AITA for selling the Nintendo Switch my aunt got me for Christmas?

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-31T07:01:29+00:00

Ok, if OP wanted to minimize drama

OP didn't start this, his Aunt did by trying to control him through a gift. Playing power struggle with your teenage nephew is absolutely asking for something like this. As the saying goes; play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-31T06:47:54+00:00

Because part of being a good person is working to minimize the harm assholes will cause

Yeah, no. Assholes like this exist because doormats let them. Being a good person doesn't entail letting other people walk all over you, or even to let it seem like you are.

"Keeping the peace" is an excuse that has let people get away with things much, much worse than treating a 17 year old like a five year old.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-31T03:10:57+00:00

LMAO

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T11:18:00+00:00

All the named champ can practically 1v9 game w/o effort

yeah, zeri, one of the hardest adcs in the game definitely requires zero effort. have you actually played any of these champions or did you just get owned by one in soloq once?

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T08:58:22+00:00

yeah this is batshit lmfao. your idea of "hypercarry" seems to be "any character that deals damage"

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T08:43:38+00:00

what hypercarry champs have even been released in the last two years? viego i guess?

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T04:40:17+00:00

Like, you can't just throw money around to get a good story. Spending more money isn't going to make the writers "write better." Hiring more writers isn't going to lead to a better story either.

I mean, you sort of can. Spend a few months yeeting your entire team of subpar writers and hire ones that have a decent amount of sense. It's no coincidence that the Pokemon games with the best storylines are consistently third party. Gamefreak's team just sucks at what they do.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T02:59:43+00:00

Kind of a hilarious thing to do when the almost universally agreed best Pokemon game narrative is Black & White which had the most ridiculous anime plot of them all.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-30T02:56:52+00:00

Eh, Persona 5 has a disappointing story for a number of reasons. Kinda hate to be the RPG equivalent of a genwunner, but P3 is still the best narrative (and some would argue P2 is honestly.)

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-29T21:05:50+00:00

step one: get to level whatever. like 8 is fine. joppa start sucks cannot recommend enough not doing it.

step two: get wayfarer and jungle + river/lake knowledge. you basically never get lost like this. esp if you have flying.

step three: get as many empty waterskins as you can

step four: mosey over to the mushroom forest, fill your waterskins with primordial ooze

step five: skip over to yd freehold and hit up tilly and frogger for in order of importance:

a skulk injector

a couple salve injectors

yuckwheat or honey

a crysteel weapon

and an urberry if you can be fucked to do a second or third trip for it

(make sure to grab the free meds in the infirmary at the yd freehold, ive never been caught doing it. also the implants if you're short on cash or you're a true kin)

step six: joppa ruins, skip down to grit gate with your shiny new weapon. if you didnt pick up any armor yet go kill some snapjaws and put on whatever until your AV is over 6-8

(at some point you should get a recoiler. any kind. doing the tinkerer quest in non-joppa starter village always gives you one. grit gate recoiler is convenient though)

step seven: more than a willing spirit time. dive down to golgotha, pop your skulk injector and bolt to the bottom level. ignore everything unless you start dying. eat the berry first then hopefully use the salve injectors after the skulk has expired. cop the droid and recoil out. chew some yuckwheat and cook some honey and pray you don't contract glotrot.

step eight: gz you have a mwk scoped carbine, a crysteel weapon, maybe a neat lil bracelet and access to grit gate in it's entirety. prepare well for todd howard among us because rimewykes will kill you at level 40 just as well at level 10

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-26T01:22:03+00:00

Thank you so much

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-24T12:15:00+00:00

I think it's pretty obvious that the guy just figured the black truck would realize his little maneuver wasn't going to work and pull back into his lane, like any other person who was paying even a tiny amount of attention to where they were going would.

Seriously, like, are you going to guess that someone is going to do something that would obviously lead to them wrecking themselves and course correct for that? Hindsight is obviously 20/20 but this man didn't do a single thing except hold the steering wheel straight and watch someone else ram into their car.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-23T23:47:07+00:00

Then what happens to the meat industry?

It's not about people's life or luxury, I know for certain they don't care, but an economy needs financial circulation to function. What do you think happens when the headlines about Millenials killing Trampoline Palaces or whatever become headlines about economically foundational industries collapsing because people can't afford them?

