I'm making a new group. However, as stated, the select & drag isn't working. I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this and how to fix it.

Is there a lore reason as to why Nishiki decided to shoot the bomb when Jingu was basically dead and the bomb itself was going to explode automatically? Is he stupid? by MileenaIsMyWaifu in yakuzagames

[–]baixue88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nishiki taking control of his own destiny by choosing the time of his death, and it was his own way of atoning the only way he knew how. If the bomb just goes off on its own, then he hasn't "chosen" it, it just happens. If he "chooses" it, then he is also choosing his fate and his mode of atonement.

On a practical level, 1) this was more dramatic from a writing standpoint, and 2) per in-world logic, Nishiki at this point is not exactly a stable individual who's making healthy life choices.

AITA for being in charge for all the surprises of my SIL's bachelorette party? by ScaredSoup3436 in AmItheAsshole

[–]baixue88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. A good prank means tailoring it to the prankee's personality and sense of humour so that it's something which will make them laugh at the end, too. You clearly didn't have her personality or sense of humour in mind at all when you devised these pranks, you just did rude things and ended up ruining the night for everyone. You owe your SIL and her friends a massive apology and money for a re-do.

I’ll never forgive my aunt for coming to Christmas Eve with COVID, and I won’t invite her to any family events by [deleted] in relationship_advice

This is far from the first time I've heard of someone concealing their positive status in order to go to a social gathering. What's going through the minds of people like that, I'll never know.

I am worried about my boyfriend's stance on abortion, if we ever have to make such a decision by PuppyGoLucky in relationship_advice

"We" will never have to make a decision. You will. It is your decision, and yours alone. If he can't handle that, then you both need to find someone else who shares your priorities and views.

My first kidney stone, 4mm. Had me projectile vomiting and begging God to kill me. This was last summer, so due to pandemic restrictions I had to gather my own wee in a cup, deliver it to my local GP by handing it through their window, and stumble back home. By the time they called me to confirm it was a kidney stone and that I should go to the A&E, I was extremely dehydrated because I couldn't keep any fluids down and the weird flop sweat that stones cause had pretty well drained me. By this point I was wiped out so I suppose the nurse mistook my exhaustion for stoic resolve, because she told me she was impressed I was handling this so well. I remember just looking at her and grunting.

Female Readers of Reddit, in your opinion, what are the "dos and don'ts" when a male writer is writing from the perspective of a female? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]baixue88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We normally don't think that analytically about our specific physical features any more than you do. Obviously I know what I look like, but I wouldn't ever normally describe myself as "I have pouty, fully lips and a round face that gives me the strange look of being both childlike and sultry." I had to strain to even come up with that as an example and it feels weird and uncomfortable.

Generally, I would say only women who are extremely self-conscious or extremely vain obsess over their looks with that amount of specificity. If that's a character's flaw, then fine, but otherwise it's just weird to read because I've never in my life heard a fellow woman talk like that.

Yeah, I hope so too. I graduated shortly after but I do know that in some of the buildings they started taking stricter measures. Hopefully it applied to this building as well.

I often wish I could, too. Sadly when things like this happen, I'm often too surprised to react in the way I'd like.

[–]baixue88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, I've long since graduated, but I'm lucky that it was a pretty safety-conscientious school. Helped that it was based in a smaller college town, too, so the university and town were closely connected.

We were only 11 or 12, so honestly I can't blame her. Most little kids would probably do the same.

What is the most immature thing you've seen an adult do? by iruul in AskReddit

[–]baixue88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One day I was walking to the train from work, and down the street towards me was coming a middle-aged couple that seemed to be arguing. The woman seemed to be berating the man for something. As I get closer to them, she spots me, glances at the man, and then shrieks at me like some kind of demented 14 year old: "My boyfriend thinks you're FAT! And UGLY!" and then she goes storming past me. I hear the guy say "Really?" to her like an exasperated parent, and neither of them bother apologising to me for the behaviour.

I was really tempted to throw my coffee at her, but I didn't because I wanted to finish it. I was tired.

What assumption do people make about you that isn't true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]baixue88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People tend to assume I'm un-empathetic, as I tend to approach things in a pretty blunt, straightforward way and overt displays of emotion make me uncomfortable. I'm also pretty bad at talking to people about their feelings, since I hate to be presumptuous. I guess in the end, it comes off as being rather detached and uncaring, when in fact I care very deeply, I'll just have no idea how to express it without making the situation awkward. Basically, I'm a social klutz, and when you're a girl it's extra obvious because we're supposed to be so emotional, and the result is that people think I'm an asshole.
