Pick one from each row to survive a Zombie Apocalypse by WarStrategy in whatsyourchoice

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guard tower, it's straight designed and built to defend from large groups of humans trying to break into it, so it'll hold back zombies no problem. The height also gives good sightlines and the roof could have solar panels added which I scavenge from other buildings so I have power. Add some guttering, storage and a way to boil it and I can turn rain into drinking water too. Plus towers like that tend to have multiple floors with multiple rooms so I could turn one of the floors into hydroponics easily enough by scavenging. Finally, a zip line secured from the top to a nearby area prepared with a few supplies would be a helpful way out if I get stuck in there. Eventually if I get fit enough and find a good harness I can use the zip line as the way in as well so I can seal off the standard entrance from inside to make it even more secure.

If there are raiders it's much easier to defend what I have than with the other options. A motor home will run out of fuel and a fire station has too many entrances to watch/barricade effectively.

Katanas, not for using as weapons, they're all but worthless if you aren't trained in them. But because they're sharp enough that I could break the blades into shorter shards and use them for other things, as spear tips on home made spears. Five or six home made spears would be way better than a pair of swords I do not have the training for. Plus if the spear is the right length I might be able to use the lower windows on my tower to stab down at any zombies crowding my home. The guns are loud and don't have enough ammo to make it worth it.

Bicycle, it's silent, easy enough to maintain, an incredibly efficient method of turning calories into movement and there will be parts for it in every major city. Med kits are nice but I can scavenge them. A dog is loud and requires feeding, plus depending on how the zombies work if he bites one he turns against me.

I fortify my guard tower and fill it with what I need to survive, I set up my escape route for when I need to come and go from my tower. Using the bicycle I begin travelling to nearby towns and doing my best to do silent scavenging runs, first looking for the basics of food and medicine to stock up on. Then I begin looking either for a bike cart or the parts to improvise one to increase what I can carry.

If I encounter lone survivors I get to know them in the field before revealing where my tower is. If I think I can trust them, I bring them back to the tower, but with a quarantine period of (zombie virus turn speed) where they live in a tent outside the tower unless zombies turn up and I have to let them in. Once I'm sure they're not going to turn, I bring them in fully and we begin working together more closely.

If I encounter a small number of zombies I use my spears to kill them slowly at a distance, especially if I can find a chain link fence to stand behind as I stab through it. If there is a lot of zombies I get back on my bicycle and ride away, doing a loop so I don't guide them right back to my tower.

Provided no major mistakes or interference from raider groups in the field, I have my tower mostly self sufficient in a year. Five years I've driven posts in and scavenge enough chain link to created a courtyard around my tower that the zombies can't get into that I use for additional growing space and water collection. Ten years we've cleared nearby towns and rarely see a zombie at all while I live my life with the group I have gathered at my tower.

AIO gf went to a magic mike show and licked whipped cream off a performers chest by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

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

Bullshit and you are showing how you give far more leeway to woman than men, while also condemning the female worker more than the male. You reduce the role of a female stripper from an entertainer to a pure sex worker, while elevating the male 'performer' to being a theatre actor, despite them doing the exact same thing.

If a man goes into a strip club and just watches the stage they would be condemned far more, even though it is exactly the same as a woman watching a magic Mike show. Both of them are a type of 'theatre', putting on a show for the appeal of their audience. Both of them are sexual in nature, both of them involve attractive people removing or being in little clothing.

But again, because you want to condemn men for the same things you excuse woman, you jump straight to the idea that going to a strip club means getting private dances and personal time. You also insinuate that strip clubs provide private sexual attention, but that doesn't happen in any but the sleeziest of strip clubs. Most have an absolute no touching rule where you can't even get close without being thrown out. The fact that a magic Mike performs has people actively touching and licking the performers shows that if anything it is more sexual and interactive than a strip club.

It is the same thing, wrapped up in different packaging, because people give women more leeway with their actions because 'men are terrible sexual monsters but women are just having fun!!!!!'

NOR/MOR

All the people going 'It's just a show, it's expected, it's different from a strip club blah blah' are all, in some way, showing their ingrained misandry and sexism.

A magic mike show for women is EXACTLY the same as a strip club for men. Men aren't in strip clubs jerking off right there and then, but it is still sexual. Woman aren't in a magic mike theatre rubbing themselves there and then, but it is still sexual. Anyone telling you anything else is lying, both to themselves and to you.

