Maybe more Stephen King than Christopher Nolan: “Sometimes, dead is better”

I ride or die with Charizard and Feraligatr, but I tend to go Grass in every other generation (Turtwig>Bulbasaur, I’m prepared to die on that hill). They tend to have trickier move pools and some really common weaknesses, so they became the closest to Hard Mode I could find until the endgame

Love your child! We’re all entitled to our espresso-strong hot takes about the Pokemon series. I love (parts of) Gen 5! I think Ice types should resist Water moves! On that note, I strongly agree that Gen 3 has too much water and that should have been addressed in the remake! 

Bubbles is the water type! Buttercup, a flower, is the grass type! Blossom...is cool too!

It’s probably personal taste really. It a matter of degrees, but think you’re right that popularity of a starter line is affected by opinions of all three (well, two. I feel like a bad teenage phase isn’t as much of a dealbreaker). But if you look at each mon individually you can appreciate the Tepigs or the Piplups wh…

That’s got more to do with how loathed Quiladin and Chesnaught are, Chespin has a great design (that they’re obviously taking another run at with the very similar Scorbuny, hopefully they get the evolutions right this time around)

I disagree, the best part is that the lie Cohen was convicted of telling, the cornerstone of the “scumbag lying lawyer” line of attack from the GOP, was “Donald Trump did not commit any crimes” 

We’ve had a grass monkey, but we’ve never had a good grass monkey

You chose to call their concerns “trivial,” not me. And you chose to call them “dorks” and “crying.” If you care enough about an issue to talk about it, and then demean the people on the other side of the debate in the same breath for considering the issue worthy of talking about, that makes you a hypocrite

I had a feeling, but it’s always fun to take them at their word and then watch them squirm and pivot (and if they’re not trolls I usually get a decent conversation with someone I probably wouldn’t otherwise speak with out of it). Hopefully there’s some entertainment value for others scrolling all the way down the…

Why put your opinion out there at all for something you don’t care about? Don’t put this on other people for continuing a conversation about something they do profess to care about that you chose to start, that’s why there’s a reply button.

This is the stupidest god damned controversy ever...If you’re offended by this shit, you’re a dork and need to get a life.

This is the second time you’ve responded to me directly about something you claim you do not care about. It’s not about time and energy, it’s about time and energy you could spend doing literally anything that you do claim to care about

If it’s so trivial, why is it worth your time to comment at all? Why even click the article in the first place?

You’re offended by the idea of someone else being offended, if they’re “dorks that need to get a life” already what does trying to insert yourself to that perceived controversy make you?

If it was Donnie, I hope Gaetz is next to get a subpoena 

Oh look, a corporation decided making sure that a role in the community and a measure of financial security and independence is provided for people with disabilities wasn’t profitable anymore. But as long as the shareholders are happy it’s all fine

It’s that kind of “I would like to spend my money and time on something I enjoy” entitlement that really drags the community down. What about the silent majority of players who just want to be told that they’re having fun and if they aren’t feeling it they should buy some armor cosmetics?

This is the second time I’ve made this point on kinja today, but Gita Jackson wrote a thing that said “the only way to win is to not play.” I think more people are realizing that and staying out of user comment sections, and their absence makes the trolls seem that much louder

If I start explaining why it matters, I know I’ve already ceded to the notion that it might not. The only winning move, it seems, is not to play.
