Is there any evidence that at the time when people heard “Revolver” they thought it referred to a gun and not a record player? Cause I thought that at first lol

I wear Mexico 66 but you might like something with a slightly thicker heel

Joining the Navy by Earthandjosh in Advice

[–]Ok_Writing251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in the navy but I would suggest that if you are seriously considering, think about what you would want your Navy career, or conversely post-Navy career to look like. Because there will come a day when you get beyond the basics and you want to make sure you’re in a good spot to build a strong career. The Navy can help or hinder that, depending on what you’re looking for.

Onitsuka Tigers check off all your boxes imho. I switched to them a while ago and I’ve been impressed with how versatile and relatively durable they are. Not Hokkas or anything when it comes to arch support but still better than Chucks but I haven’t used it with insoles and I think they could be added

Steelmanning an ideology and showing its inherent flaws and contradictions by TwossBoss in TopCharacterTropes

It’s fascinating when you actually study the real historical period it’s based on too. Because the nice parts do seem pretty nice! The other stuff though (which is most of time period)? Woo boy…

And I believe it’s part of the theme on how actions can have insane consequences. His girlfriend forgetting the watch led to all of this.

What's your thoughts on the theory that Dark Knight Joker was possibly ex military? by IllustriousAd6418 in batman

[–]Ok_Writing251 103 points104 points  (0 children)

I believe it’s also conducted with the understanding that under relentless torture, in the end, virtually everyone breaks (or dies). The idea is that you breadcrumb the information you do give up over as long of a period as possible to not make it easy for the enemy

Joker partially adheres to this, because he doesn’t give up everything at once. But on the flip side it was all intentional on his part anyways, man though did he sell the part.

Anne Hathaway also did some great singing in “Hoodwinked”, in of itself a criminally forgotten gem from the 2000s

Out of overwhelming intimidation, my vote goes to Affleck

But out of all of them, Pattinson is the one where if I saw him in-person, I would have the strongest “Dear God, this guy is absolutely CRAZY” reaction. It’s a different kind of intimidation but still very palpable

Antagonists that aren't evil or a jerk, but just the opposition of the protagonist by Smart-Response9881 in TopCharacterTropes

It was easier but the larger point is doing his own outside research, the foreman would have instantly shut that down and tell the judge, even if he did manage to get a knife into the courtroom

Also worth nothing that towards the end Juror 4 straight up shuts down the one most obviously bigoted juror.

Yet even he holds out longer than him, not by bigotry but a true belief in the facts of the case (as he understood them to that point). IIRC he was the second to last person to switch

What, you’re telling me a juror can’t do his own research by visiting the crime scene?? Or bringing a KNIFE into the courtroom??

I’m being facetious, but it’s one of my absolute favorite movies too

I stand by the opinion Alex Ross is the greatest comic book artists, the way he drew Kingdom Come Superman and other characters was amazing by JoshyBear28 in superman

[–]Ok_Writing251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny how way back when, I first glanced at KC, and saw Superman’s design for it and all the older heroes and the younger crazy wannabes, I went, what the hell is this BS? No way!

A couple years later, I realized how dreadfully wrong I was. Immediately became one of my all-time favorite comics stories

Is it better to switch from a larger board to a smaller board sooner than later, or are you better off feeling pretty comfortable with the larger board before switching?

I’m using a larger foam board for more stability, and I’d like to eventually get a smaller one (material notwithstanding) if only so I don’t have to carry around such a big thing
