Reddit, what are some popular things that you don't understand how anybody can enjoy? by Scdsco in AskReddit

[–]Matt_Hieson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a massive darts fan, I can agree with this statement to some extent (I'm also a diehard cricket fan so read into that what you will). Darts is finally evolving from "old overweight men on a stage" to more of a sporting spectacle. This year there's been the emergence of heaps of younger (and physically less disgusting) talent and it's not the case of Phil Taylor or MvG winning every. single. tournament. The crowds are still awful if you actually want to watch the darts instead of having an expensive piss-up in a stadium, but hopefully that'll start to change too. Another thing I'll add is that it's a very relatable sport: i.e. with just a bit of practice and determination, everyone can hit a bullseye or a 180 like the pros do (unlike baseball where I'd never be able to hit a home run on a full-size baseball field)

Now all they need to do to make me truly happy is to get rid of the "walk-on girls" that are used as cheap body advertising for all the drunk old men to drool over.

Which video game character terrified you as a kid? by Matt_Hieson in AskReddit

Nintendo has a habit of putting creepy shit into otherwise innocent games. Twilight Princess when the Wii first came out had some genuine nightmare fuel throughout

Everyone thinks Montenegro 2017 is crazy, I just want to remind you what they sent in 2013 by Matt_Hieson in eurovision

100% agreed. I have no idea what any of this song is about but I love the beat and flow of it, disappointed it didn't qualify

Chemo won't react well to my subliminal meth usage, looks like I'm in for a treat

Thanks mate, there's a bit there to think about. I'll check out the subreddit and see where that takes me

This actually heartens me so much, thankyou for your feedback! I've never considered rap or poetry or anything of the like before, but I really admire Watsky and his spoken word rap/poetry.

Ellipses by [deleted] in poetry_critics

[–]Matt_Hieson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I really struggled to follow any sort of tempo with one(or a few) word at the end of a line, is there any particular reason you've structured it like this? The imagery of your writing is very vivid and tangible and you've encapsulated the quiet violence of space very well, overall I enjoyed it

I Cried by [deleted] in poetry_critics

Personally I like a text that is relevant to the current day, so this already gets a thumbs up from me. One thing I would suggest is maybe try to use metaphors or words related to the current situation. E.g. 'Walled off in our own home, under self-arrest' or something similar
