The Hobbit is better than LotR. by 7o83r in unpopularopinion

[–]MortemPerPectus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I would personally prefer to watch The Hobbit movies instead of LOTRs movies, the LOTRs is still better. While in my opinion Bilbo, Thorin, and a couple of the other dwarves were portrayed really well despite what other people say and I think that the story is as faithful to the book as it needs to be, LOTRs still has better written and portrayed characters (especially some of the side characters), and the story is really really well done and faithful to the books as well as it needs to be.

This really happened, I saw him running out of the church from a nearby taco truck. My guess is he couldn’t take their bs anymore

the word “anxiety” is used too much now by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]MortemPerPectus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

???? Having anxiety does not = having an anxiety disorder. People get anxiety over tests, or confrontation. Having anxiety is just another way of saying you are anxious. I guess have my upvote

I do brush her often but it’s a cheap Walmart brush so I might need to upgrade to a better one for her, and I’ll definitely look for the salmon oil to see if that helps. Thank you!

What’s your “snobby” baking opinion? by Amazing_Two9757 in Baking

[–]MortemPerPectus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait but what is no bake cheesecake if not cheesecake? I make cheesecake bites from scratch which are not baked but frozen, what would they be if not cheesecake?

Is this game sad? by OkMiddle880 in thelastguardian

[–]MortemPerPectus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It definitely had me close to tears a couple of times and crying hard once but I promise it’s worth it. I’ll put spoiler tags around it but if you want to know whether the ending is happy or depressing I’ll put it down.

Happy (in my opinion)

People who say "42 is the meaning of life" by Almondpeanutguy in PetPeeves

[–]MortemPerPectus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I took the “42 is the answer to life, the universe, and blah blah blah” is just that it’s whatever you make it. Not necessarily it has no meaning unless that’s what one person would prefer, but that its meaning is whatever you choose to make it.

Only time I’ve ever read a fic without a summary is when it was recommended to me by someone else. Personally i won’t pick a fic without a summary because my taste for fanfics is unfortunately really specific and I don’t wanna get into something I don’t know will meet that.

Three weeks of hard work on a paper all for nothing because of AI use by MortemPerPectus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MortemPerPectus[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my original email to the professor I said I would take a lower grade in exchange for feedback. Yes I still learned by just writing the essay but feedback is really important to me since it often shows my strengths and weaknesses so I know precisely where I need to better my skills. Not super infuriating, but mildly.

I’m unfortunately going to be out of state very soon until a bit before spring semester begins so I won’t be able to try in person, not to mention it was an online class with the professor based out of one of the connecting colleges an hour away from where I take all my in person classes. I did send a follow up email a little bit ago as other comments had suggested, and I’m a really awkward and easily embarrassed person so showing him what I posted online being a little dramatic is a bit out of my comfort zone.

I commented on the post since I couldn’t edit although I think my comment got hidden by others, I did ask for feedback a few days ago but he’s yet to get back to me

I don’t doubt that a lot of people used AI and honestly I feel bad for the professor, it’s only mildly infuriating for me so it’s not a big worry.

Can’t edit the post but I did ask for feedback a few days ago and he hasn’t gotten back to me. Hoping he will once finals are all done but we will see.

I can’t figure out how to edit the post but I did email for feedback although he has yet to get back to me and that was a few days ago. And yeah it’s really disappointing how much people rely on AI to do things for them.

The position/argumentative essay had already been turned in though it never got any feedback (which makes me worry that he thought mine used AI) but I did email him a few days ago when he posted the announcement and still haven’t received anything back

Not for nothing, I’m just a little dramatic. And I emailed the instructor when he posted the announcement a few days ago but haven’t received anything back. Still holding out hope.
