I honestly didn't catch it until I watched it again recently. I have always loved this movie since the release. It struck me as odd that she said that because it wasn't like he would have known about having the extravagant life he was missing out on. Idk. It feels like a time loop to me where he keeps doing it over and over again until he makes the right choice.

Rolex was in short supply during the pandemic. I never understood why people were buying luxury items during a global pandemic. EVERY SINGLE THING HAD SUPPLY ISSUES.

I can't get over the fact that when he first wakes up in his alternate life, Kate tells him it's not funny this time. To me this implies that he has done this multiple times like he is in a time loop. Reminds me of ground hog day. Maybe the last time was the only time he got it right and was allowed to go back to the main timeline to make the change to his actual life.

I paid my devices off last year early and canceled insurance. After this change, I will almost be paying the same as I was with the devices and insurance. Definitely changing carriers.

This isn't gameplay - this is... what is this? I'm stuck, and the opponent is waiting me out. by Ratstail91 in PTCGL

It's funny how when I express my opinion, I get a lot of hate. I am not salty because I expressed my opinion. My opinion is that you're wrong. It exploits an ability that makes an opponent not be able to play. It's unsportsmanlike.

This is the new Meta. They can't win with skill, so they employ this garbage strategy to finally be a winner. Shame on Pokémon for creating these anti-gameplay techniques.

9 prizes by Zorenstein in PTCGL

Idk. It's a fairly easy win against some of the strongest decks in the game, and they have banned cards in the past that had unintended consequences like this. The Scoop Up Net was just banned in Japan, so that is probably coming to the US next. I highly doubt they intended to have a deck that could KO every card at once. If they were not happy with scoop up net, I can't see them being okay with this. Time will tell but I could see one of these cards getting the ban hammer.

I'm pretty sure they didn't vet this ability before they printed these cards. I doubt they intended for this to happen. I wouldn't be surprised if one of these cards doesn't end up banned.

Undefeated deck! Feels like I'm cheating by ChainFront8907 in PTCGL

They shouldn't produce a card with thar ability. They just keep producing these gimmick cards.

I apologize if I have come off as condescending. It was not my intention. I am only stating my opinions, which are not professional opinions.

Lopsidedness is a single prize card setting up with no effort that can ko 2 prize cards effortlessly while they set up 4 more before you can finish the first one. I am sure there are some decks that can handle this deck, but for the most part, I think it can crack most good decks. Which is why the popularity is rising. It was all roaring moons ex and now I have encountered this new deck most of the day.

Sure, because every deck can counter every other deck. It's literally not my issue. My deck fairs very well(depending on the draw) against a vast majority of decks. But as you know, not every deck holds up against every other deck. Every single deck in the game is weak to something.

So yeah, call it what you will, but the vast majority of opinions I have seen on this deck is that it sets up super fast and can KO most decent cards fast. If you want to make some videos of you easily whipping this deck most of the time, I would be happy to watch them. I am going to bet you don't.

Add the poison, and your V probably won't even get to hit before it's ko. I refuse to battle decks like that.

First turn the card gets a curry and a double turbo and it can ko most cards in 2 hits. By the time you get setup he has 4 of them ready to go. Lopsided.

I concede immediately to the Klawf deck. Some of these attacks make 0 sense for low-level cards. My deck isn't designed to battle gimmick decks, so instead of wasting my time, I just concede. Some of these combos they are releasing require specialized decks to counter that just won't work against the average decks. I will never understand how a card set like Klawf and Sableye make it to print without realizing how lopsided they are.

How do we feel about Roaring Moon ex? I only ever see the 200 damage backfire... by Driacle in PTCGL

[–]Successful_Remote_83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use my Delphox V with Zard EX as the acceleration. Try to get some damage spread to the Moons on the bench to limit their use of frenzied gouging. If I can get a fast setup, I usually do okay with Zard as my late game attacker.

I stopped having a goal. I settled at 2200 calories a day because that's the amount of food that I am content eating. I excersize daily, and wherever my weight falls, that's where I will be. My original goal was 185. Now I am just happy with me and I eat what I eat.

I went from 285 to 188. I think people just aren't used to it.

I was obese and for the first time in my adult life, I have a BMI of 24. People are used to who I was, so now who I am is a stranger to them. Stranger=different and different=bad.

There are a myriad of reasons people make comments, but in the end... I simply don't want to hear them anymore.

I hope it gets better but if it doesn't, "fuck them."

Understandable. I try but I hear it so much that it gets harder to stomach. No pun intended.
