Huh, you got me mixed here. In general, I'd say bigger shops should be open maybe half day and then the others all closed.

I remember when I was a child all shops were closed on Sunday because or religion and culture. Being practical, it's indeed really useful to have shops open on Sunday, but on the other hand there are people who might work quite a lot. Also, it's kinda crazy how things escalated: firstly it was Sundays, then even the 24th of December and the 6th of January, I think. So, that's kinda sad imo, especially because it wouldn't take much to just remember to buy stuff before Sunday and if you're super lazy, there are ways to buy things and get them at your door.

AI art will replace human art at some point.

StCooler February 18th, 2023 2:57 AM

Disagree, even if I think most people don't comprehend what AI art really is, as it's clear (is it?) that AIs have no feelings, I don't think humans will be moved by AI art as much as they are by human art.

Multivitamins are necessary for most people.

ReKoil February 18th, 2023 6:54 AM

I wouldn't know. I'm living just fine without any kind of vitamin pills/tablets/whatever.
Imo they're only necessary if you eat next to no vegetables and fruit, and I got no idea if most people qualify for that. I'd like to hope not but wouldn't be surprised if that were the case in today's society lol.
I do take them when sick though, because good luck trying to force yourself to cook or eat anything healthy when you're sick as a dog xD
I'm rarely sick though.


Anyway they can be beneficial, but it depends on the type of person imo, and since idk if the group that would need them qualifies as 'most people' I'll just Disagree =D


Haste often makes waste.

Megan February 18th, 2023 10:39 PM

I agree. But I think the problem is a little bit bigger than that. Why are people forced to do stuff hastily? Is it because they're lazy or is it because we've come to a point where we have to speed up whatever we're doing in order to keep up? But yeah, being forced to do stuff quickly will only lead to it being done sloppily.

Many jobs only exist because our society expects everyone to do a job.

ZeoStar February 19th, 2023 11:16 AM

Not really. If so, it wouldn't be a bad thing either since a job is basically required to sustain being a living person. On the other end of that, I do believe there are many rules and regulations that only exist for the sake of having rules. (and the fastest way to find this out is inquiring about 'why something is a rule'). One of my schools had a strict 'no hat' policy and when I tried to ask why, I received a rather snarky response. That is all I needed to know.

$70 will soon be normal pricing for major video game releases across all companies.

StCooler February 19th, 2023 4:34 PM

Hum, isn't it 80$? (I've heard the new games cost 80€ but maybe I'm mistaken)
Well, people still pay for those games so I guess they're worht that price, so I guess I agree?
If people bought videogames on at least a 50% sale and three years after their releases so they're cheap, complete and patched, we wouldn't be there 😏

It's cool to be ambidextrous.

Sweet Serenity February 19th, 2023 5:09 PM

I agree. I am ambidextrous because I injured my right hand long ago when I was little. I was forced to write with my left hand for a long time, but doing so eventually became second nature. Now, I can write with both easily.

The truth of a subject is more important than your personal feelings on a subject.

Megan February 19th, 2023 9:07 PM

The truth is important. The hard part is when people carefully burry the truth with half-truth/propaganda/etc and require you to do extra work to figure things out. This may be ok for some; especially those who do research as their job. But the huge majority of people simply lack the time and proper edjucation to dig into specific topic. This is especially true when they aren't directly affected; because they're in the majority.

Games like Dark Souls should have difficulty sliders.

Afaik it's 70$ in the US and 80€ in Europe. The latter is considered not as great of a market so they need to demand more money (according to SONY, anyway. <_<)

I've seen a fair share of these types of videos in the past. xD

Alex_Among_Foxes February 20th, 2023 1:26 AM

Agree. They should be 'Hard', 'Even Harder', and 'Don't Even Bother'.
I'll take the last one thank you! Edit: I like Dark Souls because of how BS hard it is lol

Game Freak should have cut the Dex a lot earlier.

ReKoil February 20th, 2023 2:21 AM

Was gen 2 not early enough for you? =o
I mean there were already Pokemon unobtainable in the games as early as GSC: https://www.serebii.net/gs/unobtainable.shtml

Disagree, because cutting it even earlier would mean an incomplete gen 1 =o
which with how difficult to get Mew was back then it kinda already is rofl

Spoiler:
Alternatively, since I assume you mean the loss of National Dex support, and given that I never tried to complete a game's Dex or ever even transferred between Pokemon between games pre-Sword/Shield... I Agree honestly. Sure I've got a bunch of mons with no game to go to sitting in Home, but given that I've never really made use of the 'National Dex' before then, it may as well just never have been a thing at all to me =D
It's not like you need a National Dex to incorporate mons not native to the region anyway as you can see in the more recent games with mons that are in the game, but just don't get a Dex number.



