A legally unbalanced, constitutionalized and corporatized way of expressing love.

I believe you can love another without marriage but, we had to make legal bindings and stuff because people took that too far.

The general consensus I’ve gathered is that they’re in the millions. It makes sense because they were practically everywhere on every front. They’re clones, they’re designed for that purpose.

…Your point?

Not until they’re 14, sharp.

As far as phones go, probably 14 too.

But I’m not going to get them high fancy shit like IPhones. It’s going to be a basic dumbphone.

this sounds like just throwing your money away. I think it definitely takes the cake for weird/interesting habits.

We all throw money away, everyday. It is a matter of how much money we throw away and whether or not it served a positive purpose or gives us buyer’s remorse. I think it is twice as wasteful to not only throw your money away but never even once use the thing you’ve thrown money away for. I don’t force myself to play games or I’m never enjoying it as it was meant to be.

I agree, it costs nothing to not delete them, and if they ever added a framework later on for reselling or trading, you’re just out money.

I just simply do not want them in my library as listed. Is that really too much to ask for? People are allowed to have preferences. The whole point isn’t to negate the loss of money, it is simply accepting it as a loss and doing what personally feels right in how to go about dealing with that acceptance.

I don’t think we’ll ever see such a system without publishers and even developers crying about lost profits, least in the US.

Not to mention if you wrote a review for any of the games, I’m expect deleting the game from your library unmarks the game as you owning it, which means that your review no longer contributes to the game’s rating.

To date, out of the 622 games in my library, 400 of them have had reviews written for them.

It didn’t help the argument any when the movie Fellowship of the Ring blatantly displayed wings on that balrog.

At that point, just accept they have wings and rest the argument.

The wings thing still gets me.

Okay, so suppose the Balrogs didn’t have wings. Then why in the fucking film of Fellowship of the Ring, did they GIVE IT FUCKING WINGS OUT IN THE FUCKING OPEN?!

From what I understand, it was supposed to be some wing-like description to make it seem like it did have wings but also imply it didn’t have wings. But that only confused things further. Man, I love Tolkien, but if you didn’t mean to add wings to a balrog or whatever, you shouldn’t have even brought the idea of wings to the table.

The EU vs Canon of Star Wars.

There are a lot of aspects I like from the EU, but I’m of the minority who feels the EU really did take things to 11 and it was out of control. Like, Sidious and Luke Skywalker practically became godlike with their abilities of the force that it was ridiculous to take seriously. There are other things that the EU has ran wild with and in a sense, I can understand why George Lucas and Disney have spent a few years trying to clamp down on things and be choosy as to what they determine is canon.

I still want them to canonize Exar Kun though, that guy was awesome.

There’s Patient Gamer, so we’ll call you Patient Reader. Where, you don’t let the tide of FOMO dictate what you should read and when.

Um, no.

I don’t like this normalization where people buy so many games and complain about the backlog of their library. I was one of those people for a while and I hated it. Games are meant to be played, not collected.

If Valve ever got the balls to, they’d have a system where you can recycle/resell games to people in the community. They allow people in the EU to resell their games but not in the US. Because reasons.

Probably one of the most discomforting and dreadful short stories and the game based on it that I’ve ever seen. There was even a comic series that showed the graphical details.

I don’t like being forced to update. If my system is running fine, has been running fine and will run fine by my use, I don’t see a need to update.

My ex-roommate once said that he didn’t know anybody who deleted their Steam games from their library than I did.

I’m just one of those people who is able to discard something (and at times, someone) when they just aren’t a benefit to me. I’m very anti-hoarder.

Neuromancer’s ‘Send Me an Angel’ over the original.

Sully Erna was a covid denier. Godsmack’s music appealed to wanna-be tough guy, divorced dad kind of rock music. Kind of gone the way of FFDP a bit.

Supposedly they released their ‘last’ album and they announced it to an audience that you could say, equaled to that of a retirement home.

I used to like their music, I thought for a while that Sully was cool because he was wiccan and stuff. But, I think he had fallen by the wayside over the years.

Do you know a word of what you’re about to type at all before asking questions?

Usually I don’t care about “correct” language at all

and

I never would “correct” a person IRL about this

Those are your answers.
