I don’t think I ever played that one. Again, I'm not really into video games, I’d much rather be out with my friends! Even as a kid, I would be out riding my bike with friends, and as soon as the first of us turned 16 and got a car, we’d all pile in, and head to the beach! Then one-by-one as we all got cars, we’d often just meet-up at the beach. As they could just push a button and drop the roof, I had to un-clip mine and use a special lift in the garage to lift it off, and remove my doors! It took maybe 10 minutes, but you’d be surprised how many of my friends would wait around to head to the beach in my Jeep, rather than go in their own car, or stay home playing video games.
well at least this type of video game you're more active. gotta be really good at your shooting.
Yeah, but is it really THAT active? Your still sitting on your couch, or your “Ass-Grower 9000” specialty gaming chair, instead of going out and actually getting exercise! If you enjoy shooting, then go to the range and shoot real guns! THAT at least gets one off their ass, holding up and aiming a heavy hunk of iron. Not to mention that you are out and walking around. Thats gotta be better for lifetime healthy habits than just sitting on your ass literally twiddling your thumbs! You have OFTEN commented about how you like my body… You think I got THAT from sitting down all weekend? I work my ass of (literally) to keep my body in top physical form! Thats the major reason I date muscular guys, I appreciate a man who cares about his body and works hard to maintain a good healthy physique! Men who work hard to look good, get women who work hard to look good! Thats just how it goes. So if I was given the choice, go for a walk in the park, or get a chance to play the latest whizz-bang super deluxe video-game… I’m going for a walk!
lol well i feel like you probably presume things too much on people. looks can be deceiving after all. you can still have a physically fit guy who only likes to work out but is otherwise lazy at home... or have a skinny guy who maybe not works out but is regularly very active but his favorite past time is playing video games.
Just saying. and this game i've seen people stand up and shoot at the screen more often then just sitting down on the couch lol. this game makes people real competitive. cause that laughing dog really does get on your skin for missing trust me lol.
Okay! Well far be it for me to contradict a video game expert. I will say this, you seem to have been getting more and more hostile towards me, now you are accusing me of presuming too much about people? First doug, where did I presume anything? Im telling you that in MY lived experience a guy who works out 3 to 5 days a week, and is active outdoors, are NEVER lazy when they get home. You have to have a drive to push past pain in order to achieve a muscular body, and the types of men and women who are committed to that lifestyle… laziness is antithetical to everything they stand for. As for “skinny guys” I don’t date skinny guys either, so why bring up skinny guys? And it’s not JUST the “fat” or “skinny” about them that makes me not date them… I am an active woman, I enjoy long hikes, mountain biking, paddle boarding 5 to 10 miles, and I don’t want to stop doing what I enjoy, because the guy I’m dating gets out of breath within 15 minutes and we have to stop! And I ABSOLUTELY do not understand why you are getting SO hostile towards me! (Notice how I did not presume to know the reason, or even hazard a guess what is bothering you?) I try not to assume or presume to know what another human being is thinking! I try to be the best person I can be. I completely avoid things like twitter BECAUSE of the constant arguing and hostility towards anyone who doesn't think exactly the same things as they do. Doug, I have been sweet, kind, open and honest with you, but more than anything I’ve been a friend to you, and I have to be honest, that I really do not enjoy this newfound hostility toward me. Even when I was in the worst mood possible in the RW and treated you unfairly, I have always apologized, and endeavored to make it up to you… So yes, I will just have to ASSUME that something in the real world has you so upset that you are reacting unfairly towards your online friends, and hope that whatever it is, you get over it soon.
Laura… there was nothing hostile in my reply. Nothing. Im just pushing back a little in a friendly way. It’s starting to feel like i just can’t disagree with you now or you will get mad at me.
Im not mad at you. Nor will i ever. You got your opinions. I have mine.
Like I seriously kept that reply as jovial as i could free of any hostility at all except that i had slight disagreements with you. I mean you’re right in that there's plenty of gamers who dont get nearly enough exercise and such but all im saying is not to assume such if someone ever tells you they like the video games. Thats it.
