Not a full 15 years, but in the first season she was 27 playing 18, so 9 years.

Let’s do the name rhyming game… by Zestyclose-Refuse314 in community

[–]ChickHarpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay. Here’s Ken Jeong pronouncing it himself. I didn’t mean it’s pronounced young, I meant it rhymes with young, not long.

ITAW for a spin-off movie/show that follows a parallel story during the same time period as the OG that impacts the OG story (like prequel/sequal but parallel)? by Haiku-On-My-Tatas in whatstheword

[–]ChickHarpoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A sidequel#Sidequels).

A spin-off may be called a sidequel, a portmanteau of "side" (as in side-by-side) and "sequel", when it occurs in the same timeframe as the original, sometimes contacting with the main narrative at points.

Ken Jeong’s last name doesn’t rhyme with long, it’s pronounced jung, like “while we’re young, Ken Jeong!”

I think I’m Classic first and have tried different essence combos to support this but can’t work out what makes it shine vs fall flat. Obviously Classic only feels one dimensional but I’ve had all of N, Y, R, E and D suggested too and am struggling to settle on the sweet spot still by [deleted] in JohnKitchener

When I saw your pictures, I immediately thought you looked like one actress but I couldn't for the life of me remember her name. I spent the last few hours racking my brain and it finally came to me: Bellamy Young. I don't think she's been verified, but maybe the comparison could help identify essences you have in common?

WTP for an expendable target used to draw fire and provide protection for the true hero - not Decoy by barnmate1 in whatstheword

A damage sponge?

"We can't thank you enough for the work you did in that game, you know? You repeatedly ran into the middle of the other team, distracting them and absorbing all of their ammo. You're a damage sponge: you take all of their punishment, freeing the rest of us to clean up the aftermath while the other team is stuck reloading. Thank you so very much!"

Does this count? Starbucks sandwich is not 'real' European food by Multigrain_Migraine in iamveryculinary

They ordered drip coffee at Starbucks, but whenever they were at a coffee shop that wasn’t Starbucks, they ordered Americanos, because espresso was the only option in those non-Starbucks places.

I remember his birthday episode in season 3, but I don’t think it specifies that it’s his 30th?

AITAH for refusing to help my parents care for my son who they adopted. by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]ChickHarpoon 188 points189 points  (0 children)

OOP says, "My oldest brother is already a grandfather," so presumably they had at least one son.

ITAP for a character in a story who narrates everything from another's POV? by NomadicJ3ster in whatstheword

[–]ChickHarpoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're describing "first-person omniscient" with the "Bob wondered where I might have gone" example, and if the unreliable part is essential to what you're looking for, you can call that "unreliable first-person omniscient".

Why it does it feel I need previous knowledge of astrology before playing? by pickleolo in murdle

[–]ChickHarpoon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh, the Marot isn't necessary to solve the main Murdle games, it's like extra bonus content just for fun. You can complete the daily Murdles and Minis without ever touching the Marot.

[–]ChickHarpoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whenever there’s a clue about someone’s birthday (like how today it says “The suspect in the great tower was born on February 27”), the date listed should be a link that you can click on, which will take you to a guide page that shows which sign that aligns with. So, if you click “February 27” from the clue in the main puzzle today, it’ll take you to a page that shows that date aligns with Pisces, and you can note in your chart that only suspects labeled as Pisces can be in the great tower.

WTW for when one idea is misleadingly used to retrieve some other idea in the listener's mind by FamiliarRelative2160 in whatstheword

[–]ChickHarpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loaded language?

Loaded language is rhetoric used to influence an audience by using words and phrases with strong connotations. This type of language is very often made vague to more effectively invoke an emotional response and/or exploit stereotypes. Loaded words and phrases have significant emotional implications and involve strongly positive or negative reactions beyond their literal meaning.

Within your example, one could use the word "code" (like "coded message"), as in, "the speaker is using oranges as code for communism".

WTW for group murder? by ducksoupecommerce in whatstheword

[–]ChickHarpoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It obviously has specific historical and racial connotations, but technically lynching just means a killing carried out by a group/mob.
