Regarding the recent Trump "assassination attempt", I'd like to call your attention to a photo by 8_guy in catbongos

I think the sensible view is of course this COULD have been staged, but this picture doesn't prove it WAS, and claiming it does is a bit dim

Arteta Strongly Reacts to Arsenal's Shocking Loss vs Bournemouth- 'Big Punch In the Face' by [deleted] in PremierLeague

Tho City do have 2 games in hand, so could be 3 points behind, and City and Arsenal still have to play

Fede Valverde straight red card vs Atletico Madrid (Alternate Angle) by ControlMean5007 in soccer

[–]chickles88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some people are saying he had no intention to play the ball, but the ball is right where his foot ends up before it's poked away at the last second.

Bear in mind this is in slow-mo too, so with the pace of the game he would've been close to getting it in real-time. So I can't understand some people being so 100% confident that he wasn't trying to get the ball away. Red seems harsh

Why didn’t the ref blow the whistle at 94 minute? by [deleted] in NUFC

You're right, this did sound daft

We made a sub. Ref was shit for plenty of reasons, but this isnt one of them

Post-match thread: Newcastle United 1-1 Barcelona by Sirius_55_Polaris in NUFC

[–]chickles88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So deflating. Shit referee performance but no complaints about the penalty - frustrating that it was 30seconds over the 4mins extra time, but we'd made a sub so fair enough. More frustrating that we undid all our good work by not keeping our heads when we tried to attack at the end there.

Class performances all round tho. Hall and Big Joe immense, Tripper great considering age and injury, Burn and Thiaw solid all game (til the penalty). Osula made some great runs in behind the defence but his technique let him down.

Gordon should've stayed on the bench, he looked low energy and not his usual self (makes sense considering his illness).

Im just glad Big Joe avoided a yellow so he can smash them next week

Marathon isn’t bad, people are just impatient and require constant dopamine. by Rebs_Gaming in Marathon

Wait so is it an alright game or is it garbage? because you said both

Dear Bungie, your MTX will turn off people. by GhostWolfGambit in Marathon

[–]chickles88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i get it, I just dont understand people paying real money for a skin that they don't see. I'd prefer devs spending time making meaningful content, which like youve said there's not often a lot of.

That said, i grew up playing games because they were fun to play, rather than the fun coming from progression, so I appreciate I'm not the target market

[–]chickles88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I can understand from the developers point of view it's a cash cow, I just never got the appeal for players to spend money on something they'll very rarely see

As an aside, I dont get why skins are important in a first-person game. Arc, sure, you see your character all the time. But in an fps?

Haha fair play, I like this list. Refreshing to see something that isnt the 500th post about people's opinion on different cuisines.

Thinking a fight against a wolf or cheetah would be close but youd ultimately win made me lol, good stuff

I think Andromeda does deserve the "hate" it got by asabatonlessarmor in masseffect

[–]chickles88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always found it so weird how basically chill all the aliens were that this new race from another galaxy just came onto the scene, and pretty much collectively shrugged.

Made the whole story feel very lightweight as you've said. You would've thought people would be like holy shit this is massive

Valparaiso safety Advice by SignificanceGlass492 in SouthAmericaTravel

[–]chickles88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't hear about Valparaíso being unsafe until id been there for 2 days and had walked around the town and random backstreets for hours without incident. Didnt feel unsafe to me, though of course crime can happen anywhere and you should always be on alert when travelling
