Thanks. Next time someone asks about something, like say about a car part, and someone condescendingly replies that it’s for a car because they exist I will remember your courage and heroic defense of the above douchenozzle and proceed to do in the future what I did earlier.

Not everyone has knowledge of everything, and on a social platform it is common to share experiences and to converse about what you may have learned since them, or what you already knew that others might not. I skipped down to the credits to educate myself about sticky keys precisely because I didn’t know what they were for and had shared the aforementioned frustrating experience.

This attitude is one step away from coming to a social gathering of any sort and telling people to Google whatever they ask about instead of just having a conversation. Sometimes I worry that my social skills have slipped or evaporated until I come across a scene like this one.

But why is it still going?

I sincerely appreciate it.

Wow, imagine being this condescending and still not explaining anything!

S3 was the worst one in my opinion, but everybody is different. I just feel like the massacred Hopper’s character to pay homage to the “loose cannon cop” of the 80’s.

Yes, hello. I understand you’re giving out Presidental Campaign starter packages?

I’ll take the Newport parents, Ivy League College, multi-millionare basic bundle. That comes with the limited-time “My Parents donated to most of my future colleagues’ war chests” add-on, right?

Do I have to upgrade to get rid of the early-to-mid-life scandal?

McDonald’s in Europe charges similar prices to America but pays living wages to their employees.

I get the reference, but as an actual suggestion it’s a little thoughtless.

It’s his own fault for shooting at his employer’s home anyway.

Oh, okay. You just want to be mad without fixing the situation.

Well, you can kindly go fuck yourself.

“Standards for thee and none for me” is all I’m taking from this.

Have a great day.

When the Democratic party’s strategists have decided that “you definitely don’t want the other guy voted in” in place of literally any other strategy is their best option, please explain to me why anyone further left of your centrism should believe that the administration will take another vote cast for them as anything but approval of the job they’ve done so far and an endorsement of more of the same.

On the flip side, to hold Biden himself accountable for the overreaction from University boards’ decisions on behalf of their corporate masters (donors, if that wasn’t clear), or responsible for the large number of Representatives and Senators making and voting for policy with their heads up their own or others’ asses, when he has been caught on the hot mic disparaging Netanyahu for how Israel is conducting itself is holding the wrong person accountable.

I get where they’re coming from. I get it on a level you clearly don’t because you have proven time and again that you have little capacity to sympathize with those who are clearly tired of voting for the “least damaging option”. Take a break and let someone else debate with them, because the more you criticize the further you’ll solidify their position.

Okay, dad?

I don’t really see you as being in a position to take a high ground on the basis of usernames.

While I’m so disaffected that I’ve had to have my fire rekindled to vote for the “least damaging option” yet again, and while I’ll be dragging my feet to the booth in November, I feel from key words in this conversation that their mastery of English is surprising to the point of suspect when I consider the errors they’re committing.

I’d advise saving your energy for a less disingenuous conversation.

Have a great day.

We know this isn’t an age-restricted reaction, so cool it with the “shaming young people” rhetoric.

Gotta love that Animorphs font.

My guy is talking about a controlled environment with scientific processes and y’all here talkin’ like he wants to chuck it on a few logs.

Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone

Game: Scion

A Scion of Odin, my concept is that when Odin gouged out his eye at Well of Urd at the base of Yggdrasil and tossed said eye in, he inadvertently created something new.

The droplets of blood and the eye were infused by the waters and bled into the roots of Yggdrasil. The most resilient among them trickled into the other realms. My character ultimately arrived in Midgard, in Venice Beach. Little more than a sentient blob of blood with a lone eye contained inside, he fed on smaller creatures and grew in the darkness.

Discovered by a bunch of surfers, he was taken in as a pet. He grew big and strong enough to take a form, amalgamating the looks of the other surfers into a new form entirely. At the start of his adventure he is called Grom, short for Grommet. He lives as a surfer bum, begging food and a few bucks off of people and living in an abandoned building by the beach. So long as he has the waves and his friends, he has everything he needs.

That is, until the arrival of a one-eyed young man who tries to kill him and cut his eye out. Grom wins the scuffle, coming out barely injured. It is only then that Odin comes to visit him, pleased at his victory. He forewarns Grom that because he has Odin’s other eye, others like him will be coming to try to claim that eye.

Grom is very physically adept, with points mostly put into Str, Dex, and Con. He’ll also have Appearance and Wisdom as backup stats. In the party he is the reluctant hero, wanting nothing more than to hang with his friends, but understanding that he must undergo this trial before he can live in peace again.

I’m SHOCKED. Shocked I tell you!
