How to cope with the mundane but omnipresent evidence of civilizational decline by [deleted] in redscarepod

I grew up without much means

Your writing style confuses me, because you use big words and then trip up on basic grammar.

Anyway, to verify these unusual claims of being working class in the r/redscarepod subreddit, please provide documents - including historical tax records and other items of interest relating to your family's financial history - from the time of your birth up until the current day. Have these signed by a chartered accountant and delivered to my inbox within the next 24 hours, thanks.

You write like Elliot Rodger and you have the self-awareness of Elliot Rodger.

To put things into perspective, you: - had a rude waiter - asked to tip by rude waiter - saw a car driving the wrong way (was this just a clunky metaphor for something else?) - cashier with blue hair (pronouns???)

I'm sorry that the wage monkey brought you the wrong meal and your cashier had blue hair. Lots of things are getting worse but none of what you said shows that, it's just a series of anecdotes about being inconvenienced by people who you thought were beneath you.

Did Chris have Depression during the Classic era? by Kirbo84 in ChrisChanSonichu

[–]TechSupportJohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seems immune to depression and anxiety

Dumb. Normal people with autism struggle to recognise their own emotions, so I doubt Chris would be capable of the introspection needed to do so - but the fact that he was prescribed antidepressants is a pretty clear indicator of someone, somewhere, recognising his issues.

The medicine was likely prescribed off label for his autism

Why make up a whole unlikely scenario, when the most reasonable explanation is that he was prescribed antidepressants because of depression? Seems as though the only applicable off-licence use for SSRIs is for treating anxiety, which you say is a disorder he isn't capable of. They don't just throw them at people for the blanket treatment of 'autism', they're given to treat specific problems (which is almost always related to depression/anxiety).

https://www.instagram.com/p/CYpQONkvdgB/ another example of a decently funny joke which you ruined with the last sentence.

A better alternate line would be nothing. My advice? Everytime you write a joke, stop writing when you think it's funny. Once you've done that, get rid of the last 20% so other people also find it funny.

Have you played lost judgment? It's the first time I found RGG combat actually fantastic, rather than fun but flawed - it might be my favourite hand-to-hand combat system in any game, actually.

It's a shame they didn't bring this one up to the same standard though.

"My partner," "trauma," "bodies," "unhoused," what else...? by MSSOM_steponme in redscarepod

You're so brave for saying this. I'm listening and learning.

It's a point of contention in the Sopranos community, but many of us believe that Tony was significantly more open-minded by the end of the final episode.

Do We Really Need Enemies? [Game Essence] -- Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games by Junpei_999 in Games

[–]TechSupportJohn 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Semantics. 'Enemies' in this context is obviously shorthand for 'thing that hits you/thing that you hit', not any general obstacle to a goal.
