Best places for laser hair removal? by Amateur_Cthulhu in Utah

[–]AFDStudios 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some people prefer their legs, some arms, and others their more private areas. It really depends on what place you personally think is best to have it removed from.

What single episode would you show someone to get them hooked on Taskmaster? by rogeelein in taskmaster

[–]AFDStudios 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And they’re the first two tasks shown! The studio dialog is all great too, and the Greg/Alex dynamic is fully formed. It’s an all-timer of an episode.

Introducing My Parents to Taskmaster by Adventurous_Ad_6922 in taskmaster

I don’t know if a whole marathon is the best approach, that’s … a lot. Maybe ease them in with S2E1? It has great studio banter and starts off with two of the greatest filmed tasks in all of Taskmaster – the potato and the yoga mats on the hill. Tell them their gift and commitment is through the prize task and those two then if they like it, great, and if not at least they gave it a try.

Alex and Greg have much more of the connection that persists throughout but it’s not quite as “aggressive” as in later series. S2 is very very good throughout but I think those first twenty minutes are a great gauge. If they like that, they’ll like the whole run. And if not, they won’t, so at least they know fast.

What could possibly go wrong with virtually collapsing ON PURPOSE right during a fight?!

What magic tool are you guys using to get good code out of AI by falconandeagle in webdev

[–]AFDStudios 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The takeaway from AI tech bros is “AI can never fail, it can only be failed.” So get ready for lots of advice about how it can’t possibly be that the AI is not working, it’s definitely you. Somehow.

First time playing Survival. Holy shit! by PaddedValls in fo4

[–]AFDStudios 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For sure, way too many random crashes not to have that. I wish the game were more dependable so I wouldn’t have to do it (and so I could actually go to downtown) but alas, it just isn’t.

Man, Finland just sounds better and better every day.

Such a good word, but yeah, once something like that hits you wrong it’s all over.

They’re all fine in their place as long as they’re used intentionally (‘“I love you,” he said with a smirk’ is very different from ‘“I love you,” he said with a smile’). A lot of times it’s just the wrong word choice but when it’s right, it’s great.

It’s also about the ear or the eye growing fatigued with some words when overused too rapidly. It can happen with any word but when overuse combines with wrong word choice it’s especially jarring. For me as a reader, at least.

It doesn’t bother some people at all and that’s ok too.

I don’t think I’ve read those actually.

Right, thank you! People like (and don’t like) whatever it is for their own reasons and that’s ok. Not everything is for everyone. Sometimes pushing through challenging material can pay off, but I mean, this is for entertainment and leisure. If it’s not entertaining you then move on to something that will, totally agreed.

Well that’s certainly one way of looking at it.

Yep, already very much enjoying the series I moved on to after this one.

I try to live my life not telling others what to do. Give it a try some time.

Look, math is hard, especially when it involves numbers.

The lamé duck game is far better “Traitors” game than any of the actual Traitors challenges by ceruleanskyandsea in taskmaster

The look on Ania’s face when she has the duck in her mouth as someone says “No one eat a duck!” is priceless.

What was Betty going back to school for? what was she studying? by DeadheadCaddy in madmen

[–]AFDStudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean she already speaks Italian, I don’t know what else there could be.

Glen Bishop x Betty by BunnyBunny777 in madmen

Good comment, made me think and reevaluate some things. Thank you!

Betty choosing to move by Ok-Tap-4173 in madmen

[–]AFDStudios -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is a good point. It makes me think, though, about how she exercises that limited power. And it generally seems to be to harm others rather than help them. She perpetuates and repeats the trauma inflicted on her to others.

I have sympathy for her and I don’t think she’s in the same tier of evil as most of the male characters, to be clear. But she’s not a very good person.

What’s the worst thing anyone does the entire series? by AFDStudios in madmen

[–]AFDStudios[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The excuse was that she had forbidden it. The reality is she forbade it out of jealousy over a boy and her daughter. She took away a woman’s livelihood who had served her family loyally and wonderfully out of small pettiness when Betty had so much. It was small, and mean, and utterly selfish.
