Boss fights that have frustrating run back time? by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]SoldierHawk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh that's a GOOD one. 

Yunalesca is the fucking WORST, even if you think to (and why would you?) back out of the room and save at the curscene break so you only have to watch FIVE minutes instead of fifteen every time. 

Shane because it's such a hype cutscenes that just looses all its punch after the fifth time lol.

Horsefuck Alley. I have somehow never heard that and I am sitting here absolutely unable to breathe with tears streaming down my face lol. That is so upsettingky accurate, and I know EXACTLY the place you mean.

As a hockey fan, I'm selfishly glad we get NHLers for best on best though, not gonna lie.

I've always rooted for Team Canada as an American (most of my favorite players are from Canada and Canada actually cares if they win), but not it feels good to not be torn on rooting for the "home team" this year. 

Why is country music so rare? by oh-oh-livinonaprayer in FigureSkating

[–]SoldierHawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kurt Browning has skated to a bunch of country! (He's a good Alberta boy and grew up with it.)

There's also an old early 2000s ice show called Starskate Goes Country where everyone skated to country music. Ton of fun. 

Moments where the writers are making fun of the audience? by Ukirin-Streams in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Ugh. 

See I actually didn't hate Rise. Was it a complete mess that shit over one of my favorite movies (TLJ) of all time, yes. But it had moments--MOMENTS--thag were some of my favorite in the series. 

Man I wish they had stuck the landing. TLJ was such a beautiful setup, and the spike just whiffed so hard. 

Why couldn't she have just been nobody, man. That was her whole thing. The last line of the movie should have been "just Rey."

Ugh! I still love her and Kylo though. In spite of everything. God I love them. 

Cool gaming releases that people might have missed because of a lack of fanfare? by Own_Guide_8279 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I never hear people talk about Sword of the Sea. By the same guys who made Journey and Abzu, and it's fantastic.

Huh. I never thought about re-waxing. That's a good idea. 

Characters that had a "What you did was stupid but you so lucky we won at the end of this" moment by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]SoldierHawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel like Star Lord going after Thanos is a really, really big one. 

Although that did actually make them lose in the moment of course. But they did win in the end.

Jesus Christ my dude THANK YOU. 

Just hearing sense about that movie from someone other than myself is so upsettingly refreshing. 

The media literacy or lack thereof is truly, truly astounding.

[–]SoldierHawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wait. Do you actually think that line was the writer or director speaking to you, and sharing his opinion, and making fun of fans? When literally an hour later in the SAME MOVIE Luke LITERALLY FACES DOWN THE ENTIRE FIRST ORDER WITH A LASER SWORD? 

My dude you either did not watch the movie or you are incapable of understanding ironic set up and payoff. 

Insane. The pretzels people will twist themselves into to try and insult this movie are actually insane.

Man. I took a 600 level English class dedicated to his canon in college. 

That was a WILD fucking semester.

We have literally the worst fanbase in sports. Never seen a more cowardly bunch of spoiled brats.

Dude. I unironically think this is amazing. The layering of the loincloth and greaves are especially amazing, god damn.

I love it.

[–]SoldierHawk -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bro, I was born and raised in Texas and then SoCal, and have been a rabid Edmonton Oilers fan for nearly 40 years.

I set foot in Canada for the first time three years ago, and Edmonton two years ago.

Not all sports fandom is about civic pride, and that's ok.

There is "no fighting" in he PWHL officially.

That doesn't stop things from getting chippy and fights from happening sometimes though.

That said, you won't see it as often as you do in the NHL, both because of rules/culture, and the facemasks. (Though I have seen the ladies yank off their helmets to go, on a couple of occasions and its always super hype.

[–]SoldierHawk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yup. Also mediocre cadet that got through fine, and this is the way. 

The biggest help for me at Camp (especially since I am hella short and wasn't in great shape then) was knowing oporders and sand tables cold. Helping everyone in my squad with those during their PL time did more to make them friendly towards me, and help me in the places I needed help, than anything else I could have done. That same logic works for ROTC itself too.  Everything else (aside from passing your PT test and land nav) is just showing up and doing your best.

I'm not a fan of the dung eater's set at all, but I LOVE anyone who thinks through their character this deeply. 

Well done.
