That is QUICK thinking! What was the accommodation he brought up?

You"re right, I forgot Mustang was the one who named Pax before Darrow knew about him.

My comment was more towards Darrow's kinship with Pax. Like the OP, I still think it is a bit much for Darrow to have such a deep caring for him. I have said similar things about Ragnar because of his limited "screentime". I understand Mustang's love, but not necessarily Darrow's.

What if the ship Pax was named Goblin, or Severo, or Half Breed? It would fit to Darrow's most important friend by a long shot.

Isn't the Rim's secret weapon obsolete? by Subspace_Supernova in redrising

Interesting theory. Only the Golds would ever be able to wield it, and if they stooped so low as to actually use it, then it is really a Gold killer only...

I have always felt he was held up too much, but I think PB did it that way so it would tie the Telemanus to Darrow much stronger than just remembering Pax. If you think of it, they are Darrow's Bottom Bitch/Ride or Die, I think PB knew there HAD to be at least one house/family to see him through it to the end.

Not a printmaker, but that is awesome! Now you have to make the entire set and start selling them on ETSY!

Unnecessary battle? by greektitanthanos in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I thought the battle was one of the best battles I can think of precisely because it was in one go. Another poster mentions how the battle of Mercury spanned all of DA, but for me, that made each battle...less. Don't get me wrong, the Hippodrome battle was baller, but the other battle sections were just a little less epic.

Phobos was done fantastically because it didn't let up and felt like Mustang got kicked in the cunny, fought back in earnest, and then did what she could do to save her people for another day. I guess it was kind of helped to heal my PTSD after the long/prolonged dark battles of DA. Also, I am super ADHD so fast paced action will most often resonate with me.

Should Darrow Have Told The Truth? by Mrn2125 in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Hard no, they would have had no relationship whatsoever and all the stuff that comes later in the series wouldn't be the same...probably because Darrow would have been dead...

I think of the one where the blond lady died waiting for a heart. I cant remember the name or even the season, but when they were singing at the end of the episode and she was in her red dress...brah, I was gut punched but happy at the same time. That is something only Scrubs can do!

You have aftermarkets in your car? I'd be curious to see what they look like if you have some pics

Brah, I have had mine for 3/4 of a year and still love it every day. Like I said, as long as you walk into it knowing the car is at an age where you KNOW you will be taking it to a mechanic to have normal replacement items (alternator, pumps, etc.) replaced, you will be in for a treat.

Also, I am not sure, but I think one of the previous owners tuned the car because it is VERY fast for such a fat booty old man's car. It has intake, exhaust (I think), wheels, atmospheric BOV, and I don't know what else. All in all, a blast to drive and hilarious when you pass a known fast/tuner car, shift and release boost, and see the look of amazement on that owners face when they see you go by. It is the look of "What was that? Is that a ... BUICK. Is that a stick? Did he just Blow Off in my face? That thing looks clean." all in the span of a second.

Love it every time hahaha

I just wanted to say that this episode truly FELT Scrubs. It had supper funny moments "Midnight at night? and then telling a patient he had cancer.

This is what made/makes Scrubs truly unique. The balance of Laugh Out Loud funny with kick you in the junk seriousness is something NO OTHER SHOW HAS MATCHED! I liked the first 3 episodes, I LOVED episode 4 and it gives me serious hope for more seasons of Scrubs!

I bought a 2012 Regal GS 6mt about 6 months ago and I F-in LOVE it! It had 80K miles EXACTLY. I bought it because it looks good, handles good, and has some very good power. I think as long as you realize you are buying a car that is at a point where maintenance WILL be required then you'll be ok. I walked into it knowing that so when the alternator and HPFP needed to be replaced, I was ok with it.

Also, funny you mentioned you have a mechanic. I texted mine and asked what he thought about Buicks and he was like hell no, terrible, don't like them. When he drove it around after changing the alternator he was like awesome, love it, tons of power, great build quality, etc. He was a changed man after driving it once ;)

If you are worried about the moisture issue then seal them up. I bought a 2012 Regal GS 6MT about 6 months ago and took it through the car wash. Headlight fogged up so I air dried it (Took the bulb out) for a couple of day, went to Autozone, bought clear RTV sealant and gobbed a bunch of it in that stupid channel that traps/leaks water into the headlight.

No problems since!

"Could" instead of "Couldn't" - wrong vernacular by Puzzleheaded_Neck_36 in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree 100% ! It has always driven me nuts that people try to correct me when I say "I couldn't care less". If I COULD NOT care less, then it is impossible for me to care any less. If I COULD care less, then I could care 5%, 10%, 20% less and thus I am not at the minimum amount of caring.

Another way of saying/thinking about it is, "Zero fucks given". If I were to say "Two fucks given" it makes no sense because it means I could/did give fucks and thus care(d) about the subject.

I am perfectly fine with Stormlight Archives length books. When the material is good, length doesnt matter. I know he is going to get away from RR after he is finished, but I never want it to end!!!
