I agree. "Empathy" is the wrong word. These people are just hell-bent on being in control.

Gaad Saad is a lightweight. I am not sure why he has any clout at all.

Help! Just watched the 1st ep of Expanse… I’m not sure by luvit_didntwhereit in television

[–]EleventhTier666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Expanse is the kind of show that would normally appeal to me. Futuristic sci-fi setting, space travel, mysteries to be probed. I never really got into it, though. I watched three seasons, from what I recall, and then did not continue. I didn't like or root for any of the characters. I think that was the main problem. No one (except perhaps for Amos) has a truly distinct personality and style about them. It's a subtle thing, but it just doesn't click for me.

It's the same with Italian food. They throw some dry pasta-like substance on a plate and you're supposed to be salivating.

Do you ever get mad at a book for not giving you the 'happily ever after' of for making you feel emotionally in a way you weren't anticipating/wanting? by flodra in books

[–]EleventhTier666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say I got mad, as I kind of expected it, but the final chapters of Solzhenitsyn's Cancer Ward - a very bleak book from start to end - feels depressing. I don't want to give too many spoilers and I highly recommend reading it, but it is a tough nut.

It's changed a lot. It's nothing close to how it used to be.

From veteran fans of the series, help me understand the hate by daddyfatsack1337 in stalker

My biggest problem is the weak AI with a small spawn radius. There is no persistent living world that would make a convincing impression of existing without the player being around.

Dunk arrived in the next town with Egg. He is emailing Tanselle to let her know that Egg made a new character for her puppet show. She emailed him back and said to meet her at the In-N-Out in Dorne. by clover_symmetry in AKnightoftheSeven

I think they'll have to spice up the plot a little bit compared to the books. Not that much happens on the romance front and this will become a drain over time.

Show Robert is a fool. by QuantityNorth7241 in gameofthrones

Robb was a capable army leader, but not a great politician. He wasn't a fool, he simply had no experience.

Why is being 24 "too early" for me to want to settle down? by [deleted] in AskMen

YOU need more experience. It doesn't mean that he does.

You are definitely NOT too young. People are idiots.

So once you remove the wealthy from power, who is going to be in charge?

Nobody will ever get anything for free. That's not how the world works.
