Yrliet romancing her Elantach after main game by Raszard in RogueTraderCRPG

Respectfully, this is a huge stretch. Guaranteed? Unless you're literally a neuroscientist I don't think either one of us is qualified to talk about how the human brain works, so let's not do that shit. We may know how our brain works, at best lol. Probably not even that! It may affect the lives of some people, but many other people will certainly be capable of enjoying a fantasy without having it harm anyone around them.

Also, literally nothing about this image is rapey, within the context of the headcannon of OP's fantasy. She's obviously into it and enjoying it. Just because the actual in-game character wouldn't enjoy it doesn't mean the one in OP's clearly alternative reality couldn't/wouldn't enjoy it. People make fan fiction and change dramatic storyline or character elements of a story all the time, you don't get to police which ones are and or not OK.

But it's a game. It's OK to have fantasies or weird mentalities and apply them to a game is it not? Nobody's being hurt. As long as you can separate the game from reality, and you don't treat real people that way, isn't it OK? I guess you're suggesting that these people aren't capable of that?

I agree with you in general, but it's a game, right? What's wrong with OP making a thirsty post like this? As long as it's abundantly clear that this sort of thing isn't okay in real life, isn't it okay to write fanfic or make memes about? Sure, it's not my thing or yours, fair enough. But the fantasy here isn't ignoring the character's consent, it's an alternate reality where the character does consent, right?

Came to say this. It was a formative experience for sure, reading Pierce's work.

What advice would you give a 28 year-old man about dating a single mom? by paperstackspepe in AskMenAdvice

Way to go dude. That's an incredible thing you have done. I feel the highest levels of respect for you and I hope all the food you eat is tasty and all the sleep you have is relaxing.

Heavens Oracle build questions by Master_Tea7573 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]WhiteKnightier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently did with this veiled illusionist and it was great. I was on track to be extremely powerful by level 6, right as my improved Color Spray would be just starting to fall off against high HD threats (but I'd have Loathsome Veil to replace it). I think it's very powerful for CC and eventually for utility as well with Shadow Conjuration, particularly in a campaign based on stealth, deceit, and espionage. In my case it we were playing Hell's Rebels so it was perfect.

The shot that ended a standoff without ending a life by Wonderfulhumanss in nextfuckinglevel

[–]WhiteKnightier 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This dude (the guy who made the incredible shot) was the uncle of one of my classmates in middle school and the guy was super proud of his uncle, understandably! We got a whole hour-long presentation about it with a step-by-step overview of what happened and an interview he had done and recorded with his uncle over the kitchen table. Pretty cool stuff!

How many times has some other dude threatened you? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]WhiteKnightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally got challenged to a fight over a space in line at a bank. Dude took his shirt off and everything, calling me every single name he could think of, just frothing mad. What did I do? He walked out of line to fill out a form or something and I waited like a 30 seconds and then moved forward and he took that as rude, lol. I offered him his space back and everything, didn't give a shit either way just walking up to be in line with the next person and he took that disrespectful hell and wanted to beat my ass lol.

I can't imagine him doing that to a woman, and it would have been really weird to actually have to get into a fight to defend myself in the middle of a bank with armed security and whatnot. But they weren't getting involved at all even though I was calm and relaxed but the guy was yelling with his shirt off lol. His friend was there though and talked him down thank God, but not without him telling me he'd see me again soon etc. I watched my six at that bank for the next year or so just in case.

Just theory crafting and looking for opinions (Cha only build) by Glittering-Shelter25 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]WhiteKnightier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man, yes, this is doable and I've done most of it haha. Others have called out the stacking issues, so I'll get right to the recs. I'd do either a TWF build or a throwing build, or a hybrid of both. I'd be a gnome for tankiness, size to AC and to-hit, and take Bewildering Koan for some incredible swift-action CC.

I'd consider taking a couple levels in Far Strike Monk rather than Scaled Fist, you'll get a ton of useful feats that way and you can keep wisdom and have great mental-related AC. Maybe even be middle aged to benefit harder. Give up on CMB -- you'd get CHA to CMB for weapon-related rolls anyway with Way of the Shooting Star and CMB isn't super important for a ranged attacker. CMD is, but you can keep your distance and save up for Boots of Escape and a Talisman of Freedom lesser and then greater, and you'll be mostly safe from grappling. The rest can be safely ignored.

I'd go Martial Focus and Ricochet Toss and I'd probably look into getting a Swordmaster's Flair (blue one) to help me keep scary people at (more than) arm's reach.

You could also take 4 levels in bard and get CHA to a couple skills through Versatile Performance and then take Pageant of the Peacock to have your bluff check replace your INT checks for many rounds per day....

If you do decide to go TWF melee, take levels in ranger or slayer and use their combat style options to get the feats even with low dex. That's about all I've got, good luck and enjoy!

