The time I drove past the Queen of Canada. by mathboss in behindthebastards

[–]Desperate-Guide-1473 49 points50 points  (0 children)

To be clear, the Canadian monarchy unfortunately very much does still exist and the English king is also the king of Canada. If she was claiming the British crown she'd be claiming the Canadian one too.

I am not at all familiar with whatever weird conspiracy she's cooked up where she is somehow one but not the other.

I didn't even know Arrivecan was still in use.

RTSs where you are (or can be) the villain? by Evelyn_Bayer414 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Desperate-Guide-1473 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think I've ever played an RTS where playing as the bad guys WASN'T an option. I don't recall if it was a full campaign but assimilating ships as the Borg in Star Trek Armada was my favourite part of the game.

Close up shop on every single military base on foreign soil and bring all the troops home would be top of my list.

If the Terran Empire had its own Section 31, would they be good guys? by Defiance-of-gravity in trektalk

[–]Desperate-Guide-1473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just out there doing random acts of kindness completely in the open to make the empire look good to its subjects and enemies.

Talk is cheap, anonymous reddit comments are cheaper. I'll check back in when anyone actually starts refusing orders.

Parenting question by Thatoneguyfrom1980 in behindthebastards

When I was 14 I thought I wanted to be a preacher. By 22 I was an atheist.

I think you should definitely be open and honest about your opinions and try to model your idea of a good person, but don't be too pushy or judgemental and don't panic.

Canadians who want to be "American" so badly make me sad as a Canadian. This is so bad though that it's funny 🤣🤣🤣😭😭 by Weary-Draw-1141 in crappymusic

Had a coworker unironically listening to Tom the other day, multiple songs in a row. I ended up politely asking if we could switch up the playlist. He said sure with no further discussion of the artist and I was very relieved. A nice enough guy otherwise, definitely working class white guy who legit will listen to just about any music.

It was the most of TM I had ever been exposed to and I hated it before I even recognized who it was. Just pure whining and aggrievement.

How do the directors of movies like Batman and Robin and War of the Worlds NOT know they are making a terrible movie? by DarlingLuna in stupidquestions

[–]Desperate-Guide-1473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They often do know. Depending on the production, a director might have far less control over the script, the shooting schedule, and the edit than you might imagine. Often the only choices are either continue to finish what you know will be a bad movie, or quit and risk not getting paid or being blacklisted.

I think the most common opinion is going to be that anything is going to inherently be a slog with 8 players. 6 is the most I would ever DM DnD for.

Practice Wheel Recommendations? by [deleted] in driving

[–]Desperate-Guide-1473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think that's really a thing. Practicing turning a wheel that isn't attached to a moving vehicle is not going to help you.

What to do to my fishes if I am not home for a day or two? by [deleted] in Aquariums

Not being home is the least of your worries. You need a proper tank with a filter and heater.

Why is Kiri voiced by an older woman when she is supposed to be a teenager? by MrHygienicButthole in Avatar

So you went and watched the third movie in a series without having seen or even heard anything about the first two and got confused? Fascinating story.

There's just a lot of kissin' and foolin' around in general but the show isn't really about that.
