:biggus-piggus: PIG NEWS :sicko-pig:

Age of consent there is something downright medieval. I think like 13 or 14.

Nope, that's just a myth pushed by ... genuinely don't even know who. The national age of consent is lower than that, yes, but that's only because they don't need to raise it because every individual part of the country has a perfectly normal age of consent.

Also I hate to invoke harry potter but going through people’s family history and records to check whether they are or are not a real pure blood has the same energy as the fascist supporters of Voldemort.

:stop-posting-amogus: STOP

My last job was like this weird combination of both. We were in a food packaging plant with heavy machinery active all the time and no air conditioning (so like 100+ degrees at all times) doing hard manual labor for a total of like 2.5h each 8h shift. My direct supervisors didn't really give a shit if we were doing anything for the rest of the time, but we still had to either hide or pretend to work for the rest of the time, and we absolutely could not make any mistakes about it whatsoever. like you might literally be sitting around with nothing to do from 10 to 2, but if 2:02 comes around and you're still not doing anything but across the entire facility some work finally opened up at 1:59 well you're gonna have a fuckin meeting where they shout and threaten to fire you and accuse you of being lazy and shit

have they considered actually doing their jobs as supervisors and letting us know when work opens up? no. of course not. we've just gotta know.

absolutely fucked

edit: just to spell it out as well (because its so ridiculous) they literally just expected us to be walking circles around the facility with a broom in hand for hours on end. that way we'd know when finally there was something to do. :agony-shivering:

I mean that genuinely does suck when you're doing it. The fact that many other people have worse jobs doesn't change the fact that if you spent 10 years pretending to be an important businessman at the business factory you'd feel like a drained, soulless husk too.

We've all got it shitty in this fucked up system. The only ones winning are the rich and even those fuckers manage to be miserable lmao

did you get this posting style from 4chan? this is embarrassing

people never enjoy the process of learning a skillset and using that skillset to overcome a challenge :very-intelligent:

absolutely absurd, incoherent take :downbear:

one of the worst gaming takes ive ever seen

Very often what I’m talking about is a combo attack that stun locks you until death while fighting a boss.

idk, attacks in dark souls 1 are all so telegraphed its hard to understand what you mean. in elden ring sure, maybe theres some stuff like this because the game is designed to be legit hard and expects you to die a lot. but in dark souls 1 there are very few things which can kill you at no fault of your own. everybody winds up their windups before attacking lol

If they learned about the genre, why do they keep doing the same shit in DS 2, 3, Bloodborne and Elden Ring?

I'd say they clearly applied a lot of what they learned in Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring. Dark Souls 2 is the only one that kind of regresses from a game design standpoint and that's because it wasn't made by the main team.

It’s not fun getting one-shotted by something that you don’t know about until after its killed you at least once.

then pay attention so you know about it before it kills you. there are very few true surprises, mostly its stuff that you blunder into if you're not watching out.

There’s nothing interesting about worldbuilding that’s all made up of intentionally vague YoU hAvE tO fIlL iN tHe BlAnKs YoUrSeLf nonsense.

some people like to interpret

There’s nothing noteworthy about weapon upgrades that require you to look up a guide to see what’s worth investing materials in and what’s not.

literally any upgrade is acceptable, it doesnt matter which you choose.

That game is hard as balls and I absolutely love it, precisely because its designed in a such a way that it fixes everything about Dark Souls that sucks.

Yeah, surprisingly when they spent 5 years making 4 other games in the genre in between Dark Souls and Sekiro, they learned a few things about making games in that genre. surprising :shrug-outta-hecks:

And yet the geniuses of the gaming sphere all bashed their head cavities together and decided that SEKIRO was the bad one.

I've literally never heard this opinion once in my life and I've been a fan of the Souls games since 2012. I've always said that Sekiro is obviously the best one

recording of that time the US tried scaring the Viet Cong with scary ghost noises

:fedposting: hueuhahaehuaehheuauaeheau. ok let me add some sound effects to that, this'll surely scare them

edit: this paragraph lmao

An example of the ghost tape being used effectively, was when the 6th Psychological Operations Battalion[4] mixed an authentic tiger roar during a time when North Việt Cộng soldiers were being attacked by tigers near a mountain. The 6th PSYOP got their information from a Việt Cộng defector by the name of Chiêu Hồi. With this information and a new recording, they sent soldiers behind enemy lines up a mountain passage with the task of playing this new ghost tape. After the 6th PSYOP played this recording, reportedly 150 Việt Cộng soldiers decided to leave their position on the mountain in fear of being killed by tigers. That is just one of many examples of the ghost tape being used effectively.[citation needed]

motherfuckers are literally being attacked by real-ass tigers and these fucking nerds think that they left because of a fake tiger and not the real ones

assuming the story is even remotely based in anything that happened, considering it has no sources at all. you'd think if it were totally made up though they'd make up a story that doesnt make them look fucking stupid lol

I for one want to see monarchal communism (does North Korea count as that?)

No, that's literally just propaganda. The DPRK is a democracy and the Kims lead because they are popular because they're essentially a family of "heroes" in their nation. You can argue that is less than ideal, but that is an inherent flaw in democracy, that celebrities are inherently powerful.

the supreme court is unelected dumbass

Yeah people hated Sarkeesian way back in early 2013, firmly before gamergate which technically started I think in 2014 and was only in full swing around 2015-2016.

I mean yeah, in certain contexts. In significant parts of the world they pretty much exclusively have that connotation still, the Nazis didn't really affect it that much. But yeah, if you're in the Americas or Europe cut that shit out obviously lol

My thoughts on Weezer:

:blob-no-thoughts:

Look, I'm allowed to be on my knees with my mouth open and what other people do is none of my business :galaxy-brain:

I don't have to cum in order to consume cum, checkmate :expert-shapiro:

this is a site about finding creative ways to consume cum, idk what you expected tbh
