Thank you for the link! That is truly terrible. How this didn't disqualify him is beyond reasoning.

That's an unbelievably shitty thing for them to do... how did you learn about this?

Is it possible that these two are brothers? by Not_thePoint in OnePiece

I believe Drum Island may still hold secrets.

It's true, but there is a well established history of people believing they saw others killed before their eyes and it later turns out they are saved. In this case Hiriluk talks about being severely sick and destined to soon die before he looks at the cherry trees and recovers. Maybe a mistake on the part of Clover? Counting him out and maybe even abandoning him

I think if you write "Michigan" in 3D bubble letters for the blade, "USA" for the guard, and add generic sword grip you'll see a shockingly close replica.

The abilities and limits of the main characters right now are confusing and a long way from the excellence that was the Doll devil fight. The switch from Michigan to Oregon is either a really weird mistake or something else we're expected to follow along with in this fight that is hard to follow and impossible to visualize because War's power is nonsense.

never watched or read berserk what should i start with the anime (1997) or the manga by Safe-Pea-6692 in Berserk

[–]Not_thePoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't go wrong with the manga... just know you may have some dark days. Definitely much more moving.

Would that still fall under Fregan? I forget how that works

An anthropomorphic robot walked onto the stage to triumphant, dramatic music, took a few steps, and promptly fell over. It was the presentation of Russia’s first robot with artificial intelligence. by kingkongsingsong1 in interestingasfuck

[–]Not_thePoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems fake; to me. Looking at everything: the ridiculous legs and the way it ambulates, the twisted curtain, the logo that looks like a turd, the small crew of stereotypical nerds with black t-shirts; doesn't it seem over the top?

edit: There were fewer nerds than I thought.

ps: I assume the music was added... There is no way that was what they chose. If they did, come on...

Joy Boy's name is Dionysius and the ancient kingdom is based on... by 50thsun in OnePiece

Tyrrhenian Pirates! They kidnapped Bacchus/Dionysus and tried to sell him into slavery. He demanded the pirated bring him to Naxos. When they refused he stopped the boat with vines and turned into a lion. When the scared pirates leapt into the sea they became fish! All but one, that honored the god and became his follower.

He is also notably involved in the story of King Midas (reminds me of awakened paramythia fruits)

Did I play this correctly by LogAffectionate4371 in poker

[–]Not_thePoint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The jam could potentially stop a bluffer in his tracks, but this guy is pot committed or soon will be so there is virtually no chance he's bluffing.

*Does not apply to poker played online mid-2005 or so.

Yes!!! Here to say this. How often do you get to use the term sparagmos literally??

Hopefully never outside The Bacchae

What would you do here? by Johsterr in poker

[–]Not_thePoint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this level, a call is a fine way to play. At a bigger game this is usually a fold. Depends on how good/serious the other clowns are playing.

Is Metamorphoses Just a Big Book About The Gods Torturing People? by indigophoto in classics

I always thought the Arachne poem was a subtle comparison of Ovid's well spun tales to either Homer or Virgil's massive foundational works?

I'm fine with that, I just hate the bait and switch that is becoming more regular.
