People have an obsession with lawns you can tell that is the case because even in some areas where maintaining a lawn is a HUGE ordeal to weather that is very unbecoming of keeping a nice lawn we still see neighborhood ordinances that maintain that people have to have a nice lawn no matter the cost.

2.) Hipsters

If money was no object most of those poor college kids would be drinking far superior beers, so then we are left with just the hipsters.


Wouldn't hipsters be drinking some random beer nobody has ever heard of instead of absolute dog piss?

Nah they drink stuff like Pabst and Olympia to be ironic or something I'm not 100% sure.

Getting this actor is very good, if you watch the TV show Chuck he is hilarious in that and it's basically another case of a random dude getting special powers. He knows how to play these characters and he will easily be able to embrace a bit of a goofy role with some real action at times.

In the original version of the game (which I bet many dislikers played), the gambit stores only had a tiny handful of "parts" to choose from early on, and only got a few more every now and then. It wasn't until almost the end of the game that you actually had enough variety to properly be able to use it, regardless of how many slots you had.
.

True, but you really don't need that many slots for it to be helpful. I think my first time playing through the game I only used like 3 slots per character.

Not to mention a large portion of them are not that useful I mean you don't need every single thing like HP <= 10% and MP <= 10% etc.. for every possible number.

You might want to wait for Chandra, Torch of Defiance to rotate out of standard first then.


She is being played in modern a fair bit, so she might actually go up in price after rotation.

Nah, she is a fringe playable in Modern, maybe 2-3 years down the line she will go up but people always drastically overestimate cards when they rotate in Modern. I heard stuff years back like Domi Rade would be a 20-30 dollar card because of Modern etc... Modern has tons of cards to choose from and to be a high value card in modern requires play in multiple decks or being a defining piece of a deck with low supply.

The thing is that most of the people he interviews have no fucking clue who he is so, on some level, that disguise isn't even necessary.

Part of why he had to retire characters like Borat is because roughly 70-90% or more of everyone he interviewed recognized him after the movie came out. Thus why he uses new characters in this show and you won't likely be seeing Borat.

I mean I guess in theory. If you think about it, they are laughably replaceable. Lebron James has a high school degree and that's it, if he never made it to the NBA, he'd be working at Popeye's probably. Idiots who like sports will watch college and even high school level to entertain their minimal minds, so it's not like professional is the only way for them to get their fix. I'm sure there would be people who would play in the NBA for minimum wage if given the chance.

Yeah Joe Blow who lives like 2 blocks down the street has the tools to play basketball as well as LBJ. Part of the reason these players get paid so much to play is that they are hard to find, if everyone could play basketball like LBJ then obviously the skill would be far less impressive.

It's the same thought process of actors, musicians etc... they get large chunks of money because in most cases their work generates large chunks of money and you can't just replace them. If you are a record label and you have Adele as one of your artists if she loses the ability to sing you can't just search around and find another Adele. You can find cheap imitations but they are just that cheap imitations.

Not to mention when talking about basketball players the best ones are coveted by multiple teams so even if one team thinks "LBJ is overpaid" there are 20 other teams that would happily pay him that money or more.

This is like saying Deathly Hallows pt 2 was a bad movie cause you had to watch the first 7 HP movies haha.

Also the problem lies with the way North American TV is mostly set up. People in the USA seem to hate long plot lines in TV, thats why most TV shows are very episodic.

What?

Breaking Bad
The Sopranos
Handmaid's Tale
Westworld
Game of Thrones
The Leftovers
The Walking Dead
etc...

Shit, these days long plot lines are the most beloved of all TV shows the main reason they were uncommon back in the 90s or earlier was due to the fact that there was very few ways to get caught up. So if your friend tells you about a show and its in season 3 back in the 90s watching the first two seasons was a pain in the ass.

How much of a sociopath does one need to be to celebrate the death of someone who criticized the video game they developed?


I honestly have mixed feelings on it. While celebrating death is generally a terrible thing, people tend to get pretty invested in their work and, when you're in entertainment, it's also your livelihood. If somebody is threatening your livelihood, it's kinda understandable to have strong feelings. The problem is platforms which encourage people with strong, offensive opinions to voice those opinions and, in turn, suffer for it. While he was alive, John Bain might have hurt the guy's career. However, by mocking Bain's death, the guy ironically cost himself his job.

Social media generally encourages and facilitates these terrible lapses in judgment in what I assume are otherwise ordinary, reasonable people.

Criticism is required in society to get better, if we don't look at things and go item xyz is bad or item abc is good it doesn't force developers to make better games. While critics can be cruel at times and go a bit beyond the line, I always felt that TB was very constructive and thoughtful with his criticism. He didn't just say stuff like "This game sucks period." He would talk about why it sucked and what could be done to improve it, usually at great length.
