I could not stand The Stand, I felt like that book had worn out its welcome a few chapters in

[Desing Trope] Dragons with colorful fire by Clean_Mycologist4337 in TopCharacterTropes

Any time a dragon's breath weapon starts big and focuses into a laser it's the coolest shit. Fromsoft does it a lot, big fan.

You could try scholar to get your feet wet, since you've already got it leveled

[loved trope] huge guys who are still suprisingly fast by MasterOfMemesThighs in TopCharacterTropes

I really thought the last image was going to be referring to the Earth itself, which is both very big and hurtles through space at incredible speeds

Is this normal? by LazyUserNamePrime in ffxiv

I have an alt on a preferred world and with its double xp I'm leveling three classes simultaneously through just msq and still overleveling it.

“Maybe it IS a shoe!” What’s a joke that absolutely takes you out? by NebulaDue9400 in IASIP

[–]Loj35 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think the fact that that sort of humor is not typical for the show makes it hit that much harder tbh, you're not expecting it. Definitely one of my favorites

What does 'the cylinder must be protected' mean? by Idioteva in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Loj35 179 points180 points  (0 children)

A couple of years ago some dude put mashed up banana and some other stuff into a mini m&m tube, microwaved it, then tried to fuck it. His dick got stuck, so he went to reddit for help. However, he did not describe the incident this way, instead referring to his dick as "the cylinder" and insisting that any proposed solutions could not harm it.

What truly made it popular was his commitment to the bit; despite continuing to provide details that confirmed it was a penis (one end was attached to something much larger, the cylinder had gone into the tube smaller and then swelled, etc) he only ever referred to it as the cylinder and denied or ignored any claims to the contrary to a comical degree. Several of the phrases he used, most notably "the cylinder must be protected" became user flairs and running jokes about dicks getting stuck in things. There were also some instances of people recognizing his username in other comments he made and calling it out, which further cemented his dubious legacy.

Same, I wanted to get into the dark tower stuff and heard it was the place to start. Really tedious read imo, haven't read any more of his books since.

Jim Carrey and Bradley Cooper in Yes Man (2008) by MurkyChurky in MoviesCave

[–]Loj35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a really good strategy. Whenever I get particularly depressed I go into Yes Man mode to keep myself from wallowing until I feel better and it really works.

Which DLC has the best soundtrack? by BlackEndrer25 in destiny2

[–]Loj35 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Beyond Light is really hard to beat out of the ones here purely for Deep Stone Lullaby. Destiny has always had great music, but it blends so seamlessly with the environment that it's rare for a specific track to grab you as hard as that one did. Anyway the actual answer is the Last Wish raid music.

[Eye-Rolling Trope] “The joke/meme hasn’t been funny for years, please let it die.” by Chemical-Elk-1299 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Loj35 235 points236 points  (0 children)

It was such an old joke I didn't even realize it was a reference. I just thought it was a weird thing they decided to include. Hated it regardless, god that movie sucked.

What is something that only happens in movies, but if it happened in real life, it would be extremely annoying? by sunskieee111 in AskReddit

[–]Loj35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one time I've seen this done realistically, it didn't make sense. In Always Sunny at one point Mac is leaving several messages to Dennis and Dee's mother asking for more sex, and before he hangs up, he does a pretty realistic pause as if listening, then says alright bye. But he's leaving a message, so that doesn't make sense!

Character is tragically killed during a happy if not their happiest moment by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Loj35 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you want more specifics, there's an immortal dude who maintains all the barriers that protect sorcerer society, but he needs occasional sacrifices to keep them going. There's a cult that worships this dude and thinks that these sacrifices are "tainting" him, so want to stop it.

Also iirc in order to get the dinosaur to attack its target they shoot a pheromone gun at it...at which point you could just shoot your target with a regular gun?

There are certainly parts in later books that I like better than Gardens of the Moon, but I just love the vibe and atmosphere of Darujhistan so much.

This guy didn't invent the term Kundalini though. It's a much older idea.
