I'm not sure you can reduce it to traits in the method you mean. I think mostly it severity. I do think stress can have something to do with it. I mean, there is no "neat freak" trait; that's something people who don

No, it wasn't a coworker; it was a customer's adult child they left with us now and then more or less to babysit. He didn't misuse it at all; the idea of "neurodivergence" would be impossible for him to get. It was

To be blunt, I think a lot of people here misuse autism. The autistic person I had to deal with a lot of times had "difficulty" with social cues in that he was an adult that had no idea of not standing by others when they were wor

It's hard to say things like kink or spaghetti monster are counter culture when they were routinely held by people in high positions of power in the culture and used to destroy or attack the impediments to capitalism. Atheism is capita

It is not to free people, it is to free the abstract idea of people. This is how leftists are as tyrannical as everyone. They have a romantic idea of the poor which is not tied to their actual existence or wants, and act on it. Too often, i

nah, if anything aggressive financial models seem to work better, because they increase the limit of what people spend on a game. People pay $30 just to own a mount now; and its easy to make a lot of mounts for people who buy them. A fighti

You pay less with plus for most of the games. Like I paid $60 for the PS4 Final Fantasy 7 remake, when I could have waited and paid what works out to be $2. They threw it on PS plus. Like I literally at one point got 6 games a month from it

Considering none of you want to pay full price for anything ever, get used to it. I don't see people complaining about how Netflix isn't making DVDs and Blu-ray for their content, or buying physical games even any more. You all wa

You really don't see the benefit of paying USA $60 to rent 24 high quality games a year indefinitely? I mean really? thats almost a $1000 value. I mean literally, you will get more games (and AAA ones too) for pennies. I have PS plus,