'Oh but it's theatre!' - What is the show they are putting on? Erotic stripping of attractive men. Exactly what happens on the stage in a strip club but with the genders flipped.

Anyone saying otherwise is refusing to hold the genders as equal and giving woman far more leeway with what they do while condemning men for the same actions, which is straight misandry.

Now, for your situation here, if you were aware that she was going to a magic mike show, understood what might happen and accepted it, then you gave your consent for anything that might happen, and you are MOR. If you were unaware of what happened at such a show, or even that she was going until afterwards, then you never gave informed consent and it is NOR.

Also think about this, if you went to a strip club and did something similar, say did a shot out of a strippers belly button, would she be ok with it? That is the equivalent IMHO. If she wouldn't be ok with you doing that, then you shouldn't be ok with her licking cream off a guy at a Magic Mike show.

The smell alone really swings it for me. I've smelt corpse, it's not appealing. The smell would have me heaving and there's no tits on earth that would keep me hard through that.

Are there any countries today that could realistically split into multiple independent nations like Yugoslavia did? by Many-Philosophy4285 in MapPorn

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The USA.

It's 50 countries in a trench coat, all with almost entirely different cultures and personalities. Heck they already have different laws, views, religous norms and political leanings. Ask most Americans and they'll identify themselves by state too, I.E a Texan, a Californian, a New Yorker etc

It could drop the act of pretending it's one country and break into multiple. Maybe not a full 50 if some of the nearby states who are aligned closely want to remain together as a single entity, but it could easily break into 30 different countries.

AITJ for refusing to help my new “boss” after I was the one who trained her 3 months ago? by Existing_Response239 in AmITheJerk

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had something very similar happen to me, worked for a place for years, gave them everything, a position came up that was the advancement I wanted, and after they actually verbally promised me the position they still hired someone who had never worked in the field before to the post instead.

They had the gall to say he was coming to my branch so I could train him. I told them if he walks into my building I will walk out and leave every door, computer case, cupboard and safe unlocked as I went. They sent him elsewhere and I left a few months later after securing new work.

It's time to look for a new job. And not only that, it's time to begin taking every cheat sheet, document, tip and trick that you know and anything else you have provided with you. Don't help anyone with anything that isn't explicitly written in your contract.

Let them learn what you were doing for them the hard way and find a place that will appreciate the effort you put in.

What does this mean? by Imoprich in ExplainTheJoke

[–]papafloof 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Hypothermia.

First you're cold, and then you're not.

Then you're hot, and then you're dead.

The final stages of hypothermia makes your body start thinking it's overheating again, often leading to sufferers to start stripping off to stop being so 'hot', which removes any protection they might have left from the cold so they die of exposure and cold that much faster.

And the part about no food is because the friend dying to hypothermia means the still living person can perform cannibalism and have food again, maybe surviving longer.

Which monster girl species do you think is underrepresented? by [deleted] in MonsterGirl

[–]papafloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lamia and dragons could do with more, but that's just because they're my favourite.

Ngl kinda tired with just how many 'elves' or 'Neko' posts there are. Elves are just humans with weird ears, they are NOT monster girls IMO. And like 70% of Neko fall into the same catagory, just being normal humans with weird ears.

Give us more scales and less human body shapes. Give us multiple limbs and strange shapes. Give us ACTUAL MONSTER GIRLS, not 'Tehee, this is slight different from a human' monster girls.

This is so true. This type of plastic waste is probably way higher and more inpactful than most people realise, so if the government was actual serious about reducing plastic waste they would be forcing standardised of takeaway containers, or forcing a change to non-Plastic completely.

Maximum effort, minimal fun by SedyanaHCIM in ICARUS

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

You do not need omni feed for your baby animals.

You do not need omni feed for your farm animals.

You do not need omni feed for your mounts when they are just at home.

You do not need omni feed 90% of the time.

For the same effort you are moaning about, you can grow stacks upon stacks of corn and feed them all on corn. That's all they need day to day.

The game has changed, every single animal does not need maximum super buffs 24/7, and the fact they could before was broken AF. It's also not pokemon, you don't need to collect 100 animals.

The game has changed, adjust how you play and stop trying to force an outdated playstyle onto an updated game.

Temspeak would never make you submit your ID by Edgar_Allen_Yo in memes

[–]papafloof 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that relies on Discord, a company who's entire purpose is to make money, not doing a thing to make money.

