    So I just found out about a site called Kiwi Farms, which is basically a troll forum where Neo-Nazis dox, swat, and otherwise harass people they deem "mentally ill" (ironic).
    Never before have I ever been more sympathetic towards Stalin's Gulags.

    What do you do when you know that you have an addiction, but you love it so much that you don't even want to address it?
    Ben Holt
    In all realism, it's probably Spring Man, which means that NOTHING deconfirms a character be it a Spirit, Mii Costume, Assist Trophy, Stage cameo (Villager and Toon Link), being part of another character's moveset (Chrom), or even being a stationary character (Piranha Plant).
    But this does mean that Waluigi is on the table, and now I'm torn between Waluigi and Toad as my most wanted first party character.

    Call it a gut feeling (because that's exactly what it is) but even if it is Spring Man, I still don't think we're getting Waluigi. After the ARMS character we only have 5 Challenger Packs left, it's VERY unlikely that all of them will be Assist Trophy promotions, and Spring Man aside the number of Assist Trophies in Ultimate that people talk about a lot as wanting them to be playable hits a grand total of 15.

    I'm going to be blunt here.

    You do not have a genuine most wanted character. You're just in it for roster polishing, and that isn't your job when you're requesting characters.

    Crash has been my most wanted since after Brawl.
    Banjo was second, and he's in.
    I really want Doom Slayer and Master Chief.
    I could list a dozen Mario characters that I want, but many are insanely unrealistic such as Dry Bones.
    You gotta realize that I'm a Nintendork to my core. I'm a Super Nintendo baby whereas you probably got into gaming around the DS era, so most of my wants are already in. Anything more, with few exceptions, is just polish. I really wish you wouldn't impune me for being relatively satisfied with the roster we have now.
    Beyond Crash, Doom Slayer, Master Chief, and Heihachi, I want classic characters like Toad, Earthworm Jim, and Ristar.
    Hell, I still want a ton of Sonic characters. Shadow, Tails, Knux, Eggman, Metal Sonic, Amy, Blaze, Silver! I love Sonic! I'm a 90s kid!
    It just really hurts my feelings that you friend dumped me and ridicule me for having different wants than you.

    I have a confession.
    I created the Coronavirus.
    I work in a bar, so I was hoping to not work on St. Patrick's Day.
    I got my wish.

    Random love advice to my friend:
    Think of yourself as a cat.
    If you love someone, show your belly. Some may stab it, and it will hurt like hell.
    But when the right person comes along, they will not stab, but rub. And you will know when you're getting your belly rubbed.

    Day 1: A ***** starts nasty rumors about me that nearly drive me to suicide.
    Day 2: Accidentally got drunk at my nephew's birthday party and felt like utter ****.
    Day 3: My parents decide to give me their house so that I can take care of my 80-year old father, and now I'm $200,000 richer overnight.

    Wow.

    Hori makes some of the most amazing specialty controllers (fight sticks, racing wheels, etc)!
    BUT WHY THE HELL ARE THEY NOT WIRELESS?!

    Day 2 ain't much better.
    ****, last night I learned just who never cared in the first place.
    Ben Holt
    I just had the weirdest thought.
    Since most animals have nipples on their bellies, but us primates have nipples on our chest, does that mean that if we had evolved normally and kept our belly nipples, that crop tops would show off our chest instead of our bellies, because then our no-nos would be on our stomach, and our chests would be inoffensive?

    I was gonna ask out the cute girl that worked the front desk at the gym today, but right as I had a plan, she QUIT!

    That is, indeed, too much a poor coincidence.

    I've had a similiar concern with a girl from the gym. Basically, I never really talked to her inall the months she's been there, and when I (apparently) finally gather the courage to decide to talk to her, she stops going. Haven't seen her in months.

    Really, really, really, super, uber, bad day today.

    I'd usually stay away from handing out advice for the sake of it, but I also realise it's not exactly an everyday occurence.

    I'm trying to live by something I heard a while ago: "If you don't stand for something, you might fall for anything". It's about the heavy emphasis on living for something, rather than letting the everyday life take a toll on you. I know almost for a fact we all live in this way, that we don't know where to go in our life. It's like we're living life on accident. I once heard a guy say 24 out of 25 people don't know why they get up everyday.

    I used to be no different. I started getting heavy depression when I was 15. I literally thought something inside me "broke", as if a light, or a spark just went out, for no reason. That's when I started contemplating suicidal thoughts, and other things that would leave me restless. Things started getting better as the years went by, but it wasn't coincidence. I started by taking better care of myself, such as the way I looked. In school, I started going out more, whereas I used to stay all day in the classroom and not socialising.

    This story could go on a lot longer, but the bottom line is that, the more we stray from what is our natural state of being, the worse we feel. As a society, we're slowly degrading into becoming sedentary and in front of screens all day. Our dopamine receptors are quite ****ed, because of this. Nobody taught us this when we were younger, so it's only up to us to pick up the pieces and not waste our time blaming others or thinking of things that could have been... consider taking up healthy habits, like consistently working out, drinking water, catching at least 5-10 minutes of sunlight and fresh air a day, and even sexual abstinence, to an extent (yes, this matters).

