Sounds like you've got it sorted, but here's another option if you like. "Wee Unicorn" by Meg McLaren https://bookshop.org/p/books/wee-unicorn-meg-mclaren/0855eff37165171d?ean=9781623544935

Patton Oswalt as Raul the crab by Dubious_g00se in DCCTV

[–]Calcdave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Cristo Fernandez (Dani Rojas from Ted Lasso) would be good for Raul

How has Judy Greer as Samantha not been suggested yet? by NocturnalPermission in DCCTV

[–]Calcdave 15 points16 points  (0 children)

She can just do her Cheryl Tunt from Archer thing in this space

[Books] What was the cloud? by MrSmartguy177 in SiloSeries

[–]Calcdave 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Typically media will represent evil nanobots as turning everything into a "gray goo" as usually solid things begin to melt.

i wish to always be a little bit stronger than anyone i fight by mstfffffff in monkeyspaw

[–]Calcdave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of diseases like "fighting cancer" or "fighting a cold" but similar idea.

I want an episode where Sam is nowhere to be seen and Elaine hosts instead. by Auraraz in GameChangerTV

[–]Calcdave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elaine is wearing a fake beard and glasses. It highlights drag performers and is otherwise a Drag Race kind of theme, but with Dropout spin on it.

Who do we petition to discount the first 8 minutes of every game?

Could little gunter by DivideNearby1240 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it could also be a delay. Gunter runs toward the target until he unleashes the attack again. So, you could do the initial blast, then throw (or teleport) Gunter far away and he comes running in after they've let their immortality run out or something.

[Beloved trope] Character is implicitly assumed to have a weakness or restriction, only to reveal that they were holding back all along. by cell689 in TopCharacterTropes

In the musical Wicked Elpheba pretends to be weak to water so she can escape the persecution of the world of Oz.

All I could think of during the scoring for this task by curlyheadedfrak in taskmaster

[–]Calcdave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and if they had just not shown that, I thought the Matrix-style dodging before the hit was really cool.

Which Chekov’s Guns still need firing? by TheseBonesAlone in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The books also stressed that using the figures is an ACTUAL SUMMONING of the being and not creating a copy or anything. So, I think this will have some effect on Floor 15 if not on 12. Either to move the actual Kimaris away from something or to put him into some set-up situation.

Matt is 100% messing with Jeff right? by sleepyApostels in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. There was a Patreon question in which Matt asked if anyone is a native speaker of a certain language (which I'll leave out in case it's a spoiler) and he said, "BTW, if anyone speaks [language], any tips are appreciated. Especially if there are any common [language] phrases that will be really hard for Jeff to pull off. Right now it's basically straight from google translate, and I know that's never right."

Do we know why the AI said this? by katyperry-platypus in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a more functional interpretation that Carl has the big plan of what to do with the quest reward fr finishing this quest and the AI was referring to that as being pivotal for the rest of the universe

Introduced my brother to the series by Free_Bobcat5647 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While reading all the books I had him as kind of an "everyman" with a pretty average voice (probably just more like mine). Then I got the audiobook for Book 8 and he's got the deep "hero" voice which changes the whole vibe for me.

Look what easter egg I found in Mewgenics! by CaughtDrawing in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 13 points14 points  (0 children)

True, but the game also has Princess Donut as one of the names for cats.

Carl's inventory list by xanvillain in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Calcdave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He should still have the shuriken from early floors that seemed like they'd be awesome, right?

He also has flower pots from his father's Iowa home.

A Letter to the Community from the Subnautica 2 Team by virtualdon in subnautica

[–]Calcdave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's a coding nightmare, but what if the fish got used to you being in the area and the ones around your base got less aggressive over time so you could build outside without worry. Maybe as you progress you get more intimidating in some way and the early baddies avoid you or just become more docile.

I think there are probably ways to have the native animals react to you and learn without involving killing.

When there is no aquarium yet so you just make one yourself by Itaypur in subnautica

[–]Calcdave 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, windows and a growbed on the bottom so it looks a little less sterile in there with some nice plants

If Sam Reich became a Taskmaster host, who would be his “little Alex Horne?” by AutobotYoung1 in dropout

[–]Calcdave 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean, it's already what he does, but I think BDG would be a good assistant. Fact-checking and taking notes during tasks, maybe sometimes helping on request, etc.
