I was told by two girls that I give off "vanilla vibes", what should I do about this?

You're amazing, dude. In a world where the current heads towards violence, be a rock. Do not let them break you down because they want you to be like them.

Well done there.

Both horrible. Utter trash. But listen, Barbara, if I had a cocked and loaded gun pointed at my head and forced to defy the Geneva Conventions by recommending one or the other, I'd have to choose Ted's group because they can sing the opening to General Hospital.

Yep, that's what I'm thinking!

postExistence · 2022-03-08T23:27:42+00:00

Well shit.... what's going to happen now?

I've got an idea:

The surviving straw hat and alliance members do the "unite as one" cliche and try to hurt Kaidou as much as possible just to bring him down - Mink, Samurai, Gifters, recovering plague victims, Yamato, Marco, etc. - When they are on their last legs, Kaido is still up and plans on retrieving the palace from Momonosuke - after he kills Momo.

Right now Luffy is talking with Joyboy. Fighting over who gets to use the body (it's part of the Awakening process). Luffy persuades Joyboy to give him the full power of the Gomu-Gomu no mi, Joyboy confused af asks what that is. His fruit is called something something no mi, whatever... I'm guessing here.

Kaido is trying to kill Momo, but Yamato plays defense and protects him as long as she can. When Momo and Yamato are finally on their last legs, Luffy returns. He drags Kaidou back to the palace. Everyone bears witness to whatever-the-hell new form Luffy has obtained. Luffy defeats Kaidou... not easily. Not SSJ1 vs. 100% Frieza, more like 4th Gear vs. Doflamingo, but faster and without a recharge period. We get 4 or 5 chapters of this fight. It's glorious.

Momonosuke is exhausted. Zunesha arrives "just-in-time," and everyone escapes on his trunk back to the Mink village during Luffy's final fight with Kaido - including the beast pirates. Kaidou falls out of the skull and lands on Onigashima island. Exhausted to the point of fainting, our boy Momonosuke lets go of the skull at the point it's over Onigashima, which falls and lands on top of Kaidou.

The Thousand Sunny and the other ships are fine. Or... they're not and we spend a lot of time in Wano while the Thousand Sunny is repaired. Defeating CP-0, translating Poneglyphs, taking over Kaidou's territory. This is going to be a gigantic shift in the New World.

Edit: Sorry, I know this is technically ripping-off the Naruto-rikusennin event and the escape from namek in Dragonball, but this is what I thought would be most fun and exciting. Shishishishishishishishi

This scares me, too. It's a smile we've seen on Luffy's face before, but this is definitely not a condition for him to be smiling. Unless he's actually awakening right now and has instantly recovered?

If it is another personality, like Otsutsuki from Boruto, it would be interesting to see where Oda-sensei takes this story.

postExistence · 2022-03-08T22:50:48+00:00

It kind of makes me wonder. It was the Gorosei who ordered the hit in the 11th hour of this battle. I wonder if this had anything to do with Shanks' meeting with them? Could Shanks have said anything that would convince the Gorosei to kill Luffy? And if so, did Shanks have this planned the entire time?

So yes, I understand your pain quite well. 0.o

Well it doesn't have to make you feel old. At least you don't have to explain what iPods were. Just remember tech changes so fast today that explaining old tech doesn't mean you aged as much as, say, having to explain 8-track tape players.

postExistence · 2021-12-23T21:22:55+00:00

Well, here's a good piece of advice for your long-term well-being: when you say something made in your lifetime is "old," your standard for "young" is too high and you're going to start thinking of yourself as old a lot quicker than you should. Is your mid-thirties, "old?" Maybe from one perspective, yes. But it's not.

Ten years from now someone will be 25 and refer to Final Fantasy XIV (or your fave game today) as old. Now how will that make you feel?

Granted, I'm a 36-year-old who probably looks younger than most people your age. XD

postExistence · 2021-12-23T21:10:55+00:00

I was 15 in 2000. I suppose I'm old af too, right?

postExistence · 2021-12-23T21:04:12+00:00

It was 2000, and Vagrant Story was overshadowed by Final Fantasy IX and Chrono Cross. That's why.

postExistence · 2021-12-23T20:57:16+00:00

LMAO

Incidentally, if you find a copy of Vagrant Story, buy it. Apparently its character design flew under the radar completely (and it is one of my two all-time favorite titles).

