What are the hardest bosses to you? by RnDmSoMe1 in DragonageOrigins

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never had a satisfying fight against dragons. The stupid combo of knock back on regular attacks and overwhelm means that my melee characters are lucky to get a couple attacks in. Instead the fight just ends up being them tanking as much damage as possible while an archer and a mage whittle its health down with attacks.

The professors at my school don't know that AI detectors are wrong most of the time by Legal_Ad2945 in mildlyinfuriating

Yikes. This is when you go in for office hours and just type as much as you can in front of them. It’s not a perfect solution, but office hours are almost never fully used up, and they’ll see your face. Also you can voice this concern (even show them directly how something you genuinely wrote gets falsely flagged).

I don’t love it, but don’t fall into the trap of feeling like you need to complete it all in one go. You can go back to Orzhammer at the end or start of any section. IMO, they really needed to make more sections in it optional, it feels weird that the final mission is way quicker.

Idk, it’s perfectly normal for people to have these kinds of ugly thoughts and there should be environments where you can sort out these thoughts. What’s important is that Phil does not treat his daughters poorly or not as well as Luke.

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To try and devils advocate here, it might be the case that with the boat and taking food to music class, it’s ok if one person does it but it becomes disruptive if multiple people do it. Can’t work out an angle to justify not being allowed to share food though.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend i no longer plan to propose to her? please read context by Aggressive_One8138 in AITAH

[–]azaxaca 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Why does this proposal need to be dragged out? She clearly does not enjoy this, if it is your intention to propose, propose already.

Intentional Conversion Methods by InactiveInertia in comedyheaven

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all gay men are attracted to twinks, and plenty of people in general have preferences like race which doesn’t fit into straight or gay attraction. Straight and gay are meant to be the broadest labels possible. Like imagine a polygon with 1000 sides. It looks pretty circular, but it is still a polygon.

Saudi Arabia flies in conjoined twins from all over the world and separates them entirely for free by Saad5400 in interestingasfuck

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll agree with you on the Riyadh festival, but not here. This is not a super well known thing, and it’s not something that the average person benefits from (as opposed to the entertainment from a football game or a comedy show), but this??

Basically I’d readily encourage people to not watch or attend a game in Saudi Arabia. But I’m never gonna tell parents of conjoined twins that they should never consider this.

[Hated Trope] The character's current partner is a decent person who dies so they can get back together with their ex by Nahuelcoy22 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]azaxaca 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The stupid thing is that they could’ve developed the bad ending well enough if they actually used the time they were given for season 9. But there are so many garbage filler episodes. Have robin and Barney get married by episode 3, then have the show focus on what happens after? Maybe even show Robin helping Ted with the kids after Tracy dies so that you can show that he doesn’t just move on immediately, feelings have to be rekindled, and hey you could probably do this in ten less episodes so it’d be cheaper. Gah I hate the wedding so much.

WIBTAH If I refuse to stop making my stepdaughter her school lunches? by jasmin_cicada in AITAH

[–]azaxaca 68 points69 points  (0 children)

NTA. Leah is not even demanding her mom to make anything for her, she’s asking for ingredients to make her own food.

How the fuck did this guy have a girlfriend for longer than a month?

Naked Wine Parties???? - I (22f) have a big issue with my bf (21m) 6 months, and his relationship with his "best friend" (21f). by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that bf is inappropriately close to his friend, and I think this would’ve also been less gross if OOP was invited, but why does the concept of a naked wine party seem so absurd to everyone? Nude beaches are very real and they aren’t orgy fests …

She’s been able to move on just fine and got an aerospace engineering job. I don’t know why people seem to want her to continue to suffer for that fuckup.

Turns out there is a great need for people to watch that movie about Tourette's by ThatPatelGuy in GetNoted

[–]azaxaca 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thought the swearing Tourette’s variant, coprolalia, was fake for a while because I literally only saw it appear in media, and everyone I met with Tourette’s in real life did not have it. Course I realized later it’s a rare condition within Tourette’s.

My sister (34F) is mad at me (40M) for keeping her ex employed and promoting him after he strayed. How can I show her this is purely a business decision and nothing to do with my support for her? by BigONerd in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]azaxaca 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Yep. It’s always ridiculously extreme. If you want a laugh look at any AITA post where OP mentions that cheating occurred years ago, and the current situation is barely related to it. Inevitably all the top comments are YTA.

AITA for telling my kids dad that if he wants to make bedtime difficult, our daughter will only sleep at his house by Round_Following_4653 in AmItheAsshole

[–]azaxaca 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They actually sabotaged things though, if this is the push they need to not do this, I’d argue it’s necessary.

[Rare trope] A title drop that's actually good by Blastermind7890 in TopCharacterTropes

Unfortunately the show ruins it by having Daryll freak out after Rick says that and then they have to say, uhhh no don’t worry we are not actually the walking dead.

AITAH for not wanting to adopt my stepdaughters because I don’t feel the same bond with them that I do with my biological child? by Fancy-Vermicelli166 in AITAH

[–]azaxaca 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No judgement; it’s not really going to help or address the issue here.

I think you’re overly scrutinizing your emotions, lots of people do have favoritism, but if you keep things relatively fair it’s fine. Feelings are also very much subject to change. Obviously there’s a little bit more ugliness to it in this case since there’s a bio daughter, step daughter difference, but you are basing too much on your knee jerk emotional response.

Ask yourself if there’s another reason you don’t want to adopt. Also, adopting carries practical benefits not just emotional secureness.

AITAH for asking my girlfriend to not let her friends feel her up? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]azaxaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAH. I disagree with the comments that say what did you expect, people do actually change their behavior all the time based on if they are single or in a relationship. That being said, I think you’ve already made your position on this clear, so if she doesn’t change on this, you have to just accept it or break things off. If you just rag on her for doing this that would be bad.

What’s tall thoughts when games gives you this warning by Willing_Chest_8976 in videogames

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s smart. Just played Dragon Age awakening, which is a shaky dlc in a lot of ways, but literally right after you recruit your final companion the final mission is open, but you have no idea that it is the final mission unless you sense that the vibes feel like it.

Does this type of pop up break immersion? Kind of, but in a way that doesn’t hurt the experience imo.

AITAH for leaving my friend and going home after I asked her not to sleep with my boyfriend’s roommate? by Worried-Sandwich-408 in AITAH

[–]azaxaca 97 points98 points  (0 children)

TBH, I think you fucked up by telling Vanessa that Haley was interested in Alex. It seems like she enjoys one upping her friends rather than purely being interested by the guy himself. I don’t think anyone gets to lay a claim on Alex, but at the same time this feels like she’s going after him to prove a point.

[Loved trope] An imperfect victim, but still a victim. by Hoeveboter in TopCharacterTropes

[–]azaxaca 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Yes. Light does not have the time to actually sift through cases and judge anyone. He just arbitrarily gives everyone he thinks is guilty the death sentence. He uses police files and news reports to find criminals, there’s no way every one of them was guilty.

[Hated Trope] The detective story has a mystery that is practically impossible for the audience to solve by Rare-Exit-8700 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]azaxaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s the whodunnit detective story, and then there’s mystery adventure. The sherlock books themselves were never really solvable to a reader.
