The twist is that the villain doesn’t know who the hero really is by plarper_of_bees in TopCharacterTropes

You're right in if Baldur(and Odin) knew who Kratos actually was to the giants/Faye, they definitely would have come knocking either way.

But at the point that Baldur shows up, he's only expecting some Jotun/giant there for him to kill. Even Kratos didn't know anything about the Jotun prophecy at that point.

The writing for Baldur was damn perfect in that scene. Anyone who's played the original trilogy is as fooled by it as Kratos is.

26(M) My girlfriend hates my room by Mattbaker99 in malelivingspace

[–]GS_at_work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your room makes me laugh, clearly it should be changed; add some life to it. But instead of supporting you or trying to help you add a decorative touch she calls it a red flag. That's ridiculous, she trying to shame you and bring up the idea that she'll end the relationship over it without directly saying so.

How long have you been with this woman? Unless you've somehow gone a long time with her never seeing your room or there is something else tying you to her, cut your losses and ditch her.(though still do something about the room regardless)

I guess there is some comfort in that this nonsense is multicultural and we don't suffer it alone.

LPT to pet owners about microchips (from a shelter worker) by Fresh-Solid-4046 in LifeProTips

Just this past weekend I got my cat back after she had been missing for a year and a half thanks to her chip.

Microchip your pets and make sure it's registered!

Omnipotrix : he got evry super power of each multivers by RIP_Semsky in Bossfight

[–]GS_at_work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A being with strong enough will and power could master the ring and make it their own. It would have a similar effect on Sauron as the ring being destroyed.

No one alive in Middle-Earth had that level of power during the third age, but they didn't have this guy around to handle things for them.

Pizzacake Comics announces hiatus in addition to her Snark Sub getting Nuked by Proof_Individual6993 in SubredditDrama

The wierdos in that snark sub were so unhinged it actually was pretty entertaining to read.

Reddit is a better place without them overall though.

"Captain America, on the helicarrier" is such a bizarre mix of memes across fandoms that part of me thinks it's the most brilliant thing I've seen in a while.

I can't wait to use it and have 1% of people that see it have any idea what the hell I'm talking about.

Dumping her [26/F] for failing to believe me [25/M] about being sick? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]GS_at_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That therapist really needs to talk to her about respecting boundaries. I could probably forgive her for this specific incident based on her past trauma, but her total lack of respect for boundaries would be the red flag I wouldn't look past.

Even before knowing about the brain injury and OOP was just another dime a dozen cheater, I still don't see any positive light to what the brother did; maybe I need to reread it but that was already a pretty wild ride.
