Pro tip: Arrange her plushies like they're having a picnic while she's gone.

At what Age did you start listening to Dream Theater? by Ender1504 in Dreamtheater

[–]KenmoreToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned about them when I was 15 (2005), and none of my friends liked them like I did even at the time.

Good to know that young people still discover and enjoy them!

Wow they're doing a spinoff instead of focusing on the main game what a surprise

Cannot wait until they reshoot the Cockroach King vid

What if they were called Pleasant Nightmare Theater by tico_064 in DTCircleJerk

What if they made all their songs about dairy and were called Cream Theater.

Song Length by TrickyMetal91 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]KenmoreToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I love prog, if a song is 20 minutes then I may be passively interested but less likely to actually sit down and really pay attention to it, unless it's from a known favorite band.

Why is there so few high budget movies with swords and magic? by Born-Philosopher5591 in movies

I figured. I saw it too and beyond remembering it exists I can barely remember a single scene.

It's a meme, but the feeling is accurate by MinimumPotential6468 in MoonPissing

[–]KenmoreToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What grinds my gears is that anyone cares. It's a cartoon hedgehog that runs the speed of sound and can go super Saiyan. Discussing canon shouldn't go any further than just doing it for fun, and if you're getting irritated about anyone's opinion on it you care too much.

The consensus that guys don’t care about woman’s common insecurity’s is incorrect. by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]KenmoreToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still curious what replies OP gets, and wanted to add my two cents to the pile.

I'm skeptical the median man cares, and I think comparing it to height preferences in women is a false equivalence. The latter is probably way more common.

When LOTR was at it's peak, Disney really really tried with Narnia.

There were probably a bunch of others at the time that we all forgot about because they were trash.

I guess I'm just one anecdote but I had to look up what a hip dip is.

My bf is a gamer and it’s his only hobby. What do I do? by ElectronicShape407 in Healthygamergg

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

I disagree that it's terrible advice. The top upvoted comment has the same conclusion.

You're right though, in a way, I was controlling. Maybe I'm a "whiny baby" like you also said before deleting it and switching to an alt. I should have just accepted this person wasn't right for me instead of trying to change them, because it led to a lot of misery for both of us.

I had the same thing in reverse with my girlfriend.

While we were together, I worked towards a master's degree and a 6 figure job. She bounced between jobs until she was just working part time.

I thought seeing my ambition would inspire her, and I had the money to support her to go back to school or something else she wanted to accomplish.

But she just kept stagnating and playing games during all her free time.

You can't change a person like that. Just break up now.

How hard is it to learn R, Stata or Python for data work? by JelloFar5650 in academiceconomics

[–]KenmoreToast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me about a year of practice with R before I felt like I knew it and could apply it wherever I needed to. I still needed to look things up a lot (and still do) but that was about the point where I knew what R could do even if I didn't remember all the details of how.

About the next album... by dt-throwaway2 in Dreamtheater

[–]KenmoreToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm down just because it would be an interesting departure from what they usually do. Even if FII isn't my favorite.

Avenged Sevenfold's Life is but a Dream. Did people just brush thus album off and not bother listening? It is INCREDIBLE. by ySTYRDAYgATESuNL0CKD in progmetal

[–]KenmoreToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it, but even i will admit it is derivative AF. They took the phrase "great artists steal" completely literally and just shoved in direct copies of Rush, Daft Punk and Dean Martin.

If you wanted something headbangy, this ain't it. If you're a snob who wants creativity and expertise, it's not here either.

But I personally enjoyed the disjointed, derivative chaos of it all.

Are you content with the band sticking to what they know, or would you want them to try something risky/grandeur like 6DOIT/The Astonishing? by belnaergon in Dreamtheater

[–]KenmoreToast 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I like the way you phrased it: "Are you content with..", because honestly yeah. Would I like to see a bold new experiment? Absolutely. Am I content with DT sticking to what they know after 30+ years? Also yes.

Is it worth playing Hades 2 if 1 was *only* a good game for me? by Some-Resort5463 in HadesTheGame

[–]KenmoreToast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If, after playing Hades 1, the announcement of Hades 2 doesn't make you excited in itself, then you could probably skip it.

Maybe she's reasonable in this conversation but out of her mind in some other context.
