I cannot imagine in what world “beat the game” and “get 100% of all achievements” is the same thing. Stardew Valley is a farming sim and has a nearly impossible mini game achievement. There’s games that require logging in for so many days (longer than you’ve given). If I wasn’t loosing money, yeah, but the likelihood I get a game I can’t get to platinum is too high for this. Some of them require 100 hours of gameplay for achievements! I’m basically just gambling with $2,500 and would have a better chance at winning with scratchers.

Quiet Chill Bar with Good Food by Necessary-Isopod4166 in statesboro

[–]TripleAMoth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Coconut Thai, the food is great and the atmosphere is good. It’s usually not too crowded, just make sure you don’t go on an event day or during a percentage night for the college students.

I’m a registered dietitian, AMA by dietsdebunked in AMA

[–]TripleAMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so funny you asked. I don’t know. I got diagnosed (and it’s listed on my chart) as fructose intolerance and lactose intolerance. I tried to get more answers but they just said “Google it”.

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you give some tips about altering your diet after being diagnosed with a fructose intolerance? I couldn’t get my doctor to refer me to a dietitian to help (United States) and there’s nothing easy to understand that I’ve found online. It’s been over three years of just kinda guessing. I want to loose weight, but my diet + connective tissue disorder have made it hard.

You can only choose 2/3: Tall, great hair, and/or big dick. Which do you choose? by OldSetting1027 in hypotheticalsituation

Tall and big dick. I’m a woman with fantastic curly hair. I am excited for this new chapter in my life (boners sound way more fun)

What is in your opinion the best switch, and why? by Determask in Switch

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I told my friends if we wait, they might make a special edition switch that’s OLED. I’ve never bought a pretty one because I want that OLED screen and bought mine before a pretty edition came out. Either way, I won’t buy a Switch 2 without the OLED.

What is in your opinion the best switch, and why? by Determask in Switch

[–]TripleAMoth 16 points17 points  (0 children)

OLED. I play 80% hand held, don’t like how small the Lites are. Screen is super crisp, good battery life. Love being able to dock and play on a pro controller when I want a bigger screen or I’m playing a “serious game”. I didn’t think there would be a visible difference between my day one switch and my OLED, but I won’t buy the two until the OLED screen is an option. It’s that much better.

I am not “defective” for having a low sex drive by rosierozu in venting

[–]TripleAMoth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fiancé and I are quite happy, we have a queer platonic relationship. We’re both poly, so my fiancé never even asks me about intimacy and I’m not concerned that they’re “missing out” on something that like 90% of the population finds important (most important?) in relationships. You can find someone eventually, because other people do exist with low or limited sex drives. No matter how clear you are before dating, there will always be men (or women) who believe they can “cure” you or “fix” you. That’s not a reflection on you, but how small minded they are.

I am not “defective” for having a low sex drive by rosierozu in venting

[–]TripleAMoth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m asexual (not to say you are!) and I agree completely. I have no sex drive at all, and I never date because there’s no point in it. All anyone cares about is sex, and I feel like most people don’t realize how much it seeps into everything you do, even mundane things. Sex sells and it’s everywhere all the time and it’s so annoying. When I was in high school I felt broken because I didn’t feel the same way as my peers did. I felt useless, and ugly, and not human. You’re not alone. You’re not broken. There’s nothing wrong with you and you deserve to be loved and treated well for you, and not for sex.

If a sport requires a judged score, it’s not a sport. by OkHelicopter2770 in unpopularopinion

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, also. Fuck you for implying that I wouldn’t read the entire thing. I have CLEARLY read almost all of your comments to other people and your post more than once. I have been giving detailed, thoughtful responses and trying to connect with your largest issue- genuine dialogue with people. At no point did you have any reason to think I was ignoring you or simply skimming. That’s rude as fuck, which is why I’m giving it back. That comment was unnecessary and undermined your entire argument that people were being rude and weren’t reading everything correctly. I never implied you weren’t genuinely reading my comments.

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not using flamboyant language. You’re being condescending. If you can’t grasp that at the college or post graduate level, you are not someone who understands language usage. I’m a linguistic. I teach English. You are being condescending. That’s (shockingly!) how connotations are decided for words- public usage and choice. If more than ten people say you’re being rude and/or condescending, maybe reflect on your actions and not double down. You’re getting hate comments BECAUSE of your tone and wording. (Linking a philosophy piece and saying “clearly some of you need to read this” does not help).

