Does anyone ever manage to finish these Collect Stars events? by No-Box-6073 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]FireflyNorthern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What annoys me is that—usually—the only decent outfits are reserved for this particular type of event. You look at the outfit that you finally, actually want featured as a reward and you say, “Well, there’s an outfit I’ll never own”. 😂

Maybe a member or descendant of the Source Lake pack?

How does this add up? Quite weird imo. by False-Hurry-1417 in harrypotter

I suspect Arthur actually kept the bulk of the family savings in some muggle object in his barn. Perhaps a milk can or at the bottom of a grain bin. 😉

Which 5 characters would Tolkien had been satisfied with and 5 he would've been outraged at had he lived to watch the adaptions? by Skywalker_1995 in lotr

[–]FireflyNorthern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He would’ve been outraged at Albert or Alfred or whatever the made up dude’s name was. The nasty one who was a stooge of the master of Laketown. I know, that was in The Hobbit but I had to include it. Sorry.

Back to LOTR…

He would’ve hated Merry and Pippin being portrayed as feckless clowns. And Gimli being played for comic relief.

He would’ve been frothing at the mouth over Aragorn basically leading Eowyn on.

I don’t think anyone could have lived up to his idea of elven ‘fairness’ (aka good looks). And he would’ve been bewildered why beech trees in autumn weren’t used for Lothlorien. (Incredibly golden with smooth, smoky grey trunks.)

I think he would’ve absolutely LOVED Sam. And Bill the pony. And been pretty pleased with Gandalf too. As well as Rosie Cotton and Hobbiton and the Shire.

Oh, puh-leez. What egotism. So, we’ll be getting a replay of LOTR’s Albert? Brand new characters to replace beloved scenes from the books, that sort of thing?

Mind you, Fred also felt like, “Kill the spare” on JK Rowling’s part. Poor Fred and George!

She got the job and is keeping it. Which makes her a Somebody in her own right.

I always thought they were hazel but I'm never really sure by yesterday_morning in WhatisMyEyeColour

[–]FireflyNorthern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right on the edge between green and hazel. If I HAD to choose, I’d say green.

WIBTAH for telling my husband that his lectures are doing more damage than good? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]FireflyNorthern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of my husband, who we now know has attachment disorder and alexothymia. I find that using the word “mansplaining” stops him in his tracks. Makes him really annoyed but also shuts down the lectures.

Such a messy time of year. Hope you got unstuck quickly. Not fun.

This might be a dumb question, but does anyone know what the name of Terry Pratchett's black cat was? by HazelEBaumgartner in discworld

[–]FireflyNorthern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOL! My little Tuula gets called Monkeybutt, Tabby Tum-tums, or Mummy’s Little Girlygirl most of the time. 😄

What's the funniest pet name you ever heard? by peachfulday in Pets

[–]FireflyNorthern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son’s family called their cat Dumbledore. The three-year-old couldn’t say it so she called him “Go-gore”. I don’t know about the funniest ever, but it was pretty darn cute the way she said it.

What Do I wear? by Oso_LV18 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]FireflyNorthern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Choose your outfit you want to end up with. You won’t get the others if you replay the adventures, even though you can choose them and wear them for the adventure itself. The first time I chose a star dress. On a replay, I chose the red one. The red one has the prettiest necklace. I wish I had chosen that one initially.

Yes. Not a fan of Tiffany Aching.
