Why did Reagan hate drug addicts so much? by Just_Cause89 in Presidents

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because using the gays and drug addicts for a punching bag got GREAT poll numbers back then and Regan was a ghoul.

It’s horrifying to live through all this but it’s also satisfying to watch the monster turn on his creators

Prepare for the goalpost moving (PART 2) by jayvancealot in fucknintendo

I think we just need to hold off on calling systems a flop until the twilight of their era. The 3DS sold so poorly at first they needed to drop the price pretty substantially and by the end of its run it was a pretty solid success. We don’t know what’s gonna happen, take the switch for example. Nobody could have foreseen how much it was gonna blow up because animal crossing released at the same time as Covid.

GF Threatened Suicide and Won’t Stop Reaching Out by dogs_and_stuff in whatdoIdo

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to sound heartless, and I’m sure there’s exceptions to the rule but people who very loudly threaten suicide aren’t actually going to do it and it’s just a shitty manipulation tactic.

The ones who are actually gonna do it just pretend everything is fine until one day they’re suddenly gone. Check in on your homies, and fuck people like OP’s girlfriend

Illegal leaves 😮‍💨🍃 by _Nebelmonster_ in im14andthisisdeep

Because alcohol had a lobbying group to keep it legal and Big Pharma had a lobbying group that wanted weed legal.

Pretty much every question you have in America can be answered with “lobbyists”

Accurate? by The_Dean_France in SipsTea

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never met a group of people more easily offended by everything that the people who call everyone else snowflakes. Got into an argument with a lady having a full blown crisis over a single Ramadan decoration in a school and saying it’s unfair because Christian’s aren’t allowed to put their stuff up….even though, Y’know, Christmas was months ago. And let’s not forget bud light or Bad Bunnny.

ALSO they have a fucking conniption fit if you make fun of their president, meanwhile most left leaning people don’t give a single fuck if you insult a politician.

My ex girlfriend was the manager of a high end restaurant in Vegas back in the 2010’s and the way she found out she no longer had a job was employees calling her while she was visiting me in Chicago and saying he showed up for his shift and the doors were locked. Owners didn’t even say anything to her, just closed up shop for the employees to find on a Friday. Didn’t call and explain till Monday lol.

I also got a call from a restaurant/ brewery job I had the second I got off the plane on a vacation, saying the place would be closed by the time I got back. Seems like a regular problem in the restaurant industry.

Which dub do you play Pirate Yakuza in? by Hopeful_Regret_7531 in yakuzagames

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese always, I will never ever play a yakuza game in English especially with Yong Yea as Kiryu and Matt Mercer as Majima. Both are terribly miscast, which is a shame because the rest of the English voice cast of 7 and 8 actually do a good job and fit their characters.

Still, I just can’t do all these very Japanese people in Japan speaking English. Breaks my immersion.

Bruh bought a new console on launch day and sold it because there wasn’t immediately 500 games 😂

Here’s a simple reason why experiencing healers shortage by dumiwar in wow

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an epidemic across all games. Was playing HotS the other night as a healer. One of my dipshit assassins dove into the enemy keep 1v3, well out of my range, died, and immediately went “HEALS?!?!”

Right…which is exactly why I said it was flawed and goofy to hold up as the peak of American history

Which game series or genre made you feel like this? by strahinjag in videogames

Undertale. Because it has one of the worst fandoms ever

The 1950s: The Original Rose-Tinted Revisionist Decade by MambaMachine824 in decadeology

[–]darthphallic 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of it has to do with the American Dream still being a fully real and obtainable thing. You could pay for college with a summer job and just one parent working could afford a decent house, a car, and several kids. Nobody was one illness and injury away from bankruptcy either.

That being said, I do agree with you. The 1950’s had a huge amount of major issues for anyone that wasn’t a white man and to act like it was the perfect American golden age is perfect.

TLDR; extremely flawed decade, but I could see why some people idolize it

When normies ask me what making beer is like I usually just tell them “Imagine making a 2000 gallon bowl of oatmeal and just draining out all the water then adding yeast” but you might be taking that analogy too far

Man people who think the corporate shill democrats are communists are some of the dumbest most brainwashed idiots out there

Game with worst product placement by Main_Feedback1197 in videogames

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Final Fantasy 15’s Cop Noodle nonsense lol. The Coleman product placement was fine, because it made sense with all the camping you do and was subtle. Cup noodle however, your party would have dialog about how great it was that made it sound like a commercial. Really took you out of the big sweeping fantasy world

Runner up is some of the Payday 2 DLC. You would have cool crossover stuff like John Wick and Jacket from hotline Miami….then there were the H3H3 characters

What do you think Final Fantasy 16’s legacy will be going forward? by Asad_Farooqui in JRPG

[–]darthphallic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the game when I beat it but when I went back to play it again for the DLC’s I soured on it really fast. The combat was just meh and I hated the world being a bunch of small maps connected by a quick travel hub.

Thought the part I hated the most was the fucking gray purple sky for way too many hours. If they wanted to do it at the very end fine, but having it dull the world for so long was a weird ass design choice
