This was an insult because there's several causes:

  1. Lady is a redditor telling her side, which means that she said it in the worst way possible and changed it a bit.

  2. Lady thinks she ought to post what happened to online, and not just anywhere but reddit.com/r/offmychest because I dunno reasons.

  3. Again this lady posted this to reddit and doesn't even really own up to it even though all her friends, who she probably told the actual story to, told her she fucked up.

No critical support for redditors, if this story wasn't made up for karma then what she actually said differs from what she wrote there.

Now with the Olympic Games coming to an end it is important to think of the things that matter. Like how the USADA let cheating athletes continue to compete under the 'we need you to go deep undercover use even more PEDs' story. And sometimes them just very conveniently giving out sentences that'll allow their athletes to still compete in competitions like Wesley Kitts. It's pretty obvious that the US is just doing whatever and has been using the fact that the olympic comitee is primarily staffed by westerners to do some of the most blatant cheating.

WADA is now aware of at least three cases where athletes who had committed serious anti-doping rule violations were allowed to continue to compete for years while they acted as undercover agents for USADA, without it notifying WADA and without there being any provision allowing such a practice under the Code or USADA’s own rules.

Oh wow how progressive Mothman, wait a second what does it say there? 'Mothman says Gay Rights?' soviet-hmm

Mothman just supports gay conservatives like Dave Rubin but not much more than that, I don't see that one say 'Mothman supports queer rights' not even mentioning trans rights.

HELPING PEOPLE? HE'S A DISASTER TOURIST, A MISERY PERVERT and worst of all he likes Trump, Mothman wasn't seen anywhere near Butler, PA. I'll let you draw your own conclusions but I'll just say that Mothman knew what was going to happen and thought 'Yeah it's good that nothing happens to him, that's mah president Donald J Trump and I Mothman support my president.'

Wrong, you are so wrong Othello, Mothman would always be absent going "Oh sorry honey I can't there's about to be a train accident and I have to loom ominously in the general area of Ohio, yes I know it's our anniversary but this is what I NEED TO DO."

Meanwhile what's Bigfoots biggest flaw? Oh you can never take a picture with the guy it'll always come out blurry, but at least he is there for you, caring for you.

That is not even mentioning Mothman showing up in the Panama Papers..... Bigfoot would never be a capitalist

Alright mini rant here because reasons but

The US just can't accept that WADA, which receives more funding from the US than from any other country in the world, isn't biased towards Americans.

It quite literally is though I think the best example of this is currently Wesley Kitts who was popped with methylhexaneamine, basically amphetimes, and got caught. Now they say 'Well he didn't want to compete and did those drugs recreationally so we will only allow a suspension for one month' which went from July 3 to August 3, weightlifting competition starts on the 10th which is really really really opportune timing. Now before you bring anything up let me again say this:

He got popped for a competition that was mandatory for qualification for the olympics. He weighed in. He really wanted to compete and got popped. And even if he didn't attempt to stimulants like this provide more blood to skeletal muscle which in turn helps build muscle mass and this drug can and has been used to mask other performance-enhancing drugs.

The USA is getting special treatment but they are not getting enough special treatment it seems. Like they pulled this shit for a weightlifter that the last time around came 8th in his weightclass. Absolutely embarrassing show at the very least by the US weightlifting team but watching commentary on swimming, tennis and the newest 'boxing scandal' the USA should be heavily penalized but they won't.

It depends but yeah, Rolex weren't a super luxury brand until they featured heavily in the Bond movies and when swiss watches were worn by pilots and got some prestige. That's also one of the cheaper ones to buy nowadays (2000~USD) since a ton of pilots would buy them so they are the 'mass-produced rolexes'

In other news:

“For so long, American culture was the thing that we exported. It is very strange to watch everyone be OK that it’s getting imported,”

It seems like the US film and tv industry is in big crisis which will get even worse soon. Saw another article I can't find that says that currently there aren't enough scheduled movies for fall and winter. It would be somewhat fitting that the last 'great blockbuster' of the USA would be a marvel movie as the cultural hegemon loses power.

I don't disagree with you because you are wrong I disagree because it hurts because I like Truenamers so much they got a great concept and just overall cohesion that I enjoy like, 'oh yeah speak this word to speed something up, speak it backwards to slow someone down', what I'm saying that class has greatness its just yeah....

I guess the weaker classes would be stuff like NPC classes I don't know if Truenamers could win again 3.5e CW Samurais to be honest depends on what level and equipment but it might actually be close depending on who wins initiative.

How dare you if I could pass a DC 32 check I'd unspeak you right now.

Also Truenamers aren't the worst they are cool, they are really really cool
