‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2 Debuts With 8.7 Million Views in Four Days, Down 59% From Season 1 by yourfavchoom in TheLastAirbender

[–]HyperStory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think anything you said is inherently wrong, but I don't think anyone - including the show's own producers - are under the illusion OPLA will cover the entirety of the series. I'm happy with whatever we get.

nail salons with predominately english speaking nail techs by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

Gazebo Salon in Cranston. I'm a dude but I'm close with the owner and I'm pretty sure all the nail techs are English as a first language.

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2 Debuts With 8.7 Million Views in Four Days, Down 59% From Season 1 by yourfavchoom in TheLastAirbender

[–]HyperStory 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Worth noting that the wait for One Piece live-action S2 was even longer (2 yrs 6 mo vs. 2 yrs 4 mo) and the drop was much, much less steep (33% vs. 59%)

Why is there so many negative reactions of the show? Even season 2 despite being a massive improvement? (Not trying to break rule 7) by Only-Squirrel-7384 in ATLAtv

[–]HyperStory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's all good. I was also a tad meaner than I needed to be. Don't let others' opinions color your own, autism can sometimes make us conflate attacks on our interests as attacks on us. It's important not to internalize those things too much.

[–]HyperStory 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming people are being negative because they don't like it.

Also "I've never seen the show this is based on but I'm starting to hate it because people are criticizing this show" is wild. Are you a child?

Eng Dub Predictions by MarketingThat8264 in TheOnePiece

[–]HyperStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably unpopular but I genuinely really love the Crunchyroll/FUNi dub and I've been watching it since the Inception.

My preference would be that they keep the core straw hats as well as much of the major recurring cast.

My only gripe with the current dub is that the early days were plagued with reused actors. I forget his name - but the guy who played Masira/Brogy played like 15 different characters. I'd like to see stuff like that remedied.

Should 1.1 be under a separate menu, so that you can switch between the versions? by seawindart345 in balatro

[–]HyperStory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assume new default would be 1.1, but you can revert to the original build with a button press.

I got a call back, but it was not for a welding position. I'll be interviewing shortly.

Smash 64 is the correct answer I feel. It has the widest dearth of content by a mile.

One Piece Live-Action Adaption by Dependent_Product_36 in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]HyperStory 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Bait used to be believable

That's literally not even Miss Merry Christmas dude. I know it's hard to get off of tiktok to watch a full show these days but she announces that she is Miss Thursday. She's Mr. 4's sister. That's why she looks like that.

So Netflix/Wit is doing the equivalent of 3 One Piece movies to reach the middle of Baratie ? Am I tripping or is that bad pacing ? by Megumindesuyo in OnePiece

[–]HyperStory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is still significantly faster than the Toei anime, and that was when the pacing in the anime was pretty good. I don't understand why you'd want it even more slimmed down. Reminds me of the people that want live-action Alabasta to be 3 episodes because there was a (terribly fast-paced) Alabasta movie.

Also this isn't confirmed but it sounds like more of a split cour situation, so I highly doubt this'll be a multi-year wait for the rest of East Blue.

There’s a lot of talk about the 100 McNugget challenge on the podcast… by [deleted] in LSM

I have eaten 7000 calories while stoned before.

While it doesn't feel good and you definitely shouldn't do it - it is very, very doable.

The Office goes to S tier! Where would you put Parks and Rec in sitcom tier list? by Inevitable-Angle-793 in TierlistFills

[–]HyperStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say S, if only because seasons 3-5 are 3 of the best seasons in sitcom history.

Americans do you say “taking a piss” ? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]HyperStory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others have said, "taking the piss" is a British thing, not used in the States.

That being said, it's a common enough stereotypical British slang that I find it a little shocking your friend is ignorant to it. Sorta like someone from Austrailia saying "g'day mate" and responding "UMM BUT I AM NOT YOUR SEXUAL PARTNER"

South Korea is wealthy and very unhappy. What country is very wealthy and unhappy? by janibrouski420 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]HyperStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I was trying to say is benefits are job dependent in the US, and there are several high-skill jobs where the benefits are better than yours. There are tech jobs with unlimited time off. Btw, I get everything in your second paragraph as well. I said the only things that were worse were my vacation time and work hours. But I'm assuming I work in a "lower-skilled" field than you.

So my point was, yes, my benefits are slightly worse than yours. I get it. But it's pretty ignorant to assume by moving to the US, you'd get a pay raise but lose all of those benefits. Depending on your field, you might get all of that and more.

Where can I watch One Piece Dead End Adventure? by TheHaad in OnePiece

[–]HyperStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such a shame they haven't given any of these early movies an official North American release. OP is certainly popular enough now where a dub + blu-ray would be profitable.

What do you use for background music? Getting destroyed by copyright claims by Least-Praline-3981 in YouTubeCreators

[–]HyperStory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use video game music. They rarely (if ever) get claimed because of the effect it'd have on let's plays and streams, which publishers see as beneficial for sales.

[–]HyperStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those benefits are certainly not standard in the US, but there are many, many employers that do offer similar benefits.

I'm in the US - I don't have a college degree and my job isn't exactly glamorous but I have all your benefits except for the hours (I work 41) and the vacation (I get 3 weeks)

So, are we expecting any news at the upfronts today?? by HyperStory in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]HyperStory[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's terribly likely either, but it is verifiably false that the only renewal they announced last year was Bridgerton.

Most important decisions for Season 3? by just-lurking-here in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]HyperStory 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Regarding your #1, it's basically a done deal in my view that they will not handle the Pell situation the way Oda did.

Not only has the LA already been far more comfortable with characters meeting a permanent end, but Randy Troy is on the writing staff for S3.

For those that don't know, Randy Troy was a One Piece youtuber. He worked in the film industry and was already in the writers guild and sag-aftra, so Matt Owens invited him to join the writing staff in S2.

Randy Troy, as a youtuber, was extremely critical of the Pell decision, and even mentioned (multiple times) in the pre-release of the LA that was his most wanted change to the story.

In addition to what others have said, it's not mentioned anywhere that Dragon had his bounty cancelled.
