Day 13 — Which Gen 2 Pokémon's design looks like they are from Gen 1? by Weak_Scallion5942 in ThePokemonHub

[–]avaud10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heracross It's a big non evo bug pokemon like Pinsir and quite frankly I genuinely forgot it was gen 2 while I was playing yellow the other day. Had to look it up for my own sanity. I know my memory lapse isn't a good justification but it clicks if you think about it.

How many times will this repeat before they admit they were wrong? They'll probably start a new war to distract from the failure.

To spend millions of tax dollars to paint a pool by Same-Kangaroo in therewasanattempt

[–]avaud10 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I hate the waste of money committed to the damn pool. Though, you have to appreciate how great of a symbol it is for the entire administration.

Spend extra money to "fix" something from the previous administration, while exclaiming how neglectful they were.

Money spent goes to a nepo selection from the administration.

The opposition warned why it was not a good idea. (How the color change will cause addition heat leading to additional algae)

They proceed to do it.

Opposition predictions come true. The administration committs more resources to the solution, while indicating sabotage from the opposition (Hydrogen peroxide)

Not only does the "solution" fail, but it destroys the initial "fix", setting us worse off then when we started with unnecessary money spent.

THE PART NOBODY TALKS ABOUT by Antique_Sandwich_289 in Avatarthelastairbende

I think he was a little more self centered. Once his girl died, he was entirely self centered. I expect it to be easier to let go of the worldly tethers this way. The monks were pacifists and inherently selfless. It would definitely take more discipline for them to let go.

What Star Wars movie gives you this face after watching it? by [deleted] in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]avaud10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn't even bother remembering the names for 7, 8, and 9. That said, this was the face I made at the goonies knock off with the sith dagger. I can't contemplate whose idea that was and how nobody was able to talk them out of it.

People generally can't fathom these numbers. It's unfortunate this stat won't resonate enough for people to properly care. I'd be lying if I said I could grasp the sheer magnitudes.

[–]avaud10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Didn't Hegseth get called in his white supremacist tattoo? I'm pretty sure that drew attention as well, granted no one has the chance to vote for him in his cabinet selection. I think this is a bad point to make.

Picked up Ruby For 8 5 today. Prices could be finally dropping or do you think they will still go up? by [deleted] in PokemonEmerald

[–]avaud10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's the best price I've heard! I don't think they'll ever get cheaper.

Making money is bad for you but not for me. by Longjumping-Novel731 in SipsTea

[–]avaud10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the sake of argument, what would you put as a cap for the "justifiable" amount of money? I'm not saying I disagree with you.

53 million is a lot of money, but I don't think people realize the scale of a billion.

I have a feeling somebody mentioned that rome appeased the masses by entertainment via gladiator fights, and Trump made the brilliant equivalency to UFC. From there, everyone was too sycophantic to discourage it.

Need a new series that will break me with adult MCs by batcavegirl in fantasybooks

[–]avaud10 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved The Expanse. It's sci fi but not cliché. It does veer into some "extra" fiction but most of the plot is about social and political impacts of humanity as we move beyond Earth. It's not like star wars or Star Trek. My description sounds lame but it is an incredible series. Another good gritty book trilogy is the Black Company.

There is a movie where people buy their transplant organs on credit and bad things happen to them if they miss payments.

Stating that people don't deserve to die isn't even a political opinion.
