Sheesh, i've watched too much Jimquisition ?

Hyper capitalism and communism essentially do the same damage and follow the same operative parallels. Centralisation, is the key factor both share, and that's the root of all problems. In a centralised system you cannot have proper mobility, be it politics, economy, entertainment or education, and the weight of it all eventually builds up to the point of collapsing under it's own weight.

Oh don't even get me started on idiot drivers. I'm from St. Louis, now we may not be the worst but damn do these idiots suck. One thing that pisses me off is that we don't even have that bad of a winter anymore; yet during the few scattered days of snow we do get these morons have forgotten everything they learned the year before. Last year I honestly saw a 7 car pile-up on the interstate after a light dusting, not even any real accumulation.

All of you need to come live in Italy a while if you think YOUR drivers are bad. Taxi drivers in particular seem like they got their license from Carmageddon here. You're likely to lose a few years of life if you get one of the rowdier taxi drivers in Rome for your ride...

I can't begin to describe how absurdly idiotic drivers here are. The only ones who drive halfway decently are the American soldiers stationed in military installations across Italy - at least THEY won't accelerate suddenly if they see me on a pedestrian crossing and then have the gall to blame ME for nearly hitting me because "I was too slow in getting out of the way". Gah, my blood pressure spikes just thinking about it...

Normies trying to act like they know nerd culture so well and they're disappointed in "how movies portray superheroes, honestly in the comics they were so much cooler. especially thanos and tony. like really."

Be specific. Make a point. Boring? How? Why? What was wrong with them?

You can't just blab out some random shit so matter-of-factly and expect me to eat it up.

"Tony is totally different in the comics honestly, he's way deeper and interesting."

?!!??!!??!!?!?

I will SLAY you motherfucker.

Edit: Oh, they liked Captain Marvel. K.

Oh god so much of this. I'd say the only thing worse than people not explaining shit and spouting asinine bullshit are the elitist types who add in pseudo intellectual "justifications" for their claims while blatantly, unknowingly showcasing to everybody else that they don't in fact understand what they're talking about in the first place, or have hugely misunderstood the subject in hand.

This shit is especially rampant in anime/manga community. If i had a dollar for every fucking moron i came across that vehemently, almost religiously praised Hunter X Hunter for all the wrong reasons or how One Piece is a brilliant example of shonen storytelling, or how Saitama is literally invincible, i'd have quite a lot of money. And you give them one little trend of hating a show, and they'll eat that shit up and come up with even more asinine points. Some moron youtube "reviewer" says some stupid shit and all of a sudden it's gospel.

Critical thinking is the enemy of these retards, explaining themselves and making any sense at the same time will fry their little heads.

In the same breath that he asked why Captain America's shield caused a shockwave when Thor hit it he said he liked Black Panther and that he'd seen it twice. He's super into the older comics but he went off about Vibranium and didn't even pay attention to the explanations people gave IN Black Panther(another movie he liked of course) about how it works and that it can absorb and repel kinetic energy.

This is so irritating. He also asserted that Thor's hammer was made from some "cosmic out of world shit" but he really liked the comics and hated the movies and in both they explain the origins of the hammer, and in Infinity War they go there and make a new weapon. Like.... come on man. This is mainstream shit now.

I don't wanna sound like a gatekeep, or an elitist, you can like what you like, watch what you like, do what you like, my issue is when people make assertions and statements that are clearly baseless to act like they're smart. Misinformation pisses me right the fuck off, especially outright lying and dancing around each subject you're beat on with clear references down to the comic strip or movie scene.

You can't go up to a physicist and tell them e is not = mc^2 because they'll consider displacing your mass down a 5th story height at terminal velocity. You don't go up to someone way into comics and tell them clearly wrong shit just because you want to act like something you're not, it's not impressive and I hope people don't fall for this idiot's rambling because it'd be a shame for some girl to actually fall for a complete moron like this.

I don't know Dark Souls lore so unless I'm joking I don't go around arguing with Dark Souls fans about what a character did or something like that, it's stupid, it's irritating. Ugh.

I feel once again like this goes in the Rant thread but whatever I think they serve the same purpose.

Right? Panther turned an entire car around with his body, that's okay. Cap's shield can tank Thor? Unacceptable! This reminds me of people who say Naruto has moon level feat because he half-assedly tanked moon cutting attack from Toneri which very clearly falls into medium country level feat if one takes the time to understand it and take everything into account for proper power scaling. Meanwhile Piccolo's moon vaporising feat in early DBZ is an "outlier" and that Sasuke can take on Nappa? Fuck off? Even more retarded, thinking anyone in Narutoverse would stand a chance against the Quincies, post Arrancar arc Captains or Vasto Lorde Ichigo who's an actual continent buster by feats and scaling. To put this in perspective, these are the equivalent of putting Black Panther against DCEU Superman. The sheer retardation in these people makes you wanna laugh out loud and slap them with flip flops at the same time.

I know this isn't entirely comic stuff but you gotta read my username lmao. Bottom line, lots of stupids out there that don't understand the very subject they choose to babble about.

Yeah no I gotcha. There's no way to really argue with someone that far gone, when they ignore the rules of the universe they're defending so they can put down another. They meta-argue like saying Early DBZ scaling was fucked so they can go and say Naruto can just avoid a god slash. No no no, none of that. I don't wanna get too deep into it because I get PTSD from remembering working on the Naruto Overhaul/Uchiha Clan and just.. *shudder* no no thank you. I can hear the screeching now, it's very painful.

