  • Bi, poly, married. 0 tolerance. If you're needing this much trust, then there is no way I could be with someone who doesn't trust reality. I don't have time, the mental capacity, or desire to be with someone who probably should be in a special needs group.

    The amount of hand holding and coddling these people need to not throw a fit is crazy. You won't even get the crazy sex you'd expect from someone that deranged. 2 pumps and they're going to think they're champions. No after care, nothing but doggy, they won't even do the dishes.

    They're nothing but dead weight in a relationship. A family is a multiple person event. You expect someone who can't see past their nose to be good in that environment?

    Your best case scenario with dating conservatives is basically with the rapist Brock Turner. He's at least rich you can mooch off of before...the obvious happens.

  • Lol yeah, I've worked in a dealership. I was fine with it till my foreman got fired because he took all the blame from customers instead of staff.

    Anyways when they were interviewing his replacement I started looking for a new job. I got into it with him because he wouldn't even listen to anyone talk about pay raises.

  • I have Ford hybrid manuals. It won't do you much good on the cost of the tools to work on them. Best advice on hybrids is to learn how to disconnect your battery before servicing your vehicle.

    If you can afford the 3k tool then it is only 1k per year :D

  • Can you elaborate on what you mean psych problems when you don't trust your brain?

    I have memory issues and so when I'm doing something more complex than muscle memory I write it down. So I don't trust myself on specific memory tasks, like phone numbers.

  • You really haven't experienced this have you. I usually recommend the German version of funny games because Americans don't recognize the actors, and it's easier to just put the movie as "just people" in their heads. The whole movie is about using social expectations in order to torture and kill a family.

    If you get up and leave when people do this, you're probably going to become unfavorable and not invited back.

    If you just rip out the role playing to address every small thing people will just stop role playing, and become murderhobos anyways.

    It's good to go over the game in a kind of want/will/won't list. Because sometimes in order to get what you want out of a game you need to go through things you're only willing to do. To me, it seems like you've been saying this whole time "if you don't do what you WANT, then quit" which would explain why you've "barely ever been a player."

    You've been screaming, in not direct ways, a lack of social experience with things of this nature. I wish you the best of luck. And as a recommendation, try not to get upset at a nineteen word meme that you haven't experienced. There is a good reason why the most comments in this, besides you, have been people telling you that you are wrong.

    Unless you explain to me why you're so passionate about this, I will not care to respond. I hope you have a lot of fun in the games you play and I hope you get the best out of them. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday, I'm going to go play a game where the DM wants me to back stab the party.

  • If it got to the point that the party was willing to twist the narrative to kill the entire campaign, they should have already left.

    Then why are you so passionate about this if you don't have experience? I have experience both as a player when another player goes all murder hobo, and a GM when people have gone full murder hobo. It isn't fun, there was always talk before hand and the GM tries to not break flow of game. I'm not "defense of vindictive DMing" I've just been in plenty of complex situations similar to A NINETEEN WORD MEME that you are refusing to understand that people with experience are laughing at, not because "being mean is good" but people trying to make the best of a shit situation they've been PUT in.

    It's a perfect example of what I have been talking about.

    DM explains expectations
    Player ignores everything
    DM does in game thing to enforce expectations

    My experience is definitely people wanting to play/GM with friends and I haven't ever directly paid/been pain for sessions. So when I say job I'm definitely implying a soul crushing 9-5 and not a session between friends. It's a group activity, everyone should be trying. If it is solely the DM's job to keep the peace, it is a failing game.

  • Yes, the party all snapped at the same time and started murder hoboing and it definitely wasn't talked about before hand by the party or the dm.

    Listen, it sounds like you've been traumatized by some passive aggressive dm. I cannot think of a reason you're so passionate about this.

    It really feels like you'd be a part of the "doms don't need aftercare" crowd too.

    One of the closer examples of this actually happening is a party was underneath an alchemist shop in the sewers which I said smelled of sulphur. The newest person to the party their first move down there was fireball. I literally said "are you sure?" While giving him the look. Anyways most people made their dex saves and it was a lesson in fuck around find out. They became a great player and meshed really well with the game. But saying something and doing something are two different things. I told them before this event I will reward them for being smart and punish for not being observant. You need this ability to do things like this in game in order to smoothly, without breaking the flow, push the players in the right direction.

