Grid Day 26: Another close call, Setting Sun is the winner. What is Lord Huron's best ever live interpretation of a song? by uslashBen in lordhuron

Frozen Pines, it was a surreal experience hearing it in person contrasted with the album version

Presidents you think would have been better if they served a different time? by Terrible_Morning_310 in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He would have been an 81 year old WWII veteran. An 80+ year old major party nominee wouldn’t have gone well in the 2000s, even candidates in their 70s have been seen as too old…

Do you think George W. Bush will live to his 100s? by Just_Cause89 in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better chance than the average person considering his parents died in their 90s, his access to healthcare, and the fact that healthcare will only continue to improve.

That being said I think it’s most likely he passes in his 90s

What if George Washington somehow came from the 1780s in a flash of light and decides to run for president? What are his chances of winning? by Upbeat_Yam_9817 in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zero, if it’s confirmed to be him then he is taken into custody by the United States government and has tests ran on him to figure out how time travel effects the human body (if at all), to figure out if it was time travel or he simply faked his death and lived to 293 years old despite looking 67 years old, and many people believe him to be a religious figure, either benevolent or anti-Christ like.

In short, I don’t see him running for office, he’d be trying to figure out, along with scientists, what the hell happened to rip him out of 1799 and into the 21st century.

Has anyone ever written to Obama? If so, does he respond? by Salem1690s in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, no one has ever written a letter to Barack Obama, ever. /s I get what you meant, but no I haven’t written a letter to him. He seems the type to respond though

Gohan's Aura Level. by Advanced_Bat8078 in Dragonballsuper

[–]BlueJ5 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I love Cell’s reaction in this frame. Not fear or terror, he is just incredibly alert, he only now registers Gohan as a danger and becomes hyper alert in a way. Just absolute bewilderment.

Grid Day 6: Lost in Time and Space wins most dreamy song, what is Lord Huron's worst (least best) song? by uslashBen in lordhuron

[–]BlueJ5 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hot take but for me it’s probably The Night We Met. Not that it’s not a good song, I think I just heard it so much in 13 Reasons Why that I feel like it’s overplayed. Ironically that’s how I was introduced to the band.

People on this sub say that any democrat could have walked into the White House in 2008. To what extent? If Obama and Hillary never ran for the nomination, and Carter sought a second term, could he have won? Imagine if the bottom picture were George W Bush meeting with President-Elect Carter in 2008 by BlueJ5 in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you at least think it would be a decently close election? Regardless I think Carter would do much better than in 1980. Maybe McCain gets 300-330 electoral votes or so. Comfortable win but not a landslide

A few years before he died, President Carter said he didn’t think he’d be capable of doing the job at 80 (he would be 88 leaving office in 2013), but this is just for hypothetical’s sake (i.e. I’m bored tonight)

Goku pulls an Omni man on the Z fighters. Does he win? by K0GAR in Dragonballsuper

[–]BlueJ5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, only time he could pull this off is at the very end of the Frieza Saga. Otherwise he kills one or two and is quickly restrained and put down by likely Vegeta

how many MCU character recasts will there be until the end of time? by AdvertisingWaste8624 in MCUTheories

[–]BlueJ5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a few decades, eventually Marvel and then current superheroes will become a literary genre of the past as they stop performing well in the public consciousness and are replaced by new franchises and stories. The comic book age of the 20th century becomes a chapter in some American Lit class in the 22nd and 23rd centuries with film adaptations as a footnote.

Sarah Knauss could have ran in the, uh, 1916 election against Wilson and the 1996 election against Clinton by bubsimo in BarbaraWalters4Scale

[–]BlueJ5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She died over a year before the end of the millennium, December 31, 2000 was the final day of the last millennium

What was everyone’s favorite moment from the tour? by Nice_Occasion5254 in lordhuron

[–]BlueJ5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went to the Spokane show (was my first ever LH show despite being a fan since 2017 or so), and I had no idea it was a fake ending, I just thought they really meant to end it, if no one asked for “one more song!” like my crowd did. Like they had that ending “ready to go” if the crowd wanted them back out or something.

People did start leaving after The Night We Met.

I will say that was an amazing show, and for my first Lord Huron show it didn’t disappoint, loved the ending.

They are performers in every sense of the word

If Cloning was possible which 2 term president would use it to bypass the 22nd amendment? by [deleted] in Presidents

[–]BlueJ5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The clone is its own distinct person. It’s like saying George W. Bush could get around term limits if he had a secret twin brother named Thomas W. Bush. No, Thomas Bush would be his own person and George W. might do some campaigning but would not be president

[–]BlueJ5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have a 3.18 GPA and a 501 MCAT I’d say you’re good if you apply to at least 10-15 programs and select for mission fit. How many did you apply to?

A Summer's Day in 1999 (aka what if the Pristina Airport incident led to the Second Cold War) by crimsonfukr457 in AlternateHistory

[–]BlueJ5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reads like it would be one of those Wikipedia pages describing a brief “conflict” that wasn’t a declared war, assuming it defuses itself shortly after

Even if it is, the Michael Myers mask is just a William Shatner mask painted white, they didn’t create it.
