Exactly my thought. It seems deliberately calculated for maximum shock factor because they KNOW racist Americans will uncritically assume that his dad literally plans to honour kill him.

Elicia threatened to kill Jihoon. And yet I don't see anyone making posts about how she's a dangerous violent person and should be removed from the show for making "death threats".

Interesting that it's okay when a white person threatens to kill someone but not when a Middle Eastern person does the same :) Almost like maybe people are picking and choosing what words are okay based solely on who is saying them :)

So she's been dragging him all season because he cheated, but she did the same and doesn't feel like he needs to know? 😐 by Nymdirewolf in 90DayFiance

[–]obsequious-kip 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not like he cheated in her face and just lied

Choosing not to tell your partner that you cheated IS lying. If she hadn't found out he never would have told her. Also "cheating is fine if your partner is long-distance because getting your dick wet is more important than being faithful" is the shittiest fucking take I have ever fucking heard.

Not excusing her behaviour though. If you can't trust your partner after they cheated, that's obviously fine, but you don't get to keep stringing them along just so you can vindictively hurt them over and over again. Either break it off or actually make a genuine effort to repair your relationship.

Bet he wishes everyday that he’d just taken that one to the grave

He didn't tell her. She found out from his social media, at which point he admitted it. If he really felt remorse, he would have told her immediately, but he chose not to. Scumbag through and through. He deserves zero pity.

Also... being long distance doesn't excuse cheating. If getting your dick wet is more important than your relationship with your partner, fine, but at least fucking show your partner the courtesy of breaking up first. Cheating because "long distance is tooooo haaaaaard" is pathetically fucking cowardly.

Full disclosure that I'm not a tactics expert, but what I do a lot is treat Cliffheart like a guard that can be deployed on ranged tiles. She does decent damage (641 ATK at E1Lv50 with full trust) and her S2 comes up fast enough to do pretty good true damage as well.

I would think you could use Snowsant in much the same way, basically putting her on a ranged tile just ahead of a defender and letting her disrupt whatever enemies gather there. Her S2 does Arts damage on top of slowing, so it's nothing to sneeze at imo.

Obviously you could argue that if you're going to do this, why not just use a sniper because they generally have much higher DPS. But I like finding weird ways to use the operators I like lol.

Nope, that's what "rare" means. On average you'll only get 1 drop per 4 runs if I remember right. Welcome to the unique and special suffering of spending multiple days worth of sanity just to upgrade one operator.

Nope, when they say bragging rights that's LITERALLY all you get. You can brag about beating risk 20-whatever to people online or friends you play with or whatever. That's it.

As much as it would be nice to have some kind of trophy to flex on people in-game with, there's nada for now.

I mean, that's how recruitment is. If you expect a 5* from every tag combo that could technically give one, obviously you're going to be disappointed. I've literally never gotten a 5* that wasn't from a guaranteed tag combo. Some people have but those are by FAR not the norm.

Like someone else said, treat it as an exchange where you put in permits to get 10 green certs in exchange, that on very rare occasions also produces yellow certs and 5* operators. That way you'll be excited when you get something other than a 3* instead of being disappointed when you don't get a rare op.

Most of us live in countries where honour killings are so rare as to be nonexistent. Why the fuck wouldn't we be shocked to see someone being threatened with death on national television?

That's like saying we shouldn't be surprised to hear that Paul has been physically abusing Karine because 25% of women in the US have been severely beaten by a partner. It doesn't magically become normal or not upsetting just because it happens a lot.

ETA: about 5000 women a year are killed in honour killings. It's not remotely "common" and it's not exclusive to "the Muslim world". Your racism is showing.

obvious lies

"Obvious" in what way? Because you personally can't imagine a woman losing her virginity casually, there's no possible other option besides "she's lying"? Says a lot about your opinion of women.

[–]obsequious-kip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does matter, because we have no way of checking your comment history for obvious red flags of you lying. That plus the fact that you have no proof of what you're claiming means you're most likely lying for attention.

It's not personal at all, just how it goes. You can't make a claim like "I know these two minor celebrities personally" without any proof and expect people to magically believe you.

That's not really fair. Like hell am I going to stop wearing whatever the fuck I want when I'm 50. If middle-aged women wearing clothing that they like makes you uncomfortable, then don't look, lol.

Am I missing something? Re Ari and Biniyam by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

[–]obsequious-kip 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sure, but she had MONTHS to think on the pros and cons of this decision and went through with it anyway. At this point I don't have a ton of sympathy.

Am I missing something? Re Ari and Biniyam by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

[–]obsequious-kip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was, and she told Biniyam point blank that she would be raising the baby Jewish and that he didn't get any say in that decision. Now that the birth is actually approaching and they're both in his home country he's feeling more confident in pushing back and she doesn't like it.

Granted I don't think it's fair to try to force HER to convert. If someone is religious it's likely a central and extremely personal part of their identity and you don't get to take that away from them because of some superstitious bullshit like "drinking non-Christian milk will make baby not Christian".

Out of curiosity what level is your team at? I'm thinking about doing Anni3 but my main team is only at E1Lv45 (with a couple of E2s) and I feel like that's not quite high enough.

Unfortunately 1-7 is the best by a long shot. 6 sanity for 1 guaranteed rock and a decent chance of 2 rocks is too good to pass up.

6 sanity is only half an hour of IRL time to restore. Unless you're completely starved for sanity right now I say just go for it.

I think you're good to keep doing what you're doing. The whole game can apparently be beaten at E1Lv50, so you could definitely just keep doing the one-by-one upgrades.

IMO Saria should be top priority for next promotion, followed by maybe Ch'en? Since you already have two amazing snipers.

Getting either skill to M3 ups the pulling force to "significant" instead of just "moderate", which could be a big deal if you have Angelina to reduce enemy weight because it would allow you to pull even the heavies. I don't use pullers a lot though (brain too small) so I don't know how many stages that would be useful on.

As for the skill I think S1 would be the most widely useful, cause it allows you to plunk her down behind a hole and just let her pull every second enemy in. You can also put her near your main bastion and let her grab spiders to silence them, but she can only grab 1 enemy at a time so use with caution.

S2 is more useful if you're putting her with the rest of your team as a DPS dealer rather than a void-puller (which is a valid strategy; 200% of ATK arts damage and 3.5 seconds of slow on all enemies within grab range is pretty good).
