I wonder why they provided a budget and did video editing work just to say they were releasing a bunch of ports/hd remakes and mediocre stuff for the beginning of the year?

I thought it was already pretty well assumed they and every platform/game company does that kind of year round anyway while they still work on the stuff that matters... doesn't seem like something you need to make a direct about and waste time actually presenting like you're PROUD of it?

I wouldn't even think to ask or figure out whether the person was the modern and popular definition of "racist" or not.

I'm guessing it would involve a line of questioning or gathering of opinions from them on a bunch of subject matter topics I dont even care about...or observing behaviors I'm supposed to be able to discern racism/non-racism from based on those modern standards?

Thing is...if I'm the one bothering with all that nonsense they should probably break up with ME. There's better things to do with ones time... and if they have any self respect they'll think the same thing and not want me and my racism focused behaviors around them.

Well, One Piece does almost everything that any other Shonen manga tried to do before and maybe since...and does it better.

Do yeah that includes the factions.

But also it includes power scaling and how the unique powers are used...story...characters...world building.

There's almost not a point to other Shonen manga if you already read One Piece.

Well...there is art. One piece isn't the absolute best at that for sure. So if arts what you care about most then yeah one piece may not be so great. But otherwise everything I said above stands.

38 now and I can confirm...the act of making friends is absolutely discouraged, unappreciated and 95% likely to get me in some form of trouble either financially, martially or scare my kids. It's also just unpleasant for me as well...even the part where I just try and be friendly (outside of the norm) is pretty much physically painful for me. Almost all places to meet people are trashy (bars) or excessively loud (bars again, clubs, bowling alleys, anywhere public with lots of people) or filled with overbearing virtue signaling lunatics (add to the list churches or any type of select "society" types of groups (like country clubs, volunteer work...etc).

And I get NO benefit from any of these efforts, and a lot of wasted time I could just be spending with my kids or wife...who are already pretty muc established as all I need to get through my day to day.

Put simply, making friends is a young persons game...and a dumb one they'll get over playing eventually.

To be fair, I'm only pro abortion up until they're 18/legally adults. AT that point, they should be able to decide for themselves if they want to euthanize themselves for a better world or if they will start contributing.

Yeah...the funniest thing is when they make topics that say "to any repubs/supporters of something I don't like, answer my honest question..." If one answers, they get flamed and modded.

They actually WANT people they don't agree with to show up there...so they can find ways to subsequently mod them and vent all their psycho hate.

Or maybe they make those kinds of topics because they realize that if none of those people showed up there ever...they'd truly become the group of angry men children screaming in a room to themselves that the rest of the site already knows they are.

BTW...and non-surprisingly...even insinuating to them that they really are an echo chamber and a lone liberal leaning board that mostly just agrees with themselves...yeah that's also moddable there. They don't even enjoy that very basic reality being presented to them.

There are corners of the internet that you just got to avoid at the end of the day. GFAQs politics is one of them...I guess the only defense is that they aren't absolutely the WORST place on the internet, just in the top ten.

Godfather (1, 2 and 3) and Scarface are not good movies. Scarface is only a little better but they are both very, terribly boring.

Black Panther is also the most boring MCU movie of them all, and only better overall than Thor Dark World and The Hulk. It lacks any of the humor or charm that other MCU movies have.

Alternatively, Wonder Woman 1984, Female Ghostbusters, and the Fast and Furious series were all pretty fun movies.

I maybe overthink it because I like to cook...but how much trial and error would you need to go through to nail the exact right amount of water for the exact desired amount of hardness for all different kinds of pasta? I could see being that good at not wasting even a single drop of water no matter the pasta or hardness after several failed attempts...but only after...and pasta would get wasted until then.

If you really do manage this now though and the pasta is exactly like you like it...then hats off.

But like. We all have eyes. Aerith is clearly attractive and designed to be such. And personally I find both her appearance and personality more appealing than Tifa's. So what's up with every in universe character thinking Tifa is so incredibly hot? Is it just because she's got big boobs?

Its not like Tifas a butter face tho...

So since she's getting a 10 in all parameters while Aerith just hits a few...well thats where its coming from.

Now, after becoming obsessed with Dark Souls 3, another class-based game, and completing it tens of times, even speedrunning it and getting a 1:30:00 time, I have a craving for a class-based RPG. I figured I could download Skyrim on my Nintendo Switch and finally give it a proper go.

The mistake is bolded for your convenience. Skyrim is intended for PC.

I used to work at Whole Foods. The company had potential. Good benefits, good place to meet friends, a seemingly good code of ethics. But Mackey's idea of "conscious capitalism" is bogus, nevermind the Amazon takeover accelerating the decline. That dude is honestly nuts. I actually got to meet him once as he and some other higher ups did a tour of our store (we were the newest and one of the largest Whole Foods in Silicon Valley).

Here's one of my favorite stories involving John Mackey: we were have a store meeting that was going to be "extra special" because John Mackey was going to livestream a short speech and then do a Q&A with team members. Since it was an all store meeting and we're a grocery store, it was done before we opened, so we're all here at 6am. After Mackey gives his predictably boring spiel one of the people asks "what do you like to do in your free time?" And to a team of 200+ people he does not know his answer, without a hint of irony or humor, is "masturbate." A single word. And onto the next question. It was awkward, surreal, and uncomfortable. If meant for humor, it completely missed the mark. But anyway, that's John Mackey for you.


I actually respect him a little more for that. Gave a true answer and didn't care about corporate niceties or that you all were in a grocery store where they serve gallons of milk. He just went for it.