    I just turned 25 myself, and I'm still trying to change my life. I'm not perfect, and I still struggle with things from time to time. I just realised that there's a way out, and it started as a revelation just over 2 years ago. A series of good habits have been changing the way I think and feel, and I think most other people could benefit out of this, instead of shifting responsibility to their enviroment, their backround and genetics.

    There is a way out. You aren't meant to live this way.

    Oh. I'm just sad because of family issues. My heart is very torn, and I just don't feel like I have much of a place to go.
    Ben Holt
    Monogamous relationships are really hard to maintain when you're pansexual.
    Explaining to your perfect girlfriend how you still need your gay side satisfied is very awkward. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I don't care for Heaven, so don't you look for me to cry.

    So I was hecking around with Random vs Random CPU battles, and I got Terry. I meant to do the "Are You Okay?" but I accidentally did Power Dunk and spiked Lucas at like 10%.
    Best missed input ever.

    I want abs, but the only crunches I like are the crunchiness of Doritos.

    Think of all the millions Frito-Lay has wasted advertising Doritos to fatasses like me that already know they are delicious.

    Spotify's Metallica playlist makes washing dishes for 8 hours much more tolerable.

    I miss Emily. On sad days like this, I wish I had someone to tell that I love them at night.
    Oi...
    Be kind to those with cruel hearts. They are probably suffering.

    Putin was right. Western Liberalism is dead.
    On January 31st, 2020, The American Republican Party voted to not bring their criminal president who admitted his own guilt to trial, and the UK fell to Nationalism and broke from the European Union.
    We are at a crossroad. Do we revert to Fascism or ascend into Socialism. Our choices today will affect the future of our entire species.

    The one quality that absolutely destroys my relationship with people is dishonesty, especially when someone apologizes in bad faith. If you say that you're sorry, but your actions show that you are any damned thing BUT sorry, you are going to lose my trust.
    I'd much prefer a, "**** you; I AIN'T sorry!" to an insincere, "I'm sorry."

    Well, I'd tell you, but considering I'd need a larger planet to lift the Earth against, I'd need to know exactly which planet I'm lifting on.

    But considering I experience an infinite number of eternities in every moment of time humans experience, I'd have to guess Epsilon-null.

    Holy ****. Byleth's Up-B to Side-B seems like a guaranteed combo at almost any percent, and it does like 30%.
    But, in my completely uneducated opinion, he doesn't seem to have that many tools besides that combo.
    But it could be another Banjo-Kazooie situation where people underestimated his Side-B.
    Ben Holt
    Not in Ultimate, but for the next Smash Bros. game, I think that Shovel Knight, Sans, Cuphead, Shantae, and Steve are the most likely additions.

    The next Smash game would be a reboot with some characters cut.
    Ben Holt
    Ben Holt
    No cuts! Once a Smash Bro., always a Smash Bro. Just look at Smash 4. Half the DLC characters were veterans
    Ben Holt
    I hate large crowds unless:
    1. It's a Metal concert, so I know that everyone there is cool.
    Or
    2. I'm the center of the crowd's attention.

    This may be anti-Tokyo personal bias talking but I highly doubt you would find enough free space to twitch on the floor as, well, there isn’t enough space to do so. Or you might just get stepped on or crushed by the weight of the daily commute.

    Oi. Being crushed to death sounds pretty fine right now. I literally cried last night thinking about my dog that died SIX YEARS AGO. Today was pretty ****ty too. In fact, the OP was inspired by like 200 people in the gym today ruining my exercise sesh. Lesley gave me the business, basically telling me that I'm not beneficial to her, and that made me sad too.
    Also missing one of my ex's, Ari. She was the first and only woman I ever asked to marry me. (For context: I'm a very emotionally firm person. I stick to my moral principles almost 100% of the time, and that dedication to openness and honesty leaves me a lot of room for emotional distress. But because of this, if I ever love someone, I never just stop loving them. The only ex I don't ever miss is one that turned into a crackhead.)
    Just a bit of an emotional hailstorm recently. But life goes by one day at a time.

    My dog passed away 12 years ago and I still get emotional. She was a Newfoundland and absolutely beautiful dog. Had her from 5th grade all the way to university graduation. We had two other dogs that eventually passed away while i was gone. It sucks. And many of my relatives are also passing away as of late. Lost both of my grandparents and a few aunts and uncles along the way. Not to mention a few old friends due to accidents, drugs, diseases, etc. It really sucks but I guess that’s why you keep living, I guess.

    I always try to appreciate things that I know I would appreciate. That’s good for my mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Like good sushi, a stroll in a park, a bourbon on the rocks after dinner, gardening, and blasting Between the Buried and Me on the way to work ;)

    I had a weird dream last night.
    It was a party for Byleth's release, but all the characters and I had to walk through all 50 of Terry's music tracks (for some reason, they were literally tracks, like the ones you walk on), and for some reason, my legs gave out, then my back, and I could barely hold myself up at all.
    So Mega Man comes from behind and carries me on his shoulders. He takes me to the Pokémon world and removes his helmet, revealing to be a cute Mexican twink that I met when I was 16. We caught Pokémon together. But we started getting swarmed by Pokémon, so we had to "reset the game". Unfortunately, I didn't save, so I respawned very far back, but Mexican Twink Mega Man came and found me. We then started cuddling.
    Fun dream.
