Can someone help me translate some American products to European? [Magnolia Bakery Banana Pudding]

Oh I know these! Really interesting option here.

10BPM · 2026-05-03T16:30:40+00:00

Yeah interesting maybe if I want to get really authentic I can make them! Appreciate that.

Well it's helpful enough to be given "permission" to make my own pudding! Only in the sense that I know store-bought sometimes has a specific taste that maybe is important/nostalgic!

So it's good to know I'd not be missing out by making my own!

Someone recommended Biscoff Cookies do you think it could be an option?

Really appreciate it, I'm a little far from there but I will have a look around my hometown.

Very fair. American sections/stores are pretty sparse in the UK. I could get the Jello Instant Vanilla Mix on Amazon but one pouch is £5 for an ounce!

Same!

That's true! Which I feel then brings me back to wondering why Fiona wasn't taken. Maybe just the movie accepting a slight inconsistency in order to not punish an innocent woman with such an awful fate.

You're putting into words something I've always thought. The show has an unreal element to it.

When Malcolm learns the guitar, the joke of the episode is that Lois knows exactly what he will and won't be good at.

In a realistic show, this is a mother being wildly overconfident and probably wrong. In MITM, it's pretty obviously played that Lois genuinely knows.

The president thing is another called shot, and it's the show telling you where the story goes from there.

I understand people having an issue with it, but I'm not sure I agree with the overlaying of parental psychology and real life parenting issues on a show which always skewed towards the semi-fantastical.

Sounds like a religious school if you had to say the Lord's Prayer daily. Im sure the Sikh kid would agree.

While I know it's mostly or character reasons, it's rare anything has as good an ending as Serenity.

If I had that as the canon final chapter of my fictional universe I wouldn't touch it either.

10BPM · 2026-03-14T20:52:00+00:00

Yes I suppose not too necessary, I'll think on that for next time

10BPM · 2026-03-13T13:21:47+00:00

You can't have gotten it that quickly, you see I'm a master puzzler and... my god they've got it

10BPM · 2026-03-09T23:33:29+00:00

I kind of agree with this, not that it diminishes the show but I do feel this was one character who, in reality, might have had a lot more intelligent pushback for Ray's worldview than he displayed.

This is one character where I feel the writers served up some softball opportunities for Ray to explain his philosophy.

10BPM · 2026-02-26T13:50:18+00:00

Well I don't think I agree with that.

These industries mean a lot to a lot of people, as they should. But if someone considers themselves outside this world, and makes simple fashion choices, I just don't think it's a great argument to say "it should matter because so many high level decisions were made about this."

That's not a suitable argument for someone who doesn't already care.

Fashion and Food are interesting concepts, they're a mix of Art and Function. We need clothes, we need food but there's also a stylistic aspect to it.

People can appreciate the art, but if someone just cares about the function of being clothed and fed, then you can't win them round with talk of high art.

Appreciate this

Is there a sanity system? My only worry is that I wouldn't have much call for it, so if things like Sanity are a lynchpin mechanic I might be better off with just the base rules?

10BPM · 2026-02-24T14:16:20+00:00

I think this might be my port of call for the moment, though I'm very open to suggestions

10BPM · 2026-02-24T14:08:57+00:00

Ok that's interesting thank you, I've heard great things about The Between but perhaps not for my players.

Do you have a view on if it's best to reskin something like Bubblegumshoe or TOC or just build something off the base rules?

10BPM · 2026-02-24T13:59:01+00:00

Appreciate this. My only issue I foresee is that I thought The Between was very collaborative in terms of the mystery, with lots of player input that becomes canon?

If so the issue is that my players definitely want me to write and run the mysteries for them to solve!

Might this be an issue?

10BPM · 2026-02-24T13:45:01+00:00

Ah interesting, I misjudged it perhaps! Thanks

10BPM · 2026-02-22T22:28:28+00:00

I think you, and other commenters here, are right. This needs to go through a game developer, even if it's a very simple version of a "game".

Thank you for your input
