you said it yourself that it's predictable and useless, so

why would you want to have a predictable and useless move

i sure wouldn't

(especially when it's actually neither of those things)

Honestly how many times have you been KO'd from 0 damage by a Little Mac KO punch?
that's really not the point

how often are you at 0% for extended periods of time

lol at people disliking the KO punch. It's soooo predictable and easy to avoid it's almost entirely useless.
let's just give everyone a free KO move, then, because they'd all be predictable and useless

let's have predictable and useless tactics gais

see, any angle you look at it, it's a shitty move that shouldn't exist

Either Roy sucks, or I suck, but Roy isn't even fun to play, I'm sad to report. He feels like Shulk--awkward, clunky, and he has the most godawful neutral-A I've ever seen. Not to mention, much of the properties of all his attacks have not carried over from Melee at all (namely his down-tilt not propelling his opponent upward anymore, which SUCKS). I could learn to adapt, but it's gonna be a slog.

I do appreciate that they made him a semi-clone, though, rather than an all-out clone.

Can we PM submissions for the next one? I've got a couple I think you'll like.
Never thought about that. Neat idea. Go for it.

Bonus points if it's a word I don't already know.

I didn't see a thread about them, but I just splurged and bought all of the Smash DLC, and I have no one to talk about these characters with, so.

Ryu is godlike. SO fun to play. I expected him to be a little awkward because of how they designed him, but it's actually quite fluid, and as a Street Fighter player, I adore the fact that they retained many of his combos from that game.

Haven't tried Roy yet, but I'm super excited to (he was my main in Melee, after all).

Haven't tried Lucas yet, but I don't really care to. lol

Also, is that really how you pronounce those Latin words in English? Because that sounds really awkward.

Pretty sure that the more popular meaning of the word cuckold is not someone who is just being cheated on, but who is actually aware of it and approves / lets it happen to some extent.
Like Stephen Hawking? Hmm, haven't heard it used like that before. I'll take your word for it. It's definitely not a common word outside of the shitternet.

Back from E3 edition. I knew I wasn't gonna be able to do these every day, but I think this works better anyway. No gimmicks this time--the general plan was to have at least one or two words that one would be able to use in a regular conversation without looking like a weirdo, and those are always rather tricky to think of. I got a fine slew of them this time around.




Videlicet - /vih - DEL - eh - seht/
[viz] [viz.]
From the Latin videre licet, meaning "it is permitted to see".

Perhaps you've seen the abbreviated form of this word used before--"viz". "Videlicet" is its full orthography. It's simply a fancier Latin way of saying "namely" or "particularly": My wallet contains two kinds of currency, viz. coins and bills. Nowadays, it's totally superfluous, given that the term's purpose can be replicated easily with a special punctuation mark, videlicet the colon (:), but it remains one of my favorite words to this day simply because of the way it looks and sounds.



Effervescent - /EFF - er - VES - ent/
[effervesce] [effervescing] [effervesced] [effervesces] [effervescence]
From the Latin ferverscere, meaning to "begin to boil".

For those of you who still drink soda or other carbonated beverages, you know effervescence very well. The fizz that emits from the can once opened is effervescent--or, in other words, "bubbly". And just as the word "bubbly" can also be used to describe a very happy, energetic, or chipper individual, effervescent can be used to describe that person, too. I also like to use it as a verb, as in: She entered the room with vivacious gusto, effervescing the premises until almost everyone was smiling. Only use it to describe people who are sickeningly excitable.



Cuckold - /CUCK - uhld/
[cuckolds] [cuckolded] [cuckolding] [cuckolded] [cuckoldry]
From the Old French cucu, meaning "cuckoo" (bird).

...I'm not sure if the Internet knows what this word means, or not. The shortening "cuck" seems to be a word to describe either of two things on the Internet: 1.) Anything the Internet does not like, or 2.) A traitor, or metaphorical adulterer.

In actuality, a cuckold is the victim of adultery, not the adulterer. My hapless friend was cuckolded two years ago after his ex-girlfriend cheated on him. He is now a cuckold. However, the term itself is often associated in modern times with a sexual fetish wherein a submissive male enjoys the thought of being cheated on.

I don't know why this word is being used in such a strange way lately, but it makes me wonder about people sometimes.



If you're wondering about what the real term is for someone who commits adultery, look here:
Spoiler
"Cunt".
