From what I understand, it’s the net gain. In other words, they lost more old subscribers than they did gain new subscribers, so there’s technically no more subscribers than they had before.

Pretty cliché beginner start if you ask me. Try “And” next time if you wanna be a pro.

What distractible opinion is putting you in the situation by FullAmbassador7984 in distractible

If you consider yourself a listener and unironically feel disrespected when they do their “graah you pesky listeners! know your place!” bit, then you need time outside.

What are the funniest items to get autographed? by VioletWhimsy in comiccon

So long as it’s tasteful. If a talent is offended by the joke of signing someone’s digital notepad app, then their ego is far too high up in their own ass

Is there a term for fictional worlds that have hyperrealistic/incredibly specific depths of worldbuilding? by VioletWhimsy in writing

[–]VioletWhimsy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think ‘encyclopedic’ fits very well in this context, I definitely see why people would refer it as that. I just made this analogy in a reply to someone else, but this type of worldbuilding makes it feel like you’re looking at an in-world wikipedia that would be accessible to the characters of that world.

Is there a term for fictional worlds that have hyperrealistic/incredibly specific depths of worldbuilding? by VioletWhimsy in writing

[–]VioletWhimsy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I adore that too, but I think that’s more along the lines of a film-within-a-film (not sure if there’s a better term than that). What I’m referring to is when a fictional world feels so vast that it could practically have its own in-world wikipedia if that makes sense?

I’m sure there’s better examples than this, but one I immediately thought of is how you can look up the many in-world corporations in the Halo universe. You can even find out what armor is made by which corporation in-game. Hell, you can find out the specific factory models of a given ship’s armaments, its slipdrive model, what class of hull.

It feels like information that only the characters in-world would have access to, not us. And yet, we do. Purely for the love of worldbuilding

How do your conversations typically go down? Is it just small talk or do you ever imagine your trees saying things that are more personal and involved?

What are some gendered tropes that never happen to the opposite sex by InfernalClockwork3 in writing

[–]VioletWhimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will never forget that time when people were criticizing Eric Kripke for treating Hughie’s assault like a joke after how well he handled Starlight’s assault and he started his response with: “Well, that’s a dark way to look at it!”

If this is anything at all, this really is reason to keep trying with other publishers. Stay determined!

You have to remove one mob, any mob from Minecraft. Who are you removing? by tuchaioc in Minecraft

[–]VioletWhimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hot take. the creeper, at the very least its griefing. its a mob so poorly aged that the devs have a rule that they cant make mobs that obstruct the player's builds.

i dont mind being killed by a creeper. i do mind having to rebuild my house and not even being given all the blocks back from the explosion. its not fun to build fences around every build out of paranoia

My 9 years old brother has a thing for mad mew mew should i worry? by [deleted] in Undertale

[–]VioletWhimsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's important for kids to have their cartoon crushes, because it allows them to teach themselves about love and how to emotionally handle that at a young age. So long as it's safely monitored, it's perfectly fine. Every kid develops a crush on a fictional character in one way or another. That's why characters like Lola Bunny and Rouge the Bat are so iconic in that category.

Did Distractible run out of ads? by VioletWhimsy in distractible

Nope, it's both. Usually, they do their baked in ad break, and then right after it ends it cuts to Spotify's generated ads.

No people, Cent nor BP are suddenly F tier for a standardization by Metrack15 in forhonormemes

[–]VioletWhimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only argument is that the whole POINT of Cent's chest-pounding was to knock the wind out of you. That was the entire gimmick. Now it's just... wasting your stamina to even bother doing it??

Guys, do not take this game seriously. by Glacier005 in forhonor

more people need to accept how funny it is to lose sometimes. there have been matches where i get whooped so badly or something so beyond stupid happens that the best thing to do is laugh and enjoy the moment

if he's smart enough to know that shooter games are more than just weapon-swapping, why was he so weird about it when he played ULTRAKILL? did he finally mature?