And its true you have been very sweet to me. I do very much appreciate that. Its refreshing actually. I hardly ever get such sweet treatment. <3
But if i have an opposing opinion I usually just say it and dont back down. I guess i can just spare you from expressing mine the next time you answer a question and i have slight or acute disagreements with you over.
When someone like me takes affirmative steps to make sure that I do NOT assume (or presume) to know what is in the hearts of others, and goes the extra step of previously telling you how hurtful it is when people accuse me of prejudging others, yet you continue to do it… then yes it is hostile, at least to me! There have been numerous occasions when either you or others have made this accusation, and I have made it abundantly clear that it is highly offensive to me! Doug, what upsets me most about this is the fact that I wasn’t the one who brought any relationship between gamers and being over weight… YOU WERE! I simply said that I didn't play video games now, or growing up because, as I was too active outdoors, I didn't have time. To which you replied something about how this one particular game was different, because some people played it standing up! (As if standing up in one spot, has EVER been counted as exercise?) Seriously, read it again! My first post reads basically, I didn’t play video games because I didn’t have time, I’d rather be riding bikes with friends. You were the one who replied, “well at least this type of video game you're more active. gotta be really good at your shooting.” Which completely shifted the focus of the chat, from why I didn't play video games to the unrelated subject of exercise… YOU DID THAT, NOT ME! Once you had shifted the focus, you then pilloried me for “presuming too much”! I simply say that I didn’t have time to play games b/c I was too active outdoors, and you feel required to “push back” because some people stand in one spot while they push the little clicky button (an absolute non sequitur)! My answer was that I did not have time to play video games, and YOU changed the focus of the discussion to exercise, and thus YOU manufactured a disagreement. None of this would have happened if, instead of changing the focus, your answer actually addressed what I wrote, yet I’m the bitch you can’t disagree w/, w/o an argument?
I have an idea, if you don’t like arguments, maybe stop manufacturing them!
you aren't a bitch Laura. You have your own thougths and feelings and despite what you might think i do respect you for having them.
look i only viewed this as a simple little disagreement. that is it. and i guarantee you if it was in person and you heard my tone of voice or got my body language you would know that i mean absolutely no hostility to you. none at all. like we are on a question about a simple video game from the 80s.
My intention was never ever to anger you. just have a friendly little disagreement ii have them often with all my friends and my family. you are no exception here. that said i feel like i will have to really think before i have another little disagreement with you in the future. I just can't... or don't want to fight you on anything anymore.

Doug sweetie, you didn’t address a single thing I wrote, well except for the last sentence! It’s 1am, I began writing that at 11, but it was way too long, so I moved it into a character counter, and had to rewrite it using 50% of the characters but somehow not loosing any context or content. That is no easy task, and after 2hrs I completed it, posted it, and you all but ignored it! Perhaps it would go a long way to healing our friendship if you actually addressed my concerns in my last post…well 2nd to last, you know which one I mean. Maybe address the point that I never mentioned weight, or anything about gamers until YOU changed the focus of the discussion. That my only comment on video games was that I didn't have enough time to play them, and I enjoyed being outside with my friends too much! I remember a time when I was under a lot of stress at school, I had some issues in my personal life, and I was pms’ing and I was rather rude to you… I felt awful for taking out my frustration over things that had nothing to do with you, ON YOU! And I apologized profusely! I didn't just say “oops my bad” or “sorry, must have been the PMS! I sincerely apologized to you for treating you unfairly, and taking my frustration out on you, and promised that I would take active steps to never do that again! I have done just that. I stay off GAG in the few days before my period, I never answer anything when I’m upset, and if anything DOES upset me, I walk away, grab a coffee or other beverage, and when finished I return to answer the upsetting post. But it seems that with you, no matter how carefully I explain that this is not on me, you changed the subject then started an argument on the new subject, you refuse to acknowledge that your changing the subject caused the disagreement, not me! Yet your reply to that post just goes on about how you just can’t have any disagreements with me? Why would you want disagreements?

