Poll of the Day > What's Zeus up to? A topic of triviality

(+) Yeah! (+)

It's a rarity to come across a human being that would be foolish enough to continue a topic that portrays him as a clown. >__>

Hey Erik

NPR ran a neat segment discussing Native American trails... but I missed most of it. Tried to look it up since they often have recordings/articles for these (especially since a lot are rebroadcasts) but was only able to find this:
http://www.npr.org/2017/05/10/527817921/kansas-archaeologist-rediscovers-lost-native-american-city

And then some NPR articles about people trying to exterminate tribes in the 1920s. However, when looking for the NPR story, I found an article on trail trees:
http://wfae.org/post/native-american-trail-trees-rebroadcast

It was particularly of interest because Through a Howling Wilderness discussed native trails being used by white settlers (and, as the broadcast mentioned, at least some native trails were based on trails hewn by migrating animals; side-note, my spellcheck apparently doesn't have the word "hewn" in it and, when I googled it, I learned that it refers more specifically to things fashioned by a tool so my usage is more metaphorical than literal).

tbh, can't let the terrorists win. Then they just come back and demand more the next month (or, rather, just brigade my new topic). Besides, it's the same group of shit trolls most of whom aren't taken that seriously anyway (Melon generally being an exception, but I'm not going to tolerate his harassment so I'm taking a break from him) #RiseAboveHate #YouGuysHaveConstantlyBeenAskingMeToBlockErik

Zeus is watching Sharknado 2. Already blanked on an earlier weird pop-culture reference, but wanted to make a note of Jared Fogle making a cameo >_> iirc, the other thing which escapes me atm was another somewhat unfortunate choice.

"You're not going to get a chainsaw in New York. You're going to need to Long Island or Jersey. You don't want to go to Jersey."

Oh, the other thing was Kelly & Michael, the daytime (?) talk duo who broke up.

Great film, though. Much better than the first in terms of humor, effects, etc.

The Millionaire Next Door

I was surprised about the amount of praise heaped on this book. I would hardly categorize it as a self-help book, it's more a retrospective on the authors' research and a collection of anecdotes and interesting conclusions about the countless Americans leading unglamorous lives while accumulating appreciable amounts of wealth. It's a quick read and I made it through the whole book on a 5-hour flight with time to spare. I would only recommend this book as an interesting overview of some good financial habits, or as an eye-opener for those with luxurious financial tendencies who struggle to save money despite their income level. However, for those who have already developed some discipline and are looking for detailed strategies and advice on personal finance and building wealth via investments and generating passive income, look elsewhere.

Knew your old. No wonder you're still on the Trump train. Your readin an outdated 21 y/o book for peeps who can't budget. Buyin gold toilets.

Okay, about a month ago I made this topic partly because my tabs were out of control. Fast forward, I've got a massive number of tabs again.

This time, most of the new ones are either redundant (ie, multiples, etc), things I finished, etc, so I can get rid of them. However, here's the latest batch of random stuff:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Made_in_America_(1993_film)

An early film featuring Will Smith, which I learned about because of Will Smith. It's about the daughter of a black professor learning that her father, an anonymous sperm donor, was a white car dealer. It sounds amusing.

Somewhat related to the Sanders controversy, although there's apparently no direct connection. Back when the robbery happened, it almost seemed intended to make certain documents disappear but the thief's intent doesn't seem to be a cover-up now.

Found some lackluster music video covers of some songs from Hamilton, while looking for another video to post in AllStar's songs topic. The performance aspects look pretty decent, but the vocals aren't great compared to the real deal.

General note on GBA-SP models (taken from a post on another board) because I always forget the model numbers

The AGS-001 and AGS-101
the AGS-001 was the first SP model released with a front lit screen then a while later Nintendo further upgraded the SP and released the AGS-101 with a back-lit screen which was a huge improvement over the 001 with a much brighter screen.
here's a comparison
the 001 on the left and the 101 on the right

Because every single one of your points was already debunked or proven stupid yet you're doubling down on your wrongness and want to continue pointlessly arguing like a common Erik P. All of which is a continuation of your refusal to admit that you were wrong earlier on.

Not my fault you decide to run it with bizarre rules in the most rigged way in the history of rigging. Shouldn't have to read some crazy fine print for a hurt/heal because everybody knows how they work.
---

Zeus can't get his head round hurt heal topic rules.

Maybe if Zeus paid attention he would've noticed the rules were at the very top of the hurt/heal topic. There was no fine print. It was clear.

Pull your head out of your ass and accept some responsibility for once, in this case, you being incapable of reading comprehension.

You literally used a connection between sleep's mechanics in a generation to efficacy of sleep powder then in the next breath were all like, "Well, no, sleep mechanics and sleep powder don't matter, hurr durr." Either you have the world's shortest memory or you're one of its biggest trolls. Which is it?

There's a thing called deceptive marketing and deceptive practices. You ran a hurt/heal where your heals actually hurt and then cite some nonsense in the fine print. You're talking about how life works but, if you tried pulling that shit irl, you'd likely lose the ensuing lawsuit.

My original argument was against your assertion that Sleep Powder was OP. There's a big difference between "Sleep Powder is OP" and "Sleep Powder is OP in relation to Bulbasaur in gen 1." I'm trying to argue the first quote. You're trying to argue the second. You're literally changing the topic, which is why you can't see past what I'm saying.

Also still waiting to hear back on what's wrong with the wording in my polls.

Funny that you don't highlight your response claiming no correlation between sleep and sleep powder. It's almost like you're being purposefully deceptive yet again.

Otherwise, you mean the polls that don't exist any more? Including one where I specifically pointed out what was wrong with your wording? You deliberately worded it to evoke a contrarian response and chose a casual board where you knew you'd very likely get that kind of a response. It would be like conducting a poll where you asked conservatives if they felt that Obama was one of America's greatest presidents to disprove the claim that Obama was a great president (absurd hypothetical, I know, but only in the sense that Obama was a great president)

Use specifics. You keep saying it's "worded deliberately" without explaining how, why, or which words are wrong. Even better, you could suggest your own variant of the question since it's apparently so easy.

Zeus posted...

A.) I was looking for wording problems.
B.) Why is GameFAQs not allowed to be competitive? Just because you say so? Who says a majority of those users aren't also on Smogon, but like posting to multiple places? But again, feel free to post on Smogon yourself, since I'm banned there. Otherwise, until that happens, you have no evidence on which to base your claim that this board isn't "competitive."
C.) How could I possibly know what response I'd get there? I have no idea what anyone thinks of Sleep Powder, competitive or non-competitive.

Zeus posted...

Again, the board isn't the problem. It's the wording (according to you). But either way, the poll is nonbiased because:

Muffinz0rz posted...

And secondly, there's no way of knowing which response I want. For all the polltaker knows, one of the following two situations happened:

1.) I just lost to Sleep Powder and claimed that it was OP. My opponent disagreed, saying it wasn't OP. So, I created the poll(s), hoping people would vote that Sleep Powder was OP.

2.) I just won with Sleep Powder and my opponent claimed that it was OP. I disagreed, saying it wasn't OP. So, I created the poll(s), hoping people would vote that Sleep Powder wasn't OP.

All of my poll topics are worded so that either of these situations could fit, for the specific purpose of being unbiased. The polltaker has no way of knowing if I want them to vote Sleep Powder as OP or not.
