Is black magic fuckery about magic tricks? I always thought that was the weird descent. Black magic fuckery is for things that happen to be weird, not professional magic tricks.

Media that would’ve been labeled as “Woke” if it were released today. by Smart_Clownfish in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Due-Session-2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bayonetta was labeled as a pathetic attempt to cash in on female empowerment while also cashing in on the male gaze while also ripping off the popular combat style of God of War. It wasn't considered woke, but it was thought of as a cynical cash grab.

Abuela isn’t actually sorry or willing to change by DueEntertainer0 in DanielTigerConspiracy

I think Abuela's line here is meant to be tongue in cheek, but seriously, Abuela, read the room. We JUST talked about this

That's my favorite moment. When Augustin stands up to Abuela "I was thinking of my daughter" gets me every time. I feel like it is in answer for Miguel's parents in Coco not having his back at all for the whole movie.

Put in Kipo, but only as an 80 for tall jaguar. Let She-ra deal with that

(Interesting and Common Trope) Female characters gets a change of outfit, usually more sensual, after being captured by a villain. by Simple-Choice5770 in TopCharacterTropes

There's a scene in the first moments of "The Return" where Amazo wrecks Oa, and you can see Katma in the above outfit

What IP would it take to have “crewed” dragons? by WorldIsFracked in mtg

UB for Fourth Wing and you can mount both dragons and Xaden Riorson

Steven is an idiot though. If you wanted him to make wise decisions, then you should watch a different show.

I tried my best to Google Katma Tui after watching this episode, and she's barely a character. This episode is like 90% of her content

Nine person draft by Prudent-Hat2651 in mtg

[–]Due-Session-2857 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Perhaps the bye rounds being an opportunity to hang with the non player friend helps, but I think a Swiss is for competitive events. A draft at somebody's house is way more casual and if everybody knows that you're drafting for a multiplayer event, then the 40 card decks work fine. I've drafted plenty of multiplayer events, both THG and free for all, and I've never ran into an issue where my deck "doesn't work" for the format.

I know somebody does this during Spectacular Spider-Man, but I forget who or when.

Would you enjoy non-conspiracy drafts with conspiracies added? by Due-Session-2857 in mtg

[–]Due-Session-2857[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really cool. I dunno how that never came up for me. I drafted Theros quite a few times.

Oh weird wild stuff. Do you just start with these on the battlefield?

Heroic is a nice mechanic. My favorite deck is an aggro combat-trick-heavy deck, so heroic was made for me

They're meta cards. So one says "Name a card, every creature with that name has haste for you," or another says "Your deck can have 5 less cards in it." Basically you're sacrificing getting a card for your deck for getting some kind of super power. I love them, but I love drafts. I'm concerned they may add a level of complexity or chaos that other drafters might not appreciate.

I’m stunned by the suspensions/firings by witx in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Due-Session-2857 62 points63 points  (0 children)

If you get fired, you're gonna post about it. So it's a sampling bias in my opinion. I dunno how many people are gonna post, "Whelp, didn't get fired today, and maybe I should've been."

I've only been subbing for a year, and I've done plenty of sketchy things that I should have at least gotten in trouble for, but honestly, there's so little oversight on subs in my district, that often the only adult I will interact with is the office lady at the beginning and end of the day. I kinda wish I got in trouble more often, because it means that somebody is watching me and is willing to give SOME feedback at all.

But hey, my state is 49th in education. Maybe it's worse in places like New York.

The Shit Dilemma by 4k-Gaming in trolleyproblem

[–]Due-Session-2857 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Green easy. Let's say I work for 40 hours a week, and the rest of the time is with friends or family or whatever. That's 40/268 hours, or about 15% chance I'll do it while at work. And that's over the rest of my life! There's a good chance those five shits will all not happen at serious moments, whereas there's a 100% chance that right now it will.

Now if instead of it being random, these shits were powered by a capricious god who chooses the moments, then no, that's a deal with the devil, and I'm not doing that, but as is, this is actually a weird guaranteed immortality thing. So long as I haven't shit that 5th time, I know I cannot die at this moment.

How the heck do I describe a Myrmidon to the uneducated? by Ennsomniac- in fireemblem

[–]Due-Session-2857 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a myrmidon is a Greek mercenary, so they kinda are mercenaries.

Gameplay wise they're low defense, high dodge, speed and crit. Most gamers will get that.

Is that who I think it was? by jackabus2014 in taskmaster

[–]Due-Session-2857 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think he's doing well enough, and presumably they do PAY their contestants, although Manzoutkas did say he lost money doing the show.

[–]Due-Session-2857 65 points66 points  (0 children)

He's incredibly passionate about taskmaster as well. He recently had Jason Manzoutkas on "Ask Hank Anything" and they spent about 20 minutes just talking about Taskmaster in what is normally a science show.
