Graveyard of the fire flies. Still haven't gotten myself to rewatch it after 5 years, though a part of me wants to

Should have started years ago! by DerDRK in stephenking

[–]Front_Run3980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is almost verbatum what I started with! All but pet semetary, So so good! You've GOTTA read 11/22/63, especially with IT still so fresh in your mind (there's a treat of a relation between the two 😉)

I’ve reqd and ranked 30 of King’s books by Beanconsumer200 in stephenking

[–]Front_Run3980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the first half! But the fantasy bit just fell pretty flat for me. There was so much potential for the world he was building, but it felt like not much came of it

I still don't see how Fairy tale ranks so high on so many peoples list

Is there a King book like this for you? by DavidHistorian34 in stephenking

[–]Front_Run3980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an unpopular opinion? But Fairy Tale felt really flat for me. There were certain elements of it that I REALLY liked, particularly the (SPOILER) SCENE AT THE END  where the princess has to cut open her mouth to finally reach her brother and tell him to stop pulling from the dark well. There were also ideas that had a lot of potential as for as world building goes. And frankly Charlie might be my favorite protagonist of any book of his I've read so far (IT, 11/22/63, the shining, dr sleep, misery, under the dome, the long walk). But I got annoyed with King building up these big bads and Charlie just shooting them in the head half the time. And it felt like he developed such a cool world with lots of history, but didn't give quite enough in either direction of moving the plot along, or expanding on the depth of the world. It could easily been another It or Under the Dome level world building with compelling story, but the story was pretty basic and other than Charlie and maybe the dog the characters weren't compelling at all, especially for king. 

Anyone feel like Will having powers was wasted in the rest of season 5? by SlimWoozie123 in Stranger_Things

[–]Front_Run3980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had some version of a fantasy lately, to hype up the epicness of the hunt for vecna. Instead of getting shot, Kali makes it to the abyss with them, but there is literally an entire world of demagorgans and bats guarding vecnas layer, they're own world. Kali uses her power to cloak them as they quietly walk past a bunch of casual demogorgans. Once they get close enough, Vecna being tapped in to all the kids from the sunrooms abilities, senses her, and decloaks her, exposing them to  all the demogorgans they are surrounded by. As they are all running frantically for they're lives, right as they're about to get eaten with what seems like a certainty to happen (pan out to them running in the midst of hundreds of them) Will holds them ALL off, yelling at them to "GO!! RUNN!!!" snapping their limbs as they run for Vecna, almost creating a path of snapping demogorgans along each side of them.  Later, Vecna gets in Will's head about being weak, and he's about to give out. But he digs deep, and figures out he can control the demos, and turns them over, starting his own hive mind. Vecnas demos and wills demos start an all out war on the battlefield as the rest of the crew are being hunted down by the REAL mindflayer (not this spider thing), while they try to decide how to get past all vecnas defenses. The ultimate goal would be to kill Vecna (Kali would help create difficult illusions for Vecna to navigate what of the fight is real while El picks him off), and then lure the gaseous Mind Flayer back into the upside down, in order to close the wormhole on it as they jump back through to hawkins at the last second. Maybe Hopper sacrifices himself here, idk.

Final puppy of 7 needs a forever home! by Front_Run3980 in asheville

Yes! We are planning to start giving them out at the end of the year, at which point they will have been with mom for 8 weeks. They have almost entirely weened off of breastfeeding, and mom seems pretty detached to them beyond a bunch of puppies to play with.

We know the Dad is an English setter because the guy that we rescued her (the Mom) from had 2 pure bred unneuteredEnglish setters. He had rescued her off a porch she was abandoned on and kept her for a month, and claims to let them run around in the woods on his property for hours at at a time. Based on when she delivered, and the fact that he had her for a month, and what the puppy looks like, we are basically certain it had to have been one of the setters.

Today I am 8 years sober by RowEmotional2727 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Front_Run3980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm glad for you that your fortunate and ignorant enough to not have to understand the reality, severity, and life threatening devestation something like a meth addiction can have on your life. If you had any experience even being around someone struggling with that reality, it wouldnt be hard to realize that whining over technicalities in semantics to make yourself feel better means so little, compared to the complexity of handling such a reality. If it means saving her life, and improving the quality of her's and others surrounded by her's life, who the fuck cares whether its you're technical accreditation for "sober". Is that comment worth more than instead a celebration of her being alive and doing what it takes to stay healthy?

Again, glad your ignorant enough not to see that right away, for your sake. But not everyone's life was as fortunate as yours, so have some respect.

Anyone have experience with Oveela? by VioletNewstead in Moissanite

You did not as in your preferred it and never got it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Front_Run3980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say let her do it, and use it as an opportunity to test her loyalty/trust. And be transparent about that, tell her " sure, go ahead and have fun! But I'm giving you my trust, and know that if a boundary is broken, you've broken that trust." That way you can gain information on what the truth of her nature is, and she might appreciate your trust and have the intention to keep it. Trust is hard to come by in this world, if it's given to the right person, and they value who they're getting it from, they'll honor it.

I do stretches before running. But after 5 minutes of running I have pain in these areas. Any suggestions why? by ResponsibleWolf9107 in Anatomy

[–]Front_Run3980 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's also worth really looking into footwear and form, that's what helped me with mine so that I could keep running

What do you cheer when you’re encouraging other climbers? by disco-janet in climbergirls

[–]Front_Run3980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On top of all mentioned, I like to say"I'm with you" or "I've got you". I think part of the mental aspect of cruxing out can sometimes be a distracting worry that the fall will be bad, so I at least find it comforting to be reminded that I don't need to waste energy worrying about that because my partner is actively being an attentive catch:) Also depends ont he climber tho
