it would also be a lot less troublesome if it wasn't a white supremacist slogan. but here we are
Thats why I said in some cases its warranted. On the flipside, there are certain to be some who are using it innocuously, at least, as innocuously as they can be. Its not too uncommon to see sweeping negative generalizations of white people. Of course, if you asked those people, they would say that if it doesnt apply to that white person, dont worry about it.
However, not everyone is as informed or understanding of the intent that goes behind tweet or whatever. Yes, the white dude isnt gonna get arrested at a higher rate because of a tweet, but thats not the point.

He didnt keep the karma. This was years ago, and he only has 3000some. This is just what he accumulated with his actual account.

Im not 100% sure thats the reason, but it is correct that WV split off from the Confederate Virginia and joined the union. Not that it stops me from occasionally seeing Confederate flags, and one time a Confederate flag tattoo

I change characters all the time. More recently been using Palutena, my area is infested with superheavy mains. I actually stopped playing Smash in tournament for a long while, I think Im remembering why.

Different game but same premise....I played in a Madden Challenge event a few years ago and I was beating the guy so badly he tried to hit my control out of my hand. I had to go and get a tournament official who then ended the game and deemed me the winner. Kid was fuming mad.

Fortunately Ive not had it that bad, there is one guy there who goes off the wall but is relatively tame in tournament.

Playing in a tournament is stressful. The popoff is the culmination of that stress

True enough. I never hold it against someone for popping off, but these people seem like theyre only stressed against me or something, and everyone else is just par the course. The difference between beating someone who gets mad and someone who respectfully fist bumps or handshakes is amazing,

You're not in the wrong for feeling the way you do TC. I love video games and competitive fighting games and like improving and testing my skills against other people despite not being pro level, but I sometimes I usually hate playing some people, because they forget that it's main purpose is for mutual entertainment and fun and let their ego run wild and be absolute scumbags. Serious, non playful, "popping off" is toxic and disrespectful as fuck, as it's basically a form of prolonged gloating that subjects the defeated to further embarrassment when they may just really want to fist bump / handshake and then get some air, etc. and get over the tension after the match. If players would try to build each other up instead of tear each other down, the various fighting game communities could become more tight knit and stronger in the long run, but that will never happen. Not everyone can rise to the "challenge" of being a decent person.

Thats an interesting way to look at it. I believe popping off usually isnt meant in a bad way, even when people do it out of anger. People build up a lot of emotions and just have to let it out some way. But man, I wish people could hold in their joy or saltiness just a little bit sometimes. I always fistbump right after a win or loss, I believe its the most respectful thing to do. I feel like the frequency of people who pop off on me is way higher than anyone else in my local. I guess because how good I am fluctuates and maybe the characters I play,

I had people get angry at me when I beat them. I remember beating a Palutena player who was fuming after losing. You could feel the anger and he even janked his controller badly. I also had my first rage quit like a week ago where a Ridley player just quit the game after getting roller'd in a last stock last game situation. I dunno but I actually felt bad over that for some reason.

I feel terrible every time someone gets mad after playing me, its so awful. I cant revel in salt or anything, thats just not my personality.

Sad_Face posted...
I know exactly where to throw my money at with $20 million. In fact, I'd take $5 million and let you guys go with the rest (okay not really).

The $3K a day option is a terrible idea. The purchasing power of $3000 in 2019 is worth less than the purchasing power of $3000 in 2009, which is worth less than the purchasing power of $3000 in 1999. Inflation is going to devalue your wealth. So take the lump sum one time and learn to invest and maintain your wealth. And with the Fourth Industrial Revolution coming, every nation is researching Distributed Ledger tech (blockchain and the like) to back a new stablecoin that would be the new world reserve currency. If one rises and is hopefully not Facebook's libra coin, the US dollar could very well collapse in value.

The OP states that the 3k a day is adjusted for inflation, by the way.

I dunno if I could ever play smash at a con, not that Ive gone to one. Itd probably bottleneck me hard from trying new stuff.

Once I play people close to skill level, they either excessively pop off in victory, sometimes not even if its close. Other times Ill win and people go 0-100 in anger, while some slowly build the anger up. Makes me feel awful, then when I left early cause I lost all energy due to that, they got mad at me for messing up bracket. so I came back and won but still, didnt make me feel better at all.

Its a shame because most of the time I would gladly call these people friends. I feel like Im not in the wrong for this but idk.

Honestly I thought blackface was specifically coloring your face black and painting your lips red, as a caricature. As opposed to somewhat tanning your skin for an Arab themed costume (though considering its in 2001 >_>). It also seems like it may look darker than it is since the photo is in BW, maybe it doesnt make a difference.
