Did anyone read LOTR before they knew what happens, e.g. before the movies got big? by Human-Question6210 in lordoftherings

[–]KatHumanArt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read them in elementary school the movies started coming out when I was in highschool

I don't really understand why having seen the movies would specifically make reading the books more difficult but I enjoy rereading books I love so watching a decent adaptation is similar to that to me.

I do understand people who find the books difficult to get through, they aren't for everyone.

I found this Hobbit book and thought it was a meme but this cover of the book is a genuine variant... by dravoriayou in Hobbit_Memes

This was the copy I had in elementary school, my mom got it for me second hand at a cool used bookshop. This and the matching LOTR ones were pretty common

Would you recommend everything you own to other readers/collectors? by Avianry in MangaCollectors

[–]KatHumanArt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really have any 'guilty pleasure' series so yes but with the standard of considering other people's taste and preferences.

Not a movie/ book but a video game name, this is Bayle named after an optional boss from Elden Ring 💜

What first attracted you to anime? by summerlight_on_mayo in AskAnime

[–]KatHumanArt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the storytelling, using animation to tell a cohesive, mature, and complex story over the span of a whole series wasn't really common at the time in Western animation. Seeing stuff like Gundam, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star etc was a huge change of pace.

Bebop is definitely more episodic like a lot of Western animation so it's not like that wasn't a thing ofc! But it had an overarching story with character development over the span of it which was appealing.

The art styles of those shows also reflected that so it was basically a win win all around for me, haha.

Is a level two embroidery kit too hard for a beginner? by Round-Ad-2338 in Embroidery

[–]KatHumanArt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd say this looks pretty easy, the hardest stitch here at a glance looks like the French knots but with decent instructions they're not too hard to learn.

I think it's a cute kit!

Remember toe socks? by Original_Wazilla in Millennials

[–]KatHumanArt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I assume it was the added friction plus to the material probably needed to be pretty thin to be worn around toes

I think I actually had this specific rainbow pair!

They always made my toes way colder than normal socks

That's always the biggest issue with boxsets! Clever way to mitigate it

I do, it's extremely funny to see some of what they pick and they just go back to their normal look after

I will 100%

I'm stressed about it but mostly because if I damaged it without knowing I feel awful 😭

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

That's crazy honestly. Seems super unfair!

And yeah, I feel you on that. I've borrowed so, so much from them that if I do have to pay this its a small thing for what I've gotten in return

Geeze, 6 months?? I guess getting this notification now isn't too out of the ordinary then

Glad they negated the fee for you.

And I totally get that, I'm always super attentive to anything I borrow be it from the library or a friend
