Arrath posted:I'm weird, i was raised to close the toilet lid as it was the compromise between my parents, where the debate was seat up or down: close the lid so no one is happy. I was giving my some life advice just the other day, and at the top of my list was "Make sure the toilet lid is closed if you are handling any object in the bathroom." I have no sympathy for anyone who drops their toothbrush, phone, nail clippers, etc. in the hopper.

People who smoke in public by bus stops, by entrances to buildings, and etc can get hosed. Love to be engulfed in smoke by a Captain Planet villain wannabe.

The best way to ensure password security is to annoy as many people as possible into writing their password on a sticky note by their computer.

God, I think I would actually pay money for a browser extension that could deal with the eternal loving nagging of sites and cookie handling. Just have it auto-decline all tracking and cookie poo poo unless a site is whitelisted etc. And auto-handle any prompts they spit out. Out of habit I'll generally spin up incognito whenever I check out a couple things/Check a youtube video I dunno if I want in my history, but cookie nagging feels designed to punish you for not allowing them. Really wish GDPR had had a clause where sites weren't allowed to just ask for poo poo unless you needed them for a feature or etc. Just straight up not allowed to even ask for cookies unless someone tried to log in, or something similar. There's also one really loving obnoxious publisher here in Norway that does cross site tracking and loving nags at you to log in if you go to a site they own. A popup going "HEY ARE YOU SUBNAT? YOU SHOULD LOG IN HERE YOU PIECE OF poo poo, YOU CAN USE OUR SHARED ACCOUNT." every couple of days on some sites.

extreme dork peeve: why are guard and ork players so goddam salty all the time? they've constantly gotta be like "did anyone ever notice that mere mortals are more interesting than space marines/orks are the only funny faction who give no fucks" yes everyone noticed. literally everyone noticed. i promise. meanwhile, they're insisting they play for fun while crying their eyes out because their 5000 bucks worth of dudes got blown off the table by me and my niece's space marines, who are purple because that's my favourite colour, they come in the starter, and lmao bolter go brrrrr much as with video games, why is it so inevitable that the people who are "just here for fun" become the worst as soon as they lose? the sweaty netlisting tryhards are way more fun to be around. my lgs is mostly great but 4/4 as soon as someone starts slapping down orks or guard i know they're gonna be upset at losing, and because "ugh i'm here for fun but people keep trying to win" you got owned by a six year old having vastly more fun than you out of starter marines, and you are ostensibly playing the fun faction instead of the grimdark faction, so chill you whiny nerd anywho i'll have the double baconator meal and a large frosty

If they're real Orks they'll just grab whatever toys they have and use those in place of the old minis because just like an Ork in 40k, it works if they believe it works. "That's not a ken doll, that's a tank. This megaman funkopop is a general, because I fuckin said it is!" THAT'S a real Ork player. Play like an Ork.

Schools, and other organisations distributing documents in docx format instead of pdf. Every computer has been able to print to pdf for years now, so it'll display correctly on any device, but people seem to be loving allergic to it or something because they just won't take the two seconds to convert their documents; so they look like absolute garbage. And that's if they even bother to make them not look like garbage to begin with. Sometimes you see misaligned elements and weird page breaks and think "this document isn't displaying correctly" but it turns out the person who made it just left it like that.

In fact, both types of players are trying (and hoping) to win. The difference is that the "play to win" crowd are trying to master the game. They want to play against others who are attempting the same, in order to see who is better at it. The "play for fun" crowd are knowingly making sub-optimal choices because they find them more fun or fulfilling and would prefer to play against others who share their desire to win in interesting, rather than efficient, ways. In theory there are tournaments for the PTW group and casual games for the PFF types. The problem is that there are often fewer opportunities to play than PFF people would like and so they feel compelled to enter tournaments where they encounter mostly PTW types, and the PTW types often want to practice for tournaments in a casual setting and encounter the PFF types. In both cases, the PTW crowd will likely feel that the PFF players are wasting their time and the PFF crowd will feel that the PTW are spoiling their fun.
