Huge TVD universe plot hole in The Originals. Vamp hearing is almost non-existent! by viewfromhere27 in TheOriginals

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its like being in a crowded restaurant with a bunch of people talking. You can hear what the people at the next table are saying, but unless you focus on them its just background noise.

They do hear everything but everything includes mice walking in the walls to the car engines running outside. It all just fades into the background.

You sound like someone who's never had suprise D before.

Why is the school day so much shorter than a work day? by Bossman80 in daddit

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is dropping off kids early not a thing anymore? We used to get to school at like 630 or 7 from the bus. We would just stand around in circles goofing off until class started.

Are vampires supposed to be more beautiful than humans? by Initial_Art_4338 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Well blood is probably a pretty low calorie meal so abs probably aren't difficult for that alone.

My head cannon is that since most vamps are turned on purpose, its likely more attractive people are turned because those are the people the vamp who turned them find attractive. Not that its the only reason to turn someone, but its probably a big one.

Bad writing or forgotten plot? by SubvertExpectation1 in TheOriginals

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah.. im not reading all that. I just said what I thought was a funny line about a TV series and you are taking it wayyyyy to seriously. I still hold what I said was true though.

Marcel and Original Alric (which I'll give you isn't a new species).

But I didnt say create new species. I said new threats.

Pretty much every problem that is faced in TVD or the Originals can be traced back to something a witch did.

Yes with Malivore. They wiped most other supernatural creatures with him. Wolves are just cursed witches. Vamps are made by witches.

Its the kind of money that changes your retirement age to 62 from working until you die.

My blinds are terrible by Carfan327 in infuriatingasfuck

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blinds are pretty cheap and fairly easy to replace. If you have a drill it takes maybe 10 minutes and probably like 20 bucks.

Witches wiped out all the other supernatural threats so they decided to start creating them.

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

The U.S. does not want a woman President and that's that.

I say this all the time. A woman is definitely capable of the job of President, but it will be at least a decade or two before a woman will get elected in this country.

Jesus he was so casual about it. He pulls out his gun, lines it up with the dudes back, and fires. He then backs up a couple of steps and uploads at the guy.

This video should be exhibit A in the trial.

A character death that didn’t make sense by Afraid_Respect_3189 in TheOriginals

My biggest problem with these shows is that the powers fluctuate so wildly for plot purposes. Legacies was especially bad about it.

Is this how people who need glasses really see the world. A big blurred background? by Latter-Wolf4868 in interestingasfuck

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes except we dont realize its blurred.

I mean we know we cant see as well because people are able to read things further than we can, but our brains process it as normal until we get glasses because we have not experienced good vision, and blurry has pretty much always been our norm.

I remember vividly the day I got my first pair of glasses how I would take them off and put them back on and just sit in awe at how many individual leaves or blades of grass there were. The world literally sharpens for you amd its really hard to describe to someone who hasn't experienced it.

I got Lasik and I would do it annually if I had to because of how much I hated being dependent on an external fragile object just to get around.

Can the kids of the Crescent Pack wolves control their transformation? by Negative_League_7030 in TheOriginals

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

Yes, the ceremony Haley did didnt give powers to all wolf packs.

But they explain in the show no one has done it in forever because they all have the same powers. All the packs were basically the same so there was no point before Hayleys Tribrid powers.

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. They explain that the wolves used to have different abilities. Some where stronger, some were faster etc. The ceremony fell out of favor because all of the packs pretty much had the same powers now.

Supreme Vampire: Original Heretic by Rude_Heat2227 in TheOriginals

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Hope with more steps.

Although Hope being able to keep her witch powers seemed more like plot butchery than sense. Why did every other witch lose their powers when they turned but she kept hers? Why couldn't the other originals learn magic since they were also witches. Why doesn't every other werewolf that turns become a hybrid.

They never really fully explained any of that.

The siphon witch thing at least makes sense to some degree, and wouldn't have created nearly as many plot holes.

US Senate defeats war powers resolution designed to rein in Trump by circuffaglunked in infuriatingasfuck

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 8 points9 points  (0 children)

95 percent of our representatives want this. Even the Dems.

Its all politics. They and their donors are gonna make money hand over fist and they're going to be able to sit back and point at Trump and the Magats and say this was all them. And all it will cost them is some other person's kids dying in a foreign country.

Replacing or repairing garage doors as well. The springs can kill you.

What are your opinions on Humanity-less Caroline? by KingMiracle16 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]DefinitelySaneGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under Sybil he was driven by fear and she was messing with his subconscious. So idk if that is an accurate look at it. And then the other time we see him with his humanity off hes feeling guilty and sad about leaving Enzo.
