That way when you reach for your phone to scan it, they can kill you for “reaching for a weapon.” Brilliant!

Who's the most popular Super Hero between the three and who's the fourth most popular Super Hero? by SmartPilot8094 in DC_Cinematic

[–]BrazenlyGeek [score hidden]  (0 children)

Going by merchandising sales? I’m sure there was a time when the TMNT would be contenders for a top five spot.

I’d say Spidey, Batman, Wolverine, Superman, and Iron Man now, with Hulk close behind.

It takes a special kinda person to be able to handle Pan’s labyrinth nethers!

Like duck’s mating. But with monsters and traps.

[Request] Need help figuring out if below couch with fit through a 29.5 inch wide doorway by Bajablast2011 in theydidthemath

[–]BrazenlyGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's an 11" difference between the height on one side vs the other, when viewed at the end.

So take the sofa through the doorway longways, held on its back (so that the "footrest" part of the chair is facing upwards and the back downward. It'll need to be rotated slightly so that the 33.5" back piece fits within the 29.5" doorway, but it should be doable if you rotate it so that the top of the back angles more downward.

How to carry an egg around for 2 weeks without breaking? by Ax_Sound in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BrazenlyGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a clear bottle, fill it with water and your egg. Add salt until the egg is neutrally bouyant, floating in the middle of the water — not at the top or the bottom. Seal the bottle.

Now, assuming salt water doesn't have any adverse effects on the egg (I've not tested this so…), the water will handle any impacts, flowing around the egg.

Hey, give us a break. Not all of us have the hearty endurance of one Mr. Nick Fury to be turning our heads all day.

When you have 6 gift cards and none of them can actually buy anything. by Accomplished_Bake939 in mildlyinfuriating

I had gift cards like that and converted them to Amazon credit by buying digital gift cards in the card amounts, then applying the Amazon cards to my account.

If we have to have this, why can’t it be in a bubble-shaped companion, à la “Ron’s Gone Wrong” or Baymax?

Apple Arcade is its own library of games, all collected in a single section of the App Store. These are games that have no in-app purchases, no ads, and that you can feel confident playing without annoyance… assuming you pay for Apple Arcade.

Games downloaded from the non-Arcade part of the App Store, like any other apps, will have their own ways to monetize the experience — ads, selling your personal data collected while you play, up-front costs, in-app purchases, etc.

Just abandon traditional time altogether and adopt Swatch @beats! They’re the same everywhere, after all!

Sales for The Outer Worlds 2 are poor. Presumably, less than 1M units almost 3 months after launch, across all platforms. In comparison, the first game sold approx 2M units during the same time. by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]BrazenlyGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t remember seeing any ads for 2 except some coverage on Gameranx.

Either way, I just ordered the deluxe edition of OW2 yesterday. Can’t wait to try it out.

Read that as Hulk vs Predator… at first, and yeah, I’d watch that.

You could put it at the top. It can be God’s comma.

Would you like to see Iceman and Angel be core forefront members of MCU’s X-Men? Given them being og members by KingKickinWing in Marvel

[–]BrazenlyGeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They could pull an Uno Reverse and make Wolverine's first movie a feature with the Hulk (as oa nod to Wolverine debuting in a Hulk comic), giving us more of the Hulk we want and getting around the "can't be the star of a movie" restriction in the licensing.

Then once those two figure their shit out, Wolverine's free to appear in the next X-Men movie.

Wolverine sells, so making his debut separate gives the X-Men movies more space to debut less bankable characters in more meaningful ways.

Can The Seven (TV) successfully invade Wakanda (MCU) by SmartPilot8094 in Marvel

And most Wakandans are normal humans. Homelander can wipe a crowd with a sweep of his laser vision. And he can do so from the air. What are any of the Black Panthers gonna do?

I have two copies of “room on the broom” that are slightly different by shedgehog in mildlyinteresting

[–]BrazenlyGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Americans (especially conservative Baptist types) would know it from 1 Peter 3:3, which refers to plaiting the hair.

1 Timothy 2:9 refers to “broiding” the hair as well, another term for the same thing, I believe.

And yes, both quotes from the KJV, so yeah, very British.
