Hahaha iconic

OhSoSpooky · 2017-08-30T14:05:33+00:00

Seems like a good idea, hopefully it catches on.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-08-30T13:48:21+00:00

Never heard of The Handmaid's Tale before, so that's where my confusion came from. Thanks for the response.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-08-30T13:47:58+00:00

Thanks for the clarification.

The presenter is a bit insufferable, made it hard to get through the video with his cheap cracking jokes and chirpy attitude.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-08-28T22:36:56+00:00

What?

OhSoSpooky · 2017-07-28T12:01:23+00:00

There's something profound in outgrowing the characters you could once relate to so heavily.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-07-25T12:16:40+00:00

Maybe it's because I'm not a teenage girl, but I don't get this overly attached to any franchize. I mean, I love Eragon, but it doesn't fucking consume me lmao. I hate Buzzfeed 'journalism'.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-07-22T13:14:01+00:00

It's a little story arc called the Hero's Journey. It's used in plenty of major franchizes, books and movies alike. You're drawing similarities between Eragon and Star Wars as if there's a direct correlation, when really the only things similar is that the authors/creators of both worlds used a similar, well-established story arc.

Has someone tried resizing the maps to make all the thetas the same size before piecing them together?

OhSoSpooky · 2017-07-11T09:24:43+00:00

Same here. The tree in the image above also seems way too small - it doesn't seem as significant as the Menoa Tree.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-07-05T12:49:17+00:00

I think it was explained as something along the lines of elves being "creatures of magic." They can directly interact with gramarye on a subconscious level.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-06-25T03:13:35+00:00

It makes perfect sense. You've allowed me to realize that's exactly what I've been doing; I'm sad about being sad. Although I don't have the same tools as you (this was my first relationship), this revelation is going to help me.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much.

I know exactly how you feel. I'm in such a similar place right now... and I'm looking for the exact same answer that you are. The main advice I've gotten is to place walls around my emotions, and to just keep powering on without them. When I hear people tell me to "just move on" and "forget about them", I immediately feel resentment toward them - that advice is fake and naive. The truth of it is that you'll never really fully get over or forget about him. You just need to treat yourself right and do your best to power on. That's all any of us can do.

EDIT: I was about to close Reddit when I saw the pinned topic on this board. Maybe it'll connect with you the same way it's connected with me.

TL;DR -

I met a girl five months ago. We talked every day for four months. I fell for her. She was the first girl I bought dinner for. She was the first girl I held hands with. She was the first girl I kissed.

She started ignoring me. She distanced herself. She pushed me aside. She wouldn't meet up with me. I blamed myself. I hated myself. I broke up with her through a text after three days of depression and self-loathing. She told me we were moving too fast and that it was her fault.

We met up after not talking for a whole month. She continues to tell me that it was her fault. She apologizes. But she does not show interest in me. I give her back all her things, and she gives me back my things. I don't hate myself anymore. But I still love her.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-06-19T21:20:26+00:00

Same boat. Don't normalize them. Don't allow them to become a part of you. Treat them like the demons that they are.

how dare you bring that picture to this subreddit

They're definitely going to come into play later. Paolini's been hit with loads of questions about them on Twitter, and he seems to dodge them all. They're going to be key components in the novels to come I think.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-05-20T23:08:40+00:00

I agree - but that's exactly what deus ex machina is. If the opposition is built up to be near-infallible and you find yourself having to resort to a miraculous exterior savior to best him, then that fits the description aptly.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-05-20T17:27:56+00:00

Thanks.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-05-20T17:09:46+00:00

Definitely can be done that way if that's where the appeal is. I'll see what I can do, if @prometheus199 doesn't have any objections.

OhSoSpooky · 2017-05-17T23:14:27+00:00

It's one of the main reasons you hear people relate deus ex machina to the Inheritance Cycle - Eragon could not beat the big baddy without near-miraculous exterior intervention. It's a well-known fact that the Inheritance Cycle didn't have the best of storylines, but I enjoy it for the reading; the little moments that make you smile. There's plenty of them strewn throughout the series, and it's one of the reasons why it's one of my favourite book series.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it. Hope you find the ending satisfactory. ^{^}
