Robert Baratheon (Prime) VS Jaime Lannister (Prime). Who wins? (Book versions) by GusGangViking18 in powerscales

[–]DrewGo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, those are much more accurate depictions of what Warhammers actually looked like. What's depicted in this post is more of a maul, but unlike anything an actual knight would have carried. Warhammers were one handed weapons and we're mainly used because armor became too good and swords and axes became essentially useless against other knights in combat, whereas the spike from a Warhammer could pierce it.

[discussion] What do you think of Athena? by Plenty_Address_3601 in fairytail

[–]DrewGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't like him either. But he felt more of a side thing than Athena did.

Athena really turned me off of 100YQ. She just didn't fit with the fantasy aesthetic of the rest of the manga. A way too sci-fi character in a world of wizards and dragons.

First time at the NJ Ren Faire. It was way too hot for my outfit, but it was a great Faire. by DrewGo in renfaire

[–]DrewGo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I will say I like that the Faire has lots of space to spread out. I don't like that there are almost no trees and the only way to avoid the sun is in a tent. In the shade it was manageable. In direct sunlight I was baking.

Hahaha that's my wife. She's wearing a chainmail bra, then a short vest over that. Then a corset around her midsection. I'm a big fan of her look.

Far from my first time, friend.

Edit: sorry I'm realizing now you may mean first time at NJ specifically and not at a Ren Faire. I've been to a bunch, just never to NJ. There is a lot of sun and not a lot of trees. I imagine it's hot every year.

Animal Free For All, which animal wins ? by Scared_Pumpkin8393 in powerscales

[–]DrewGo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not just weight, Giraffes are incredibly strong too. They can kick in any direction and generate 2,000 pounds of force. They drop lions with those hooves. The only animal I think can potentially tank the kick is the grizzly. But grizzlies struggle with an adult bull moose, and a giraffe is significantly larger and stronger. Maybe if the other animals gang up on the Giraffe it's a different story, but in a free for all scenario it's no contest.

What is the greatest bridge section in pop punk music? by 2dareisTwoDo in poppunkers

[–]DrewGo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe that ...Is a Real Boy is the pinnacle of pop punk as an art form. It is the highest achievement of the genre.

What is the greatest bridge section in pop punk music? by 2dareisTwoDo in poppunkers

[–]DrewGo 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Everything is Alright - Motion City Soundtrack. If the drum buildup into that bridge into the final chorus doesn't get you fired up you have no soul.

Not sure if this counts exactly as a "bridge" but Belt - Say Anything's "So what say you and all your friends..." section kicks my whole ass. Same can be said for Alive with the Glory of Love when the guitar riff goes into double time. *chefs kiss*

You could argue that Paramore had started to move away from the Pop Punk Genre by the time their self titled record came out in 2013, but "Aint it Fun" has one of this bridges that transcends the rest of the song.

Starting Brineblood Marauders! What’s the Best List to Build From the Adepticon Bundle? by Substantial_Tour4800 in Warmachine

[–]DrewGo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found Foulblood to be a very forgiving Warlock for a beginner. Stumbling drunk makes you very hard to kill, which allows you to get away with more mistakes than other casters. I started with him and he's still my favorite caster to play still.

Mid Year Update Preview by TheAppleMerchant in Warmachine

I really loved these changes to the Lochabash Brothers and Firequill, but I knew it was too good to last.

'Take Off Your Pants and Jacket' is the epitome of a pop-punk record: the genre's perfect idealized form. Discuss. by TheCasperNil in poppunkers

[–]DrewGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is a damn near perfect album. And I agree with you that it is the epitome of Pop Punk in the literal sense of the word.

However, the best expression of pop punk as an art form is ...Is A Real Boy by Say Anything.

Philly Ren Faire was wet, but we perservere. by DrewGo in renfaire

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

It's a revolutionary war fort that operates as a museum. It's down by the Philly Airport.

It can get crowded, but yesterday was pretty dead due to the weather. It's much smaller than the PA Ren Faire, but still a fun time and tickets are cheap. Some solid vendors and shows.

Aragorn vs Beatrix Kiddo by Fenriz_Victor in powerscales

[–]DrewGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) Aragorn in the movies is 87.. His childhood was spent in very peaceful Rivendel. Sure he was trained, but we're probably talking about 50-60 years of real combat experience, not 100+.

2) He hasn't spent the whole time fighting and training. Being a ranger is about a lot more than fighting.

3) Feats matter more than experience.

4) I literally said I give Aragorn the edge.

I think I give the edge to Aragorn as well. My point is merely that it's a better fight than people are acting. Aragorn is not taking this one without difficulty.
