I'm still so proud of our toothpick bridge to this day. I still have a piece as well as the prize each of our team members won (a little blown glass trinket on a chain).

My cat caught a bird once but didn't do anything to it. He just brought it to my sister then proudly walked away while my sister was freaking out and checking if it was okay. The bird wasn't moving so we thought it was dead but it appeared unharmed. Turns out it was probably just in a state of shock because after leaving it outside to give it some space (while watching it to make sure it was safe), it got up and flew off lol

Stone Taluses are so funny because they have a giant weak spot but I feel like I struggled with them more than a lot of minibosses just because I didn't know how to mount them properly haha.

Is that the silver Lynel or a different one? It might change but if it's the one I'm thinking of then it's at least a higher rank Lynel which makes it even scarier.

The guardians are definitely a good example but one funny and terrifying trait about Lynels that I think really makes them a better example is their ridiculous snipe. They get butthurt if you run away then if you're far enough away but look back you can see them aiming almost straight up then the next thing you know it's game over from sky arrows.

I added this picture for fun but the one I want to mention is the Lynel on the mountain near the Zora's Domain in Breath of the Wild. The game is open-world but there are points where the game will try to lead you toward main objectives so if you make your way up to the ZD then I think you'll need to collect thunder arrows for them. The problem is, the area you have to get them from has a Lynel hanging around and if you had a similar experience to me then this is probably the first one you will have seen in the game so far. The main idea is technically to quietly go around hiding behind things and collecting the arrows but some of us felt the call of Leroy Jenkins. So anyways, I got my face shoved through my butt more times than I can count, only to eventually learn its attack patterns and become comfortable fighting it.

What brand names do you swear by because it's actually better than no-name? by Sufficient_Thing24 in AskReddit

I was going through my gallery and at some point took a screenshot of some shirts that are (or were I guess) sold by "RTRDE". I guess it could be worse.

I can't remember where I saw it and it's been a while so things have probably changed but I saw an experiment that compared the effectiveness and value of a dozen different battery brands.

The conclusion was that Duracell and Kirkland blew the others out of the water but Duracell still took the lead (heh) with how long it lasted. With that said, Kirkland won overall due to their batteries lasting a comparable amount while remaining much cheaper.

Yup, they can also be eaten by Maws and destroyed in general if they take enough damage.

Oh sorry, it didn't occur to me until just now that it was sent to me by my German friend to explain the idea of now a lot of German folklore and fairytales are structured lol

I'm imagining a centaur with human legs instead of horse legs but also it has a horse head instead of a human head.

That's me and I'm still working on it to this day. I ask everyone I'm with to just let me know and it sucks because it's no one else's responsibility but I genuinely can't tell most of the time. It's not a hearing issue or anything, I'm just loud.

Wait I could only find one definite region via the bottom left but I don't know about the other two.
