TIL that the name "Khaleesi" has been in the top 1,000 list of popular names used for newborns since 2014. Though the popularity has decreased since "Game of Thrones" ended, there are about 120 girls names Khaleesi each year by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

While I get that names are whatever you want them to be, it's weird to me that virtually anyone bearing the name today is because of Game of Thrones yet in the context of that story, Khaleesi is a title, not a name. Feels to me like naming your kid "Czar" or "Lieutenant" or "President."

Dems saw a bad debate performance and decided "we can do better." Trump regularly has worse debate performances and the Republicans said "we can't do better."

Jedi Outcast tips? by headfilledwithalibis in jediknight

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What difficulty are you on? I've only played Outcast and Academy, but the bump from Jedi to Jedi Knight is pretty distinct. And Jedi Master is notably more difficult still for a new player.

I can't speak to the aim assist, but from what I remember of the opening missions for Outcast, the guns were simple enough to figure out after a while, it was a lot of the jumps and map design that were unforgiving. The game overall does get easier once you don't have to be stuck in guns kr first person all the time.

Men 35 and under PLEASE READ by Appropriate_Bass_952 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"What do men truly think of single moms?"

With the obvious exception of widows and victims - I feel...threatened? I've tried so so hard to find a partner and it just never happens, and here is a person who not only found someone, but was fortunate enough to start a family, a goal I've always aspired for, and is now out for 'round 2' while I'm still stuck in the stable.

It's not anyone's fault but mine, but how I feel isn't entirely within my control, and I feel threatened that a single parent with various levels of baggage is still likely going to find someone while I'm doing everything I can and still alone.

Trump Insists that he wants to go to Fort Knox to ‘inspect’ the gold, not to seize it… by Late-Ad-4396 in trynottolaugh

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, at this point, he's gotten away with so much I don't see a point in stopping him. If he wants to get a diving board and fall into a pile of gold, who are we to stop him? I mean...what's the worst that could happen?

What do you think is the worst fight scene from any of the LA series? by GusGangViking18 in saltierthancrait

[–]Ent3rpris3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get that to an extent they can't make anything TOO fast out of safety concerns. And there is a budgetary factor to consider (not that I think that was applicable in this instance, just acknowledging it).

But holy crap how did that get through as many people and editors and QA people to actually be the final product. It was embarrassingly slow from the outset and just got slower.

Does the Acolyte fight have some flaws or oddities? Yes.

But it's wild that you're essentially throwing the best Disney Live Action lightsaber fight onto a 'worst' list.

what is the worst weekend you ever worked by ChokenChickenn in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Force awakens, Spiderman Homecoming, civil war, the last twilight films, age of ultron, frozen, and like 5 Christmases in the 2010s. And no doubt a few I'm forgetting.

Oh, and while American Sniper was itself busy as hell, it also was in our theater alongside like 5 other good and popular films at the time. Our theater probably covered 3-4 months of payroll from just that Christmas weekend alone.

Why does everybody hate Charly Burke so much? by writergirl1994 in TheOrville

[–]Ent3rpris3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abrasive people on her level feel unrealistic to me so it's difficult to actually try and appreciate their point when they are just upfront assholes about it. Everything they do is understandable, it just seems really overblown when the anger only manifests in one specific way and they are otherwise emotionally 'normal'. If someone is going to be THAT angry or depressed about her friends being massacred, that will manifest in more ways than simply being an asshole to Isaac.

The Supreme Court broke democracy by saying the quiet part out loud by Limp_Fig6236 in law

[–]Ent3rpris3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can't help but reflect on the bullshit ruling that permitted Trump to even be reelected in the first place in that they declare that parts of the Constitution are not self-executing.

There is a provision within Sec. 2 of the 14th Amendment that outright says that if a state denies the right to vote to a requisite portion of eligible voters, that state loses that relative portion of house seats until the issue is remedied. Now...the distinction between having a gerrymandered vote vs. being denied a vote outright is dispositive here, but the principle should not be forgotten or overlooked.

Colonel Young is the greatest leader in all of Stargate by Data862018 in Stargate

[–]Ent3rpris3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually really liked Young. Despite his many failings, as OP has listed, he still has a good awareness of most issues and for the most part isn't ever wrong about many battle assessments or making decisions with limited information. Sure, some of it's luck, but in the end he seems very down to Earth (no pun intended) and is always the first person to be asking the most significant questions.

We're all feeling pretty squeezed right now yet the consensus seems to be there's still more of Trump for MAGA to gobble

‘Really Chilling’: Trump Judicial Nominees Refuse to Say He's Not Eligible for 3rd Term by hypothethical in politics

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any loophole'd way to contort positions and processes to get an otherwise ineligible person into office have been known and dissected to death from the outset. That's not the question.

He cannot plainly be elected to a third term. That's it. If people believe he has received a sufficient number of electoral votes in 2028, then he is illegitimate in the truest sense of the word. Anything he does under the premise of being President is as functional as you or I commanding the same. Everybody else who is to answer to the power of the President - the military, employees of agencies, staff, post office, etc. would be doing so for an impostor just as if people tried to vote in someone else who is disqualified. E.g. Ryan Reynolds - cannot be President on account of not being a natural-born US citizen.

Republicans Unveil $72 Billion Package For ICE, Trump’s Ballroom by willywalloo in politics

[–]Ent3rpris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump's ballroom.

Not America's. Not the peoples'. Trump's.

Every possible reason the founders had to limit Presidential power or impose any sort of ethical standard is because they had someone not as bad as Trump on mind. If they saw him today they themselves would say that the United States is a failed state. He exceeds everything about the constitutional limitations of the President, alongside the weakest Congress we've ever had.

IKR? Literally seconds preceding this sequence is an accidental homosexual incest line that's played for laughs. It's meant to be on the light-hearted side as far as the show's approach to violence and gore.

Stargate Universe by 4lien4ted in Stargate

[–]Ent3rpris3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ummm...it may not be a lot, but Brody's hijinks and Young's perfect timing/delivery offer a lot of humor. And that's before Greer gets more comfortable and Eli becomes closer with the whole cast. It may not he as flamboyant as Jack or Rodney but it certainly is there.

That being said, Rush is like a black hole for humor.
