whut, a right-wing celebrity is a creep?

..."Right-wing"? The guy who has the shallowest takes on why the government is in bed with corporations so everybody should be anarcho-communist?

Freedom of action isn't freedom of consequences, and social consequences are pretty well protected.

Did people really think Balteus was so hard it needed to be nerfed? Its the only boss I fought so far that I beat on my first try.

There was a patch effecting Balteus on the day you posted this.

Also twin Harris and twin Earshot wrecks the entire game.

What if there is no inflation and it's just the US dollar that sucks?

It's just an idiot tax, and idiots will happily eat shit to use their own stuff so that's what they'll serve you.

to antagonize (others) online by deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content
to harass, criticize, or antagonize (someone) especially by provocatively disparaging or mocking public statements, postings, or acts

I suggest you don't use dictionaries for colloquialisms. PO is on point.

trolling has always been about harassing a person

Literally never. It's bait, where the aggressor reacts to the bite. No bite, no troll. Trolling without the set up is flaming or an attack. We have terms for when you try to hurt people pre-emptively, trolling has its own term because it is distinct.

potdnewb posted...

you are wrong very wrong especially when a group trolls an single person

How does that change anything? You just don't engage. If they're harassing you, the issue is harassment, not trolling.

potdnewb posted...

trolling is the schoolyard bullying of the internet

Not at all, since:
1) No personal connection
2) No forced shared space
3) No hierarchy games

Trolling is harmless, everybody involved chooses to engage, it just predates on people's excessive pride to keep talking when they just don't need to. The dynamics are verrrry different from any form of bullying.

i enjoy the mild form of "is a poptart a calzone" or "could optimus prime defeat one trillion intelligent lions" trolling

Is that even trolling? It looks more like someone with developmental issues trying to make conversation. It could be, but that requires someone to actually get upset that someone made a topic they don't want to engage with.

Literally immortal and guaranteed happy and no memories to generate any regret, seems like a no-brainer. If you don't want this, either you've never had a good day, or you just like being unhappy and dying.

Nope, talking to people is easy, but how often are you talking to the person? Whenever there's another person to witness the communication, or a risk of it being spread somehow, the person's given social positioning poisons talking to *them*. Talking to people is easy, talking through their persona is hard.

People are generally super easy to talk to if they don't think it effects anything else, but if they're at work or with friends, there's going to be a bit of fuckery to negotiate that will be needlessly difficult if you aren't clued in to what that is.

People are easy to talk to, but then the question is "Do you want to talk to them?" because if your motives aren't genuine, you're faking shit, and if they see you're forcing things, they won't feel comfortable. If you're talking to people because you *should*, don't. If you have a reason to talk to them then words will come naturally since you actually have a base to reference, you know what you want to know, and they will tell you how to ask them.

Being forward is good, asking questions is good, people like to feel like you're interested in them, and if you're actually motivated to speak to them, you are inherently interested in them in some way. And if you find they're not answering questions or not engaging with you, it's fine to just walk away, they're not interested, and you shouldn't be interested in conversation people don't want to have.

Oh and finally, sometimes people just fucking suck, some people are being assholes for undisclosed reason unrelated to you. If you've been authentic and they're being unpleasant, that's them being weird, they're failing a social cue and its best to move on.

Love is stronger, because you need to love something to even care enough to hate something else. Hate doesn't solve inherent problems for people's well-being, love does, so there's a more direct satisfaction for the person in love.

If you drink it every day you WILL experience withdrawal because it is an addictive substance.

That's completely untrue. Your body may fail to function without stimulants, but some of us aren't meaningfully effected.

I think a lot of us would pay a small fraction of our wealth to ignore a court case against us.

I hate how every year it feels more unbelievable we went to the moon. The 60s feels so long ago it feels like a time before industry.

0c to 30c is going from freezing to ball sweating

in the same vein, 32f to 80f is also going from freezing to ball sweating, but you have a lot more granularity in how easily to accurately determine what the temperature is, since it's a longer distance than 30 (30 vs 48)

but really the only thing that matters is you use the one you're used to. the one you use will always -- no matter what -- be easier and friendlier than the one you don't. even if you learn the other, you will always have an easier time figuring things out with the one you grew up with.

neither is better or worse than the other, they both have their advantages and disadvantages.

You'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between 11c and 12c, so further granularity is worthless, and 0c freezing and 100c boiling is universally valid. Farenheit has zero value and is not used in any context with any significance. Technically Kelvin is objectively better, but c centres on factors we actually use in life, so is contextually more useful.

oh, i thought it meant stuff like cars/houses/stocks

They're not liquid because you can't spend the value of the asset freely, like a free-flowing liquid. That's why "liquidating your assets" is selling them off. You swap the hard asset for a liquid one to pay your debts.

Money, duh

Money is what liquid assets are.
