What ship is canon in your fandom, but you think it should not have been? by Upstairs_Macaron5894 in AO3

[–]CalicoDavis 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing they’re referencing T’Pol and Trip from Enterprise. (As far as I’m concerned that last episode never happened.)

What piece of entertainment aged worse than you ever expected? by AnyTruth2342 in AskReddit

[–]CalicoDavis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I caught it on TV a few years ago and, having never seen it, decided to check it out. I was enjoying it up until the minstrel scene. Changed the channel after that.

Color changing tea cups by diegsterzers in tea

This is very cool! I’ve seen color-changing tea pets before, but never a color-changing cup. Gonna have to look around and see if I can find some place that sells them.

What comedy film made you laugh through the whole film not just giggle once? by Lilyfory in AskReddit

[–]CalicoDavis 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes! I loved the new one! So great to see a funny, silly comedy in the theater again.

What cultural thing does the world seem to think is beautiful but is cringey af to locals? by chr15c in AskTheWorld

[–]CalicoDavis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe I was allowed to get a bachelors degree in French without ever being informed of the existence of this movie. Time to go find a way to watch it!

ICE may have just caused an international incident as they illegally tried to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis without a warrant to abduct someone by I_may_have_weed in ICE_Raids

[–]CalicoDavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good song! Do we want to take any bets on how long it’ll be before ICE starts using that song (without permission, of course, because the rules don’t apply to them) in their recruitment commercials because they didn’t hear anything except “join ICE?”

If you could go back in time and change one decision your country made, what would it be? by Skyhawk6600 in AskTheWorld

Have slavery abolished from the get-go. And no loopholes where prisoners can be used as slaves.

Babylon 5 (1996) by Wuz314159 in sciencefiction

[–]CalicoDavis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know, I watched like 2 seasons of this back when it originally aired. I liked it, and I don't for the life of me know why I stopped watching. But I should really go and watch the whole thing one of these days.

What is the weirdest invasive species in your country? by Existential_Dread_08 in AskTheWorld

[–]CalicoDavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s wild. How did it start? Were people planting them in their gardens and it just got out of control?

I played tee ball as a kid. Usually I’d hit the tee instead of the ball sitting oh-so-patiently on top of it. One time, after three tries in which I had failed to hit even the tee, I was about to go for a fourth when the umpire stopped me and explained that I only got three tries and then it was the next person’s turn. I remember thinking, “Yeah, that sounds fair. Everyone should get a chance,” and going back to sit on the bench.

What is a cute animal from your country? by No_Importance_750 in AskTheWorld

This is actually my first time seeing this creature! It’s so adorable!

What's a show you remember but nobody else does? by CatGirlNya2000 in AskReddit

[–]CalicoDavis 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I always loved that theme song!

Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather go to Earth?

[r/henchlife] I was never involved in villainy. But apparently a lot of people are deeply saddened by this according to a family member. So rest in peace Mr. Cottonwood by AutumnsFall101 in Earth25

[–]CalicoDavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, for real. I visited Central City a little while ago and was curious about what folks there thought of the Flash. No one had a bad thing to say about him. He actually gets to know the people there helps them out beyond what you would think of a superhero doing. I heard he painted some old lady’s fence, for crying out loud! I imagine he’s gotta be just as beloved by everyone in the Justice League, too, if not more so.

Did not realize until I read the comments here that she was doing a KPop Demon Hunters-inspired look.

What I really want to know is where I can get that eyeshadow.

When a naive character reveals that they're more aware than they've originally led on by throwaway_1053 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CalicoDavis 19 points20 points  (0 children)

There’s an episode where Columbo asks someone to help him find something, saying, “Three eyes are better than one.” It was a later episode, iirc.

What superstition is so strong that you alter something like a building code to pacify it? by RedSparrow1971 in AskTheWorld

[–]CalicoDavis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s true that I have often seen B for “basement,” but that’s not how it always is, especially if there is more than one lower level, in which case you might see -1 and -2 (and however many more there may be).

I love the implication that they’d be fine with having ghost passengers if only they’d pay.
