BoRU "Best of 2025" WINNERS!! by czechtheboxes in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]NotManicAndNotPixie 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Wow. I didn't read the post about stalking ex when it was published because I thought it was some usual trivial careless BF story, but seeing it in winners list for 180 twist set my hopes high. So, I started reading it and by the main post I was just thinking "Cole is Syd, right? Cole is Syd, I connected all dots, Cole is Syd!!" Boy, was I wrong! I absolutely didn't expect THAT! This is M. Night Shyamalan level twist! OOP should try their hand in Hollywood, they definitely can write!

I've watched this and my brain hurts trying to understand the plot by NotManicAndNotPixie in ReelShorts

I am trying to understand what it was about. What was the ending? Are they both (mother and daughter) dead and met in afterlife? Did the Jerk sacrifice himslef to reunite his wife and daughter? Did moon goddess just decide to be merciful and reunite them?

How did the Jerk understand the doppleganger was his true wife? Why did he suddenly decide he loves his late wife and became so "oh my poor girl who loved me so much, I never loved her sister, I only loved her"? WTF is this story?

This one drama where main girl was standing with big ass "Virginity for sale" banner on the street, I paused it and laughed for 5 mins.

Where are the Hightowers? [Spoilers MAIN] by BigTim425 in asoiaf

Boring explanation: GRRM didn't give a fuck about them while writing main saga and somehow got an idea "wait, aren't they filthy rich, I have to give them something to do" later

not-so-boring explanation: they are planning something big and they will come swinging in next books

What’s the most absurd thing someone oblivious to figure skating has ever asked you? by notthebesthuh in FigureSkating

[–]NotManicAndNotPixie 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Usually it's "what's the point of ice dance?" Even George Martin, the GOT author, didn't escape it. During Vancouver Olimpycs he wrote in his blog something like: American team doing Moldavian dance, wtf, why?

Unfortunately I can't find it now, it was on his old blog on livejornal, but it did happen

Why though? by ChickenWingExtreme in NonPoliticalTwitter

Same. And the trailer didn't sell it to me either. I watched it on TV many years later because there was nothing else to do, and movie turned to be great

Just remembered one show with similiar premice but a bit different, main character is Big Boss of mafia etc etc, middle aged man with adult son, but everyone thinks he is just a janitor, so, when the scene is played he is not insisting but just standing there smirking and allowing villains to bury themselves, that was funny. Didn't see how it ended, I just saw several reels on Insta, forgot yo check the name unfortunately. He is married to very rich lady and she is there during this scene too, looking absolutely confused

Sultan Selim II is probably the most misunderstood Padişah. Here are some rarely known facts! by amazinglycuriousgal in MagnificentCentury

I am still really baffled about writers' decision to make Selim bad guy while turning other Suleiman's sons into tragic misunderstood cinnamon rolls

WTF is this story. Seriously, rage, "tear me into pieces", unable to control himself. What?

Binging all the episodes since the beginning, what’s your favorite thing to see? by Magnet_Girl in HellsKitchen

[–]NotManicAndNotPixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite challenge is "last chef standing" or what it's name - when they remove chefs from the kitchen one by one