Last bit on this guy before he yeeted himself out of my face. Guy was like "well Omega Red has vibranium tentacle why didn't Wolverine cause a shockwave?" bitch those claws are super thin for slicing not thicc for smashing, a tentacle isn't a shield meant to displace impact so they wouldn't cause a shockwave, and Vibranium's been around for 50 years and always changing so comparing that comic to the movies is moot to begin, the rules are different, knowledge is different. Meta-arguing is trash. Like, bruh... you can't love something and not know anything about it. It's unsightly.

And on top of that, Wolverine's claws are made of Adamantium so they wouldn't displace shock like Vibranium in the first place, and like you said they're supposed to cut things not tank them. I don't have a lot of comic knowledge but this kind of shit is not hard to figure out. And LOL at people saying early DBZ scaling is fucked when Naruto was making thousands of clones of himself without the fundamental principle of shadow clones taking any effect which was established at the beginning of the show, that cloning divides the caster's power by half. It makes literally no sense from a mathematical standpoint for him to even stay alive after creating so many clones or the fact that all of his clones shared the exact same level of power. And don't even get me started on the Izanami/Izanagi bullshit.

Literal braindeads.

Two things on this:

1) In all fairness, Nappa is an arrogant idiot and almost got done in by Krillin's Kienzan, which has armor piercing capabilities (something Sasuke's Chidori has in common with it, at least). If Vegeta hadn't warned Nappa to dodge it, baldy would've become half the man he used to be right there and then. So saying Sasuke can take Nappa isn't wrong per se, it's just people use all the wrong reason to claim that.

2) Bleach characters rely on their opponents being extreme morons. Their powers, while vast, are situational as hell and basically depend on their opponents having all the attention span of a gnat, with the exception of Aizen's which is just broken. And he's also just about the only one who uses his brain when fighting, the others usually get caught off guard every. Single. Time. It's like they are incapable of learning and adapting on the fly. The only reason these things balance out is because both sides are about equally brain-damaged. >_>

The above are just my opinion, but I feel rather strongly about both, tbh, so I guess they fit there.

Interesting. Let's see here:

1) That is, yes a character flaw. But this idea still relies on the assumption that Kienzan and Chidori are on the same calibre. Krillin's Ki output is vastly above anything in Narutoverse at this point in Z, and as we know that Ki stacks up linearly unlike Chakra it is safe to say that Chidori won't do much damage on someone as durable as Nappa. Indra'a Arrow is far better but even then, Nappa is way too fast to let that hit him and i doubt he would just die from it even if he does get hit considering he took Kaioken Goku's punches and didn't explode into a mist of blood.

2) Lmao i can see that, but the hax alone in Bleachverse is way too much for Chakra bombs and ash rods. You could make a case for Sajin being an utter fool in the field but someone like Kyoraku? That guy will stab you the moment you blink. Or Askin who will just poison you. I don't believe they're anywhere near as stupid as you're imagining for some reason i'm unaware of because Bleach fights are very drop-guardy and Reiatsu-levelled compared to Naruto where fights are more Prep-n-spam focused.

Hey that's fine, different perspectives are good if they're well explained and have reasonable justifications behind them.

Capitalism is just a wealth generation method while Socialism is a way of life/governance. It would be more accurate to say that a representative democracy which doesn't over-regulate business ventures is one of the best means of holding Socialism in check.

Of course, the unchecked hyper capitalism (as in Capitalism as a way of life which is as much of a mistake as living by the sword)goes with whatever generates wealth in the short term even if it hamstrings hyper-capitalists/worshippers of Mammon in the future.

Italy had actual fascists and I can tell you this: for all Mussolini was ruthless, he actually DID have the citizens' wellbeing in mind, or he wouldn't have improved public transport and education, boosted healthcare and drained the numerous swamps across Italy to drive out the malaria-carrying Anopheles mosquito.

Meanwhile the Chinese government ruthlessly starves its people and lets them die of illness.

Let that sink in: somehow, China makes *actual fascists* look like the good guys. Dear God...

Arrogance. Arrogant people can't accept the remote possibility of being wrong, thus often leading to them fucking up and still assuming they did everything right. I have several of those jackasses at work, which results most of the time, with them messing up their assigned task and me having to clean up their mess. Atleast they appear to possess an affinity for eating ass apparently, as boss still wont kick them out, despite their obvious stupidity.

Maybe it's irrational, but certain things make me tick internally and can occasionally send me into immediate anger, even if I don't let it show on the outside.

- People audibly chewing
- People audibly gulping drink (moreso even than chewing)

- People interrupting me when I'm singing to myself (Come on - you can see that I'm in a positive headspace. Piss off already.)

- People who say "...murdered to death". I get that some people say it ironically, but other.... genuinely don't, and you can tell.

Is this unfair?

The first two... It depends how bad your reaction is, if its as bad as I think it may be then you may have un-diagnosed Misophonia, I was eventually given the name for it by Doc's a few years ago now but as I say, it may depend on your reaction, its relatively normal for those sorts of things to cause mild irritation from time to time with most people, however, if you react like me, its probably Misophonia.

Fair warning, if you're as appalled by the disturbing fettish/trend of infantilism known as ASMR (I always read that as ass to mouth) you will probably be safe but just in case, avoid any links, vids or audio that even mentions the word "Mukbang" like the black death or you will go on a killing spree the likes of which society has never known.
