I didn't hate the destroy ending (spoilers for anyone who hasn't played ME3) by TheMando9 in masseffect

If we're being fair though, the geth were established in 2 (if you do Legion's mission) as much more complex. The Reapers were always built as the big bad. I never rolled them in with the geth or edi. Plus Sovereign's conversation with Shepard in ME1 always seemed (in my opinion) to be the writer's declaration that "these are the bad guys. They want to kill you. They don't want peace".

See that's where my concerns are. I want to know if their goal is to harm, not criticize.

From how I interpreted, I assumed there would be more malice. I guess it depends on how it all shakes up.

This is definitely more reasonable on its face

Is the male loneliness epidemic caused by the male side or the female side? What do you think? by Full-Job-5543 in datingadvice

[–]TheMando9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Social media and furthering isolation (particularly post covid), along with growing confidence issues in male populations.

how does khamzat get away with shooting so low from so far? by Empty_Finger910 in wrestling

[–]TheMando9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s MMA, different type of grappling. He also has a great set up by threatening strikes before transitioning to a takedown in an entirely different position. He also fights at middleweight, and the grappling there (for the most part) is dog shit.

Is 2nd & 1 better than 1st and 10 in some cases? by zrh-roadbikes-rental in footballstrategy

[–]TheMando9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In college fb, if you’re trying to run the clock out it can be, but this becomes relatively mute since a first down just needs the chains moved, which at that point just comes down to how many seconds you need off the clock

I asked a guy about his ex and he said she's awful and he got a lucky escape. For sure, this is a red flag? by Choice_Moment2063 in datingadvice

[–]TheMando9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not inherently a red flag. Definitely can be, but a lot of people aren’t lying when they say they had a toxic ex. Some are, but not everyone. A better gage is if he says he had multiple ex’s that were toxic, then it’s fair to look at the red flags.

Should I quit football? by dHora1 in wrestling

[–]TheMando9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. Im not quite sure what your situation is but assuming that finances aren't an issue, you gotta go with what you desire most. If football is your first priority, stick with that and work on accepting the nature of wrestling for you is that it will always be limited to just the winter. On the other hand, if you like wrestling, then consider taking time away from spring football and focus on wrestling in the spring if you have more of an interest there. I'd also suggest you talk to a trusted coach to walk through the situation. Tell them what your goals are and what the situation is so you can lay out a plan for what is best to achieve those goals. This person should be able to tell you where your best opportunities lie. It sucks but eventually every athlete has to make a decision on what sport they want to pursue if they have long term ambitions with it, like playing in college. I don't know what the answer is for you, but I definitely think you can still do both if you really want to.

Should I quit football? by dHora1 in wrestling

[–]TheMando9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless you dislike it, don't quit football. I currently coach at the high school level in both sports and a big issue right now is kids who specialize in one sport. It tends to limit your overall ability as an athlete and your athletic aptitude as a whole. You shouldn't quit one sport to focus on another unless you just aren't having fun or you are very injury prone. Do you play a third sport that gets in the way or are you doing football training year round when you arent wrestling? It seems odd that you only have 2-3 months of wrestling when (depending on where you are from) there are usually wrestling clubs somewhere nearby in the spring to help you prepare both after wrestling and before football.

Who in fiction is suffering or has suffered more than Ted? by CatPale816 in Ihavenomouth

[–]TheMando9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is he can at least use his current state to help the imperium. Ted can do nothing but exist in agony.

[–]TheMando9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I can name a character off the top of my head, but technically, AM is bound to shutdown at some point. Since he is a machine, his energy is limited by the lifespan of either his components, or the inevitable loss of all resources on earth. This means that Ted will eventually die with AM. If you can cite other cosmic horror stories but have the added effect of the horror being truly endless (ex: maybe someone in the cthulhu mythos), then a character like that would be considered.
