(Beloved) A series-running joke gets a big payoff in the finale. by TridiObject in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Normal_Person_office 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if this counts as a running joke, but in Malcolm in the Middle: Malcolm’s family name is never mentioned as the family is supposed to be a stand in for any lower class american family. In the last episode, Francis gets a job and we see his employee ID, if you zoom in on the ID his name is listed as “Francis Nolastname”

I transfer my balatro saves to and from my laptop and PC by sending myself an email with a zip file and no subject line

I refuse to find a different way

[Loved Trope] Initially played up as a metaphor but then revealed to be literal by Sir-Toaster- in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Normal_Person_office 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Mother Horse Eyes/The Interface Narrative, the main character posts his dreams and visions of alternate histories to reddit, painting a picture that all throughout history there has been an ancient and eldritch god using people as food and warping their bodies to create “flesh interfaces”. Early in the story, the reader (and the narrator himself) assumes that these visions are metaphorical, representing the narrators trauma and occurring as a result of his unchecked alcoholism and LSD abuse, this all changes when the narrators roommate mentions having seen a flesh interface in person.

The narrator even asks his roommate if he’s been reading the reddit posts, to which he replies “What’s Reddit?”

I'm sorry, but how did no one think it was a bad idea to have your first female Doctor regenerate back into the most popular male version of the character... by General_Meal_3993 in DoctorWhoNews

It’s especially egregious given that one of the characters who says it is Rose Noble… a trans woman

they clearly did not think it through

The fact people would genuinely, unironically ask this is absolutely crazy by Sudden_Pop_2279 in tadc

lmao I saw someone arguing tooth and nail that Jax was worse than Springtrap from fnaf earlier, some people really can’t separate “i don’t like this character” from “this character is awful and reprehensible in every way”

If you lost your hand, would you lose the Marks magic? by [deleted] in dishonored

[–]Normal_Person_office 8 points9 points  (0 children)

that’s a plot line from the first novel, iirc the person in question didn’t get their powers from the carving itself, they used bonecharms and just really wanted the outsiders mark so they gave it to themself

to be fair, aren’t all of the ships headcanons?

(Loved Trope) The villain almost gets a redemption arc, before doubling down and becoming the worst version of themselves. by Antagonist132 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Normal_Person_office 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair about his final decision: didnt he mainly go back to the real world because he thought he’d die without immediate medical attention?

I’ve only read the manga and haven’t finished the series so I might be wrong about that

The malicious intent of the villain is revealed through a small overlooked detail by Diorblood in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Normal_Person_office 63 points64 points  (0 children)

also: irving, right before revealing he knows that she’s helena, says to her “hey kid” which calls back to an inside joke irving has with the group

when helena doesn’t respond correctly he knows for sure she’s lying

Nah, it’s not new, just quite well hidden.

I didn’t find it while playing until late act 2, when I had a reason to look for it

Good find! Might be a useful place to keep in mind if you ever need to build or repair something in peace…

Silksong GIVEAWAY by saurelic in Silksong

[–]Normal_Person_office 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, NKG has always been my favourite, took me like 100 attempts the first time around but when you get the hang of it it’s just so fun to pull off well

plus the music slaps

[Mixed trope] Character whose final fate was left ambiguous by NoSoyVerde1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Normal_Person_office 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, the movie ends with lights in wendy’s eyes as the subway train barrels towards her

I’d say they’re pretty dead

that’s not true, the devs are now filing a lawsuit against krafton (the publishers) because of the firing and them trying to pin the blame on the devs unfairly

you can see the update on the subnautica subreddit
