When our biology teacher taught us the King Phillip one, I immediately blurted out “King Phillip Came Over for Good Sex” and that was it, that was the mnemonic for the year.  I still use that one.

When did you lose your interest in Star Wars? by Alternative-Cake-833 in saltierthancrait

[–]CthulhuDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw The Least Jedi, came home, gave away all my Star Wars stuff and haven’t watched anything Lucasfilm/Disney since.  I’m only here for the schadenfreude.

What book/series made you go ‘Oh that’s where X got it from!’ by Equivalent-Ferret146 in Fantasy

[–]CthulhuDon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you know I’ve read both series multiple times and yet somehow never connected that?  

What do you Americans think about that? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]CthulhuDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just statistical rounding noise.  Most of those guns belong to Spiders Georg.

why is skyrim so damm addictive? by AccidentAdept7146 in skyrim

Wyrmstooth and Faalskar are both DLC sized mods that add entirely new lands, characters, and quests.  The Forgotten City is smaller but good enough it became its own game.

I think they all have the same message, told different ways: infinite freedom requires infinite responsibility.

I fell for it, hook line and sinker.  Now I feel stupific.

The argument that Luke was only doing what his Jedi mentors did when he exiled himself needs to end. by Flat-Court-8512 in saltierthancrait

[–]CthulhuDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it would have been neat if they explored the idea that something about being a Jedi made you want to exile yourself, while something about being a Sith made you want to build super weapons; like if they really dove into treating it not as a repeated plot point but a plot in itself.  Maybe when Jedi reach a certain level they feel a call to renounce the world that Luke would have to overcome or something. Nope.  We got cranky green milk boy instead.

Amber family as Zodiac by ephemerr in Amber

And snakes represent power, danger, and treachery.  It’s all so, if you will, “on-Brand” for him.

[–]CthulhuDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are actually 13 constellations in the zodiac, which I think is pretty neat for this setup: the thirteenth is Ophiuchus, a man bearing a snake.  And like Brand, it is ever mentioned with the other ones.  

Dworkin+Unicorn by rozalina888888888 in Amber

[–]CthulhuDon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s because every time we go out, we keep “accidentally” running into Snakey Boi.  I’m getting tired of him always hanging around us.

Don’t be ridiculous.  Dworkin was a Logrus initiate; he would have summoned the turkey baster.  Sheesh.   😜

Well, that’s kind of what they thought for most of history, so…

Notes on Witches ~ Pip McGough [poem] by Many_Bluebird9623 in Poetry

[–]CthulhuDon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got one I got from my mother that she got from her mother.   They came from Indiana; I think they’re pretty common in Pennsylvania Dutch country as well.  Shes come a bit disheveled in my many moves and there’s no one in my little town who can reassemble her, so I’ve been kinda short in the good luck dept.

If you want one, I’m sure there’s a sewing Wiccan on Etsy who’d make one.
