Just your typical internet guy with questionable humor

  • When women have a crush on men

    Jump

  • Only half true, not every western society was made entirely of arranged marriages; those were the norm in aristocratic circles, but for people closer to the bottom of the pyramid it wouldn't matter as much.

    Women always had less rights in general in the west, especially after Christianity took over, but it wasn't a case of "every woman has always been at a real peril of being killed if they're seen openly flirting with a man" - similar to how not every Christian country has made prostitution illegal, not even back in colonial times, or how even when it was, it wasn't equally enforced everywhere.

  • What is your oldest living presence on the World Wide Web?

    Jump

  • Probably my first account on newgrounds, must've made it back in 2003.

    I lost the password to the email I registered with and with that any chances for password recovery of said account and a bunch of other stuff of my teenage years.

  • In the circle of piracy

    Jump

  • Solution: search with Yandex. Russkies don't give a fuck about western complaints of copyright, so every pirate site can show up there. Ahoy! 🦜 🏴‍☠️⛵

  • Children who grew up teaching themselves because nobody had time to teach them often become adults who are extraordinarily competent and quietly resentful

    Jump

  • Even worse is when adults actively deny teaching you something basic like washing clothes or cooking food, always saying "Leave it to me". I am very resentful of that

  • The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself

    Jump

  • the Night in the Woods incident

    I'm so out of the loop (it's great for my own mental health) that I never heard of that one, and I quite enjoyed playing NitW

  • The girl in the OP isn't happy with being ignored tho

  • When women have a crush on men

    Jump

  • From that girl's perspective, it seems that she feels rejected, just not explicitly

  • We Just Lost Earth’s “Parasol” – And Warming Is About to Accelerate. | Just Have A Think

    Jump

  • suggesting drastic changes, such as not waiting for market forces to transition away from fossil fuels, but instead suggest governments globally super-charge the build-out of renewable energy sources.

    We can already expect USA to say "NOOOOOOOO, MAH PROFEEEETS!!! YOU'RE HURTING MAH PROFEEEEEEETS!!!"

  • Microsoft patents system for AI helpers to finish games for you

  • When women have a crush on men

    Jump

  • Why are women even taught/expected to behave like sneaky spies when it comes to romance?

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • Broken clock miracles or something, go figure :)

  • She's not wrong

    Jump

  • Ew, sexy demons

  • WTF, a banana is a berry!!?

    Jump

  • At times like these I'm kinda ok with portuguese lacking a "proper" word for berry. "Bago" or "baga" isn't really used, at least not in everyday life, everyone will always refer to them as fruits

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • For some reason, you made me think of 4chan and how it's always been a cesspool, no capitalism needed. Little did we know how most corporate social media would devolve into "4chan, but with ad-friendly moderation"

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • Took me a while to realize that for most people, it's less about religion and more about maintaining rituals and, more importantly, belonging to a community. To my knowledge, atheists don't have the latter outside the internet.

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • That a dictatorship led by a "good, strong leader" would be enough to fix any country. Held that belief from ages 16-22. With time, I understood that it would devolve into a bad strong leader anyway, especially because any one single person cannot realistically do everything at such a large scale, nor can they ensure that everyone down the chain of command is "good". Paranoia would seep in, more and more resources would be spent hunting "the bad ones", innocents would be wrongfully accused either by honest mistake or by malicious enemies.

    Nowadays, I really enjoy the idea of "Do not take for yourself any power that you would loathe your worst enemy to have" and I wish it could be applied to all levels of politics.

  • Gives it away every time

    Jump

  • The only autocorrect I liked because I have no clue how to manually insert an em-dash otherwise

  • Games you've given honest tries for and just don't find fun

    Jump

  • I feel the same about Eternal. In 2016, once I got the upgrade that gave me infinite ammo while at full health and armor, I had some of the best fun in the game, using the railgun like a maniac

    I didn't finish Eternal, I think I stopped before the cathedral where you'd kill the 2nd evil archbishop or whatever. Combat was annoying and the parkour more so

  • Games you've given honest tries for and just don't find fun

    Jump

  • The UI and every interaction is unnecessarily slow and that really builds up stress, not to mention the many times your aim is pretty fucking clearly centered on a vegetable or box or whatever, but the interact will target a nearby NPC because fuck you.

    Learning alien words is one of the worst chores of NMS

  • If probability and statistics were required learning in school there would be far fewer gambling addicts

    Jump

  • Nah, monkey brain would still think "THIS time I'll win for sure!"
