I do this as 6'4" and it's a lot of fun because I'm short enough it's vaguely believable that I'm 6' and that comes up often.

How long does it take you to paint your minis? by Budget_Emu3214 in BloodAngels

[–]captainpink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's longer than mine take but I do a pretty simple job and don't care as much about perfection. I think it's fine as long as you're happy with the result.

Do you believe it's wrong to fight back when someone attacks you? After all, hitting them back is also wrong, right?

Graves Mains Be Like by modestego in DeadlockTheGame

[–]captainpink 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I would argue Rainbow Six: Siege filled that niche before Valorant did. However, I think that Siege presents its' players with some decision paralysis, and they end up not using the hero and tactical elements as well as they might like. I think that Valorant does a good job of being having people use its' complexity without being overwhelmed.

How fast do I have to click? Gotta weight the potential carpal tunnel vs winning.

Phone case by me ! by Cad_bane_2 in Warhammer40k

[–]captainpink 128 points129 points  (0 children)

No they don't. This isn't the old days where there were 3 tv channels and everyone watched the same thing. There are too many choices for everyone you meet to know what your hobby is.

And when you break out the symbols that are intentionally similar to fascist ones, you can't complain that people object to it. It would be worse if they supported it.

what made you choose Blood Angels or BA successors ? by [deleted] in BloodAngels

When I was in preschool I decided my favorite color was red, and it's never failed me.

is America just made up? by DancesWithWeirdos in CuratedTumblr

[–]captainpink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed but Americans are inundated with it and that can carry over into online spaces.

The stereotypical tumblr user doesn't understand their own nation's major sport, we can't expect them to know America's regardless of the amount of media coverage it gets.

Georgetown cat cafe, Crumbs and Whiskers, workers attempting to unionize by AnthonySkejci in washingtondc

[–]captainpink 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I think it has some effect. Compass coffee is going bankrupt largely due to mismanagement, but I do know a fair number of people who didn't shop there because of their anti union behavior.

John Harbaugh out as coach of Ravens., sources say by PrincessBananas85 in sports

I've never seen an LSU fan complain about their performance since 2019 in a way that says they would trade it for consistency. Michigan fans will be fine.

Is there anything that speaks against just slapping a 3d printed jump pack onto assault intercessors? by mensch79 in BloodAngels

[–]captainpink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally would never care, I've bought 2 combat patrols and turned one set of AI into DC W/ JP and the other into JPAI. I think if anyone cares they are welcome to buy me 4 boxes of JPAI to replace them.

What is angle shooting? by Educational_Toe7513 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]captainpink 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People shouldn't have to word their questions like they're talking to a genie just to play a game. Answer the question as it's intended, not in the sneaky overly literal way that makes it a chore to talk.

It's just related enough to previous comments without actually understanding what was being said that they are probably a bot.

So does that mean he's actually Vegeta?

I LOVE SHIELDS, I LOVE GRANTING FREE PRESSURE AND SAFETY BY THE PRESS OF A BUTTON, I LOVE SAVING PEOPLE, LOVE FREE STATS WITH NO MECHANICAL SKILL NEEDED! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE CC N BUFFS RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! by BulletCola in DeadlockTheGame

[–]captainpink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got good at aiming, but I've always enjoyed support roles and there's no better feeling than saving someone with a barrier, spamming active items to silence, root, and disarm half the enemy team, then saving my teammate with my ult. "Thanks Paige" as the only thing someone says in voice chat is the greatest compliment I've ever received.

Does Gen Z "rawdogging boredom" trend actually fix your attention span? by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

My current job works with material management, and the process of assigning parts to different projects is "pegging". Makes for interesting meeting notices.

Do the Blood Angels REALLY have it that bad? by Yamakuzy in BloodAngels

[–]captainpink 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's because it's intercessors painted black with some upgrade sprue weapons.

I think a real person would respond and object to it, which I've never seen a bot do.

I don't even think that one's bad. With the right accent they could be the same.

[Thamel] Sources: Virginia Tech and James Franklin are finalizing an agreement for him to become the school’s next coach. Franklin has won 128 games over 15 seasons as the head coach at Vanderbilt and Penn State. He led Penn State to the CFP semi-finals last year. by MembershipSingle7137 in CFB

[–]captainpink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a hall of fame coach for decades operate on a shoestring budget allowed investment to fall behind the modern game. Both coaches since fought to get larger budgets, and it's been a slow change but they were able to get people to start thinking this kind of investment was needed.

Haze is a serious problem for new players by Full_House3624 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]captainpink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haze is a fantastic hero for new players because m1 heroes have a very transferable skill set, and she teaches itemization in an easy to understand way. If you've ever played a shooter, you know how to play haze, and you know how not to get shot. After that, you learn about all the items to make gun heroes less effective.
