People think i’m crazy when i tell them that. I think it’s crazy to get ass blasted by ads. The only time i see an ad is when i’m at someone’s home and the tv is running. I’m almost mesmerized by it because of how bad and frequent they appear.
Influencer was always just a slur to me. I had no idea it’s an actual job description or “way of life”. Then i dated this girl that told me on our first date that she’s thinking about to stop buying things from influencers. To me it was like saying: man, maybe i’ll stop sending money to these kenyan princes.
It’s not an american jail
I’m pretty sure they know they will never be able to “fix” the car, so they just hope that people give up.
If i ever wan tto know what Natalie Portman ate for breakfast, i’ll walk into the ocean
So he’s just breaking? What a silly thing to claim. I bet he’s not even regening a lot. When i ride up a mountain until my battery is down to 40% or so and ride down i regenerate around 1% or something. It might even be in the 0.6% or something
Making a good game is hard. Making brainrot garbarge is easy, and people play it just as much. So what is the point? I knew a guy who was cheap as fuck. I didn’t know his girlfriend as well, but people said she was pretty much the same. Once i remember he made fun off someone spending like 60 dollars on a video game and he said he’s not a “gamer”. A few month later we talked about some video games that we liked and i didn’t really include him in that conversation because of what he said before.
He chimed in and said that he’s been playing clash of clans since release. Now i hardly even know what coc is, except mobile pay to win garbage (imo) so without even thinking, i asked if that game is even playable without spending money. He said oh no, he spends around 500 buchs a month. We were all shocked a bit, and he realised how ridiculous that is and immediately threw his girlfriend under the bus saying that she spends at least 1k a month for candy crush.

I always hated ads with a passion. I don’t really know why, even back in the 90’s when these was like 2 commercials per movie or something. It never felt right. So much so that i went out of my way to cut out all the ads in the movies i vcr’d. I ditched TV pretty early, because i just wouldn’t have it.
But here is my question. These days, every youtuber and podcaster is basically a door to door salesman who just wan to sell sometimes quite literally shit to you. How do you continue to like people like that. I have my favourite podcasts, and i never want to hear any of their ads, because as much as i like them, they just spend 10min of their podcast lying to me and trying to sell me shit that they know is garbage. I’m not a parasocial guy, i know they are not my friends, but it still feels soooo dirty.
Yeah when they need yo elect the unelectable fascist, because then he’s 100% gonna win
Some americans are alright
I found it extremely funny that todd said that planets are empty and boring, because irl, planets would be boring and and empty wastelands. Why do you make a boring game then todd? Are you stupid? Is that your dream game? Imagine you can make any videogame that you want and you go: i want it to be set in the middle desert.
Oh so there are gonna be pyramids, bandits and other points of interest?
No the desert is pretty empty and boring.
Oh, sounds pretty good.
I do not understand why Bethesda fans even deal with that shit. They must laugh their asses off every time someone doesn’t refund starfield.
They made americans racist and vote for the racist.
I’ve seen that dune documentary, and they are really not.
I was riding my ebike to my friends workplace and his boss saw it. Quite the overweight fella to put it lightly. He asked about it and was very interested. A week later he sported a 14k ebike, with full mtb gear and everything. That was 2 years ago, he hasn’t touched it once apparently
Scalpers already bought all of them, what a success
Before trump was president i always thought president of the US is kinda like being the king of the Netherlands. More like a symbol that has to decide on some things and talks to people. Learning that they can actually just do whatever they want and americans just shrug is kinda fucking insane and terrifying for all the sane people on this planet.
Politics in video games used to be: metal gear solid.
Politics in video games now is: is that a grill protagonist in my vydia game?
It’s the best. So much so that not having usb c, has become a deciding factor if i buy something or not. It also seems a bit of a quality insurance, even if it’s just a little. But electronics with micro or even mini usb is usually just some cheap shit or that old and they are still selling it.
I once talked to my girlfriend about bra sizes and how much i don’t understand them. Then we both googled bra sizes and how often women wear the wrong size and fit and all. It’s a whole science behind it and it’s quite interesting. Now, 10 years later i still often think: oh no, she wears a bra that doesn’t fit right and probably doesn’t even know it.
