What reason to you, is a reason to drop a friend for?

I had some "friends" that ended up being two of the most toxic people I've ever known. They intentionally try and learn dirt on other people in the group to soak drama. They were also new swingers and they were constantly trying to sleep with everyone in the friend group by initiating in the creepiest way not taking no easily as an answer.

I had a "friend" who turned out to be a super aggressive bully any time he didn't get his way. I worked with the guy and he got super hostile and weird at work when I couldn't solve an IT problem for him. No apology, ever. He just kept doubling down.

I have more stories but learning that you don't have to put up with everyone is an amazing tool in your social toolbox that no one teaches you.

God of War Ragnarök Launches to ‘Mixed’ Steam User Reviews — With Most Complaining About the PlayStation Network Account Requirement

So I bought it knowing I had to make an account. I knew I was caving to a shitty requirement. Before you even get to a main menu the game unceremoniously launches your browser while sitting at a black screen. On your browser you are expected to sign into your Playstation(R) Account. I tried. I tried and tried. An error kept popping up stating "can't connect to server."

In that moment I decided on a refund. You want me to sign into an account for a single player game? Fine. I caved and I did, but their servers weren't ready for a re-launch of a huge game to service a restriction Sony placed on themselves.

I'll buy it again when there is a mod to remove the account requirement.

The Amazing Man-Spider

Funny enough there is a very similar episode of the X-Files where a monster gets bitten by a human and during the day he turns into Rhys Darby with a strong urge to get a job. It was one of the only good episodes of the season IMHO.
