    I'm happy the furry community means so much to you and was there for you when you needed it. I'm not a furry and I don't know anyone IRL who is (although I wish I did) but I do follow 1 or 2 on Twitter and they seem like good people. I used to cosplay and I have mad respect for those that make their own fursuits. I've seen so many awesome looking ones at anime conventions and every furry I've interacted with was very friendly. 

     

    I feel sorry for you guys because the media loves to portray furries in such a negative light. Honestly though, I feel like every fandom/community has those people who make the rest look bad.

    You only get on average 1% back on purchases, so it'd take like 100K to get back 1000 in points and I've heard most people don't even use their free airline miles. I mean technically wouldn't you save money if you got rid of the card, didn't have the payment period and used that money on something else? I mean besides points what advantage does a credit card have over a debt card or cold hard cash? Genuinely interested in your pov. 

    I have Chase Sapphire and get 2X points for dining and travel. Within the last year, I've traveled quite a bit (Norway, Japan, AZ, NY, etc) and the card has been great for this. Besides the fact that it's thick and weighted and feels nice to hold, it's been pretty good to me for the travel purpose. I pay for airfare, hotel, food, and everyone else just gives me their share but then it's like the entire purchase is put on the card even though not all of that is mine but I'm getting all the points for it. I currently have 98,000 points which I could cash in for $980 or redeem it for airfare and get an additional 25% out of it.  I'm holding on to it for now because I won't be going anywhere anytime soon (with Corona virus and all).

     

    I do have a debit card, but I rarely use that now because I don't get points with it. To answer your question: to me, there's really no advantage other than accumulating points/cash back. There's no real difference if I used my debit card or my credit card. Both end up pulling money from my checking account. With the debit card, that money is obviously pulled right away, but with the credit card, I just end up pulling what I charged on the credit card all in one payment at the end of the month. 

     

    Sorry I feel like im rambling at this point lmao. So basically the reason I got my current credit card is because it's weighted and not paper thin and 2x points for food/travel.

    the average American has at least 4 credit cards active at any given time and upwards of $15K in debt.

    I never understood why my friends have like 4-6 active credit cards. If I don't have money to buy something, I'm not buying it.

     

    I have 1 card and I use it for EVERYTHING to rack up the points. I pay it off every month and refuse to ever be in debt. The credit limit on it is only $8,300.

    Debt scares me and Idk how my friends can just continue on like they're not drowning in it.

    @Mihenno Yeah. The fact that the "dpad" is those set of 4 buttons, thumb will wear out fast. You're right, it's time to live right.

     

    Do you own an OEM pro controller or third party? I always trust products from the official company (and it's currently on sale on amazon), but this SNES themed one looks really tempting:

    Edit: I caved and bought the one pictured. I couldn't help it since I found it for just under $40 😅

     

    This is the one I have

    Anyone tried playing fighting games on the switch? I saw that MK 11 had a huge discount so bought that last night (still downloading though, 25G and taking 8 hours!)

     

    The joycons don't strike me as a controller designed for fighting games so I was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience.

    P.S. I heard the pro controller is better, so I'm considering getting one of those.

     

    Pro Controller is a good investment for those games that seem like the joycons would be a nightmare to use.

    I would never play Zelda or even Dark Souls without the Pro Controller. I haven't played any fighting games on the switch, but I'd rather have the pro controller to use than anything else. You should really get one.
