I just want to state for those from resetera reading this thread while diligently scrolling past the walls of text, that you are free to use the word bitch here without penalty or harsh judgement.
And its tearing me apart!Me and my gf have been in a relationship since 2 years and we love each other very much. With great difficulty we got her parents to at least start thinking of me as future son-in-law and all. We have this practice here in India where the families go to astrologers and based on your birth place and time and shit they predict if this is a good match. There were some issues mentioned by the astrologers earlier but they were also saying they will be solved by some rituals etc. Now suddenly all astrologers have started saying that if we get married I will die within 6 months and what not and hence this cant be done and there is no solution. Her parents have now freaked out and effectively refused to get us married. After a lot of melodrama, to me it looks like she might also give up as her parents are doing lots of emotional drama. This is killing me as I had imagined my whole life with her and its as if my life is shattering in front of me. I showed to 2-3astrologers and all of them are saying the same thing now.Never thought this shit would happen to me. I am going through hell right now. At least I am glad people in western countries dont have to deal with this bullshit.
Update-Just a little update. After a week (during which I was genuinely happy. Not because of us talking but simply because I decided to focus on other things. I was going out with friends, meeting new people) or so of talking in the most fun and jovial way, yesterday I finally decided to ask where this thing was going to head. She said that she didnt think there was much possibility of her parents agreeing and that she was going trying to show it to a couple of more astrologers and let me know. Since I knew what they are going to say and since I dont see her actually trying to wrestle it out with her parents, I just told her that she should only call me if there was a positive news, or never call me again as there was nothing more that I could say that I hadnt and that would change her mind. Post that we havent talked.It was the only thing I could do somwhat maturely. I wanted to explode in anger and arguments about how stupid this is, but I decided to remain calm and just ended it. Did I do the right thing?
I do not care enough with the word bitch, 200% because in my day to day no one will think lesser of me because I say the word bitch and I kinda care about how the people I actually talk to and care for think of me, more than random internet people.
GAF, Astrology is killing my relationship and proposed marriage!
B-word? jesus fucking christ bitches

Is he a proud lion or a pride of lions?
Guys, check this Gamecritics podcast:https://gamecritics.com/brad-gallaway/gamecritics-radio-so-videogames-ep-78/They talked about God of War and they were like "best game of the year? Ahahahah". They also laughed when one on them said that it would get a 7 or something.This is nothing more than a clickbait website, that keeps trashing on games just for pure fun and clicks.5 to Uncharted 4, 6 to MGS V, 6.5 to Horizon, 6.5 to Persona 5, 6.5 to NieR Automata, 6 to Uncharted TLL, 7 to Bloodborne. The list goes on and on...How is even possible that Metacritic is still colaborating with them, or Sony sending them review copies?We should do something. I've already done my part, reported this to Sid Shuman (Sony) and Metacritic.Do whatever you can to prevent this website from doing this over and over.
Look what they gave Zelda and Mario and you'll understand what's going on here.
Is it just me, or do these two strips have a conservative bent to them? The first one seems like the standard "lazy millennial" argument, while the second seems to downplay the role of conservative Twitter bots.
This thread is hurting for people to bully. Cookie Monster banished to Twitter, Finale Fireworker stopped posting embarrassing screeds because of us. LionPride is such a lame target in comparison. How far we've fallen.
one day Jansen will bathe us all in the blood of destruction and we will meet God, willing lambs or not
Y'all are some bitch ass niccas
Oh shit, Hydrophilic Attack said to Lionpride what we've all been thinking.https://www.resetera.com/posts/6964878/
nothing racist at all about invoking comparisons to the n-word in a thread that already singles out hip-hop for what is a larger societal problem, nothing at all.
Wonder what that bitch Cream thinks about these bitches
https://www.resetera.com/posts/6965962/
It's like, yes, we all get the underlying hypocrisy in it. But how can you ever have a discussion without having your guard up when that is point one so often? No one knows better than the peoppe who consume it that hip hop has problems. But what I cant do is fuel a discussion aboit something that is ultimately a societal issue to the point lots of people are alreadu saying "yes I say it its normalized" into, "how can you say bitch but not want anyone to say nicca".It comes across as tone death (at best)