Sandbox games become boring fairly quickly once you run out of things to do such as missions/collectibles/etc.

Megan February 20th, 2023 9:06 PM

Agree, especially since generic missions and collectibles seem to be the most part of these games nowadays. Well, there's also this thing called "digital tourism" which is them making the graphics extra pretty mainly so people look at the places in the games.
But I definitely like a good narrative/worldbuilding. And that is lacking a lot imo.

Silver is prettier than gold.

Sweet Serenity February 22nd, 2023 2:26 AM

The colors in general or jewelry? If jewels, I'd say it depends on what you're wearing. If you're wearing dark colors and or have dark skin, I would say silver is prettier, but if you're wearing light colors and/or have light skin, gold looks better. If the color in general, I agree. Shiny silver is just so pretty.

It is better to keep to yourself than go out and socialize with various people.

StCooler February 22nd, 2023 3:28 AM

It's better to socialize with people, unless you are too different. I'm not saying this because I have felt very alone for two years lol.

Manual updates are annoying.

I think you are mistaken, Megan probably refers to Pokémon Silver and Pokémon Gold. 🙃

ReKoil February 22nd, 2023 11:26 AM

Eh, updates in general tend to come at inconvenient times.
They don't bother me enough to call them annoying so I'll Disagree.

A lot of Paid DLC is overpriced.

Alex_Among_Foxes February 22nd, 2023 1:18 PM

Agree, especially when the DLC adds something that feels like it should've been there in the first place!

Fruit juices make the tastiest drinks.

Megan February 22nd, 2023 9:00 PM

They definitely can be. If only they didn't put so much sugar into them these days...

Cherries are underrated.

Can relate. Just make it "for my entire life", instead. *hugs*

Joke's on you. I grew up playing Gold and it definitely looked better than Silver, especially the sprites. Silver still had the better version exclusives, though...

ReKoil February 23rd, 2023 9:13 AM

Isn't Haribo pretty popular with kids? 🤔


I've never had regular cherries afaik, so idk. I've never felt any urge to try them at any rate.
Disagree due to being unfamiliar with their taste in the first place =P

Hollywood should scrap the mandatory 'love' scene already.
Or it feels mandatory given how many hollywood movies have it at any rate and it can be super awkward in certain movies rofl

RadEmpoleon March 13th, 2023 4:35 AM

Agree. Though that may just be the aroace in me, but these kinds of scenes are uncomfortable to watch. Especially if it's a forced romantic subplot that doesn't really make sense within the plot of the movie. (No I can't think of a specific example, but I would imagine maybe an action movie.) Please Hollywood, there's more to life than romance...

Mint chocolate chip is a good ice cream flavor.

Alex_Among_Foxes March 13th, 2023 6:10 AM

It's actually my favorite flavor, so I definitely agree!

The completely added-for-movie Dwarf X Elf subplot of the Hobbit trilogy comes to mind, and as a fan of the book, I found it both horrible and unnecessary.

The remakes of Gold & Silver aren't as good as the originals.

ReKoil March 13th, 2023 1:02 PM

Although I've never played the original GS, I'm still gonna disagree. I played the Crystal VC and I highly prefer HGSS over that.
Newer mechanics and QOL features will always win for me =3

Chocolate is the best candy.

StCooler March 13th, 2023 3:21 PM

Can someone disagree with this?

Tiramisu is the best dessert from Italy.

Sweet Serenity March 13th, 2023 7:25 PM

I don't think I ever had any Italian desserts that I can name right off the bat.

Never dwell in the past.

Megan March 13th, 2023 9:03 PM

Agree, but I'm still gonna do it, anyway! :P

Life is not short enough.

_confused_piplup_ March 14th, 2023 6:57 AM

Disagree. There is no exact parameter to measure how long life is and should be. It's subjective, so I disagree with the statement. Thinking about my own feelings, I still can't say because while everyone wishes to live a long life, it's also true that living as an old person has various cons. I don't really care for now.

YouTube is better than TV

Sweet Serenity March 14th, 2023 7:14 AM

Agree. I rarely watch actual TV these days.

It is better to talk on the phone rather than send text messages.
