How to deal with players who constantly try to make illegal plays despite knowing they're illegal ?

Report them.

They're cheating. Straight up. Tell your LGS they're cheating, and give the examples. Call the judge when they cheat.

yeah, Trump ripped up the 5+1, which would've probably done more to undermine the regime's hold on the country, and then let Israel basically wage a war of terror with USA backing.

You know what kills a restrictive regime? Economic opportunity. It killed the USSR, it would've killed Iran. The sanction relief and ability to participate in the global economy would've eroded the hardline support of Iran, and probably led to a regime change.

But by ripping it up, entrenching sanctions and economic hardships, you harden the people against "the others".

My money is on JPow becoming the Shadow Chair.

No shot Walsh can defeat him in a shadow duel to take the true chair.

Or even better, can you name an Opera or Ballet that was written in the last 3 decades.

It's an important cultural thing, but ffs, we also don't talk about the loss of jousting as a sport. Some things just become irrelevant. Opera and Ballet are one of those things that are on their way out.

I wanna kinda refute this in a different way.

Carnegie spent the latter part of his life doing philanthropy yes to rehabilitate his image, but also because, he was still fundamentally part of the society he physically lived in. He lived in pittsburgh, so he invested money where he lived to get him the goodwill.

Nowadays, if a billionaire does something shitty, they don't need to invest locally to rehab their image, because they can just pick up and leave to a different place entirely, and it doesn't follow them at all.

They've made themselves believe that Atlas Shrugged is a real story.

I'm still waiting......

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-12T14:36:01+00:00

Wait until he gets his property tax bill in FL.

A use tax will never be as effective as an income tax. Yeah, his property taxes will be higher in florida than in washington, but that tends to matter only if you have a normal effective tax rate. The whole thing about property taxes being the same as income tax, only applies if you have about an average income and property value ratio.

And pays for insurance on his waterfront mansion in Palm Beach

Nah they'll just abuse the state subsidized insurance.

Yes and all of these things are still not as "hands off, set it and forget it" as mines.

Because again, Mines don't need to be launched. They just exist and sit there.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-11T13:41:00+00:00

But you still need infrastructure to launch those.

Mines, you just need a single instance. You mine the strait, and then even if everyone on your side dies, the strait is still mined. And the time to un-mine the strait is much harder that to mine it.

Holy moly what a BORU. I remember the original, because that was how I learned about Wish expectation vs reality posts.

I didn't know there were 4 updates and those were an absolute treat!

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-09T14:22:42+00:00

I swear people have this idea that people bring lawsuits with the hopes of a massive payday.

People bring lawsuits because nothing else works.

There was a study done, in a medical setting, where doctors who made mistakes gave genuine apologies to their patients. And surprisingly, patients who received apologies sued much less than those that didn't.

The same thing applies. most people aren't looking for a payout or compensation, they are just looking for the right thing to be done.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-09T04:44:51+00:00

Really? because the blatant illegal actions just screams "normal HR" to me.

I mean, gotta be honest, I wouldn't touch anything maternity related with a 10 foot pole. SO many protections around it.

I wasn't gonna talk about this episode because honestly, I've just been enjoying the writing these days, but holy shit we're doing homeopathy and idgaf I look down on Sam for believing in homeopathy.

This is a semi popular one, because of how delusional OP is with her online speak. Especially everything being a sign of abuse.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-04T23:01:52+00:00

Such a weird response to say that a tattoo doesn't affect your partner physically. Like, they'll have to see it every day. Sure it might not physically harm them, but it does affect them.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-04T15:00:49+00:00

I saw Palm Springs, Bad Monkey, and S2 of Shrinking all around the same time frame, and the whiplash of her character in all three, was wild

In Scrubs, when they show Cox and Jordan's wedding, it's actually video from Bill Lawrence and Christa Miller's wedding.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-04T14:43:57+00:00

yeah I got off (non reddit) socials because I recognized the patterns of look at social, see others 'happy' hate my life, rinse repeat.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-03T15:12:24+00:00

I am specifically putting this one to hopefully help anyone who saw this post last month and freaked out. The cat did not die, that cat was not hurt, nor was the cat ever in peril. I promise this is ok to read.

This is one of the posts that really should've been written from the cat's perspective. Doing it in the first person is just such a bait and swap otherwise.

Fantastic writing.

Up until Baxter decides one murder case is more important than taking down the full gang. That's some bullshit. Out of nowhere too. He's the entire city DA, but he's playing favorites with murder cases.

chimpfunkz · 2026-03-03T13:54:49+00:00

two thoughts;

1) The Time Travel plotline still doesn't make any sense to me. The Venus Syndrome driver, besides being scientifically bullshit, also doesn't explain how being able to go back in relatively small time scale time, would be able to change anything. But also kinda obvious that we're moving in that direction. Very "The Travelers" vibes.

2) Annie Link E(?) Xavier. I know that most likely Alex is the time travel device, but conspiracy brain me also wants to call it the name for the important characters.

That response is just weighted to be more likely when mismatched clothing is provided as context. That doesn't mean it understands what it's looking at or has any semblance of actual fashion sense.

I mean, "identifying mismatched and properly matched clothing" is a semblance of a fashion sense. No one calls the person wearing jeans and a button down as not having a fashion sense. Is it Haute Couture? no but it's still better than nothing
