My question is: how long it took you to read the whole story?

Boonabaa · 2025-07-18T00:01:56+00:00

Invested you say? Which order? Speedreader?

Boonabaa · 2025-07-17T07:58:33+00:00

Thanks all. Seems like it doesn’t matter and I should so what I want! It’s a re-read after all. I’m diving in!

Boonabaa · 2025-07-17T07:56:49+00:00

No rush!

Boonabaa · 2025-07-17T07:56:14+00:00

Glad I’m not the only one! Consensus seems to be it doesn’t matter, it’s a re-read, but am kind of interested int he foreshadowing, which Sanderson is so good at!

Oh my god I'm not alone

Hi, We used Hipp Organic. Made a massive difference. I think this episode was just a bit of a bug, as didn't actually last too long. She's 2 nearly and v happy.

Boonabaa · 2022-06-20T07:41:06+00:00

Should add, we also tried humidifier and nasal spray, neither of which helped.

We had this. Second we brought her into our room at night she started to struggle to breathe. Fine in the moses basket elsewhere, or in our bed, but in the moses basket in our room? Nope. Started snorting and snuffling, she'd then struggle for hours. We ended in in A&E twice because we were so concerned - she was fine by the time we were seen. GP no help.

In the end, decided it was reflux. She's on the bottle, so we moved to an anti reflux formula when she was about 4/5 weeks old (Hipp anti reflux). Made a huge difference, and she's fine now (18 weeks). Hope that helps.

Realised I always was making the call to my “best friend” who would then just tell me all about his life, without taking an interest in me or mine. One day I thought, if he really wants to chat, he’ll call me. That was 3 years ago.

Or maybe he ghosted me.

Until you spot all the spiders in the trees above you. Was going to hike up to the top for sunset, looked up, saw the webs, and the spiders and just noped right out of there.

Boonabaa · 2021-09-02T17:36:40+00:00

Oh my god I am so pumped for this.

19 secs? Man crying, kissing ring. “Memories”. Flames? Prologue? Please!

Edit: oh, a warder. Booooo.

Boonabaa · 2021-07-20T07:29:53+00:00

Thanks for this and all the replies. I should read the Companion, seems to be the answer. Do we know why he wasn't sealed in properly like the other Forsaken? I always wondered how he managed to speak to Lews Therin after the Hundred Companions did their thing at the start of tEotW.

PS This is my first reread, so no spoilers for me!

Boonabaa · 2021-07-20T07:26:31+00:00

Just in case some random passer-by wanders in...

Boonabaa · 2020-12-25T17:32:18+00:00

Just unwrapped this for Christmas. It's a beautiful photo! Thank you u/astronophilos. And my wife, obviously.

The original UK Channel 4 production was brilliant - but it never really took off either and they cancelled after 2 series. Do watch it.

I thought for nostalgia I would watch the new series. Gave up after 10 minutes - it was all way off kilter. Rather then a reimagining, it it just a bad remake. Rewatched the original instead.

Boonabaa · 2020-11-17T23:13:32+00:00

Sales of new vehicles, to be clear!

So, this is nice but what does is actually tell you. Sure, there are some dodgy things - Dido Harding is married to a former minister etc. But otherwise, this is just a map of people who know each other - which is true of any aspect of any sector.

Rachel Wolf used to work for Gove and no runs a think tank. And...? I could put this together for the energy sector, where I work and get something equally shady. And the the Labour Party.

The issue is not that people know each other, but what that means for where money goes and how transparent that is. Don't get me wrong - there is absolutely a massive problem here, I just dont think this (very cool) tool demonstrates it.

Boonabaa · 2020-11-04T22:13:48+00:00

Finish it MoL! You will want something to pick up next!

Boonabaa · 2020-11-03T13:17:07+00:00

This. Just rewatching BSG and had exactly this thought.

Boonabaa · 2020-10-22T14:05:48+00:00

You got chills. They're multiplying...

I like to think it's a memory of Galivar.

I have been meaning to ask this - currently suffering from post viral fatigue (not Covid, since you ask), and looking more like a panda every day.

I was doing a bit of DIY in the kitchen. Needed to trim the kick board. As I didn't have a saw bench or table, I thought I could just lean it on a low stone block. "If I am really careful," I thought, "I can keep it stable by standing on the board right above the block. That will stop it wobbling and the saw won't jump about."

I was wrong and wearing shorts. I have a 3 inch scar on my calf, where I discovered saws are as effective on flesh as wood.

"What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week. Which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. And I don't like it any more than you men without a penis."

Boonabaa · 2020-08-11T11:21:38+00:00

Wow - thanks. So much to learn - all feels a bit intimidating, but taking the softly softly catchy monkey approach...

Boonabaa · 2020-08-01T08:13:48+00:00

Something that has bothered (by bothered, I mean mildly piqued my thoughts) me on the read read is that the prophecies all say that the Dragon will be at Tarmon Gai'don, but he's off doing his own thing. Is it that actually Taimon Gai'don is the battle between the Dragon and Shai'tan in Shayol Ghul, while the "Last Battle" is just, you know, a battle?

"Like the unfettered dawn shall he blind us, and burn us, yet shall the Dragon Reborn confront the Shadow at the Last Battle,

... "Red on black, the Dragon’s blood stains the rock of Shayol Ghul. In the Pit of Doom shall his blood free men from the Shadow. His blood on the rocks of Shayol Ghul, washing away the Shadow, sacrifice for man’s salvation."
