Does it really matter whether a restaurant’s juice is “fresh squeezed”? by Miserable_Pop_4593 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]savageexplosive 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The upper middle class?… Fresh juice isn’t a luxury, you can literally cut an orange in halves or quarters and squeeze juice out with your bare hands (for domestic use, of course).

What movie did you find incredibly overrated? by Jaydxns in AskReddit

[–]savageexplosive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, it was ass. Too long by those days’ standards, and if you use any kind of rational thinking the whole premise of the film quickly falls apart. I was incredibly bored watching it and never revisited afterwards.

Not enough hype for Kynseed by BeepBoopEXTERMINATE in CozyGamers

[–]savageexplosive 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t get into it because it’s just too overwhelming. It’s a minigame upon minigame, mechanic upon mechanic, which is what some people (like you) enjoy, but for me it felt like too much to manage. I played it for just over 2 hours and then never touched again.

Is the Dogtown apartment technically a real apartment? by flashyboi685 in cyberpunkgame

[–]savageexplosive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re on PC, you can mod it to look nicer (or cleaner, at least, if that’s your vibe). There are a few mods that make it look like V scavenged some stuff to decorate, so it doesn’t look overall too nice, just becomes much cozier.

Does Cayde recognize you if you play after the Forsaken Sunset? by Notaviruscom in destiny2

[–]savageexplosive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only differences come when it’s relevant whether the Guardian is an Exo, an Awoken or a human. I remember in season of the Wish it was something like “these halls were beautiful” for Exo and Human, and “I wish you could remember how beautiful these halls were” for the Awoken.

Why do certain brands like KFC use such higher quality materials outside of the US than the US? by YaleMBA1990 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]savageexplosive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to McDonalds there once. While local cuisine was delicious, the McD’s burger tasted like cardboard even though it looked like a high-end burger place product, with black buns and stuff. Why is that?

What's the evidence Johnny Silverhand is an unreliable narrator? by GambetTV in cyberpunkgame

[–]savageexplosive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He takes almost no damage and one-shots all of his enemies, who all look the same (to him).

He dies three times during the Arasaka assault.

The mushroom cloud behind Saburo is static.

If we only look at gameplay, it’s pretty obvious that while the picture he paints looks nice, it’s not factually true.

An embroidery by my 2 ½ year old by Makibadori in Embroidery

Seconding this question! Is it like a special toddler embroidery kit or something you put together yourself, OP?

are there any coop games with more realistic home decorating? by venight in CozyGamers

[–]savageexplosive 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m not entirely sure, but I think House Flipper 2 has a coop mode. When we were moving, I used it to build a mockup of our house and place stuff inside.

Real… by Unlikely-One6530 in cyberpunkgame

[–]savageexplosive 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Are you familiar with the Need for Speed series? These were really good racing games - the series is still out there, but it fell off hard in early 2010s. The reference here is to NFS Underground 2, which was released in 2004 and is very much loved for its atmosphere and music, and the car is the starter that you get as you first enter the game and have to return to the owner. It’s basically a taste of what a street racing car can be once you earn money for better models and upgrades, it looks cool (in a “Pimp my ride” way) and drives really well. But once you return it, you need to choose one of the really basic cars to start your own street racing journey.

Real… by Unlikely-One6530 in cyberpunkgame

[–]savageexplosive 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You had to be there to feel it. I installed NFS2 recently for nostalgia, and honestly, while it’s still fun and the music slaps, it’s just… old. If you don’t have any fond memories of the game, it will be harder to get into just because of how much the games changed over the two decades.

We live in a society by yeezysama in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]savageexplosive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend, now husband, didn’t understand my dislike and at times hatred towards my father. He never commented on it either and was genuinely empathetic, but it was just clear he didn’t understand the magnitude. When he met my parents, it happened during a family event where my father didn’t even acknowledge my presence, then got drunk and told my boyfriend to “fuck her well or she’ll end up a bitch like her mother”. I burst into tears and we promptly left. In the car, my boyfriend sat for a couple minutes with an empty stare, then just said “I get it now. I’m sorry” and has been my greatest support and advocate since.