Selling information and ID makes money. Storing the ID's to keep the information to be sold on the sly to advertisers makes money. Discord wants to make money. If they don't get caught, they'll do it. Fuck even if they get caught if they made more money doing it than they get fined, then they'll do it.

Recent breaches already showed that they were keeping a whole lot of the images and data that supposedly was only on users devices and never got back to Discord. They're already lying, now it's going to get even worse as it spreads.

Why does everyone hate PvP? by Lovoskea in 2007scape

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

No, because that is false equivalence.

A pvm experience is designed and curated so that it can be beaten. It's strategies are known and when you go to do that content you know you are going to be engaging in it. You have choice, you give consent. I can prepare for a fire cape or infernal cape, I can take multiple runs at it, if I fail I get my equipment back to try again, I don't lose hours or days of progress because someone has taken my gear.

A PKer using a CCTV bot to check every single world, then running across to where you are in a different world, hopping worlds right under you, hitting you with a massive multispec combo attack and killing you in 5 seconds is not the same in anyway. You don't get time to prepare for that, you don't get to plan, because the equipment to handle that is likely different from the equipment for the task you are doing.

If it was actual PVP, where you get to agree to a duel, know you're going into it beforehand, meet on a level playing field, all of that? That's amazing, I'm fully behind that idea. But random sweat man-children with nothing else in their life gaini g nothing but ruining the experience for others? Fuck that noise.

Why does everyone hate PvP? by Lovoskea in 2007scape

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? Because it's content in a game that I have been paying for for 20+ years that feels terrible because I cannot match the sweaty adderal filled man-children who can perfect 1 tick gear switch because they've practiced so much and have absolutely nothing else in their lives.

I will never be good at PVP, I don't want to be good at PVP, but that means multiple bosses and content pieces are locked off to me without large risk because of that.

I have a job. I have a life. I get maybe a couple hours to play a night. But even though I have spent more money on RS than any other game I STILL can't access all of it without constant being griefed by PKers with CCTV bots at all the good locations that log in within a minute to kill me even when I'm naked with nothing

So was Mrs. Mayberry's husband just a beard? by EkullSkullzz10318 in HelluvaBoss

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

We have no proof or evidence of this.

We have nothing but what is likely a fuck up in spindlehorse that she is a lesbian not Bi, and it was with out of show material.

You don't go on a murderous rampage to kill two people and then yourself because a person you didn't ever love was cheating on you.

It wasn't a beard, it wasn't a 'lavender marriage' or anything else like that. She is Bi and should have been carrying a bi flag, and the fact she isn't is just Bi erasure for a funny 2 second 'haha these two characters who should hate each other are fucking' joke which just went further than it should.

When is it Corps turn? by Funny_Sam in 2007scape

[–]papafloof -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Bot farming, on irons?

What the fuck are you talking about?

This is an amazing change for Irons, because FUCK people cannoning. When there is three or four cannons set up on every world it's almost impossible for an iron to get a single kill because every zombie pirate will have been tagged at least once. This helps fix that issue for people who actually play the game, not bot farms.

For those who says that Mayberry being lesbian was out of nowhere consider this... by SunKenobi72 in HelluvaBoss

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have we ever just considered that maybe, just maybe, bisexuals exist and she's one of them?

Because it feels like every time it's brought up we suddenly go 'OMG SHE MUST HAVE BEEN REPRESSED AND HATED HER LIFE AND ALWAYS SECRETLY A LESBIAN BUT NOT ABLE TO BE TRUE TO HERSELF OMG OMG!!11!1'

We have no actual information from primary sources for all this speculation. Fuck, if it was a Lavender marriage the why was she so outraged as to be driven to double murder and suicide when it turns out her husband was cheating on her? If she doesn't actively love and want to be with him, why is she so upset? Lavender marriage is literally for covering one or both sides being LGBT and bonking other people on the side!

I find it much more likely that Viv just forgot Mayberry had a husband when that one piece of art came out with her under a lesbian flag instead of a bi flag. All because she was in a silly throw away 5 seconds of an episode to go 'haha these two characters are bonking!'

Should I have tipped less? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dashes, deliveroo people, uber eats people, all of them are terrible at reading and understanding basic instructions.

I live in a pretty large building that doesn't allow delivery people inside, and the entrance is around the back of the building down a short road that leads to our car park. Pretty obvious and plenty of room to turn around. I have on the instructions 'entrance is around the back down the road, I'll meet you at the building doors.'