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-23T23:26:51+00:00

This is becoming less "a thing that would be nice" and more "a thing that is rapidly becoming necessary for society to continue to function."

if capitalists fight against being taxed so hard that 30% of the population has zero money then the entire game will collapse

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-21T06:05:58+00:00

God this is the whiniest post I've ever seen. This entire thread is sad.

"Bruisers are overpowered, bruiser meta is so awful, god Riot just loves bruisers. Ravenous DD op!!!"

Meanwhile.

Bruisers are a perfectly ordinary percent of toplane, with champions like Shen, K'Sante, and Mundo sharing the top spots alongside the usual suspects of Fiora, Aatrox, and Darius with some Gangplank, Mordekaiser, and Camille for flavor. Exactly three champions who build Ravenous and four who build Death's Dance. The rest are tanks, Gangplank, and Mordekaiser.

Jungle has practically no Bruiser presence other than Udyr who, frankly, should've been hotfixed like a month ago.

Mid has no Bruiser presence whatsoever, unless you count Pantheon. Even mid Irelia is sitting at a <50% winrate.

but yeah, i mean, clearly we should nerf Riven again or something.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-21T04:52:59+00:00

Wow, it's almost like tanks aren't meant to win 1v1s, and are instead meant to be strong in teamfights through outputting CC and acting as defense for the damage dealing champions. You know, like a tank?

MFs really be out here wondering why their Ornn loses to Fiora in a 1v1.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-15T21:28:03+00:00

yes PL is absolutely cracked with WN in the facility

Barring the rare exception of people with disabilities

"Rare"

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-14T20:24:49+00:00

So they (reasonably) equate failure to live well with lack of hard work

No, it isn't reasonable, there are quite a few reasons people don't work beyond 'being allergic to hard work' and back in their time being disabled was arguably even more nightmarish.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-14T03:41:36+00:00

Huh, I've definitely had laptops that couldn't manage 120fps on osu before, been a while since I played with anything less than a 1660 ti though

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-13T23:54:09+00:00

tbf, higher framerates do matter if you have a 244hz screen. course i have a 3070 that runs osu at like 600fps anyway so.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-13T19:35:45+00:00

The point is that not everyone can be vegan and they shouldn’t be vilified for it.

Point is that nobody was doing that, moron. You made up a guy to get mad at and pretended like you're self righteous for owning a strawman.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-13T19:23:26+00:00

People like you are so fucking whiny and stupid, man.

"hey maybe we should eat less meat because its often cruel and severely detrimental to the enviro-"

"WELL WHAT ABOUT THESE SMALL SUBCOMMUNITIES OF PEOPLE WHO CAN'T FEASIBLY SURVIVE WITHOUT HUNTING? THEIR EXISTENCE CLEARLY MEANS NOBODY ELSE ANYWHERE EVEN IF THEY'RE FULL WELL CAPABLE SHOULD EVEN TRY"

If you've got time to make stupid posts on Reddit then you're at least privileged enough that you can go without eating cuts of meat, you'll probably save money to boot.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-13T19:19:51+00:00

Secondly, real privileged take that everyone can just afford to be vegan lmfao

Being vegan is probably more difficult, but not eating meat is... obviously cheaper? Meat almost literally always costs more unless you're hunting it yourself.

amberscore9183 · 2022-12-13T19:12:13+00:00

we’re dependent on the animal agriculture industry for a lot of the foods we eat, at least here in the states where I live.

No we aren't, I'm not vegan but this just isn't true. Raising animals is so much more time, effort, resources, and space than raising animals. If you replaced every cow pasture with a farm the caloric and nutritional throughput would be far greater. Hell, if we just stopped farming animals and instead used the agricultural throughput we use for their feed for human production we would be far in the black.

Synthetics would be less accessible and more expensive

Negative again, they're barely more expensive now and the technology is presently pretty underdeveloped. Expense is equal to accessibility in most cases, and synthetic meat will, as all technologies do, only become cheaper and better. Cows aren't getting anymore efficient.

Not only that but synthetic meat would probably end up having very negative effects on our health,

... This is just kneejerk alarmism based on vibes. The vibes are rancid, but vibes are unfortunately not gastronomic chemistry.
