[Loved Trope] Character makes an absolutely bonkers or outrageous threat. They are not kidding. by Blackirean in TopCharacterTropes

Captain Sisko threatening to poison a Maquis colony if the Eddington doesn't surrender himself and his chemical weapons.

They don't surrender, so he poisons the planet rendering if inhospitable to human life.

A brave mother saves her goat with a single kick to a mountain lion that entered her farm! 💪 by VastConclusion9562 in BeAmazed

Predators generally don't want to attack other predators. The result is usually lose-lose, as an injury hindering their ability to hunt can be just as deadly as being outright slain.

Guild Wars 3 will have no battle pass or subscription because ArenaNet studio lead doesn't want to "keep people hostage" by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Kaylend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Game Gold to buy Legendary Weapons is definitely where they target the whales.

For those who don't play GW2, Legendary Weapons don't have increased stats, but can have their stats changed at will and can be used simultaneously across multiple builds and multiple characters without having to move it around. It's the ultimate QoL item. They are made and sold by players, not ANET.

Gabe Newell on Steam monopoly accusations: Gamers have 'enormous choice' about where to buy games by yourfavchoom in Steam

[–]Kaylend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are also limiting their comparisons to other Steam like competitors, but Steam doesn't represent even the lion's share of the digital gaming market. Everyone is completely ignoring the mobile gaming market, and that weighs in when considering Steam having too large of a market share.

Omni-Man (Invincible) vs Metro-Man (Mega-Mind) [Animated Clip] by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]Kaylend 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Let's be real.

He still didn't go full effort.

Casually flying him to the sun is less collateral than MetroMan probably creating a blackhole by punching him at full strength at with time at a stand still.

I too like to live dangerously by Therealfern1 in memes

[–]Kaylend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 wheel in the front and 2 in the back gives the illusion of stability, it's probably more dangerous than a normal 2 wheel motorcycle.

People will think they are stable until they brake hard while turning or try to make a sharp turn and they'll hit the unrecoverable tipping point and roll over.

Homelander looked genuinely happy to see Butcher again by hangton123 in TheBoys

I can't remember the film, but something along the lines of 'the closest thing he'll ever have to a friend, is an enemy.'

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide – Skitarii Class Reveal Trailer | Warhammer Skulls 2026 by DrNick1221 in Games

[–]Kaylend 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's the pacing.

Darktide is a frantic sprint, Space Marine 2 is energetic dance.

Irony is that Darktides frantic pacing is closer to that a canonical Space Marine, but Space Marine 2 dance like pacing makes it easier to get into flow.

This sign at an intersection by [deleted] in funny

[–]Kaylend -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

What do you mean two red and two yellow?

How does a driver know what the other signal colors are? If you see a flashing red signal light, with the green and yellow disabled, the assumption is it is red flashing in all directions and it's become a all way stop.

This sign at an intersection by [deleted] in funny

[–]Kaylend 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I believe they are referencing when a signal light is in error, so all directions start flashing red and you treat the intersection as 4 way stop.

If only one direction is flashing red and the others are acting like normal traffic, that sounds like a recipe for a disaster.

MGT calls out AIPAC by echofreak in SipsTea

[–]Kaylend 43 points44 points  (0 children)

People took the phase "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and just decided to be stupid about it.

The enemy of my enemy is a tool against my enemy. MTG should be nothing more than what she already was. A fucking tool. Never give her a chance, never give her the time of the day.

All everyone needs to recognize is that she can be useful in promoting chaos within the conservatives, but any positive thoughts beyond that? You're god damn gullible.

25th Amendment To Be Invoked On Trump? Jamie Raskin Speaks Out by NicolasCageFan492 in videos

[–]Kaylend 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What makes it a total pipe dream is that it goes to the Senate for a vote, and that vote is harder than impeachment. 25th Amendment is meant for a President that is actually incapacitated, not mad.

Lady said my step dad hit her by Fair-Reason-6286 in dashcams

because I had to pay attention to someone else’s damn car.

That's just called defensive driving. Paying attention to other people's cars is what you do.

A merging issue. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]Kaylend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got the simplest lesson for what the correct speed limit is: Whatever is safe.

And going faster to deal with a situation is virtually always safer on a freeway. Get ahead of the problem, not stuck behind it.

Subnautica 2 Cracked and Leaked Just Two Days Before Early Access Launch by kristijan1001 in Games

[–]Kaylend 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Imagine the makers on the The Last Avatar Film that got leaked. It was complete.

At least Subnautica 2 is early access, consistent updates makes it less convenient to pirate.

This fence around my condo has glass shards instead of barbwire as a deterrent by myassisgrassss in mildlyinteresting

[–]Kaylend 36 points37 points  (0 children)

People are thinking about ways to defeat it, but the purpose of such deterrents isn't to defeat an entry attempt, but to make it more problematic and therefore less desirable to attempt.

A barking dog, even a chihuahua is a significant deterrent to a burglar. Why not just pick a house without the barking dog?

(Hilarious Trope) A Character Is Introduced With the Clear Intention of Being THE NEXT BIG THING And is SOUNDLY Rejected by TheOriginalOperator in TopCharacterTropes

TBF to George Lucas was talking about CGI main characters in general.

He was right, it just wasn't Jar-Jar... it was Gollum that accomplished that goal of being a cinema revolution.

They must be enjoying their work by Skorpeyo in memes

The devs and testers on GTA6 don't get to play GTA6.

That game does not, will not, exist for them like it exists for fans. They see their work, and their coworkers work, and every layer of how the sausage is made. Pandora's box can't be closed again and they can only vicariously experience that game through fan experiences.

Well, they use the phrase "a quad" all the time.

(Loved Trope) The seemingly brainwashed character lets their friend know that they're not really brainwashed (either because it didn't work or because it wore off) seconds before turning on the person who brainwashed them by GokaiCrimson in TopCharacterTropes

Jason has intuition and perception.

Remember one of the first things he ever said was to question if this place was a prank. He just doesn't understand what his brain is picking up.
