Wait... what? The ape guy was a nazi? But he was spray painting over anti-nazi signs because he hates... commies? But the coffee guy was against spray painting over anti-nazi signs because he... was the not nazi? :psyduck:

Maybe he would have written a better story if he hadn't spilled his coffee, obviously the guy is half asleep.

My phone has a button on the keyboard to switch to the emoji keyboard so it's effortless to spam them. People choose the most bizarrely mundane aspects of stdh to nitpick.

I guess I have something I could put in the "poo poo youc an't believe you just figured out" thread :shrug: But it's the same vein as people who used to send me email forwards with a million exclamation points, after so many you just look insane or stupid

Why would a black dude be angry about a "gently caress Off, Nazis" sign?

Stop for me, it's the claw!



My interpretation: The guy doing the spray painting is covering the signs because he disagrees with the sentiment of 'gently caress off nazis' (because he is one). The guy who wrote the STDH is probably using 'ape' to suggest that spray painter is uneducated or sub-human.

Yeah, this is possibly the only case in the history of time where someone has used the word "ape" as a pejorative and not meant "black". Black Nazis are, as far as I'm aware, few and far between, so "roided up Neanderthal dudebro" is probably what he meant in this one. The person writing STDH about beating up a Nazi seems like the kind of person who would automatically assume a large, muscular man was an uneducated ape

On the other hand, the KKK hates nazis too, so it isn't impossible to conceive of white nationalist antifa stdh.

See, if she was going to be someone's loving dog, that means she must have someone to gently caress her. All they did was whistle (acknowledging her canine appearance). Therefor she was DEATHLY accurate! QEmotherfuckingD!

I'm going for gasps.

I've never played Smash Bros but I'm assuming the "One Million Matches" is just that? Is that even possible?

Also the saddest thing about this is the writer has clearly thought about what the most meaningful thing to him is, the loss of which would warrant the level of revenge in his story. And he's come to the conclusion that it's some video game saves.

Did this kid not have a brokebrains povvo childhood of 100%-ing games, wiping the save, 100%-ing it again, wiping it again, etc?

I have to admit that I was pretty devastated at like 10 when my younger cousin wiped my Pokemon Red save, but I don't think you should have that kind of reaction if you're old enough to vote.

e: not being able to afford a memory card so you leave the Playstation running overnight with the Gex game in for weeks, you're up to like 90% completion when there's a powercut and you lose everything :negative:

I accidentally deleted an RPG maker for PlayStation memory card that had a game I was working on for probably 200 hours.

I was really sad until I realized it probably sucked and the world was doin me a favor.

Was I the only one who would 100% something and then intentionally delete and start over? I think I only kept saves of games which gave you unique unlocks/NG+ style stuff.

Probably not, given this was mentioned two posts up.

As for me, I don't think I ever 100%d anything in one go, but I do replay games - just not usually again immediately after finishing them.
