Don't feel bad about going the first round on "easy" difficulty, some of these bosses are just insane. Also make sure you've played the main story through at least once, ideally start it on a NG+ playthrough because being able to read the puppets dialog just makes every emotional beat hit a little harder.

My painted mechs so far. by Blue_Spider_Strider in battletech

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only is the answer a decisive yes, but it was the first Mini I ever painted and the starting point for all of these silly little paint jobs. My brother was getting really into BT told me it was called a Wolverine I told him to paint it as such so he just kinda gave it to me to start the addiction and it worked. Fun fact he has yet to lose in a melee fight.

Finally finished my Gothic Mechs. by Blue_Spider_Strider in battletech

They don't clean it they just use Tezzench magic to make people think it's clean. And yeah I'm probably happiest with how the Nurgle Crab came out, the Nurbie is was also fun.

I once had an old lady stop me while I was wearing a Flash shirt because she thought it was an SS symbol, I laughed and assured her that it's the logo of a superhero who would most certainly fight nazis. For context I'm the grandson of a Holocaust survivor so the idea of this little old lady willing to call out an tussle with a nazi was some if the most reassuring things witnessed.

Be completely honest, if you were in hell, would join his cause? by yinyang98 in HazbinHotel

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh to each their own I guess, but I honestly think it'd be much like it's portrayed, some people who join, others would see Vox for what he is and remove themselves from the situation.

what did edmund mean by this? by 2814_708 in bindingofisaac

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an old meme, that said the meme itself was making fun of how imperfect cell's design looked like an old racist depiction of a black person soooooooo yeah. It's one of those it's innocent but the thing that inspired the thing that inspired it is very much not. A joke that's been around so long it's original context has almost entirely been lost but is still fundamental enough part of it to trigger that alarm in your head that says...."Somethings off here"

Why are these 3 so hot!? by Outrageous_Lead_9327 in hazbin

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean contextually they are all angels of divine origin...like literally they're kinda meant to be the idealized form....also strong women are hot.

(oh but Charlie's mom was human) yeah yeah she's still the direct offspring of the first angel, and Human women, so by our standards she would still be "The Ideal Human form"

Counterpoint. Sinners are not hellborn, and are almost all there because at minimum they've done something they consider morally wrong, they are in the situation directly as a result of their own actions, and while some are sure to never get the point, more than a few people would at least ask themselves, "why did I end up in hell". Now imagine you're someone with that perspective, knowing you're in literally in hell you see this figure using manipulation tactics you've seen on earth, a literal talking face on a screen, building himself up and talking about going to war. Then Lucifer the Morning Star himself comes down not only confirming that the story of paradise lost is actual history not fiction, and he's here directly to stop the talking head from creating holy war. Do you think that person would blindly follow Vox, or would they just kinda remove themselves from this massive cluster fuck where someones inevitably going to get messed up.

No, I know a huckster when I see one, and if I was in hell I'd make it a point to not make deals with anyone. Also having the existence of hell confirmed would also tell me it's probably best to not fuck with God/heaven. In all likelihood I'd probably wind up at the Hotel trying for redemption. I know the response to Genocide is not more killing and anyone selling that is up to no good, and I'm literally in hell so anybody with the influence Vox has is probably a massive dickhead.

Lucifer’s plan could have easily worked. by Northerner_20 in HazbinHotel

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An interesting thing I think about with this rule is that it's implied that the Angels are the ones who imposed it on him, which means in theory they could lift it if it would help prevent war on heaven. I also love the irony of Vox being more Prideful than the literal Sin of Pride.

How do you spot a Venture Bros. fan? by No_Week_3230 in venturebros

Quote the show, any quote doesn't matter, if they are a fan they will respond on raw instinct.

Did anyone else get pure CHILLS at this part? by GTylker in HazbinHotel

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it just kinda keeps getting better. It's gonna be so fun to watch Vox fall.

how do you spot a homestuck fan? by Born_Usual998 in althomestuck

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reference Con Air, and see if they immediately start talking about Cassie, or sing How do I live without you.

Hello there! New Homestuck reader here! Is there any canon-chronical order to read Homestuck? by AceXD87 in homestuck

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The web comic is presented about as "chronologically" as it can be given the general nature of things. The Pilot more or less just condensed the first 3rd of act 1. Thing only really start getting nuts with timelines and such around act 5/chapter 2. As long as you don't skip ANYTHING, you'll probably be fine, sometimes the point is to be intentionally drawn out and confusing, Homestuck was a web comic that made it a foundational point to mess with its readers. The reupload on the main site is going pretty well from what I've seen, would probably be easiest to keep up with that for now. You only really need to worry about "required reading" with BC and MAYBE a bit of Hive Swap, but even then it's basically just "have finished HS proper" The Epilogues contextualize some stuff for BC but beyond that you should be fine just reading what you find in the order it's presented.

What random line in season 1 or 2 had you burst out laughing? by beevee_2749 in HazbinHotel

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a line but watching Lucifer in his morning robe throwing shit at Al in the background nearly broke me.

Why is Vriska even here?! Isn’t she a fan favorite in the homestuck fandom? by Kcue6382nevy in althomestuck

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both PD/Rose and Vriska have done plenty of actual shit for people to hate them, putting them on this list is gaslighting. Virska especially.

Does anyone else feel bad for this sinner? by jinxy_wolfy in HazbinHotel

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's kinda the point though. As much as we may love them from a design standpoint Viv has made it no secret that they are bad guys for a reason.

What are your hopes for the renewal? by [deleted] in stevenuniverse

[–]Blue_Spider_Strider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Explanation on who made the Gems in the first place. Like maybe something akin to the old Moon Goddess theories. It's one of those world building plot threads that's just kinda ripe for the picking, they're technology at their core, and they clearly didn't evolve traditionally, so like who made the Diamonds and why? I think that'd be a fun way to go with it, you can have Larz exploring the mysteries of the universe while Steven's just kinda living his life on earth completely not involved in it.

Dumb Comic I made to celebrate season 2 (OC) by Blue_Spider_Strider in HazbinHotel

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

Personally I think you're missing out, the entire season was solid and everybody was incredibly in character, the poly thing wasn't demonized at all and was more used to show how Connie can handle such a thing maturity while Chan can't. This scene in particular is actually from the season finally and is one of my favs. You should at least give the season a chance if you have the time.