    You don't have to be in that style of game, you also have the ability to ask the DM how they want to run the game.

    There are games out there for any type of player and dm. If you think it's the dm's JOB to make you happy then I do not want to be a part of any game you're in. This is a group game.

  • When I'm a DM I reward people being clever or following through with hints I give them. I like having those little puzzles in the middle of a game.

    If I am running a game where I kill a party it's because they didn't listen to anything and were basically cutting anything that I wanted to do out.

    I don't want to be in a dungeon crawler. Video games tend to do those better.

    I don't want to run a dungeon crawler. I could just set up a module for people to do.

    I tell players before hand what I expect of a player. If they like it they play, if they don't I'll find another. It's that simple.

    I expect an amount of bullshittery, that can be fun. But I never enjoyed participating in a murder hobo session. If my game starts out fun, then goes murder hobo direction, I'll get my fun.

    "Don't do x,y,z."
    Players do x,y,z
    Party dies

    I don't know what y'all expected.

  • America smuggled flashdrives of NCIS (the show) into North Korea. They used the show as propaganda.

    A lot of left leaning people will call cop shows COPaganda.

    Propaganda is a lot less scary when you learn that sesame street is also propaganda. They preach unAmerican things like "be nice" and "care for others".

    When people talk about propaganda they generally mean lying to an audience to motivate people for political power.

    I think you're focusing too much on the "propaganda" part and not the "hate speech" part.

  • I have a 20yo car with a bad torque converter that I'm dragging my feet in replacing.

    It shakes at stops and to get it to stop shaking I shift it to neutral. Your car is in the shop so you can't really make that test.

    Fuel sensors can cause some funky things though. Give fuel when it shouldn't and not give when it should. It will cause misfires that way.

    Driving with faulty parts will cause other systems to fail. It's usually better to replace things sooner rather than later.

  • Internet websites aren't the government.

    Hate speech is bad for business. It only makes sense for corporations to ban hate speech.

    You can make a nazi website, for nazis, by nazis. Those already exist.

    I see one chud and I'll block them. If the site is nothing but chuds I won't use it.

    If a website sucks, use a different one. Your attention is monetized, and if you want to say nazis are good to be around then give them space to exist. If not then do something about it. The website owners are not restricted by freedom of speech.

    I personally feel like large enough public forms should be held to a higher standard, and if people said half the things they do online irl they'd get beaten and thrown in jail.

  • To be fair, I've told someone spark plugs on a diesel after I changed a few on gas cars.

    They have glow plugs. I knew what I was saying, but it was a long day.

    They go in the boom holes and help with said booms. Don't look at me because I'm not an English major. When I order parts I point to the catalog and grunt like a caveman, because my brain is smarter than my mouth.

  • My oil is hard and strong. Like all the hardened steel inside the fluid. We've built up years of trust and bonds. You don't think the gear oil would do me like that. It's like marriage, for life right?

  • My assumption is that you're talking about the washable ones. They do last a bit longer and they do save money in the long term because you don't have to buy as many. But there is still wear and tear happening every time you wash it.

    My grubby little raccoon hands have worn out my keyboard caps. I don't need to see what the letter is, and I've had my keyboard for so long it is a razer that isn't backlit.

    Air filter holes are measured in microns. I don't know the time frame, but it will happen that it will let dirt through the air holes that it really shouldn't.

    K&N is a fairly well quality controlled product. Nothing is forever.

  • No, I don't have experience working on Teslas, you didn't address my concerns though. My concern is with ANY moving part. I don't need to be an Tesla certified engineer to tell you fluids that keeps things moving, cool, clean need to be changed at some point in time.

    If that amount is what's normal for them than then that's fine, that's why I said to check your owners manual.

    If the mileage is that low for your mx-5 then that's probably warranty if your rear diff does need rebuilt. So that is good news.
