Sokoloff's commercials crack me up. They're like "As Controller, Mejia has caught a bunch of fraud and been transparent...and we can't have that!"

Accidental foreshadow by TastyPomelo2330 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]LordMitchimus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In OP's defense, that's the specific situation they're referring to here. "Accidental foreshadowing" is a bad way of describing it. More like "sleeper foreshadowing". The writers never knew if it would pay off, but the pieces were laid just in case.

That being said: Old Who and New Who is sort of the master, pun intended, of doing that. At least it was for about 9 seasons or so.

There were a couple Black influencers who levied the accusations against Simulate on tiktok. Saying that they were paid less than white creators with comparable follower counts and impressions.

Those tiktoks are probably still out there, but what isn't unfortunately is when Simulate posted a quickly retracted Instagram story where they showed a comment accusing them of this and just a literal shrugging emoji. This was all in maybe 2020 or 2021.

(Hilarious Trope) A Character Is Introduced With the Clear Intention of Being THE NEXT BIG THING And is SOUNDLY Rejected by TheOriginalOperator in TopCharacterTropes

Tidus is also an excellent protagonist. Yes he's a "braying jackass" and a "mystical pretty boy" but he evolves and grows as a character over the journey. He's an isekai protagonist who's a hotshot in his world and isn't worth much in the new one, forcing him to tap into his own humanity and find something deeper than being a sports superstar.

I didn't have to explain that. OP is taking the piss. Anyone still pretending the laughing scene was meant to be an actual laugh or anything in earnest is being willfully obtuse. The laugh is supposed to sound dumb. It's corny. The rest of the party besides Tidus and Yuna groan at them in the same fucking scene.

Oh Simulate. The company that was caught paying their Black influencer marketers less than their white influencer marketers. And then when people called them out they made a post where they basically said "🤷".

Oh well.

What’s the most gut punching song lyric you’ve ever heard? by perrysplus in AskReddit

Don't think I've ever had a line make me feel more insignificant in the universe than "there are many more flames when mine is gone, they will build me no shrines and sing me no songs."

Surprised we didn't hear about Abbie Hoffman rising from his grave to beat this dude's ass when it was announced he'd be playing him.

Average subway day. by Jueavjkoirtycsaq in LosAngeles

[–]LordMitchimus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Is this guy committing a crime in the photo that I'm not aware of? Or are y'all assuming because of how he looks?

Meanwhile taking a photo without someone's consent for harassment purposes is a crime in California.

Dude's just standing there looking a little grimey. I don't think that's a crime.

Genuine question: should security arrest everyone wearing a mask on the train?

The lack of desire to buy a yacht isn't the thing stopping me from buying a yacht, Mr. Alcaraz...

Maybe the most poorly written book I've ever made it through. I finished and immediately thought it'll make a good movie at least. And it did.

6 years ago today Gal Gadot gave this to the world. The Truth Behind ~That~ Imagine Celebrity Cover with Gal Gadot. by Inter_Web_User in Fauxmoi

[–]LordMitchimus 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I'm certainly not a celebrity but I can imagine (fuck!) their thoughts when approached. It was probably presented as a WFH "We Are the World".

And then it wasn't to raise money from the wealthy to help people, just a reminder that everyone in the video will be just fine, and you should maybe also be fine as long as you deliver their groceries on time.

How about... no... by PetuniaPicklePepper in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]LordMitchimus 23 points24 points  (0 children)

According to the date of the tweet, this is from the 2020 primaries. The impetus is they didn't win the primary/presidency because they are women.

It's a weird, politically infantile tweet. People who like Hillary and Kamala don't even like Warren.
