Poll: The Vent Section!

[JaKandDaxter]

Oh, and anyone who makes a boss that can heal itself can go fuck themselves. And their ugly ass **** wife can do so too. As can their ugly dumbass annoying kids as well.

I remember facing the last boss in the South Park N64 game. Who was unstoppable even with cheats enabled. As whenever his health went low, he retreated to his charging station that couldn't be destroyed. What a load of crap that was.

In other news: The world is going to shit.

- Multiculturalism is a meaningless buzzword yet we're expected to defend and uphold it as some fucking utopia where everyone is equal and no prejudice exists..

Vladimir Putin probably said it best when he stated, if you want to livein Russia. You'll speak Russian and obey Russian law. If you want Sharia law, then go somewhere that practices Sharia law. Even if Putin technically does some shady stuff to stay in power.

I remember there was an issue in NYC, where a crowd of people were sitting in a McDonald's all day. And they refused to leave because they do the same thing in their country. Like no, that's private property and someone has a business to run. Go home, rent/buy out a space. Or use one of our many parks during opening hours.

- Let's not forget the macabre clown show that is US politics..

Just to think that last presidental election, we had to pick our poison between Obama and Romney. The former of which ran an administration that played a role in destabilizing the middle east and contributing to the refugee crisis. And now we have a potentially worse cast of candidates. From the shadiness of the Clinton's, to Trump's trolling personality full of unpractical and false promises.

Oh, and the whole anglocentricity of the entire racism debate is sickening. Europe doesn't have your history, America, stop trying to apply your rules to us. Not all white people were slavers, indeed many of them were slaves themselves.

The racial issue is certainly overblown. Groups like the KKK and such are universally condemned in America. Not even Trump wanted any association with a high ranking Klan member.

If the corporate world and politicans truly came up with a strategy to cause seperation between people. And therefore draw attention away from politcs, by using racism , police misconduct, and highlighting other world issues. Then it was certainly an ingenious idea that worked.

- People from the west migrating to ISIS. Fuck 'em. Fuck them with a rusty kitchen knife in their assholes. Throw them off a balcony on the 12th floor. Repeal their citizenship,

Revoking citizenship doesn't sound like a bad idea. Leaving to join ISIS is ultimately treason.

- I'm soon graduating from my studies, yet I'm thinking of applying again for some school just to get to party. I'm not even 24, yet I'm already feeling like my youth is passing me by. In the whole 4 years I've been in the program, I can count the amount of good student party nights I've had with my fingers. And hearing my friends constantly saying how crazy and awesome parties they constantly go to makes me feel cheated.

My social life in college was largely non-existant. And I did experience people glued to their phones, and other people than the one's around them. One kid had his phone go off every minute in class. Like really ? Why are you in college if you can't stop texting your buddies. And what a lousy worker you're going to be with that short of an attention span.

I'm never been a party outgoing type person. And I find it awesome to go straight home to relax. My friends in the past were usually too busy to hang out. So I rather just have a family sooner than later as my main hangout group.

- My country's future is fucked. The economy's still lagging behind the rest of Europe, education and health care are getting cut like Jason Voorhees just found two people fucking and the migrant crisis will have aftereffects that will be fucking up the country for decades to come.

Moving far away to have you're own independence and away from the chaos of this world is quite desirable.

It's something I'll like to do someday. Heck I would like to move to a different neighborhood in my current area. Where people don't block your driveway constantly. Or throw garbage on your property from the local corner stores. What a terrible upbringing someone had to treat the world as their garbage can. And lets not even get to the mess people leave in public restrooms.

- I was supposed to work a project whose deadline was yesterday but I haven't even started and go run my 3,5 km exercise today. I did neither, instead I just sat at home (haven't even left my apartment the whole day), played Darkest Dungeon, watched reviews of old 80's action movies and masturbated. What a worthless fuck I am.

I can only recommend prayer to the Lord for guidance, help, and the strength to get done the things he has appointed you to do.

