Looking for advice

I concur. Scientifically proven to aid with attention and other junk. Not sure if Cannibal Corpse counts though.

Tomb of the Mutilated has actually been used to train chimpanzees in an experiment I just made up!

Also, if people don’t like this, they might just hate music

PS: can you tell I like Prog??

I’m 29 Ninja so you’re not that much younger than I am. At work I work as a cashier and I get about 2 days off a week but everyone always sees me there both employees and customers so when the customers ask if I ever go home I joke with them and tell them that I live on the job. When I’m ready to go to bed I just go and sleep in the fridge.

To what? Jerk each other?

They just walked around constantly saying ā€œAvoiding the prophecy of my new found lust,You will never live again, soon your life will end, I’ll see you die at my feet, eternally I smash your face, facial bones collapse as I crack your skull in halfā€

Edit: sorry, we’ve well and truly derailed this now…

Pretty advanced stuff. Kudos.

All right lunch is over - I gotta get back to work. You can have your thread back.

YES is a great band. Prog you say? So, Dream Theater?

Aside from them spelling theatre wrong, yes. Although I like the more classic prog more, I must say.

@bigbroobi Here is some advice to get back on topic.

Self-reliance. Nietzsche was very big on self-reliance. This is especially relevant in an age besotted with psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists, life-coaches, gurus, consultants, etc. Even in the late 19th century Nietzsche recognized that people were becoming increasingly dependent on the magical advice of experts, institutions, the state etc, and he criticized a popular self-help book (yes, they had self-help books even then) that promised health and a long life based on a special diet. Nietzsche incisively recognized the flaw with this one-size-fits-all approach to the problems of life: it works for the person giving the advice, and people of similar temperament, but it doesn’t work for everybody. He also exposed the difficult issue of the cause-and-effect of happiness: does good living lead to happiness, or does a happy person automatically live a good life suited to his temperament?

I’m not saying that modern experts have nothing valuable to say, but I am simply pointing out the danger of distrusting one’s own mind and relying too much on the ā€˜wisdom’ of others. Nietzsche emphasized the uniqueness of an individual’s path and asked people to find themselves first, while cautioning against excessive trust in self-designated experts. In practice, this means that an individual must really get to know himself or herself, but first and foremost to have true self-confidence in one’s judgment. This sounds easy but requires a lot of psychological strength and insight. And with a plethora of self-help books, programs, workshops, etc, promising everything from a perfect memory to enormous wealth, it might prove difficult to listen to your own voice in the din of idealized advice.

On another note, Nietzsche also recognized that religious people might rely excessively on their deity. Now, I’m not recommending that religious people instantly disown their religion, but I agree with Nietzsche that sometimes people can expect inordinately much of their heavenly father while neglecting to do the necessary work to achieve their goals. Expecting God to solve our problems for us free-of-charge might be even worse than leaning on his created mortals; this attitude of ā€˜let God do the work’ is more widespread than you realize, especially in religious countries, and is one unfair argument atheists use against god-believers. But the truth of the matter is that God only helps those who help themselves.

To Nietzsche, what counted was the realization of one’s individual destiny, and not blind obedience to the herd. As we shall we see further on in this article, this doesn’t mean that it’s okay to do whatever you want. One of Nietzsche’s so-called ā€˜granite’ sentences (granite here is a metaphor for strength and solidity) sums up the goal of the thinking individual:

ā€œWhat does your conscience say? You should become him (or her) who you areā€.

Lesson: Rely on your mind and action and don’t expect others, including a deity, to solve your problems for you.

I have no idea what that has to do with borderlands and I’ve got some mental issues so I’m severely limited mentally on what I can take in mind. I understand the topic for this thread is I need advice, but as this is a thread regarding borderlands 2 I kind of thought that needing advice would remain related to borderlands 2. Sorry not saying it’s bad advice just saying I’ve got a derailed train of thought and that’s too much of a deep logical read for me to understand.

Don’t worry man, I posted it as a bit of a joke anyway. No offence was intended if you took any?

Nah in all honesty I didn’t read past the first paragraph because I couldn’t contemplate what it was trying to say

That’s fine. Back on topic though, i’m interested to hear some Gaige input, since she’s probably the Vault Hunter I like the least in all 3 games.


This might help ya. :wink:

This is Gaige-oriented, kind of…

I ended up using something really similar with my end game build with Gaige. I also spent about 9 hours over three days farming a twister to compliment it, hahaha. Had a tediore grip too, which was perfect for staying away from moxxi guns since the passive healing was pretty much always going.

Thank you very much. I had no idea what the fastest method of doing this was either.

That is quite far from the fastest way. According to the wiki,

"One easy way (done in any order):

Ground Lever (once)
Wall Switch (once)
Television (twice)"

I never said it was quickest, just a pattern that I remember for some reason :slight_smile:
