that's exactly what it means. you see an opinion that triggers you and so you go crying to the mods about it instead of sucking it up and accepting that others feel different than you.

I still remember a poster unironically advocating for people who played a genre of games to be shot.

When I pointed out "wtf, direct violent incitement" I was told by the enlightened posters of gfaqs that "It isnt a violation just because you find it upsetting." A literal death threat.

Yes, you heard that right, people had to be told that "I want them shot and killed" wasnt "just a difference in opinion."

Here's where this falls apart as stupid, in my opinion. If I pal around with child molesters, defend the child molesters, fund child molester a, deflect when people bring up the fact that they are child molesters, and never condemn child molesting, it's not a stretch for someone to claim I am in league with child molesters.

What a shame though. Sad.

"Oh my God every day my chances of death increase!" Have fun with that.

Making two posts about death in a topic asking if you might be dead at some future date is thinking about death all the time?

Also, how is someone's life unfulfilled because they dont think they'll still be around 57 years in the future? Thats literally a longer span than I have lived thus far.

Yeah, before they did it this way people being ignored would ask people to quote them just so they can harass people who wouldnt otherwise read them at all.

To be fair, Boob Armor is absolutely stupid. Extend the breastplate a few inches to avoid compression. it's not a good idea to have Boob armor either. You want something that spreads the impact out on as much surface area as possible, boob armor concentrates the impact

The boob armor pictured would spread out the impact.

Its also irrelevant as the Star Wars universe uses energy weapons so ballistics would be less important than comfort (not like shield generators require a certain shape).

Its like people no longer understand the point of comedy at all.

Positioning without the ability to control movement really cant get too ambitious without being really annoying. I think what they should have done instead is make positionals much more powerful than screen nukes to justify using them in the appropriate situation.
Well, usually the positionals were more powerful, but the screen nukes were frequently enough to one-shot the enemy group so there was no reason not to opt for the lazy wipe route.

The enemies in that game as a whole needed more hp and/or defense.

Don't know why you guys even bother engaging clonethehero lmao

Hes obviously shitposting but its a mentality many deluded people genuinely have and thus worth addressing even if he isnt.

https://getdivvy.com/blog/minimum-wage-vs-living-wage/

One state currently has a minimum wage considered a living wage, as long as you're alone. Single earners of minimum wage that have families 100% cannot get by with even a minimum standard of living, and if the minimum were raised to 15$ those families would still not make it (and even dual earners frequently dont).

Bear in mind "living wage" doesnt mean "money to invest," it means they can cover all basic essential expenses without welfare. no ps5, no fancy phone, just bills paid.

And yet somehow this dude magically paid all their bills and invested so wisely they retired early, all on a minimum wage that statistically wont even cover basic expenses. Anyone can do it lol.

In the United States, the generation was comparatively small because the Great Depression of the 1930s and World War II in the early-mid 1940s caused people to have fewer children.[3] It includes most of those who fought during the Korean War. They are noted as forming the leadership of the civil rights movement as well as comprising the "silent majority".[4]

Lmao yeah thats not a slanted interpretation at all. So somehow they only helped with good things, amd none of them manned the hoses or served as one of the many politicians who blocked the same Civil Rights movement you say? Do tell.

Go on, go tell the legless veteran on the street with PTSD to just spend 50% on bills and invest the other 30-40% of whats in his change bucket. He will surely be on the path to retirement in no time! Since every situation is equivalent to yours, and everyone can do it like you just said . . .