First off, I thank you for your sympathetic words, it means a lot to me that I can get this off my chest and actually have someone pay attention.

This whole situation really does boil down to something so simple, and seemingly a matter of common sense, that friendships are supposed to be matters of equality. It feels like I've poured so much time and effort into maintaining this relationship, and I've gotten so little out of it in return; that I should always be available to help them out, to listen to their problems, to entertain them, but nuts to me if I want to talk about something that interests me (good lord does the energy drain if I have to keep propping up a conversation purely for their sake). Moreover, I feel almost trapped by a lingering sense of loyalty to this person that makes me apprehensive about bringing these concerns up, so that I end getting quite bitter about the serious imbalance about this situation but ridiculously, feel too guilty to complain.

Feeling invisible hurts no matter how many times you try to make yourself not be.

This sums it up perfectly.

I wouldn't act like a dick towards a subject like this. I know the internet can be dark and some people are heartless but I don't want anyone to feel what I feel and felt in the past because it's shitty. Loneliness is a psychological killer and not many people realise. I'm touched that I could help in some way. Maybe your friend will finally see how you feel about them ignoring you or maybe not. If you are honest open to them, a heart to heart about how you feel, that should help build something back up again. If none of that works, then it may be time to let go of them no matter how hard it can be, it will have to be done. It's not easy, I know.

I actually managed to get in contact with the person in question recently, again seeing another rather token excuse for not replying to me and I decided enough was enough. I sent them a rather detailed message explaining my concerns and honestly, even if they continue to ignore me I just feel an enormous sense of closure. Either they'll continue to ignore me and I'll know that's the end of that, or they'll try some new limp-wristed apologism and I won't care, or they'll mend their ways (which I feel is extremely unlikely). I can accept the natural end of relationships, I just can't accept being silent over what has been a very one-sided affair.

And again, thanks for listening.

Not a problem at all. Also here to lend a helping hand best I can. No matter how crazy if may be.

*takes a scoop of yogurt made from human breast milk*

What? I have a lactation fetish. Big deal. At least it's not a foot fetish. They are the weirdos.

I prefer the scales myself, as evidenced by my totally original profile name.

Unfortunately, my cat just died so now I'm beginning to think the cosmos (or some say Kos....) is out to get me.

Was calling Bingo for my community...some reason or another Pokemon got brought up.

The little exchange went as follows:

Person: You know what Pokemon actually means, right?

Me: Yep, Pocket Monster.

Person: NO! It means demon in your pocket! Pokemon is about summoning demons!

(award silence while I consider my options)

...this person is very religious, and it was their birthday, plus I don't want to make waves in my community so I just let it go with saying it was actually based on cricket fighting, not summoning demons.

But damn, man, it's times like these that make me angry that some people think gamers don't have it rough anymore when shit like this still goes on.

People do tend to go over the top with the hate....Not even sure why they do it because while yes there are games out there that are not for everyone but there are games out there for people who do not like those kinds of games.....The same could be said for Book or TV or Films or Food or sport or heck Religion....Everything has its extremes and everything has its options.....

Yeah, I was actually surprised at how much the death affected me. Still, he had a good long run and was a stubborn old git right to the very end, I only hope I can meet death with as much defiance as he did.

I greatly dislike the idea of demilitarizing the police, America and elsewhere. Raymond Kelly said it best that 9/11 was a failure by the federal government to protect New York City, and that was the second attack on the WTC on top of it. Militarizing the police was done in response to the kind of situations the citizens and politicians of America have asked the police to respond to. Whether that be outgunned by gangsters of the 1930's. Professional bank heists such as the LA North Hollywood shootout in 1997 where cops armed with pistols, were no match for heavily armored criminals with fully automatic rifles. And had to run into a gun store for rifles to end the standout that involved 300 cops. Then there's the active shooter situations that happen across America on a more frequent basis, such as the San Bernardino and Aurora Colorado shootings. One of which turned out to clearly be a terrorist attack.

