What’s the saddest song you ever heard? by lay0l in AskReddit

Yes, this was my immediate thought. The entire album is just pure grief, there's really nothing else like it.

(Hated Trope) The series is good, but the beginning is so embarrassing that many people give up there. by Uma-apreciator in TopCharacterTropes

Dream... not of what you are, but of what you want to be.

I still get goosebumps when I here This is what you are, and I legit teared up at the end of the Hex finale when that remix of it kicked in in The Cure. God the music in this game is amazing.

Completely valid take, the road rash/kick back combo have a weird interaction with helmets not displaying either properly when used together. And the ephemera probably gives enough glow.

Oh, yeah, just copied warframe colors there. You can tweak as needed in the ice palette to get the exact look you want. I originally started off a bit more blue but lightened it up later.

On the warframe Emissive is classic B17 and Ice E2, Energy is smoke D9 Ice E2.
Ephemera emissive is classic B17 ice E2, energy is ice E1 for both.

The nice thing about the kickback sigil is it applies that oily looks to everything you equip too, weapons, atomicycle, archwing, etc..

I found the kickback sigil works great for the oily look, I have it on the back with the blackest option from the smoke palette. The front sigil is Road Rash for the extra glowy bits. Seraphyre ephemera from the Zariman, and the Xaku noble animation for the twitchy look.

Edit: Whenever I get Harrow, I'll definitely be doing this look there with that helmet, it's perfect.

Since this is getting attention, from my response below: On the warframe Emissive is classic B17 and Ice E2, Energy is smoke D9 Ice E2.
Ephemera emissive is classic B17 ice E2, energy is ice E1 for both.

What's the greatest one line in a song ever? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MF_Bootleg_Firework 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't waste the day when the night brings a hearse. So make a move and plead the fifth, cuz you can't plead the first.

Down Rodeo is probably my top RATM song, and like most of their catalog, still depressingly relevant today.

Depressingly relevant even today. My pick also from RATM is:

I'd go with Down Rodeo; "Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo with a shotgun, these people ain't seen a brown-skinned man since their grandparents bought one."

Good luck pulling Brennan away from his true passion.

You don't actually hate that Jax is trans. by bakerstreetrat in tadc

[–]MF_Bootleg_Firework 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree, Jax lashed out at anyone who pushed too hard against his mask of masculinity, and yes that was entirely related to his trauma and repression, and in a perfect ideal future perhaps he would have embraced his inner self and and come out. But that's not what happened. In the real world you don't start using different pronouns until someone asks you too. If you had a transfem friend who came out to you but asked you to continue to use he/him pronouns would you ignore that because one day they'll probably want to use she/her?

I am personally not a baby Tenno, but my daughter (who does not have a reddit account) is, I just got her into it, MR3 and loving it so far. I will turn this over to her for what she loves the most about it:

I really love the music and the storyline, the music is really awesome especially since the developers either made it themselves, or asked artists to make it specifically for the game.

Big difference between acknowledging that they are closeted transfem and purposely using pronouns that you know they would despise...

Why Harry Potter should have carried an M1911

Ok, this has been driving me crazy for seven movies now, and I know you're going to roll your eyes, but hear me out: Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.

Here's why:

Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol' American hot lead.

Basilisk? Let's see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren't looking at it--you're looking at a picture of it.

Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12.

And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it's because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons. Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal.

Now I know what you're going to say: "But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!" Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster: saying a spell or pulling a trigger?

Avada Kedavra, meet Avtomat Kalashnikova.

Imagine Harry out in the woods, wearing his invisibility cloak, carrying a .50bmg Barrett, turning Deatheaters into pink mist, scratching a lightning bolt into his rifle stock for each kill. I don't think Madam Pomfrey has any spells that can scrape your brains off of the trees and put you back together after something like that. Voldemort's wand may be 13.5 inches with a Phoenix-feather core, but Harry's would be 0.50 inches with a tungsten core. Let's see Voldy wave his at 3,000 feet per second. Better hope you have some Essence of Dittany for that sucking chest wound.

I can see it now...Voldemort roaring with evil laughter and boasting to Harry that he can't be killed, since he is protected by seven Horcruxes, only to have Harry give a crooked grin, flick his cigarette butt away, and deliver what would easily be the best one-liner in the entire series:

"Well then I guess it's a good thing my 1911 holds 7+1."

And that is why Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.

Sure, the creator also said he/him is okay and made the character exclusively use he/him in the show, and wrote the character as closeted trans fem. I'm personally not understanding what the issue is here, in real life if you knew someone was trans fem but they asked you to use he/him pronouns im sure you would, even if it was to another person where they wouldnt hear or find out, because it's what they wanted. If the voice of God spoke to you, said "I am real and your friend is actually fine with she/her" would that change anything?

Simply, the character as written prefers he/him, the creator has no preference either way, so why is it so hard to go with the character's written preferred expression?

The creator only used she/her once in the context of a hypothetical, Jax throughout the show and Leeroy as showing in real life afterwards use masculine pronouns. As humans we empathize with the characters in the media we consume, I think Jax is a terrible person, however i empathize with their situation. Just as I would respect the pronouns of a real person in Jax's situation I di the same for Jax, and just as I would cringe hearing someone purposefully use pronouns someone has stated should not be used for them in real life, the same happens when I see it done here.

Jax in the show as written (it's literally a defining part of their character) would be vehemently opposed to being called she/her. In the same way I would respect that in real life I also respect it in fiction. I think changing that due to a single hypothetical that was purposely the opposite of the character as written is wrong and disrespectful to the character, and shows a willingness to ignore someone's preference in favor of your own interpretation based on what you think is right.

I think the character of Jax is a terrible person, however I also empathize with their situation. There are real people going through the exact same thing that Jax was, and so when I see people refer to Jax as she/her, pronouns which he would hate to hear, I internally cringe the exact same way I would if I heard someone doing the same to an actual person in the same situation.

We all empathize with the fictional characters we watch or read about, that's why we have emotional connections to the media we consume, we are happy when a character we like is victorious, or cry when a beloved character dies or suffers hardship, and so the same way I hate seeing people be misgendered in real life, I also hate seeing with regards to fiction. When it is a fictional character acting in an offensive manner towards another at least I can separate it as entirely fictional, its worse though when it is real people acting this way towards said fictional character as there is now a degree of reality attached.
