    Correction: someone did a study at MIT about aluminum helmets, not tin foil hats. The important distinction being aluminum vs. tin.

    Word to the wise: Only buy tin for your protective day wear, as it hasn’t been proven ineffective at blocking radio waves by MIT, unlike aluminum. Stay safe out there!

    Quick addendum: This is a bit. Don’t come after me, Big Aluminum.







  • To be fair, monster hunter goes buck fucking wild with calamities though.

    “Hey hunter, rumor has it, your next target is either the devil sent to destroy the world, or possibly the mother of all creation. Here’s some whetstones!”

    “Sup hunter. Got a volcano on our hands. Do us a favor and kill it, would you? Don’t forget your lucky cape.”

    “Oh hey! Hope you don’t mind a little wind, cause your next quest is to kill the god of hurricanes! Best to take a quick dip in the sauna before you go.”

    “Hunter, how’s it going? I know this week’s been pretty crazy with the rogue fighter jet and the giant mech suit you killed already, but if you could just do me a solid and jump into that ominous pit and kill death itself for me, that’d be very cool of you. The chef made a nice fondue for you before you head out!”




  • Trivializing is taking very real and major struggles that certain humans experience to much greater degree than others and pretending it has the same gravity as minor annoyances that a wide range of people experience.

    If your comment is a joke or otherwise intended to be lighthearted, I apologize, but people saying in earnest what you said is a pretty major pet peeve of mine.

    Real “Chronic depression doesn’t exist because everyone feels sad sometimes” energy.

    Just like a sword is protective against another sword, a gun is protective against another gun.

    Someone swings a sword at you? Simply parry the blade.

    Someone shoots at you? Simply shoot the bullets out of the air.


    Nah, but the honest response is that guns are relatively commonly referred to as ‘protection’ (at least where I am) and I thought the word bit would be funny here, and also because it was my first thought. For what it’s worth, I agree with you that guns aren’t protective as a whole.

    Pre edit: Spoilers for FF legend II.

    Edit 2 electric boogaloo: We got spoiler tags up in here!

    spoiler

    FF Legend II is a fucking crazy game. If you get a game over, you meet Odin, and he makes a deal with you to bring you back if you promise to fight him later on.

    Well sure enough, you gotta fight him, and after you win, there’s no option to come back on a gameover, cause you killed the dude who brings you back. It’s just the option to reload a save after that.

    Not sure if I’ve ever seen a game before or after that with that kind of mechanics change on a boss kill.