And to make matters more alarming, the American military is largely disarmed. And soldiers with vast amounts of military training, cannot respond to a lone shooter with mediocre handling of guns on their bases and recruitment centers. Both of which had shooting incidents in recent years that left American troops defenseless and death. So hearing and looking into Bernie Sanders and other who advocate for the demilitarizing of the American police, I have to say how out of touch these people are. America is constantly being threatened by terrorist groups, and Europe is descending into madness with another terrorist manhunt after two major terrorist attacks in the last year. Asides from the London and Madrid bombings of past years.

If the police are ordered to drop their Bearcats and rifles, and the same society does not want the military patrolling our cities either. Or civilian gun law restrictions to be thrown out. America can be entering a very dark time trying to live in its own peaceful bubble, pretending that the world isn't full of evil people waiting for an opportunity to kill people. And if politicians have the balls to blow up someone's else's country. They should have the balls to stand up and keep America safe from their blunders that have destabilized the Middle East.

That's a lot of fear I hear. Question? What about school shootings and "gun incidences" where innocent people die because some person either had a bad day at school or tried to play tough guy? How about when you hear cases of police being a bit "rough" with suspects and, once again, innocent people are harmed or killed? The police are not the military. They are there to protect and serve the people of its local area. Yes, there will be extreme cases of hostile situations and heavy action will be needed but it shouldn't be the case walking down the street just making your way to work and school.

As much as you may think more fire will put out the fire, there are alternatives and better solutions into handling situations. Looking at all sides of the story would help find a more clearer answer. It's just lately I have been seeing only one way of thinking. Eg. Bombing Syria. Miscommunication with allies, lack of open detail and goal on the full mission and an exit strategy that was not brought up in the media for some reason. We bomb them to hell, whatever, but what about the one in charge of the country? Assad. It's a complex mess.

What's happening in Europe at the moment is sadly part of its history of fear, anger, political battle, blood shed and war that's been happening for centuries. Sadly, it's back to the fire with fire argument. We, the West or whoever involved, bombed a few nations, the people flee and where do you think they will go? When the rich wage war its the poor and innocent who die. Then there are the arms deals that seems to always back fire. Saudi and Yemen is one of them. Anyone want to take about that because the news aren't. Back to the point, France and other nations accepted refugee. ISIS does not like that. They rather the "enemy" show a disliking to those people. It's what they want, they are narcissist trying to prove a stupid point that humans are fucked up. Dont get me wrong, some of our worse traits are being broadcasted daily that makes me question myself more and more about what we as humans really want in this world and is love still around, but the more attacks happen, the more they want people to be afraid of living. Afraid of having a life that they feel comfortable with just because a group of egotistical narcissistic children, hated the idea of a more open and free loving world.

So really, to sum up, fear is the main psychology weapon being used. Fear is the outcome of it and the fear is generated by those who have a dangerous thirst for power that just results in innocent people's death.

Is that what it all comes down to? Power?

More people die in car accidents on a given week than gun incidences in any given country, and the death/injury toll between the two are not even a close comparison. Should we start taking away drivers licenses from the general public because some people took their bad day out on the road and made a foolish decision ? Nope, we shouldn't act upon a small minority above holding people accountable for their own actions.

Practically every video out there regarding alleged police brutality involved regular patrol cops. Whether it be Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Rodney King, and so on. Not swat teams with rifles and high grade military equipment. I can assure you also that in NYC, the average civilian (including yourself) can walk down the street and not be able to spot a Swat team in traffic. Because that team does not use marked vehicles for daily patrol. Swat teams are also highly specialized in things like elevator mechanics, electricians, along with extensive tactical training and expensive equipment. And since the previously mentioned costs a lot of tax payer money. They will not be used for something like a basic noise complaint, as that is a bad use of precious emergency resources. And would instead be handled by regular patrol cops instead..

Well I have acknowledge that the destabilizing of the Middle East, was a blunder of American and European political powers in regards to their involvement.

