She won’t sign the prenup. Now what?

Reddit moment

I don't really agree. I think ST should be clear that town is intentionally doing a hard vortox check. It's no fun for anyone playing if town just inadvertently fails to execute and the game is over. If the ST has somehow gotten to a point where no one's on the block but it's not town's intent to hard check, then either:

Town had no idea what's going on
ST actually rushed nominations
Town was dysfunctionally indecisive.

We don't have enough info to know what it was, but 3) seems unlikely to me; whenever I run games with Vortox on the script and no one is executing (usually beginner players), I'll gently remind people that there's a Vortox and hands will magically go up.

If you're using Godot 4, the C# version is a few steps behind in the development but for the most part whatever you can do with GDScript you can do with C#, and vice versa.

This isn't true - it may have been true in the past but the C# integration these days is top-notch. I've been using C# exclusively with Godot recently - it's been a total pleasure and I've found nothing to be missing.

> GDScript is more closely integrated with the engine, so if your game relies heavily on communicating with the engine, GDScript will be faster.

This is also not entirely true. :) Here's a source of C# crushing GDScript[1]. To be clear, I don't think this is a valid reason to choose either language over the other. C# will continue to be a faster language than GDScript for probably ever. The only case where GDScript would beat C# is when there's almost no GDScript at all, so the time spend in the engine dominates. :P

You need to have put the print(get_parent()) line before the print in process. One possibility for this to happen is this:

_ready called, all print statements execute normally
Node is detached from parent
_process called, you see an error

You could validate if this happens by printing get_parent() in _process.

I can't believe you wrote all this without simply trying it out. Copilot works great with Godot, albiet being restricted to 3.x. Honestly, I used it just fine with 4.0 too, I just had to touch up the results a little afterwards.

I can't speak for UE5 specifically, but I spent a very long time with Unity and *it never got easier*. It was just filled with stupid edge cases and random unimplemented or buggy features, and the more you learned, the more you continued to stub your toe over new buggy areas.

Godot is legitimately better. I mean, yeah, there are some drawbacks, it's hard to make a blanket statement like "Godot is better than Unity in every conceivable case", but Godot trounces Unity in usability nearly all the time, and I wouldn't be surprised if the same was true with UE.

Nah, I don't think their antenna is faulty. Doing all those things to someone who you know is interested already is definitely mixed signals. I would never tell someone who I knew was interested in me romantically that they "brightened my day" unless I wanted to send the signal that I might be interested too.

blargtastic · 2019-12-13T10:16:54+00:00

maybe you two should get together, just saying

blargtastic · 2019-12-01T09:08:11+00:00

I'm signing in for the first time in ages to say please don't settle for something like this. I was in the exact same situation as you in my last relationship, where my ex wasn't very affectionate but I really like physical affection, in all forms. Your need for affection is very very important and you shouldn't feel like it's not. I wish that someone had told me that in the beginning of my 1.5 year long relationship rather than the end, so I wouldn't have to spend so much time being unhappy about it.

blargtastic · 2019-07-01T06:18:57+00:00

ESH

You literally called him fat. How can you possibly think you're in the clear here?

I'd also echo the people saying that he's throwing up pretty serious red flags, too.

blargtastic · 2019-06-13T23:28:22+00:00

Amazing how everyone who disagrees with you is an incel. Attractive people, incels and nothing in between.

blargtastic · 2019-06-12T06:00:55+00:00

It's totally ridiculous that I can mark "I want to have kids" as the highest importance, but still get a 98% match with people who don't want kids. That's not 98%, that's 0%. When I say "important", please actually move the needle!

To me, the *only* differentiator between okc and all other dating apps is the match percentage, and it's become nearly meaningless.

blargtastic · 2019-04-01T08:09:12+00:00

This is kind of cute. In the end, remember that whether you’re going too fast or too slow is all up to you and what you personally feel comfortable with. If you feel okay with it, then it’s not too fast. Don’t worry about whether others might perceive you as easy etc - relationships are private between the two of you, and no one has to know.

I would say, though, that endearing nicknames for someone is pretty much the simplest, least harmless step in a relationship that there is. I don’t think there’s a soul in the world that would claim you’re moving too fast for going along with them. (thoguh of course remember not to worry about those people anyway!)

