    Phrases nobody want to hear

    I feel like Konosuba's Aqua would get this, but I'd still marry her. I have family that's more annoying and the blue goddess is a praise whore and I love showering people with praise (and giving headpats)

    Recommendations A non-human who has a human pet

    I've been summoned! :ROFLMAO: Insecurity compensation would honestly be a good definition for what I rail on and on about now that I think about it. It isn't the content of people's work that bugs me, it's that risque themes are often presented dishonestly or coupled with narrative support for...

    Phrases nobody want to hear

    "Now, let us see how good a student I truly was." “A smile better suits a hero.” "Remember, remember us, remember that we once lived." "You dirty brother killer."

    do you like fantasy novels? and coupled with romance?

    You are not the only one cursed with knowledge. Have you seen the dude's Twitter page? If there was an upside down smiley reaction emojii, I'd abuse the hell out of it.

    do you like fantasy novels? and coupled with romance?

    Never said I couldn't appreciate a piece of fiction. In fact, even objectionable fiction can have its own merits. The Monogatari series has great writing and art direction, but features problematic elements and Made in Abyss' world building is nothing short of masterful, but the author posted...

    You may not have a signature advertisement, but you cannot hide your novels from me. I'm gonna dive into the yuri garden and smell the flowers.

    Are villain/villainess novels becoming cliche?

    No. What we're witnessing is the emergence of a genre/subgenre much in the same way .Hack and SAO and Spy Kids 3D(fight me) popularized the "trapped in a game world" genre, the problem is that the people riding on the coattails of the good ones don't know why they're good, and only want money...

    What would make someone drop a story?

    There's just this overall impression you get from the first few sentences . You can tell if the author has a voice and a reasonable level of competency almost all of the time, and in the first few chapters, you'll usually be able to tell if the story's going to actually go somewhere or meander...

    What would make someone drop a story?

    I agree so much with these two. When the main character is stagnant, but somehow manages to achieve their goals despite every bit of evidence screaming that they shouldn't be able to do so at their current level of growth I feel like the writer just doesn't know what they're doing. You can have...

    What would make someone drop a story?

    Inconsistency, poor composition, and excessive handwaves slay titles for me. For smut specifically, a lot of people will bring up the dreaded "NTR" tag, but it doesn't bother me at all, hell, in stories where characters have casual sex, it's often seen as a problem if "the protagonists' women"...

    Tribal mentality

    Oh. Oh, now I see. That's a very interesting take on it, one that I was vaguely aware of, but haven't really considered. It's valid. To me, such programs are transactional in the same way a work order is. You, as a citizen pay taxes to subscribe to the benefits of the state, and in turn...

    Tribal mentality

    I don't doubt your sincerity and I'm well aware of horrors of the modern healthcare system, even if you got a private caretaker there would be the chance of encountering a bad actor. That's a fair point. I still just don't get why anyone would go to war for the hell of it, and while I do doubt...

    Tribal mentality

    I didn't mean to assume you were from the US, but most users I've met are from the states. In any case, many 1st world countries have similar programs though. Have you looked? Have you asked around? Have you made a concerted effort to get the money you need to take care of your family or sought...

    Tribal mentality

    Do not test me. My entire family served in the military, the only reason I didn't get peer pressured into it is due to medical complications of my own. When you join up, you'll talk to your recruiter about the EFMP (Exceptional Family Member Program) which will coordinate with whatever...

    Tribal mentality

    Nonsense. You haven't made a gofundme, or saved up for a professional caretaker to help her while you go off to shoot people who hold no ill intent towards you specifically. As a soldier in the US, you'd make $1833 a month at E1 (private) alone, more than enough to get hired assistance with...

    I like you, Cipiteca396 and @Discount_Blade , interesting fellows to talk to. Don't take my disagreement to your stances or whatever you can glean from my politics as something larger than it is please. I'm having fun.

    Tribal mentality

    There are several armed conflicts you can involve yourself in right now in the 2nd and 3rd world. Entire PMCs profit off of it and would welcome anyone even as admin/support staff if you aren't fit to hold a rifle yourself, look hard enough, and you can probably find a group that would pick you...

    Tribal mentality

    I see, I see. If they're doing something bad to them, you would help. I would to. But what I'm interested in is if you would do something bad to someone your friend was targeting simply because they asked you to. Which could, of course, be interpreted in all manners of bad faith, but that's...

    Tribal mentality

    True to an extent, if someone is coming at me or someone I'm with with a hammer and they don't stop when I tell them to stop, they're getting .45, they had their opportunity to turn back. If possible, however, they would get that opportunity to turn back. Compassion, however, isn't necessarily...
