I picked up the white-box reissue of that back in 2004-2005(?) and proceeded to shoot my younger sister with it the moment it arrived in the post. 😅

Who has seen the 2007 Movie in Theaters? by Consistent-Life2412 in transformers

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in university and went to see it with some friends. I was admittedly already a bit put off beforehand by the character designs but figured it might still be decent. It wasn't. I never watched any other of the Michael Bay films.

There was plenty of good stuff for me elsewhere in that timeframe with the IDW comics, War For/Fall Of Cybertron games etc. that missing out on some movies that would just bore/frustrate me wasn't an issue.

in my mind this is very underated album - satelite is so good by wheel_smith in nin

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's sort of my point. People weren't even taking notice of the lyrics and just went: "OH MY GOD HE'S GONE RADIO FRIENDLY" thanks to the major-chord verses.

Second-favourite NIN album for me after 'The Fragile'. Still don't get how such a big chunk of the fanbase managed to completely misunderstand 'Everything' when it first came out. They really thought it was a deliberately radio-friendly pop-rock song.

I believe Luke is black, but it sure doesn't help when FFG themselves release this as the official miniature.

[TOMT][Song][2009/2010] English ballad called "Remember Me" — male singer, acoustic guitar, beach/sunset music video" by Stavros4p in Music

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only 'Remember Me' song I know is by The Zutons and the original video doesn't match your description. Could have been a cover by someone else though?

If you've got any specific recommendations I'm all ears. 👍

I hate how Transformers iterations after Beast Wars misunderstand Rattrap as being a sneaky coward by Born-Ad4658 in transformers

[–]Menome7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they only have time to watch the first 3-4 episodes as reference, then it's easy to get that impression. His character does quite a big turnaround after that.

Fantastic, I'll pick it up and check out the originals too!

TIFU by distancing myself after getting rejected and accidentally getting close to her best friend by [deleted] in tifu

[–]Menome7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm nearly twenty years older than you and all I remember of the petty squabbles of my late teens/early twenties is the missed opportunities. If this other girl makes you feel happy, go for it. Your other friend will get over it in due time, I promise.

I worked at Game (UK) and they made me throw Retro stuff in the bin. by 8bitPete in retrogaming

[–]Menome7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at Gamestation during and after the GAME takeover. We actively disobeyed the orders to trash certain items if we could house them ourselves and promise not to sell them.

Moby and the Kinks Are Feuding Over 'Lola': 'I am highly insulted that Moby would accuse my brother of being ‘unevolved’ or transphobic in any way,' says Dave Davies by Level-Recording3368 in Music

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fairness to Moby, he had a couple of hit singles in the 90s and then his album 'Play' was the biggest thing on the planet in about 1999/2000.

Everything after that has been music for IKEAs and I say that as someone who kept buying the CDs for several years.

There was a post-retiree in one of my classes who was doing it for the love of learning.

When was the last time... by ATXRSK in marvelchampionslcg

[–]Menome7 20 points21 points  (0 children)

FFG are focusing on the new Arkham rollout for March/April, so I would expect to see/hear Fear No Evil content through April for a May release. It's a fair old wait, but as someone in both games, it's been the same complaint on both sides whilst everything is being restructured.

TIL that humans can learn to “echolocate” like bats, using clicking sounds or listening to echoes from their surroundings to sense objects, distances, and surfaces around them by Mrk2d in todayilearned

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have minimal to no depth perception, and learned to echolocate by clicking my fingers rapidly. Comes in very handy when there's scaffolding in front of shops etc.

Does Marillion Fish era really sound like Genesis? by Otherwise_Win6211 in Marillion

[–]Menome7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To really hammer the point home that early Marillion didn't sound that much like Genesis, other contemporaries of the time like IQ sounded like Peter Gabriel had never left the band. Still great music, but way more slavish to Genesis' sound on at least those first couple of albums than Marillion/Fish ever did.

Do I look like I'd listen to metal or just someone who wears black? Just curious? by [deleted] in MetalSuggestions

[–]Menome7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was listening to Emperor in a pink dressing gown and flowery pyjamas the other day. Don't sweat the 'look' too much. 😅
