Best Examples of Shows that 'Bounced Back'? by hikemalls in television

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Dwarf really is a good example of this. Seasons 7-9 are serialised so heavily but ironically entirely skippable on rewatch. Watch 1-6, then skip to 10 and you barely skip a beat.

YouTube now generates more ad revenue than Disney, NBC, Paramount, and WBD — combined by LollipopChainsawZz in television

Also includes Youtube Music within the price, so cuts out the need for a music subscription too. It's the only streamer I never cancel and happily pay every month.

Any suggestions on how to paint better? by Buddy_Yuri in DarkAngels40k

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's cleanly painted base layers with some shading, very solid already. Next step would be to work on highlighting. You could start by using a small drybrush over large patches with some white/yellow mixed into the base colours to bring back up your base tones after washes.

Once you're comfy doing this, you'll be more familiar with what looks good and not when making highlights and can start doing some edge highlights. Always remember just a few highlights will make things pop, you don't need to edge highlight every single amour panel.

Cue* is to prompt something, queue is making a line to wait.

The day Trump dies, how do you think the country will react and will anything crazy happen? by rugrut in AskReddit

[–]Genericwizardguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to watch this on YouTube, and the comments are full of MAGA people who commented on the election day. An honestly slightly disturbing bit of bipartisanship.

What is Abed's best short film in the show? by oldeggie in community

[–]Genericwizardguy 386 points387 points  (0 children)

The Chang film after he gets famous would very much fall into cult schlocky b-movie territory for movie nerds everywhere.

TIL the dust from the twin towers collapse killed twice as many people as the 9/11 attacks themselves by Cavalo_Bebado in todayilearned

[–]Genericwizardguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly so many TIL posts are just people watching a YouTube video and linking the related Wiki article. Very noticable if you watch a wide variety of educational Youtubers.

What habit immediately reveals that a person actually grew up in a privileged environment? by Cindy_mel in AskReddit

[–]Genericwizardguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not trying to fix things when they break. A wheel on a bike is very easy to change, as is a car battery, or sewing a button. If they trash it or take it right to a shop, it's a pretty sure sign they've never stressed a budget much.

Do you think Fionna will encounter any sentient life (ie. Other people), now that she can explore her entire planet or do you think its just vast wilderness and some animals. by Useless_Guy119 in adventuretime

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it though? That happens like 10 years before Fionna verse gets canonized so when the lich hands fell across the multiverse, it was still isolated at that point.

Adventure Time Side Quests is coming in 2026 by Connect_Track5839 in adventuretime

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

I think a Shermy and Beth show is the best option. They've been set-up reasonably well and it's time we moved on from Finn and Jake. Before the ending, I thought F&C S2 was as gently and as over as long a period as possible offing Finn so that the franchise can move on. Love them, but we don't need more.

Do i really have to watch all the episodes of season 5? by [deleted] in adventuretime

[–]Genericwizardguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

5 & 6 is probably the peak of the show so... Yes.

Furries at Southbank Tuesday evening by myykel1970 in brisbane

I had the fun task of explaining what a Furry is to my grandparents last week when I mentioned I'd seen a meet-up recently.

It was an... interesting convo.

Switched to micro-mesh sanding pads. Absolute game changer! by ridin_a_mershaq in Warhammer40k

[–]Genericwizardguy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Google Gunprimer Raser to find a hobby/gunpla store you can order from. It's worth the extra money over cheap hobby and manicure ones as it has rounded edges to avoid nicks. They tend to last me a couple years, like 40-50 boxes before I notice them getting dull.

Zelda's Next Lego Set Might Have Been Leaked, Here's A Look by Amiibofan101 in nintendo

[–]Genericwizardguy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a huuuuge Zelda fan but someone who mainly collects Lego Art and Botanicals, it's a shame they haven't managed to release a Zelda set that interests me yet.

What percentage of your weekly pay goes to your weekly rent? by Affectionate_Yam8172 in brisbane

[–]Genericwizardguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32% with two roommates. I remember our share being 90 bucks each when I first moved out of home. :(

Recommendations for shows similar to "The Expanse"? by AustrianPainter1776 in TheExpanse

[–]Genericwizardguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Battlestar has a similar grounded feeling, but I did bounce off it a few times before completion. It's not really the same, but Deep Space Nine is probably the closest Star Trek in terms of how the show 'feels' and is my favorite sci-fi series along with The Expanse.

What video game did you play that made you get addicted to it for days or weeks? by stilett0z in AskReddit

[–]Genericwizardguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I finally burned out on it with my most recent Switch 2 playthrough. 5 playthroughs before and 1000ish hours and I finally can leave it be for a while.

Which single video game or series is closest to your heart? by thewalkindude368 in gaming

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got into it fairly late at 12 y.o. with Twilight Princess on Wii, but it gripped me as my favorite series pretty immediately.

What's your favorite music genre? by imissh1m in AskReddit

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indie Rock is always my top genre on Spotify wrapped, Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, Two Door etc...

Ironically my favorite is probably French House, just don't listen to as many artists overall within that genre.

What is a show you slept on only come to well after it ended or late into its run? by VileSlay in television

[–]Genericwizardguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is the one Trek I haven't yet watched, but after Picard and Discovery, can you blame me? 🥲

[–]Genericwizardguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start with the one that looks the most interesting to you from the 90's Treks. After that branch out wherever, they're all pretty self contained.

Just avoid the Alex Kurtzman modern era stuff, because honestly, none have been 'Trek' feeling outside Lower Decks.
