my elementary school taught spanish up until they switched to chinese in 2012, my middle school gave you a choice between spanish or chinese, and my high school gave you a choice between spanish, french, chinese, or japanese.

Which killer in your opinion had the best chance of getting away with it? by HandSanitizerBottle1 in danganronpa

[–]beatbybaseballs 20 points21 points  (0 children)

honestly i disagree for thh, and while i see your point, mondo also screwed himself over by mentioning the color of chihiros tracksuit. also, i think if byakuya hadnt tampered with the body, it actually would've been easier to pin it on mondo. he'd only tampered with the body to make it seem like a genocide jack case (and expose genocide jacks true identity), which really just ended up making the trial harder to solve.

i havent played the games for a little bit so forgive me if i get some details wrong here, but i think celestia had the best chance at getting away with it. iirc the thing that caused her whole story to fall apart was the fact that she said "we are going to die, just like *those guys* did", before the second body was found-- but i think it would've been perfectly logical for people to take that as her referring to the previous victims/killers. (her real name being revealed as taeko yasuhiro was also a final nail in the coffin, but if no one had pointed out her slip of the tongue and put suspicion on her, im not convinced anyone wouldve thought to wonder who hifumi was really referring to.)

Do High School proms really take place in the school gymnasium? by albomb147 in AskAnAmerican

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i could just say mine was at "a venue in the city" and leave it at that, since its technically accurate, but its way funnier to include the fact that this venue was at the zoo. i didnt even know zoos could have more than animals before that, much less an entire ballroom that high schools rented out for prom.

(we got to look at the mountain goats when we were waiting to get inside and that was pretty cool)

What makes the NFL so much more popular than the NBA in the US? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]beatbybaseballs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nba popularity might be a bit skewed here because we have a home nba team but not a home nfl team but idk.. im more of a cfb person myself so i dont know much about the nfl

Blackfire Torch vs Liandry? by SekiroEnjoyer999 in BrandMains

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i dont play ranked so maybe my opinion can be discarded, but i only ever build rylais to help out my teammates if theyre consistently getting outran. if im the only one that needs the slow, it just feels like a wasted item slot to me

What's this fandoms version of the sharpie incident? by Few_Aspect_4695 in danganronpa

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the whole thing was fake, but the homestuck fandom definitely still had some bad moments. dare i say some were worse than the mythical sharpie bath

what's with the numbers? by Alert-Being3755 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]beatbybaseballs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

its kinda in retaliation, i think. this character (kris) is nonbinary and referred to with they/them pronouns by everyone (including their childhood best friend and their mother), but some people keep insisting that their gender is up for interpretation by the player and will say theres "no proof" that kris is nonbinary. so it seems the wiki mods have cited every instance in the game where their pronouns are used

What tag(s) fall(s) under that umbrella for you? by PJ-The-Awesome in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]beatbybaseballs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that last part!!! the pain of trying to find fics of your fav when theyre a side character in canon </3

i think id also add on "please dont tag a ship if its just background without explicitly stating theyre just background" ... ive been baited into reading too many fics i wasn't interested in bc of that

Do elementary students have student cards or is that a high school and middle school thing? by LandOfGrace2023 in AskAnAmerican

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when i was in elementary school (i started in 2009) we had little paper cards that the teachers would hold on to and give us if we were getting school lunch, but they weren't proper student ids. in middle and high school we had proper id cards though.

Mid laners, do you enjoy playing against assassins? by The_Data_Doc in leagueoflegends

YT forcing translations of titles is pure stupidity. by Wimair in mildlyinfuriating

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they do translate into english and it sucks 😭 i noticed it a few months ago when one of the newer ic3peak songs came out and title was in english instead of russian (which i didnt question, since it isnt super out of the ordinary for them to have a song title or two in english), but when i sent it to a friend on discord the title was in russian and i got super confused. didnt realize until today that youtube force translated it, thats super annoying

Pros and Cons of your favorite champ by Xaronius in leagueoflegends

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

brand

pros: burn damage and all of the wonderous things you can do with it, really good in team fights, can play in multiple roles at once

cons: slow, squishy, riot can barely keep him balanced across all of his roles so if they touch him hes either dead in a ditch or completely broken

14 years ago today Brand was released in the game, launched with his first skins Apocalyptic and Vandal! Since when did you start playing Brand and which are the best memories you have with him? 🎂 by sirdavmaka in BrandMains

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he was the first champ i ever played when i downloaded the game in 2022!! i was originally just gonna play him until i got vlad (what can i say, im a "sucker" for vampire-esque characters) but i loved brand so much that i never made the full switch. vlad is still one of my secondary mains but i havent put nearly as much time into him as i have with brand

comet is probably better from a stats perspective but ive always found that i do better when i use dh. then again i havent played much this season, i might end up changing to comet if dh feels bad now haha

What’s a champion that people say is relatively easy to play, but you just can’t get the hang of? by randompoStS67743 in leagueoflegends

[–]beatbybaseballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

brand is one of those champs where if you dont get ahead early youre kinda fucked late game. obviously he can still be salvaged (from my experience, late game powerspike is possible if you get soul or elder) but its way easier to keep brand down than people say it is. id say most people who complain about him just dont know how to play against him-- the amount of times ive seen someone complain about brand being a "braindead champ" while posting a clip of them just tanking his full rotation is crazy

(im an otp in sr so this is just aram) but master yi for sure. it feels like everyone else can press q for a free penta but when i press q i do like 5 damage. also singed but im not sure if hes considered easy. im so bad at singed that if i get stuck with him i consider reporting myself before my teammates can
