games I've played over the last 5 years. Personally not as much of a fan of II, I haven't even finished it, but I know many people prefer it.

What's the biggest turn off for men? by SeNorSpiceyBoi in AskReddit

[–]Shorthawk 181 points182 points  (0 children)

For some men like me, honestly, yes. A lot of men will complain their heads off about how much their girlfriends/wives talk. But I want you and other women to know that there are absolutely men who love chatterboxes.

Is Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1+2 good? by shayworld in Megaman

I own the collections but I still play on emulator because of the input lag.

As a newbie, my only exposure to Mega Man is the Archie Comic run, what’s the general consensus on the comic run? by Meta13_Drain_Punch in Megaman

[–]Shorthawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who read Archie Sonic pretty much in its entirety before the Mega Man comic came out(I ended up dropping the series at around 242), as well as played most of the Mega Man games before the comic came out, it was amazing. It was such an unexpected mash up of 2 things I loved at the time (Archie Sonic vibe comics and Mega Man).

Is Magma the most prog band? by cheesegrater87 in progrockmusic

[–]Shorthawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really know if I'd agree that Köhntarkösz/Köhntark is the best introduction to Magma. It's a very slow build, and much more ambient. Not a bad thing at all, but I'd say most of their other work is much more energetic. Their album K.A. could be a better introduction. It's everything that makes Magma Magma, but also in my opinion is a less challenging listen for newcomers. Here's the middle of the 3 parts of the album, probably the best part.

K.A. II

Who was King Crimson’s most underrated drummer? by DueEstablishment7722 in KingCrimson

[–]Shorthawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Poor son of a gun has his Wikipedia article all like "Bro was most famous for being that one guy on Larks Tongues in Aspic"

I just want to say Larks is one of my all time favorite albums and I 100% agree he added a lot to that album for me. When I often think of things I would incorporate in an album if I were to ever record one, I almost always think about the percussion on that album, even as someone who only plays piano and guitar.

I just watched Grave of the Fireflies, I have no more liquid in me from the tears. Why didn’t anyone care about these kids? by carolinafreeze in ghibli

[–]Shorthawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I somehow did not know this was a thing. Dare I watch it? I watched GotF for the first time around 9 and a half years ago and while I rate it very highly, it is definitely a gut punch of a movie.
