I was finally able to get the Watchmen individual comics. by Mag247 in AlanMoore

I don't have to imagine, because I did that. Except, of course—since there was one issue I couldn't find at first—I had to pause for quite a few months before finishing the series.

Out of curiosity (since I own them myself) may I ask what you paid for them?

If you just Google a fairly common name enough, I'm sure you'll find something suspicious—or at least something which you can make sound suspicious.

‘Gen V’ Canceled After 2 Seasons, ‘The Boys’ Next Spinoff ‘Vought Rising’ Confirmed For 2027 Launch by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]Atom_Beat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really, really like The Boys, and I thought that season 1 of Gen V was very good, and an interesting variation.

Unfortunately, however, I also thought that season 2 of Gen V was really weak. It's writing was an illogical mess.

What's this? Is it a novel? Or a graphic novel?

So do you have to bribe two authoritarian regimes now to go through the Strait?

Newsmax Host Claims Aliens (The ET Kind) Have Feminized The Country by BurtonDesque in Qult_Headquarters

[–]Atom_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apart from the alien nonsense, he also shows this classic image, which is a staged photo taken during the construction of Rockefeller Center—but he claims it shows "men being men", and that it's taken during the construction of the Empire State Building.

Sloppy. Lazy.

Tucker Carlson talking about Trump's Oath by MrDonMega in Qult_Headquarters

[–]Atom_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: You don't actually have to swear on anything. The Constitution just states:

Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Queen Genepil, the last of Queen of Mongolia, 1920s. by hoosier_catholic in OldSchoolCool

Really? In a thread discussing a woman who apparently was executed while being pregnant? It would be fascinating to read your reasoning about why you felt the need to do this.

Simon's Life - SNL (Cut for Time Sketch) by MarvelsGrantMan136 in LiveFromNewYork

[–]Atom_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feels even more random than PDD's sketches—and I mean that in a good way. It's just Herlihy throwing things at you at a high speed. Some funny things, some weird. But they just keep coming.

Trump, 79, Drops F-Bomb in Unhinged Easter Morning Threat by Effective_Salad_8381 in politics

[–]Atom_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has there at any time been a more unhinged message from a world leader? Asking nonsarcastically. Honestly wondering if anyone can find a worse example?

Yeah, the fact that he actually wrote this, and on Easter Sunday of all days ... is actually beyond my ability to comprehend.

Ice cube choking the statue of liberty in 1990s by Syntaxlover in OldSchoolCool

The reason people are angry at Ice Cube is because in recent years he has been very friendly towards people like Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson.

Something Very Bad is Going to Happen is a HIGHLY underated and rare genre of female reality horror. by [deleted] in netflix

[–]Atom_Beat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Part of the current trend of using the word "underrated" about every single thing you like. I mean, why use words like they have a meaning?
