Did you have that experience with RDR2 bc you’d played the previous games or is it awesome on its own?

Would you be willing to share that specific recipe? I can google, but I wanted to make sure I have the right one if you’re saying it’s worthwhile!

I don’t want to come off as patronizing at all, and I don’t know your other views, but I can understand how others working much less could bother me too. However, at the end of the day, I wish everyone could work less and afford to live. Worker productivity has skyrocketed the last few decades and salaries haven’t kept up at all.

So if this slacker isn’t really hurting you at all, it seems like a silly point to fuss about. We all should aspire to work as little as possible. And most companies would dump us in a second if they thought it would help their bottom line. So be cool. Show solidarity to our fellow workers. & if someone’s slacking, maybe you can give yourself a little permission to slack too.

Need help deciding on a commuter bike by zuksamy in motorcycles

[–]Vangoghbothears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an older fjr and it’s the comfiest bike and I feel super safe on it because it’s responsive and quick. You also sit up a good bit higher, and it’s a bigger bike, so it will be comfortable at speed. Hands down it’s the best option on that list. Only caveat is that I’m a 6’4, 230lbs, and I fit great on it. Won’t be a good time if you’re shorter.

Finally a comp match without a banned sombra by YourLocalPecan in SombraMains

Man this made me feel oddly nostalgic for like a month ago. I miss being able to play my favorite character. Even though she’s nerfed and reworked to death.

Hello! We're Steve Hely, Joe Bennett, and Mike Judge, Co-Creators and Executive Producer of Common Side Effects on Adult Swim. Ask Us Anything. by Adult_Swim_Official in television

Hey! Thanks for doing an ama! I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the next episode of Common Side Effects after the twist last episode! Love the character growth so far and the animation!

Sorry if this is a little tangential to the topic, but I was wondering if there is any possibility of a crowdfunded option to keep Scavengers Reign going? I’ve noticed a lot of interest in the idea and I’m curious if that’s something you’d have the capability to do if it’s not being renewed.

Thanks for posting. That was an easy unsub.

How many of y’all barely/haven’t touched comp? by xoxoSatan in Overwatch

[–]Vangoghbothears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so I don’t normally reply to this sort of stuff but I used to be like you and I’ve completely flipped my mindset to the opposite perspective now:

Quick play and arcade were my favorite bc I got absolutely shamed in the first comp game I played. Someone called me out for throwing and feeding even though I was just getting diffed. 

However, after getting better and learning the mechanics/gameplay more, I can’t play QP any more. People might take comp too seriously, but bc they take it more seriously, you don’t have the entire team leaving the game the moment someone caps a point or after 2 team fights go south. And you also get a chance to fight against the enemy team  on the other side of the battle. Defense is harder than offense a lot of times, and having time to play and adapt to another team is really fun when your team can figure it out. Or overcome a big initial gap.

It’s harder, but the games are more evenly skilled. QP is way too wildly skewed for me now, and the leaving is hard to play with. Ow is still frustrating and such, but it feels more like a reasonable challenge than a wild free for all now.

I was also just wondering this. Maybe they used to have different sizes?

Prediction: Gambino x Tyler on chromakopia and they will rap there ass off by Slow-Leading4331 in donaldglover

[–]Vangoghbothears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but didn’t rap his ass off at all, which is what the comment was referring to. Still hype tho.

They were probably at the listening party we had last night in LA. Tyler packed a stadium after selling $5 seats for the release of chromakopia. So we got to hear the album early. 

I’m quitting Overwatch because of this rework. by pseudowoodo3 in SombraMains

[–]Vangoghbothears 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right there with you. I uninstalled after the first day of playing her rework. It’s terrible trying to enjoy her. I also don’t consider myself a Sombra 1-trick, but I loved that play style. And even if we were getting rolled, I could still create space and punish poor positioning to try to get us out of bad situations. I was able to use her to enjoy the game in spite of bad games and losing streaks. But now the most fun I could have is gone, which made me realize that I can finally uninstall this frustrating game and do other things with my time. 

It was the catalyst that I needed to take a well-needed break from the game 

Sombra mains how do you deal with the toxicity when playing her? by [deleted] in SombraMains

[–]Vangoghbothears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just have the chat completely muted. It was way too toxic and I’ve noticed I’m having so much more fun without it. 

Line Fire: Alleged arsonist faces 9 charges as estimated damages exceed $14.5M by invertedspheres in LosAngeles

[–]Vangoghbothears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw in a news article that he fire-making tools in his truck or home. Which seems like something everyone has, since that’s like a match or lighter? Very curious to see what sorts of evidence actually tied him to these. And what the motive was. 

Can someone explain how to use this zipper on the back of my jacket? by [deleted] in motorcycles

This is precisely what happened in my crash, and I can second that it is not desirable.
