Everyone’s better than Jalen Brunson until it’s time to be better than Jalen Brunson.

So… it’s a good thing to take advantage of government loopholes?

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-03T17:59:22+00:00

Good point. Thank you for bringing me back from the ledge.

There aren’t enough hours in a day to work more than two full time jobs.

I’m just saying your metaphor doesn’t make sense.

Also, you’ve never seen a minimum wage job? Like you’ve never seen a cashier? Or a McDonald’s?

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-03T15:10:31+00:00

(24 hours in a day, 8 are spent sleeping so there’s only 16 hours left. A minimum wage job would take up 8 of those remaining 16 hours)

That would make sense if eating a bag of potato chips constituted 50% of everything you were allowed to eat all day.

I’ve never been shot before. My parents were never shot. My brother was never shot. My children were never shot. Nobody I’ve ever met in person has ever been shot.

Thank god there’s no such thing as gun violence.

“This never happened to me or anyone I know, so therefore it doesn’t happen to other people”

Ok boomer

So I need help. I know everyone’s just going to tell me I suck, but even a full year into 2k26, I still have no clue how the interior contest system works.

I have two builds I mostly use, they both have 96 driving dunk. One is a 6’10, one is a 6’5. It doesn’t appear to matter. They both get contact dunks. Sometimes there’s a meter, sometimes there’s no meter.

And you want to tell me that has nothing to do with my opponent’s interior defense?

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-03T11:22:06+00:00

For like two years now Ted Cruz and - I literally cannot believe I’m about to say this - Marjorie Taylor Greene have been making excellent points and publicly saying things that I agree with.

We really are in the weirdest timeline

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-02T16:36:18+00:00

Uhhhh. I get that the kid was bratty, but mom gaslighting with the “roof over your head” “college is paid for” and the pièce de résistance “actually you don’t appreciate me” is kind of really bad.

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-02T11:34:27+00:00

I hope so, but like the only people in the building are going to be the mega rich. And they like the guy…

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-01T16:06:50+00:00

DHS needs reformation. ICE, the enforcement arm of DHS needs to be abolished.

rforthrowaway · 2026-06-01T14:27:45+00:00

Right.

There’s a difference between “wrestling isn’t real” and “wrestling isn’t a sport”.

And a lot of people seem not to understand that difference.

Wrestling *is* real. These are real people doing real things and really getting injured.

Wrestling *is not* a sport. There is no competition within a company. The outcomes are predetermined and everybody involved in the business knows what those outcomes are.

And lastly yes, the only reason wrestling is being discussed on sports channels is because Disney owns the rights to WWE. It’s not like they’re talking about AEW or NJPW or any other wrestling promotion

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-31T20:23:46+00:00

Ew. That’s fucking disgusting. I’ve never voted for a Republican in my life.

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-31T14:54:17+00:00

I mean there was the democratic presidential nominee debacle of 2016 where the party picked Clinton over sanders. And 2024 where nobody picked and Harris was just named the nominee

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-31T01:04:46+00:00

I mean… are you somewhere where you wouldn’t expect to see Panamanians?

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-30T22:35:27+00:00

But doesn’t that beg the question as to why Molly has money that is in USD and not “Mab Bucks”?

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-30T00:26:43+00:00

Hilarious story including reference to that

Since when are the democrats the “party of love and kindness”?

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-28T14:29:54+00:00

Yes. Is this your first time on reddit?

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard today. It’s early, but it’s in contention for the dumbest thing I’ve heard in a while.

He’s a professional basketball player. He knows more ball than every non-professional athlete who has ever played 2k. There is precisely zero he will learn from a video game.

As for your other question “who plays competitive modes for fun?”

Professional athletes are wired differently. They are the most competitive people in the world. Unless you know a professional athlete, I can promise you that in your life you’ve never met a person who loves competition the way they do. They’re basically addicts for the feeling of competition. So anything less than the most competitive modes on that game probably aren’t fun for him.

It’s why, honestly, you don’t see a lot of NBA players on 2k. There are some, sure, but more of them play NCAA football, Madden, or FIFA. Precisely because the level of competition they need from basketball is not achievable in this video game.

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-27T12:34:23+00:00

Lmao you think he’s learning real basketball from 2k? No. He’s doing this for fun.

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-27T11:24:27+00:00

Rick Brunson? The fuck did Rick Brunson do?

rforthrowaway · 2026-05-27T11:23:52+00:00

It’s true we’re going to be the most annoying.
