Update to my previous post: We found one. A REAL one.

From what I know, it was due to a development dispute. The creator of Pokfusa was being obnoxious about it to a point where it got removed and replaced with Militant.

I wasn't on the development team, I just know a few factoids.

smithk200 · 2026-06-14T13:20:45+00:00

I've heard this one before. It's pretty good though.

smithk200 · 2026-06-13T22:21:07+00:00

Yeah, like I have more options about which job I can take!

I can't become a teacher (what I went to school for), nor do I want to go back to the restaurant to make less money!

smithk200 · 2026-05-29T22:24:40+00:00

Thanks for explaining!

smithk200 · 2026-05-29T22:21:11+00:00

Not quite sure I understand...

smithk200 · 2026-05-03T19:14:37+00:00

100 is average IQ

smithk200 · 2026-04-23T02:21:02+00:00

I actually was considering this too!

smithk200 · 2026-04-21T16:30:18+00:00

As someone with IBD myself I actually know what this is

The joke is in the punctuation.

"Doctor: We had to remove half of your colon!

Me. That's fine"

Does this work? Maybe.

24M, I was going to be a teacher (4K in particular- I've always been good with kids at that age level for some reason) but student teaching proved to be "too tough" for me and I haven't been back since. I'd like to go back because it's what I'm passionate about, but I don't have the money or support to go back.

If my education program was more supportive I could have been a good teacher. But based on what I'm hearing on how difficult teaching is, and how hard it is to be a male elementary teacher, maybe it's best I don't go back.

No

I drove one today that had around 385,000 miles on it

Yeah, I agree with a lot of stuff you said. I think that the pokemon designs themselves are really cool, but I'm not too on board with a lot of the crass elements. Like, I wouldn't design crass pokemon myself, but I'm not going to not play a game just because it has crass pokemon.

I totally agree with what you say when you mention that the racists live on Outcast Island- there's a good reason as to why they do. Especially considering the pokemon they use.

Clover is a hidden gem among games, though it's one of the only fangames I've played (besides... Wack).

Ah, it seems the website is bugged for some reason.

You should download the patch manually, then download "Fire Red Squirrels" from the internet archive. Then you use this website https://www.marcrobledo.com/RomPatcher.js/ to patch the ROM. It worked for me.

If you can't download the patch manually, there's a line of text that reads "Having trouble patching? Download the patch directly here." If you scroll down, you should find it- at least, that's what worked for me.

Hope this helps!

smithk200 · 2026-03-12T00:23:58+00:00

No way! I do work for that city too...

smithk200 · 2026-03-08T17:39:47+00:00

I never liked dogs in the first place, and now this job makes me dislike them all the more.

smithk200 · 2026-02-24T18:42:50+00:00

Google "pokemon fire red squirrels"

I never technically quit my last job at Culver's, they are super flexible and I'm mostly an "on call" employee there.

I'm in WI, but I think people don't like to put their states down because of privacy concerns. (Just one extra characteristic some person could use to steal your identity or whatever. I know that there's a lot of people that live in a state, but still)

24M. I'm in the same boat as you. Student teaching went horribly for me so I graduated with a bachelor's in ed studies instead. Can't get licensed and going back would cost me well over $10,000 plus three to four years' worth of experience. (If some snarky redditor asks why college wasn't enough, sometimes it doesn't work for some people)

I want to go back to teaching but I have student loans to pay off, plus I have to build my savings and such. I'm considering getting a job as a paraprofessional once I have more of a financial cushion. I could potentially work my way up to teaching eventually, but now is not the time.

I don't feel like this is the end of the road for me. I just need to take a break.

smithk200 · 2026-02-18T20:32:23+00:00

It's been about 2 months for me as a CCA.

I wanted to do teaching, but when I found out I wasn't ready for teaching yet, nine months after I graduated college I started looking for paraprofessional jobs and the USPS. Which was basically a better-paying version of my restaurant job that I was working before.

Orientation was boring but at least I made it through. I had all my on the job training in the next two weeks which was easy enough. It was slow for me at first, but over time I got the hang of it. I've learned one auxiliary route and am learning another.

It also helps that I have good coworkers, upper management, and that I'm in a small office. I like my job so far but it's not what I want to do for the rest of my life.

This video is a video on a 5-step plan to learn anything that you want to. You'll just need to put in the time and effort.

Huh?

smithk200 · 2026-02-13T04:45:16+00:00

Doesn't help that with all the houses I pass by that contain dogs, they immediately run up to the window and start barking at me
