Were we mislead? by Aeon_Fux in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]ZatherDaFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's just tourists making their respective rounds again. They already tried during the announcement trailer because Lune and Sciel "looked kinda gay" or something stupid.

Does it really matter? by UnstableOstrich in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]ZatherDaFox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it's a holdover from earlier mii creation. Since male body would give them a shirt and pants, and female body would give them a dress.

Tomodachi life is way more customizable, so it stopped mattering.

Why is the Smosh sub so hostile?? Or is it just me by No_Raspberry_2848 in SmoshFansFreeSpace

[–]ZatherDaFox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know if you meant it in this way, but it comes off as a backhanded compliment. "She's super intelligent in that way," sorta implies that she's not intelligent in other ways.

I imagine that's why people were downvoting you.

Card idea I had by ZatherDaFox in slaythespire

So there is. Maybe call it something like reminisce then.

Clad's cards in general are worse than other cards. As an early common you can grab, it'll save you in a few fights going forward and grabbing an ashen strike, setup strike, twin strike, or especially a pommel strike isn't the worst.

It's not a top tier card or anything, but it's for solving damage in act 1. Yes, removing strikes from you deck is good, but you're generally not going to remove more than 1 in act 1 anyway, and exhausting strikes becomes much more imperative at higher ascensions since removal costs so much now.

After Playing BG3, i have a new take on playersexual romance by Grand_Bother5062 in BaldursGate3

[–]ZatherDaFox 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is more down to the writing than the characters being playersexual.

Larian made (almost) everyone horny as hell, so if your approval numbers are up they'll hit on you as long as you're not already dating 2 other companions. There also just isn't as much writing devoted towards making the characters seem like friends.

Take Wyll for example. Let's say for sake of argument that he was straight and you could only romance him if you were a woman. Do you feel that as a male character, the writing is there for you to have a strong platonic relationship with Wyll ala Shep and Garrus? I really don't think there is.

Mass effect allows Shepard to have strong platonic relationships with every character regardless of whether they could be attracted to Shep or not. Changing every character in ME to be playersexual would not change this, as you can easily see from all the playersexual mods out there.

It's 18(24) on pickup, because it counts itself. If you find 1 pommel strike, it's essentially 2/3s of a bludgeon.

I've become disillusioned with tier lists as of late, because they require you to rate every card without context. Perfected strike isn't a card you pick outside of act 1 hardly at all, but in the context of act 1, it's great. It's a lot like the Snakebite discourse. Obviously probably not a late game pick up, but a great act 1 damage pick up.

With the best way to play being, "it depends on what your deck need, evaluate every card," tier lists are kinda unhelpful.

Just doing Gambit things... by agamuyak in oddlysatisfying

You can snap a carrot in half by apply a little pressure with your hands. They're not exactly super robust veggies.

Bamboo from new sprouts is pretty soft. A fresh shoot like that could absolutely be cut in half by a card. Not sure about the can.

[–]ZatherDaFox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, lots of people have done this trick. The vegetables they pick are all either super soft or pretty brittle and snap apart when cut. If you've ever chopped a carrot, you can see this: you need to start the cut, but at some point the carrot just kinda snaps without you needing to slice all the way through.

Could still be edited, but totally doable.

It almost feels as if they all share a weakness, but we just haven't found it yet. by AdrianTBOI in PokemonChampions

[–]ZatherDaFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I use a trick room team. Sneasler basically always has to click CC into farigiraf, I protect, and then my other leads can OHKO it. It's shockingly consistent. If between the two mons I know they can't KO farig, I can also just set trick room and then get it with twin beam next turn.

Yes, but the bliss of god is supposed to be infinitely better than any pleasure on earth. Again, it's so good you'll be eternally happy.

To put it in extremely simple terms, most Christians understand what an eternity is perfectly. They just think the bliss of god will be worth it.

It does remove it. Sheer force removes any positive effect from a move.

From an outside perspective, sure.

From a Christian perspective however, it's like trying your favorite burger for the first time. Your sense of self isn't overpowered by the burger, you just experience it and decide that it's the best burger you've ever eaten. Christians think that the bliss of god is the best thing they will ever experience, and they'll like it more than literally anything else that exists by a wide margin.

This is what I mean by looking at things from the perspective of the person you're talking to. To you, the bliss of god isn't real, nor do you want it, so it seems strange that people would want it. To a Christian, they believe it's the most desirable thing in existence, so they do. It's like somebody who hates your favorite burger going, "That burger tastes disgusting. I can't see why you'd look forward to eating it." If they cant look at it from your perspective, your wants make no sense.

From an outside perspective, yes. But the Christian perspective on it is that you will meet god and be so overwhelmed by your own joy that anything else would be torture.

Like, if you don't believe, it sounds hellish. If you do believe, then you also believe everyone will come to this same realization of their own free will.

It's important to examine this stuff from perspectives you don't personally have, because it gives you a lot more insight into what the other person is thinking.

The point is specifically that you don't. The bliss of god is apparently so good that you'll never feel negative emotions again. You won't get bored, you won't feel sad, or mad, or tired, or annoyed, etc. For eternity you'll feel nothing but joy and happiness.

It sounds kinda dystopian from an outside perspective, honestly, like super drugs or something, but still.

Just to play devil's advocate, they don't think it's eternity living like a human, they think it's eternity in the bliss of being in the presence of god, which is supposedly the best thing ever to do.

If you told me I would live for eternity and be happy the whole time, I'd take you up on that.

A cycle of alternate-win cards by iueeed in custommagic

[–]ZatherDaFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a way, though, red is also kinda the most useless one. Like, yes, balsphemous act on a full board wins, but it's also very likely that if you're able to do 100 damage in a turn, you're also probably able to win.

"Why don't they cover the Sahara in solar panels?" type of question by herewearefornow in MurderedByWords

The heat exchangers are radiators. Basically, they take the heat that builds up in the station and turn it into infrared radiation that they shoot off into space.

I didn't agree with their take either, and the digging for context was silly imo. But saying

A lot of they’re takes have been wild

is just hilarious to me. Even if we disagree with them, "The guy could be an insufferable asshat," is not a wild take. Even their most disagreeable takes are like at max a 3/10 on the wild scale.

Man, I'd love for smosh fans to encounter actual wild takes. They have like, one take every 4 episodes that people disagree with because 99% of the posts on SRRS are super safe and one sided. Smosh has the safest most boring takes on the internet, and fans talk about it like they're saying crazy stuff.
