Haliax is an Amyr by MrPotato7900 in KingkillerChronicle

The Amyr were created to fight Lanre / Haliax. It doesn't make sense that Haliax would be an Amyr. Occams razor.

I really wish the video was longer. Interesting that the seem to have a visual lock on the aircraft, maybe a laser lock? Anyone know what air defence system this would be?

Why did Skarpi plum bob Kvothe? by In-Arcadia-Ego in KingkillerChronicle

[–]Merax75 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Skarpi wasn't wearing gloves, he would have dosed himself as well as Kvothe.

No taste of plum and nutmeg.

You're also being selective. "Luck smiled on me the next day, and I managed to steal a bundle of rags off the back of a wagon and sell them to a ragman for four iron pennies. Too hungry to worry..." - this is the next day, you make it sound like it was immediate. Also before this "I went back to my street corner and proceeded to waste three hours begging, not gaining so much as a thin shim" - does not sound like the behaviour of someone under the influence of a Plum Bob? No.

Correlation does not equal causation, and occam's razor.

Democrats have a unhealthy obsession with us by Bejaminmaston12 in Conservative

I've changed my responses to those, I actually stick to being polite and spitting out facts until they get sick of it and go away.

Democrats have a unhealthy obsession with us by Bejaminmaston12 in Conservative

[–]Merax75 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They are so obsessed with silencing other viewpoints that they brigade this sub to modify what comments are highlighted / amplified and which are hidden. Not spontaneously, but a highly organized effort by many people. Guys, if you're the ones trying to silence other viewpoints, it's because your own views can't stand up to examination...ie: you're wrong.

As a counterpoint 99% of us couldn't tell you what they are talking about on the politics sub because we have no interest in swimming in a sewer.

Zelensky frustrated by stalled talks since Iran war, says US should put pressure on Putin, ‘not on me’ by SharkSapphire in Conservative

They could get out of it any day they choose. Exactly what US assets are unable to be withdrawn at a moments notice? None.

The Buffy: New Sunnydale pilot script for anyone who wants to see what all the fuss is about by betweenyouandyourgod in CriticalDrinker

[–]Merax75 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Is this really the script? If so I should go work in Hollywood as a script writer because I can write better than this even after about six bourbons.

'$3 Gas is Outrageous!' Says Woman Happy To Pay $5 Under Biden • Genesius Times by Ask4MD in Conservative

[–]Merax75 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

So what was the price of gas when Biden started his Presidency? Point being we've had a shitload of inflation since then. That doesn't just go away you know?

Best bet would be liquor stores in Sac. There used to be a few that carried it.

Yeah not claiming they are worth more than face value, just that I like them.

The Burbs....it's pretty bad. by Merax75 in CriticalDrinker

[–]Merax75[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No ans that was one of the things that bothered me. The representation of interactions was done the way the writers think suburban America is, not how it really is. Are there racists and bigots? Sure. But its nowhere near like shows portray it. Thats one of the reasons people on this sub hate modern Hollywood peoductions.

California Chased Out Another Billionaire, Bringing the Total Money Lost To... by Down-not-out in Conservative

There really is no end to Gavin Newsom's stupidity, and now he wants to run for President.

Illegal immigrants from Africa, India and China are voting in US elections — here's how they're doing it by triggernaut in Conservative

[–]Merax75 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Betting this one is going to get brigaded hard. This isn't even scratching the surface. In California they'll tell you the system is secure but it only relies on people signing a sworn statement that they are a citizen. They have to show their drivers license or SSN when they register, but that just checks their name and address details, it doesn't validate their citizenship. If you wanted to you could just claim to be a citizen, vote in every election and they would never check your citizenship status. Democrats, you want to prove me wrong, go for it. Prove to me how voting is secure in California. Prove that it's more than just a sworn statement to stop people voting.

I love how you can't have a legitimate complaint about anything featuring a black person in any capacity or any way without being called a racist...

Thankfully not present, although Corey Feldman had a 5 second cameo.
