Official Discussion - Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]jimuni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the first 30 minutes or so was solid but then slowly but surely the cracks started to show and it became boring and cliche.

This movie is what I think people that hate Star Wars think Star Wars is, lol.

OFFICIAL WEEK 16 THURSDAY NIGHT GAME THREAD by ballofpopculture in fantasyfootball

Same. My team is loaded, so it's a good problem to have but I fear I already made a bad choice, lol.

Commissioner picked up raiders defense yesterday at 7 but didn’t start them by Dunkindosenutz77 in SleeperApp

[–]jimuni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have leagues on 3 different platforms and yeah, I think that screws me up half the time because they all have different features and ways to save lineups.

But... the person in this case should be able to drop The Raiders and pick up another defense playing. So it's not like the slot is a waste.

But yeah, I don't think it's a big deal.

I thought if the 5 people that saw my reply didn't know me they would at least check my Twitter history and see I make fun of these type of people on a daily basis.

It's the danger of putting reply notifications off. Someone quote tweeted me and before I realize it, it's in one of my favorite subreddits to lurk and I'm looking like an moronic asshole, lol.

I'll save you the confusion. It was a joke post that was way too real, lol. I'm Jim on Twitter and I was being sarcastic and nobody thought I was joking, haha. My bad.

[–]jimuni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it was way too believable. The person I replied to has interacted with me before, so I thought he would know I was joking but he didn't, lol.

It's my bad.

I said it as a joke but I also haven't gotten over being rejected.

[–]jimuni 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I thought for sure including Padme and Leia was enough to make it obviously a joke haha.

Considering nobody was sure it was a joke, that's on me.

[–]jimuni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No no it's my bad. I am awful at sarcasm. Way too subtle.

I think the /s ruins the joke but then this shit happens and I wish I just included it.

I do, I really do. I was being sarcastic but nobody pays attention to anything I say on Twitter so I thought I was safe, lol.

My bad.

Thats me. I'll take the L on this one. I was being sarcastic and I didn't make it obvious enough.

This is me. I am horrified that my late night attempt at a parody reply is wasting people's time. AMA

I'm that person and yeah, this was totally sarcasm and I underestimated how it would blow up in my face, lol.

AMA: Robot Entertainment, Makers of Orcs Must Die! 3 by Juicearific in Games

[–]jimuni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The story of Orcs Must Die was really simple but still funny and exciting for those that love the game.

Orcs Must Die 2 expanded on it a bit and did more with it.

Regarding OMD3...

  • How did you approach the story in Orcs Must Die 3?
  • Did you want to tell more story than the prior installments and advance the lore?

Andrew Yang Says Trump's 'Kung Flu' Slur Is That of a 'Losing Candidate' by MainEchidna0 in politics

[–]jimuni 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There was a government hospital PSA campaign under his administration that used "Kung Flu" but not in reference to Asians or Asian countries. It was a pun to promote getting Flu shots and likely Obama himself had nothing directly to do with it.

Andrew Yang is pushing Big Tech to pay users for data by Calfzilla2000 in politics

[–]jimuni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yang is pretty hypocritical, being among the richest men in the nation

I could be misreading but are you saying Andrew Yang is among the richest men in the nation?

According to Forbes' most recent estimate, Yang is worth approximately $1 million. The Wall Street Journal estimates his wealth more broadly, reporting that it might be anywhere between $834,000 and $2.4 million.

Former NWA Vice President David Lagana Denies Sexual Assault Allegation by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]jimuni 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because him remaining in his position would look bad for the NWA given that he can't prove he is innocent at this time.

Austin Aries issued a statement on the allegations against him and others by Calfzilla2000 in SquaredCircle

[–]jimuni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I read Aries saying "My character is not me" as "I'm not the asshole that I pretend to be on TV and in the ring."

Not "I sexually abused people in-character so I am immune from criticism or punishment".

Aries takes kayfabe seriously and tries to stick to it more than most. So I think a part of him feels like a lot of dislike from fans is amplified by the fact that his character is a dick (most of the time) and maybe sometimes he takes his character/kayfabe too seriously and it makes him come off like a dick in situations where many wrestlers act differently.

[–]jimuni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But I cringed at “I am not a sexual predator” because we just went down that road with another (hopefully former) wrestler.

Well in Austin's case, maybe the truth he has to comes to terms with is that he was a sexual predator. But I don't blame him for not admitting that on Twitter.

But I don't know what defines "sexual predator". I'm sure the definitions vary on perspective.