Teaching is just a bach degree and certification with maybe a few extra classes...the fact that some here think it speaks to being of a "higher level" kind of tells me the kind of smaller thinking I should probably expect from the norm gamefaqs POTD "pro 100% school shutdown" kind of person.

I mean sure I only did 10 years after college working horrible and ridiculously political office work...actually with a lot of people who probably thought like those in this thread do (that it was "high level" super achievement work and theyd gotten somewhere). But after that...when it was okay to settle for a little less and not be as stressed every day there was the bus driving thing.

Probably career wise not even an idea in the head of many here for a couple of years really so I see the disconnect.

Regardless...it took forever to get to this stage and work wasn't making me just want to slap every annoying office-gossiping face I saw every day. It was a huge effort and a lot of pain to get to this stage in life though.

So to now have it ripped away...or attempted at least to be ripped away because people, especially teachers are STILL whining about the virus. Yeah...they deserve no sympathy. Even worse is they have made this online stuff all on the parents anyway. So why even pay them anymore? I thought thier amazing bach degrees were supposed to make them deities right? But if just all the parents are doing it anyway could it be its not so special after all?!? Shock.

Luckily most districts are opening up regardless. Going to start next week with one that's actually closer. One that was probably more reasonable and told the teachers and principals etc to shove off with thier whining. Hope they all get fired.

I constantly heard everyone say "just get a job if you're on unemployment"...like all summer

But the district and our direct supervisors told us constantly that we'd be coming back and there would be a definite need for us when schools restarted. And since it was so hard to find anything anyway...and I liked my job with the school it was assumed to be pointless to just go do something else. They were paying decently enough for unemployment...and the assumption was itd be available and not run out before we alll went back to work next semester.

Now the schools want to completely decide for every parent in my district that they all HAVE to keep their kids home...when all this stuff is suddenly running out at the same time and they are basically hitting us with blow after blow.

Well...hope any districts that do this lose ALL of their non salaried employess and suffer GREATLY when they try to reopen and have non of them ready and available for work. I hope its so bad they stay shut down longer and/or lose funding. They deserve to suffer for this.

Luckily every district needs employees...going to a better one where they did reopen and just gave parents the option for at home lessons.

Give everyone the option for thier kids to do at home or in class lessons. If even 30% of the students are all that are going it should at least lower the spread some and not put other school workers out of work and the entire population doing teachers jobs for them so they can be paid while we aren't...because they're so "scared"

I'll take the 100% chance I'm not jobless and evicted vs the 5% or lower chance I catch the virus from work and die thanks.

And hey...it was always about just slowing the spread anyway not seeing the virus gone...so giving people the option to send kids to schools (which CDC has recommended anyway) if they want to do it is definitely in line with that and is the option that doesn't just completely screw over school workers who don't get salary

...And they haven't got this system down...at all...not even slightly.

5 months of prep so they could do it worse and more confusingly than they did in spring. Guess when my kindergartener starts next week it's going to be even more atrocious. This was a crappy plan and planned like crap.

Not sure what's more annoying...doing these lessons basically for the teachers so they can keep getting salary and "feel safe" while I probably get put out of a job since I work for a school as well but not as a teacher...or the fact that they all had 5 months and they give us this crap...and people think its a viable alternative to real school anyway

If you're on employment, you're not on furlough and thus should be looking for employment.

I got the unemployment pay +$600 all summer and I work for school, and am expected to come back when school starts. So call it furlough or true unemployment...I have got the $ that so many say shouldn't be so much/ I didn't deserve and I should be job searching now in order to receive.

It just would have been beyond dumb to job search early on when the assumption was the virus was going to be done at the end of summer. It's still probably a dumb thing to job search even now because they ARE going to reopen eventually.

we should all be getting hazard pay. And more stimulus checks but not for those collecting muthafucking $700/week on unemployment and they aren't looking for a job for the future


So should non teaching school workers start their job search now? Go ahead and tell all the schools to go suck it and when the school year starts leave 0 custodians/drivers/substitutes for any and all schools to work with across America?

I always get curious what the opinion here is when someone says people on unemployment need to be looking for a job.

And forgetting school workers for a bit...what about all the employees in other places that were guaranteed a return to work eventually? Time to just drop the guaranteed job in favor of doing a ton of work searches and interviews to set themselves up somewhere else that's possibly nowhere near as good and stable?

Manhwa does not sound like a vomit noise, not even close, WTF?


If I walk up to a guy and say "man...HWA!" he will likely think I'm hacking something up on him...given the current pandemic I may even get attacked or removed from public property.

I mean, I get that they (Koreans) WANT to think they are important and different enough to deserve their own word for it and even that they all WANTED it so bad they used their definition.

Not arguing what they want to do, just what they should.

What's the Korean word for comic?

Manga and that's that.

They aren't different enough to be called anything else.

Good discussion, good resolution, glad we all agree and nice talk

I mean, you already got your term for that kind of comic...and manga is a fine term...no need to keep pushing the issue right?

"Manhwa" sounds like some kind of vomit noise and should be only categorized as such.

They should make a series of games starring him that are good like two or three times then just follow it up with like 20 or 30 more games over the next two or three decades that blow the hardest ass.

Thier fans would unironically love it and form fandoms for Robotnik and never stop talking about how great his games are.

So skyrim/fallout/sims/minecraft etc...are mods allowed for these kinds of games?

Pretty sure that an ongoing and hot mod scene beats even the benefit from playing an online game