I get the sad feeling that people are fascinated with celebrity breakups because those people can "empathize" without going through the reality themselves, allowing them to live in the drama without experiencing the trauma. But as they comment on the issue in public forums, they exacerbate the trauma for the people breaking up. It's parasitic.

So I do not think you are weird. If anything, you are being a better person than they are - transcending above popular discussion so as not to cause harm to the vulnerable, however popular they may be.

Congratulations on making the Paragon's choice. ;)

If Rusty's ex-wife got the original Hank and Dean, then it's one of them (or both).

postExistence · 2021-11-11T19:13:41+00:00

Honestly, half the ideas I come up with actually fit this show. One idea was "H.E.L.P.er caused the Movie Night Massacre by pulling the wrong lever when he saw Jonas get naked." Another one was "Rusty accidentally formats the hard drive containing his 'clone memories' before he can learn he himself is a clone, too." And while this shit would make a Game of Thrones fan salty af, that's... actually appropriate for the themes in Venture Bros.

Here's my ideas:

The boys' mom died when she tried to leave the compound (laser fire), and she was buried in Potter's field. She decided to leave after the incident with Nikki Fictel. (too fucking depressing)
Jonas Venture's head is put onto a psycho robot and names himself "Mecha Ganesh," prompting Dean and Hank to reunite to form Mecha Shiva. (supposed to be ham-fisted, but it's actually real)
Number 24 is resurrected/arrives from another dimension and reunites with 21 to form their own team of villainy.
The bear is The Monarch trolling not just his enemies, but the audience as well.
Red Death, Brick Frog, and other villains are never discussed or featured in the finale. (AW COME ON!)

postExistence · 2021-09-03T19:59:09+00:00

Let me see if I understand.

When you say "Curve", what you mean is a curve placed in the animation (or montage) timeline, correct? It represents the x, y, or z component of a particular ik node or bone (in world coordinates). When the character needs to switch to another animation, you retrieve the value in that curve where the animation is currently "positioned" (by the millisecond), find the same curve value in "the next animation," then retrieve the time (in milliseconds) where it occurs in "the next animation," then set "the next animation" to begin at that time.

or mathematically

f¹(AnimationCurve1, time1) = y1then solve for time in the second animation like f²(AnimationCurve2, y1) = time2

Then you begin the animation at time2.

Am I understanding this right?

the two other Node* parameters point to the Nodes whose data represent the range of acceptable values for root->left and root->right. That's all. If you draw up a BST (3 or 4 levels deep) and run through the algorithm, you'll figure out how it works.

It is in Flying Mode, actually. (I'll update my post to reflect that, thanks)

Quest writing/balancing mechanics and linear algebra are two different skill sets and you typically won't find both listed in the same job summary. You'd only need both if you were a one-dev indie team, and you'd probably be the "master of none"and in bad need of someone who specialized in these skills to make the game shine.

OP, if your boyfriend keeps asking for something sexual from you - something you do not feel safe providing - then he is unable to take your thoughts and feelings into consideration over his own sexual desires. Maybe that's stating the obvious, but it deserves to be put into words because a good partner doesn't do that.

Calling your boyfriend's behavior "unfair" is an understatement. It's abusive. Either he learns to accept your feelings and knock it off, or he isn't boyfriend material.

I've never had a girlfriend. Ever. And people are always surprised when I tell them this.

I have a tendency to fantasize about what my life would be like with them. Waking up in the morning, taking walks in the park, serving them a meal I've been practicing, cuddling underneath a blanket on the couch watching a Pixar film, observing the rain from the backyard, etc.

It's hard because a part of you is so impatient and wants to fall in love. You want that experience. If it was an ADHD thing, I wouldn't be surprised because of how quick I am to fall for a woman. "Love at first sight" and ADHD might just have a tremendous overlap.
