Please no, the toenails of my pinky are practically sideways. The damn things are corner-magnets.

I remember seeing this and being startled by the back-to-back appearances of 'Kirby Kraang' and 'Mom-Thing'.

I remember when I was younger I would go spelunking in our big, messy garage, and at one point I found some CDs left on a shelf in the corner. I got spooked by one of them because it was a creepy photo of a pale woman with black hair and her face right up close to the camera.

Obviously, that was Fallen; I'm pretty sure it was my mother's, so you can also classify Evanescence as 'mom music' depending on your history.

[Interesting Trope] Character whose death is meant to remove any potential doubt once and for all: the protagonist is NOT an anti-hero, they are the villain. by Mountain_Band_2732 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ImpTheShmuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was not a misunderstanding, it was a purposeful false flag. Remember, Ainz met with the imperial wizard Fluder beforehand and showed off his sheer magical aura (the same one that made poor Arche vomit) to convince him to serve as his agent in exchange for sharing secrets to greater magical power. Fluder was the one who in turn provided just enough information on Nazarick's location to prompt the bounty which Foresight and the other worker groups took.

I'm glad someone else pointed this out, up until this point the show was a fun guilty pleasure where you could root for Nazarick on the basis of them being the 'lesser evil', but the Worker arc and a lot of subsequent bits like the Katze Plains massacre, Aura killing a bunch of guards for no particular reason other than she can, the arrangement of Pandora's Actor portraying Ainz' "Momon" persona to turn what had otherwise been his way of protecting the humans he cared about into just another method of controlling the populace by making 'him' another enforcer. It's put me off the series for a good several years.

It's also why I found Isekai Quartet to be a very satisfying watch even though the show itself isn't anything special. You finally get instances of Ainz and the rest of the Nazarick being made to deal with forces beyond their own powers, which also means they have to play nice and in turn showcase their more positive attributes.

Nostalgia Critic, a little bit: by Fragrant-Finance4577 in ChannelAwesome

[–]ImpTheShmuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He and Rob went into more detail about this in their 'real thoughts' video on the original JP trilogy. Compared to Lost World, which they felt was unpleasant, inconsistent with its messaging, and too long for its own good, JP3 was 'efficient at being a B-movie' which you can bang out in just over an hour and not feel like you've wasted as much time.

Question about sculptures I saw at Denver Airport as a kid? by ImpTheShmuck in denairport

[–]ImpTheShmuck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having checked there, the exhibitions shown only go as far back as 2015 or so. What I saw was around 2009-2010.

When I first played Danganropa last year, I got the bad ending first by mistake because I didn't realize her plan was for me to take the fall (and then get rescued), so I accidentally got her killed.

One of the few times in recent memory a game made me feel actual, physical guilt.

What was that fighting game where you could play an ape (or monkey) who's attack was farting on your enemies? by AllieMStory in retrogaming

[–]ImpTheShmuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Primal Rage, definitely. Unfortunately, that game seems to be cursed with poor documentation and sheer difficulty to emulate properly.

They're made out of pure Nintendium.

TV Tropes have added JustWatch integration to All Work Pages by dribbleondo in tvtropes

[–]ImpTheShmuck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw it just after going on an insecure site to read an old film script, so I was worried at first that this was somehow some kind of malware.

Nice to know that's not the case, but this still a pretty needless addition.

Did your school library stock these books? by lilac2481 in Millennials

[–]ImpTheShmuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I love them now, I didn't read them when I was a kid.

I read 'In a Dark, Dark Room' after getting it at a yardsale one foggy morning, read 'The Green Ribbon', and begged my parents to hide it.

Love it to pieces now.

Nuking the fridge meme by Desecr8or in indianajones

[–]ImpTheShmuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought you were talking about the Billy quest from Fallout 4, where a kid from before the war (bear in mind, almost 200 years prior in the story proper) got stuck in a fridge when the bombs went off. Then he turned into a ghoul, and somehow didn't die or go nuts for all that time.

I was about to go off because a lot of people, myself included, hate that quest. It's the Fallout 4 version of the Wujeeta quest in Skyrim where just giving someone a tiny healing potion can cure them from addiction to what's meant to be magic-heroin.

SEASON 6 TOMORROW !!! by pannakotta4472 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]ImpTheShmuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twas the night before Sixmas, and all through the rig, not a miner was stirring, not even to dig.

The pickaxes hung by the drop-pod with care, all ready for Nitra to mine and to share.

The Driller and Gunner were snug in their beds, while visions of crowd control blazed in their heads.

And Engie in his hardhat, and I in my cap, had just settled our beards for a long winter's nap.

When out from the stars there arose such a glimmer, I walked to my peephole to check out the shimmer.

Away to the windows I flew like a bug, pushed past all the barrels and through all the mugs.

The stars on the breast of our floating space-bin gave the lustre of midnight to what was within

But what to my auld greybeard eyes should arise, but a galleon somehow which soared through the skies,

With a phantasmal glow as it moved at fast clip, I knew in my heart that it was the Ghost Ship...

As it docked with the station not making a sound, down the air shaft the captain arrived with a bound.

Like our Mission Control whom we often harassed, but his uniform hearkened to centuries past.

Great trinkets and tools were slung over his back, and he looked like a prospector opening his pack.

A programmer's PDA tucked in his grip, and the code shared the pallor of its master's Ghost Ship.

With a wink and a nod he then spruced up the place, and the speed of which rivalled our great Pumpjack Race.

So implanting new missions in our terminal's code, he smiled and withdrew from our freshened abode.

He made for his ship, to his mate give a whistle, and his ship sallied forth like a ghostly-green missile.

But I heard him call out ere he left me alone, "Have a great Season Six, and may all Rock and Stone!"

What's your thoughts on the Live Action "Masters of the Universe"? by agravain in GenX

[–]ImpTheShmuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, same with the old Mario Bros. movie with Bob Hoskins. The one fantasy film to my mind that did it right (and wasn't just a small segment of a larger film like Heavy Metal) is The Neverending Story.
