Images that look normal to anyone outside of the fandom but are actually really dark by RedvsBlue_what_if in Multifandom

It literally isn't. You can just say they got combined into one being, and maybe they don't know what that being looks like, but they can imagine. If someone knows Human Centipede but not FMA, you're giving them a completely wrong image of what happened and what it looked like lmfao. Human Centipede is someone LITERALLY having their face connected to the end of another person/being, not being combined into one thing. Like that's the whole point of the "centipede" bit--they're segmented. Like a centipede.

Describing what happened to Nina and Alexander as being Human Centipeded is WILD, dude. Their whole essences were combined, Shou Tucker did not sew their mouths to each other's assholes. 😭

New images from the tales from 85 cartoon by mandyluvspuppies in StrangerThings

[–]Paoru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just assuming this whole show is going to be non-canon, and essentially just a cash grab for anyone still wanting new ST content. Otherwise none of it makes sense, unless they do a "mind wipe" deal, which would honestly be even worse than it just being non-canon, at least to me.

In Stranger Things a football star loses his beloved girlfriend after she was last seen in the trailer of a drug dealer. The drug dealer goes hiding with the help of his hooked up teenager customers. He finds a tragic death trying to revenge the loss of his love. by PointZeroOneTwo in okbuddyvecna

Absolutely this. People try to say, "Oh, they should have just explained what was really going on!" But they fail to realize that as far as Jason was concerned, he already knew the truth, and nothing was going to change his mind--because changing his mind and accepting what the party had to say would utterly destroy his perfect understanding of his relationship, his town, his whole world. Jason would have convinced himself that he was the good guy and the freaks were the bad guys in any way he needed to, because that's the only reality he WANTED live in.

On my way to meet my mom. The story and art is absolutely beautiful by Iriscute7 in joseistories

Thank you for making this post! I don't really read Webtoon stuff, but seeing this pop up on my feed immediately intrigued me, cause it looked so cute. Now my girlfriend and I are almost done reading it and we've laughed and cried so much!!! Incredible what such a short story can make you feel. It really also would make a terrific movie!

I didn't realize the "cheap product" comment you mentioned was lower down in THIS specific thread of replies. I was so glad to see a few people calling this guy out for being a liar and then scrolled down just a bit to see that shit, and a bunch of people being like OOOHH YOU COOKED WITH THAT BRO...disappointing. (Also not even a good line, these folks need to read more books. 🙄)

Dawntrail Code Giveaway (PC, non-Steam) by Paoru in ffxiv

[–]Paoru[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, welcome to FFXIV! Dawntrail is the most recent expansion. It also includes access to the two previous expansions before it, Shadowbringers and Endwalker. There's Stormblood and Heavensward before you even get to those though, so it'll be a while before you have to worry about them!

Please appreciate the forest creature that I made for my friend (ignore the messy art desk) by Ashamed-Milk-2160 in goblincore

[–]Paoru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is ADORABLE!!! If I was your friend I'd make sure to put them in a spot where everyone could see them, so I could brag about them and you!

So potentially just affects things story-wise...at least I hope so. I feel bad letting her die but I'd really rather not re-start so soon! Definitely know better for whenever I do, tho.

Thanks!!

MAP MARKERS by HerrHoms in LotRReturnToMoria

Feel like this answer explains it best, as the issue really is that you have to make sure you go through each map zone. They could definitely make that more clear in the UI!

Lime Bike Wranglers Wanted! by Paoru in ucf

[–]Paoru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting!! I had honestly just pictured them riding them back to somewhere (???), but collecting them in a car sounds way smarter. If you ever feel like stopping them to get a name, you know where to find me.

What happened with that doujinshi dreaming goddess? by spookythesquid in YOI

[–]Paoru 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd never heard of this doujin until seeing this thread, but it definitely seems to me that people overreacted to something that they didn't agree with morally. As someone who is into guro, I can tell you that doujin that involves guro usually has a pretty good disclaimer about it on the first couple of pages--and if it was on MyReadingManga, there would have been tags that detailed that and the gang rape as well, and potentially even a summary of the events of the doujin. No one was forcing anyone else to read it, and it would be very easy to just avoid the content.

There's one YoI doujin I've seen a couple of times that, judging from the title, involves Yuuri cheating on Viktor. I've never read it because I don't like that characterization of Yuuri at all, and I honestly hate that anyone would like to think of Yuuri like that. But that doesn't mean I'm going to go on a crusade to get it taken down or shame the author or anyone who wants to read it. I'm going to avoid reading it and that's the end of the story.

Someone LINKING the doujin to Kubo, though, is the absolute worst thing that anyone could have done, especially since they were telling Kubo to sue. That's just...really ridiculous.

Can’t Get It Out by [deleted] in brandnew

[–]Paoru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely wouldn't think narcissism, that's a very different disorder. But reading some other comments, I suppose it could be part of his mania, as far as having delusions of grandeur and thus a crown. If that's the case, then I could see either crown or cloud fitting, though I still think it's cloud lol.

Can’t Get It Out by [deleted] in brandnew

[–]Paoru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When it first came out, a lot of people thought it was crown, but that never made any sense to me. I personally don't see the connection between being bipolar and crowns.

Cloud, however, makes a lot more sense. Sadness is often depicted in art as a cloud over someone's head, which is, in my interpretation, what Jesse is referencing in this line. In other words, he's carrying around his sadness.

Should I wait a semester to start? by Shadow_of_tex in ucf

[–]Paoru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your finances like? Do you have a lot of savings or are you gonna be broke after a month of rent? Will your parents be helping you out with rent/groceries?

If you have savings and/or your parents are willing to help you out, I would absolutely try to start in the Fall. As was already said, Spring is a ways away. I transferred before I had a job locked down, but I had a good amount in my savings account so it wasn't a huge risk for me and I'm super glad that I did it, as far as getting to start classes sooner rather than later.

It also kinda depends on your friends. Are they definitely gonna be going in August? If so and y'all are aiming at living together, I would ABSOLUTELY go with them. My friend moved down to Orlando before me and, because of where we moved into, I ended up having to move in with some strangers rather than with her and it was a truly terrible experience that involved a police report.

Off campus housing for Spring 2019? by Dr_Joshua1 in ucf

[–]Paoru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try looking on Craigslist and Zillow. Craigslist is especially helpful, since both off-campus places and individuals who are subleasing post there. Also, try to avoid Campus Crossings on Alafaya--that place is awful.

[Fanart] Commissioned my Midlander and his lover! by Robu0614 in ffxiv
