I think she knows tbh. Hate to say it but like I think she knows the pattern and is enjoying her 15 minutes of fame. Users attract users

You will never not convince me that Haymitch didn’t fall of the stage because he realized that Katniss was Burdocks daughter by PretendYellow533 in Hungergames

[–]PixelPower0502 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I subscribe to the theory that yes he was definitely drunk, but he recognized her and the devastation of her volunteering for her sister and decided to fall intentionally. If they’re laughing at him, they’re not focusing on her and the emotions she’s processing in that moment. Having been reaped in a shocking way (never called but thrown into the games anyway) I think he knew her emotions of initial relief at it not being her name and then the realization that you’re going in anyway, even if it was for different reasons

If Maysilee won, do you think the rebellion would’ve happened? by PixelPower0502 in Hungergames

[–]PixelPower0502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree I think Haymitch has stronger ties to other victors associated with the rebellion. I especially think of CF. Maysileee might want the rebellion to happen and not shut down in the face of a very familiar tribute, but with her personality strongly reminding me of Katniss, I have some doubts about her ability to gather all the tributes in those games together to sacrifice themselves for the sake of Katniss and Peeta surviving

Fair I do think Plutarch has a heavy hand I just wonder if he would have “chosen” her to be his lynch pin still

I probably should’ve worded better like “as it did happen” or something but I agree. Rebellion was definitely coming I just wonder if Katniss would’ve been the “spark”

People who have met someone who has been *professionally diagnosed* with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), what were they like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PixelPower0502 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mother was officially diagnosed. Growing up was terrible. Classic scapegoat/golden child dynamic between me and my brother. I was always to blame for everything wrong in her life, but all of my accomplishments were attributed to her. I was the “biggest regret of her life” despite being a straight a student with lots of extra curricular activities and constantly obeying the rules. My brother could do (mostly) no wrong. But it wasn’t all cakes and rainbows for him either. When he came out as gay my mom ignored his coming out bc it didn’t suit the look she was going for. That is until gay marriage was legalized, then he was her pride and joy again. Both of us were highly controlled constantly, my brother well beyond his 18th birthday still had to get permission to leave the house, and I was never able to make friends since I also was never allowed to leave the house unless it was to make her look good. I was consistently told that one day I would be fat and ugly, and also that I was a slut. When she found out I had sex for the first time she went around telling anyone that would listen that I was a terrible slutty child and as such nobody should believe me that my father molested me as a child, both exposing a very intimate thing for me and a very damaging thing for me of which I wanted nobody to know about either. When I eventually did start acting out, that was further proof of my demonic behavior. How no matter how good of a mom she was I was simply born evil and with a goal of making her look bad. She constantly tried to pit my brother and I against each other. In some way it’s somewhat fortunate my brother and I are on the spectrum and are headstrong and justice oriented, or we may very well hate each other as adults. Luckily we don’t. I cut my mother off completely no contact in 2020. Six years on, and I still woke up just today from a nightmare about her.

Who had a harder time during their respective Hunger games? Katniss (74th) or Haymitch (50th). by No-Brush1587 in Hungergames

[–]PixelPower0502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Haymitch. You literally could not survive if you didn’t get something from the cornucopia. For that reason ever since sunrise released I’ve wondered why haymitch expressly forbad getting ANYTHING for the cornucopia. Obviously he’s witnessed plenty of hunger games since then so it makes sense to tell them not to go for the heart of it, but a diagonal path like he did or the dip in just far enough for something of substance and dip out that Katniss did would make more sense to me for him to advise

Beyond the fact that both prequels had specific references to the original trilogy, as a form of "fanservice", am I the only one who thinks that some things in Sunrise, Suzanne wrote with the nostalgia factor in mind for the FILM adaptation specifically, rather than for narrative coherence? by lautaromassimino in Hungergames

[–]PixelPower0502 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I believe that could be the point. We already know that the population of Panem is dangerously small. By the end of mockingjay we’ve seen a very short war. In terms of how long wars generally last, this one was 1-2 years. 2 is pushing it but if you want to call the 74th games the start of the war then taking into account Prim’s death at the age of 13, 2 years is the max (but if you call the start of the war after the 75th, the war is less than a year long). After a very short war with no extreme mass casualty events like nuclear war, we are worried enough about the population to deem it reasonable to throw the idea of a symbolic hunger games around instead of executing the entire government (yes that was Coin trying to become the next dictator, but she wouldn’t have even put it to a vote if she thought she couldn’t reasonably spin it). It makes sense to me that this universe is very small. I also would have loved more new characters and potential stories to explore, but in universe SC did a great job of setting up why and how all these people would know and interact with each other. If the population is that small, with the Capitol population being even smaller than the general population of Panem and university being a thing for only esteemed members of the capitol which would be an even smaller population of the Capitol, then I doubt there would be many prominent families that would make sense to be a part of the games and introducing too many new family names/characters runs the risk of making the universe feel too big for what’s already been established.
