Yes, he crossed a line, shattering trust in a way that can't ever be truly rectified, and thus also the foundation of relationship.

Reply to comment by pdxscout in TIFU by tripping on shrooms and running naked to ask people to call 911 by ExistentialQ
When I was 10 I had appendicitis. After intense stomach pain all day my mom, a nurse, took me to the ER. The doctors also dismissed after a brief examination because I wasn’t crying and looked normal. Luckily my mom is stubborn and refused to leave, or I might have died.
Long story short dismissing based on lack of pain without proper tests can be dangerous.

People say fucked up shit when they're having sex. One time I called this girl mom.

Reply to comment by HurrySad4253 in TIFU at a strip club involving drugs and massive credit card charges. by HurrySad4253
I had this happen to me as well awhile back. Just made my own thread about it in r/legaladvice sub. Except no drugs. Just was intoxicated when I stepped into the club and lead to the back not knowing what was going on. Before I knew it, I had signed a contract for $2800 plus the girl scammed me $800 thru Venmo and cash out of my pocket. While they were still serving me, and I was intoxicated and not myself when signing.

Seems uptight if he was really mad. If it was me on the receiving end I would've lol-ed. Not fair to blame you if you don't know japanese

Reply to comment by Ratatattat44 in TIFU by forgetting about my home warranty for a whole month by Embarrassed_Band_512
Hey there, just had a home inspection done. It was great. Now we know what kind of repairs to ask for in the contract before closing. He pointed out everything that may or may not be a concern in order from most hazardous to least. I don’t know jack shit about home repairs, what a lender requires, and what kind of stuff needs to be addressed sooner rather then later. Hell, before this inspection I didn’t even know that “crickets “ were a thing for chimneys.

Fair enough. I’ll still keep the post up tho.
Edit: This is simply for me just to vent. I’m not exactly looking for advice here and I do not expect everyone to know what I am talking about. I just want to get the point across that I did something wrong and allow for personal growth.

The mtg subs are literally full of people with enough context to understand the situation. Non-mtg players have no idea what is going on. They have never been to a Commander Friday Night Magic.
An unqualified opinion may be unbiased, but is also based on ignorance. You wouldn't ask the general population for medical advice. You would ask medical professionals.
The only bias that mtg folk have that random gen pop folk don't is the bias of experience and knowledge of mtg and mtg culture.
If you truly want to know what a bunch of mtg players think (as this is the community that is relevant), ask them. What does it matter what non-mtg players think? You won't be sitting across from them at a table.

I do agree with you on the closeness to cEDH. It currently has a power rating of 8 (preventing cEDH is staples like dockside, ad naus, and mana rocks)I also have 5 decks on me at different power levels. I knew to pick that deck when there was a markov, an ivy, and a simic pairing.
And as far as the interaction comment goes, that was why I apologized after realizing I was wrong.
DKGroove t1_je8e28i wrote
As someone who plays magic here is some feedback:
Your deck is closer to C-EDH than not. Thoracle with demonic consultation is THE example combo for it. Adding in more than about four tutors REALLY sets you up as CEDH. For a casual game you can still have the combo in your deck just don’t use it so early. Also trying to say everyone should have interaction by turn three just doesn’t make sense. Some decks don’t even come online until they have all five colors out (usually turn 3 or 4 is the mark for that).
The players you were up against also need to grow the hell up. It’s a game. They can be bitter but it should be over that night. Them bringing it up almost a week later is SHITTY.
My sage wisdom is build the deck you want (put Wheel of Fortune and Thoracle back in) and just remember to have your rule 0 conversation before the game. Ask how hard they’re playing, what turn they can win on, and their opinion on infinites. That will save you heartache; if they say they’re playing hard and really good then pull out this deck, if they say they’re playing battle cruiser magic then pick a slower deck. It’s why I always bring like 5 decks to my LGS

You’re not wrong, but I feel this sub would have a more unbiased opinion rather than the MtG subs.

You expect OP to only speak the person's language if he's fluent? Everyone starts somewhere. Half assed doesn't even make sense in this context when the guy just learned something for the first time from said language

People are sore losers, and it’s one of my pet peeves. I had 0 open mana so I was fucked if thassa got countered. Not to mention there was an ivy, markov, and a simic pairing so the power levels were matched.

I know it's a "casual" EDH tournament (imo that's an oxymoron but we can talk about that later) but the second you said everyone else started dropping their own infinite combos their saltiness was invalidated for me.
As a combo/lock player myself I understand the hate, but it's not like they were running suboptimal or pre-constucted decks. Also not to mention a single counterspell, ability counter, or draw spell targeting you loses you the game. They didn't have answers and you drew the nuts... welcome to mtg boys.
Sometimes people are just sore losers.

Well the commander is Inalla. I have never netdecked and will never do that. I run 9 counter spells to cover my moves.

No fuck up. You should not have to walk on eggshells around your friends. I know I got a true friend if they pick on me a little. It's all good fun. You apologized already that's enough. If it's a huge deal probably not worth pursuing as a friend.

Dude, don't post stuff like this in r/tifu. The vast majority of people have no clue what you're talking about and don't care enough to read your wall of text.
This belongs in the mtg subs.
Setzael t1_je8cwy3 wrote
People hate combo decks.
People hate netdeckers at casuals.
If you're going to be playing anything with blue, brace yourself for that and own it haha!
Seriously though, decks like that are why I only play Commander now

It's also slang for masturbation.
