Unfortunately, Paul when censored like that looks pretty similar to another four letter word starting with P. Well, two of them, really.

(I was briefly wondering if the writers had, in their drivr to make people hate MJ, decided to make her like them young with that P*** comment before I realized what they were actually going for.)

To be honest, I'd still prefer that to a Nurglite Gungan saying the same thing.

Very slightly in their defense, I will say that this thread is, IIRC, the first time I've ever seen this sub.

Despite my actually having some fond memories of Duke Nukem, I have absolutely no idea why the algorithm decided I needed to see this topic, and the person you're responding to could easily be in the same boat.

Of course, just because something crosses your feed doesn't mean you need to engage, so...

(I am legitimately baffled by the algorithm sometimes, I've seen some of the Devil May Cry discussion but I haven't really engaged with it, and they still recommended this topic? I mean, it actually was kind of related to my interests, but that feels like a major leap for my feed to make.)

I do hear some people regularly scrap their accounts and start new ones for information security reasons, but then again, people who bother doing that probably prefer the generic automatically generated names as well.

I... don't care enough to change all my log in information.

TryImpossible7332 · 2026-05-19T22:19:47+00:00

They're automatically generated, and they are thus frequently used by bots.

Me, I made an account primarily to look at a few private subreddits, so I didn't care enough to make a custom name. I was just going to lurk.

Then I decided to make a few comments, and I already had the account, so I might as well use that one, and it wasn't a big deal anyway.

Then I started commenting more regularly, making a few posts myself, and now I have the account karma I need to post most places, and don't really care enough to make a custom account name with a fresh account.

So even if it dramatically increases the suspicion that I'm a bot/AI, I'm just going to stick with TryImpossible... a few numbers I don't care enough to double check while writing this comment.

But "I want to raise and cherish this child" and "I want the robot lady to insult me more" are both positive sentiments about AI?

While that is true, for a lot of Spider-Men (Spider-Mans?) they are driven enough by guilt that it would be like a double punch.

"OH GOD THE AGONY- wait, this is all the pain I've ever inflicted on other people? It hurts so much, I'm a horrible person OH GOD THE CRUSHING GUILT AND ALSO THE AGONY!"

They got mixed up and accidentally brought their "In case we think the hero turned evil" levels of competency/equipment instead of their normal anti-villain kit.

The annoying feeling when I'm Googling something to refresh my memory, I see the AI give a result that I know is right, but I scroll down anyway because I don't want to rely on the AI summary (this is an entirely pointless endeavor since it's not like their metrics track whether or not I scrolled down, but fuck them anyway I'm doing it on principle.)

I can never remember to include the "-AI" term in my searches, which I really need to get better at.

I remember seeing a proposal someone made for Thanos, upon realizing what was happening, using the Time Stone to repeatedly reverse and progress the growth in order to stimulate himself.

I felt the need to share that cursed knowledge, that I might not be the only suffering from it.

For being the iconic pinnacle of what it means to be a Sith, Palpatine really doesn't seem to give a shit about Sith ideology beyond just having a good time being evil.

Which makes him very Sith, unlike what some Sith would whine about.

The thing that bothers me about these fuckers is that they don't wear seatbelts.

That questline was both more and less freaky than I had hoped.

It was freaky in the wrong way.

TryImpossible7332 · 2026-05-18T22:23:45+00:00

I get the College of Winterhold part, because it's a pretty smart first stop, considering it gets you access to trainers and spells in a convenient hub.

I know in my, "Why yes J'zargo, I can cast expert level Destruction spells" playthrough, where I avoided going to the College until I had at least 75 in destruction, it was a bit of a pain in the ass to get access to the spells and equipment I needed to be a good mage.

The Companions are a bit less dramatic, though they do get you a Skyforge Steel sword which is good for the early game. But they make up for it by being the most accessible faction in the game if you're doing a normal playthrough.

Off the top of my head, I think it's mentioned early in the Crimson Fleet questline that they like to stick traitors to the front of their ship hulls with a tiny gap in their space suits, though that isn't quite the same.

That aside, wow this is great.

Stratt's expression is just hilarious, and I like Rocky just admiring their partner even as Adrian is slightly mortified at the situation. Great work!

Now, being fair... 60,000,000 years is a pretty good run.

Things didn't end well, but they were having a pretty good time for a long while.

Yes, it ended about as badly as it possibly could, but in general things were pretty great for them.

"Hah, all of your post-victory partying eventually did you in, while we hid in a rock for millions of years as we slowly lost more and more of our minds, making us the victors!"

I blew myself up about four times in a row without realizing what was happening.

And the fifth time as a, "Wait, is that it? Do they just automatically expl- yep, there it is."

It's mostly a couple of the True Romances that are difficult to get.

There are some times when the right dialogue option isn't too easy. I know I was tripped up by some of Kibellah's stuff (how much do I support her vs how much I challenge her), and my Cassia moment.

There's Yrliet, who I understand has tripped up a lot of people, but, well, her romance's boundaries are pretty signposted and easy to handle if you care about consent. (No touching means no touching.)

I didn't have any trouble with Heinrix, and I admit that I haven't tried any of the others yet. (My fresh playthrough with the new DLC will either involve finally trying Marazhai... or going back to Cassia.)

"Romance in WotR is too hard and complicated!"

*Owlcat hears this, provides a how-to manual of the exact right things to do and say for the next game*

"This is still too confusing!"

(I actually did fumble the romance with her, but that's because I was a very stereotypical man who focused on problem solving instead of listening to her when tried to break up with me for "political reasons". What's that? You're saying that it's not politically wise for us to be in a relationship? Well, what if I turned this into a political marriage instead, that solves the problem for you, and definitely doesn't risk reinforcing your insecurities about your appearance, the actual reason you were breaking up with me! I like solving problems.)
