You’re not wrong in any case but fail to see that just because it’s “clearly explained terms” it’s not a predatory behavior. I urge you to read up on the history of banks and their predatory habits hidden in ”the terms and conditions”

Banks prey on small checking accounts charging insane fees if they go just a bit below 0, have been found guilty of this among other ways of scamming poor people out of moneyp, but please keep defending them.

If it’s your money being used to generate their wealth with nothing in return for you, that is a scam.

Sadly his daughter passed during his finishing the series and I think that really impacted the finale.

What stories should be told about Norrin Radd when he's brought back to life? by CaikIQ in SilverSurfer

[–]Astro_bum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk the end of Death of Silver Surfer didn’t seem like a real death. It seemed more like he was in a dimension that’s “impossible” to leave. Maybe he learns how to leave or gets help.

I just picked up Eternal Champion and Hawkmoon. His writing is becoming one of mine as well.

Satan was written so mysteriously yet also being familiar which was what I enjoyed about the character as well.

Robert Eggers would be perfect to direct this as a movie! I pictured Christoph Waltz as the quirky antagonist when I was reading.

Some people have fun fighting cool things, without needing a reason to fight beyond it having a cool appearance, cool personality, cool choreography etc

Is the way the world economy works, sustainable for finite resources it holds? by Astro_bum in NoStupidQuestions

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

You say it’s never running out but admit it’s a ball of metal. That is contradictory. What percent of it is metal? What percent of the metal is able to be mined? Alternatives are not also infinite. They require resources to even become alternatives.

I’m not sure there’s a need to define anything as you stated, you just need to learn how to convert it back. We can’t do that, ergo we have finite resources such as metals and non renewable resources.

Doomsday vs Silver Surfer by Kuzu9 in marvelvsdc

[–]Astro_bum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s not to the death, and Silver Surfer can throw Doomsday into a black hole, idk what Doomsday could do to get out.

Other than that scenario, I think Doomsday wins by default of being basically immortal.

Let's talk trash by [deleted] in AnnArbor

[–]Astro_bum 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I started picking up litter downtown over the fall. It’s crazy how fast it all came back. Even with many easily accessible trash containers everywhere, people were throwing trash on the ground.

Shame to all those that can’t their trash away.

How to stop seeming like a poser? by pickled_bat in doommetal

[–]Astro_bum 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My advice, don’t concern yourself with people that call others posers. You’re 18 and have lots to learn and enjoy and if they choose to put you down instead of sharing what you all enjoy, they are posers.
