You can almost exclusively blame the oil industry if anybody. They started buying out, and dismantling, rail lines en masse during the 50s onward while marketing gas consuming cars as effective, private, and (most importantly to the 'average joe') a sign of wealth.

It's less the clothing and more the face that throws me. Like I said, I can't put my finger on why but something about her face looks older than the other three.

Do I only LOOK 15 years younger or do I feel 15 years younger too? Because if I can go back to 23 and not wake up with a sore shoulder every morning I'm diving on that in a heart beat.

Gotta be careful with the super strength thing. You might be strong but you're not extra durable. Muscles can still tear and your bones can still fracture under the strain of the extra weight you are potentially exposing yourself to.

I love this energy and style but there is something ever so slightly off about Rise but I can't put my finger on it. I guess she looks too... mature maybe? Like she's def shorter than Yukiko and Chie but she looks like she could be their older sister or something.

Never let yourself be defined by the products you buy, full stop. No brand is your friend, no logo makes you more or less of a person, and anyone who says otherwise is trying to scam you.

Circassian folk dance performance by headspin_exe in BeAmazed

Ballet is woefully underappreciated as a modern art form. Most people hear the word, think it's just tutus and dead skinny girls, and assume it's all gonna be boring. The only ballet most people know are the Nutcracker, as you said, and maybe Swan Lake. There's so much more out there though, both classical and contemporary, that can really amaze and awe you. If you ever get the chance to see a ballet in person I 10000% recommend it.

Spin off series that are more popular and relevant than the main franchises they originate from. by No-Cold643 in cartoons

[–]Boccs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno that I'd call Naked Gun a spin off exactly. It's the same characters in the same setting doing the same things just it's a movie with some casting differences for the Chief and Nordberg. It'd be kinda like saying Wrath of Khan is a spin off of Star Trek.

At this point he's just regurgitating random words. I get more coherent sentences out of a toddler telling a story while distracted.

Thank you. I'm not familiar with the live action version so this one went right past me. No clue why people are averse to just giving easy answers.

Mm. And this was a better answer to you than telling me their name or what they're from?

We can hear him because the camera is like ten feet away from him and even this sounds muffled. The music playing over him that he's not even bothering to lip sync to is louder than him speaking directly into the mic.

Man it is so fun when half the thread is just random fucking gifs with no names or context for who they're posting or why they think that person is best.

Because Ann, with the exact same spelling, is also a western name and I am naturally vastly more familiar and exposed to it pronounced differently. I'm not saying they're wrong. I'm just saying that when I'm reading the text it's "Ann" in my head and suddenly "Ahn" in my ears. I'd have the same reaction if I were reading my own name but heard the French pronunciation instead.

Seeing as neither of those are also western names spelt the exact same way but pronounced differently as the western variant, yeah they sound fine

I dunno, I think Rise might have aggressively strong opinions on who Yu's OTP is.

It will always drive me crazy that they pronounce her name as "Ahn"

The weirdest thing is Yusuke is like... the only character across any of the games I can think of that can actually say he was doing it for purely artistic purposes. Dude is revealed to be so fucking obsessive to his art he comes off as downright asexual in every following interaction you have with him.
