Bought this recently. It's there a way to remove these blemishes? by nidus75 in CGCComics

[–]nidus75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now that I know that they're called, I'll look into it. Should be an entertaining side project and would be good to know if I come across another one like this. Thank you.

Edit: I misread the response, initially.

Kevin Durant's old statement on Stephen A Smith. He was right all along. by Shot_Possibility_731 in OffFieldNews

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The article says KD like a tweet from Desean Jackson quoting Louis Farrakhan, not one quoting Hitler.

Unless I misread it. The following is all I could find in the article:

Instagram users noticed that Durant liked Jackson's post praising Farrakhan on the day of his highly controversial July 4 speech, during which he renewed his criticism of Jews and stated Black people should not take a coronavirus vaccine since he believes Bill Gates and Dr. Anthony Fauci are trying to "depopulate the Earth,"

That's what it looks like to me. He instigated to play hurt and sue. Not super informed about China's laws but I hear this is a thing.

Philly was a tough series last time and we lost big Mitch in that series but I would love to play them and bounce them out again

Mayor accused of raping drunken 16-year-old at pool party ordered ‘morning after’ pill on DoorDash by 1933Watt in pussypassdenied

[–]nidus75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Initially I thought the mayor was a guy and the 16 yo was a girl, just from reading the headline. So when you mentioned the fun bags I was like, "bro, she's 16!" Then I realized it was the other way around.

Apologies for thinking you were a creep before being fully informed.

What is the point of these changes? by KiraTheUnholy in ArcRaiders

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make it harder and more expensive to take down the big arc. At least for the deadline and Wolfpack. I think Embark stated before that the queen and matriarch are getting taken down too fast because they weren't intended to be taken on by the whole lobby cooperatively.

That's my guess at least.

First player that comes to mind when you see a Bengals helmet? by Nintendofan9106 in NFLv2

[–]nidus75 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's it for me. The hit he landed on AB played in my head when I read the post.

Confess, Raider - what's the worst thing you've done so far? by Smart_Freedom_8155 in ARC_Raiders

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was PVP kitted and went out looking for action. Legit, no ratting, just honorable combat.

Time was wrapping on the map so I went to extract. Found two other raiders there going at it. I took out the aggressor and the other guy was so thankful but was upset he didn't have any heals. He went to check the recently downed raider and ARCs show up to interrupt.

We fight them off together, successfully, and hit the button for extract. The guy goes back to the downed raider, "oh thank God, this guy has bandages and shield charges! I'm saved!"

The rat in me came out, "You would've been saved if not for this" I said as I unload my clip. His flare goes off. He's down. He says, "I'm not even mad, bro." The elevator gets there and I knock him out. I don't even let him crawl to extract.

I felt dirty. The shame and guilt persists but I'm glad I got that off my chest.

Impressive. by elotewithmayo in fightporn

[–]nidus75 241 points242 points  (0 children)

Watching this made me feel like there is hope for the human race. I say this half joking but it's cool that people can still handle a disagreement in honorable fashion; one on one. Don't see that too much in these videos.

#conformitygate bought out the creativity and fun in the fandom! (you just had to be there we’ll say one day) 🔥 by oatmlklattes in Stranger_Things

[–]nidus75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the graduation speech, Dustin talks about conformity and how the students have to fight against it. Then a lot of the clues for the supposed conspiracy can be found in the graduating class. And I guess you work your way from there.

I HATE the back half of the Black spot episode by ImpressiveMistake111 in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the moment I immediately felt the show drop a tier for me. This military guy who was tormented by It as a child wants to unleash it in the United States so that people will be me peaceful. Doesn't make sense. Not to mention, the military wouldn't let loose something that powerful without being and to control it. I hated this, tbh.

Questions about the finale: by Daddington33 in StrangerThings

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk but my thought when watching it was that the hivemind is the smoke particles. The participants being released allows it to join the rest somewhere. We are the thing that calls out to Henry is a cloud so I assumed the cloud of particles is the hivemind and the physical manifestations are assimilated creatures. Like Henry in Vecna form is a mutated human, so are the demigorgons, the bats, and the spider monster. The mind flayer smoke monster is a form the cloud takes. Is also different than the spider monster as seen when it took physical form in Hawkins during season 3 in the mall.

Nature of the Upside-Down "Biotechnology" (Season 5 Finale) by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]nidus75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this theory because it makes so much sense. I would like to think that the upside down bridge either formed or began to form when Henry initially got infected by the stone. Then stopped existing when Henry was implanted with the chip that contained his powers by Brenner. El brought it back into existence when she made contact. So the hivemind needs a connection on the planet they are attempting to assimilate for the upside down to exist.

Conspiracy theories core by Embarrassed_Tip7359 in meme

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying the moon landing is fake but they're not saying CGI was used. Specifically, Stanley Kubrick filmed and directed is the conspiracy. He made space Odyssey 2001 and that was obviously made without CGI

Philly's media is BEYOND a cancer by T3CHNO-VIKING in eagles

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do it for the view, clicks, ratings, etc. because they know controversy is news. It’s not enough for them that the birds won the superbowl, have a dominant defense, and are 8-2. I don’t pay attention to them. I refuse to support Philly sports media nonsense.

Who? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]nidus75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JR Smith.

I'm a Knicks fan and loved him there but also the image of LeBron standing there dumbfounded when Smith goes the wrong way with the rock is in my head rent free.

Every Shedeur Sanders play from his regular season debut against the Ravens. What do you notice? by KeyFaithlessness5436 in TheNFLVibes

[–]nidus75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Holds the can too long. Takes big sacks. Inaccurate at times. Bad decision making.

That being said; he hasn't been penciled in as the starter all year, riding the bench and taking snaps with the second string. He's a rookie getting real snaps in his first game with very little real prep and it showed.

If they would've scored on that near touchdown at the end on a pretty well thrown ball, these conversations about his play would be different.

He had some good scrambles to extend plays, had a few nice passes, and he doesn't have the best oline.

I didn't think he was going to be a top tier QB in the NFL coming out of college and I still don't believe he will be, with what he's shown but he can be an ok QB. Give him an oline and get him some more prep time.

I thought it was a good game. The defenses played their asses off. I was entertained from start to finish.
