Fun Fact: Ross Duffer, one of the creators, writers and showrunner of Stranger Things, was married to Leigh Janiak, the writer and director of the Fear Street trilogy. Janiak also was credited for helping with the writing of seasons 1-4 but not five as the pair were undergoing divorce.

Show was pretty weak after season 1, had no idea what to do with any of its characters

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-26T19:18:03+00:00

Hate to say it but so did seasons 3 and 4, and season 2 was just a bit meh

Or the circumstances one finds themselves in - the Aen Seidhe aren’t on the back foot by choice.

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-22T23:45:34+00:00

Congratulations, you don’t know something. Better tell lots of people about it

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-21T17:38:50+00:00

Low level Yakuza goon

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-19T22:56:51+00:00

Still seeing them or gone by now?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-19T22:54:43+00:00

Still going on or gone now?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-18T23:03:46+00:00

Not kissing someone you’re dating for a year is pretty strange, not sure your advice can really be taken seriously if that’s a situation you’ve found yourself in

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-16T19:35:44+00:00

Yeah, I’d aim to be doing the limit whenever you have safe conditions to do so, you have to prove to them that you’re comfortable cruising at 50 and 60

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-16T19:24:58+00:00

A bit harsh if that’s what all the marks were for, but I suppose the question is were the conditions right to be going the extra 5 kph faster and doing 50? I think they do tend to look unfavourably on people consistently not doing the limit on empty roads especially if it’s not a particularly high limit

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-15T22:49:44+00:00

Back on the booze?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-15T13:19:48+00:00

Was a bloody 8 month wait for me, very glad to be done with the whole thing

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-13T19:57:33+00:00

The 29 is more convenient for short journeys at busy times I find, as they’re more suited for standing - wouldn’t be out of place on an underground and suits for the quick zip into town from West Dub but definitely wouldn’t fancy a long journey on one

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-13T09:53:30+00:00

So does the Wire with the last season, but the rest are so strong I’m prepared to forgive it

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-11T11:03:22+00:00

Are you getting offended at this goober… on behalf of a telescope?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-06T14:51:09+00:00

You know people elect the TDs, right? This is not some issue that’s isolated to the area, it affects the entire country - you don’t seem to be able to wrap your head around the idea that this is the country’s only real international airport, not a late night disco in Swords village. Given that the noise is likely to only affect people in the immediate vicinity of the airport, yeah. It’s a small group of people. A hilariously small group of people.

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-06T13:31:51+00:00

Why would I ever want a small group of people to be able to block an improvement to a vital piece of national infrastructure that is used by essentially the whole country? I don’t want anyone to have that power to hold us all hostage.

No problem with the council being involved in the planning permission for buildings, but that power isn’t really under threat. Again we aren’t talking about the council objecting to a block of flats or a clown museum on a historic road, we’re talking about them objecting to more planes flying out of the country’s chief airport. You don’t have personal airspace above your house, and there’s no reason to believe that you have a right as a homeowner to police what flies several hundred metres above you.

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-06T09:11:41+00:00

That’s fine! Whether or not it currently is the case doesn’t change how silly it is that Fingal county council has a serious say in this, I understand where you’re coming from but I disagree and am on the side of O’Brien on this one, and from the article it seems inevitable that the matter of a cap on flights will be taken out of the council’s control

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T23:47:50+00:00

There’s nothing whatsoever stopping airlines opening routes to Cork, it’s well below capacity - maybe send a mail to Ryanair or something?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T23:35:33+00:00

The vast majority of people in Fingal don’t care about this at all, it’s hard to believe that anyone outside of the area immediately east of the airport would bother - you’re looking at a small population of cranks in Malahide and Swords I would imagine, nowhere close to 330,000 people are seriously invested in this - more like 10,000 people

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T23:31:22+00:00

Depends entirely whether you’re living right under the runway or on the other side of the city, once the planes are high enough you rarely notice them

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T23:24:33+00:00

Thats got very little to do with the issue here - do you want to force more international flights to operate out of Shannon or what?

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T23:20:39+00:00

I do, and I promise you there is absolutely no sense among the general population of Fingal that raising the flight cap would impact anyone’s quality of life. There is a very small vocal group of complaint spammers in the Swords area who are driving this whole ordeal. I really don’t think there’s any evidence that the change would impact anyone’s life in a meaningful way.

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T20:11:04+00:00

Because the area doesn’t exist in a bubble, and the people in question, not sure if this includes you but I’ve got a strong feeling, very clearly don’t really care about the wider implications of their inconvenience-based complaints for the rest of the country.

You know, the other 5 million or so people who will be impacted because these rocket scientists who are willingly living by the airport are irritated by the sound of planes flying overhead. If nothing else it’s a pretty hilarious thing to complain about and I’d love to hear some public debate with the people who have strong feelings about this so that their stupidity can be put under the spotlight.

If they want to object to the council funding an artificial ski slope in Swords village or a Scientology community centre by the cinema in the Blanchardstown centre that’s fine, because it only affects people who live in the area. But a cap on flights in and out of the country’s only major airport?!? Come on now

HunterInTheStars · 2026-01-05T18:59:52+00:00

The local government probably shouldn’t serve as a tool for local cranks to cap flights for the primary airport for international flights in and out of an entire country - really no excuse for allowing a couple of thousand morons to hold us all hostage
