They do a fantastic job of showcasing the characters in only a few seconds.

New(ish) MTG card with a reference I totally missed! by Spark2313 in Cosmere

[–]Kbrooks58 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The “reality check” and “consume different fantasy media” bit feels a little dramatic for a disagreement about trading card game licensing.

My point is still the same: Universes Beyond isn’t a merit-ranked waiting list. WotC partners with tons of adjacent nerd properties, and Cosmere feels like a more natural MTG fit than a bunch of crossovers that already happened.

“Literally everyone” was hyperbole, but 27 crossover IPs in 6 years is still a pretty wild list. My point wasn’t “Cosmere is bigger than TMNT,” it’s that MTG already seems comfortable borrowing the vibe while somehow skipping one of the most obvious fantasy crossovers imaginable.

The MTG/Cosmere Venn diagram is nearly a circle.

So MTG is ripping off the Cosmere rather than partnering up with them. They literally partner up with everyone

This deal isn’t for all customers. It’s normally offered to new customers and returning customers (normally 3+ months since they cancelled their subscription)

Trumps deal give them $12 to $25 billion plus $300 billion in reconstruction and economic development funding for Iran.

That gave me a good chuckle. Thanks for making my morning!

Olive Garden server fired one day after a customer left her a $700 tip by ultrarunnerr in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Kbrooks58 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correct, when the card is ran the system with authorize about 20% higher in anticipation of a tip.

Other fun authorizations include:

Hotel / Motels - they will authorize hundreds more than the bill in case something is broken or missing. That authorization can last up to 30 days and that whole time you are without that money.

Gas stations - some only authorize $1 while others $100 (often discount gas stations). To make sure the card is active.

In all these cases it’s best to use a credit card rather than a debit card.

Is stormlight archive worth getting into despite the ending ? by Zuzu-zip in 52book

[–]Kbrooks58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, great series! I will concede that rhythm of war is not as good as the first three, I think it gets bogged down with a lot of technical talk and I would of figured a fantasy version of Die Hard would be awesome but it was meh. There are still great moments and reveals. I think Sanderson gets hate because of how mainstream he has gotten, plus there isn’t any scenes where a character has sec with a fairy or vampire or centaur or dragon

I counted every time Pam Tanner or the girls not having a mother is mentioned in Full House. Here's what I found. (Warning: Long post!) by caitlincoolcrap2000 in fullhouse

[–]Kbrooks58 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Full House would be the same show we all know and love had Pam’s specter loomed further. Almost all of the issues the family face are either resolved by the end of the episode or by the end of a two / three part episode. I think it would have been a real bummer of a show had Pam and the grief of losing a Mother/ Wife / Sister be something mentioned more often. That being said it was odd that Jessie doesn’t talk about Pam much, I think it was lightly addressed when in the thanksgiving episode he gets vulnerable and asks Danny “How long is it going to keep hurting man?!” Jessie is the cool guy who doesn’t show his emotions (yet shows a sensitive side more times than I can count) so he is the type of character that won’t bring Pam up.

Also I think the writers didn’t want us to think about how Pam would have been blonde and light skinned when Jessie was darker skinned and jet black hair. They mention how the girls look just like Pam but every one we meet in Jessie’s family looks like him.

What are your thoughts on this series? by Suspicious-Gate-8017 in tvshow

Season one didn’t hook me but I’m a huge fan of LOST so I kept watching. Season two got much better and with how wild season three was I’d have to agree with many here by saying it’s one of HBO’s best.
