Some may disagree, but he is the worst of the entire resetera by a quite margin.
I strongly disagree.
Hecth is just embarrassing. Slayven is cute. Morrigan is just annoying. BDubs is an idiot.

Nephente is a sociopath, he needs to look for help and take drugs.

Respekt da Hecht!

They're all a bunch of cunts, but you're right about Nepenthe being a sociopath. They ramp up their rhetoric each post.

Jesus fucking Christ.

That makes me think that I know a guy in his sixties that says exactly the same thing. Far leftist, always been on welfare, never did anything with his life. He claims that success is all based on luck and hard work has nothing to do with it. His dream is to "crush rich people".

Hard work, only if you are aware of your position and work smarter and not harder. There's lots of people that think sitting at their desk after hours will be rewarded with a promotion.

Luck, It's like gambling the more chances you have the higher your chances are of winning. Keep making opportunities/chances for yourself. See: Work smarter not harder.

Losers. I've worked here for ten years, put in loads of overtime but someone who joined after me gets promoted every time.

I mean, it can be both.
Look at Scott Cawthon. Put in the work, made good products and then got lucky that one of them really caught on.
In some forms of success, luck is a factor.

Entitled lazy fucks.

I would be one of those people who they despise. The thing is, I started working when I was nine. Worked ever since, took my first proper holiday this year at 40.

have had luck as well, but working from a young age created the openings for the lucky strikes. Literally all my success can be traced back to the letter I sent to Club Nintendo in 1992 begging them to take me on, and the next year I worked for free to prove my worth.

People who don't have and will never have success never understand what it takes (the hard work, the management, the risks, the hard decisions, years of restrain, etc.) to finally get there.

They just think that everything is handed on a platter to a lucky few and that success depends on anything but yourself.

Dudes like this will hate entrepreneurs but will never have the guts to make the jump and become in a position where you have no safety net and everything depends on you.

This thread proves they have no idea how hard it is to be successful.

There is a gigantic amount of "right place and right time" for success but I just can't get on board with the "It's mostly luck" option.

To be "successful" is also a widely subjective target in life. I think with hard work and smart planning, most anyone can have an upper middle class lifestyle and to me that is pretty damn successful.

Beyond that, there are a lot of genetic, familial, and "right place, right time" variables that you can't just work through to become a Jeff Bezos or whatever.

All these people ranting about not working hard on their phones made from forced third world labor

if the socialist revolution ever happened the privileged 1%ers would be eaten as well. In fact they would be eaten first since they have no private security.

Fact is they share much more in common with Jeff Bezos than the African miner who contributed to their cell phone. Or the East Asian child who sewed their shoes. You notice that “yet you live in society” meme all the time? It’s because they don’t want to admit it’s true!

The more they scream about it on the internet the harder other people in other parts of the world have to work. By bitching they are literally making things worse. Keep cranking out those Apples.

You can be successful through hard work and in some cases people are successful through luck. The only thing is luck isn’t something you can work at or plan for. It just happens. You can make plans around working hard and putting in effort to be successful.

They seriously banned someone for actually being on the correct side of the TOS.

Just a reminder that I got perma banned from there for posting here on Gaf

Isn't that where the Term "Eat the Rich" comes from?

At this point, it doesn't even surprise me.

Check out this other insane ban : https://www.resetera.com/threads/da...fter-finishing-star-wars.276803/post-43846454

I think Daisy Ridley has a robotic expression as well. How the fuck is that a ban.

The exact same criticism is being said about Keanu for ages now. And he IS not an emotional actor, but hes perfect for cult movies like John Wick, Matrix and Mnemonic.. Ree won't ban you if you replace Daisy with Keanu. And the idiocy of it all is, thats actually sexist.

She was pretty wooden, intense-sad, intense-angry, intense-whatever else.

If she was only playing with what she had with the direction that sucks but Lando had more charisma and he could barely stand up.

But banning over that?

We need Cheebo on this case.
 

This thread originally had someone banned for fighting back against another member condoning violence. Then that ban was undone and the user condoning violence was banned. Then that ban was undone and the thread was locked and rebooted. Now the rebooted thread is locked.

What the fuck is going on over there? Staff fighting?

But she can look pretty

I don't think the design of Rey helped her at all. Like these celebrities have image and style consultants to look as good as they can and protect their brand. Which is why they probably turned down people like Brie Larson and chose a relative unknown who would be on board as looking weird

And then for like what? Five minutes make her look like this

I think the design, outfit definitely had an air of androgyny about it and did not help the actress at all.

I think they were paying homage to Lukes design from A New Hope, I think shes very attractive and a decent actress, I've seen her in other films and do well, but I do think she's kinda hard to not typecast, a bit like how Mark Hamill was

The biggest issue is Rey is a Mary Sue. She never left her home planet but could fly the Falcon with ease and hold a lightsaber with no training. She had no real struggle in the series and it damaged her.

Profile pronouns and a ticket system. Nice corporate help desk ticket system. Nice placebo for the masses.

I want people to use my preferred pronouns 'mental'/ 'delusional' going forward.

Banned (duration pending) inflammatory use of personal pronouns, history of cis pronouns

Honestly,

She has a pretty face and as anti-Ree material I liked that in TFA still. But Daisy Ridley is just as bad as Hayden Christensen. There is hardly any difference. Except the new trilogy is somewhat more cartoony (unlike the previous with only TPM being like that) and the cast has a bit better chemistry. She was saved by Adam Driver a bit, who is to me the highlight of this trilogy. But she's almost a carbon copy otherwise. Plus, Rise is for me the worst SW movie of all time and I've recently watched them all.

Nah, she's hot. I just hate her because she looks like a chick I used to fuck and hang around with a long time ago and got scorched.

I wonder if people learning English as a second language get confused by some people insisting on being referred to individually as plural pronouns.

Do pronoun police exist in French or Spanish speaking communities?

The male form es "ello", the female form "ella" and wokies have proposed "elle" for non-binary but so far it's not hit the mainstream.
