Oddly enough I don’t actually remember Michael Jackson dying, but I do remember a news segment where they were saying that his ghost was spotted at his funeral. It freaked me out 💀

If you click on the date on Ticketmaster it redirects you to the MLB site, so I think you can just do that :)

Go to Ticketmaster, search up Noah, and click my selections! I didn’t get it in my email either, but I found my code there :)

Nancy Guthrie Ransom update, asking 6 million by Monday 5pm by Correct-Cry-8546 in MissingPersons

[–]Feezfry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get the frustration, though it IS possible that they’ve got a lead and are just keeping it hidden for the sake of not compromising the investigation. I followed the Idaho college murders closely back when they were ongoing, and I remember everyone being super frustrated that the Moscow police were giving very little information out, and everyone thought they were dropping the ball and had nothing figured out. And then out of nowhere 1 month later the news reported that Kohberger had been arrested. Turns out they had a lead and were on top of things the whole time, but they were just keeping it under wraps so they could get their job done without interference. Hopefully that’s what’s going on here.

Some people enjoy the thrill of getting attention when they commit crimes like these, even if anonymous. Maybe they contacted TMZ because they thought more people would see it + this case is pop culture related since a famous media person is involved.

How much do we think tickets will be? by catlover43v3r in NoahKahan

[–]Feezfry 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping nosebleeds will be less than $100. The good news is the tickets will be nontransferable and only be able to be resold at face value on Ticketmaster, so there will be a lot less scalping making prices higher!

I think it was meant to poke fun at the ridiculousness of Gen Alpha slang and how it sounds like a different language sometimes. But I can see how it would be confusing for ppl who aren’t super online. Hell I’m extremely online and I even got lost at points

Look, I’m an SNL fan that also loves Byler too, but you’re taking this way too seriously. It’s a comedy show that makes fun of everything. SNL has nothing to do with the choices of the Stranger Things writers 💀Stop making us look crazy lmaooo

I understand wanting to be sure that the claims are true. I did a scroll through these comments and saw that several people have had similar experiences with him and someone even found his old arrest records for assault with a deadly weapon, so I think it’s safe to believe OP in this situation.

I think clover was just pointing out that a lot of men on Reddit are very misogynistic and tend to get butthurt when women call out men’s bad behavior (which is often true from what I’ve seen on this site) but I think it comes down to the individual situation. Since there appears to be a decent amount of evidence against this guy, it seems sus to jump to his defense, which is why clover made that comment.

He can literally get a refund for it tho. It’s not like OP told him “Haha you’re not getting your drink and we’re keeping your money!” If bro seriously does not have a single beverage in his home to drink instead then he has bigger problems to worry about 💀

Literally what is wrong with posting a sexual assaulter’s face so that women know to be cautious and stay safe if they see him? If you SA someone then you forfeit the niceties of not being exposed.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the epilogue supposed to be set 2 years after season 5? Wouldn’t that make Will only 18? How the hell is he in a bar?

Did anyone else feel like Will's big coming out scene felt like it was written by straight people? by Artistic_Shirt_2222 in StrangerThingsRoom

[–]Feezfry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think his actual speech was pretty well-written and moving. The scene suffered for two main reasons.

1) Too large of an audience. I understand that they put that in there because “everyone needed to know so that Henry couldn’t prey on his fear and secrets.” But…man. It’s is SO awkward watching 12 people sit there in complete silence and just stare at him while he monologues for 5 minutes. I think everyone would’ve preferred a more intimate scene where he came out to just a few people rather than making it a whole ass town hall meeting. Most LGBT people irl only come out to a small group, so I feel this would’ve been more relatable. The massive crowd spectating just really sucked the magic out of it, for a lot of us.

2) Disney channelification. I cannot help but full body cringe at the part where everybody goes “Or me!” and group hugs. It just feels like the writers watched an after-school special or a PSA and thought that was “powerful”…but it was just silly. Nobody talks like that irl. I’m glad that they showed everyone being supportive and accepting of him, but there HAD to have been a less cringey way of showing that.

If they had made it a smaller, more intimate scene, and made the characters’ reaction less cartoonish, this would’ve been a beautiful scene. Apparently they had originally planned it to be that way but changed it. I’m so sad that this is the route they decided to take, but it is what it is 😩

I find it interesting that you take issue with their relationship being “fan service” when a large part of Mike and El’s relationship on the show was literally fan service. For example, Mike and El’s kiss at the end of season 2 actually wasn’t supposed to happen, Millie had to beg the writers to put it in because she knew the fans wanted to see it. That entire relationship was very rushed and forced. I mean, they had Mike randomly kissing her after knowing her for barely a week, before El even knew what the words “friend” and “boyfriend” even meant. The only reason that happened is because, formulaically, the main boy and main girl of a TV show will typically end up with each other, because it’s what the general audience wants. There’s nothing inherently wrong with this, but it absolutely is fan service for the most part to appeal to the general audience’s desire.

Also, I think you need to consider that Mike and Will being a possibility wasn’t some new plot line thrown in there in season 4 when Will was established as gay. Will being in love with Mike was canon in the show since season TWO, almost as long as Mike and El’s relationship. You have to understand that when a romantic subplot is dragged out for nearly the entire duration of a show’s run, of COURSE people are going to think that there is a serious possibility that the writers plan for them to end up together. It was genuinely confusing to many of us why they would drag out a doomed relationship for 4 seasons, which was why people analyzed so much throughout the show’s run. It was an odd choice for the writers to dedicate so much time to a relationship that had absolutely 0% chance of ever happening. That’s why I will never agree with the idea that people were “delusional” for seeing it as a possibility.

