I know. I just wanted to.

 

[AlexneushoornTheGreat]

No real answers to yesterday's question either. What is this?

Random question of the day:

Do you hate video game companies' double standards on issues with their games?

 

[Abendrot]

Could you be more specific? What sort of issues are you referring to?

 

[AlexneushoornTheGreat]

Could you be more specific? What sort of issues are you referring to?

Well for example, Rockstar removes some features from GTA Online that are helpful to players, but won't ever patch the glitches that are harmful to players. Or that they try to prevent griefing in Red Dead Online but encourage it in GTA Online.

 

[Abendrot]

Gta Online is entirely greed driven by taketwo. They've been very anti-consumer, like when they'd been banning people for using single player mods and then just straight up lied and denied it. Waste your time elsewhere.

Random question of the day:

What's the meaning of life?

 

[Onmyoji]

42.

 

[crumbelivable]

that's the ultimate answer to life the universe and everything you knob

42.

 

[Idea]

What's the meaning of life?

the condition that distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional activity, and continual change preceding death.
"the origins of life"
existence, being, living, animation, aliveness, animateness; Mais
2.
the existence of an individual human being or animal.

[Idea]

Spoiler: In a more serious note

I am a firm believer that the meaning of life, if there is one, must transcend it. The human quest to understand and improve humanity, and the path to find within that quest the ultimate answer- God- are what I would consider to be the closest to an answer that I've got. Still, I would be lying if I said those are, in any way, the most secure answers to a question I've ever come up with.

 

[AlexneushoornTheGreat]

Not sure if I asked this question already, but here goes.

Random question of the day:

Are you an optimist or a pessimist?

 

[Slav]

I'm definitely a pessimist.

 

[Idea]

I think I'm overall an optimist (often been called an idealist), but the truth is it tends to vary a lot which makes it hard to pin down. I think the best way I can put it is that I tend to be an optmist when it comes to potential- I believe things can be done, that people do have a drive to do good, that one's luck can turn around, that effort can produce good results- but I tend to work under the assumption of things going wrong. In a sentence "Hope for the best, prepare for the worst".

On a sidenote, realistics don't exist. I know nobody had brought them up yet- it's just people bring them up often enough when it comes to this question that I think it appropriate to talk about this anyway.

Random question of the day:

Have you ever been mistaken for an employee of a business somewhere by an entitled customer?

 

[crumbelivable]

Yes, a few times at Value Village some older people have asked me if I work at the place. Even though all the employees wear clearly marked red vests.

 

[Idea]

I have been mistaken for an employee once, but I don't think the customer was 'entitled'.

 

[Onmyoji]

I think once, and it was totally random as my clothes didn't match the store uniform at all, so I'm not sure why that happened.

Random question of the day:

Do you get annoyed when people tell you to look on the bright side of life?

 

[WolfSol]

Yes, because
1. That's a lame cop out. It feels like the person doesn't care or that they think my troubles are irrelevant. I'd rather someone tell me they don't care or they don't know what to say than that.

2. It's easier said than done, and saying it or thinking it won't change things around.

 

[Onmyoji]

No, because it's too minor thing to get annoyed about. In the end I'll look at whatever side of life I want.

 

[Idea]

No, because they are trying to cheer me up. It’s not an ill-intended thing to say. It’s not something people repeat ad nauseam unless they are singing that Monthy Python song. And it’s a good thing, to be able to be grateful for the good things in life, rather than being squashed by the negatives.

In short I see no real reason why I would get mad.

Random question of the day:

What tv show has had the most cast changes so far?

 

[Idea]

Uh...no idea. Game of Thrones maybe?

 

[scorpiodragon]

The TV show with the most cast changes so far? Hmm....

Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman-A lot of the actors in the pilot, such as Mr. Bray (Guy Boyd in the Pilot/Orson Bean-series), Jake Slicker (Colm Meany-pilot/Jim Knobeloch-series ), Robert E (Ivory Ocean-Pilot/Henry G. Sanders-rest of series), Colleen (Erika Fores-Seasons 1-3/Jessica Bowman-Seasons 3, 4, 5, & 6), Anthony (Robert and Grace's adoptive son-Brendan Jefferson-Season 4/Brandon Hammond-Seasons 5 & 6),Elizabeth Quinn (Michaela's mother-Mary Gregory-Pilot/Jane Wyman-The Visito which was Season 1 Ep. 3/Georgann Johnson-For Better or Worse which was Season 3 Ep. 25, When A Child Is Born Parts 1 & 2 Season 4 Ep. 26 & Ep. 27, A Time To Heal Parts 1 & 2 which is Season 6 Ep. 8 & Ep. 9, and the Dr. Quinn tv movie Dr Quinn Medicine Woman: The Heart Within). There were quite a few other cast changes, in fact numerous cast changes throughout the six seasons of this 90s show.

Off the top of my head, this is the only series that I can think of.
