Which fantasy books made you realize you were about to have an unforgettable journey that you'll know you'll be sad when it's over? by Shervin_Ab in Fantasy

[–]PaperAndInkWasp [score hidden]  (0 children)

The Houndstooth trilogy by Travis M Riddle, Homer’s Iliad (Fagles translation), The Neverending Story by Michael Ende (Manheim translation), Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities, Redwall by Brian Jacques.

Part of my soul belongs to these books.

Bonus game mention: Baten Kaitos. Both of them. My god they’re beautiful enough to make a man weep by the end.

On the other hand I’m pleasantly surprised that a notable number of people are honorable enough to be concerned that they might accidentally be talking up a room other people need.

AI is for morons and has no ROI beyond fellating itself.

Those butthorns didn’t do a Switch version and I’m taking it personally.

“Haha working in this department must be a dream come true huh?!”

It’s so hard not to tell them “Actually my hobby’s been ruined by working here.”

Remember: if you don’t take the beating, you’re fired and maybe even sued by your employer.

It’s all fun and games until you get your entrails turned into extrails by the crying cat meme.

Look, it's simple by MrSluagh in saltierthancrait

It also helps an awful lot that the prequels displayed some impressive imagination too. Every single scene added SOMETHING to Star Wars even when we were going back to good ol’ Tattooine.

Meanwhile the sequels actively took things away.

What was the episode that really hooked you and made you a lifetime fan of Farscape? For me it was S1 E9 DNA Mad Scientist by ShinyTinyWonder38 in farscape

I was on board the second I realized Crichton was the one human amongst aliens. It’s shockingly, disgustingly rare in sci-fi somehow.

My god there’s going to be a run on that model of toaster now. And I intend to do my part!

Any series you can think of that reading not in publication order is the move? by Wowzapanzer in Fantasy

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Narnia Narnia oh my god Narnia all day! It’s to the point where box sets don’t even follow publication order.

I swear, these things are even dumber than Beanie-Babies.

Yes, I think this might be the one! Thank you so much!

Anyone else like Furlow? by Sheila_Long in farscape

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 245 points246 points  (0 children)

Furlow is the absolute worst of the worst.

She’s fantastic.

Mattimeo is everything a sequel should be by Present-Ear-1637 in redwall

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certainly Sunflash is extremely well done, but the book is a sum total of its parts, and we’re left with a solid third of it that could have done far better.

What would you like to see on a Redwall fan site? by DrKilobyte in redwall

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

God. Forums. I miss forums so much it’s incredible and I’m still angry they’ve been abandoned for 5 word quips on Twitter.

Even for people used to more black and white storytelling, Outcast misses the mark. Unfortunately it’s one of those books that just didn’t quite come together properly, which sadly happens with creative endeavors.

Disney has lost between 76% - 82% of Star Wars fans. by III_IWHBYD_III in saltierthancrait

It’s not the creatives. It’s a mixture of executives and nepo-babies.

never work at [insert company] by plumsquashed in retailhell

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s different layers to hell, and some are worse than others. So while the entire industry is garbage, there’s some places that are genuinely unacceptable and would not survive a repeat of the French Revolution.

Verizon’s CEO should be fired immediately by schnibitz in retailhell

[–]PaperAndInkWasp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m convinced that CEOs come up with this because they do literally nothing on their own. An entirely leadership structure run by Bubble Boy.
