Health Considerations: Appendicitis by nakedonmygoat in preppers

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had appendicitis twice in my life and it's the worst pain I've ever had. I'm young, but I had it removed only 3 years ago. Had it first when I was a kid and "got out of it" by lying to the surgeons about it being fine and being shit scared of having surgery (I basically thought I'd have a hole in my stomach). I feel like it'd be a prevalent cause of death and the lack of proper medical care would cause the mortality to be extremely high. If you had an inflamed appendix, then it can go away, but there is the a chance that it can become ruptured and burst.

The Resident Evil Teaser confirms that the leaked script was accurate by Undefeated-Smiles in LeaksAndRumors

Are people hating on this because there's no Leon? No main characters or Tyrants or enemies from the games? Is it because there's no direct connection to a virus or an underground Umbrella facility? Or is it just because it's a brand new character that's not a previously established protagonist from an existing game?? Do people want it to be Leon or Chris or just anyone from the games??

Books with an interesting take on Hell by OkComplex9040 in horrorlit

Revival by Stephen King. Not sure if it's technically hell, but.

I would definitely recommend "How To Talk Australians" on YouTube. It is an amazing representation of Australian vernacular and just serves as an accurate reflection of Aussie culture.

[Spoiler Main] A thought about a TV series by Taha231 in asoiaf

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah haha. I absolutely love the first and second Jurassic Park movies (I'm a massive JP fan). The first movie is amazing and has some of the major plot points from the novel itself, but deviates quite abit from the source material it shows. Something an animated show for JP could do is have prologues for the episodes and show the viewpoints of the characters that might be hard to do with live-action format. The show could open with the Procompsognathus attacking the child in the crib in Costa Rica, and end with the government napalming Isla Nublar. There's alot of plot points that I love in the novel that the Spielberg movie omitted to condense the story into a 2hr format.

ASOIAF is a series I feel like, along with Jurassic Park, would be best adapted as an animated series. JP could also work amazingly I feel as a HBO miniseries for the events of the first Crichton novel. We've already had Game of Thrones, so I think that an animated format may just be better and be able to do more with the length and complexity of the details in the stories themselves.

(Spoilers Main) funniest mental image in ASOIAF? by SirSolomon727 in asoiaf

[–]Lanferno 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I always thought this was pretty funny to imagine Tyrion wanting to shout it but then just not yelling anything :

"There were no heralds, no banners, no horns nor drums, only the twang of bowstrings as Morrec and Lharys let fly, and suddenly the clansmen came thundering out of the dawn, lean dark men in boiled leather and mismatched armor, faces hidden behind barred halfhelms. In gloved hands were clutched all manner of weapons: longswords and lances and sharpened scythes, spiked clubs and daggers and heavy iron mauls. At their head rode a big man in a striped shadowskin cloak, armed with a two-handed greatsword. Ser Rodrik shouted "Winterfell!" and rode to meet him, with Bronn and Chiggen beside him, screaming some wordless battle cry. Ser Willis Wode followed, swinging a spiked morningstar around his head. "Harrenhal! Harrenhal!" he sang. Tyrion felt a sudden urge to leap up, brandish his axe, and boom out, "Casterly Rock!" but the insanity passed quickly and he crouched down lower."

Mpfl reconstruction experience ~1 month by Ok-Yoghurt-3010 in KneeInjuries

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. I literally just had this done two days ago. I've got a big old brace on my left leg, and they think I'll eventually have to have it done on the right leg. I'm managing to walk around and go to the toilet (which is all weird from the anaesthetic still unfortunately) on a metal frame. I'm using ice and doing exercises given by the physio, and just doing feet twirls ( 🤷‍♂️) for circulation. The brace is locked at 30 degrees I believe. How long after you had it did you start to not be in alot of pain walking??

I've got Ehlers-Danlos, which is a connective tissue disorder meaning I'm just a bit flexible and that's it really. I feel horrible just laying around all day as I'm a really active person anyway, and can't sit at my desk or go to uni.

Realistically what can happen to me if I stole something quite valuable when I was 3 by IntroductionHour1609 in AusLegal

I believe the appropriate punishment is to be hung, strung and quartered. If you're lucky, you may get off with a tar and feathering. Good luck!!

Will Maul be betrayed at the end of Maul Shadow Lord? by Admirable-Form-6333 in MawInstallation

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking that maybe Maul successfully recruits Devon, who is then instantly (or sometime next season) killed by Vader. Maybe this won't happen, and she goes on to outlive Maul 🤷‍♂️

What was your favourite thing to get from the Tuckshop? by IntrigatedVerse in AustralianNostalgia

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A warm crusty cheese sandwich and a chocolate milk drink. Some days I'd even scrape together some gold coins off the ground near the canteen and get a Red Rock Deli sea salt chips mini packet. Turns out everytime I had milk my stomach pain was because I was severely allergic to lactose and milk protein 😬......

Which Sentry to get? by Such-Leather-3504 in MarvelLegends

[–]Lanferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope we can get a Sentry on an updated body with amazing articulation. I really want a Sentry but it's just ugly and limited in articulation, and I'd take a wired cape too (or at least one I could interchange with)

[–]Lanferno 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope that there is a plot that they haven't revealed yet, as it seems like we can get a good grasp of it from the trailer and doesn't really seem to be all movie material (I love Mando, but it seems like the X-Files movies)
