My impression is that cuck fetishists are mainly self-loathing, which to be sure incels are too, but they seem a bit too misogynistic to sincerely enjoy seeing a woman receiving sexual pleasure.

Both are self-loathing, but incels extend that hatred to everyone else, too.

I think it's about how, in the 30 plus years there have been Mario games the different brothers have developed slightly distinct personalities. But those are only present in the games that play nothing like classic Mario games.

I'd be concerned if it hadn't been the case for my entire life. Oddly enough though I have a weirdly good memory for music, food, geography, and numbers. Just nothing else whatsoever.

I actually did go to a doctor about memory issues in grad school and she said "nothing's wrong with you but if you drink less coffee and manage your stress level you might see some improvements" to which the only realistic response is "my career is basically a process of turning coffee into stress, lol".


Yeah but mostly that requires me to be clever about a specific type of problems more than retentive in general. I just developed work habits that supplement my chronic inability to remember poo poo.
True for me except I have a weirdly good memory for clothing and textiles, probably because I've been interested in those things since I was a little kid (now I make historical clothing for fun and money). I also have anxiety, which doesn't help. So I write things down and get real good at doing things well at the last minute.

In all seriousness, a brightly colored, pangendered, transracial protagonist sound really cool. I don't buy many games, but I'd probably buy that one.

My favorite thing in all of those awful thread titles has to be the guy who, I'm assuming, moved to Japan to live in the land of milk and honey only to find out that disliking incels knows no border.

Also re: videogamesmen chat, um I hate to break it to you amigo but liking and playing video games has been totally accepted by just about everyone for at least 20 years.

It's nigh impossible to self finance through college unless already come from money; and most student loan setups have some manner of federal subsidy, even if the extent of the subsidy is just "no interest on the principal while you're enrolled"

I've never been sure about that number. How was that survey phrased?

"Do you have a refrigerator?" Yes, yes I do. "Did you purchase your refrigerator?" Nope, it comes with the apartment. It's mine in that I pay rent on it.