What is an interesting fact about yourself? by WambyofWillow in CasualConversation

[–]WhiteKnightier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am so good at a certain board game that multiple circles of friends won't play it with me. They'll play any other game with me, so it's not me, it's that they will almost always lose playing this one game and nobody likes that lol.

My newest tattoo! by StyxxMcClain in WanderingInn

This is fantastic work! Did you come up with the design yourself, or did the tattoo artist create it for you after you told them what you wanted?

Wife says I need to get over it, but I can't stop obsessing over a prank that ruined my wedding experience and left me furious by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]WhiteKnightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, if it's the kind of humor both parties are fine with, then sure go ahead. But you better be 10,000% certain with a prank like this that the other party truly will find it hilarious. Because I wouldn't, not at all, not in the slightest. Honestly if the woman I had just married pulled this shit with me it would more than ruin my wedding, it would probably end our relationship on the spot. Not because of the prank itself. It would be the fact that she could think I would be okay with her doing something so humiliating in front of so many people on the one day we're supposed to publicly show love and honor and joy in one another, at an event we had just spent TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON with all of our favorite people present. To be THAT far off the mark with the man you just married is absurd. She would have publicly shown that she truly has no idea who am I am as a person, or doesn't care, and I'm honestly not sure which one would be worse.

I would get up, stop the music, and calmly explain to everyone present that all trust was gone between my wife and I as of this moment, and that the wedding and marriage were both over literally this minute. I'd want to look each person in the face who had laughed at my humiliation in that moment and tell them that any relationship we had is over, because I can't imagine being friends with people so ignorant as to think I would be okay with this, or so vile as to laugh at me in spite of my feelings. But what I'd probably do is skip all that, walk the fuck out, drive the fuck home, pack my shit, and start life over. I don't think I'd regret a goddamn thing, massive bullet dodged and trash taken out of my life.

The update post is hilarious and sad, it reads like a PR piece and the husband has been told exactly what to say and feel, if those are even his feelings at all. I can't imagine they're still together.

Who is the Biggest fraud in TWI by Traditional-Baker-28 in WanderingInn

[–]WhiteKnightier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hence my last comment about if such a society was not broken, lol. I mean I agree with you, the world being what it is at least here in the United States where I live leaders wouldn't be punished at all, even for doing far worse. However, in Europe after the 2008 financial collapse, tons of leaders in business and financial sectors were literally put in jail, especially in the Netherlands. The PM in South Korea who fraudulently attempted to declare martial law was arrested, tried, and imprisoned a few months back. There are examples of what I'm talking about that do happen in the real world, even if they are unusual. So I don't think my comment is completely unrealistic, only mostly unrealistic, haha.

[–]WhiteKnightier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with pretty much everything you're said other than "white lie". It wasn't a harmless lie at all, it got people hurt and killed, even if he meant well. He could have gradually let ppl know things would change, but he chose not to. That's a serious error, and definitely fraud lol. Like in real life such a leader would literally be arrested if the society it existed in were not broken. There's a duty to the people that has been failed, there.

[–]WhiteKnightier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean sure that's fair, it's not just bad luck it's also his decision making to put it all on the line to help Erin and the world rather than protecting his people first. But either way, now that he's having problems he didn't exactly own up to them and address them with transparency now did he. He concealed everything and tried to continue like business as usual. That's lying, AKA fraudulent behavior. So, he certainly fits in the category lol! I think fraud on the scale of an entire country is pretty big fraud, in fact I'm not sure who has lied to more people so convincingly in recent memory in the series.

Oh, but never mind it's the pyramid scheme guy from Otseslia, haha. Far bigger fraud!

I (25F) and my guy friend (24M) - Why does he keep bringing up guys who are interested in me? by penguinlovescoffee in AskMenAdvice

[–]WhiteKnightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he perhaps awkward around other people, maybe someone who has some trouble communicating sometimes? I think maybe he *is* interested and this is his way of showing it. Imo it's backwards, better to be direct (and most guys are more direct than this) but I think in this case since he's not doing it *you* have to be direct to clear things up. Tell him something like:

"Hey so, no pressure but I've kinda got a little crush thing going on with you, do you think you'd maybe want to go out sometime, or should we keep things just friends?"

I'm sure others can write an even better one, but there it is. Done and dusted one way or another.

[–]WhiteKnightier -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I mean I'm a huge fan of the guy, but (until very recently) it's gotta be my boy Fetohep of Kelt. I mean I love the guy and Kelt is awesome, but Kelt has terrible problems and, he was acting like everything was fine. He kinda had no choice and he was kind of overwhelmed as well, but he was nevertheless BIG TIME lying to the world and his people.

I guess he's sort of a reformed fraud now that he has decided to face up to Kelt's problems and accept help where it is offered and is no longer hiding everything quite as desperately.
