  • Devils advocate:

    If you’re known as a guy that loves Pokémon cards and people keep gifting you Weedle’s (one of the lowest powered and most common cards in the game), then after a while you’re going to be like “thanks guys, I know you want to gift me and to not just throw the card away, but these are worth literally nothing to me because I already have much nicer examples and I don’t need/want/have room for them, I’d just be throwing them away myself”.














  • You’d probably be more in to it if you were interested in the history of food.

    For me personally, I do find it interesting to consider what people did for food, in an age where you couldn’t just pop to the supermarket and buy literally whatever you wanted, or select from a plentiful choice or restaurants and takeaways.

    My girlfriend loves Jane Austen, so she would have been interested in this video in particular.

    It’s a well presented and well made video, even though the interest could be considered niche, as you put it, it saves me from needing to go through several pages of Wikipedia 8/10




  • It’s a satirisation of the people so woke that they’ll make enemies of people just for buying a game.

    Of course transphobia is a real issue, but some people are blowing it out of all proportion to the point that they are not only failing to help the cause but actively alienating people who are otherwise broadly in support of equal rights for all people.

    Edit: imagine getting downvoted because you’re concerned about alienating your support, what I meant to say was “fuck terfs and fuck any bigot that bought this game, reeeeeeeeee!!!”