And wanting to take out certain regimes like those in the Middle East. And not others like North Korea and China with arguable greater human rights violations. Highlights that the west would only want to bomb a country that is somewhat of a pushover. And won't be able to effectively retaliate back. Syria and Libya are two great examples. I also just watch a video on YouTube that shows some serious evidence of companies that are building Dubai into the eye candy it is, by using illegal bonded labor. And cheating foreign workers out of a fair salary and forcing them to live in camps with horrible conditions. Won't hear a peep from western leaders about that issue.

What's happening in Europe at the moment is sadly part of its history of fear, anger, political battle, blood shed and war that's been happening for centuries. Sadly, it's back to the fire with fire argument. We, the West or whoever involved, bombed a few nations, the people flee and where do you think they will go? When the rich wage war its the poor and innocent who die. ..........................

Is that what it all comes down to? Power?

Well I haven't advocated for no refugees, and I actually got into a brief disagreement with a friend about the refugee situation. After highlighting that America has always had a process for immigrants and refugees to apply for citizenship. Even though I'm not too crazy about the influx of thousands of refugees, to countries that already have internal struggles for the people already living there. And its quite a shame that muslim countries are uninterested in helping their fellow muslims out.

What I am mainly arguing for, is for the police and military to be armed and trusted to handle situations that the general public will not be able to deal with. Paris was won back by a military like response, not by waving hands asking an enemy bent on destruction to walk away. Nations have historically after all, had military forces because people like taking what doesn't belong to them. It's an evil flaw present throughout human history that will never go away. And its the responsibility of our governments, to provide a means to effectively respond to acts that disrupt and threaten public safety and order. More so when those same governments had no problem blowing up someone else's country up. Only to leave the civilian population to suffer while they sit behind heavily guarded secure areas. With the kind of weapons they have already taken away from a large chunk of American soldiers stationed in America. And now a select few like Bernie Sanders, are looking to do the same for the police.

Every had moments at work where you bust your butt day in and day out doing everything correctly and then one day you make a tiny "mistake", they then make an example of you but NOOOOOOOOO when others are lazy as fuck and create more mess for me to clean up, no one batters an eyelid?

And this mistake you may be wondering was one thing. A customer was waiting while I had to do multiple things with lack of fellow staff around. A mystery shopper. They are fun!!

Just a sign of bad management. They become too buddy with certain people, or don't have it in them to tell said person what to do.

When I worked in a gym, the morning crew got the most backlash from our manager to keep the gym clean and what not. But the afternoon crew, had a particular person who would get away with being a slacker. And the manager wouldn't tell him otherwise.

So the manager ended up just picking on the people who they know will listen and do said job. Its a shame, but your best off not taking such instances personal. Just will wreck with your piece of mind. And they ultimately will do that to a worker of a similar work ethic as you. That same manager may also still have some helpful advice from time to time, because you choose to hear them out.

Every had moments at work where you bust your butt day in and day out doing everything correctly and then one day you make a tiny "mistake", they then make an example of you but NOOOOOOOOO when others are lazy as fuck and create more mess for me to clean up, no one batters an eyelid?

And this mistake you may be wondering was one thing. A customer was waiting while I had to do multiple things with lack of fellow staff around. A mystery shopper. They are fun!!

I've learnt to leave it alone. As much I would try to fight in the past, I know the outcome and ends up with me coming up with excuses that is actually the truth. So I just shut up, take useful notes and get on with the job. I take every moment as a learning experience really. Good and bad. Especially the bad.

I feel I got ripped off on Shadow of Mordor for PS3. There's a 10 second loading time for everything. Damn near unplayable.

Yea I personally read about the technical issues with the PS3 version. So I decided to hold off purchasing SoM until after I got a PS4.

Still on my list of games to get around to playing. Let it be known now to check reviews on games that have next gen ports, to see if the last gen versions are worth it.

It's a shame, I can tell the game's fun in theory. But whatever enjoyment I get from it is always in spite of itself.
