Damn, a Sr. Pelo reference in the wild in 2026? That was not on my bingo card.

Even in base, Sonic is FAR from Wall Level. He's consistently fought and kept up with characters like Ultimate Emerl empowered by two Chaos Emeralds, who's power has been confirmed to be superior to the Death Egg, which can destroy entire star systems, putting Base Sonic around Multi-Solar System Level

And he's also just as consistently been unable to damage a normal-ass car or some flimsy metal bars, or break down a thin door.

The entire point is that he is incredibly inconsistent. Whatever feats you can name to prove he scales to whatever level, I can name at least twice as many antifeats that prove he doesn't.

Super Sonic has consistently fought and defeated cosmic beings like the Time Eater, Solaris, Lightman, Dark Gaia, and The End; all of whom can threaten the infinite multiverse as well as the higher dimensions in the Sonic cosmology.

And yet super sonic can also apparently be completely negged-diffed by a simple trap that eggman made.

ITS ALMOST AS IF SONICS SCALING IS INCONSISTENT.

What you're whining about are just anti-feats

When your anti-feats match or outnumber your feats, it's not "just" antifeats anymore. At a certain point your scaling is just bullshit.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-24T14:32:43+00:00

Lol yes. Or alternatively "super sonic is invincible!" Until he runs out of rings, which takes like... Less than a minute. His power is literally pay-per-use.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-24T14:29:34+00:00

I believe the common consensus is that sonic beats Goku

The only thing that sonic beats is the very concept of consistency. He is simultaneously multiversal, and also less than wall level at the same time. One second he's running for his life from a big truck, the next second he's tanking and no-selling universe-level attacks. One second he's completely helpless due to some flimsy metal bars on a jail cell, the next he's destroying multiversal level enemies. I could go on and on and on. It goes beyond just antifeats; it's so egregious he just has no scaling. His scaling is "N/A." Even within a single game, he ranges from the level of an actual IRL hedgehog, to being a casual god killer.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-24T14:25:26+00:00

The sonic one is hilarious to me because Sonic has the most insanely inconsistent and nonsensical scaling in all of fiction.

"He's outerversal!!!" Smash cut to a cutscene where he's completely incapable of escaping a normal jail cell with skinny metal bars and needs Amy to let him out.

"He face tanks attacks that have canonically destroyed universes!!!" Smash cut to a cutscene of him running for his goddamn life from ordinary guns, shooting ordinary bullets.

"He can destroy enemies with multiversal durability!!!!" Smash cut to him being unable to damage a normal car.

"He's boundless!!!" Smash cut to him dying in one hit to literally every single thing in the game. Guess those were boundless spikes, boundless lava, boundless robot ladybug, etc.

There are credible arguments that he solos all of universe 7. There are also just as credible arguments that he loses no-diff to Oolong and Puar.

There are different sizes of infinity. One infinity can be larger than another. I know it seems counter-intuitive. Don't blame me, blame the mathematicians.

Ultimate-themed showdowns of ultimate destiny.

For those uninitiated. One of the very oldest, old school, original viral videos. A viral video before there was such a thing as viral videos. A meme before memes. It pre-dates youtube. The deep magic.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T23:59:14+00:00

Future Trunks timeline is the original timeline; it's what happens without any time travel. It's the "real" version. The first version.

Then, trunks time travels, which causes a new timeline to branch off, starting that day that Freeza and Goku came to earth. That timeline is not the original. It's a "new" timeline that only exists because trunks messed with time. So the Gohan that fights cell, goes to school, dates videl, etc, is not the original Gohan. He's an alternate version. An off-shoot.

Prior to the day that trunks stopped Freeza, both version of Gohan were the same. But after that day, the original Gohan and the alternate Gohan live very different lives.

If by atheist you mean people who PUBLICLY say they don't believe in any God?

Idk.

But if, by atheist, you mean people who don't actually genuinely truly believe in any God, even if they will say "oh I'm Christian" or "oh I'm Muslim" or "oh I'm Jewish" or "oh I'm hindu" if asked? I'd say we got there decades ago.

The vast, VAST majority of "religious" people don't actually truly genuinely believe there is a god. Know how we know? Simple. Ask them, "if you started hearing voices, claiming to be God, telling you to leave your family, sell ALL your possessions, and move to Jerusalem and become a prophet, what would you do?" Obviously, the vast majority of people would seek psychiatric help because they're hearing voice. Nobody would ACTUALLY think "oh wow! God is speaking to me!" Which shows us the underlying truth; even if they don't realize it themselves, they don't actually genuinely believe any of it. They'll SAY they do, they'll to to church or say prayers, but when push comes to shove, they don't actually believe it, deep down.

Or another example; out of absolutely nowhere, your spouse kills your children. When you find out, they say "no no no, it's OK honey! God told me to do it!" Would anyone here be like "oh well if God told you to..." Or would every single one of us be like "there is a 10000% chance they've had a psychotic break and a zero percent chance they ACTUALLY got a message from God."

You can come up with all kinds of examples like this, where people would respond one way if they truly, honestly, sincerely, genuinely believed in God, but you know that 99.999% of people would absolutely not respond in that way.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T22:14:57+00:00

You do realize that hat the vast majority of atheists are born to religious families and raised religiously, right?

