  • I had a bit of a rant about this a while back when I was playing Splatoon with friends.

    The crux of the argument is this "if we stop trying to look at Splatoon as a good game and instead look at it as an entertaining game, the issues we run into make sense. The bugs glitches and bad balancing issues don't matter as much from an entertainment standpoint. You get in you play and you're entertained. Even if the match drops you can get back in an be entertained. It doesn't mean it's a good game, but it is entertaining."

    My friend's and I are now freaking out about my prophetic words.

  • Work from home for me. 4 day work week would be nice, but nothing beats downtime during work at home. Playing a video game doing some chores or even a quick shower all things that get looked at strangely in an office but at home

    "hey I'm just waiting for this thing, lemme hit the shower right quick to refresh myself" " Sounds good"

    10 minutes later something else to do or someone to help out.

    Plus. I'm not the biggest fan of wearing clothes. Those are optional at home.

  • I'm really glad as well.

    One, I didn't allow myself to just be an argumentative commenter which is a struggle some days.

    Two, it was great getting to discuss things with people. Different experiences different walks of life. I'm almost envious of some of what I learned wanting to feel it for myself y'know?

  • I've had similar experiences with my hobbies. It sucks feeling like the last thing has defeated you but that's what your car wants you to think. It wants you to give in give up let the shops handle it for you and spend money but nah dude!

    You put that evil plan to rest!

    Ok seriousness, You did the work and you accomplished a lot! Now you're getting the final task dealt with an teaching that car whose boss. Be proud of yourself. It doesn't matter how long the project took or what you had to do to finish it, it matters that you did what needed to be done and didn't give up.

  • Mmm I see I see. I don't personally agree but I agree when looking at it from your perspective.

    I did a bit of a dive for it in a different comment but for me I do not share that love for sacred thing that you do which generated some interesting discussion. All around I'd say discussion mission was successful

  • This is also true and a really valid perspective to consider.

    I feel like the answer OP was trying to go for was "they both love the thing so much they couldn't do it" but that's a really narrow-minded view of human experiences. I'm actually wondering how many people are like me and believe in God but feel no more love for God than they do any random things in life.

  • Oh. So you're saying something shocking to elicit a specific answer so that you can have your All star ™️ response that "wins the argument"?

    Well whenever you decide to discuss things without "winning" I wrote up how I feel regarding the two situations here https://lemmy.world/comment/3124935 and would love to see howyour experience is similar or different.

  • See comments like this leave people concerned. What are you attempting to say with this?

    Are you questioning why I would have issues eating an animal I love after it has been murdered and cooked? Or is this some edgy bullshit argument to try to prove that you're right?

  • This is why I'm bringing up Indian culture where the cow worship is pretty wellknown.

    For them, again, cows are sacred beasts. Basically a living deity so whether you agree or not about the deity or existence of Gods you can't disagree that cows exist.

    So from there I'm attempting to conceptualize how Indians feel towards Cows (worship of deity) and see if it's similar to how I feel about my pet dog.

    At least that's what I took from the post.

  • Serving my dog? No.

    Serving a farm raised dog intended for consumption like a pig or cow? Yeah I'd try it.

    My personal oddities aside, I still disagree. I don't think worshipping a holy entity is at all the same as loving your pet. Maybe it is for you, but I know I don't feel commonality between what I feel for my pet dog and what I feel for God.

    For example, I give my pet treats and teach him to do tricks. My relationship with God is one of respect and wondering. Would you say that's similar or different?

  • Why would these things be equal?

    In India, cows are revered as living deities. I know I don't worship my dog. While both mindsets lead to a revulsion at the idea of eating said meat, I don't think we're talking about the same emotions at all.

  • I think it depends on shopper and circumstance.

    For some shoppers the cheaper item works. For others wanted a better qualiy item isn't unrealistic, and both are offered on the shelves.

    Add to it, you may want a meh quality hammer when you're just doing work that would really wreck a nicer one
