Dragonblade01 02/20/18 10:57:05 PM #21 | Dinesh D'serves to get that ass beat. |
Topic | How do you view respect? |
Dragonblade01 02/20/18 10:54:32 PM #7 | I view it as a special form of trust. And trust is earned. Therefore respect is also earned. |
Topic | So one argument the founding fathers gave for federalism was that |
Dragonblade01 02/20/18 10:49:48 PM #2 | Because, as it turns out, sometimes projections and results don't always match up. Sometimes when you try to get rid of monopolies for the sake of small business, you end up with an oligopoly that ends up creating the same issue. |

Dragonblade01 02/20/18 10:32:38 PM #39 | Trump holds whatever position he thinks will be most beneficial to hold at the moment. |

Dragonblade01 posted...Pepys Monster posted...So the part about "gun control" really being centralizing gun ownership just went over your head? I trust and support them enough. Like, this isn't some weird, unusual concept. Places with gun control tend to still have military and police departments with access to guns. |
Topic | Weird. The Switch actually knows what color of Joy Con is attached |
Dragonblade01 02/20/18 8:19:31 PM #7 | I mean, it's a pretty easy thing to do overall. The console basically just needs to be able to read model numbers. |

Dragonblade01 02/20/18 7:48:09 PM #7 | Can we stop finding crazy people and then acting like their view is representative of an entire group? |
Topic | Dad just texted me: are you interested in a $1000,000 investment? |
Dragonblade01 02/20/18 6:37:28 PM #3 | Sounds like he wants to know if you're interested in a thousand thousand dollar investment. |

Topic | Do most Japanese people view Americans as terrorists? |
Dragonblade01 02/20/18 6:17:53 PM #14 | No? Maybe the generation that was alive during WW2 has some negative feelings leftover, but there are other issues that Japanese citizens are more likely to have strong opinions on (like nuclear energy). |

Dragonblade01 02/20/18 1:14:46 AM #87 | Dash_Harber posted... Dragonblade01 posted...People keep the religion but throw out certain beliefs because sometimes the actual society of believers and the tradition of believing it is more important than the specifics of those beliefs. It's the natural result of conflict between the various areas of one's social environment. Often, people would rather reconcile them than give one of the areas up. And since people in an environment often experience similar things, they can usually find groups that share some of these struggles and attempts at compromise. The gradual evolution of the various areas of one's society (including religion) is what follows. It may not be fast or happen at an even pace; but as long as a religion doesn't control all aspects of one's social environment, there's potential for change, even if seems contradictory. |

Topic | Black Panther is about to out gross Justice League's entire theatrical run |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 10:58:00 PM #129 | There were a lot of problems with the characters in Justice League. Superman - basically had bipolar throughout the portion of the film he was in Batman - better than BvS, but only because they tried to channel a worse version of MCU's Iron Man Wonder Woman - she was good overall Flash - relegated to comic relief for most of the film, but I'll give them props for a believable initial character arc Aquaman - basically has no presence the entire film, and little to know characterization outside of one-liners and exposition Cyborg - had a lot of potential, but the movie starts with his character arc in-progress and rushes through the development as a result |
Topic | Trump approval rating average surges to 43%. Close to par of Obama's 2nd term. |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 10:25:13 PM #12 | Everything I see about this president is just proof that it really makes no difference to bipartisanship. Good things are because your boy did something right. Bad things are because you inherited shit from the last guy. |

Dragonblade01 02/19/18 9:59:04 PM #49 | It's not for everyone. Play a game you enjoy. Don't try to force yourself into an experience that isn't doing it for you. |
Topic | Trump is literally the worst president ever |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 9:57:33 PM #19 | Well, I suppose it would be more difficult to be the worst president figuratively. |
Topic | why havent you fucking played doki doki literature club yet |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 9:41:59 PM #194 | I played it. It's alright. Great even, considering it's free. But it's one of those games where people hype it up too much for the shock value. Kudos to the developer for creating a good contrast between the tropey VN dialog and the legitimately creepy scenes later on though. |
Topic | Hey CE, why aren't you playing Celeste? |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 9:35:54 PM #37 | I did. It's amazing. Surprisingly thoughtful as well. And B-sides are legitimately challenging. |
Topic | C/D: Criminals don't obey laws, therefore everything should be legal |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 9:34:19 PM #25 | Laws shouldn't be made on the basis of whether or not there exist those who won't follow them. |
Topic | black science man is going full ham |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 8:27:19 PM #83 | Meh, I'm personally not all that interested in what someone thinks their faith should or should not be. Faith doesn't do any good for anyone other than the individual in question, after all. All I want is a good reason why I or anyone else in society should accept the claims and precepts of those beliefs. |
Topic | Capcom is taking the piss with these DLC prices for Monster Hunter World |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 7:51:06 PM #68 | Meh, I don't mind. For cosmetic/cameo shit like that, the "buy if you want, ignore if you don't" strategy works well. And I wouldn't hold my breath for it to be included in the Monster Hunter World Ultimate. |

Dragonblade01 02/19/18 6:33:04 PM #118 | One of the problems with Man of Steel is the same problem that a lot of the DCCU has. It sets things up to tell the story of a new universe with their own interpretations of the characters, but then they demand the audience view things through the lens of past interpretations. Like, so what if |
Topic | Found a reasonable gun control suggestion on Twitter |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 1:42:30 AM #3 | We're all approaching this situation wrong. Instead of getting rid of guns, let's just get rid of all the people. Then it won't matter how many guns there are. |
Topic | CNN's takeaway from Black Panther is ''I hope they make Muslim Man next!'' |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 1:40:03 AM #38 | I'm not really sure how you create a readily recognizable religious superhero without either turning it into a religious moral story or having all the superhero story take a backseat to religious affirmation. |

Topic | in what ways are Christians in America persecuted? |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 1:14:30 AM #93 | I've made my position on #cakegate pretty clear, but I don't think a business should have a right to refuse service to someone for reasons unrelated to the service itself, with "exception" (though it's arguable that it even is an exception) given to issues related to services which require some form of artistic expression from the provider. |

Topic | I love flat-earthers because they expose insecure narcissists. |
Dragonblade01 02/19/18 1:03:30 AM #12 | Some might be insecure narcissists. Of course, others might simply not like the spread of false information. Others probably just like discussing things. |

Because, superpowers aside, Aquaman has always been surprisingly similar to Black Panther in terms of characterization and motivation. Swashbuckling Aquaman sounds weird, but I guess it could work? I certainly hope it's closer to WW than BvS/JL. Although, if I'm being honest, I don't really think WW was all that great either, just much better by comparison. |
