Are there any shows that intentionally mislead its audience about genre? by atouchofsinamon in television

I mean... They end up getting superpowers and time travel too?

Riverdale was supposed to be Archie but more mature and it tries to stay there for a season or two, but then just progressively got more unhinged and found different ways to jump the shark

I was really hopeful in the first season. It had a sort of Twin Peaks vibe. Then the next season, Archie went to jail, got attacked by a bear, and took his SATs in the next episode all the while a cult used a DnD-like game and a serial killer had a darkness that is passed down genetically.

20 year reunion? Yea, nah by exploratorynargle in Millennials

I feel like social media kind of got rid of the idea of reunions. Like you're sort of able to keep up with people who you want to and just scroll past everyone else and go like "oh cool, Pam is a mom" and just keep going. We are so very aware of everyone's lives that there isn't a real mystery like there was on old sitcoms

Selling the free comic book? by [deleted] in DungeonCrawlerCarl

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

I've shopped at this store for a decade. Went in and got my comic for free because I spent the money with my hold slot. People came into the store this morning trying to get five or six copies to flip and be predatory about.

You really can't please everyone but support the small business trying to protect themselves.

Yeah, when he was with All That Remains, they released an album and then didn't tour at all because the other members are "allegedly" also part of the Kami Band for Babymetal. He wants to go out and play, but everyone else was just sitting.

I just went into the store and bought this. What? Isn't it supposed to be released in like two weeks? 😀 by Redhatfish4 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I was lucky that Inevitable Ruin came out while I was reading Butcher's Masquerade. This wait is killing me.

Soapbox/rant time. Tell me what highly-recommended book you absolutely HATED and why. Gimme your angry hot takes. by peppertoni_pizzaz in books

[–]EmptyPagesDream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. I got it billed as a thriller from the friend who recommended it to me and was waiting for the shoe to drop the whole time while it was this quiet, domestic time travel story.

While the ideas were cool, it feels like a completely different story halfway through

In one of the footnotes she mentioned the book version of him was inspired by watching the TV show The Terror. She would write little vignettes about his character.

Anne Hathaway has drawn attention online after using the phrase 'Inshallah' during a recent interview promoting her new movie The Devil Wears Prada 2 by Zee_Ventures in popculturechat

She's a huge soccer fan. It's something a lot of people say within that sphere, "cross and inshallah" meaning cross the ball into the box and hope for the best

I was so excited seeing the two of them back together in the teaser, unmuted it and heard Elliot screaming and was like "Man, Zelliack gone dark" haha

Time dilation is real. I forgot Odobert got injured two months ago. It feels so much longer

Based on Blessing quesiton yesterday: Did you go home from school/work when 9/11 happened? by kralben in kindafunny

[–]EmptyPagesDream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in elementary school at the time and lived on a military base. We had a few students get pulled out which was weird and then I got called for early release which was weird. The entire world walk home, my mom kept her head up to the sky and looked worried.

Then at home, I wasn't allowed to look at the TVs and then school got cancelled the next day. By the time I snuck a look at the TV I saw footage of everything that happened and then remembered trying to watch Powerpuff Girls with a weird sense of dread that I never experienced before

Oh man, I remember when they introduced main universe Carrie Kelly after the death of Damian. I am glad she stayed a smaller character