All I said was that I didn't have time for video games, but you turned that into a discussion on exercise! Doug, I promise you, if you would have asked “do you think video gamers are lazier that active outdoor types” I would NEVER have answered it! Further, if ANYONE else would have mischaracterized my answer about time availability, into one about exercise… I would have asked them to kindly stay on topic, and don’t mischaracterize my answer. But because of our friendship, I didn’t, and frankly I didn’t because I could never have imagined where it would end up. I understand that you may have meant it in a jovial way, but non-verbal communication is completely absent from on-line dialogue. I only have your words to go by, and given the amt of times I’ve either told you directly, or asked for your help in situations where I was accused of being presumptive, I was sure you would never accuse me of that because you’d know how offensive that is to me. But rather than the “normal” fun doug, I’m used too, I’m seeing the exact same thing I saw when I was 13 & 14 during the 2016 election where people who disagreed on who they thought should be president, suddenly disagreed on EVERYTHING! It tore families apart, and there are STILL relatives in England we don’t speak to because of the terrible abuse hurled at my mom and dad for openly supporting & voting for Hillary! I have messages going back to when I was 17, asking me “why are you acting like nothing is going on between us” just because I answered politely a question posed by someone whom I disagreed with on a prior question. My answer was always “because this is a different question, and my disagreement with you has nothing to do with THIS question, and it DAMN SURE IS NOT PERSONAL!” But this just feels different, Doug! It honestly feels like you are deliberately trying to start a disagreement with me! Maybe it is b/c of the Roe issue, I truly do not know. But this is not the you I have grown to love and respect!
Just understand, that I don’t want disagreements with anyone, least of all you! MY issue with all this was that I was hurt by the way you completely changed the subject then accused me of starting a disagreement! If you would have simply addressed what I wrote instead of changing the subject, there would have NEVER been a disagreement, and I'm hurt that you have laid this all squarely on MY shoulders, instead of just acknowledging that your changing the subject created a disagreement where non existed!
well the abortion question was different ill admit. im just super passionate about that issue so of course you may see a different more emotional light on those ones than you may be used to.
But i assure you Laura you are still my good friend. and this was only meant as a friendly banter i suppose? yeah like the kind i have with my siblings.
I see you as a super good friend to me Laura. you had my back a number of times inclusing with the recent gag drama i had with another user on here. im very appreciative of that and its not something i take lightly. that kind of thing does matter to me a great deal.
and like you never want to offend or hurt men intentionally, i never intentionally try to hurt you or offend you. perhaps im a little loose with my sarcasms or something... but in the end its only meant in a friendly manner. ill make attempts to weed out that stuff for you in the future. I keep saying this. i do care about you. i would not be giving you this much attention if i didn't. so please lets continue our friendship. am very sorry for hurting you or making you angry.
anyways. im actually dealing with some separate drama now on this site. maybe you can help me with that too if you want to?
Thank you, I can’t stand tension and disharmony, especially between friends, and your apology means a lot to me. I know that we haven’t been friends long (in the grand scheme), but we have been friends longer and through more ups and downs than any other on-line relationship I have ever had. So lets not argue any more, eh?
yes please let us not. like it seriously was getting to me that i hurt you there. i promise it was never my intention.
Anyways. think you can help me out with my little drama? if you want to now?
What drama?
Ill dm you
Okay.
I love dogs but this one is pissing me off...
How tf did Nintendo look at this and think, “oh we should TOTALLY add this to Smash Ultimate”. Like, they could have added Deoxys but instead the roster is filled with bs like this
i like him so boohoo :P
But that’s not the worst of it. Duplicates. Specifically Pichu. It is LITERALLY Pikachu but with a bigger head
Actually, I take that back. I keep forgetting that Deoxys is also a Psychic Legendary and we already have Mewtwo so instead I say they should have added either Zarude, Darkrai, or maybe even Tifa
Fuck that dog, lol
I swear, they only added him to Smash Bros so that players could vent years of psychological rage on his giggling ass.
