Oh no, i take phone breaks between my shits. Usually when i’m shitting i’m figuring out solutions to the worlds problems, disproving well established theorems and stuff. However when i’m done shitting i keep forgetting the solutions so here we are.
I get it’s a meme, but it should be “Toxic gamers”.
A competitive game, in a competitive mode usually attracts competitive people. These people want to win, are playing to win, etc. This is the enviroment made for that. People complaing in non competitive modes are just toxic people.
But it’s also toxic to enter a competitive mode as a casual, cause a loss for your teammates, then blame it on " I just play to have fun XD".
I want to argue a nuance that toxic overcompetativeness is a meta issue in gaming, not a direct issue with competitive games. Like it’s just as toxic to be like overly competitive with casual shit, though you’re more likely to be called out as the insane person you are if you’re being toxic over say something like animal crossing than if you’re playing league.
I do agree with what you’re saying though, it probably should just say toxic gamers to cover all of that because this is the internet and nuance has no transmission ability here.
It just had a janky vibe to it. I don’t wish to be misunderstood here. I saw it as a interesting detail to comment on, and I pointed out it could just be me overthinking it, I never intended to judge the quality of the joke on this.
Oh sorry, I didn’t actually realize I was reading into that a judgement that wasn’t there. I thought you were implying it was a bad/valueless joke because it used generated art.
Totally agree with it being a janky vibe though. Feels a bit cursed haha
“We have not seen any material reaction from consumers,” P&G CFO Andre Schulten said. “So that makes us feel good about our relative position.”
There it is folks. Straight from the horse’s mouth. They won’t do what’s in the best interest of humanity without “material reaction” (ie; an arsonist or maybe even something more extreme.)
Where I’m from you still have to go through someone who makes sure all of the shit in your cart is in your receipt, it adds like 30-60 seconds and it’s a single employee for six checkouts.
I know Costco and Walmart do that. The majority of normal grocery stores around me do not. That’s one reason I rarely go to Costco or Walmart. With Costco they have cashiers as well, so it seems like they don’t need to have the 2nd person. It feels like they assume customers are criminals until proven otherwise.
Criminal until proven otherwise for checking that you didn’t miss anything in your cart? That’s extreme, people do make mistakes, if you actually want to steal you can still pocket stuff, the employee likely won’t give two shits since that’s a job for a security guard like it’s always been.
If you’re paranoic about being perceived as a potential criminal that’s fine, you do you, but labeling any sort of basic control as an accusation is not cool, might as well label the presence of a security guard as such.
At Costco they have cashiers and they have your cart and verify it’s empty/everything was scanned. I’m not really sure what the 2nd check is for, other than wasting time.
If it’s all self-checkout it makes sense that they may check receipts. Where I’m at I’ve never seen the two linked. We self-checkout, then walk out, or go see a cashier, then get checked again. So when receipt checking came up I jumped to my experience there, which was alway separate from self-checkouts.
I remember I switched to chrome way back when chrome was first becoming popular because of its speed compared to Firefox in like 2010 or something. Firefox caught up within a year and I have never missed Chrome for a second.
Oh, I was similar. When Chrome was new I liked it, but it seems to be vulnerable to get these weird superfluous add-ons that I may have acquired through malicious links. When I switched to Firefox I wasn’t as suseptible to malware, and the speed was just as good.