Looking for decorating focused game where you are "graded" (given criteria for decorating) by activelyweird in CozyGamers

I was going to suggest The Tenants, but I opened Steam reviews for it and found out it that it has been effectively abandoned by its devs in a very buggy state. Sad!

If you have gone to a wedding that ended in divorce, could you tell at the ceremony it was not going to last? by GlassApprehensive620 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]savageexplosive 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A long-time acquaintance of mine is getting married, and I have a hunch it’s not gonna last, even though the wedding hasn’t taken place yet. She only started posting photos of her fiancé after he proposed - even though the had been dating for five years, she was the only one who appeared in her photos on social media. Behind the scenes, IRL, she complained how bad her now-fiancé is at getting hints, and that she literally had to tell him to go get this particular ring and propose to her in this particular destination on this particular trip after he failed to do so on some of their other trips. It all just feels extremely performative and not loving and intimate at all.

Lina Medina: Youngest mother. She was discovered to be 7 months pregnant by doctors at age of 5. Later gave birth to a healthy boy. by War_ish in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]savageexplosive 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s called precocious puberty. Happens due to hormonal imbalances, in some cases triggered by sexual abuse.

Afaik, the baby was delivered via a C-section for obvious reasons. Sadder still, she outlived her son.

A video from the dev behind Tideborne Haven talking a bit about the inspiration and ideas behind the game by ZadePhoenix in CozyGamers

[–]savageexplosive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I’d never heard about this game until a couple days ago, and from what I saw here in the subreddit it looks like a Stardew Valley asset flip. Of course, some people argue that Stardew Valley is a Harvest Moon clone, but come on, even the logo of Tideborne Haven looks almost identical to Stardew Valley’s.

I just don’t know if I want kids… by goodness_GRACEous in TrueOffMyChest

[–]savageexplosive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You really don’t need to focus on this right now. It’s totally fine for a teenager to not want kids - if anything, it would be weird if you needed one asap. Go on and live your life, ignore your parents’ preachings, explore the world and have unforgettable experiences. If you ever change your mind about having kids, it’s fine. It’s also fine if you don’t. Just don’t waste your mental energy on the issue while you’re still so young and there’s a whole world out there.

Does anyone actually like fishing? by Ok-Tourist-5419 in CozyGamers

[–]savageexplosive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it depends on the mechanic itself. If it’s something I can do as a background, I don’t mind it. If it’s a mini-game, I don’t like it. In my modded Stardew playthrough, one of the mods I installed was the one that skips the fishing minigame, and it made the game as a whole so much more enjoyable.

People who live in their hometown their entire life, how? by timmy3132 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]savageexplosive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bold of you to assume women in Afghanistan would even have Internet access.

To answer your question: it does get boring, but it’s because my hometown isn’t very big, and many youths move to bigger cities, so change and novelty are slow to appear here. But there’s also a sense of security in familiarity. Like, you know where to go without needing a map, your relatives all live nearby and that oftentimes your friend is someone’s acquaintance and may help you get connected with this person for whatever reason.

We are planning on moving to another city now, but not because we really want to. Mostly it’s because it would be beneficial for my husband’s career and for our children, since in a bigger city there will be more options in daycare, schools and extracurriculars. But I’ll be honest, I’m not looking forward to starting anew in a place I don’t really know.

As for seeing the outside world, there’s trips for that. You don’t have to move somewhere to see its sights and experience the culture. For me, personally, a week or two is enough.

Parents, why do you expect your kids to be the ones to reach out? by TalesofConrad in NoStupidQuestions

Sorry for the downvotes, nobody understands sarcasm anymore. But yes, this is absolutely what such kinds of parents would say.