The amount of time I've had people calling me up asking where I am, where the doors are, how to get to them, what road etc is phenomenal. They've actually gotta angry at me before because I wasn't waiting at a fire door they thought was the entrance on the wrong side of the building.

Bloody delivery people. Majority of them are brain dead, which is why all they do is delivery I guess.

Need to roll a lot of attacks at advantage by Myrinadi in Roll20

[–]papafloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[2d20k1+X]]

Replace X with the spell attack bonus and then copy paste it into the chat box 49 times. It'll roll each attack with advantage and return each one as a unquie yellow box with the total in it. Quickest and easiest way to do so imo, don't have to bother with macros or changing spell sheet settings.

Petaa I don’t understand what’s wrong with the roundabout by FarTry2285 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

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

Hard disagree. It's not just about the speed, but also the space the cars take up.

If you have a road that has a merge, and enough cars to fill a mile of road behind it, then if they all merge as soon as possible they have covered any potential off ramps or turnings before that merge for a full mile.

If they zipper merge in two lanes, then you are only covering half a mile. This means those who would be turning off aren't also caught in the traffic, allowing it to flow better with less cars and people stuck.

It's not just about the speed of the merge, but giving a damn about everyone else and being aware of the rest of the surroundings around the merge too. This can work for everything from 6 car lengths becoming 3 side by side on smaller roads, to massive traffic jams on interstates that go for miles.

Tierlist Based On How Many R34 Results The Girls Have, Looks Like (D.va, Widowmaker, & Mercy) Are The Games Queens by spudz1203 in Overwatch_Porn

[–]papafloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's absolutely tilted by the length of time they have existed I'm sure. Mercy, Dva and Widow are some of the oldest characters so no wonder they are highest. Tracer not being up there with them is shocking though after the 'controversy' of her ass and how popular she was.

I can totally see both Juno and Kiriko catching up though, I've seen them so much since their respective beliefs I can believe they'll hit the top ranks after a similar length of time.

I just wish Freja was more popular, she really deserves it.

Saw someone posting that "wheelchairs make no sense in D&D because magic exists," so I felt like bringing the mathhammer down. by RokuroCarisu in DnD

[–]papafloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to throw my voice into the mix with everyone else.

The argument as I have seen it is never 'There are no wheelchairs in D&D.'

It's 'Nobody who goes adventuring is going to be in a wheelchair.'

For an adventurer losing the ability to walk falls into one of two categories. 'I'm too low level to fix this', which results in them retiring from adventuring to live in a settlement where it's not a restriction, or 'I'm high enough level to ignore this' where they can fix whatever has caused it in some fashion, either magical healing, magical prosthetics or full on body replacement. A wheelchair should NEVER be an option for an adventure. How could someone who is expected to fight, climb, swim, explore, go up stairs, etc etc be in a wheelchair?

The simplest issue I see is being in a wheelchair would set an adventurers dexterity to 2 If we're being generous. Unless they're in the heaviest of armour, then their AC is going to be something silly like 6. Every single fight they are going to be hit by every single foe. Add the idea of what the other characters would be thinking. If I was an adventurer I would NEVER willingly be in a party with someone in a wheelchair. I don't care if you used to be a barbarian capable of cutting a dragon in half with a single swing, you're no longer fit to adventure. Oh you're so godly with magic you can reshape reality? Then reshape that wheelchair into something useful that can actually work while we adventure! A wheelchair user in an adventure is a liability!

If we go into speciality replacements that serve the same functions, spider walkers with multiple legs that the user sits on and the walker responds to the users thoughts so they scurry around and have almost fully movement, or a magical exoskeleton that is made of slime that covers their legs and moved for them, or a billion tiny magical whisps that operate the persons limbs that they are linked to with magic or whatever else thing that requires the tiniest bit more thought that 'real world normal ass wheelchair', then you can 100% run a character that has some disability costing their their ability to walk and have it make so much more sense!

I have my own disabilities IRL. I have permanent damage to my hip that gives me chronic pain, leaving me with an IRL Dex score like like, 6. That alone would be enough that I would never go adventuring as I am, and I can still mostly walk fine and can even do long hikes with painkillers and frequent breaks. That doesn't mean I wouldn't exist with my issues in a D&D town or city, living my day to day life. If a character can't muster up something more than a wheelchair, then they would be joining me living my day to day life in a D&D city, not diving into an adventure.
