That's how I felt about infinity war and endgame.
I decided not to watch after finding out it was a 2 parter, then after endgame came out I still hadn't watched it after a good year and a half.
Then someone spoiled the ending out of nowhere in a post and I decided I'd finally watch it.
I'm impressed you've gone this long.
Lmao no I grew up in the 90s, and we only got cheap secondhand n64 games. The apartments I grew up in were in the middle of trailer parks, but they all owned the land their trailers were on so I'll leave it up to the reader to determine who was more bougie.
My dad was the one who wanted the consoles and he isn't tech savvy, so until I got my own money, it was always "plug and play" things, none of those new-fangled computers until Windows ME.
And hilariously, I got an old macintosh in the mid 2000s and had fun figuring everything out by trial and error based off what I knew of computers at the time. Even had the x wing game on several floppies.
I would have loved having a computer when you had to actually know how it works to use it.
I remember waiting for next month's issue of different gaming magazines... I never bothered knowing which magazine it was, I just waited for my dad to return from the store with whichever one he wanted that day.
Honestly I miss in-depth game guides with the two pages of ASCII art at the top.
Younger me would have been blown away that reading would help me beat games in the future.
For the record, I have a small library now but when I first started playing NES-N64 games, I absolutely hated reading and never would have cracked open the manuals.
Found this out completely by accident once after my sister and I played some Mario.
I had the 2nd controller still plugged in, and while shooting the ducks I stepped on the controller and the ducks moved differently.
From the on, every time someone wanted to play duck hunt I would grab a second controller and make it harder for them.
Bonus knowledge: the original game works by a light-sensitive sensor in the blaster tip, and when you pull the trigger, the screen goes black and a white square appears whee the ducks were, in a specific order. If the game controller detects the light square, it counts as a "hit" on whatever duck was in frame. You can cheat by pointing the blaster at a white light and pulling the trigger. It will just go through them one by one as you squeeze, thinking the light is the duck square.
Sounds like your friend is just lame.
In seriousness, 99.999999% of people will live a "normal" life, and very occasionally, someone might have a time or two that elevates it above "normal". The percentage of people who live "above" normal lives is so tiny, physicists would laugh at you for using so many decimal places.
Wanting more isn't a problem unless that desire is killing what you have to be happy about now.
In other words, "don't let perfect get in the way of good"
And I’ve heard all the platitudes.
I like to make people uncomfortable when they start going on about how my wife and I should have kids. She had a TL and I had a vasectomy. I usually start off with "kids are off the table for us."
We SHOULDN'T have kids because genetics on both our families are shit.
We WON'T have kids because they're awful to deal with 90% of the time, and neither of us feel that the world will be a livable place in their lifetime so it would be cruel to have children anyway.
We CAN'T have kids because the medical procedures.
If someone gets pushy about it, I act emotional, burst out that after so many miscarriages we have given up on children and the person should learn to take a hint.
So far nobody has had anything else to say after that.
Non-uniformed chucklefucks claiming to be law enforcement while acting like gang members and thugs, getting ready to break into a house?
Sounds like a good time for armed resistance to arrest the clearly illegal kidnapping or robbery. If they are armed and make any move toward weapons, there is only one response. Defend your life, and defend the victims, with all the force necessary to do so.
I actually think ICE WANTS this to happen so they can justify being even harsher or just straight up executing people in the street. It's not like law enforcement hasn't executed someone in front of dozens of witnesses while being recorded...
11 minutes vs 3 is a long time.
I'm gonna go with "ascended energy being" since that's a common trope. Nothing springs to mind otherwise.
You are not going to be depressed when you start to get a nice body.
Lol
LMAO, even.
I dropped from ~300 to 167lbs between april 2014 and March 2015, I had a 6 pack and had more energy than I ever had in my adult life.
Still depressed as fuck.
Being in shape won't fix your psychological problems.
A 7 million fine for stealing 1 billion in profits.
Just another day in late stage capitalism.
Of course someone usually has to go to jail for something so public, so Steve from accounting is getting his "jailbird bonus" and will be admitting to fraud, and spend 4 months in a ~~hotel~~ cushioned cell. He also gets weekends off.
I'd be happy to join a Canadian foreign legion. I view protecting Canada from foreign aggression my patriotic duty as a fellow human being, and neighbor.
Besides, once upon a time I swore an oath to protect my country from threats foreign and domestic, so I am honor bound to fight alongside Canada against the biggest threat the US has ever faced.
I'm not sure how many Americans would join me, or how receptive Canadians would even be to a bunch of tacticool looking non-professionals with guns showing up and CLAIMING to want to help, but I'm positive there will be americans fighting back. Whether it's on the front lines with guns, or with sabotage in the states, who can say.
