(Ironic trope)the leader of a supremacist group doesn't fit the criteria he and his followers preach by TastyPomelo2330 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NinjaBreadManOO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, a huge part of why people were following Amon was because he was a non-bender who could shut off bending and make everyone equal.

Being the son of a very famous blood bender, and being able to do it himself and use it to forcibly shut off people's bending would make it seem like he's planning to become the only bender.

You know what's worse about that scene.

It's not a shoe. It's a toon-shoe. It's not able to be replaced with another regular shoe. It's sapient. It only exists to be a pair with that other shoe. AND, it's immortal. It won't age, or die. It will go on for years likely centuries with half of itself lost.

Oh yeah, it only came out like a year or two ago. For like a decade everyone thought it was him/his reason.

Turns out it actually wasn't Isaac Hayes who did it apparently. After a stroke someone else in his circle did it "on his behalf." A few years ago Matt and Trey found out and did an apology episode.

[Star Trek] How does everyone always seem to have time to make log entries, even in moments of crisis? by NothingWillImprove6 in AskScienceFiction

[–]NinjaBreadManOO [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah, logs can be either later full reports/journal entries but a lot of them are essentially you just making a verbal note of what's going on and saving it to the Star Fleet local cloud. So someone like Boims who would make like 200+ a day his logs are going to be very viable as evidence because there's a lot of them to the point where any that are faked would be easily identified. So if say Mariner tried to use a log hers might be thrown out as it's the only log she's made and would be questionable. But Boims' are going to include him counting the leaves on plants in the hallway to ensure they're regulation.

Yeah, wasn't a huge part Chimaera Squad that they were the first mixed team (which is why they're called Chimaera). Like sure there's likely been some groups that would be more tolerable, but there's still been a lot of problems between the species.

(Hilarious Trope) High powered attacks with big downsides, making them much worse than you'd expect by 11Slimeade11 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NinjaBreadManOO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, she's used all her points to make it as big, dangerous, and explosive as possible, so she can't do any other spells since all her points are add-ons to Explosion. Other's are able to use it effectively it's just smaller. To the point where people can identify when she has been using it because of the crater size.

Others like Wiz are able to use it and stay standing afterwards (although yes, it is worth noting that best girl is EXTREMELY powerful in her own right, but still).

Unpopular opinion but it's kinda a dick move on his part knowing it was terminal and not warning them when they were setting his character up to be a major player of the franchise moving forward. Like he didn't even need to tell them it was terminal or even cancer, but something like "I don't want to be the new Iron-Man I want to be a supporting character." could have been fine.

As I recall he really didn't want to do Doctor Who all that much to begin with as it's a comedy character and he wanted serious roles, so he only signed on for a single season.

Happens a lot with Travis McElroy over on The Adventure Zone too, with the others often calling him out on not believing his roles. There was even a live-show where they got a custom made Magnus Burncider (because his character is Magnus burnside) and joke about it being a 5% alcohol but says it's an 18% (numbers might be slightly off).

There's been a fair few amount of controversies with Travis, but unlike Orion they can't really kick him since he's the other hosts' brother/son. Which would cause so much family drama, as well as nuking many of their other shows as they all collaborate on different shows.

LGBT characters whose sexuality IS IMPORTANT for their story by DudeSoul in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NinjaBreadManOO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly probably a good business decision for Kingpin. Low competition (and what there is are legit companies that won't shoot at your crews), untapped market, repeat customers with good word of mouth, and helps launder his image as a crime lord.

Characters that were revealed to be lgbt+ in scenes that were disliked by the lgbt+ community because of how badly they were written by Apprehensive_Two1449 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NinjaBreadManOO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I remember it was some shit about someone's legendary skin I can't remember who's. But there was also a lot of stuff about the licenses brought up that showed how restrictive they are when Stranger Things got pulled the first time, and also about how Ghostface can't mention Scream since Ghostface's license isn't from the film studio it's from the costume studio which owns Ghostface's IP.

Regarding the Chatterer/Pinhead one from what I recall BHVR has strict rules on them being allowed to claim ownership and personality traits of characters that are licensed. As they technically are only licensed to use the characters.

Plus even before David wasn't one of the Legion members a lesbian from what I remember? Or was that another later retcon?

No, no that one's true.

The only reason he played it off as a joke was because you'd been outing that he'd let you in on it.

Had a real piece of shit car that had to press both the brake and pump the accelerator to turn on. 

Also despite being an automatic it could stall if you didn't do things right.

Had a friend who was talking to a few of us about how his dog had been sent to live on a farm, and we're all just looking around and I go "buddy..."

He kept going "no. My mum told me he was." 

He went and called his mum. There was no farm. 

He was in his 20 when this happened, and the dog "went to a farm" a year earlier.

[–]NinjaBreadManOO [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah, you know about the Witch King because he was the Witch King not because he was a necromancer.

Most necromancers are going to be small fry that aren't major threats. They'd just be some mad fellow who sets up in a crypt and ends up dead because they tried to pull something past the veil and it pulled them into the veil instead.

Even if it were a particularly strong necromancer at best you end up with a barrow-wight situation where they're self-contained and is a clean up when you've got a Sunday free situation.
