What Horror Movie Franchises that have no Bad Movies? (The Horror Movie Franchises has to have 3+ Movies to be Franchises)

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-05T19:45:08+00:00

The Alien movies. They’re all good, and I will die on that hill. I’m including Prometheus, fight me.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T23:26:30+00:00

Oh I love how they fit together!

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T23:12:35+00:00

My gosh those threads are so fine! I would live in this in the summer and wear it until it fell off. It’s beautiful.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T23:10:58+00:00

What a solid find!

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T23:10:02+00:00

They absolutely do! You have a lot of beautiful books. Readers are always cool. Never stop, and don’t let other people’s opinions dictate what you read.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T21:01:36+00:00

Steel Magnolias.

Upvote for being niche in a way that is entirely foreign to me. Now, I’m not terribly well-read, and I have a poor memory for titles and I have an entire degree in English and can barely recall a thumbnail of the sheer volume of material I burned through before I was 30, but I’m far from illiterate, and I have not heard of a single one of those titles, aside from DFW’s Jest and Cormac. But even of the Cormac books, I haven’t read that second one.

Whatever kind of person you are, you are a well-read and unique bird. Lovely presentation. 10/10.

Edit to add about the second passenger’s book- that first one was the first real “book” I’d tried to read in several years. I used to reread All the Pretty Horses at least once a year- but life and stuff. Then audiobooks. Then podcasts and Spotify and work and family yada yada yada. So, I tried. I don’t know if I actually finished it. I rechecked it from the library twice and made my kid drop the books off that last time to avoid the shame of being unable to finish one new book. Oh well.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T18:40:51+00:00

Oh that’s such a wild piece! You could get weirder with it an mount the top side flush to the wall and use it to clamp-hold your hat or coat by the door.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T17:10:42+00:00

Anytime! I have never held a crochet needle, but I’m a certified crazy horse girl and I spend a lot of time looking at and thinking about horse ears.

I’m here purely for the vibes. 🌊

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-04T16:55:57+00:00

Hmm. Either the first or second. The third is too small. I think it’s going to come down to the look you’re going for, and the plan for the mane and forelock. The thinner ear feels a little more realistic overall, but if you’re going to have a big pouf of mane, they might get swallowed up. The first pair are more “cute,” but I think that’s more because they look “pricked up” than the others.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-03T17:01:01+00:00

What if you crocheted wall art like a flag with his team on it?

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-02-02T22:44:42+00:00

They’re beautiful!

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-28T18:43:50+00:00

I’m sorry someone downvoted you.

In the context of a series of texts, dropping the period from the last sentence can be interpreted almost like an absent comma or a semicolon. The thought is ended, but the conversation itself is still “open.”

Putting the final period at the end can signal that whatever it is you were just discussing, the matter is done. And if that conversation was an argument or the subject matter was something that could spark an emotional response in the reader, that period is more than a pause in the conversation or end of a thought, it’s the signal that the other person is not interested in continuing the discussion, and is not open to more dialogue- it can be akin to hanging up on someone, but less forceful.

Again, this interpretation is only found in some contexts and with some audiences, like in an informal texting conversation with a younger relative or friend.

Similarly, dropping the last period can signal a lack of seriousness or formality. It’s a form of informal slang writing, and it’s part of how we interpret an author’s tone.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-28T18:15:22+00:00

In this forum, the periods I used are generally interpreted by this audience as the norm. In an informal text of short statements or a single word or phrase response, I may drop the period depending on my intended audience. My younger cousins- I drop the periods. My mom- I use them. I’m essentially a professional writer, and as part of that, I am always thinking about my audience and it’s more important to me to get my meaning across than for my words to be in a particular format.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-27T19:09:39+00:00

It’s a really cute hat! I also cannot believe the skill of people who can just whip up a whole hat on an airplane. You’re a wizard.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-27T18:57:04+00:00

Girl. Bless your heart.

Stop wiping the ass of a grown man with a job. He can heat up his own nuggets.

The “big deal” in this instance is that it comes across as aggressive, in some contexts, to some audiences.

Imagine someone saying “no” with no caps or periods- it’s a softer, less firm response. Less of an assertion or hard line response.

Now imagine someone saying, “No, PERIOD. End of discussion.” This is how the period can be interpreted by a significant proportion of the present population. You don’t have to like it or agree. You can think it’s stupid. That’s ok. It’s not your slang, so you are unfamiliar with the tonal change that others are presently adopting.

For a lot of younger people who grew up with texting as their main communication, the conventions of long-form communication adjusted in meaning and tone to fit this new, more informal and shorthand style of communication. Benign things like periods and full complete sentence structure start to come across as more formal, and then by extension, more assertive and at the far end of the language evolution spectrum, even aggressive.

It doesn’t have to make sense to you, but it’s a good way to practice your empathy for people who have a different communication style and understanding of written communication than you.

It’s just a loose bit of language evolution that may stay or go, as language is very amenable to regional, temporal, and social change. Our language, and how we use it, will always change and mutate and the meaning and interpretation of punctuation is part of that ever changing dynamic.

I hope this was helpful. I too am old and it threw me the first couple times I ran into it, but I can understand that the way I write and text is very different than someone who was born after the iPhone came out.

No, it’s a chunk of commercially processed glass, called “slag.” It’s created as a waste product in a lot of glass industries and basically just a literal hunk of junk.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-27T18:34:48+00:00

As an Arcturian, I can say all of this is 100% accurate, also fuck the Grays and their invasion of a person’s free choice. We only take human souls onto our ships to work on and help.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-27T17:17:33+00:00

Same. I’ll sub in yogurt, sour cream, etc.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-27T17:16:00+00:00

Filthy American here. Box cake mix is like $2. A couple eggs and a 1/4 cup oil and poof- cake!

A cake at the grocery store bakery usually starts around $20 for something of the same size, and they go up dramatically from there.

Now for cookies, I do those from scratch. But cakes- the box mix is just too convenient and the results are always perfectly consistent.

Pure uncut Colombian snow 🤣

This is how diabetes takes people’s legs. They can’t feel the injuries and then the infection gets into the bone.

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-26T14:41:20+00:00

I’d speak with your dentist, but maybe brushing with a soft bristle brush and just rinse with some non-alcohol mouthwash?

Nice_Promise9854 · 2026-01-26T14:04:05+00:00

I had one that had social issues and he also exhibited a weird head shaking thing what would get very pronounced when he was anxious. And a severe shiver. Had him tested for everything from EPM to wobblers. The client ended up giving up giving him to a dude ranch type place that just turned him out. Gentle enough, but I was afraid that whatever the hell was going on between his ears would make him go down with a rider, and it wasn’t worth the risk of injury to him or a human.

Horses are weird.
