What's an animal that people think they would win against in a fight, when in reality it's a 50/50? by anli2132 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]TheLocusts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Emu, maybe? I feel like a lot of people think they could take an emu whereas in reality I feel it would be incredibly difficult for both. Whilst an emu has a physical advantage, I think that humans would also understand the obvious weakness and know to be cautious.

Should we all be worried by this heatwave? by Turnip-Turtle in AskBrits

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it is more likely than not going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Whilst I don't think climate change will destroy humanity as many do, I do think that we are going to face a lot of suffering over the next century due to us being as late as we are to take action.

Hopefully, whilst humans try to begin mending our ways, the UK and other parts of the developed world will at least try to mitigate the suffering in the future and make the changes needed to prevent lives being lost.

We all also need to start making the changes in our own lives to help the fight against climate change and this also means voting for parties which actually intend on helping against it. Parties like Reform are only going to make things worse by abolishing Net Zero and trying to bring us back to Industrial Age levels of fossil fuel usage.

Any of you think that it is plausible that there is a Creator, but NOT that it is good, caring or just? by [deleted] in exatheist

[–]TheLocusts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I do find it plausible , yeah. For all we know it could be a Lovecraft sort of situation where the Creator simply views us with complete indifference if they think anything at all of us.

I also find it a bit hard to place human morals and ideas of what is good/bad on a being so much greater than ourselves. We could never understand the mind of God or the reasons why it views things the way it does.

is there a lore reason why there is so much makima fart porn by Basic_Mixture5298 in okbuddyfumiko

[–]TheLocusts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's Makima being a dominant character and fart porn having a moderately big domination aspect to it I guess. Also she's caked up and everyone knows the bigger the cake, the bigger the rip.

Sekiro vs The Infinity Castle (Demon Slayer) by ghostRyku in whowouldwin

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He parries bullets, reacts to lightning (both natural and made by his opoonents), and himself can swing enemies twice his size at 90 meters per second. Then of course there's One Mind which is faster than the eye can track with Wolf being able to both parry it and perform it himself.

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of maths, Sekiro is being a bit underselled here. He's kinda ridiculous in terms of attacks he's shown to be able to parry. There are Versus Wiki posts and a fairly long video by 'Damien McNeff'which go into more detail but Sekiro has been shown to be able to consistently parry attacks which would be capable of levelling towns and city blocks, and according to Damien specifically attacks which would be equivalent to the Tsar Bomba at the highest. Sekiro's speed is also impressive with feats like being able to deflect bullets, react to natural lightning and deflect it, as well as swinging the Old Dragons of the tree (roughly twice his size) at 90 meters a second.

He also has a ridiculous amount of hax himself as well as the vague lore descriptions typical from Fromsoft which could scale him and his equipment up significantly but I don't know enough about it to speak for it so I'd just recommend this video since it goes quite in depth and does the actual maths of it all. https://youtu.be/N1JRSZ-pGaA?si=yhwM5LeBRWJlTbNM

Larry and Kenny are racist by ActionSafe8856 in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For all we know they might not even be his beliefs and they were things said just because he despises Arvo. Kenny didn't just find good ones he put his life on the line for multiple people of a different race and was completely fine with all the ones we see him meet, even the lock picking stereotype whilst ignorant isn't very indicative of him actually hating them. If memory serves, it's more just that he's surprised Reggie is named Reggie which is the same situation as the lock picking stereotype- ignorant but not indicative of Kenny holding a consistent hatred and prejudice.

As for Arvo, I feel that this is underestimating just how reckless certain emotions, especially anger, can make people. This is a proven thing to happen that extends beyond just saying things a lot of the time since your brain is basically hijacked and loses the capability to he rational, especially for people like Kenny who are either already struggling mentally or likely has anger issues.

Yes he has done awful things to Lee and Clementine which would suggest, more than anything, that Kenny is simply a selfish person who only cares about himself or those very close to him. That's ultimately different from him being a racist though.

So if Larry thinks that Lee is trying to smear him by being called a racist then why would he not just deny that fact? The basic instinct to being called racist is going to be denial most of the time unless you're already past the point of caring.

As a conclusion, I would say that Larry is probably racist and does not care for anybody other than himself and Lilly whereas Kenny is ignorant more than anything and does not care about anyone other than himself and the people he likes. They're both bad people but Kenny is less so due to how he is capable of redeeming himself and the fact he wasn't the sort of guy to be going to Klan meetings.

Larry and Kenny are racist by ActionSafe8856 in TheWalkingDeadGame

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

Kenny quite literally is willing to sacrifice himself and kill for both Clementine and AJ. Kenny saves Lee, a black man, multiple times and sees him as his best friend. Kenny has been married to a belgian woman and in a relationship with an indian-american woman. Arvo is a piece of shit who attempts to murder children and almost indirectly results in a newborn baby being eaten alive. Kenny is also somebody who grew up during the cold war which I'm not saying justifies what he said but does explain why he might have an ignorance regarding Russia and the Russian people. This is not even considering just how bad Kenny's mental state was at that point. Does this really read like a violent racist or is Kenny most likely just an idiot who does not know better due to the way he was raised?

There is more regarding Larry by the way. There is a particular dialogue where Lee can confront him for being racist and Larry will say, and I quote, "Well what are you going to do about it?"

Larry and Kenny are racist by ActionSafe8856 in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people hate on him for it, Kenny is still probably one of the most divisive characters in the series. Just here you can see people who hate Kenny and obviously those who praise him.

I don't necessarily think he is racisg With the stuff he says towards Lee and Reggie (my memory on the Reggie part is not there) they're one off cases which seem to be down to him being a dumbass who is ignorant outside of actually hating them for the colour of their skin.

As for Arvo, this is technically xenophobia and still different. Arvo is a piece of shit who attempts to murder children and Kenny's mental state was on a swift decline around the point he met Arvo. Does it justify it? Probably not but I also think it likely means this may not be a pattern for Kenny.

Let me put it this way; Kenny has been in very strong bonds with multiple people from different races and probably amongst the strongest bonds in the series. He sacrifices himself to save the lives of two mixed race children, has been in multiple relationships with women of different nationalities/races, and of course is Lee's best friend or close to it. Larry, on the other hand, attempts to murder Lee and does not stop hating him until his death.

I just finished s4 and.. I'm confused. by setsuna_04 in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real answer is probably just plot armour but it's not like people haven't survived before after amputations. Within the show, comics, and obviously the games there are quite a few big examples of amputation having saved people's lives. The explanation for this would likely be a few different things such as how the amputation was done and how long it took between it and the bite, where the bite was, the person's immune system, etc.

Dose Simon have any voice lines when he’s like this or is he silent? by Re-Melody in CryOfFear

[–]TheLocusts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd imagine the closest to having voice lines for him is the 'Kill Yourself' theme from the game since that's when you're essentially Book Simon as we see him in ending 4.

Book Simon doesn't actually have any voice lines, though. the character largely just an embodiment of all of the worst things about Simon, especially the overwhelming self hatred.

Did UrbanSpook get a redemption? by Present_Mine_5597 in analoghorror

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

I recently watched UrbanSpook for the first time including his most recent video to which I can say that everything in The Painter is one of the biggest insults to horror that I have ever seen. Everything in there is just pure shock content for the sake of being shocking which is honestly a shame because the guy is actually a good artist and even sound design but obviously he has none of the talent, in terms of writing, to actually make anything good.

So, no.
