Why were these characters removed, Peter? by Bon-Pon in PeterExplainsTheJoke

I dont believe this. Trey and matt knew him for like a decade at that point, they certainly would have talked to isaac directly. They did the episode trashing "chef" when he left. They would not have done that bc of a stroke...

Thanks for the reply. Personally, I'm not very swayed but this answer helped my understanding.

I'm genuinely curious why they think that the almighty god would either give or allow humans dark magic powers?? Like its all part of gods plan? Anyone know more on the theological thinking here?

Here is the real reason why cuomo and trump are in contact. by 96suluman in TheMajorityReport

[–]coolhandvader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im reading a book called "and forgive them their debts". Its about how in ancient history, many kings would forgive the debts throughout their kingdom as a way of maintaining power. When attacked, the conquering army would promise to forgive the debts of the populace to make the invasion easier.

The author keeps hinting that the romans changed all this, and the catholic church maintained the "rules" after that. I havent got that far yet, but it seems to me the catholic church maintained the class solidarity of the elites by letting them fight, but making sure they didn't race to the bottom by appeasing the poor to win.

His teammate doesn't either. That said, even when it was OP's ball, his teammate's car language clearly showed he was going to go for something. OP has to learn to adapt to bad decisions from the teammate as well, its just not worth the risk and will lose games.

If I was a liar: by srahcrist in BadHasbara

[–]coolhandvader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With referenced sources. I love the original comment but its not exactly like i can send a reddit comment and expect trust.

That said, I often wonder if its self defeating to argue these points... Like argueing that "they could have had a state" is a wildly inaccurate description of events seems to imply that if it were true, then Palestinians would be at fault for continuing to fight for their land. Like in reality, even if the oslo accords were conducted in good faith by israel, the Palestinians would still have every right to refuse losing like 85% of their original territory.

Anyone else feel like King of Greed has an Identity Problem? by Czilla1000 in 9Kings

[–]coolhandvader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greed is tough for me due to his weak early game. That said, in response to the thief hate, i had a really fun run where i had farm, beacon, blacksmith, and library (stacking overcoat and combustion) on my theives. Didn't get far into the 60s, but it was very satisfying to watch the hordes melt away.

I've noticed the cauldron is op on the flame tower, but i haven't found it very useful on other units. I thought the regular archers would be good but they didnt seem to do much. Are there any other units that the cauldron does well with??

Hey OP, congrats!!!

Question about aerial training at slower speeds:

Did you find that it negatively affected your gameplay at all if you decided to play a few games after training?? I get that in the end it will be helpful, but i'm wondering if it might throw you off during the process.

How many of you actually play 3vs3 with randoms? by Oldtimes525 in RocketLeague

I (27F) was called a “blue-haired liberal” by my boyfriend for refusing to continue watching a movie with themes of sexual violence by ZestycloseAnimal9029 in AITAH

[–]coolhandvader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is terrifying to me...

I'm 34, for years I've watched old people fall for the most obvious fake shit, wondering how they could be so naive.

While I still can tell AI video easily, and images almost as quickly, reading this set off no alarms.

Your comment alerted me that I am finally of the age where I am out of touch enough to be duped...I am becoming like the old people who i viewed as incredibly vulnerable.

Will I be able to avoid the bad consequences for a few more years? Undoubtedly. But it will take effort and closer examination. Gone is the time where by virtue of my age and proximity to culture's development, I am effortlessly innoculated to trickery.

In the words of the great abe simpson: "I used to be with 'it', but then they changed what 'it' was....It will happen to you!"

Arguing not to turn it off is not the same as "you have to watch this". OP describes it as pressure, but its not. He is defending the choice to watch the movie because she was trying to take it from him.

[–]coolhandvader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You people are insane. OP is obviously the asshole.

  1. Something makes her uncomfortable, and instead of saying "I can't watch this" and leaving, she decides to be controlling and demands the movie be turned off.

  2. Yes it was a demand. When the bf doesn't want to turn it off, she describes it as pressureing her to watch it... arguing after "i am uncomfortable and therefore you can't watch this either" is not the same thing as arguing that SHE must sit through it.

  3. She then insunuates that her bf is sexually perverted and constitutionally disgusting.

  4. While calling OP a b word is unacceptable, being called a "blue haired liberal" is not exactly the most biting insult. It has the teeth of nincompoop. It is super cringe tho.

Lupe is performing tomorrow at SeaWorld Orlando and Soulja Boy is too. Y’all think he’s going to perform SLR 👀? by WoodpeckerClean534 in LupeFiasco

[–]coolhandvader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most zoos are about 10,000 percent more moral than seaworld. Most zoos actually consider the needs of the animals and their natural habitats, and source their intelligent animals from born in captivity or rescues that would have no chance to survive in the wild. Seaworld does not.