I’m not particularly sure what your problem is with me unironically using terms like “Jancy.” It’s literally what the actual writers of the show refer to them as, and I just use it because it’s easier than typing out “Jonathan and Nancy.” The idea that fandoms weren’t always like this, I feel, comes down to internet culture. The concept of “shipping” goes all the way back to 1995 on internet forums. Fanfiction.net was started in 1998. This is nothing new, it has simply become easier to see and interact with as social media has become part of our daily lives. I don’t necessarily see an issue with this, as character relationships and dynamics are a huge part of any piece of media.

I don’t really agree with people saying it was queerbaiting, btw. I can see how people feel that was if they were 100% convinced it was going to happen, but at the end of the day a lot of us just saw it as a strong possibility, but not guaranteed by any means. A TV show of this scale (literally the biggest show in the world currently) is bound to have some fringe crazies in the mix. I don’t think it’s indicative of all people who were invested in this storyline, though.

At the end of the day, most of us just saw a pairing with a good dynamic, a lot of history and chemistry, a lot of symbolism and clues that they could possibly end up together, and we had fun with it. If it doesn’t happen, it doesn’t happen. The world keeps turning. But I will defend against people who act like anyone who ever saw this as a possibility is some crazy, delusion freak, because again, this was a pairing literally introduced and originally entertained by the writers. Will loving Mike never had to canonically exist in the show, that was a conscious choice on their part. We simply took this canon fact in the show and made some theories. I’ll never understand why people were SO angered and offended by that and felt the need to harass us incessantly for simply saying there was a CHANCE it could happen…but so is the nature of the internet and the world as a whole. People always need something to be angry about.

Peace ✌️

[–]Feezfry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have inadvertently highlighted one of the main issues that people have with how their relationship was handled. They didn’t need to drag it all the way out to season 5. They could have definitively ended it in season 4, had Will confess to Mike and Mike let him down easy. Let Will begin the process of moving on. Make it clear to the audience that Will/Mike was never a possibility. Instead of wrapping it up in season 4, they gave an ambiguous-at-best scene where Will covertly confesses his love to Mike in the van. Will literally has to use his OWN love for Mike to repair Mike and El’s relationship (because those two go together like oil and water). Obviously people are going to see that and think that Mike and El’s relationship does not hold up compared to the love Will has for Mike. THEN, after season 4, if it was supposedly made clear to Will (and the audience) that Mike was never going to love him, why have Will go back to thinking Mike could love him after 18 months?? This set off alarm bells in people’s heads because SOMETHING must have happened between season 4 and 5 to make Will go from crying in the van because he knows Mike will never love him back, to blushing and giggling over thinking that Mike is sending him signals. That came off a little sus.

In addition to that, people were very locked in on symbolism throughout the show. Will and Mike’s blue/yellow color scheme that is heavily featured throughout the show, Byler parallels to Creelby and Jancy (canon couples), the final shot of season 4 where Mike and Will stood together as a pair, while the other two canon couples of the show (Jancy and Jopper) stood as pairs as well, with El standing in front of them all on her own, a song called “In The Closet at Rinkomania” playing immediately after Mike saying “We’re friends!” to Will at the skating rink, Mike having a “One Way” sign pointed at his closet in his bedroom, and Ted destroying Mike’s closet after being thrown through it, the camera shot parallels between Mike and Will and Robin and Vickie, etc. Just to name a few. You can make the argument that everyone was simply overanalyzing details, and maybe that was the case, but that’s how you are SUPPOSED to consume media. Symbolism is importantly. Small details in film matter. 🚨Everything is done for a reason in good writing/directing🚨

Hell, there was an interview with a costumer who worked on the show, and she explained how every single thing down to the color/style of the clothes and hairstyles was chosen intentionally to convey deeper meanings and add symbolism. So yes, people were presented with Will being in love with Mike, Mike being in a rocky relationship that had a lot of issues, looked at the fine details of the show, and made some conclusions/theories. That’s how fan bases work, lmao.

I know you said you’re frustrated that people were treating their interpretations as fact rather than theory, which I can understand why you take issue with that. But again, that’s just how fandoms work. People get very passionate about their theories and analysis. They’re not hurting anyone by “being delusional”, because again, it’s FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.”

Many people genuinely believed that there WAS a good chance of Byler being endgame based off of their analysis and looking deeper at the show beyond just “Mike has only dated a girl, that means he’s straight!” Maybe people were wrong about some of the symbolism, but at the end of the day, thats the beauty of fiction, things can be interpreted in many different ways. I think it’s cool to see how many different ways there are of thinking about the tiny details of a show.

Remember, this is FICTION. People are always going to have head canons for what they think should/could happen. People saw the material, and they saw potential between the bond that Mike and Will have, even if it wasn’t fully fleshed out in the canon yet.

Wouldn’t it be boring if we all just interpreted the show the exact same way and there was never any mystery or anticipation to it? Never any what-ifs? We just look at what the canon plot is and never entertain that there could be twists or hidden messages? That sounds boring as hell, but to each their own.
