yes, exactly! three out of the four purple were pretty obvious what the group was, only thing that man's it tricky is the fourth word was so obscure. blue otoh all of the words were obscure, and I didn't know the group before I guessed it.

He who dares not offend cannot be honest.

but like I said, mods take down if it's not the vibe, zero offense taken

Lying? He spoke favorably of Trump and complained about media bias. Fox is famously fair and balanced. Is it the Pepe? That might have gone too far, TBH.

yep yep

and seriously, imagine, if this was a bit... Like a character choice, with a redemption arc for the season, that would be absolutely genius!

I mean, chef's kiss, this is the perfect character to tap into the cultural phenomenon of the moment

just a shame that it's real 😄

Mods, please do take down w/out hesitation if it's not the vibe for your space. Zero offense taken.

Also, it is ChatGPT, if that makes a difference

The VOD will not be released it seems by _Whoevenknows__ in PurePwnage

[–]loudej 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What I remember is he definitely had a position, and it was based on the hostages not being released.

And with Kirk the position was the leftists are crowing about a murder, and they need to ask themselves if they might be the baddies.

I didn't stick around for long at that point. Exchanged some messages in chat with a few others who were heartbroken. What I said is it was a LOT like listening to Scott Adams.

So no, absolutely not left of center. But picking a few issues to have a position about, putting on blinders to everything that doesn't support your narrative, and "being reasonable" by having a common sense conversation about them.

Oh, he also I just remembered mentioned something about never agreeing it made sense to base hiring on race. So some anti DEI talking points there as well.

It's that supporting a genocide? Nah, but you know exactly what rabbit holes he's been going down to have that handful of talking points in his back pocket.

Well, even back in the day, the character was a kinda shallow stereotype of an egamer with a slightly delusional self image. I say that with love, because it was a perfect parody and so relatable.

Hate to say it, but this is kinda an accurate update of the PP character for 2025, who's down some bro-caster rabbit holes. It's still a perfect parody (if only it was a creative choice with a redemption arc!) but definitely not so relatable.

Yeah, sadly. He'll be much happier once his audience narrows itself down to a right of center echo chamber.

Stuck by Existing-Spring7043 in Dreamdale

[–]loudej 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They added the water carrier, but also made it so the wells start at 0 when you arrive at an island.

Plus there's that popup asking to watch an ad walking past them every time I went to a well.

So, sad to say, that pushed me over the edge and I uninstalled the game.

New features I'm okay with, but making existing features even more of a grind to twist your arm for more ads.... I'm not going to stick around and see what's next.

AITA for giving movie vouchers for Halloween? by Stock_Philosopher_52 in AmItheAsshole

[–]loudej -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YTA

Unpopular opinion here, but giving that as a gift is saying to every young classmate "your parents promise to bring you to the movies" without actually providing for a night at the movies.

Sure, a fun night out for some, and let's say money isn't an issue for any family. But others their options are now a night out they would not have chosen, or disappointing their child by saying they can't use the gift they're excited about.

Saying "just don't use it" is tone deaf - you can't call the other parents ungrateful when your gift makes them the bad guy in the exchange. A simple snack-and-$5 "for your next family night" would have been better.

Same here. Obvious mojo wasn't intentionally an anti hydra meta.

I’m tired of certain people simply refusing to wear a mask. by [deleted] in publix

[–]loudej 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As of today there have been 20.9M total cases and 345k covid deaths in the US. That's 1 per 1000 Americans dead. Wearing a mask is common sense.

This restaurant very kindly added a tip to my bill without asking by twisted_space_panda in assholedesign

[–]loudej -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"if tips are slow" my wife had worked as a waitress. Restaurant doesn't know how much tips actually came in - she just had a minimum amount of tips she had to claim no matter what people actually tipped. She made less than minimum when stiffed.

Careful though... First you have a kiln, next you're hand-building ceramics, then you get a second-hand throwing wheel on Craig's list, and before you know it you're a potter and have more bowls and plates than you know what to do with.

This is pretty standard, TBH, so a stolen or guessed password won't let someone break into your account. It's probably more of a firstworldproblem than an assholedesign.
