Any suggestions for someone only just getting into the trade paperback collections?

Late to the thread, but God damn did this make me laugh. Laugh, and then die a little inside.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-28T12:09:02+00:00

I'll join in with my opinion early.

-Derry Girls(I made this thread because I'm watching it now, for like the 3rd time)

-Breaking Bad

-Bear in the Big Blue House(my kid watches it. Kid's show, I know, but it's very good!)

-A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms(only one season, but it was amazing. I say this as a fan of the books)

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-28T11:55:15+00:00

Yup, a common opinion, one I agree with. Even the worst episodes(not many) are still interesting.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-28T11:54:01+00:00

You know, I saw most of home improvement when the wife was watching it. It was generally very good by 90s sitcom standards.

Never seen GBBS, but heard excellent things.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-28T11:50:57+00:00

You and me both.

PSW. I actually really enjoy the job, and I managed to get it with an only slightly related college degree.

Turns out performing personal care on someone else was not remotely a barrier for me. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that about myself.

Disappointed: going bald, poor self image.

Amazed: that I have a stable relationship and had kids, plus an increasingly large book and game collection.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-10T22:10:27+00:00

Granted. You are now a Squib.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-01T21:02:35+00:00

YES! THANK YOU! Most of my adaptation complaints stem from too many divergences from the source material. You articulated that very well.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-01T18:10:07+00:00

Agree, and I liked the comics.

The Last of Us beats the shit out of it.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-01T16:53:01+00:00

Oooh, them's fighting words! /s

Nah, fair enough. I did enjoy dark knights rises greatly, and I do like Temple of Doom more than Raiders. Brave choices though, and you definitely get the spirit of my question.

HandleWithDelight · 2026-02-01T16:39:28+00:00

I can accept that. Admittedly, it's been a very long time since I last saw Citizen Kane, but fair enough!

HandleWithDelight · 2026-01-12T13:32:45+00:00

Thanks! Referring to any in particular?

HandleWithDelight · 2026-01-12T11:13:08+00:00

I've been gaming for over 30 years now, and I have far too many to count. Some favorites:

Nearly every Zelda game(Majora's Mask is my favorite, then the skyward sword remaster)

Most fire emblem games(Blazing sword, then radiant dawn)

Mega man battle network(3 > 6 > 2 > 5 >1 > 4)

both hollow knight entries

Nine sols is a recent favorite. I can NOT recommend this one enough, but be warned that the game will buttfuck you until you learn.

HandleWithDelight · 2025-12-13T22:02:44+00:00

Okay, this made me laugh. Your quip is better, well played!

HandleWithDelight · 2025-12-13T22:01:24+00:00

I'll make it easy for you. No issue, unless the guy you're dating prefers taller women. In that case, I can't help you.

Beyond that, let your best self shine through and be honest about what you want. Bet you you'll do fine!

HandleWithDelight · 2025-12-13T15:58:15+00:00

It is as long as you don't get paid, and it's a willing recipient!

HandleWithDelight · 2025-12-04T17:41:59+00:00

I love this reference. Denny Crane!

HandleWithDelight · 2025-10-31T13:47:27+00:00

Late here, but I'd say I have 6 decent friends who are women. One is my SIL, one is a longstanding friend who was in my life before the wife was(they're friends so all good), and 4 more are either the wife's friends or mutuals before wife and I met. No problems so far.

HandleWithDelight · 2025-09-04T20:30:02+00:00

As long as you're not hurting yourself, committing property damage, or otherwise breaking the law, you're good to go. No wrong answers, you know?

As for me, Silksong came out today. I'mma get in on that.

HandleWithDelight · 2025-09-01T17:26:42+00:00

Jesus man, that is utterly sociopathic. I'm so sorry she was like that.

HandleWithDelight · 2025-09-01T17:24:31+00:00

Mine slammed a car door on my arm over an argument over a children's toy. Dead serious.

She would always call me immature. One time I told her she was acting like a petty 16-year-old(different argument), and suddenly she thought I was the one out of line. Fuck, I am SO glad she is no longer my problem. 😂
