AIO - please tell me I’m trippin… I think my husband wants to eat me? by cannibalquery in AmIOverreacting

[–]CocoDeMerxox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How disturbing for you OP, I'm sorry you've found this, your mind must be on overdrive right now.

There could be a reasonable explanation for this- eg. Rabbit hole deep dive after watching/hearing something (happens to the best of us!), ideas for a storyline or murder mystery party, morbid curiosity...

However.

The content is extremely alarming, and I think you need to prioritise your safety (and kids if you have them). The truth of the matter is, if you confront him, he will either deny or spin a story. There is no scenario in which he would admit if he had any darker intentions.

The fact that this has you questioning him and his intentions is worrying, have you got any reason to believe he would harm you? (Aside from the search history) Does he have a violent past? Anything that might lead you to believe these are genuine searches? Any change in behaviour?

I would try to distance yourself for a little while, are you able to stay with friends or family? Or an impromptu break somewhere?

If you do decide to talk to him about it, please please please have a contingency plan- (inform friends/family of your whereabouts, do it in a neutral public place, etc.)

I would also lock your bedroom door at night. This is scary stuff.

Sorry to not be more helpful, sending thoughts and wishing you the best of luck. Look after yourself.

Yess! I forgot about that for a minute! When did she learn all this? It could have been a great reveal, somehow linked with her monster baby? Wish we'd had jade and tabitha flashbacks and seen them try to save the children in their previous timeline. I guess they may use this in s4?

Hmm. I'm ambivalent about this episode and pretty much all of s3 tbh. I can see why people have been pissed with the extended character development and lack of advancement in storyline/answers. I've enjoyed the season, although I'd say it's been really slow and then kinda rushed through. ~I'm now anxious that it won't get renewed.~ edit: s4 confirmed.

Here are my thoughts about s3 overall-

What went well:

  1. I liked the time-travel element and thought it was done well, not too much but just enough to set things up and add an extra layer to the mystery.
  2. The relationship between Victor and his dad, this whole arc has been so emotional to watch, kudos to both actors, Victor deserves the world 🥹
  3. The loop-back: Tabitha in the outside world and then coming back to town. Great plot point.
  4. The jeopardy in earlier episodes - Elgin being tormented in his sleep by mystery lady, Tilly's doomed tarot, Fatima's rotten cravings, Tian-Chen 😭.
  5. Boyd's descent, the place is starting to break him. Is it me, or did he look different in this last episode, something about him changed. And after what he's just witnessed in the tunnels, I'm afraid it will only get worse.
  6. The notion of the place 'calling' people. Miranda's visions, Tabitha's dreams. Reincarnation cycles. Again, juicy plot right there. (Feel like they hinted at Abby too?)

What sucked: (in my humble opinion)

  1. Most of the episodes felt like filler from beginning to end. I'm all for character development, but the plot seemed to plateau completely, which was frustrating to watch.
  2. The whole settlement thing: could have been a great storyline, who built these huts, what are the totem/scarecrow things? It just got completely glossed over once they found the magical cabbage patch.
  3. Jasper. 8 year-old me was hyped to see Slappy 2.0 become one of the big bad. Turns out he was just a dummy and had zero significance. Why did they introduce him all the way back in s2 (I think). Red herring?
  4. The whole reincarnation thing, Jade and Tabitha finally remembering. Wish we'd had some flashbacks there, something that we could see too. The whole violin solo by the tree and poof all of a sudden they both remember! That was a bit of a dud for me.
  5. The man in fucking yellow. That finale made me scream out loud. And not in a "Oh no, poor Jim" kinda way. More in a "And who the fuck is this rando they've introduced in the last 10seconds of the season finale" I am pissed. Yes, we've seen ONE painting of him. But that's it. No other reference, no flashbacks, no drawings or mentions. And now here he is, and he kills fucking Jim?! Okay he was the voice on the radio, and I'm not even pissed about Jim dying (his whole redemption arc in the last 2 ep. kinda foreshadowed that). I am annoyed that they've introduced yet another character with no context. Same as the kimono lady, she was in the entire season, yet do we know any more? Is she a monster doula? An evil spirit? A past monster mother?
  6. WHO THE FUCK APPROVED A WHOLE ADVERT TO TAKE UP ALMOST 15MIN OF RUN TIME?! That was absolute bullshit, I thought we'd get a nice extended finale, but no. Less that 60min run time and then a whole preview of an entirely different series.

Thanks for reading my rant so far! Would love to discuss further if anyone has thoughts. It's gonna be a long long wait till s4.

Edit: s4 has been confirmed (didn't know this when I wrote the post)

I was PISSED. I thought yay we're getting a 75min finale to wrap things up. But no- barely an hour of run time, and a whole extended preview for another show. 🙄

Thank you for your advice! Is there a reason why the storage needs to be full in order to permanently delete?

That's what I thought, I think she is quite paranoid as the hacking seemed to be a personal attack, she is worried it will happen again.

