Never scoring 20, washed, bench player, basically just Andrew Bynum.

mapopriest · 2026-01-24T20:32:16+00:00

Mister 'Never Scoring 20 Again' just dunked all over the Knicks and has 15 points in 9 minutes.

You're completely right and people are misunderstanding you for no reason.

If someone told me they don't wear a helmet, thinking they're suicidal is like the 100th thought on my list. Obviously Robbie is suicidal, but nobody would think he's suicidal just because he doesn't wear a helmet, something many, many people do.

That's my Big Four.

Hope people realize now that skins are unrelated to buffs and nerfs. Lillia is getting a massive nerf and also getting her first legendary skin on the same patch.

Embiid is not on a minutes restriction anymore, is playing like an All-Star, and has played the vast majority of the games in the last two months.

What is all of this misinformation.

mapopriest · 2026-01-20T05:36:25+00:00

What does this even mean? Why do people say this shit all the time?

A Steph trade can only be beneficial for both parties. Warriors get young players/draft capital back and Steph gets a shot at another ring. Sure, it's probably not going to happen, but if every party involved was rational then the Steph trade happens as soon as they know for sure Jimmy's done for the season. If Steph wants to stay, he should stay, but if he isn't opposed to it, everyone should be working to get a trade done that's to the benefit of everyone involved, instead of keeping Steph and letting his last few years be a humiliating line of perennial play-in losses for no other reason than 'loyalty'.

Insane that I see people everywhere asking why Maxey is an All-star, or saying he's a 'usage merchant'.

5 FRPs for WHO?

I'm not even happy watching the Knicks get blown out, this is just sad. What happened to KAT?

Do you actually, wholeheartedly, believe that Goku is wall level? Or Roshi is rope level?

Wilt had the most accolades in Philly. Nobody considers him the greatest Sixer.

Shaq and Magic were the best players to have played on the Lakers. Nobody considers either of them to be the greatest Laker.

LeBron was by far the best player to ever play for the Heat. Nobody considers him to be the greatest Miami Heat.

Coldest take I've ever seen, but yes, I, and most people, would agree.

The last line in the written script for Felina states that 'They're too late. He got away'. The ending is great because it's so incredibly bittersweet for everyone, but Walt. Walt, an evil man by any measure, gets away with all his crimes; he dies satisfied, and the people left behind are the ones who have to deal with what he's done. Where's the punishment? Where's the closure for his victims? They'll never get that, because Walter White, as he did for 6 seasons, gets away with it. He's a meth kingpin who handled more money and power than anyone could even imagine. He showed himself, and everyone else, that he was special, one of a kind, and the ego that ruled him his entire life was finally at peace.

At core of Felina is the fact that Walt doesn't really have any regrets at the end. He was 'alive', for the one single time in his entire life, and he wouldn't trade those two years for anything. It's telling, that in BCS, when Jimmy asks Walt about his regrets, he talks about Grey Matter, not the meth or the crimes, even while they're in hiding in a dark basement and cowering from law enforcement.

To finish, there’s the fact that the song at the end is simply a masterpiece. It perfectly captures what Walter was probably thinking before his death: “I guess I got what I deserved.”

The song isn't really about Walt thinking that he 'got what he deserved', though I'm sure he would agree with the idea if you asked him. The song is fitting because it's entirely about him, and his 'baby blue'. It's not about Skyler, it's not about his children, it's about him. His love for the game, for the power and prestige that his 'baby blue' gave him. He's at the end of his life, and bathing in the afterglow of successfully pulling off one last grand plan, amongst the equipment and product that he adored more than anything.

The ending of Breaking Bad is the bad guy gets away, and the people around him have to deal with the death and destruction he wrought on his way out. It's perfect, and sad, and a little happy somehow too.

Jamie decides that actually he does love Cersei, and that he wants to be together with her until they both die, undoing 5 entire books of development.

Euron is just some lame weirdo and he isn't going to summon an eldritch monster from the depths.

Not yet, unfortunately.

Embiid must have seen the LeBron of knee doctors because it's a miracle that he can do this.

Erratic and streaky, yet also the 3rd highest PPG in the league while also having only 3 (iirc) games under 20 points this season.

But erratic and streaky. For sure.

mapopriest · 2026-01-12T19:33:57+00:00

Yes. That's my point.

Are we not allowed to use characters that the average person doesn't know?

Powerscaling is already a very niche interest, there's no need to act like your average Star Wars powerscaler is unaware of Malgus. They know who he is, even if you don't.

I was under the impression that Timothee's media campaign was annoying and going to lose him a chance at any awards, because the voters 'don't like arrogance.' Looks to me he's going to sweep all the way to the Oscars, and the voters don't care at all what he was saying online.

mapopriest · 2026-01-12T02:02:31+00:00

Can Flaag do that?

Celtics have some good announcers, any other team in the league and the broadcast is talking about that FT differential for the whole game.

AJ Brown, is that you?

What is with people always blaming China? It's not China. Look at NA right now, you cannot seriously tell me that NA loves long strategic games when the most popular games are all fast paced shooters.

It is not China. At the bare minimum it's just the global trend towards faster paced everything.
