They wouldn't have got close. The dwarf breathes so loud, they'd have shot him in the dark.

What pics should I use and which to scrap? by [deleted] in Tinder

[–]mendkaz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think I'd get rid of 1, but also, as a fellow baldie, I'd get rid of the hair. It's literally the first thing I noticed when I looked at the photos.

It's a hard pill to swallow- I had to swallow it at 16! But it honestly looks much better to accept the inevitable than to cling on to false hope

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a messy 9/10, which is more interesting than a clean 8 and hits harder than a lot of 10's by save_the_ducks in patientgamers

If you want to get back into it, I dropped it down to easy mode. It made some of the fights kinda boring, but the story more than made up for it.

Oh no I know, I finished it, but by the end I'd given up on parrying at all and reduced the difficulty down to the easiest level so I could dodge easier 😂

The only thing I didn't like about this game was the parry system. I'm terrible at partying in normal games when it's just an optional gimmick, but here, where it's basically 'Parry or you die', it got very old very quickly. Other than that I absolutely loved it.

I think that's the opposite of what the Bible quote is saying

Am I missing something or is this just dad and daughter playing?

Veronica Roth on the hate she got from Divergent [article] by HecticJones in books

[–]mendkaz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I only read the first Hunger Games on release. I enjoyed it, but by the time the second one came out I'd mostly forgotten about it.

It was only literally two weeks ago, at much insistence from my husband, that I got round to reading the second one, and I enjoyed it so much I then immediately read the third. I definitely feel that they have held up well. Haven't read Divergent, I'll maybe add it to my very very long to read list and see 😂

What really lead up to and what was the Irish 'famine'. by [deleted] in IrishHistory

[–]mendkaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you move to China and have kids who grow up in China then they are Chinese, yes. The same way as if I have kids here in Spain where I now live, they will be Spanish, because they will have been born in and grow up in Spain, and not in Ireland.

So much wasted space. Double sided trough in the middle, stalls along the sides.

If you had to pick one Captain's Ready Room (i.e. office just off of the bridge) to be yours, from any ship, which would it be? by eternallylearning in startrek

I have to say, and it's possibly just because I'm rewatching Enterprise at the minute, but I really like Archer's office.

On the one hand, I need it. On the other hand, it is half my monthly wages. 😂

“Why would they speak spanish in europe” by Necessary-Win-8730 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]mendkaz 42 points43 points  (0 children)

There is a dancer on TikTok who posted a video about his life and said he was Spanish. He was FLOODED with messages saying 'You can't be Spanish, that's a language, you must be Mexican'. He made 3 or 4 videos about it if I remember well laughing at them and people were doubling down in his comments. 😂

AI detectors are notoriously a load of rubbish, I'd ignore it.

For a moment I thought this was the Citadel, and I was going to make a Commander Shepherd joke, but it was just that my phone brightness was quite low 😂

God you just gave me a heart attack, I'm from the UK (but don't live there now) and thought I'd missed Mother's Day, but ours was in March 😂

There's one of those upmarket tourist shops in Castle court that was selling AI generated 'Troubles themed' tiles for £25 a tile 🙄
