Surprised me

I’m glad I’m not the only one like this. I don’t play single player games often because it seems like they’re all 60+ hours long. That’s such an investment in my mind. It’s especially frustrating for me getting stuck on a level or boss in a single player game, because when I get stuck, that’s it. I can’t progress, and now I’m stressing about the video game I just bought and can’t complete.

On the other hand, with multiplayer I can do a quick match whenever if I have a spare half-hour. And I like that you compared multiplayer games to sports, because that’s how I see it too. I’m just there to improve my skills and test them against real people in an even match. So what if I lose? That’s part of the game, I’ll get them next time. Or not, I’m honestly ass at video games in general, but I like a little healthy competition, and I like reading opponents and trying to get into their OODA loop. I don’t even play with mic chat on except with friends, so I don’t hear trash talking, it’s just that NPC’s in singleplayer games don’t do it for me. They feel like puppets. I get bored of that so fast. I’d rather watch a movie or read a book if I’m going to entertain myself alone without Internet.

I don’t mean for this to come across as bashing single player games, tons of them look like a lot of fun. Truthfully, I’m jealous of the people who enjoy them because it seems like I’m just not wired to.

I dunno, I don’t just ignore ads, I find them repulsive, like my scam-alarms go off even when I know that it’s probably a legit product. Seriously unless I get a recommendation from an actual person, the brand I’ve never heard of feels safer to me then the brand I saw a cheap ad for on some janky website. Maybe it’s because so much of the stuff I had growing up was knockoff/store brand, so I’ve hardly ever actually experienced anything that I saw an ad for.

Oh neat, that makes sense given the Babylonians base-60 numbering system

This is my favorite pirate joke

It’s big. It’s heavy. It’s wood.

Done

It took me like 15 😭

There used to be some truth to the advise of not washing cast iron because those old-fashioned soaps had lye that could break down the seasoning. So I guess if you like to use boutique soaps you should be mindful if they contain lye. But if you’re just using dawn dish soap like probably 90% of everybody, go to town, you’re not going to remove seasoning with dish soap

Used to be one of those 8th graders. Can confirm. My inability to shut up was hilariously inconvenient and consequential

Tater tots are essentially just cylindered hash browns, which I’m sure are ancient. I don’t do these hot dishes but I use tater tots in breakfast burritos from time to time

Whatever dude, now I can’t stop thinking about Grandma’s cinnamon-raisin bread

Also not op, it might be a shih-Tzu? Not confident though

And pubg isn’t exactly the latest thing anymore either. It came out in 2017.

This comment goes for pretty much the whole grunge genre, but especially Pearl Jam. I hated the vocals. But then I went a few years without listening to the radio at all so I forgot they existed, and got pretty into Rush. I guess Geddy’s vocals desensitized me or something because I eventually stumbled on Pearl Jam again and… they actually kicked ass.

Ja, buns and thighs

Plus that third time. Lol that was a good one
