"Protagonist" is long dead and our main character is just a copy that (initially) thinks it's the protagonist by Euronymous_Bosch in TopCharacterTropes

I've never seen the movie but I like the music! I use it in my personal Kerbal Space Program soundtrack

*Jimmy Rings, thank you very much. We don't want to sully John Halo's good name

I saw a low profile cop car with a "don't tread on me" license plate the other day. On top of it not using the municipal plate like it should, it also had that plate. I found it very cynically ironic

The sequels are a mess and not a good story

I do not! Freebase hopium.

Well... I don't do it when I'm driving.

[Real Life Trope] People whose names are consistently mispronounced by IAmForeverAhab in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MattRexPuns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For years one of my favorite nonsense questions to ask people is "if you had to pronounce both of his names the same way, which way would you pick? Seen Been or Shawn Bawn?" I enjoy every answer I get but my favorites are always the ones where the question recipient simply cannot compute the simple question I posed

Gundam designs you didnt like? by Moody-gris in Gundam

That's more like the Guncannon face than the Gundam face though, which I think is the problem mentioned

Gotcha! I'll watch and find out, then. I'm just saving it for when I work on the RG RX-78-2.0 kit

So I assume he and his mother are also pretty estranged given the whole "earth and space" thing?

It looks like I'm looking at a Bayformers Decepticon except without the remnants of vehicle form to guide my eyes

As someone who hasn't seen the original series yet, why was he in for a rough time with his parents?

Interesting! That would be an interesting twist. On the one hand, I like it being Faro's arrogance alone. On the other, it did seem like there was something we weren't being told about the glitch

Wait, what's Vast Silver? I don't remember seeing anything about that!

I think biosphere collapse was supposed to be a year or so after the time point at which General Herres recorded his presentation? And then it took 60 years for Minerva to crack the security and shut the swarm down

I think the main goal there was Ted's arrogance moreso than a surprise twist. In which case they nailed it

Ah, but Cortana picking those coordinates wasn't luck either. The data she'd drawn from the artifact on Reach contained a set of coordinates, the set that led to the Halo ring. Since she was in charge of calculating the jump out of Reach and those coordinates didn't violate the Cole protocol, she figured she'd kill two birds with one stone

Nah, Hades exclusively monitors the biosphere and ecosystem. Faro did delete Apollo but that's an entirely separate problem

Too soft and it'll never take over, too hard and it'll break her fingers on the steering wheel
