| Topic | Is the term "white privilege" helping race relations? |
| LJRENEGADE 04/12/18 3:22:51 PM #143 | I don't think a term by itself can help or hurt. Just depends how people use it. |

| LJRENEGADE 04/12/18 12:56:44 PM #45 | Whether he's a racist or just trying to make a lame joke, why would you ever post something like that online, especially if you're a cop? Nothing good will come from that. RchHomieQuanChi posted... I'm just amazed at how racists have had 300+ years to come up with something funnier than these tired stereotypes, yet they've still failed. Yeah, it wasn't even funny. |
| Topic | It seems people just hate when black people speak about racism. |
| LJRENEGADE 04/12/18 11:55:56 AM #58 | pinky0926 posted... or it's just how things are and can't be changed. It is difficult to change though. Especially if its with voice chat and goes unrecorded because then its just one person's word against another's. Its not a perfect solution, but muting people is definitely the easiest. Grischnak posted... I'd say the problem with that video is that it simplifies the issue to be just about racism when in reality online gaming is toxic in just about every context. Everyone gets treated by shit in online games. Everyone. To be fair, the N word is often a go to insult for a lot of scumbags online(especially kids) so if you're black I can see how that would hit you harder then it would hit someone else but generally people don't call people the N word because they know they are black and are trying to be racist, they do it because they are idiots that call everyone that. I think this is true too. Assholes are gonna be assholes, especially when they're anonymous. If they're not calling you the N word, they're calling you a different insult anyway. Hell, they'll probably keep calling you the N word whether they know your race or not. A lot of dudes are just mean people and being anonymous with no consequences means they'll say anything to aggravate you, no matter how offensive. |

"white privilege" is stuff like not having to deal with being asked where you're really from or whether you speak english or not, As someone who can agree white privilege exists to a certain extent, these are really weak points and don't really help your argument imo. Most of these aren't really a big deal at all. |

| LJRENEGADE 04/11/18 11:16:12 AM #85 | hockeybub89 posted... Why do people still think white privilege means "All minorities have shitty lives and all white people are rich and successful"? It's as old as "6 year olds can get their dicks cut off if they like to play with dolls". cjsdowg posted... gatorsPENSbucs posted...Where do I sign up for this white privilege thing I hear so much about. Was it mailed to me or something or is there a phone number I can call? I think because people say things like this that people think that. And I don't mean to attack cjsdowg or anyone, but when people say things like this, I think that's why people think that's what people mean by white privilege. That white people have it easier than black people or minorities. |

| LJRENEGADE 04/09/18 5:39:22 PM #115 | I don't think its a big deal. Its a video game, its supposed to be fun. How does one play a game in a way that's "professional"? And teabagging isn't exactly an uncommon thing in gaming. On the other hand, if you're trying to show off the game and make it look fun to these journalists, team killing and teabagging them may not give the best impression. Its kind of a douche move but its not that big of a deal at all. The journalist is overreacting imo |
| Topic | Black man worth nearly $1 Billion gives lectures on "white privilege." |
| LJRENEGADE 04/09/18 3:28:50 PM #45 | M_Live posted... Why does white privilege trigger people so hard? I think people just don't like hearing from other people that they have it easy/easier, even in cases when its true. Not just with race, I think you could say it about anything and people would react the same way. People don't like having other people tell them they have it easy, true or not, and they get defensive. |
| Topic | Black man worth nearly $1 Billion gives lectures on "white privilege." |
| LJRENEGADE 04/09/18 3:13:24 PM #40 | White privilege does exist to an extent but its usually blown out of proportion. A poor white person has more in common with a poor black person than someone like JayZ does. And JayZ has more in common with someone like Donald Trump than a poor white person does. |

I'm not gonna tell you to end or not since I don't know your situation that well, but if you do end it, tell her. Don't just ghost her, that would probably hurt her more. And even if you don't want a relationship, you could probably still stay friends if you wanted that. |

