| Topic | Can someone explain the ''For You!'' meme to me like I understand nothing |
| Aristoph 04/13/21 11:37:30 PM #10 | Bane: Noone cared who I was 'till I put on the mask. Guy: If I pull that off, will you die? Bane: It would be extremely painful... Guy: You're a big guy. Bane: ...for you. Dumb people thought he was saying "I'm a big guy for you" but he was actually saying "it would be painful for you." --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Aristoph 04/10/21 9:13:05 PM #8 | Try_Another___ posted... Never understood how anyone could invert Y axis for shooters, especially nowadays Your thumb is the character's head. The stick is the character's neck. Which way do you tilt your neck when you look up? --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
| Topic | How often do you shower |
| Aristoph 04/10/21 9:10:19 PM #10 | Any time I have to go out and be around people for longer than something like picking up a carry-out order. So it depends entirely on how much I have going on. But at minimum once a week because of bowling league. I really hate the sensation of being wet. Doesn't matter how much I dry off afterwards, I always feel gross and clammy for an hour or two after a shower. So if I'm not going out and don't need to look presentable, I avoid it. Hell, even just walking to my car in the rain makes me feel gross and that's only getting my hands/face wet. :-/ --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Topic | Honestly pc gaming isn't all that. |
| Aristoph 04/08/21 9:39:38 PM #20 | MabusIncarnate posted... See i'd need to start from scratch, I have a laptop but not a desktop. It wasn't a troll question, I was legitimately curious. I've always been a console user, i'd consider a gaming PC but i'm not interested in paying what everyone basically says you need, upwards of $1200 to play modern games on. I already have a modern console, and a 800+ game library with a few hundred in my backlog, I know i'd still mainly play on console because I play online with friends who all have the same console. If I could get a gaming PC for $500 i'd do it. The point is, next time you decide you need a new PC, you should get a gaming PC instead of the normal PC you were originally planning on. Instead of buying "PC + Console", you just buy "better PC" and end up with a vastly superior experience overall. And the savings continue for the life of your PC, because places like Steam are constantly doing big sales on popular games. I literally can't remember the last time I paid full price for a video game. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Topic | Honestly pc gaming isn't all that. |
| Aristoph 04/08/21 9:28:20 PM #11 | MabusIncarnate posted... What PC can I buy for $500 that will run games like the Xbox Series X? This is the problem with the price argument for consoles. You're not buying a PC worth $500 for gaming. You're buying a PC because you need a PC to generally exist in the modern world, and you're simply spending $500 more than you would have in order to get higher-end parts for gaming. And you can get a whole lot more powerful machine by putting an extra $500 into your PC than you get for buying a console in addition to that normal PC. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
| Topic | What is 1/(1/0)? |
| Aristoph 04/08/21 9:22:26 PM #3 | Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. So basically, that's just an unnecessarily convoluted way to write "1 x (0/1)" --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Aristoph 04/06/21 11:57:00 PM #24 | Kami_no_Kami posted... People like to talk s*** on BK but Ive never had a bad burger from them. I've literally never had a good one from a BK. Their patties are always dry as a rock and taste like charcoal. They do have top-tier chicken nuggets, as far as fast food places go, though. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
| Topic | Which video games are you playing, CE? |
| Aristoph 04/06/21 11:45:13 PM #10 | Destiny 2 has been taking up pretty much all of my gaming time lately. The current season has been a massive step up from the last few, and I'm legit super hyped for Vault of Glass coming back next season. Before that, I put a good number of hours into Tales of Berseria and Horizon: Zero Dawn. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

There is an infinite amount of them and they can be mined very quickly.

