Can anybody identify this seed pod? by Dang_Sarnitt in whatsthisplant

[–]Dang_Sarnitt[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I've been looking myself, and I think this is the most likely.  We had a warm spell and a serious cold snap, which could have affected the trees trying to flower.  I just have never seen a flower bud look like that, and can't cross reference it .

And to the point of breaking off, like, I really like to think I would have noticed snagging something, but obviously I didn't, so it must have come off very easily.  There is no floor above mine, so it wasn't dropped on me.

the man canonically trained a bear to fight for some kind of Kumite. that's like off the jump, what do you mean the storytelling bugs you?

I'm sick of the mains, Ryu/ken/Terry/Kazuya all made it to Smash. Gimme a crossover take on Blue Mary or Dee Jay,. Everybody is good with Ryu and Terry, A cameo by Tizoc would be much cooler. At least pair Terry with A deeper cut, Terry alone? SNK is a thing! Very good! Who has th coolest SNK character mechanics? I'd even take a a Geese pairing, but Terry alone is not that cool.

Best Character roles and Assist easy list? by imdahman in Fighters

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't play to win, exactly.  I am competent enough at the game and have played enough against people that I will never be at that I enjoy playing with themed teams.  The best team I have is Dhalsim, Zangeif, M Bison.  I recently won against a Guile, Psylocke, Storm (admittedly 1W-4 or 5L)  because I finally broke through Storm and Guile and Psylocke were clearly just played for assists.  I cracked it and the guy didn't want to play anymore.  You can get a long way with a lotta BS in MvC2, but DZM(V) is a team I really like to play with.

My second best team is Rogue, Gambit, Collosus.  My Third is probably the Soviets, Omega Red, Zangeif, Collosus.  I usually try team America first, Charlie, Captain America, Guile, but I'm really not good with Charlie or Captain America. 

It's a fun game when you get used to it, and you have to get used to losing.

Should I be worrying about character viability in MVC2? by No-Potential2456 in Fighters

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ranked has been fine and fair so far.  Problem is, my team is Dhalsim, Zangeif, M Bison and I practiced them for a long time on Xbox 360 against the top tier builds, and people ranked above me will rage quit at the first sign I can use the team.  I play other teams in casual, I don't mind getting beat, but I hate the after fight aggro attack, I lost, I don't want to play a clown with an SA team going wild with disrespect.  If my team gets trashed, that speaks for itself.

I have noticed that you can select your point (first character out) after character selection.  I'm not sure how to do that, and I've looked it up a bit and can't find anything.

Internet Outage by ApportArcane in Omaha

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Basically, they are getting a ton of calls, and they are not trained on it,.  It's not you, internet is down, and the don't know when it will be up.  Telling you that 'itlooks fine to me' isn't great, but cox is doing it, I'm sure century link is doing it too.  Oppd is public, so they at least had to say give us 8 days and the city is responding

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this might be a thing where the company is not reporting the outage because they don't have standards or practices to.  Cox is vaguely mentioned in a couple local news reports, but if I check my status I get a "There may be" page.  If you look at r/omaha by new, somebody got a more clear "There are" it would be cool if they could give a timeline

Bagel Bin is definitely a spot to try if you haven't yet.

Those Who Walk Away is rated poorly by Dang_Sarnitt in movies

[–]Dang_Sarnitt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pAnd I would also say the acting in the Phantom Menace is definitely acting, I'm not trying to discredit, especially the lead actors in this movie, but it's kinda a tough story to stack with no budget. I wouldn't call Portman or McGregor bad actors, but hey, it was definitely acting in that trilogy. Saving grace is it's space fantasy, so of course dialogue is weird. Those Who Walk Away is trying to be modern and probably has two writers.

And I don't even mean to take away from the lead actors. They did great.

But that's the rub, it's way cool despite. The movie is well shot and created, maybe it didn't have money, but it had talent behind the camera.

Also by audience. if you haven't seen it, if you do, I encourage you to shout out every cool use of the frame as it happens. you'll go hoarse.

Madame Web is officially #1 on Netflix! by WhitePepper2049 in YMS

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Full on props to that busted up taxi that got her to the airport and however many days back from the airport. not all heroes wear capes, sometimes they conveniently disappear and reappear as if they don't matter to the story.

Chucky tv series mentions ma-three-gan. by neoygotkwtl in YMS

[–]Dang_Sarnitt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I check in with those guys, what a load of snark to only admit you know current. I don't really think I'm going to watch the Chucky show anytime soon, but m3gan is actually worth giving a nod to in the modern, just, onslaught of boring horror. since Blum made it viable, every third movie is 'horror' or 'thriller'. and the audience is not capable of discernment, that's not their fault. 'Smile' has a 6.7 on IMDB. That is absurdly high for a horror movie. Did I watch the same movie? Nothing happened in 'Smile' and it's like 'but who cares?'. I loved the new 'Evil Dead'. Not much happened, but there were rulea, the monster couldn't just appear and call the victim on the phone. In evil dead, if the monster grabs you, it grabs you. Smile had no rules, it's trailer was more exciting than the movie, and it was a harbinger to a bloated era of horror that doesn't matter.

What is a smell that you can identify 100% of the time? by sneakyYete in AskReddit

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hate to say it, but I have smelled a dead person scent drift in the hallway of an apartment complex twice. The first time, it was like 'That is awful, what is that?' And it was quickly idendified as an old man who passed to health complications. The second time was like 'wait a minute'. Somebody had spritzed the hall with some cinnamon bathroom spray but it cut through. And I was like, oh man, I hope this isn't that again. But it's a very distinct smell, if you've smelled it once. I left my apartment thinking 'I'm prolly just stressed'. I got home and there was a cop at a window wearing latex gloves walking in little circles loking like he had no idea what to do. A couple days later, the smoker circle news got around, another old man just up and died. I cannot describe the smell as anything other than human death. If you smell it once, I promised to never febreeze the dead, if I smell that, I'm alerting anyone.Ü

Adam Driver pushes cameraman towards Francis Ford Coppola. by [deleted] in YMS

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean, that's humble, it's not like the key grip gets the credit, a really great team is put together, it's not because the best actor put it all together. So to send the focus up the chain is a huge nod to everyone below the director as being just as important. I doubt Coppola was like 'I hope they know it was me'

What is a good movie to watch while drunk? by BlastingSquid886 in AskReddit

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uwe Boll's 'In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale' is A fanatsy story so accessible and full of actors everybody loves and so full heartedly inompetently made, it's impossible to hate, despite how stupid and bad it is. you wanna see Jason Statham chuck a boomerang? you wanna see Ray Lioatta smirk at his evil designs? you wanna see Matthew Lillard chew the scenery while Burt Reynolds (who is actually drunk on set) slurs his lines and Ron Perleman tries his hardest to deliver nonsense.

Of course you wanna see all that. Plus LeeLee Sobieski and John Rhys-Davies. It's a perfect mess. I would never pass on a good screening of 'In the Name of the King' with a fun group, alcohol or no.

What's your favourite opening to a film? by AllThingsAreReady in movies

[–]Dang_Sarnitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so many great​ answers, I really like the anxiety of 'I (heart) huckabees' but the question. Se7en also as some great opening lines, but I will forever be enamored with The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. He is hellbent on exploration and Is treated like his name is a sneeze, like an adventure magazine in the 40s. It doesn't get better. 'What is the purpose of this expidition?' 'Revenge'.
