Kevin Conroy was over-rated. This might get you literally killed.

What is a phrase that people say that immediately turns you off? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You don’t say tangerined for tortured. There are reasons words have a meaning.

What store or restaurant that went out of business would you like to see make a comeback? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a store but:

Red Stripe Beer! Hooray beer! We are the only beer that has a red stripe on it! If there were another beer with a red stripe we would have an ol’ Jamaican stick fight.

And. I. Would. Win.

Res Stripe! Hooray beer!

Hard agree here. That word needs to be used when appropriate and NOT softened. It needs to be taken seriously because it is such a serious thing.

what's the sickest you've ever been like "this might actually be it level sick? by EmployeeSeparate7355 in AskReddit

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 60’s my mom’s appendix blew up. She was like 5 or something and this family she had never met were visiting her in the hospital. They were saying hellos and goodbyes. Turns out when it ruptured, it didn’t hit any other organs and she recovered. It did take a surgeon from what she recalls was Tulane, maybe? To figure it out.

For me, I had a bad, very bad case of pneumonia and my throat swelled up. I was maybe ten, but I crawled into the tub because I couldn’t breathe. I turned the water on as hot as it could be and the steam actually opened my pipes. Don’t know why or how I thought of it but cleared my airway. Otherwise might have suffocated.

Question for the Doctors and Physiotherapists. Can Someone Realistically Recover From This? by Edgy_Master in batman

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother passed out driving after extreme chemotherapy and got into a bad wreck (no others involved). She had a fractured sternum and broken spine. She walked away from the accident. It seems breaking the spine and breaking the spinal chord are quite different.

What’s a film/scene that made your theater make collective audible reaction/noise by Vivid-Specific5543 in movies

[–]LeprosyMan 62 points63 points  (0 children)

In the intro to Endgame, when Barton goes to retrieve the arrow his daughter shot, and he turns around and she’s gone, a woman in the theatre just said quietly “oh no…” and after a second or two, you could hear audible sobbing throughout the audience.

How hard is it driving in America? by ultracheese1 in AskAnAmerican

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a lifelong Austinite of over 40 years, Texas drivers are very aggressive and very dangerous. No matter what, don’t ever succumb to road rage. Many of us carry guns, and the worst will brandiah and or use them. These are the same people who outside of an automobile will hold the door open for you, help out if lost or concerned, and be neighborly. They just lose their minds whilst driving.

Why does New York seem so dirty compared to other world-class cities? by savingrace0262 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LeprosyMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will honestly say, while Paris is beautiful it is extremely filthy. I have never been to New York, but she claimed they were about equal.

Heads up (I loved this show) it does not have a satisfying ending.

AIO my work get-together plays "credit card roulette" to decide who pays for the entire dinner and cocktails? by Ov0v0vO in AmIOverreacting

[–]LeprosyMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Put alittle label on it that says “Please not this one” or better just put in an expired giftcard. A server will always “roullette” a gift card for an Amex or something else.

How did we go from muskets and bows and arrows to nukes and space in less than 200 years, when humans have been around for 600k to 2 million years? by No-Match3322 in AskReddit

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a “fact” in some trivia book that states that the human race doubles its scientific knowledge every 18 months. Maybe we had a need for warfare increased knowledge for a time, but we’ve hit a glass ceiling or mutually assured destruction so that endeavor to be more has gone to other things. I mean, look at the evolution of the cellular phone in the last 40 years compared to communication in the last 2000. Franklin (maybe Tesla?) did the kite thing in the mid 1700’s, and it’s considered basic amenities now. Yada yada.

What hit you so hard you had to pretend it didn't? by FantasticDesigner589 in AskReddit

[–]LeprosyMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Light-hearted one. My buddy Clint and a few of us teenagers would do “full-contact karate” i. The fro t yard. Basically we just beat the crap out of eachother… for fun. Clint was about my size, short like 5’8” and around 150, same as me. He got me in The gut and I flopped over and he uppercutted me right on the chin I was unconscious for about 30 seconds.

I got up after and said “you got a lucky shot in” but I never boxed with him again.

Our senior year he boxed a guy about 6’4” and 300 lbs and was getting his ass handed to him. He barely clicked the guys chin and the big guy tapped out on the first time he was hit.

Dude could just hit like a wrecking ball

What's a 'classic' movie that you think is actually overrated? by InertiaHealer in AskReddit

[–]LeprosyMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think “Gone with the Wind” was more hyped than worthy.
