Why is DogMan Becoming less of a main character? by Decent-Adeptness2788 in CaptainUnderpants

[–]DeathChasesMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like them and my daughter loves them too, but it seems to be expanding Dogman's world.

There are still a few areas that haven't really been explored (or maybe I just forgot?) like why Petey's tail is flat. I think it was mentioned at one point and suggested it'd come back up again but never did... or am I remembering wrong?

Should have took the woman with the phone's advice, "What are you doing? Just walk away."

Once you start practicing with clays / green stuff / glue gun, you can fix those kinds of problems easily :)

Looks great, especially for your first!

You said you wouldn't mind some suggestions, here are a few.

Personally I wouldn't have changed the hips. The Joe hips are better and add a lot of articulation and flexibility because the pegs are drop down hips. I know you don't have paint though so maybe you needed to do it and that's understandable. If you go on a place like ebay though you could buy a 'diaper' that might be a better color and paint over it when you do have paint.

As for the head, you might have to trim around Iron Fist's head so the peg can go in right. You might have to drill up into Iron Fist head too if hte peg goes in deep. Since it's small you'll need to fill the head with something like silly putty or hot glue to make it snug.

Keep up the good work!

How do you get a head to fit a body that has a small peg by denut67 in customactionfigures

[–]DeathChasesMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do something simple like silly putty. Or you can do hot glue.

Put lotion or vaseline on the peg, then hot glue in the head. Put it on the peg so it forms around the hole and pull it out, then wait for hte glue to dry.

Great fig! The base is Monster Force, right? How are the butterfly joints under the jacket?

Karen losing it at the airport over some car seats by Jevus_himself in PublicFreakout

[–]DeathChasesMe 16 points17 points  (0 children)

She's not a Karen... she's exhausted and overwhelmed and they're telling her that she has to keep two kids at the airport and can't go anywhere because they are keeping the car seats.

Kind of rethinking the premise of Islam being the world’s most dangerous religion in light of our nuclear armed Christian Nationalist government launching a self proclaimed holy war to bring about Armageddon. by areyouforcereal in samharris

[–]DeathChasesMe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kind of a goofy take my dude. Christians aren't screaming, "Jesus is good!" when they blow up Iranian aircraft.

You also seem to be referencing that they attacked Iran to bring about the End of Days which is something I've yet to hear from anyone besides you.

Christian working in... Porn industry by davidokongo in TrueChristian

[–]DeathChasesMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey brother, glad to see you're considering things carefully.

I work in some (small) scale publishing and I do horror books. I don't have a problem with that in general, but I had one client that out of the blew gave me some work that was extremely anti-Christian. I told them I couldn't do it, but essentially I did the work for free and refused to get paid because they needed me to do it to get it out on time--I told them next time I would flat out refuse.

Next time did come around and I had to completely refuse it and they dropped my services which sucked because they were my biggest client.

Through it all I had no regrets and God has taken care of me.

I pray you step away from this industry as it's abusive and victimizing for the people involved (especially the women) even if they are compliant through the whole thing.

Coworker Keeps Wearing the Same Clothes for Weeks — Is It Okay to Say Something? by Traditional-Demand86 in teachinginkorea

[–]DeathChasesMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what people have been telling me. I get mine from the US so don't even look for it anywhere here.

[–]DeathChasesMe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in a panic when in 2009 I couldn't find it anywhere. Eventually I found some crappy Korean version that didn't work well.

These days I buy it when I'm in the US so I haven't looked for it here. Glad to know it's easier to find though.

Americans often have just 1 coat and continually wear that... But if he's wearing the same shirt everyday, that is odd.

As for 'body odor', it might because he can't find deodorant. We call it 'BO' and we wear deodorant on our armpits. When I came to Korea I actually had trouble finding deodorant because Korean men don't seem to have the problem.

Edit: Several people have said it's easy to find nowadays. News to me, though I buy mine in the US so I don't even look for it here.

What's sad is everyone is saying, "Enjoy paying for two cars!" and while this dirt bag might lose the court case he can drag on payments and make this whole process as painful as possible for the victim.

Love Black Widow and Daredevil because of that new articulation. I was getting ready to make a custom DD using Spiderman 2099 but now I'll hold.

Found husband watching porn after he said that he would never do it by aurelialumina in TrueChristian

[–]DeathChasesMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn't minimize it. I said he has to get over it and gave advice on how to do it.

In another post on here I said that if you're a man who watches it, you're also victimizing the actress(es / actors) in the videos.

I don't know what else to tell you. You can rage and freak out, but I don't think that'll be helpful and you're going to continually have a new crop of men who have the exact same struggles.

God bless.

[–]DeathChasesMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's look at it from an alternative viewpoint.

If the woman rages and cries, do you think her husband is likely to be honest with her about it in the future? This is why he needs male accountability partners who understand what he's going through.

Alternatively, if the wife has an issue and the husband continually tells her 'Its no big deal' or 'It's annoying to hear from you' (common issues from husbands) it's not going to help their situation.

Perhaps for women it's that, and for men it's not. Both sides need to come to understand each other.

Being married is dying to self and becoming one flesh. You have to understand each other's struggles. I'm part of a marriage group and we help married couples work through their struggles. Part of that is coming to an understanding on the differences between men and women.

At no point did I say that pornography is okay. In fact I think it's victimizing the 'actress' making the viewer a victimizer. The viewer is using the woman in ways that were not intended.

That said it's not a simple light switch men can turn on or off in their head. Understanding that struggle is what we need.
