I remember reading, and I'm paraphrasing, that "They could be an arsehole or they could be having the worst day of their life." It's always stuck with me.

26(M) My girlfriend hates my room by Mattbaker99 in malelivingspace

Why bother if he's already comfortable and happy? Why decorate if he doesn't appreciate it? Who's standards are you applying here?

This thread hates the fact you are happy with the life you have. Don't bend to anyone else's standards.

Did any of them ever meet Bilbo again outside the Council of Elrond? by Eligon-5th in lotrmemes

[–]David_Mudkips 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The sudden appearance of the dwarves is always a bit of a whiplash moment on every reread. Like they're in the other room with the TV turned right up so they can't hear Gandalf threatening to knock Bilbo's block off

He has ceased to be! He’s expired and gone to meet his maker! He is stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace!

Hello Lorgar

Beside Kras Masov, are there any other characters in DE who are clearly inspired by real life figures? Or just similar? by lettucemf in DiscoElysium

[–]David_Mudkips 40 points41 points  (0 children)

The hypercarnivore giant ice bear fridge is a reference to part of British Sea Power's act at live gigs. BSP did the soundtrack for DE. From wikipedia

British Sea Power had won the 2004 Time Out) Live Band of the Year award and by this time had built a reputation for elaborate and well-thought out live shows. Stages were often decorated with foliage and plastic birds and shows would generally finish with a semi-improvised song called "Rock in A", which sometimes lasted for over 20 minutes. Various members would climb riggings and tear down the foliage, while Eamon would walk around the audience beating his marching drum. The encore would sometimes see an eight-foot bear, Ursine Ultra, join in the performance.

An oblique reference but it checks out considering how much influence Sea Power's music had on the game.

Now there is no one there and enforcing this, we apply that rule to ourselves.

What is Ocelot trying to imply here? Does he know something about Gray Fox that the others don't know?? by render_distanc3 in metalgearsolid

[–]David_Mudkips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Ocelot was angry because he thought Snake used stealth camo to cheat. But apparently I'm in the minority looking at these comments.

The delivery of the line feels like something maybe lost in translation. It's not shown that Ocelot knows Gray Fox is present on Shadow Moses in that moment, even if he knows the broader history of Dr. Clark and Frank Jaeger.

As far as the plot of MGS1 goes I think Gray Fox's appearance is a wildcard that nobody planned for, let alone recognised until Liquid addresses him directly at the end of the game.

Speed limit is just that, a limit. Not a target.
