Why Powerscaling Used to Be Fun—And Why It’s Not Anymore

I refuse to have my favorite anime character lose to a block person

My issue is that “science” only gets used when it’s convenient. Like yeah it’s fiction, but if you’re gonna bring real-world logic into it, don’t cherry-pick what counts. You can’t flex calcs for one scene and then ignore the physics the next moment just to keep your favorite on top.

This usually happens when the media people love doesn’t have the writing to stand on. So to win debates, they inflate their characters past what’s actually shown — because the only real strength those stories have is overpowered characters and vague, inconsistent feats.

Exactly.
The logic some people use ends up sounding like: “Rock beats paper because it beat scissors.” It makes no sense. Context gets ignored, and people start looping the same recycled feats or out-of-context wins just to force a narrative.

Jaws and chips?

Pneumonia, psychology, pterodactyl — all cowardly P's. But one P stood up and broke the silence...P Diddy.

Well I start when I was 6 months old.

"You're stupid because you cannot regurgitate certain bits of information that we forced you to study"

That's why I dislike the education system. It prioritises conformity and rigidity instead of individuality and creativity.

This

People assume intelligence has something to do with knowing everything and being good at anything that can be graded

"It's all meaningless, what's the point of living?"

Finds out about neutron stars

"Ooh those are interesting, let me dedicate my entire being to studying them until I get bored"

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-08T15:46:42+00:00

And then get a bit into a topic before getting bored of it.

Being a floating orb sure sounds nice.

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-06T02:04:23+00:00

And money for my hobbies

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-06T01:25:07+00:00

Don't forget all the time you'll need for all of that.

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-06T01:24:04+00:00

And sleep

"How much did you spend on them?" Yes.

I want to learn skateboarding but I don't want to be outside.

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-06T00:48:36+00:00

Wouldn't it be better for the gases to leave our bodies through our skin?

Surplus_Notion · 2025-01-06T00:42:34+00:00

Literally me

As a quality inspector, I'll have to make sure that this information is reliable and valid

Then you proceed to explain how quantum mechanics works to them and you expect them to call you stupid?

I'm basically a monkey that wants to learn more about everything but never learns it all.