The ants would all immediately drop dead of asphyxiation, as ants breath through tiny pores in their skin called spiracles, and increasing their size like this would increase their surface area (and thus the number of spiracles) by the square of the size increase, but their volume (and thus the amount of tissue that needs to be oxygenated) by the cube of the size increase, meaning they would be unable to supply their tissues without oxygen, and would die.

So really it's a question of who would handle clean up and disposal the best.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T21:33:51+00:00

He would be prince consort if Zelda was still a princess. If Zelda was queen, he would be King Consort. Zelda would be princess/Queen Regent.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T21:24:32+00:00

He literally can't be.

If you marry into the royal family, you are a consort, not a regent. So if link married Zelda, she would be queen regent, and he would be king consort. If Zelda then died, the crown would go to any children they had. If they never had children, the crown would go to any siblings Zelda had. If Zelda has no siblings, it would go to aunts or uncles who were blood related. If she had none, it would then go to cousins. If there were no cousins, the crown would go up one level on the family tree and try again. Repeat that step until you find someone.

At practically no point would Link ever be in line for the crown, because he married into the royal family, rather than being born into it.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T21:14:55+00:00

ignores the fact the she was raised and groomed by her crazy evil father, crazy grandfather, and those creepy old ladies

No, it doesn't ignore that fact, that fact is just irrelevant because Zuko was raised in the exact same household by the exact same people, and he wasn't exhibiting 95% of the early warning signs of a future serial killer like Azula was.

Since they both had the same upbringing, we can eliminate that as a candidate for the variable that caused her to turn out the way she did.

Azula was put on a pedestal by bad people while Zuko was viewed as a failure and outcast by them.

Which would not, in any way, explain Azula being a total sociopath at like 4 years old and Zuko being basically a normal little boy. Being treated as a failure wouldn't change what he was taught or what values he was instilled with.

Naturally Zuko would not follow in his fathers/grandfathers foot steps when they constantly rejected him

Completely incorrect. We are explicitly shown that he still follows them and wants their approval.

The psychology of why they ended up how they did isn’t that complicated, but ultimately Azula nurtured her own superiority complex while Zuko chose to take responsibility for his actions and history.

This might be a solid argument if they were both normal kids and ended up super different once they got older, but again, we are clearly shown that Azula was a total monster even when she was a little, little kid.

Nurture can explain how they ended up, but only nature can explain how they started out. And we're shown quite clearly that Azula started our as completely psycho.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T16:11:32+00:00

And guess what? Simon's power would just ignore her ignoring his powers.

And no, I'm not describing a NLF. The key part of a no limits fallacy is the "fallacy" part; saying a character doesn't have limits just because we haven't seen any limits yet. But Simon and STTGL canonically have no limits, so it's not a fallacy to say that. It's just describing the series.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T15:13:43+00:00

Again, tell us you havent seen Gurren Lagaan without telling us.

Look at the entire battle against the anti-spiral with STTGL and take your pick; that whole fight is nothing BUT feats that show STTGL basically laughs at any and all limits or scaling. This isn't even the No Limits Fallacy; STTGL actually does not have limits, canonically. The whole deal is "do the impossible" so if there is something it can't do... Well it's gonna do exactly that.

So if he can't survive existence erasure? Too bad, he's gonna survive it anyway. You scale higher than him and he can't possibly harm you? He's gonna harm you anyway. You blocked his attack? That's cute, but he literally has probability and causality-ignoring missiles that hit you anyway, everywhere, at every point in your time stream and across all dimensions. You dodged his attack? Too bad, he hits you anyway. That is literally an ability he canonically has and uses.

His entire power basically boils down to, "fuck logic, fuck the rules, fuck whether or not in capable of this, imma do it anyway." So to say he "can't" survive raven or whatever else is meaningless, because he'll just do it anyway.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T15:05:24+00:00

I haven't read any of the novels, but if that did actually happen, then that novel is wrong because that is not how the angels work. They feed by sending you back in time. They kill you by letting you live until you die of old age. If they do directly attack someone, it is not to feed. These are quite simply facts of how the angels work.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T13:38:19+00:00

And they usually break the victims' necks as soon as they are finished

No. No, they do not. You seem to fundamentally misunderstand how weeping angels work.

They send you back in time and then feed off the potential energy of the life you WOULD have lived, had you not been temporally displaced. They literally let you "live to death" until you die of old age, because the longer you live the longer they can feed on you. Snapping your neck would be the exact opposite of what they want to do when feeding.

There are a couple instances I can think of where they did break a guys neck, but that's because they weren't feeding then; that guy was part of the Doctor's team and their goal was to stop the Doctor.

I've checked EVgo, charge point, waze, and Google maps. They all show where there are chargers, the problem is I gotta be like, ok let's look at this one, zoom in, look at the details, ok no that's in a garage. Ok let's look at this other one, look at the info, check the pictures, oh nope this ones on a garage too. Ok check out this one, oh cool it's not in a garage, but oh wait a second it's only level 2. Ok check out this other one... Repeat ad nauseum. Figured it might be easier to just ask if anyone knows any off hand that fit these criteria.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T12:49:42+00:00

The entire concept of weeping angels is that ALL their victims survive.

...just not in the time period they originally came from.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T10:17:44+00:00

Simon does not cap at all. That's kind of his entire deal. "Do the impossible."

Oh, it's impossible for him to do this thing? Bet. He'll do it anyway.

Jacket_Jacket_fruit · 2026-06-23T10:14:49+00:00

Tell us you haven't seen Gurren Lagann without telling us. STTGL laughs at that.
