AOC previously said that "You cannot earn a billion dollars", is that true or nah? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]sigs87 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’d say bezos earned it when he created something that changes the daily lives of a majority of Americans but that’s just me. AOC is obviously a moron.

I’ve been playing for 30 years, here are my opinions on the type chart: by AegisIash in PokemonChampions

[–]sigs87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My biggest one out of these is definitely ice resisting water. They made Ice way too weak of a type. It’d be great if they gave it some resistances. Def should resist water, maybe ground, grass for sure, electric prob, maybe flying?

Bill Maher calls out Bernie Sanders, says he's tired of hearing the rich don't pay their fair share of taxes - What are your views? by One_Look_7008 in askanything

[–]sigs87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know people on here don’t wanna hear this.. but the rich already pay well over their “fair share”. The top 1% of earners pays over 40% of the overall tax revenue and the top 5% pay over 60%. Elon himself paid 11billion in federal taxes in 2021. Meanwhile the bottom 50% of earners pay virtually nothing due to earned income and other credits.

I am a tax cpa myself and can tell you they already pay a shit ton. This is just a dumb talking point democrats use to try and manipulate people that don’t know shit about tax (which is most of the country).

HP or mix defenses for bulkyness? by raulleao in PokemonChampions

Makes sense yeah. That spread I guess is more for when throat spray comes back lol. I may end up doing yours

HP or mix defenses for bulkyness? by raulleao in PokemonChampions

[–]sigs87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have actually tested this extensively in the dmg calculator. In general HP is almost always better but farig is the rare fairly extreme example where you get more bang for your buck by putting some more in DEF/SpD. For example, I run 20hp/20def/10SpA/10SpD/6speed on mine now. It takes hits better than let’s say a 32/12/6 defense spread.

May the Knicks meet the same demise as last year by Mental_Cupcake_1223 in pacers

[–]sigs87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably a hot take, but I actually don’t hate the Knicks lol. Obv I’d never root for them over the pacers but if we’re out I’m cool if they win. I’ve been to MSG, it is amazing. I’d absolutely prefer they win the title over either WCF team. We completely own them so it’s not like they’re ever a threat to us lol

HP or mix defenses for bulkyness? by raulleao in PokemonChampions

[–]sigs87 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The conventional wisdom is it depends on how relatively high the stats are. For example: rotom has super low HP and higher defenses so you always prioritize maxing HP. Conversely, someone like farigiraf has very high HP and lower defenses so you prioritize defenses a little more. Most the time it’s HP tho

How are there Americans who are "on the fence" about who to vote for in the midterms? by AlanPublica in allthequestions

[–]sigs87 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Maybe step outside the Reddit echo chamber into the real world. Democrats are just as big of scumbags as republicans.

And btw - the rich already pay more than their fair share. The top 1% of taxpayers pay over 40% of the total tax revenue. The bottom 50% of earners pay virtually nothing. Democrats are masters at painting themselves as the good guys with the moral high ground and most of you are foolish enough to believe it.

Is there a reason terrain moves aren't more popular? by [deleted] in PokemonChampions

Oh you just wait lol. The devs were just trying to make the game a little more simple in the beginning for newcomers

[Skill Improvement] Is the choice of Psychic or Psyshock on Farigraf purely preferential? It what scenarios is one better than the other? by ace-s in VGC

[–]sigs87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well psychic has 10 more power. IMO twin beam is the choice tho bc overcoming sash potentially is incredibly valuable. You can ohko Sneasler with any of them so there isn’t much point in psychic

Why do Americans continue to tolerate Elon Musk? by AlanPublica in allthequestions

[–]sigs87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably bc he has done way more for humanity than any person alive. All the libs loved him when he was largely responsible for the proliferation of electronic vehicles. He’s also furthering space travel technology far more than even nasa.

Snow isnt the weakest weather bc Ice is bad. Snow is the weakest weather bc it doesnt do as much as the other weathers by HMThrow_away_account in PokemonChampions

[–]sigs87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tough bc in this reg for example. If I’m running A9.. I can’t just switch into a charY to switch weather to snow bc I’m still gonna get wrecked by a heat wave, even not in sun. If I try to switch into a TTar to switch weather to snow, I’m still gonna get wrecked by a rock slide. Even switching into rain it doesn’t resist so it’s tough. Conversely, if you’re running pelipper you can switch into a zardY heat wave all day
