It’s ok, just relax im sure it will be fine.

@Rain Sunburst  
Best way to go about it is to request and forget. Set a timer every once a while asking them how it goes.  
By once a while I mean twice a week and not every day.

@Selaphiel  
Sorry for your loss.

@Selaphiel  
My condolences.

Why do some online gamers seem to deliberately mispronounce “Sonny” as “Sony?” It’s so annoying! IT’S PRONOUNCED “SUNNY,” NOT “SONY!”

@Lord Goku  
Funny enough, I believe the company name “Sony” had it’s origins in “sunny” and “Sonny”.

@DarkObsidian  

 
How are ya fairing yourself?

@Lord Goku  
Same reason people phonetically pronounce “Super Mario Bros.” with “Bros.” literally as “Bro’s,” not knowing it’s an acronym for “Brothers,” and is actually fully prounced “Brothers.”
 
Like Jr. = Junior.
 
Many Zelda fans (including people from Nintendo of America) also mispronounce “Ocarina.”  
It’s “Aw-Car-ee-Nuh.” Not “Oak-ar-ee-Nuh.”

I need brain therapy.

I despise hypocrites who flip-flop on their principles whenever it’s convenient for them or otherwise don’t practice what they preach. I don’t care WHAT their professed beliefs are.

@Jarkes  
Surely this is different from changing one’s mind?

@WyrmSpawN
 
@Jarkes  
It is natural for principles to change in people over time.  
But those who flip-flop on a whim are the ones who I’d be skeptical of.

@Selaphiel  
Like people who first say they are nice, mature persons and on the next mouthbreath they say they love watching the suffering of people they hate, or when they say that murder is a terrible thing that nobody deserves, but they would make an exception if it involves people they hate, I suppose.
 
They are terrible persons and they wouldn’t stop reminding everyone why.

@Anonycat
 
 
Even I’ll admit. Realistically. There are always exceptions…
 
But the problem is when the “exceptions” are so frequent it become seemingly like the standard for them.

@Selaphiel  
The problem is when the “exceptions” won’t stop lecturing everyone for the same things they do at a regular basis, either because they are too stupid to be aware of what they do, or because they have their head stuck up their ass and think it’s not bad or hypocrite when they do it because of reasons.  
Either way, they are horrible persons.

You know what? I’m just about done thinking about my life choices, because this….this isn’t mt life. I’m not it. I don’t control my life… I never did.

@WyrmSpawN
 
It depends on whether them changing their mind is sincere or not.
 
 
@Selaphiel
 
Yup.

Also, bigotry of any kind is not exclusive to specific ideologies. Exhibit A: Frank Miller, who’s very liberal but, well, (gestures at 90% of his creative output in the past 2 decades).

Finally stepped out of the house to go to the store to buy some stuff, I can now see the full extent of the situation. People with face masks everywhere and at the line, there was tape on the floor six feet apart, I felt pretty anxious and a little bit nervous just surrounded by a bunch of people so close to each other.

@Myoozik  
Were you wearing an N95?

@MagpulPony  
No, I wasn’t wearing a mask.

Man I’m getting bored as hell staying at home a lot.

@Myoozik  
Yeah, doing that would make me paranoid. Even though I still have no milk and no cereal and the butter is running out.

@Jarkes  
I’ve seen just as many bigioted liberals, as I have conservative ones frankly.  
That said, I’ve known nice ones on both sides, as well.

@Beau Skunky
 
Yeah, same. I have quite a few conservative friends who despise the current Republican Party.
 
But this conversation is probably better suited for other threads.
