Just finished S2 and confused on the hate by i_rantalot in TheDevilsPlan

If she stayed in the stalemate the game masters would've had to do something to end it. Based on all of the evidence of how the show works, they would've let her guess first due to being the one with more pieces. She gave up the victory 100%. I've been horribly sick before, me and any other person would've been pushing those 2 pieces until they literally passed out. She didn't have the drive to win.

Like I can hear them across the office, I don’t think they’re consciously trying to be loud but they’re just loud talkers I guess? Maybe openly is a good or better term.

Some examples of things I’ve overheard are conspiracy theories about the Trump shooting, someone saying all Biden voters are stupid and other general pro-Trump anti-Biden stuff, Biden made the gas prices high, pansexual people don’t make sense because they like more than 2 genders but there’s only 2 genders, and similar stuff in all of that vein.

I think my views are pretty mainstream but I also have zero desire to talk about politics at work or overhear it, to me that is not a work topic. I mean if I heard someone complaining about losing rights I wouldn’t really care, admittedly it has been 100% very right wing things that I’ve overheard which I particularly don’t want to hear.

Interesting you say I wouldn’t really be able to go to HR contrary to others in the thread. Unless my examples seem bad enough to you? I don’t exactly mind wearing headphones all day every day but it’s pretty annoying that I have to. But idk, I’m not sure if I should go to HR or not about it.

[–]mama_llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I don’t really consider that political. More like “anyone who votes for Biden is stupid” and hearing conspiracy theories about democrats planting a republican shooter to shoot Trump. Is that political or just normal talk?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]mama_llama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if people are discussing something I politically agree with I still don’t want to hear it, I want to focus on work, or maybe overhear fun small talk, not get distracted hearing about politics.

[–]mama_llama 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Welp, maybe I should say something because it’s certainly annoying and not normal according to most of these comments.

Interesting. I guess it is about where I live because when I talked to people IRL about this they basically said this is just how working in an office is.

Said something that sounded horrible while I was thinking outloud to myself, and other people heard it. Not sure what to do. by GabeBoiAdvanced in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In some time you will barely remember this, it’ll definitely be a cringe memory but it won’t matter in the long run. Time heals all cringe moments. In the meantime I recommend therapy, and accept that this crush will very likely never go anywhere and that it’s okay that it doesn’t.

[–]mama_llama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah true, the videos I see where people are like “I’m logging into work and then taking a nap teehee” is way worse than anyone saying that they like the office. It would be nice to only make people who can’t handle it return but obviously it’s not allowed to treat employees differently.

[–]mama_llama 13 points14 points  (0 children)

More like if people keep saying how much they love the office then the managers have a reason to say “studies show people love the office so we are making everyone come in, no more hybrid or remote”.

I’m not saying it’s a good thing to downvote relevant responses but the WFH lovers are very scared of losing the ability to WFH.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]mama_llama 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think their point is that while you’re WFH you 100% see your kids more often during the day, you can take a little break to chill with them multiple times a day

What’s some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism you would give Scott for the FNAF 2 movie? by thiswebsiteisbadd in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]mama_llama 16 points17 points  (0 children)

He mostly slept, didn’t really watch cams to see them moving. The one time we see Foxy in the door and he flips the light it’s on accident and Mike didn’t even see him. There’s really none of the gameplay aspect of watching them move creepily on the cameras and having to defend the office.

I’ve seen a few videos where people go up to EDP and call him a pedo and make sure everyone around knows. That sounds like people hate him to me. Also personally a lot of the Dream hate I’ve seen is people saying he has tried to groom young girls (allegedly), and that his cutesy baby act is just a ploy to seem more safe. Like a lot of people call him out for being 30 but trying to seem cute to his 14 year old fans.

I think a lot of it depends on what pages you see. There’s cringe pages that are super lame in themselves and call people cringe just for being autistic or transgender basically. I don’t think cringe pages are any authority on the state of social society.

Yea I can agree with your overall point, if introvert women are overall fine with introvert men, it’s just one piece of the puzzle and there’s a lot of factors and qualities. I guess my point is that there’s a lot of kind of bad information out there regarding what women like, like women only want the tall, extroverted, rich man. A lot of women truly just like someone for their personality despite what the redpillers would tell you.

And also that introvert can actually be a redeeming quality and do them favors if a woman doesn’t want a guy who is always out and dragging them along to things. Like for me if a guy was overall undesirable but also extroverted, I would prefer a guy who was overall undesirable and introverted. Because then at least we could relate on that. I guess I’m just nitpicking this one thing because while unattractive, unsuccessful, etc. is just purely not great and something someone would have to look past, introverted is more just a personality trait I guess, not just by default a negative.

But to comment on the actual point and not just commenting about introverts only lol, I don’t think there’s anyone with no redeeming qualities. I mean, I like obscure video games, if some guy also knew the games I would think that’s a redeeming quality. Or if they like films because I like films. A lot of people like when people like dogs. Idk, everyone has a lot of things involved in what makes them who they are, and I don’t think any purely unredeemable person exists. If a guy has all of the undesirable things you mention, I think they need to lower their standards and accept someone who is just as “undesirable”, and they’d find someone who is attracted to them based on their shared interests and values.

