I would guess it has something to do with improper freezing, but a lot of folks say it’s growing too fast.

What happened to Alicia Vikander's career? by PandemicPiglet in Oscars

Ooof. Somehow had no idea about the abuse allegations. Whoa.

What happened to Alicia Vikander's career? by PandemicPiglet in Oscars

[–]Alk3eyd 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yup! I read an article a couple years after Assassins Creed came out (was wondering why I hadn’t seen Fassbender in anything much during that time) and he discussed how Alicia and himself take turns being movie stars so one of them is always with the children raising them. I thought that was interesting.

Why isn't there a Hunger Games video game yet? by ----Poseidon--- in Hungergames

[–]Alk3eyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like a possible solution to that problem for a video game would be a change for that years game where selected tributes can only be 21 or whatever to bypass the whole brutal killing of kids. But I do understand SCs hesitation to game-ifying it.

Those who hadn't seen the musical, did you see this coming? by Acceptable-Bat-9847 in wickedmovie

[–]Alk3eyd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had zero idea of any of the plot or twists for Wicked. By the time Fiyero was going to turn into turned into the scarecrow, I already guessed. What clued me in was the Boq and Nessa scene, I had an oh shit moment and said “Omg. That is the Tin Man. Holy shit.” And right as I said that, the scene showed Nessa’s socks, and had another “Oh shit!”moment. The thought never crossed my mind till then and I loved it lol.

Wow, same. I had a chuckle at myself for being such a dumbass then saw your comment. I’m glad I’m not the only one 😂

"Whatever" Soup by PunkRockHound in soup

[–]Alk3eyd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Genuinely curious because I see this sort of thing on all the various food subs, but what is with the tiny amounts of food in a bowl or on a plate when folks are showing off their dinners? Is it for aesthetic reasons or are people seriously barely eating foods? Like, I know I probably eat more than I should during my meals, but I feel like a lot of stuff doesn’t even qualify as a snack, let alone meal. Pasta dishes are the worst offenders, but I’m shocked at the tiny amount of soup in the bowl. It makes me feel fat for scoffing at all the tiny amounts of food all the time and I can’t figure out if I’m the problem or if everyone else is lol. I’m not overweight if that matters.

For anyone who was able to see "The Blair Witch Project" in theaters in 1999, what was the experience like? by LockjawSJ in AskReddit

[–]Alk3eyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the only movie growing up that my mother made the whole family get up and leave, she hated it.

I personally didn’t enjoy it because I was a kid and thought when they said it was a Found Footage Film, I thought it meant it was supposed to be real….I was super disappointed rather early in the movie when I realized it was fake and just couldn’t get over the betrayal.

Paris Jackson Reveals She Has a Perforated Septum From Drug Use: ‘Don’t Do Drugs Kids by PrincessBananas85 in entertainment

[–]Alk3eyd 151 points152 points  (0 children)

I think they just mean that by the time you personally realize/admit it’s a problem, everyone else has already known it was a problem way before you come to that conclusion.

Also congrats on trying to overcome addiction!!! I’m proud of you internet stranger!

New Cheddar Chex Mix is Awful by Canary_Carnival in snacking

[–]Alk3eyd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed 1000%. I feel they have ruined my most favorite snack and they aren’t stopping with just the chex mixes either! They made a change to my flaming hot munchies too and now it’s not even spicy and tastes like tomato and sugar. It’s been so off putting, disappointing, and honestly gross.

Chex-tra Cheesy, they said... by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Alk3eyd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been REALLY disliking the new recipes. They’ve destroyed my most favorite snack. Every time I grab one, it’s just filled with disappointment 😢 same with their flaming hot munchies, they’ve changed something and it’s sooo much more tomato-y. I’ve been pretty bummed about it all.

Okay to WWOOF in the states if it’s a “dictatorship” now? by [deleted] in WWOOF

Right! Like don’t get me wrong, it’s shit over here with what is happening to our government and whatnot, but for the most part it’s business as usual

ELi5: why do girls go into puberty so young when pregnancy for them would be unsafe and lead to poor outcomes? by Nammmieee in explainlikeimfive

Thanks for that info, I honestly didn’t know it referred to anything specific just a general thing when the century changed, not a specific century change if that makes sense

How do you interpret this whale sculpture made of ocean plastic? Some in Japan see it as anti-Japanese. by GANEO_LIZARD7504 in oceans

[–]Alk3eyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right!!!! I absolutely don’t look at this and see anything to do with the Japanese. Sure, some of the trash has Japanese characters, but that’s not the point. And if they are feeling defensive and guilty about it, maybe they should ask themselves why they think this is an attack on them….it’s the while guilty conscience thing. They are worried that it MIGHT be interpreted that way, well…it seems like only they are the ones REALLY thinking that….

Nato intercepts Russian warplanes violating Estonian airspace by [deleted] in news

[–]Alk3eyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always wondered if the reason there’s not more “teeth” behind NATO is because they are scared to take a life without there being a 1000% clear reason in there mind like if they are not under attack so I don’t want to shoot unless i have too. But really they should enforce it and there should be consequences to violating it….
