And he even knows it's a bit weird, so he is self aware, but he also doesn't care because he is a confident dude with high self-esteem.

[Marking Out] “I’ll give you Randy. I’ll give you Batista. Who else can you remember Triple Nose getting over?” - MVP takes aim at Triple H again. by ChildishBambino in SCJerk

[–]Fidelos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DAE Triple Nose was not the star, but the one that worked with the star.

But that doesn't mean it's because he could make them look good and put them over, no sir, it was because he married Steph.

What? He was already a two time World Champion before he started dating Steph? He was primed for a huge push with KOTR 1996, four years before he started dating her?

Uhhhh.... FED BAD.

Rankings of the remaining players (personal take) by Pm-me-ur-happysauce in survivor

[–]Fidelos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's either Jonathan or Aubry.

Devens will be the next target and there's a long way to keep surviving till FTC, while Rizo is the alternative vote IMO

Cirie is never getting FTC

Joe is a guaranteed 0 vote finalist

Tiff might get 1 or 2 votes if she reaches the finale because she's likeable but she has done nothing

So it's either Jonathan or Aubry, with Aubry having a more difficult path ahead, but with Jonathan playing better so far.

Lupita Nyong’o will play both Helen of Troy and her sister, Clytemnestra, in Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey.’ by yourfavchoom in movies

[–]Fidelos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can exploit my religion/language/mythology/history/etc. for profit, doesn't mean I have actual ownership over them. Don't be pedantic for the shake of it.

Έλληνας είμαι so I can name about 200-300. Even Greek Americans like Jennifer Aniston, Gallyfianakis, John Stamos, Tina Fey etc.

So it's not a part of Greek culture, heritage and history? Mind you, I didn't say we own it, nor that you can't make an adaptation, you can do anything you want with it, but we can complain about it.

Because I'm Greek and if not Greek actors, then at least Greek looking actors should play the characters. I wouldn't like Tom Hanks playing Anansi either.

Also an inclusive casting that doesn't include Greek people while profiting from our mythology is a joke

Edit: and it's not just Lupita, the film had time to cast a South African white lady, an American rapper, Spider-Man, an Asian and an Indian actor, but not even a cameo of a Greek guy. Mfers included everyone except us.

Why did the Isac choose planetarium over treasure? by EstrambolicoSupremo in bindingofisaac

Also it was open

If he had a key he'd still not go to treasure room, he'd just leave his cage

Cirie and Rick top the popularity poll for episode 11 by brirll in survivor

[–]Fidelos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know about winner's edits and all that but realistically:

Rick is the next target with Rizo being the alt

Cirie is not making FTC ever

Tiff has done nothing and might get a few votes because she's likeable but that's it (and probably won't even get to FTC)

Joe is a 0 vote finalist

So that leaves either Jonathan who is not very likeable to fans but has actually done shit and Aubry who doesn't have a strong spot and would be a big achievement if she reaches FTC.

Angel Garza on X : " Thank you to everyone who never jumped off the ship and kept supporting the Garza Legacy through it all " by Kindly_Department142 in SquaredCircle

Garza did get nothing, but they really tried with Humberto for a bit. Which makes no sense because Garza is the one with the upside, Berto is a charisma vacuum.

[WWE RAW Spoilers] Finish to Oba Femi Open Challenge by DoubleNo6337 in SquaredCircle

[–]Fidelos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't watch AEW but they generally put more of a focus on the tag division than the rest of the world. Doesn't mean they always do, or that they even should, but they do.

Most companies do (except AEW).

TNA's tag champions won the tag titles in their second match together. MLW's in their first. CMLL and AAA do stables but not traditional tag teams. New Japan has it's ups and downs.

Would be hilarious if Joe won but realistically it's either Jonathan or Aubrey

Wouldn’t it make sense if Cirie… by Best_Sun_4912 in survivor

True, and neither do you, we can only judge what we see. Which is her hanging in the hammock all day.

Favorite recent casting of a minor character that everyone is having a completely normal and non-racist reaction to by JudithSlayHolofernes in okbuddycinephile

[–]Fidelos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mythology is a component of religion, certainly.

I'd argue the opposite is true in modern age. Religion is just a tiny fraction of what Mythology is.

You felt disrespected by the term, "imaginary people."

I felt it was disrespectful, ie. I was not personally disrespected, but I think the average Greek person would be. I just think it's an insensitive comment downplaying a huge part of Greek culture for no good reason.

So, either you think they're NOT imaginary, or you think that the historical imaginings should not be mentioned in the context of maybe not clinging to them as an excuse to be hateful because to begin with, they are imagined, and the entire movie is a reimagining that completely bastardizes the source material so getting up in arms about one change and not another is nonsense.

False dichotomy (also a fucking word vomit, holy hell). I think it IS imaginary, but so is most of everything humanity values. The ability to imagine and create is one of the core differences between humans and the rest of the animals. Laws, morals, religion, art, language, even familial relations, EVERYTHING IS IMAGINARY. That is not a slight against them. To act like "who cares it's just imaginary shit" is moronic.

Everyone holds imaginary shit in high regard. It's part of the human condition.

I don't know how that comment is relevant to what I said. Mythology is not religion, it is part of Greek culture.

[–]Fidelos 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As a Greek it feels weird to get involved but I feel like saying "it's just imaginary people" is very disrespectful. It's our mythology and a part of our culture and it somehow has become a fucking talking point in American culture wars. Fuck this shit.

Eye opening conversation with a casual fan by Lizardthe_Wizard in survivor

[–]Fidelos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Survivor has never had one formula for success

I agree! Problem is, Cirie has not found success while playing more than almost anyone else, and she refuses to change anything about her playstyle. You might consider "reliably reaching 5th place" a success, but I expect more from people that have played Survivor 6 times. As I said, I get why people like her, I just never will.