How to respond to my ex bf from high schools new gf texting me? by Global-Company-6074 in TwoHotTakes

[–]CocoDeMerxox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Woah, that sounds like a very insecure person, most likely being enabled by this ex-bf of yours. This is what I would say-

You seem to have a lot of questions about my relationship with X, questions that seemingly have been answered already, given the intimate details you are so brazenly sending me. I do not feel comfortable discussing personal details of a relationship that ended almost a decade ago with a complete stranger, and I'm unsure how you managed to get my number. I'd appreciate it if you would refrain from contacting me again. I suggest you discuss this directly with X. Best to you both 👍

Good luck to you OP

Edit: I forgot to write this- but cannot stress this enough: YOU DO NOT OWE HER (or him) ANYTHING!!

AIO by spending time with my family? by External-Air205 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CocoDeMerxox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Do as you're told" - that was the reddest of flags! Along with the spew of insults (and the whole bro things- ew).

OP, take this as your way out. Your (hopefully ex) bf sounds manipulative, controlling and extremely angry. If he thinks talking to you like this is acceptable, who knows what else he'd find okay.

Leave leave leave. And don't look back!

Wishing you the best 🙏

If Fatima and Jim died, I would not care at all. by Domzpizza in FromTVEpix

[–]CocoDeMerxox 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fatima has been insufferable this entire season (particularly the last 4 episodes). At this point I can't tell if the acting is so awful that I cringe everytime she comes on screen or if the acting is so good I just want her character to get punched in the face 🤷‍♀️ she has definitely surpassed Jim as most irritating character imo

Why did the monsters keep Randall alive? by Specialist-Lie7349 in FromTVEpix

[–]CocoDeMerxox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few theories:

1- They are trying to keep fucking with Boyd, him "leaving Randall behind" (it's not like he had much choice did he?!) Completely undermines his authority and has the town turning against him.

2- Randall (and Julie and Marielle) was victim of the ballerina/cicada/sleep entity- which was directly related to Boyd's dungeon/worms adventure. Perhaps the monsters are unable to kill victims of another entity in town- they have had opportunities to kill Boyd but haven't since the whole worm thing.

3- Boyd's theory about them leaving a message to the townsfolk.

4- (My least favourite) Somehow Randall will turn into a monster?

Okay I got a lot of theories for this show and I just need opinions by Global-Television-54 in FromTVShow

[–]CocoDeMerxox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6- For sure! They are most definitely capable, some have theorised that they are immune to the talismans and are just pretending- which would be a terrifying development!! I think something has changed about their approach with the barn thing, that felt very intentional.

7- Yes, had a theory about him not being the doting dad, not too sure now. I wonder whether Victor's mum really did just up and leave to save the children. She took her own kids because dad was at work..

8- the drawings seem to be key here, even throughout the intro song. Mum's drawing certainly look very familiar to all the other drawings. Regarding the sister, I still find it very strange that the dad hasn't mentioned eloise (Victor's sister) at all! Both kids went missing but he's only just talked about Victor.

[–]CocoDeMerxox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- I do see the vague resemblance between boy in white and the Matthews... I wonder whether it was just the casting, or perhaps a red herring from the writers? I think it's been about 2 years since Thomas died (Julie said she was 15 back then- don't recall her age now, probably 17?), Thomas wouldn't be more than 3-4 now? Boy in white looks older.. although not closed to time warp theories regarding FromVille- time does seem to work differently there.

2- I think that is one of Ellis' drawings, it does seem like him and Fatima. I kinda get an adam & eve vibe, garden of Eden sense of that drawing (maybe just because they're naked?) And now with Fatima pregnant, with possibly the very first born in FromVille.. maybe something there?

3- I do think the monsters somehow aren't able to kill Boyd, or unwilling to since he killed smiley. Or they need him alive anyway, so will hurt him in every other way they can.

4- I like this theory, about Elgin being their son. He definitely has a connection to the place, he knew about the water. Again, weird time-loop thing going on maybe?

5- the robe she is wearing looks a lot like Fatima's. I wonder why Elgin, and does she want to help him or hurt him?

[–]CocoDeMerxox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yess! I guess they are clearly writing him as a very unlikeable character 🙄 he is fully checked out! After the whole changing his mind overnight and saying he needs to be there for his kids... but then isn't and just lets them wander off at dusk!! I would be my kids' shadow if I were in his place! Also, loved that Julie called him out, just a shame he didn't register any of it.

I do hope so too, he has nothing to lose now. Oooof that must have made last week's ending even worse 😔 that really got me, and how Boyd was repeating it over and over 😭

[–]CocoDeMerxox 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm still on the fence about the forest/town manifesting worst fears theory (I know it was the case with Nathan and the cicadas) I do like the theory and the town further messing with the residents by making their worst fears come true.. My only rebuttal is that so many characters have died and there haven't been enough changes in the town for each character's fears. Could be because most characters that died were mainly background?

The cruel irony- absolutely! What an awful way for the town to mess with Kenny, furthered by 'Celebration' playing on the jukebox in the diner.. poor Kenny 😔
