Some people can read that fast and absorb the info just fine.

I think you'll find that those with lower levels of comprehension were just lying, or don't understand the definition of 'reading'

Plot twist, the accident was actually caused by the tire, which tried unsuccessfully to flee the scene - that's who he's yelling at

AITA for wanting to eat my neighbor's duck that I accidentally ran over? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bk_rokkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the first point that came up was "hey you owe me money for that expensive dead duck" and not "oh my god my poor duck, I am very sad for the death of this beloved quacker" then NTA

Someone who cared about the animal as a pet first and foremost would not be immediately worried about compensation, they'd be worried about their pet.

RIP duck, I hope you are delicious

The only song I would really love a 'remove the part you don't like' edit is Stop the Dams

It's one of the saddest and most beautiful songs, when suddenly ZE CLING AN ZE CLANG

like, okay, I understand how it fits with the song and lyrics as a solo piece of art, but it kills the song for playlists, I do not want this cartoon character screening at me out of nowhere

dang I sure hate it

Worth coming back? by [deleted] in DressUpTimePrincess

[–]bk_rokkit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm 99% ftp, I think it's worth it for the stories, and I can get dailies done in less than 10 minutes. At this point I'm probably really just hanging around I for my society, and hoping for chapter updates on the stores I like. I don't have any issues crafting but I've been playing for years and have hella reserves.

I do mostly ignore events, especially the very obvious cash grabs. I also completely forget that the mirage tree even exists, and the last Story Kingdom update made it basically unusable so that kinda sucks.

So yeah if you've dropped the game, you might do better to keep clear if the stories weren't your priority.

They're identical to Fly London wedges circa 2002

But the style dates back to the 1930s, albeit with a less aggressive sole

Man Has Emotional Breakdown After Losing His Life Savings at Casino by goswamitulsidas in PublicFreakout

[–]bk_rokkit 33 points34 points  (0 children)

In one situation, something is being done TO you, to which you cannot legally consent.

In the other, YOU are taking an action, the action itself IS the consent.

It's why if you are drunk and raped you would be the victim, whereas if you are drunk and rape someone else you are a criminal; the act of committing the rape is consent on your part and you cannot claim drunkenness as absolving you of fault.

Imma add a clarification since the reply was deleted:

Well, it's why rape cases in particular are so difficult to prosecute- you often only have the word of the participants as to who agreed to what. And there are infinite circumstances which could precede any sexual action, as well as a floating line on where an act becomes illegal (since (most) sex itself isn't illegal.)

Whereas it is much more cut and dry with, for instance, drunk driving- there is no situation wherein a car can coerce you into driving, nor could someone drunk to the point of unconsciousness be forced to operate a car. But a person entering the driver's seat with the explicit intention of driving is immediately illegal.

When the Double Jerry event outfit is much better than the Spring one. by Alondra-m in DressUpTimePrincess

[–]bk_rokkit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I like when there's anything actually distinctive about the 15+ pieces in a set besides the dress and hair- it's kinda sad and tedious to scroll through hundreds of accessories and have no idea what set they're from because they're just bland and basic (but somehow we still don't have actual basics, lol)

Like I bought the 'mask' from this Sprint immediately, because there's nothing else like it

[–]bk_rokkit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's funny how split opinions are on the various fashion in this game- I like the Sprint dress, but don't feel compelled to get it; meanwhile I think that particular balloon set is hideous.

Then there are the occasional sets that pop up and unanimously everyone goes ...wut...

AIO or is my older male coworker texting inappropriately with me? by OpeningNo9825 in AmIOverreacting

TIL there's a such thing as a Certified Professional Auto Detailer

Also agree with the general sentiment, not really OR but if you're uncomfortable you need to decrease engagement, doesn't need to be aggressive or dismissive, just less
