I want the full porkonomic theory to be outlined. What is the exact lifetime dollar amount you're allowed to earn? Making a lot of money sounds nice but I need to make sure I don't accidentally not earn any of the money I make

 

[AprilRains]

He's trying to do some "you can only make it via investments, not actual labor" but he's still wrong; sports stars are getting quite close to billion dollar contracts, and some are making over $250m a year. That's genuine income for effort, earned income.

And this from the man who can't finish and sell a book in five years, whose lazy slovenliness is a byword in the industry, who can't even put up a damn fence right. I don't think Fatrick gets to throw that particular stone.

The Technicality Tomlinson will be that they *make* that much, but they don't earn it since no job is really worth that much and they're all overpaid.

I'm sure they mean no real life harm but gaining access to his property under false pretences just to troll him online is pushing it.

It's probably on shaky grounds at best, but I don't really care. It's nothing to get bent out of shape about. Yes, if you do this here, you'll be instabanned, but OnA isn't here. We need our special rules because we have hundreds of threads and piss off possibly millions of people on a daily basis. If we routinely gave them legal ammunition we'd be assfucked in zero time.

It's not like they're doing the shit that they do to Daniel Larson and Joshua Block where they're fucking with his life up close and in person and doing shit like chasing Block into traffic. That's seriously fucked up.

Unless they really did do the swatting shit (which I do not believe for a second), all of the shit the pests do is pretty harmless. I can't work up so much as a morsel of indignation about it.

Also I'm not even sure this is illegal. Maybe he could sue this person and bar them from the property. Anyone can refuse service. But if you open your property to the paying public and then a member of that public pays you and you voluntarily take that money and let them in, well, that's kind of on you.

I think it would be a tricky case either way. It's much like the Hoolie's lolsuit Rick filed, where someone obviously is allowed to go to Hoolie's but was also obviously doing it to annoy him.

 

[TurboNAS]

I could have sworn Pat denied having an AirBNB for the longest time and he never admitted to it directly and now sort of silently admits it? Like he says "you never stayed here stalker" or tells Boomia if he comes in the property he will be incapacitated, not denying that he runs one.

my memory is that this was a discovery by the pests and came out of left field. I don’t remember what caused them to look but suddenly they found the listing and things took off from there.

They’ve been threatening to visit for a while and Patrick says he’ll hold them immobile because he’s a creep. Looks like we have a couple visits now with nothing happening to the pests.

Sorry Rick, the idiots won this one.

 

[AprilRains]

Why is this even our concern? We didn't do it. We didn't ask them to do it. They didn't hurt anyone, but even if they had, what can we do about it?

We're here to point and laugh. This is stuff worth laughing about.

Genuinely curious about how he thinks this would go down.
The conservative/anti-government narrative has always been:
>tyrannical government rises
>armed civilians form militias
>defeat said government in a guerilla war because they outnumber the military and can easily disrupt food supplies and infrastructure
But what's Rick's angle? Left-wing gun owners are few and far between. In fact, the party line is decidedly anti-gun. Military rank-and-file lean right. By Pat's own admission, the "tyrannical government" is already here, so what now?

 

[Well Intentioned]

Despite their foolishness, they are either noble, honorable knights with high calling, or rustic peasants.

Fatrick is an Ogre from the Ogre kingdom with Nikki serving as his personal hobbit chef.

See, I was thinking Ogres, but (again to my limited knowledge) are at least formidable opponents and in demand as mercenaries.

But peasant whose entire way of life is defined by being trolled seemed more apt.

A small group of 4-6 plucky minorities (and one of the "good" whites) repeatedly frustrates the agenda of the fascists while dropping snarky one-liners, duh. You seem to be ignorant of how this works, child.

Everything he says and does is purely performative. He says he's 'conservative' but he doesn't actually believe in anything remotely resembling conservatism, he just appropriated the word to make himself sound unique among his peers (who probably laugh behind his back for it), he says he's for guns, but he wants to confiscate them, he likes cars but doesn't have the manual skills to do work on his own, etc.

Plus, he's the kind of guy who buys Surface laptops and Samsung phones. No-one sane wants to associate with him.

The left have spent the last decade+ telling Conservatives "what's your pickup truck going to do against an F-15" and trying to ban anything more dangerous than a peashooter, but now apparently ICE (?) can be fought off by armed trannies, assuming they don't shoot themselves instead. It's all very odd.

Patrick, on the other hand, holds whatever position he thinks makes him sound the most badass. That's why he's vagueposting about checking the batteries on his TEMU tacticool accessories. He thinks it makes him look like a dangerous, manly dude who shouldn't be messed with. The big problem with this strategy is that he gets messed with anyway and just resorts to more empty threats and posturing like a glitched NPC. The Brothermen called his bluff by touring his AirBnB despite being threatened with all sorts of things if they were to ever try. Pat is totally incapable of updating his strategy in the face of a setback. I'm pretty sure all those badass Sun Tsu books he claims to have read don't say "in the event of a humiliating defeat, just try the exact same strategy again", but then I'm not a badass son of a rodeo clown.

All Pat has to do to make this entire thing stop is to tweet "OK guys, can we call a truce? This has gone too far and has hurt innocent people. Norm MacDonald was funny." There we go, that would end it pretty much straight away. But he can't, he won't. It doesn't look badass. And despite the fact he has always failed to look badass and his attempts to do so have ruined his life, he will just try again.

I know what you mean, but the Ogres are fat, stupid, gluttonous, and cannibalistic.

The Breton peasants are expected to do their duty by the nobles or out of a sense of devotion to their religion. Even if the religion is based on a "troll" as you say, it's not really a nice clear cut and insulting comparison.
It's just basically the same as saying that Patrick is a medieval peasant, rather than a slobbering humanlike creature.
Peasants get an unfairly bad reputation. Granted 99% of them never left the village or surrounding farmlands that they were born in, except maybe to go to another nearby village or a local castle, couldn't read, and thought stained glass windows were literal magic, but being a peasant meant one had to have multiple skillsets.
They were obviously primarily farmers, but also had to be competent in maintenance of their tools and living places, skilled enough fishermen, hunters and gatherers if harvests were bad, and to supplement shortages of fresh meat in the winter, understand crop rotation, how to make charcoal, managing woodlands, and have some understanding of combat in case they were drafted or had to defend their own villages from raiders or bandits. The "Takes a village" saying refers also in part to the various skills peasants had to understand just to live year to year.
Being banished from one's village was usually a death sentence and was reserved for the fuckers who refused to muck in and contribute.
I have no specific understanding of how they treated their disabled, but there are mentions of things like blind fletchers (arrow makers effectively), so presumably even people with physical disabilities were found and encouraged in tasks they could specialize in.
Breton peasants presumably would live similar lives as the Breton lands are the same sort of environment as France or Southern England, with the added dimension of actual inhuman beasts wandering the lands.

Ogres are not always good at fighting through talent, it is just their mass, bulk and stupidity which makes many of them dangerous. In the recent editions, having a Halfling/Hobbit chef is seen as the ultimate sign of Ogre wealth, as they are just food obsessed and crude.

Fatrick absolutely would be a danger to smaller weaker people, probably does bully Niki into remaining with him, and is happy to sit on his fat arse guzzling pepperoni, meatloaf and beer.

Sorry for the autistic defense of Peasants, but it is insulting to our ancestors to compare them even remotely to the epitome of modern-day spoiled living.

You could just say you're a Bretonnia player.

But I was speaking specifically in the context of Warhammer Fantasy, not IRL. Again, my understanding of Breton peasants is limited and that they're treated worse than horses. Anyway, enough autism about a game I know fairly little about.
