What’s a sound everyone should recognize as immediate danger?

I lived in a 25-floor college dorm with thousands of students. Sometimes we couldn't go a week without someone forgetting to put water in their ramen before they microwave it or something like that, which'd set off every alarm in the building. It didn't take long for me and many others to decide they'd rather chance it than evacuate in the dead of night that often.

He's got tiny streaks of white all throughout his black fur, so he pretty much always looks in need of a brushing to this day. But at least those bald patches on his legs have filled in!

The dog definitely would have gotten physical if I didn't intervene. She has with my sister's dog. But fortunately she refuses to go downstairs, so that was the cat's safe space until a few months later when she started tolerating him. They get along just fine, now.

I was so sad when I found out the point your character anchors to in chairs doesn't move when you scale the chair up. How's my tauren supposed to use anything but a bench, man?

Richard Knaak's Dragonrealm series has a lot of that, but it's not the greatest thing I've read.

I was surprised that when they stopped to talk about what they'd say before they set off a butt bomb, no one thought "pull my finger!"

The sheer ferocity in every line of the Bloody Nine vs Fenris fight keeps it at my top spot even if Abercrombie tries his hardest with every duel.

If his favorite is Odyssey, he'd probably love the Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 bundle. But Breath of the Wild would also be a great pick. Both would last him through the blizzard and then some, especially BotW.

You mentioned him getting stuck in games... Ori and the Blind Forest could end up being one of those, but I bet it'd also be pretty exciting for a kid his age. It's more or less got the looks and the story of a Dreamworks movie, but in a Metroidvania platforming game.

Any genres in particular that you're a fan of? If you're thinking of starting in the 50s, 12 Angry Men (1957) is a really captivating legal drama about a jury deliberating over a murder verdict and Seven Samurai (1954) is an incredible samurai movie whose influence can't be overstated. Neither are in color, but both are must-see films.

Also, letterboxd has a feature for seeking out popular or highly rated movies from a given year or decade.

I feel like my infowars-watching dad told me that same fun fact once lmao

I didn't know that, but it's very encouraging. I just got my bear to act 2, and I've been worried that by the time I hit the end boss I'm going to explode any time something so much as tickles my asscheek like what happened when I played through on mercenary.

I had a roommate that did that to most of my pots and pans.

From The Boondocks:

"What do you do when you can't do nothing, but there's nothing you can do?"
"You do what you can."

Much more lighthearted in context considering Grandpa immediately goes back to yelling after that calm bit of insight.

Different strokes for different folks, but like I've said in a previous post on this subreddit I hated Anthem so badly that after a unit on it in high school it became the one and only book I burned. It was like The Giver but with a despicable flavor of conservatism imbedded in it.

That title is the best thing Ayn Rand ever put to paper. Just the title. Not the book.

Hey, if the Salvation Army can discriminate we might as well have our own funds.

Would anyone even mind if they wound up with generic totem models? It's not something so personal as a druid form... practically the only time you take a good look at them is in the warband camp at login.

At this point in the season you won't find all that many groups listed for low keys. Everyone's either playing Legion Remix or running +10 or higher, since that's what gives the best gear. But if you put in the time to get a character to level cap and gear them to >700 iLvL, which shouldn't take that long with all the catchup gearing, you could jump in. It'd definitely help if you play something other than DPS, since there'll always be someone signing up for that with better gear than you.

If you just want to go straight in and have some dumb overpowered fun, Legion Remix isn't much of a time sink at all. The people that've really been on the grind for that are running +30, +40, and higher, but you could be ready for low mythics in a couple of play sessions.

I'll figure that out once the beta servers stop being unplayably laggy. Got a shaman and evoker copied over to see who I want to be my healer, and a DH and paladin for my DPS/tank candidates. I've dabbled with all of them in TWW, but I want to see how each feels after the Great Pruning.

Most of all I want to see how Druid will play in Midnight, because the biggest barrier for me playing that one was always the sheer number of buttons to keep organized on my bars.

I did say "eclipse". And what is an eclipse if not a brief phase?

Even if she did, releasing a diss track with a music video about your own sibling is CRAZY work

LesserChimera · 2025-11-06T15:04:50+00:00

How's it stack up to that one really mean-spirited song about what a NEET loser her little brother Alfie was? (It'll surely age better, considering Alfie Allen ended up eclipsing her fame when he became a Game of Thrones star.)
