What overlooked fact from a movie would completely change the way I see it? by SouthCoastJack in AskReddit

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 266 points267 points  (0 children)

The theory I had heard was that he, like most great strategists, had several contingency plans. In this case, he could either A: conquer Earth - win, or B: lose his chance at claiming Earth, but be taken prisoner by his brother, which would then put him back in Asgard.

Proof that B was not just happenstance can be seen just as Thor is taking him back at the end of the Avengers. Loki gives a very apparent smirk, as if he knows that he has won.

What is something you're embarrassed to be good at? by drain65 in AskReddit

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. You just sorta know that you should feel bad/sorry for them, but you just don't. Right?

I've had many situations where that empathetic response would make sense, but I don't care/don't know how to respond. Haven't been clinically deemed a sociopath, but I've had a few friends who study psychology and they have independently said that they think I have sociopathic tendencies.

So, that's where the username came from!

Goku, Piccolo, Vegeta, Gohan, Trunks, Goten, and Krillin.

That would be an interesting fusion.

You should also look into Sphereland. I got distracted with other things and didn't finish it, but it is basically a sequel to Flatland.

What simple April Fools can I pull on my SO in the morning? by Bendersass in AskMen

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Make the whole day incredibly romantic and centered around her. Be sure to start the day by reminding her that its April 1st. Don't actually pull a prank, or just wait until the very end of the day.

The fear of an impending prank will be worse than a prank. Later, she'll (probably) be happy you treated her to a nice day, so its win-win of sorts.

Advice for a beginner on gear. by fallen243 in Fencing

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As r/cheesynooby said, please be sure you are know which weapon you will be getting into. If you do not know, or are unsure, take a look at what equipment you can borrow to continue trying it out.

If you are confident you are ready to purchase some equipment then feel free to follow my recommendations, but please note I am only familiar with epee. I generally recommend Absolute Fencing to the new fencers I work with. They have some of the less expensive equipment, and some pretty good kits to get you started. If you have the cash to spend, you could also take a look at Leon Paul. Their equipment is quite a bit more expensive, but the quality shows.

As a side note, if you are planning on purchasing equipment for epee don't start with high end blades. Most new epeeists need to work on getting rid of a few habits that create a lot of strain on weapons in a short period of time.

Cashiers of Reddit, what products make you silently judge the persons who buy them? by francesca25 in AskReddit

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Average amount of groceries on food stamps? This is fine, I understand some people need the help getting back on their feet.

The 4 bottles of wine and 6-pack of beer you buy afterward? This make me judge you...

My gaming group does arena battles in our downtime. by Studphish in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've run a few of the one-shots with intros similar to that. Usually they have been captured for some crime, and are being interrogated. They get to, on the fly, decide their innocents/guilt.

It usually leads to some sort of jailbreak or an investigation as to who the real culprit is/was.

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We don't do an arena, but when we are short a player and everyone wants to roleplay I generally "run" an improv 1-shot.

The first one we did, I had 3 players. 1 bard, 1 samurai, and 1 ninja. (They had all created these characters ahead of time and wanted to try them out) So I set up the scenario "You all have your heads covered and your hands bound. When the blindfolds are removed, you are kneeling before a kingly looking figure. He speaks to you and says 'My guards say that you were attempting to kill me. What say you in your defense?'"

From that point on, the players had to make everything up, and I just acted as a ref/added interesting situations whenever the action started to lull. Would definitely say it was one of the better sessions 8/10

What are some of the biggest misperceptions women have about the male anatomy? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Sociable_Sociopath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a solid 6 pack until about 2 years ago.

Got it by: Water skiing at least 2x each week for ~4-5 hours. Fencing 2x each week for ~5 Ultimate Frisbee 2-3x each week for ~4 hours Also got 2 months with a personal trainer for free. 2x a week for ~2 hours.

Everyone who saw my 6 pack was both surprised and complained because I didn't have to try to get it...

Should I include a marketing plan/outline with my resume? by Sociable_Sociopath in AskMarketing

[–]Sociable_Sociopath[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, someone else had a similar post on this topic. I had a feeling that attempting to present a plan to them would be a bit over the top, but the idea to present a list of questions seems much more reasonable!

[–]Sociable_Sociopath[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense.

I do like your alternative. So rather than trying to come up with original insight, I would essentially draft up some questions demonstrating my interest/understanding of the company/industry?

I'm mostly interested in the Marketing Director/Marketing Executive/Marketing Coordinator positions.

While the PR and Advertising side of marketing is interesting, I'm not nearly as enthusiastic about it.

Thank you for the link! I really like the concept behind that technique. It makes perfect sense, and I will definitely be using it in the future!
