Case closed, boys

I’ve never seen the movie. Is the Chihuahua, by chance, from Beverly Hills?

Slightly off topic, but it just dawned on me that the youngest generation might not have as universal of a childhood compared to some before.

Like, everyone in school knew what SpongeBob was. Maybe you didn’t have a TV or you didn’t like watching it, but you knew the characters and the general gist of what happens in the show.

With kids on such giant platforms like YouTube, there’s so much variety, I wonder if the “brand recognition” will be as strong in 10 years.

That’s rough buddy. Time to get a fake identity and open an account in a different state with stricter banking laws

Your current one as in, your credit union is the one charging you these “insufficient fund” fees?

I’m admittedly not educated in the law of banks and credit unions, but I have a feeling they aren’t meant to be doing that… not that the little man like you or I could do much about it 🤷🏾‍♂️

Just curious. Why not just get a different bank or credit union?

The irony is that I was being sarcastic and you didn’t understand the sarcasm of me arguing that I know what you ment better than yourself

Are you sure that your little brother didn’t send it from your phone? 😂 Christ buddy. You have a good one too.

Well I’ll just see myself out then.

Comment updated. Thanks. Sorry.

OOF.

Based on the rest of their comments in the thread, I’m sure it wasn’t intentional, they probably had no idea of the origins and meanings

Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. Probably should’ve clicked when my phone graciously tried to save me with autocorrect, but I was typiiiing.

Original comment updated.

Well, who’s fault is that now, really?

Once again, you’re the only one that seems to be having an issue getting what I said. Seems more a you problem.

Just take the L and move on dude. It’s really not that big of a deal. It’s ok to make mistakes. I don’t really care that you tried checking me on language I used to describe myself, like I said it happens all the time, but this constant badgering is kinda sad. I’d already completely forgotten this entire interaction happened by the time I opened every single one of your responses. It’s not that serious.

I’m not being judgemental. I literally told you to continue using and disliking words as you saw fit. You’re the only one that seems upset.

Yeah, dandruff was an unfair blow. I just figured if I was going for a standard 4chinner insult, it almost made it better.

If the OOP is actually real I don’t actually think they’re a fedora warrior.

Awesome highlighting.

Thank you! A bit of advice that has stuck in my head re: highlights is, always take it one step further than you think you need to; if you think the 3rd shade lighter looks good, 4 will look great, 5 will be too much.

I was happy at around layer 4 for the front, so I started bringing some bits to almost pure white. I don’t know if pure white was too bright, if I didn’t think it enough, or if I started getting sloppy with my brush strokes, but those pure white spots (circles below) were so distracting to me that I just skipped the last highlight on his back.

I wanted to challenge myself to not copy a premade color scheme, aiming to create my own to hone my eye. After this, I think it’s a little too early for me to try to make my own pallets entirely from scratch for all of my figures, but for random minis and throwaway figurines that I don’t have any attachment to, well, I think it looks better than it did in gray!

Your Pikachu example has me wanting to paint something in that color scheme, though. I’m picturing a dark golden brown cape with a bright gold fringe and yellow underside. Normal iron/ silver armor, but with yellow highlights, and a yellow skirt, some ruby red studs, a traces of black detailing here and there. He might even have a trident with electric arcs between the poky bits.

I roll with disadvantage every time I try to avoid people being offended on my behalf for comments I make about myself. Such is my curse as a sarcastic biracial man in modern America.

Awesome! According to me, the person I was talking about, “being cursed with a hint melanin” is an obvious in-joke to other black or mixed people. I’ll keep describing myself however I like, and you do the same!

According to…?

If it makes you feel any better, a large person walking with a scary dog seems much less likely to be a psychopath than just a large person by themselves (to me, at least).

Obviously not to say that large people are psychopaths 😂 just that someone with an animal they’re caring for doesn’t strike me as someone who is going to attack me.

I’ve never even considered this perspective before. It’s frustrating enough for guys to get lumped in with shitty guys, but to be a woman lumped in with shitty guys, that’s gotta be aggravating as hell.

I’d wager you’re probably right, though; you’ve probably got a better buffer against weirdos than a dainty little flower might.

Thanks! Your comment painted a very vivid picture for me and I wanted to have fun with it.
