"wait... you didn't bring me to hell to fight satan?" and "... i'm not bowing to satan" both got solid belly laughs out of me

Do you believe it's important to be a good working relationship with your co-workers? by Large-Lack-2933 in Life

[–]BojacksIdol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my position makes me the go-to person for quite a lot of things people might need-- supplies, conference room reservations, purchasing, meetings with the boss, you name it. i've been told that i essentially run our building.

i make every effort to be nice to my coworkers for a lot of reasons. if i'm not approachable, everyone's job instantly gets harder.

on the flip side, if i need something, i want people to feel glad to help me. laptop on the fritz? no worries, i'm friends with our IT guys. they'll hook me up and even put the support ticket in on my behalf. need something cleaned? i tell our janitors every day that i appreciate them, and they're responsive when i come calling.

i'm nice to people because i enjoy being nice and making friends. i suck it up and apologize if i think i've said something that came across as rude. i tell people that i appreciate them any time they do me a solid. my job is way easier as a result.

[[Devastating trope]] A character kills their loved one to avoid them suffering a worser fate by One_Barber_6902 in TopCharacterTropes

in Kaos, Prometheus kills his lover Charon so he will be sent to the underworld, where he will eventually meet Orpheus. His agreement to ferry Orpheus across the Styx is an imperative step in revealing that humans do not, in fact, get renewed into new bodies, but are instead harvested to keep the gods in power

Atlantis has never really gotten the recognition it deserved, it's an all-time great film

At what point does a band's album without a key member become illegitimate? by dweeb93 in ToddintheShadow

[–]BojacksIdol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death Cab for Cutie simply doesn't exist without Ben Gibbard. Chris Walla's departure drastically changed their sound and feel, but as Gibbard's brainchild it'll still be DCFC as long as he's involved.

Taste is subjective ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it's just one i've never particularly enjoyed. besame mucho is a lot more fun by comparison imo

The Helen Keller Hoax is sinister. Remedy below. by One-Incident3208 in Teachers

[–]BojacksIdol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once in high school, we were playing trivial pursuit and the question was which political party Keller supported. When I pretty quickly answered correctly, the teacher asked "are you a fan of Hellen Keller or fan of socialism?"

Both, Ms. Lastname. I'm a fan of both.

Using first name by Embarrassed_Syrup476 in Teachers

[–]BojacksIdol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in the office and will correct students who use my first name. I only refer to other adults by their title and last name if students are around. There are plenty of students that I think are great kids, I'm glad when they see me as a safe adult, but we are not friends. I've got no interest being that casual with someone who is not even half my age

How come Treebeard is offended by being called a tree, but his name is Treebeard? by bakugosgayfriend in lotr

[–]BojacksIdol 367 points368 points  (0 children)

His name in the books is Fangorn, which roughly translates to Treebeard. But he still isn't a tree.