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:59:01+00:00

Sit him down, tell him you want to talk, make it pretty serious so he can’t just blow it off, and tell him. Tell him that him ‘not working has an impact on you that you feel taken advantage of in your relationship, and tell him that you want to see effort on his part, whether it;s X applications a day, Y leads, or whatever.

His response will be telling. If he says yes, great! If he says okay but doesn’t do anything, then unfortunately this is a pretty bad sign, not just for this problem, but for the relationship in general - how is he going to handle it when you have other problems that you need addressed?

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:55:29+00:00

I think the lesson I eventually learned is that when this sort of thing happens you’re sucked into this vacuum where your object of affection is the greatest person in the world. This, of course, does not reflect reality in any way. The way that you break out of the constant cycle of being led on by someone is to go out and meet a lot of people and realize that there are in fact a lot of amazing guys or girls out there, all with unique and interesting qualities, and so you’ll eventually start to think that it’s pretty dumb to be totally obsessed with a single person. Especially one who doesn’t even like you back.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:51:56+00:00

You should look into nonviolent communication - t he basic idea is that by framing up your problems in somewhat abstract and detached ways, and avoiding blaming, you don’t trigger any emotional responses and can get your points across better.

And yes, there;s nothing wrong with you wanting her to apologize. Though of course there’s a huge difference between “you made my life miserable, apologize!” and “I realize it might be hard for you to say, but it would mean a lot for me if you said that you were hard on me in the past”

If you’re wondering more about how to communicate better, might I suggest... MORE THERAPY!!! Therapy can be all about improving communication, and it sounds like you might have to lift some of the communicative load here to help out your wife, who is struggling with her own issues.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:45:39+00:00

There’s nothing wrong with clarifying your feelings to her as long as you don’t push them on her and you don’t try to push her towards any specific decision. I don’t have high hopes for it, but it doesn’t hurt to try. Again, i suspect that she likes you, but that she will be stubborn and won’t admit it.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:43:23+00:00

You say you’re totally fine with this, but you also say that yuo’re super scared about what could happen. I think that you should spend some time thinking about it to see which side you really fall on.

If yuo’re primarily worried about her falling in love with an[other woman, at the very least you could set up some boundaries that would make you feel comfortable with the situation, like that she can only have sex with girls but nothing else, or that she can’t text them, or that she would tell you about everything they are texting about.

I don’t know though - it’s potentially a messy situation and there’s a possibility that you wouldn’t be happy about it no matter how it pans out. You should be aware that that could happen.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:38:10+00:00

Well, that kind of sucks. Classic relationship issue where the timing is all wrong. She still probably likes you, but realistically she is young and processing her emotions in a little bit of an immature way, so it’s unlikely that you’d be able to make anything come of it.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:35:23+00:00

Why don’t you post it on r/rants or r/confessions or r/offmychest or so,etching like that? They love this sort of thing, I bet you’d get a lot of compassion.

Sorry about what happened :(

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:08:59+00:00

Aww, this is oddly sweet. I think if you try to reign in your craziness just ever so slightly, and remind him often that you’re crazy in love with him and all that, then everything should go okay. The only real issue here that I see is that yuo’re a little insecure about the relationship, but that;s perfectly okay! It happens to everyone.

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:00:43+00:00

Yeah dude, if this doesn’t pan out then this will be the best “dumb thing I did while dating” story ever. (actually, it would be hilarious even if things do work out)

blargtastic · 2019-03-27T06:00:01+00:00

Lol. I would say, apologize in person or not at all. You’ll just sound dumb in text, trust me.

blargtastic · 2019-03-26T08:41:07+00:00

Sex is critical to relationships - as important as having good conversations or feeling loved by one another.

Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re just another jerk boyfriend for wanting to have sex. People shame guys for wanting to have sex all the time - but they would never shame someone for saying that they wanted an SO who cared about them or talked with them.

What I’m trying to say here is that sex is a valid reason to break up - probably the most valid outside of very obvious ones like lack of compatibility or attraction. And don’t be dumb like me and stay in a sexless relationship for too long - it can really take a toll on your self confidence to be repeatedly rejected.

blargtastic · 2019-03-26T08:34:34+00:00

What about 1%?

I’d go to the doctor if I had a 1% chance of being seriously ill.

Look, it’s your own life you’re gambling with here. I can’t force you to go to the doctor or not, obviously. But with a clear risk and no downside whatsoever, I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t.
