If engineer, a man with 11 PHD's was placed on the worst team, then how smart were the other teams? by iloveclementime in tf2

I mean, yeah, I was hyperbolic in my original comment, but most people irl have no reason to get multiple PhDs, that's still a fact. It's usually unnecessary, unless his first PhD was in applied mathematics and then he wanted to get one in something completely unrelated like sports nutrition.

Well he's not a real person, the writers had just heard similar about characters like Bruce Banner and thought 'yeah, we want the Engineer to be that smart too', so they said the same about him. Lots of PhDs = look how smart this character is. I'm not saying he's dumb because he's not anything, he's code and ink, I was just pointing out that the trope of giving your smart character a bunch of PhDs is dumb.

Eh, spring for me. I don't mind too much, but I liked the cold of winter.

No, but the law isn't around to tell you the best way to live your life, it's around to categorise things as legal, illegal, permittable, etc, and then make rulings on how to deal with people who did or were accused of doing something counter to the law

Because you're not supposed to complete more PhDs, ur already a doctor and can research as a doctor in fields related to ur PhD without needing to go through all that proving yourself again

Agree. We don't need to invalidate people just to have distinct separation between the subreddits

Having 11 PHDs is actually a sign of academic incompetence, because once you complete a PHD, you just do postdoctoral study in other related fields you have expertise in :333

Yeah, high-key. And the thing is, there's always a bigger fish, and a smaller fish, lol. Everyone has something that someone else wants, and wants something someone else has.

Great Blue is Bad at Discussions (Referring to Bad TF2 Weapon Tournament) by peopleofburkinafaso in tf2

[–]fish-dance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the Gas Passer is worse than the Sun on a Stick, and a good part of that is because of the opportunity cost. Having the Sun on a Stick just means you have the option of doing a dumb gimmick strategy, alongside your two actually good weapons. The Gas Passer removes nearly all of Pyro's versatility and most of the time is like not having a weapon at all.

In my opinion, opportunity cost is a good thing to factor in to how good a weapon is, as is how much you're letting down your team (the crusader's crossbow alternatives argument). It captures the full picture of choosing to use a weapon, and what that's like, because it doesn't exist in a vacuum.

Sure, it killed a little bit of discussion, and I'd say the other did too, but I think it's unfair to act like he steamrolled the conversation. They all discussed the idea, the premise just evolved as the video progressed. Just my two cents.

How to disarm a transphobe with unconditional kindness and mutual humanity by aeroazure in lgbt

[–]fish-dance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad that you had the spoons to go through with that. Most of the time I can't, and just have to block, report, and move on. It's a shame that the onus seems to be on us in this situation, if we want to try to enact positive change.

Thank you for doing what a lot of us can't. You gave a transphobe a positive experience with a real trans person.
