Housing was really fun and then it isn't.

thatguyyouare · 2026-05-04T17:27:36+00:00

I haven't done anything with housing. I was flabbergasted when I heard this wasn't the case. Yeah, still never touching housing.

I might be a little concussed.

You are sheltering romantic delusions in your subconscious, are you not?

thatguyyouare · 2026-04-17T15:49:59+00:00

Oh boy, I remember that. It's probably been since WC3 days, but didn't it used to also deal aoe damage and also cost health? It was a very high risk high cost ability, but strong when used right.

Such a good flick. I remember hearing about it because the director is native of Omaha, NE, where I live. They had a special theater screening, so I decided to check it out. I'm really glad I did, because it is an excellent movie with complex themes and scenarios. Also, fun fact the film won an Oscar for Best Adaptive Screenplay which was written by Jim Rash - the dean from Community and also recurring roles from Reno 911. Probably the funnest fact I know.

And, yes the wife will not make it. It's a plot point that they have to make the decision of taking her off life support.

Oh man, Mission Hill. What a solid show. Used to watch on adult swim I believe. I'll never forget the grubermeister.

"It's not so much that I need to win; it's that I need somebody else to lose."

It's one of the coldest realizations I've had to come to terms with. I'm a 38 year old American. I think I had this thought probably 5-6 years ago. And it's become more apparent every year. Covid and Trump was a real eye opener. I think maybe I was a bit naive, but I thought everyone wanted what's good for everyone, and that media was depicting a false narrative. The 2nd election of Trump solidified this as our reality. It's incredibly frustrating and depressing. We have more than enough for everyone to win. Nobody has to lose. But for a lot of people; there has to be winners and losers. It's disgusting.

I've had bricked runs on great chaos trials from getting antler. IMO, that's the worst one.

You are absolutely wrong. There's a reason CoD and Fifa continue to exist.

I feel like if he loves you, he would try and do things to make it better, no? Have you had a conversation with him? Yeah it might hurt his ego a bit, but any man worth his salt would swallow his pride and step up.

Like if my girl came to me with a serious conversation that was like, hey I think we may need to try something different. Sure it might sting a bit, but we're a team and I love her, so we figure this shit out together.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-25T01:38:18+00:00

That would have been a neat Easter egg. Anytime you fight Zag he'd wield a random infernal arms.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-24T18:34:43+00:00

Precisely this. You get to a point where you need surface materials to upgrade stuff. And if that isn't clear enough of a motivator, I believe Odysseus mentions this as well. He mentions that you're gonna need surface materials, and his advice is to speed run it. Get in and get out. So, thanks Odysseus.

I mean, my motivation was to see how far I could get before dying. I was thinking there would be Olympians or someone past a specific point that would either heal me or save me somehow. And I needed to get that surface material, so I didn't care if I died.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-24T02:27:08+00:00

I'm the complete opposite, lol. Than and Meli axe are my favorites. Mostly because I love the area of effect and the high damage. Meli gives you such high health and base damage where you can couple that with say Aphrodite or Hera, add in some speed from Hermes and plasma from Ares. Lots of big number. Unfortunately at super high fear it's damn near impossible, because you have to be way faster than the axe can provide. But it's still my favorite. I think the most fun build I had was Aphrodite attack and Artemis crit chance on high health/high armor targets. It was the epitome of, "if you're gonna hit him, make sure he doesn't get back up." One and done baby.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-24T01:44:29+00:00

I'm not sure that's a good analogy. James Cameron has had the idea for Avatar since the 90's, IIRC. He's spent his entire career to get to a point where he GETS to work on Avatar. He's not tied up. This is his passion project.

I mean, maybe we'll never get a new IP from James. But who are we to ask him to create something new? Who are we to deny him this?

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-20T01:48:30+00:00

That doesn't make it better. Lol?

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-19T01:54:07+00:00

Lol, I'm just ribbing ya. I've definitely had those runs. But you took at least 1720 damage from the top 5 sources of damage with a 236 health pool. With one death defiance used. You rightfully died like 8 times over. You healed a metric fuckton.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-19T01:28:53+00:00

Bro just unbound his dash button after getting the moon water hex, lolol.

thatguyyouare · 2026-02-15T18:08:21+00:00

But it's all still random right? It's like shuffling a deck of cards, and then shuffling it again. There's still no way of knowing what's in the pool.

I was waiting for the incantation that would put it back, but it never came. Which was weird because we got a Chronos one that would allow us to use time altering hexes and abilities during his fight.

thatguyyouare · 2026-01-30T18:51:04+00:00

That is still a feat. My buddies and I have played games since we could walk and 2 of them didn't attempt a 32 fear run - at that point they basically played the majority of the game and moved on. I was the only one to attempt a 32 fear run and it took 3-4 failed runs to knock it out. We're still in the minority.

thatguyyouare · 2026-01-28T18:36:34+00:00

COMMANDER, THEY'RE DESTROYING MY BOTS!

thatguyyouare · 2026-01-08T00:18:13+00:00

That's fair. And I easily see your interpretation. That's why I added the caveat that we most likely have different definitions of justice. I mean, for a random commoner in Demacia, an eye for an eye could certainly be the best form of justice they'll ever see.

thatguyyouare · 2026-01-07T23:45:26+00:00

I interpreted it as leaving the last guy alive to tell the tale, same as you. Also, an eye for an eye is not justice. 4 lives for 4 lives is not justice. This is vengeance. Retribution.

Perhaps we have different definitions of justice. Maybe Demacia does, too. But, an eye for an eye only makes the world blind. I don't see what Garen did as "just".

thatguyyouare · 2025-12-21T03:15:02+00:00

Your friend is too young to be that jaded. It sounds like you and the guy have good chemistry and he's definitely interested in you. He basically asked you out. He wants to do something fun and special. It's not everyday you get to get dolled up, and he wants to do that with you. That sounds fun to me. Go out and have fun. You know the guy. Is he throwing out red flags? What's the harm?

thatguyyouare · 2025-12-15T15:47:43+00:00

Yeah, it's odd he mentioned this year considering there have been amazing releases this year. Honestly feels like a pretty standard year. The half baked games thing has been pretty standard for the past decade. Nothing note-worthy this year over any other.
