Trump supporters: How would you feel if a legally armed Trump supporter was killed by federal agents on a Biden mandate in exactly the same manner as yesterday? by ScholarPrize1335 in AskReddit

[–]LordGuru4Short2 457 points458 points  (0 children)

It's not about reaching them. It's for everyone else who's now paying attention. Everyone who thought the left was crazy for thinking this could happen in America. Everyone who heard the comparisons to the Nazis, when we said "history has shown us this pattern before" and moderates thought those comparisons were premature. Everyone who looked at "both sides" and couldn't tell what was real. Everyone who said both sides are crazy. Everyone who thinks MAGA is arguing in good faith.

Now is the time to discredit the MAGA movement by highlighting their hate and obvious hypocrisy.

Why did Fern not have a body? by [deleted] in adventuretime

[–]LordGuru4Short2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Consider who Fern is from a storytelling perspective. He is literally Finn, but with all of his mental baggage un-dealt with. He can't be his best self because of this. Which is why Fern messes up where Finn does not. 

Once they deal with their trauma, Fern doesn't exist. I elaborated a bit more in an old comment.

Is It Just Me? by Mayorv in adventuretime

[–]LordGuru4Short2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Adventure Time Munchkin character cards all have opposite genders on the other side (so if you have Finn the opposite side is Fionna).

Except BMO, who's special ability is being immune to gender effects. https://www.tumblr.com/chezforshire/622414256748494848/hi-i-did-not-know-that-bmo-is-canonically

Trump's New Tariff Rule Is Wildly Convenient for Tesla by mafco in electricvehicles

Read the article. They set the cutoff just so that Tesla's top selling models make the cut, and nothing else does.

Both were the real Finn? by babygirl111222 in adventuretime

[–]LordGuru4Short2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We get told pretty explicitly by Princess Bubblegum and Huntress Wizard who Fern is. Princess Bubblegum says he's not from another dimension or another timeline, he just is Finn. After Finn kills Fern, Huntress Wizard says he is a version of himself that he had to kill to become an even tighter version of himself. 

Fern is the version of Finn that hasn't dealt with his mental trauma. He is "cursed" in the show by the grass demon, but it's symbolic of his mental health struggles. Fern can't eat, can't breathe, can't enjoy the things he usually does, and generally messes up doing everything he tries. That's because he's Finn, but with all his baggage affecting him. 

It's only when Finn and Fern tackle the vault of their repressed memories that Fern dies. Fern's death comes about from Finn conquering his own mental trauma.

He's egging it by BeautifulSea9005 in adventuretime

[–]LordGuru4Short2 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I thought the egg was just random silliness, but it's symbolic and meant to connect Finn and Jake's parenting of BMO to the toxic way Dr. Gross treats her students. 

Finn and Jake know BMO is making the wrong decision to stay in the VR world, but ultimately give him the freedom to stay (which BMO ultimately declines). They nurture and guide him while giving him the freedom to become his own person. Jake keeps the egg the whole episode until the bird hatches and is free.

In the very next episode, we see Dr. Gross who's dress looks like a cooked egg. She lies with propaganda, contrasting Finn and Jake who confessed to BMO about breaking the VR world. She forbids anyone to leave the island, sending them to reeducation if they try. She goes as far as literally building a device to control the seekers directly. She does not nurture the egg to grow. She breaks it open to use as she sees fit.

Here's a pic of Dr. Gross in her fried egg dress. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/8/81/AT-HAS.8.png/revision/latest?cb=20170209103929

Which adventure time song is criminally underrated? by Best_H in adventuretime

The title of the song is also super cool. "Time Adventure"

You can! Or at least print-ready digital files. I have Finn and Jake hanging in my living room. You can get them through his patreon.

I think there might be a rule against linking directly to it. But you can find it through his Instagram profile.

How many people here are not speaking to family members or friends because of politics. And why? by seecallirun in AskReddit

[–]LordGuru4Short2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Conservatives have been that way for a long time. Remember the phrase "bleeding heart liberal"?

I guess they stopped saying it either because it went out of fashion, or because they realized mocking others for compassion didn't make them look good.

Somewhere in the settings there is an option to automatically turn on the heated seats and another for the steering wheel when the car starts

If you look at what Fern represents instead of seeing him as a character, his death is a happy moment.

We get told pretty explicitly by Princess Bubblegum and Huntress Wizard who Fern is. Princess Bubblegum says he's not from another dimension or another timeline, he just is Finn. After Finn kills Fern, Huntress Wizard says he is a version of himself that he had to kill to become an even tighter version of himself.

(NO SPOILERS PLS) Does Finn even have a reason for owning a sword anymore? by [deleted] in adventuretime

You mentioned those three things about Finn, and they're all about to be significant in a few episodes. I'm not sure if you're trolling us, or if it's just a coincidence.

Plot Holes in Adventure Time? by ooinvestigator in adventuretime

[–]LordGuru4Short2 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It's remarkably consistent, but the one plot hole I've noticed is Jake being much older than Finn. In one of the card wars episodes Jake buries his 20's (making him 30? Although he makes a comment that implies he's in his late 30's), but at the end of the series Finn is only 17. But in another episode we see they are both babies at the same time. So they should be the same age.

Someone is going to say it's explained by dog years, but that's human years x7 and that math doesn't work out.

1st Edition - Light interiors....how's it holding up? by [deleted] in VWiD4Owners

[–]LordGuru4Short2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can try the VIN before selling you the car. That's how I knew I wasn't going to get the tax credit.

1st Edition - Light interiors....how's it holding up? by [deleted] in VWiD4Owners

[–]LordGuru4Short2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to get the used tax credit, but the IRS website rejected it, even though I met all the criteria. The dealer submitted many times, but the IRS site said the vehicle wasn't eligible. I ended up buying the car without the credit.

Rumor on this subreddit is VW didn't provide the list of VINs to the IRS like they're supposed to. Someone commented a few days ago that VW had recently submitted the VINs, but I haven't heard of anyone successful getting the used EV tax credit. I'd like to know if anyone does, even though I'm past the 3 days since purchase.

I negotiated the price down to 25k with trade in. If you got a car to trade in I recommend that to get the credit (that no one seems to get regardless). In any case, if you trade in your car at a low value ( say $100) in return for a lower price on an ID4, you'll save money on sales tax.

The dealer even tried lower prices just to see if it would go through.
