That's been me lately. I've had a few times this week I fell asleep watching movies, even when they were ones I really liked.

Yeah, I don't want to say it is movie related. It might just be me being stressed out lately.

Thoughts?

wasnt expecting it to be an allegory to what it was. I think VVitch was better. This movie was so slow I had to watch it in pieces because I kept getting tired (this might just be me lately though because even the game I am playing is the same lately).

Ok I finished the Orphanage and yeah if was pretty boring.

Orphanage spoiler

when the husband was leaving when she asked for two days. I was like dude there is no way he is leaving her. He has to think this woman has to be a suicide risk. And lo and behold. She commits suicide.

Damn Raw and The Orphanage are two of my faves!

Raw was better than Orphanage. The ending was decent. But it was all kinds of awkward. I figure because it was just foreign. I saw it possibly going a lot of different ways than it did tbqh.

Now that I am thinking about it. Maybe I didn't finish the last 30 minutes of Orphanage because I had to go to work. But, I was very unimpressed with it at that point. Unless the last 30 minutes changes things around then it gets the snorebore from me.

Saw two not new films that were foreign. Raw and The Orphanage. Recommend neither really.

weed isn't illegal everywhere

I am aware. And, I don't care that people smoke weed where it isn't let alone where it is. More people I know around me smoke weed than don't. I just won't do it. Not like I am going narc on them. I for most parts could give a shit less what people do unless it has a tangible affect on me or my loved ones.

Wanna smoke weed? Blow coke? Whatever when at home. Go for it.

Those are your consequences. Your an adult and can make your own decisions.

You wanna shoot heroin while operating heavy machinery around me at work?

You wanna drink alcohol and then get in a car on the same roads as me and my family? Not gonna be too cool about that one!

How do you not see this is the same thing.

It is the same in the effect that they are illegal activities.

I mean it's a rather simple question.

Why is alcohol an acceptable drug to you, but weed is an unacceptable one?

I think alcohol is acceptable because it is legal. I tell my cousin all the time who smokes weed I will try it out when it is legal. Lol.

Then you will say, why did you drive when over the limit then if it is illegal. Which I will reply, that if I thought I was over the limit I wouldn't have. Alcohol is the great deceiver for a reason!

I don't think Weed is particularly a harmful drug. I know it is one that is illegal, could get my fired at my job, and preclude me from getting jobs I want tho!

... How are you even remotely strongly anti-drugs then

I view myself as strong anti-drugs. I don't turn a blind eye to users who don't harm others or cause grief on others with their use, but I do note it as a flaw of theirs. I view harshly those who do cause grief and harm to others. I run my household strongly anti-drugs. I view dealers and distributors as problems, especially those who cause deaths, feed addictions detrimentally, and open pathways to drugs to children. But, all in general.

I have relatively strong views against Rendell's new controlled areas to use drugs. I believe overdoses should not be eternally narcaned. (1 shot to get the message so to speak).

I believe we should be helping people kick drug use addictions that are causing their life problems. Not helping them continue their addiction.

I have many family and friends who use recreational drugs of their choices. I hang out with them. I can sit there and bullshit with them as them and their friends get high. Etc. But, if they asked me if I think they should use drugs, I would say no. They are adults and can make their own decisions however.

No offense, Corrik, but do you not see the wicked irony in being strongly anti-drugs with multiple DUIs?

Not really.

First of all, alcohol is a drug. Secondly, a person smoking weed at home is much less dangerous to everyone including themselves than a person that is drunk behind the wheel of a car.

This response isn't really relevant, IGCD. Don't get caught up in their drama, buddy! PM me if you wanna discuss it! = )

The entire conversation is over once you apply the thing said by tony in reverse.

Isn't it ironic you are strongly pro-drugs if you are against DUIS? Har har! It's silly, buddy.

i doubt steiner just goes around banning people he doesn't like left and right.

nope, just one time

To be fair, I think you banned the guy who said he hoped all drug users died also, I believe! Not that it matters much. But, I think precedence does exist actually

And you think he didn't deserve to be banned over that?

I think it is your decision to make as the person who runs the discord. You can ban whoever you wish to ban. That is your right. I am saying that exercising that right and saying you don't do that also would be a bit contradicting.

