If you would rather wait for your LRMs to come off cooldown than fire your lasers at an enemy right in front of you, when you're at 0 heat... you might be a potato.

If you carry 1 machine gun with 2 tons of ammo... you might be a potato.

If you only have 2 lasers, but chain-fire them... you might be a potato.

Am I the only one that prefers powdered mashed potatoes over the real deal?

Honestly, I find most mashed potatoes gross. Which is weird - I love everything potato except for that. And potato salad.

When forced though, I too prefer powdered. The consistency is more... well, consistent.

Powdered mashed potatoes and skinless boiled potatoes are honestly the only "potato" I like outside of something HEAVILY processed like french fries and the like.

Your fixation on tin foil is starting to make me uncomfortable. How large is your tin foil meme library?

good mashed potatoes are the real deal.

Nice and lumpy and full of buttermilk ranch, sour cream, chives, a little cheese and bacon.....and gotta have chunks of peel throughout.....

That's just sad. I love baked potatoes, scalloped potatoes, fried potatoes, french fries, potato hash, potato skins, potato wedges, sweet potato pie, sweet potatoes, red potatoes, baking potatoes, purple potatoes...

I'm a potato lover.

'shrugs' I just can't stand potato skins. Same reason I have trouble eating things like oranges and the like. Can't stand trying to chew on them.

What irony? My "anti-LRM" hate speech triggered you so you decided to go and blow it up to some grandiose issue about telling people how they must play the game. This is literally all about you getting bent out of shape over a comment about how I don't really care about some great game somebody had with LRMs and being irritated about players ignoring the game mode. This is all you not being able to handle my complaining, because its somehow telling people how to play.

Its like when I complain about all the political jousting on Facebook, I'm not telling people they can't do it, I'm just saying I don't like it.

...You're not supposed to eat the orange peel. That's why it's called a peel - You peel it off.

No, with the orange I'm talking about the white on the inside. Can never get that stuff down.

people who find mashed potatos gross need to find a better cook. people under cook them, and dont use enough butter or too much milk, and never the right amount of salt. you get the factors under control and things start to come out good. powdered spuds always feel like eating paste.

though i dont do potato salad. i mean you have one of the most versatile tubers on the planet, and what do you do, cut it in to cubes and pour every condiment in the fridge over it? really? nobody wants to eat that. people who use an entire jar of mayo on one side dish disturb me.