| Topic | Metal Gear Solid 4 or Metal Gear Solid V? |
| LJRENEGADE 03/29/18 6:13:15 AM #16 | MGS4 for me. There were a lot of things I didn't like about it but it did feel like a more finished package and still had most of things I'd want in a Metal Gear game. Chapters 1, 2, and even 4 were pretty good, but they did kind of drop the ball with 3 and 5 in a lot of ways. But the game did have some cool new ideas here and there. Plus I probably enjoyed it more than V at launch due to being 7 years younger. MGSV was a massive disappointment for me and felt rushed out the door. I think it had mountains of potential but just fell short on almost every aspect, at least for me personally. And I don't understand how people can say it has the best gameplay in the series. Controlling Snake feels nice and smooth but the level design is almost non existent and the game is brokenly unbalanced and easy. Not trying to attack anyone's opinion or say you can't like it, just saying I don't get it. |
| Topic | I understand now how dating, relationships, and attraction works. |
| LJRENEGADE 03/27/18 6:00:47 AM #193 | Tadamoto39 posted... It really should have been obvious. The young pretty girls (even average looking ones) won't give guys like me the time of day. This is because they know that they can get pretty much any guy they want. They get plenty of attention from various men. So they don't have to settle. They can be picky. But girls that are 1/10 are probably shunned by most men. Because of how hideous they are, most guys probably look right through them. So they go after any guy who will just be nice to them and talk to them. Guy like me. It seems like these are the only type of girls that I attract. So either I stay single and lonely because the decent looking girls only want the best looking men and won't give average guys like me a chance, or I lower my standards down to the gutter and settle for a girl that I'm not the slightest bit attracted to, just to have somebody. It's really a no win situation. Assuming this is all real, if you won't settle and only want to date up, why should any more attractive woman settle for you? You don't want people you deem hideous but you want hot people to choose you over someone who's better? If you want to be chosen over other people, then you need to better yourself. You can't have nothing going for you and expect to be dating someone who does. And I understand wanting someone who you're at least attracted to, but looks aren't everything. No offense, but your personality is extremely off putting. You seem like a miserable person. When you're miserable and angry at the world, people can see that and they don't wanna be around you. Deny it if you want, but that's the reality of the situation. For the most part, people wanna be around positive, happy people and they want to avoid negative, mean, angry people. I'd say you should ignore dating right now and just focus on yourself. |
| Topic | I understand why Americans are so hardcore about owning guns. |
| LJRENEGADE 03/26/18 4:47:38 PM #30 | __Fiale__ posted... silentwing26x posted...Why don't you at least try to understand American gun culture and why it is a right and why Americans feel that way? Its possible for other people to get guns illegally. And a gun isn't the only threat to people. Someone could pull a knife on you or simply be bigger and stronger than you. A gun would allow you to defend yourself much more easily in that situation. That's not to say guns are absolutely needed, I'm just saying that just because the other person doesn't have a gun doesn't mean a gun can't be used in self defense, if only as a deterrent.

| Topic | whats up w/people who "don't like youtubers" |
| LJRENEGADE 03/26/18 3:48:01 PM #40 | I like a lot of Youtubers, but there's some things some do that I can't stand. Clickbait/spoilers in titles and thumbnails, having every video title BE IN ALL CAPS FOR EVEN THE MOST MUNDANE STUFF, repeating themselves and dragging out the video so they can put more ads. Its also just off putting when you can tell that someone doesn't actually care about the quality of their content and that they're just doing it for money. Plus a lot of Youtubers just have obnoxious personalities. And while some are shady, some flat out lie like that Sernando guy who keeps making "I GOT GTA 6 EARLY" videos, which is gross when you have an audience of kids. No big deal though, I just don't watch channels like that. |
| Topic | PS+ is such a dumb expense |
| LJRENEGADE 03/24/18 9:24:19 AM #27 | I used to play multiplayer games on PS3 a fair bit but I never played online consistently enough to justify paying for PS+. So I don't pay for it and now I don't play online on Playstation at all, I just got a PC and get all my multiplats on there. Still keep the PS4 for exclusives though. Its too bad, there's some cool looking PS4 exclusive multiplayer games, but its just not worth paying the admission price just for those handful of games. |

| Topic | CE which game in my backlog should I commit to finishing |
| LJRENEGADE 03/23/18 10:46:17 AM #1 | Breath of the Wild - put a decent chunk into and enjoyed a lot of it, but kinda lost interest at some point and never finished it. Yakuza Ishin / Kenzan / that PSP one - barely played these but I own them all. I'm kind of a Yakuza fan boy but I haven't played that much of these because of the language barrier. Also there's supposedly a fan patch for Kenzan and Kurohyou which might be worth waiting for. Also Ishin could be announced for the west one of these days. Maybe. Probably not actually. Devil May Cry 3 / 4 / dmc - barely played these. I played 1 and loved it, but 2 was kinda boring and dragged on for too long. I know 3 and 4 are better, but I just haven't gotten around to them yet since 2 burned me out super hard. I have DmC too. Mass Effect Andromeda - played the first mission. I know its janky but I'd like to give it a proper run through at some point Witcher 3 - played a small chunk like 2 years ago. I finished the first two games right before this which did kind of burn me out a little bit. Prince of Persia Forgotten Sands - almost finished it. Its pretty fun, story is kinda eh tho. Been randomly playing it every now and then for the last year AC Origins - only did the first couple missions. Not my favorite AC game so far but I heard its good so I hope it gets better. But I don't even have the hidden blade or lethal stealth kills yet Sly TiT - only on the second map. This one is really kinda boring me tbh, but I loved the first 3 games. Rise of the Tomb Raider - almost done this one I think. Not a bad game |