I also remember agreeing with you that the person was making pretty vulgar comments that I thought were overboard and had no place to make.

I am strongly anti-drugs also, but culling the population of everyone who uses drugs seems a bit insane, to be frank!

Edit: Sorry, I misread your name as Steiner and addressed the post as such!

yes this is an admission that i have gone so completely mad with power that i can no longer be trusted to run the (un)official board 8 discord server and someone should start a new one to take its place and that person can deal with corrik

Sometimes power is too much for us to wield with just ends.

That said, it does prove Steiner wrong about how the channel does not ban people based on his own opinions. Which proves my initial summation maybe still in this topic itself about the willingness to ban for personal opinion to censor the channel to the liking of the person running it

if steiner "controversially unbanned" you before you were probably not particularly well liked. i assume that if there's a consensus in the discord that one person is too much of a nuisance, that person will get banned as a result. i doubt steiner just goes around banning people he doesn't like left and right.

not saying i don't get your frustration. I'M not particularly well liked on this board, and if an admin decided to ban me from board 8 because "TOO MANY PEOPLE DON'T LIKE YOU LASA," i'd be pretty pissed. but at the same time, i have to admit i would understand it to some extent.

I mean, I don't know. I very rarely use the discord. Mostly just to pm people I know privately.

I believe I stated before how I was banned and that they banned people based on their own opinions, and I was told I was never banned. That I was jokingly just kicked out of the channel and assumed I was banned.

This comment here seems to state something different which means I was actually banned prior and was unbanned. Which would align with what I initially thought that I was banned because someone was mad and unbanned when I questioned it.

Either way, I don't know!

All I know is there seems to be some animosity regarding the usage of "discord clique" after I was bashed repeatedly by Steiner. I didn't report any of his messages besides his second because I was like "hmph if he is gonna accuse me of reporting him I might as well". I thought it was funny actually. Just like I haven't reported his above comments, especially the one saying he hopes my kid has no contact with me or whatever it said. Not big on the reporting game.

However, back to where I was initially going. It always seems like a with a group of like 4-5 people that when you are in disagreement with one of them that all the sudden the others are there in force to dogpile you. Almost always. It always seems like it is none of them in the topic disagreeing with you or all of them.

I am sure it is just someone mentioning it on discord and then them going to the topic and agreeing with the similar opinions. However, it comes off as a clique that likely is in relation to discord somehow. Not some club that people pay membership dues to or some shit. I would think some are even unaware of it, but you tend to notice that coincidence moreso on the other end!

That said, Steiner said I was mistaken regarding it, and I said maybe I was out of the loop regarding it.

Don't know why Steiner reacted the way he did in that topic. Was silly to me. Maybe he is having a bad time at home or something now. Understandable if so. Many people randomly lash out of people when they are frustrated or things are upsetting them. If I can be the vessel for him to unleash his frustration and feel better, I am okay with that!

you were probably disliked by the discord people before, though. that topic was probably the final straw. i doubt they thought you were an amazing user and when you made that topic they went "WTF IS THIS SHIT BANNED."

If a topic about preferring a game on a console is a straw of any kind then that is humorous to say the least.

I don't really care I was banned. I just noticed it the other day when I popped on and laughed about it because it seems so silly.

That said, it does prove Steiner wrong about how the channel does not ban people based on his own opinions. Which proves my initial summation maybe still in this topic itself about the willingness to ban for personal opinion to censor the channel to the liking of the person running it instead of actually providing a talking space for everyone who uses the board as was being stated during contest season.

*Shrug*

Have a nice day!

I did nothing inappropriate in the topic at any point.

you acted like you were super outraged over a minor thing and then you admitted you were being facetious. i personally didn't mind it but not everyone is going to appreciate that style of posting. pretty sure that if you had said "man it kinda sucks that FFVIIR is not coming to xbox one, especially after KHIII did come to it," almost nobody would have had a problem with your topic.

I was having fun with enfusing humor in an over the top way to a subject of interest!

The backlash was simply astounding there and just left me with scratching my head wondering what the hell was in people's water to get so worked up.

I mean, I get not everyone gets my sense of humor, but geez!

no I think it was because of this topic you made https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/77778642

Like I said, I think I was banned from Board 8 Discord for preferring to play games on Xbox and being insulted for it.