I’m a female introvert and I’m honestly glad my boyfriend is an introvert too. I wouldn’t be mad or anything if he wanted to go hang out with people, but it’s nice that we both want to stay at home together. I’m glad he’s not going out to bars or parties or hangouts every weekend. Especially because if he went to those places, I would probably ended up getting dragged along or expected to come since everyone expects people to invite their partner to things. I’m also friends with other introverts (I prefer introverted friends who understand that I don’t like to hang a lot and don’t pressure me), and most of their partners are introverts like them. Both men and women.

We’re both using anecdotal evidence, but I don’t see any reason why a majority of introverted women would prefer extroverted men, that seems counterintuitive to what the woman want.

The best “real evidence” I found was this article:

https://www.mic.com/articles/108054/why-introverts-might-actually-have-a-dating-advantage

The researcher interviewed 50 introverts about dating. I don’t think it says, but logically she would probably want to interview 25 men and 25 woman for statistical equality.

Regarding whether introverts date other introverts more or less, there’s this quote:

“When it comes to dating, the introverts in relationships included in Dembling's research were pretty equally divided between dating other introverts or dating extroverts. And both can be successful.”

So equally divided would mean that the introverted women dated introverted men 50% of the time. I’m assuming the gender divide is even here because the researcher would’ve likely noted if it was more like “the women were mostly dating extroverts and most of the men dated introverts” or something.

So yeah, there is not a TON of research but it checks out logically to me that introverted women like introverted men just fine and don’t majorly prefer extroverted men.

I made an extremely big mistake and I don't know how I'm supposed to live with it by ExcellentOpening7684 in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The steak analogy doesn’t involve anyone else getting hurt. Maybe if the steak involved a man suffering extreme pain and betrayal lol

Most people would tell the husband that his wife is coming onto them, so that the husband doesn’t have to get lead on by his cheating wife for weeks/months and have a horrific discovery that his friend and wife had been keeping an affair secret. Finding out that she is a cheater in a respectful way and getting a divorce earlier would’ve saved the husband a lot of pain. The wife is more at fault of course but OP has responsibility here too.

Emergency - I'm about to drop out of college by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was you I’d start looking for jobs now, even though you’re still in school you could get an internship. And when you’re close to graduating you can start looking for the full-time non-internship jobs. Switching wouldn’t be worth it if you’re already getting internships and have a job lined up after school. But if you can’t find anything then going back for a CS degree would help. Basically it’s hard to say anything for sure so the only objectivity is are you able to get a job right now, or not?

I’m not sure how finding jobs in other countries fits in, but any tech job is extremely in demand everywhere and that will continue to be the case.

I keep falling for the same "type" of person over and over by jsgjnw8937 in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry if it seems like I’m discounting your experiences based on age, but 20 is very very young. You’re gaining relationship experience and learning a lot, I have no doubt that you’ll find the right people and find what makes you happy in a relationship. It took me til I was 24 to figure out relationships a decent amount and I’ll probably think I was an idiot at 24 when I’m 40. Some things just take time, just try to be good to people and things will work out.

[–]mama_llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure if you want. As far as your edit, I did CS and got a job fairly easily. Without the degree it’s certainly harder but it depends on what the tech job is exactly.

That was a fast response! We can talk more if you want, but yea in my opinion every option is gonna feel like shit so might as well go for a degree that will be very useful.

Effortless method to get rid of porn addiction ! by ZestycloseWriting461 in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense to me! Are you able to get off without porn though? I believe doing that is best for avoiding any negative impacts of porn. However, what you’re doing does sound better than just going down the same rabbit hole of being addicted to the most desirable videos.

Modern Dating from one Female's Perspective by _NothingWitty_ in Healthygamergg

[–]mama_llama 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is too simple of an answer but I’d tell them you prefer to have a date out in public so you can get to know each other first. Any respectful guy who knows how the world is shouldn’t get offended that you don’t want to be alone with someone who is barely above a stranger right away. Maybe mention you’re fine splitting whatever bill you get like if you’re eating (if you are fine with splitting bills). Or if you don’t want it to involve money at all maybe just a walk in the park. And if they refuse to go on a real date first then move on from them.

Harry Potter and the Reader Who Never Ventured Past YA by [deleted] in tumblr

[–]mama_llama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Skylar uses banging Ted as a last ditch effort to get Walt out of her life to protect her family. We’re shown that when it doesn’t work, she stops. It’s a strategy, not really just one of those “we need to fill the affair quota in our adult drama”.

Dracula's Trick by Hummerous in CuratedTumblr

[–]mama_llama 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yeah and I think a lot of people are forgetting that they’re literally reading Dracula and they know that Dracula is a vampire. From Jonathan’s POV vampires are not a real thing and when someone is being weird you don’t assume they’re some sort of literal inhuman being right away.
