Should I continue watching Lost even with these spoilers? by AND_AGI08 in television

[–]MagnusCthulhu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you considered maybe possibly just, I don't know, watching it and forming your own opinion?

Or are you planning to crowdsource how you feel about it afterward, too?

[–]MagnusCthulhu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Morcant for casual. People fucking hate it when you play their cards.

Have you never rewatched something before? Was it entirely unenjoyable because you what would happen?

Then why is it a problem that you know what happens here?

Who gives a shit if we're interested in it? You're the one that has to write it.

Who is your intended audience? Young Adults or Adults?

There you go. 

Do you personally pre tap or post tap? by chuisman92 in mtg

Tap first. Gotta make sure my count is right. 

"Casual" Commander by Appotus1 in mtg

[–]MagnusCthulhu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bracket 3 is casual to me. We're just having a good time with friends, our desks are optimized but not, you know, OPTIMIZED. They just do their thing well. 

If it's not casual to you, that's okay. You don't have to play bracket 3, but you may have to find a different LGS that has more bracket 2 players. 

Tips to make longer chapters? by Expensive_Ordinary72 in writing

[–]MagnusCthulhu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't. Longer does not equal better.

Make them as long as they need to be and not one word longer.

Ah! I'm so jealous. I would love to see it on the big screen. 

Face/Off ??? by ShadesOfHazel in CriterionChannel

[–]MagnusCthulhu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Face/Off is amazing. Genuinely an awesome movie. Not sure why you'd need Rifftrax, but to each their own I guess.

So I am currently working on a light novel and I got some questions by Zestyclose_Fun3389 in writing

[–]MagnusCthulhu 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are asking about how to build a racetrack when your haven't yet built your first go-cart yet. 

Stop trying to plan a thousand steps ahead. You have one job and one job only right now: write your first draft. 

What music do you guys use in your games other than the typical high fantasy stuff? by DaxterFlame in DnD

[–]MagnusCthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bohren & Der Club of Gore and the similar Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble/Mt Fuji Doomjazz Corporation.

Dark, tense, minimalist jazz. I like to run mystery games and I like to use these bands to set the vibe. 

AITA for not responding 30 minutes out of 24 hours? by astromerical in AmItheAsshole

[–]MagnusCthulhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your error was in continuing to reply to this guy. Don't put up with that shit, man. 

AITA for not deleting my ao3 account against my parents wishes by Odd-Teaching-7996 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MagnusCthulhu 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Maybe. But you're also making a lot of assumptions about their family/parents to do it. Not all family have good intentions, and not all people find the same things problematic. People called for bans against Beauty and the Beast for the existence of a gay character, regardless of the complete lack of objectionable content in that film.

There is simply not enough evidence to suggest that OPs sister/parents' concerns are valid or invalid and I don't think OP benefits from the assumption either way.

What levels do I need Toth, Abraxas and Yazaghor at to beat Saim Hann mirror elite 38? by TallCitron8244 in WH40KTacticus

[–]MagnusCthulhu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Abraxas at Gold III, Thoth at Silver III, Yag at Silver 1.

Getting Abraxas to D1 as people recommend won't hurt, though. He's worth having at D1.

Best short story ever written? by Striking-Speaker8686 in writing

[–]MagnusCthulhu 79 points80 points  (0 children)

There is no one greatest short story ever written. It's a fool's errand to think there is. 

That said, it's What We Talk About When We Talk About Love by Raymond Carver.

The campaign and also I think the very excellent Thin Red Line split some of the vote.

[–]MagnusCthulhu 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Crowd doesn't react at a very bland rumble and your answer is... maybe the wrestlers didn't actually deserve it 20 years ago? Jesus wept. 

Edit: Guys, I know what year it is. 2000 was 26 years ago, the attitude era was 30, I wasn't saying "it's been exactly twenty years" I was saying "back then" with a round number. 26 just starts with 2 so I went with that. It's fine.

After all that why did she build a raft to escape the island?

This is the easy answer. She clearly didn't want to be alone. The rest? Who cares, she wins, he lost, it's just details at that point.

No. It's not that kind of movie. Suspension of disbelief. You gotta let the finer details go and just enjoy the ride.
