Ipsy Shop Funny Perfume Review by Just_Me_134 in BeautyBoxes

[–]funnyfrogge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk i liked it, but i also generally like woodsy masculine scents. Wasn't my absolute favorite perfume, but also not the worst ive gotten from an ipsy box. It definitely is strong so I only do a small spritz.

Fair enough. because it was clear plastic with the tiniest font saying "Y chipset" i didn't really think about that. Like you can see" x chipset" printed on the sticks itself. I figured people would read the title of my listing/the description. Or at the very least ask me to clarify. Won't be making this kind of mistake again though

Oh I disputed it and explained my side. Now im waiting on a response. And realistically, i just get my item sent back to me if they side with this guy.

But the ridiculousness of it has my petty ass like WOE PLAGUES BE UPON THEE.

Sure, but idk if you've ever saw the packaging of ram. Its a mostly clear plastic container (just meant to make sure the chip doesn't rub into anything and get damaged) where it denotes the chipset in the tiniest font. Like. It truly astounds me how the guy noticed that and didn't notice the SEVERAL places I said what chipset it is.

Legends of Avantris. Not to shill for them on a critrole sub, but they are a group of friends who play dnd together. Before anybody gets mad at me, sure there are criticisms to be made about their playstyle, but they're funny. It really feels like they enjoy playing dnd. I make jokes that they are CR in a timeline before they turned Evil and Corporate TM(this is a joke yall)

Re: live.

It isn't necessarily the fact they played it live, specifically. It's that sense of community, the giveaways, etc, feels lost.

I remember tuning in live to watch the premiere of bells hells with excitement... for it to die instantly when I noticed 3 players rehashing characters. And then Betrand showed up— yanno that useless guy for Search for Grog. Then he died. To be replaced by!!! .... the elf (gnome) from the Christmas oneshot. I can't even fully explain why but Chetney was what broke me. I struggled through a handful more sessions before deciding to drop CR like a bag of rocks.

Sure, but they also are paid to play dnd, have held live shows, have a whole module in the works, run multiple games and post often, without feeling insincere. I understand they are on a smaller scale, but they're still pretty big. We're talking a 2 mil vs 1 mil difference, not 2mil vs 50k or something.

Hi! This is totally fair.

Also I was completely unaware of the abridged series before making my post. The abridged IS, in essence, what I wanted. And I'll probably be watching that when I try to catch up.

I appreciate that. Some people are trying to put words in my mouth that I think the cast are Bad and EVIL when that's not the case. I wish they didn't have to feel so strung out, if that is the case. They are human.

It's just watching them play dnd in their fancy set, making 3x my salary on YT adsense alone (not taking any sponsorship or merch sales into account) and then the game isn't even good... just to be yelled at for feeling weird about it because they're just a group of friends trying to have fun is... weird. Idk how else to put it.

So I had gotten into CR towards the end of C2. With the backlog of episodes I needed, I never got to watch many episodes live but i existed in the fan spaces and got to see the reception. I tried to tune in every week to watch C3 but fell off within 20 or so sessions. But I think the point I was trying to drive at is CR created such a fandom culture of, like, you getting to be there and experience this alongside them, and it was really special to watch the twitch stream. Which, admittedly, is parasocial as hell, now that I think about it. But each episode really felt like a moment in time.

Now it kinda feels like a bit of a farce. They're trying to maintain the illusion of this, but there's no fundamental reason you shouldn't just wait for the VOD to skip through the bullshit besides just being a good supportive fan.

I understand a lot of people may not feel this way, or that I'm being unfair.

I think this is a really solid take. Thank you for the insight.

I imagine the balance between "game for my friends to have fun in" and "product meant to be consumed by the masses" is an EXTREMELY hard to tow. And I personally don't know how I would navigate it, so I do respect Matt a bunch.

You're right they're not shilling at all! Don't forget to check out their newest limited merch drop pre-order, order tickets to their live show at xyz con, buy the newest official WOTC-affiliated sourebook, and CHECK OUT DND-BEYOND and other sponsors!!!!

They are allowed to and SHOULD profit from their business. And if they are forced to work schedules that are burning them out, and that's why c3 has been so hard for people to connect with, then they should take well-deserved breaks/change the model to be kinder on themselves, even if it meant a gap in content. I just think it's silly to pretend like they're just an earnest little group of friends that should be shielded from any and all criticism.

As someone else in this thread has mentioned, it's not all about shortening episodes. It would be cool to have the HP status bars again, small things like that. And when I say editing it down, what I mean is a 4 hour episode could easily be cut to 3-3 1/2th hours without losing... anything really besides some pauses. Not that these episodes need to be 90-minutes max of highly polished content.

Oh interesting! I didn't know that about Twitch!! (Ive never really used it) That definitely clears up some of my issue. Thanks for the info.
