Whole time I thought it was kinda weird that they had this blue-eyed, clearly white dude in this game that heavily utilizes Japanese folklore. But then I recently read that apparently he's now Irish, because there's this whole cultural thing about the Irish people and spirits:
So now I'm like... Okay, sure lol
It's whatever, I just found it amusing that the protagonist wasn't Asian, gave me some "The Last Samurai" vibes lol
Lol I had no idea, don't really keep up with Nioh-related news, just found it amusing regardless of whether or not there was a reason for it
Let a black man see some spirits and it becomes that evil and much feared voodoo. I guess it checks out, those peaceful nature loving, tree hugging, human sacrificing druids are much more family friendly.
that dude was a shipbuilder, lol, not a fighter. funny that that whole legend of Shogun! and white man in Japan is built on his foundation.
And he did get a pretty sweet deal, certainly a subject worthy of western fantasy.
Lmaoooo.
That's how I picture anybody that gets a whiskey and coke with me when I order hennessy.
You're missing outWhats wrong with a Jack and Coke(I have never had Henny.)

I hear you in the whiskey and coke, but not to big a fan of Henny anymore.
Sorry to hear that.
Whats wrong with a Jack and Coke
Nothing at all, but if somebody you with is getting a Henny or henny & coke, you should do the same. Henny goes so well with coke and it's not bad on its own. It's just more expensive sadly.
Sorry to hear it. You break it off or her? Iirc, you're young and we're around the same age. Shit definitely sucks but it opens up some of the most random doors and opportunities.
What's the story behind it? Lmao.
Shit my man, sorry to hear that

Sucks, bud..there will be others.
That's shitty. Sorry fam.
Thing is...I broke up with her because I'd rather cut it off now and not later because I'm scared. I'm scared of the reality where I love this girl and then poof, we're nothing.
I don't know
You're assuming there will even be a BHM this year
unbiased opinion
you either are shook as fuck and have issues that aint got shit to do with her or you leaving out a significant amount of detail
+10 on both
That's reasonable then. Don't let your first drink be henny. There's a reason why they sat hennything is possible.
Straight up.
Unless there's a significant reason, like different schools or something, then that's not a good reason. You can't be scared of progression in a relationship because most of them are gonna end up with you two getting very close and then becoming nothing. That's life and dating. It's a great and sad thing. You gotta embrace both aspects.
I have committment issues, I don't want a whole lotta ties when I go off to college. That's about it. I'm the type of person who would cut his arm off now if he knew it was gonna be cut off 6 months down the road.

I tried it once. Couldn't handle it. Don't like the taste.
Idk you're going to two separate colleges then you're 90% right to cut it off early. It doesn't work. I ended up breaking up with an ex the first weekend she came up.

Oddly quiet today, if you could believe it..
You could've cut it off when the need arose imo
I mean, I'm the king of making up excuses to break up with people. Thing is I don't feel about it. If you care, you should probably nail down why and label/box that but I don't know shit about your situation. I just know that if you feel bad about shit you do, you should at least figure out why and not pin it on other shit.
Cutting off people and arms are different

Just give her a call. I'm sure you can patch it up.
She's my best friend so I don't plan on losing her fully. My mental health ain't been right for a bit, really since we talked about us breaking up before college. The need came up when my mental health was fucked again. I still feel bad for screwing over my other ex, but I know exactly why that was me almost crying every couple of weeks.

Wait till a 80 year old white woman gets her flight to Boca delayed.
Mental health ain't no joke, but one thing that always gets skipped on (and mental health itself is a huge pothole in the black community) is how it effects others around you as well. I say this not to distract you from that obvious priority, but as a reminder that people who know or don't know notice (with or without the actual name of 'mental health') and involve themselves in you. Invest in you. Sometimes you need to be selfish and that's a good thing, but at the same time it benefits you to at least acknowledge that before amputating anything.
When someone invests in that part of you and in the part of you that is that relationship, you're getting into heavy shit.
But hey if you got a handle on it, all the better. Just don't ever run from calling things what they are. The day you get comfortable playing yourself you're fucked.

D) tell people Slayven hacked my account..
Yeah, you right. I'm not the type to say a decision I made wasn't my fault or I didn't do anything. I admit when I fucked up, when I'm a bad person. What's the point in lying to myself. I made this decision despite the fact I will still feel something for this girl because I needed to.
You gonna be alright breh

Is getting help for mental health cheap? That's a legitimate question btw
Where do you live?
andthebeatgoeson

Cheap? Naw. It's convoluted so it takes time, research, some luck, a good network of friends, etc.
Ehh. Insurance paid for the initial visits and I avoided therapy, so my pills came out to a little over $100 without insurance but free for the generics with insurance and like $25 for the name brand. Mine are NDRI instead of SSRI, though.
I would imagine it getting pricy if you went for consistent therapist meetings.

Washington state. Just figure I should have this info handy, just in case.
The thing that gets me most is that this man hasn't been in Sengoku Basara. The game literally has a gundam as a character, a man changed into a sexy gunslinger lady, a woman possessed by shadow demons, a priest with a robot, a guy that uses a massive ball and chain as a weapon and treats horses like motorcycles all while taking a piss on the laws of physics. Yet the black guy is missing.