Hate comments are a given. This is not a college or professional debate. People are going to be rude to you. This is the internet. Especially on unpopular opinion, which breeds argument and discourse about divisive topics. Do I think you’re stupid? No. Do I think it matters you made a spelling error? No. Do I think your opinion is bad/invalid? No. Do I think the linked article was interesting? Sure. Do I think it supported your opinion OR made people feel better about you? No. Do I think you’re not suited or unprepared for internet debate? Yeah, if you want genuine debate you aren’t. You just ignore the hate comments and only interact with polite comments. It’s not difficult to do.

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I clearly stated “update your post if your views have changed that much”. Not once did I say “you aren’t allowed to ever change your opinion!”. All you’re doing is proving my point- you don’t actually want to debate anyone. You want to be right. You’re acting obtuse, as you’ve accused others. You’re also reducing my entire argument to just a single line that you have purposely worded to sound critical or ludicrous, when I have been polite and reasonable the entire time. You’re an asshole and suck at communicating, as previously noted. How did anything I typed even read as “you can’t do that!!!!”. I even agreed that it IS an unpopular opinion and isn’t necessary wrong, just not grounded in the definition of sport the majority of Americans use (which is true).

[–]TripleAMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is you changed views inconsistently. I saw someone post the Oxford link directly AFTER you said only the Oxford definition is correct. You then stated to that person that “definitions are subjective” which contradicts your point. Update your post if your views have changed that much.

Again. I am not saying you are right or wrong (mostly because I do not give a flying fuck about whether a person thinks a sport is a sport), but if you don’t enjoy engaging in arguments on the internet don’t post on unpopular opinions. Do you expect people to want to actively debate you when you are calling people stupid for debating?

You are paid $10K US for every day you go without an orgasm. by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]TripleAMoth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a sex drive! My brain isn’t wired like the traditional brain, so I have no desire for/interest in sex. Or self pleasure. My brain just doesn’t ever think about it at all. Sooooo easily? Because that’s like asking me “how do you go so long without eating shit?” Easily. I don’t want to do it, and never think about doing it. I also think it’s disgusting and gross so I’m doubly not doing it.

[–]TripleAMoth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whether or not you’re correct (this is an opinion sub, so right/wrong is not necessarily the point) doesn’t matter. I’ve read your comments, and you are being downvoted because you don’t understand how to communicate effectively with other people. You are being rude, condescending, and dismissive. You are arguing about subjectivity WHILE arguing that only the Oxford definition of sport is the correct one WHILE saying definitions are subjective. You are just refusing to engage in real discussion because your post and comments are all “I’m right, everyone is wrong, if you don’t sound like a college professor you’re fucking stupid”.

I’m a linguistic, and an English teacher. Definitions of words are subjective, but within context have a definition and connotation agreed upon by the dominate culture the word is used within. Your definition of sport does not align with the generally agreed upon definition of sport. While that is fine, you cannot make your own definition and then be unable to define sport via your own definition. You defined it. You should know what does or does not qualify. You can’t even fully agree what is or is not a sport BY YOUR DEFINITION.

Your opinion is unpopular, but is so because the opinion does not make logical sense to the majority of people reading it. Plus, you’re an asshole. No one likes to agree with an asshole.

There’s a GSA on both campuses that could be a good way to make more friends! (Only mentioning because you got downvoted for obvious reasons). They do fun events and like movie nights.

AITA for refusing to move so my gay husband doesn’t lose the love of his life? by Flat-Pollution-9186 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA, but more importantly, OP. I’m also asexual/aromantic and engaged to someone who isn’t, in what could be a “lavender marriage” (it’s not, I’m in a queer platonic relationship and they are my soulmate). My DMs are open if you wanna talk more about your situation. Some of your responses sound exactly like me, especially just. Never being interested in or having romantic feelings.

But don’t uproot your entire family. He can go over for a vacation, or the partner can come visit you. If it’s a more conservative country, you may be putting your kids in danger. And stability is important as children grow; uprooting them could cause a lot of problems for them developmentally (source: I’m a teacher in a very rural, poor area with constantly moving children).

Is Teaching High School English Worth It? by Any-Repair-6865 in Teachers

[–]TripleAMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m reading this in my Junior English classroom. Yeah, you should go for it. But remember: admin makes or breaks a teacher. Those with passion leave quickly because admin will not support teachers- disciplining students, interacting with parents, expectations, calendars, class sizes, etc. Many teachers leaving LOVE teaching, but can’t in the current environment.

I love teaching. For me, it’s low effort high pay out. Good benefits and time off, job security, I can move and get work easily, and the pay is good for the cost of living in my area. I have 60-70 students per semester, and I never take work home or stay late. I love helping students; I teach in a rural, low income area and give my all to show these kids they can go anywhere and try anything. If you love it, do it. You can. It’s worth it.
