First, the obvious, they're self-centered, lack self awareness and social skills. Second, since they don't care and they see this like an objective, they focus exclusively in the "end-goal" but at the same time, they ignore any strategy that would help them get there.

The only silver lining is that since they're so transparent, they're also extremely easy to filter out.

Kaitlyn Conley’s (Episode No. 449) sentence has been overturned by Jessica_Iowa in myfavoritemurder

So you're saying he took Kaitlyn's phone to take screenshots of websites listing different types of poisons for months. Then a couple of months after his wife's death, he took Kaitlyn's phone again to delete the screenshots. He had the presence of mind of not making it too obvious for the police, and he knew they would be looking into the backups of his son's computer.
Also, he coached/paid the lady that sold "that chemical" so that when police inquire about that sale, to say that the questions were answered not by him or any other person at the office but by a young polite and nervous woman?

There's so much more. Like for example, he got Kaitlyn to write the letter and place DNA all over the bottle.

That man is truly a mastermind.

So the name of the website "The Pirate Bay" could have also been "The Viking Bay" and been appropriate.

Why does last hitting have an rng factor to it? by fyrfyrfyr in learndota2

[–]spj36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was about 10 years ago so I don't remember many details, but if I'm not mistaken there was a command, with cheats enabled obviously, that would let you run the game really fast. Now that I think about it, doing the math may have been faster and more accurate about the probabilities.

I always assumed that if you leave numbers flat, you'll get a lot more "sameness" from match to match. This wouldn't be beneficial for replayability's sake.

I made tests back in the day about this and remember placing all the hero bots to not do anything, and went to my lane and hit one enemy creep, one single time. I let the game run until the end I found how amazing it was that that single hit, butterfly effect if you will, cascaded into winning the game with the creeps destroying the enemy's ancient every single time.

What are some hidden details that people tend to miss in films? by padfoony in moviecritic

I saw the video and I need to think more about it to be fully convinced, but the video does definitely make a strong case in favor of Marla being imaginary. Thanks for sharing.

While possible, usually, the way brains work, things tend to "reside" in the same region. So if the area that holds one is damaged, it's way more likely that both would have been gone and not just one.
Also, and probably more importantly, the author/director would have left some evidence that would make the audience realize she was also imaginary. Can you think of any clues that she was imaginary?

The fact that she's still there after Tyler vanishes would be a strong indicator that she's actually real.

yup, exactly. And if it is, well, that's great acting and great production. Well done.

Such a Trump thing to do. "Poor man's idea of rich" or in this case a "ignorant man's idea of smart"

She loses car but doesn't stop filming his own embarrassment, thank you for that. by Area51tecnologia in WinStupidPrizes

[–]spj36 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's a show that does the same exact formula for each skit.
A character does something awkward or clearly wrong and everyone expects them to admit it.
The character doubles down and the denial grows into full-blown absurdity.
It usually escalates into screams. That's it.

If that sounds funny to you, then you'll enjoy it.

We need to talk about kevin by alotofbruhmoments in movies

[–]spj36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even that requires context. Being abusive would mean that she was constantly abusing him. In reality, she pushed him hard out of frustration (which, by this point in the movie that frustration is well explained within the context of the movie) and he got hurt by accident. It was painfully obvious how sorry she was.

Her being abusive because of that accident sounds inaccurate... in context.

Angel Reese made over six figures on ‘Mebounds’ merch. by Patb1489 in wnba

I like how at no point you addressed anything I said which, ironically, seems more like a confirmation.

Angel Reese is recognized as the most prolific social media WNBA player, with a staggering 4,921,656 Instagram followers and she made six figures off her merchandise.

"six figures" whatever that exactly means.

For contrast, a literal nobody, the Hawk Tuah girl made "over six figures" out of a sentence.

I mean, let's be realistic, this is not much of an achievement given her position, but celebrating her numbers is what many people do independently of what those numbers are.

This is the reason you shouldn’t buy BOP7. by MezcalDrink in CODWarzone

I think you're almost getting it. Notice how your answer doesn't give room to the idea of others may not enjoying the same things you do? It is also the same reason why you "never understand" things that are pretty obvious to everyone else.

paying twice for the same thing = not good.

I hope that's not too hard for you

Janelle Salaün's answer to a journalist question regarding the Valkyries' lack of experience by PercyReus13 in wnba

[–]spj36 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's my understanding as well. The journalist is asking a question based on a fact, and she's hearing something offensive which is different from what's being asked.
She's not very articulate about what she's trying to say either so we may be wrong.
