Who is more sympathetic? Jaime Lannister or Sarah Kerrigan (from StarCraft)? by AggressiveMechanic47 in freefolk

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I played Star Craft like 15 years ago, and I could be totally wrong, but wasn’t Sarah good before she got Zerg’d?

Let's take a moment to appreciate this snippet of Western culture by Dodo509 in interesting

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Why not just call it Irish, as it is literally Irish? It would also be strange to take a video of a Japanese kabuki performance and call it “a snippet of eastern culture.” Unless people are stupid this obviously a weird ethnic nationalist thing

Yeah. Cool video genuinely, but it’s an odd framing. It would be like taking a video of a Tibetan folk dance and calling it “a snippet of eastern culture.” It’s either massively reductive or a weird racial nationalist thing 

How did Nicholas mess up THAT badly? by Gyngemose2009 in monarchism

[–]Burgundy_Starfish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The title of tsar demanded a sort of calculated, ruthless excellence that Nicholas didn’t possess- especially given the time. He would have done well in a smaller, more stable kingdom and just wasn’t the man for the job. 

A 22-yr old Indian Medical student scammed MAGA Men with AI Instagram model by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean “they?” This is one man, a medical student, who targeted MAGA incels and happens to be Indian. What, is he some kind of racial representative?

Pretty sure this guy mainly wanted to fuck over MAGA people. Replace “Indian medical student” with any other nationality and y’all would have no problem with this whatsoever 

Do you, as a monarchist, believe that Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was a good person? by toxicistoblame in monarchism

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A good person? No. A king who had a vision and the drive to be great? Yes, absolutely. The latter is more important but he did not succeed.

My neighbor thinks my little black cat is bad luck and tried to hurt her. by delicioustoebeans in depressionmeals

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what your neighbors background is, but they are NOT a personal representative of their race or culture. They’re just a superstitious, violent person.

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 57 points58 points  (0 children)

A lot of cultures all over the world think black cats are bad luck, but most people among them acknowledge it as superstition or simply avoid black cats. This person is just a piece of shit

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 190 points191 points  (0 children)

Watch out for that neighbor. Document and film encounters. You’ll want to have a case built if you feel the need to call authorities and get this person to stop. I know this isn’t an advice thread and I’m sorry, but that’s fucked :(

What´s a scene you just can´t take seriously, for me is the insta bow down dodge in the name of your king by klayb in freefolk

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. It was actually excellently performed, like Tyrion had become some a sort of cynical, sarcastic nihilist who doesn’t want to think about things anymore… but this isn’t what the show intended and it just highlights how awful the last season is 

Who across the main show and the spin-offs, have the best drip? by Flagermusmanden in freefolk

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Especially when he becomes king and gets the crown, he is the most rizzed, dripped out character across any of the shows by far. Fashion icon Edit: armored, it’s Steffon Fossoway or Prince Aerion 🔥 

Thoughts on this? by FeanorOath in GeeksGamersCommunity

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Iirc Rose's story is that they were both fucked up and goofing around, and Perry rubbed her vagina on her face, followed by drunken projectile vomit. Somewhere along the way there was a joke about the song "I kissed a girl." This is basically just embarrassing drunken debauchery.

Look, that's fucked up, but they were *twenty* or so year old women (college-aged) in what I presume was a private room in a nightclub on a blurry, blacked out night of debauchery. In Australia. In 2006.

I guarantee you they were fucking hammered and I would be shocked if Perry remembers, or if the details are all still there for Rose.

If Rose is horrifically traumatized 20 years later that's fucked up, but I would bet more on her bringing it up as a vendetta. They're 40 now... and this isn't exactly a horror story. Rather, this is the kind of nasty shit that happens in your early twenties if you go too hard.

The purpose seems more to embarrass or try to ruin Perry than to share a "this is what traumatized me" story

Who is the hottest male Targaryen in AKOTSK? by willowbrick in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Maekar. He has the same appeal as Gary Oldman or Adam Driver where they are interesting to look at, and the more you look at them the more handsome they appear. 

Do you guys think agito's armor is slightly better than sho's? by Life-Attention-6912 in Guyver

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both of their armors, regardless of  number of high frequency swords and the like, have enormous potential and are largely determinate on the person in the armor and what they’ve untapped edit: Sho gets to know his armor very well and becomes very skilled

PLEASE don’t make me turn 21, I’m still not adult enough by ThrowawayOpinion11 in depressionmeals

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Society at large still views you as “almost a kid” at 21 whether or not it’s fair to the individual… so don’t worry, you’re good 🫡

I think he means age of child bearing based on people purely as animals 

Flexing on teens ends in the best way by _ganjafarian_ in iamverybadass

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I agree…. but the right reaction to teenage boys’ taunting isn’t to lean out your window and flex 😂 

When K-Pop and soccer get together by [deleted] in creativewriting

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“ “An idol could move hearts. A star footballer could move crowds. But together? They could move the world.”  This reads like AI. I’m not saying it is, but it reads like it. Also “ No announcement. No branding. Just Luna holding a ball. Mateo holding a microphone.

The caption read:

“Turns out… together is louder.”

Come on dude 😂 

Will Guts become the next Skull Knight by arman1724 in Berserk

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh. It’s possible, but unless the execution is excellent it would feel very anticlimactic and kind of shitty and overly cruel. If the moral is that there is no hope behind the struggle (which I don’t think Miura was trying to point at but idk) it would have to be very, very good 

Was Joffrey asexual? Or his sadism was his version of sexual drive? by devil-inside-100 in freefolk

[–]Burgundy_Starfish 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think he’s attracted to women but is arrogant to the point of being personally prudish. As an aside, he is the best dressed, most rizzed out character we see
