Hahahahaha. Christians wish the bible could be that consistent. He expressed regret many times throughout the bible. How does an unchanging being regret something when they not only knew exactly how it would play out, but even created all of the circumstances that lead to it? Sounds like things didn’t go how he planned it to.

I think a bigger deal is that over 80% of them are dying on ASRock boards. Not a good look for ASRock.

I fucking hate that I need to defend this guy, but like, have you guys seen the video? It was very clearly a joke. A joke. There are so, so many things to get pissed off about when it comes to him alone, focusing on a dumb joke is embarrassing. If a democrat said the same thing nobody here would bat an eye.

Are you sure? I’m a pretty heavy sleeper…

It’s a good thing we got rid of all those unqualified DEI hires!

Runescape but it requires physical exercise? Sign me the fuck up!

Nah you just don’t get it, slavery is fine when god commands it because he created us and might makes right, obviously. /s

Yeah, I will occasionally throw call-in shows like the atheist experience on as background noise while I do things. I’ve heard my share of terrible takes on why slavery on the bible is actually a good thing.

Haha no, god explicitly commanded slavery on multiple different instances. That’s irrelevant though, as god is the one who created everything knowing how it would turn out with full ability to prevent it, making it 100% his fault. For example:

When God supposedly created Adam and Eve, he had perfect foreknowledge that they would eat from the tree and cause the bullshit that is the fall and original sin. And yet, he still put the tree there. He still put the serpent there. He still gave them access to the tree. He could have chosen not to let any of these things happen, but he didn’t.

When a toddler swallows a bottle of poison you’ve left on the floor, whose fault is it? (Hint: it’s not the toddler’s, and it’s certainly not the toddler’s future great great great great great grandchildren’s)

Not every narcissistic person has NPD.

Shows what you know about narcissism 😎

Though, admittedly, these people probably do have NPD.

Crazy what a bad haircut does to a mf.

It’s not just a day of work if you get fired and your family starves.

I agree that we seem to use language differently, and it’s pretty interesting to see. Both of us have been upvoted by at least one or two other people as well, so it seems some people agree with you and some with me despite our completely different takes, so I don’t think either of us are really wrong.

According to the dictionary, ‘is’ and ‘was’ are respectively a present and past tense singular of the word ‘be’. The definition of the word ‘be’ (or at least, the one I find relevant here), is “having the state, quality, identity, nature, role, etc., specified”. This seems like a significantly more important part of the sentence to be emphasizing here.

On the moon he is the alien.

As opposed to who? I still just can’t understand why you would emphasize ‘he’, when there are no other subjects that we could be talking about. Like, obviously we’re talking about Neil, so why would you put emphasis on it? On the other hand, the fact that he actually ‘is/was’ an alien is pretty surprising to think about and thus the important bit. That is to say, it makes more sense to emphasize the fact that he is an alien, and not the fact that Neil is the subject.

The emphasis is not being placed on was because it’s past tense, it’s being placed on was because the shitpost is ironically somewhat accurate. You can replace it with is if you’d like for the same meaning. On the other hand, everyone knows we’re talking about Neil as there is no other relevant subject, so bringing attention to the word he doesn’t really make any sense.

Perhaps it would read better if they had said “…he actually was an alien”?

Why would he be italicized? ‘Was’ would be italicized because the emphasis is being put on the fact that he actually was an alien.

This is fire.

Yeah, the entire joke is a subversion of expectations. The only reason the joke works at all is because the format is being used “incorrectly”.

Well-priced for the content of the game itself, with or without 20% off.

You have such a way with words.

I haven’t read the article, but surely this is an accident? I have almost no faith left in our capitalistic society, but surely even Youtube understands that nobody is going to watch an hour long ad, right?
