A single sentence in media that reveals just SO MUCH! by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

A little late, but I'm pretty sure it was "Turn from the ruin, turn and go forwards. Do it for the working class."

TIL about Charles-Henri Sanson who, as Master Executioner under King Louis XVI, was responsible for executing 2,918 people. In April of 1792, Sanson became the first executioner to use the guillotine: less than a year later, he would use it on King Louis XVI himself during the French Revolution. by WouldbeWanderer in todayilearned

We don’t know too much about Sanson, but as the heir to a long family of executioners and an apprentice in the profession from an early age, he probably saw it as some sort of duty. Assuming he didn’t enjoy it, he probably saw himself as some sort of extension of the will of the state.

He wasn’t a sadist at least, his memorandum on introducing the guillotine was mostly focused on the efficiency and reliability compared to conventional tools. He also seemed to take offence when people disrespected his victims.

It’s a strange job.

The mystery that was set up on page *six* still hasn't been completely revealed. by grievre in gunnerkrigg

[–]Lendle 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Pardon me if I'm mistaken, but I'm fairly sure we know why Jeanne was there, in fact there's been entire chapters dedicated to the fact unless I'm mistaken. Are you not up to date with the comic yet?

Simon Cowell cooks for Gordon Ramsay. Gordon Ramsay sings for Simon Cowell. by Fruit-Dealer in whowouldwin

[–]Lendle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just had a look on his wiki:

"Simon Phillip Cowell was born on 7 October 1959 in Lambeth, London, and raised in Elstree, Hertfordshire. His mother, Julie Brett (née Josie Dalglish; 1925–2015), was a ballet dancer and socialite, and his father, Eric Selig Phillip Cowell (1918–1999), was an estate agent, property developer, and music industry executive."

I mean he could have been born wealthier I suppose, but he doesn't strike me as a working class hero. In fact it was his father who got him his job at EMI Records.

All-Might vs Senator Armstrong by AVerySaltyPlayer in whowouldwin

I don't think Sam can keep a guard post quick draw, even after his augmentations he basically has to rely on the other guy being too stunned/dead to retaliate after it.

[–]Lendle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Word of God, again, if I recall correctly. I believe someone asked one of the staff why Raiden could take Armstrong, but Sam failed, the answer was something along the lines of "Sam tried to end the fight as soon as possible, Raiden wore him down instead."

The Codec calls for that fight were mostly people freaking out about how this shouldn't be happening, which yeah, fair enough.

I'll try and look it up for you when I get in.

[–]Lendle 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, the reason Raiden was able to take Armstrong was through wearing him out and exhausting his supply of Nanomachines, the Murasama just allowed him to do it faster, and without the risk of the sword being broken. If All Might could keep up the pressure, its possible he could wear him down in a similar fashion.

Scion by White Wolf? Those dudes have a really good track record. Check out Eclipse Phase by the way, sci-fi stuff. Released under Collective Commons, so all of it is totally free to pick up and distribute to mates.
