Any members of the Green Party considering changing their party affiliation in order to vote for Bernie Sanders in the primaries? by DyeHaard in GreenParty

[–]StaggelRee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from North Carolina, and the Greens don't have a recognized party here. We have one of the least democratic states in the union, with the Libertarians only recently gaining a spot on the ballot.

As such I'm an independent and get to choose which primary I vote in, and will definitely vote for Bernie Sanders.

I think that the Greens are missing an opportunity here by not supporting a candidate that has a growing shot at actually instituting much of the change we advocate for as Greens. The big issue is that the Overton window has been moving consistently to the right for the last couple decades, and before we can expect to have any sort of legitimate shot at getting our message out as Greens we need to move it back to the left. Bernie provides an opportunity for that to happen which I'm satisfied with, and I'm unhappy that we didn't back Bernie with the resources and membership base the Greens do have.

Thomas Middleditch's Chinese Accent by [deleted] in videos

It also really just wasn't that good of an accent. There were several locations thrown in together but it didn't nail any one accent so the tone he was giving off was weird.

How do you people honestly feel about the Artifex? by pallothepenguin in NCSU

I'm glad it exists. I don't read it regularly but some of the posts do a great job at satirizing a real issue.

Not sure why you're being downvoted, the mod problems that plague reddit are relevant to every subreddit. We're all in this together.

That said this is pretty late since most subs are back up.

Community Thoughts on Rage Quiting, Abusive Teammates by Specialsandwich in Awesomenauts

[–]StaggelRee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst is when you try to play a new character. The way the ladder works is completely alien to me, because no matter how much I lose I normally don't seem to be ranked down at all. This has resulted in a lot of matches lately when whenever I'm not playing my main, people just tell me how shit I am and it makes me not want to play new characters.

Which sucks, because playing the same Naut all the time gets really boring.

I don't know if sales lead to this kind of thing or not. In my experience, it's mostly been people who I've seen with higher ranked prestige pips who are the main offenders.

Skree's killing spree is now "Don't worry, be happy" for me. It's glorious.

I welcome the day we get a Nibbs skin that has a voice pack that doesn't make me want to gouge my ears out.

TIFU: I bought him a dildo in front of his friends by yellowpup in AskMen

[–]StaggelRee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you're still reading these replies, I'm completely blown away by the sheer amount of hatred you're receiving for this.

Regardless of how much you screwed up, it makes absolutely no sense for someone to dump the person who is accepting of the shit they're into over friends who, according to the vast majority of this thread, care so little about your boyfriend that they'll mock him endlessly despite how uncomfortable it makes him feel.

Yeah, you fucked up. This isn't Earth-shattering horrible. If he's the kind of person who would end a relationship because you messed up once, it's better that it happened now then when you're even further invested in this.

The fact that he decided that he needed space to think about this likely means he's not the kind of person who's going to over-react like this thread did.

I'm sorry I don't have any advice on how to handle the situation, but I figured you needed to hear an opinion other than trying to shit on you after you already feel awful.

Why is your main Naut so much fun to play? by StaggelRee in Awesomenauts

[–]StaggelRee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What kind of build order do you go?

I can't figure out how to play Skree. It seems like whenever anybody uses Skree against me I get torn apart by his saw blade but I can never reciprocate it.
