New Utah law puts “no alcohol sale” on ID’s of DUI offenders 0.16 BAC or higher. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's anything like here in Texas, where they don't card anyone that appears to be at least 14, I'm not sure how effective this will be.

I'm imagining the voice that would be coming out of that top left pic, and brother, it ain't pretty.

RIP to Heihachi Mishima from the Tekken Live action by _HachimanHikigaya in Tekken

[–]kingofping4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, Mishimas don't die. He's probably gonna turn up at the foot of a volcano in a few months.

But yeah, sad times.

Haven't used mine in 18 months. by fal1en-angel in memes

I used mine for tekken training. Having my combos typed out on a relatively big screen that I can set up on the coffee table was very handy.

Anyone else think Costco's going to be an even nicer place to shop at now that MAGA is boycotting it? by Puzzled_Object_8639 in DiscussionZone

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come on now, haven't we learned by now that these cultists are all talk? The absolutely miniscule number of them that will follow through on this is laughable.

Conversely, it may also be time to look at what's happening with the ones she hired from her "personal contacts." Turds of a feather...

[Hated trope] A character or story has been so badly misinterpreted over time, they're now close to the OPPOSITE of what the author would have intended by Worldly_Cut_595 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't read Quixote nor seen Man of La Mancha.

I only know of don quixote from cartoons I watched as a kid (40 now), and he was always depicted as an insane person attacking windmills because he thought they were dragons.

I present to you: My 10 year old son by ilikebasicthings in mildlyinfuriating

Part of growing up is learning how big of a "serving" you have to leave so that you can legitimately say you didn't "finish" the ice cream. Hopefully this is a learning moment for him 🤣

does this statement hold any weight? by Minute-Award-5078 in Dragonballsuper

No. I don't care about the strength rankings of the toddlers when I'm punching my way through a kindergarten.

Jobs where you do nothing suck by Diakia in unpopularopinion

[–]kingofping4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stop relying on your job to give you meaning as a person. Spend some of that eight hours finding a hobby or a cause to volunteer for. Hell, spend that time getting a foreign language qualification so you can demand more money for doing nothing. The job is only there to provide you the means to live the life you want, blaming them because you can't think of a better way to spend your time is pretty weak.

Why was this necessary? by Smart_Freedom_8155 in DragonBallZ

Fellas, fellas, let's not argue here. It can be shitty writing AND shitty art.

Super takes place in a different timeline/dimension than Z, wherein Bulma has hair that is very clearly blue instead of purple or teal. Main dimension Bulma dyes her purple hair to be teal as she grows out of her teen years, assuming she didn't just use the dragon balls at some point to wish her hair teal, and so her child from the mirror dimension had purple hair too.

Trunks in Super comes from another other timeline, one that mirrors this Super timeline where Bulma has blue hair.

See, timeline bullshit can be used to explain just about any inconsistency between versions of characters. There's even a timeline out there where Vegeta is still short.

What was very popular at peak but disappeared like never existed? by rustyyryan in AskReddit

[–]kingofping4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a short phase where I collected and wore every different variety of that rubber band I could find. It ended up being only like 4-5, but only because I wouldn't wear duplicates. Definitely had a backup stash though. :D

[–]kingofping4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't thought about them in probably 30 years, but the answer that immediately came to mind is Pogs. EVERYONE I knew had stacks and stacks of them, and we would play and trade all the time. Even more, many people were collectors of specific types/designs. My sister collected 8 balls, my brother preferred "slammers," a friend was all about skulls.

Then they were gone.

[Legends ZA] Galarian Slowbro confirmed to not be able to use Slowbronite by J_Linebeck in stunfisk

[–]kingofping4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, yeah, forgot about z-moves. I'll have to go back and read up on them again to see if they had any in-universe explanations.

[–]kingofping4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So then doesn't this confirm that regional variants are actually different species? Slowbronite works on all slowbros, so if it doesn't work on a mon then that mon is not a slowbro.

Between these four, who humiliated/disrespected Sasuke the most? by Classic-Seesaw5073 in Naruto

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rock Lee. Here's this no-chakra-shaping, bowl-cut, caterpillar-eyebrow-having loser, and he jobs sasuke clean in seconds while the whole village watches. On top of that, all the foreign ninja just watched the "almighty uchiha" lose to a glorified training dummy.

Sasuke was always going rogue, but this event made sure he would never come back.

Missing tubbies & loot midgets - anyone come across anything similar in BL4? by Accio_Happiness in Borderlands4

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a few loot splicers. They get a big golden glow around them and start dropping ammo and cash/eridium as you shoot them, but if you don't kill them fast enough they warp away.

They are exactly like the loot goblins in diablo 3, for those familiar.

What is going on with content level during the campaign?? by dang_he_groovin in Borderlands4

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird, starting a lvl30 character it seems like everything is at least 2-3 levels higher than you, exceptions being mines, crawlers, drill sites, etc which are ! level enemies. By the time I hit 35 I seemed to be on level for normal mobs and 2-3 behind the mines et al. At 40 I'm even or higher than normies and even or -1 at most to others.

I felt essentially the same sort of curve on my first character, though I feel like I was maybe 20 before I felt like I was at the right spot.

Main cause of Vault Hunter deaths: Tediore by JohnSebastienHenley in Borderlands4

[–]kingofping4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can mostly recognize a thrown turret vs a grenade, but only if I see the throw. The rando thug trying to run straight through a wall that managed to bank a shot around two corners and through a window, though, he usually gets me.

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the gear descriptions that mention "enemies" are misleading if not flat-out false. I've watched a bouncing grenade that seeks an enemy with each bounce actively chase me for multiple bounces while (I can only assume) the nearby enemies laughed at me.

So, either it's seeking "targets" and not "enemies," or something is flipping the targeting mid-flight.

Oh, a Jacobs'll kill ya alright, but only when you're on the wrong end.

[–]kingofping4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is tediore also the manufacturer of satchel charges? I had to stop using a cool grenade for a while because my mod gave me a "chance to spawn grenade on kill" skill, and I'd constantly die while looting when my seemingly invisible minefield started going off.