| Topic | You've gained superpowers! Do you tell your parents? |
| Aristoph 03/27/21 1:54:50 AM #5 | Depends on the powers and what I plan to do with them. I suppose I would at least not tell them (or anybody else, for that matter) until I had gotten a decent grasp on exactly what I can do and what my limits are. Provided it's relatively easy to keep quiet, at least. If I turned into Cyclops and started shooting lasers out of my eyes at all times, I'm probably going to start getting questioned when I'm walking around the house with sunglasses on 24/7. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Topic | I need a new mouse! Please help me find a new mouse! |
| Aristoph 03/23/21 2:19:47 AM #5 | I had a G900 for a while before it started having problems. Decided to upgrade to the G903 a couple years ago and it's been flawless for me. Got a couple friends with G5xx and G6xx series that also love them. Logitech is a pretty reliable option for most hardware. Their problems are more with software. I've had issues with the automatic profile switching when I launch a game on both my old G900 and the new G903. Sometimes it just simply stops working for one or two applications but the rest are behaving just fine. Sometimes it just flat-out doesn't work at all until I reboot the computer. I think it might have something to do with the updates, but whatever it is is clearly on the software side so not really a knock against the mouse itself. Just something to keep in mind if you go for a Logitech. And in spite of the software, I do still recommend it. I've been very happy with mine. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

God, it was over 10 years ago now...I want to say it was somewhere around $15k? Parents paid a good portion of it, though, so that might be a little off. But it was worth every penny. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
| Topic | Do you want to have kids? |
| Aristoph 03/13/21 2:07:43 AM #8 | Not particularly. I can't stand kids until they reach like 10-13 years old and start grasping some basic logic. I have no tolerance for screaming, and that's about all they know how to do before then. I do have a niece and nephew who are 7 and 4. Fun to be around in short bursts. But I'm so fucking glad I can just go home when they start throwing tantrums. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
| Topic | Have you ever had an adult tooth pulled? |
| Aristoph 03/13/21 1:55:26 AM #10 | AlCalavicci posted... holy shit why did you need that many pulled? They were rotted and cracked. I had really, really crooked teeth as a kid. Didn't matter how much I brushed or flossed, I had new cavities every time I went to the dentist. I tried to get braces 3 times, but I had a bad gag reflex and they could never get a clean mold of my teeth to make them. There's only so many times you can make a 12 year old kid throw up on himself in the dentist chair before he tells you to go fuck yourself. :-/ After that I just stopped trying to care for them. Quit brushing/flossing entirely because it made no difference. Just rinsed with mouthwash so I didn't have bad breath. Eventually they deteriorated to the point where I had exposed nerves and broken teeth. Then my brother proposed to his girlfriend and asked me to be his best man. I decided then that there was no way I was going to be in his wedding photos and not be able to smile, so I talked with my parents and they said they would help me pay for it all (it was definitely not cheap...). They pulled the front 5 teeth and the back 2 molars on both sides of the upper jaw, along with all of my molars on the bottom jaw. I got a titanium screw implanted on either side of the bottom jaw to fit molars, along with 3 screws on the top in front for a bridge to replace the 5 teeth there. Took about a year and a half in total, but it's been worth every penny. I can't even describe what it's like to go from being completely unable to open your mouth in public without being embarrassed to smiling so often that people go out of their way to say how much they love that I'm always in a good mood. EDIT: Forgot about the 4 impacted wisdom teeth. 5 top front + 2 top molars + 4 bottom molars + 4 wisdom teeth = 15 total. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

| Aristoph 03/13/21 12:43:55 AM #3 | I have no problem with it. Personally, I usually use a napkin. Not because I buy them, though. They just always throw like 20 of them in the bag whenever you get fast food, so I keep the extras and use them for other meals. So we just have a little stack of McDonalds napkins on the counter in the kitchen next to our paper tower holder. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |

Without the AC running its a fucking nightmare even with all the fans running on full blast. Ohio. Doesn't really matter, though. I've lived through plenty of hot summers, even 100+ degrees, and never once felt the need for AC. I'm perfectly comfortable if I'm sitting on the couch watching TV and sweating.

| Topic | Is "pretty sure" more or less than just "sure"? |
| Aristoph 03/11/21 2:25:46 AM #23 | For myself and the people I know, it depends. If "pretty" is emphasized, then it's slightly less certain. If "sure" is emphasized, then it's slightly more certain. If there's no emphasis, then it's more like "as long as what I've been told is accurate." --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules |
