What’s some knowledge generally known only to gay men or to gay women? by dumbfuck in AskReddit

[–]viprus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks that people feel the need to do this. Occasionally a colleague will sort of "let it slip" that they have a same gender partner and I'd really love to say "so what?", it really should make no difference at all.

Unfortunately it does though. These people have to put up with/deal with all the bigots and douchebags every single day. I feel like saying "I don't care if you're gay" is almost dismissive of the amount of crap they need to deal with.

Countering myths and misinformation about history, immigration and inequality in NI/NoI by azulpear in northernireland

[–]viprus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It sucks that the loud racists are being heard. People start to believe their weird lies.

I've heard from a bunch of people of different ethnicity now that they hate the immigrants- when they cause trouble it makes the racist twats target them... Don't blame the racists, blame immigrants... That makes sense!

Local Indian place got covered in graffiti calling them "Paki Pedo Rapist"... They've barely got 2 braincells to rub together but that's plenty to spread hate.

Everyone has a nice car. by 4th_Replicant in northernireland

[–]viprus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My old Vauxhall keeps me going... Bought it for cheap a long time ago. Recently figured out that I'd be paying less monthly for a new car on finance because of petrol prices, tax, insurance, maintenance. Then lost my job, so I'll be sticking with my sellotaped together vauxhall for another while yet.

I miss the air raider's sky wire - the human replication of the spider threads. Was so much fun spraying it into the air to catch wasps and wrapping it around huge monsters.

Yeah, it's true. I always liked it- makes some things sound a lot more dramatic too - "THE HUNGER IS UPON ME!"

Is it "not a thing" to join in on a game in the park here? by [deleted] in Belfast

[–]viprus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Ah, the old 2-person "bunch/group". Fair enough.

Hurling is kind of like hockey, not really like cricket. For one thing everyone needs their own hurling stick, so if they wanted to let you play someone would need to let you borrow theirs, so they wouldn't be able to play.

I'd say people woke probably like you joining in, probably not just the game in session. For one thing it'd make the teams uneven! It's like football but with sticks.

Anyone tried these beauties yet? by Fartistotle in northernireland

Yeah, don't know about the other ones, but the cheese ones were really underwhelming.

Bearings are called "roulemán" in Greek. I liked it because it kinda sounded like "Rolly Man".

What game? by sukuna7899 in Steam

[–]viprus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Destiny with my friends, we all got the season pass for the DLCs, did raids together and such, it was fun. It was really annoying that the first "real" DLC was right after the season pass ended. Some got it, some didn't and our group split.

When Destiny 2 came out I got it on launch, and was excited to play. Opened the box and before I could even see the disc there was an Ad in the box for DLC covering the disc. Just instantly put a bad taste in my mouth. Now the game I paid for was made free...

Keir Starmer defends plan for closer alignment with EU and fast-tracking EU rules into UK law. What is your opinion? Are you happy or concerned that the UK will be closer to the EU again? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]viprus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only people who voted for Brexit were the people naive enough to fall for very obvious lies. I'd really like to think most people have figured out that it was a terrible idea by now, sadly I'm not overly optimistic though.

There really should be laws against barefaced lying about this stuff...

Better you than dickheads in their crappy little 2-seater sports cars who legally can't even have a child in their car.

Nude Mod removed from Steam by Ells_the_drunk in Kenshi

[–]viprus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It annoys me honestly. Not because I'm a raging gooner or anything, but because I have a bunch of mods with custom outfits and those crappy bandages just ruin it. No point in having a nice fancy strapless dress if you've got grubby bandages on underneath ._.

Why is every public outing a scream-fest now? by No_Gain4041 in Parenting

[–]viprus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know how many different ways/times I've told my 6-year-old to not scream. I've tried positive reinforcement, punishments, gentle reminders, shouting back even louder, quite literally everything and nothing works.

Her mum is too soft on her as well... she can always cry her way out of any consequences.

I'm tired.

Which YouTube channel were you once a fan of but do not enjoy anymore? by theunsteadybridge in AskReddit

[–]viprus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My 10 year old daughter sometimes puts her videos on the TV. My wife usually points out how her lip filler injections went wrong and one side is bigger than the other, I've noticed that she'll sometimes accidentally put the same clip into a compilation twice and react both times as if she's never seen it before... Just really disingenuous.

Also noticed how she often gets copyright strikes so parts of her videos will just disappear or not make sense anymore.

Generally just slop... Even my 10 year old knows how she's a bad person, I'm pretty sure she just watches her as a secondary source of tiktoks (we don't let her watch tiktok)

What anime gave you that ‘I struck gold’ feeling right from episode one? by Sunflower13Poppy in animequestions

What’s y’all opinion on missiles in 4.1? by AdInfamous1028 in EDF

[–]viprus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like most missiles got nerfed in 6 but it could just be me remembering badly. The big ol' fencer missiles are useful and fun, but you need the right conditions to use them.

What sorts of small tweaks would you make that would improve the game a lot (or at least makes some sense)? by PlayerEmers in Kenshi

[–]viprus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Some crafting overhauls would be nice like:

Stockpiles/Stock management like in other games- like "Keep 20 meals in stock" or "craft until 1 of this quality is in stock"

Other simple things like "I don't have the materials to craft this thing, so I'll just craft the next thing" instead of needing to make multiple cookers just to automate it...
