  • Street fighter II

    growing up with line ups of kids playing sfii in the arcades, leaving your quarters on the cab in a line to figure out who’s next, and when someone finally beat that Asian kid (who knew every move you’d make and always picked chun li) who played for free all day beating everyone else was finally beaten and the cheers and the whooping and sometimes even the real fist fights over it.

    Street fighter ii was an absolute phenomenal moment in gaming










  • OMG! I’m so relieved that I’m not the only one. Some of the replies I’ve received in other conversations when I respond out of context have been so demeaning as if I’m making up excuses.

    Replying from the inbox is terrible.

    Thank you for validating my experience, although it also sucks for you. I appreciate you commenting

    The actual baby boomers were the weak men created by the good times.

    The strong men created by hard times were their parents who fought in wwi and wwii

    My generation (millennial/gen x) is also weak.

    My children’s generation, unfortunately, might be the ones who grow to be strong, if we don’t turn around this disaster


  • It’s super frustrating, I would like to know why someone said “good luck with your wish then” before I respond to them, but I can’t find the post in the thread lol

    I’d feel bad just responding randomly, and sometimes I get it wrong and respond out of context to people, which must be super frustrating for them.

    It doesn’t help that most things I comment get a ton of replies, I understand why they do (a lot of people here disagree with me and want to tell me how horrible and stupid I am)

    Where the fuck are you hearing that? Every conversation I have with my conservative friends revolves around how much immigration is reasonably doable and what number is too much strain on the system.

    There’s never a racist undertone to the conversation. Immigrants can come from Africa, or Mexico, or Poland. No one I know gives a shit about who they are, just what the policy around it is
