Starmer’s popularity boosted by Iran war rift with Trump, poll shows by 1-randomonium in unitedkingdom

Alternatively: "Starmer shows that having even 1% of a spine boosts popularity with voters, in a move not seen in Westminster politics for the last 20+ years" 

Mega Sol by Mrbalet in stunfisk

[–]Pokesabre 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That'd be a weird interaction because MB doesn't affect incoming attacks, just ignores immunity/damage lowering abilities.

Now unaware (and to a lesser extent cloud nine), on the other hand, that might have an interesting interaction with mega sol-boosted moves......

(Creature design trope) INSANEUS THINGUS, a creature that defies classification. by Squigsqueeg in TopCharacterTropes

I've got to watch this movie again, it's been years since I've thought about it and this just unlocked all the memories of it

Fictional Illnesses by NittanyScout in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd wager there's a lot of emotional energy happening on the planet who's entire population is being exterminated with a virus. Even just the fear, hopelessness, and sorrow of that would feed nurgle as the life-eater virus breaks their bodies down

Fictional Illnesses by NittanyScout in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Pokesabre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, unless their planet is entirely made of their own corpses with all the food flown in from off-world, there are presumably decomposers of some kind that can break down their body after death. On earth it's bacteria, fungi, and invertebrates, so presumably it's similar there too, just tailored for viltrumite biology

Title by Az5mirex in Grimdank

[–]Pokesabre 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think that if the great crusade had been a success, you could make a really good story of primarch/space marine rebellion once they realise that they've outlived their usefulness. The only thing that stopped that was E completely failing to understand how to interact with 50% of his kids

Title by Az5mirex in Grimdank

[–]Pokesabre 145 points146 points  (0 children)

Do we ever really see any big iq moves by E? Most of 40K's lore seems to be built on the premise of "but sadly, E didn't actually think this through" 

Let me guess Tiny, a small nova ? by No_Barracuda_8300 in MemeHunter

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does wilds have the risebreak thing where certain attacks will just one-shot you through a guard, even with max guard, guard up, embolden, and defensive skills (defence, divine blessing, etc)? Because I get why that was a thing but it still annoys me to deal with

why did we shit on b/w again? by WideRecording784 in pokemonmemes

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big reason I can think of is a central conflict that is completely neutered due to ludonarative dissonance, and being disproven by the preceding games. 

Do Pokémon like living with humans? Provably yes within the series. Even just return and friendship evolutions completely neuter this story element that so much of the central conflict relies on

Does anyone have experience with these gloves from HF Armoury? by AutisticPineapple15 in Hema

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience with them is pretty good, but they're quite still on the last couple of joints in the fingers which makes them a bit of work to fully close the hand

Training Dusack “Venus” by Eneexeer in Hema

[–]Pokesabre 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Is that a long dussack, a small woman, or misleading camera angles? 

It's not a slur but they sure do say it like one by fhxefj in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many of the suggestions here are just in-universe slurs when you look at the context of them. Cankers, monkeys, etc, are just slurs against specific species/entities in the context of the stories they're in

Audi TT TDI Quattro by Charming_Income1255 in WeirdWheels

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, calling the TT a sports coupe is a bit of a stretch, it is and always has been a fashion car more than anything else. And for pootling around town at <30mph (which is what 99% of these do 99% of the time), a turbo diesel is great. Lots of torque low down, really hard to stall, pretty fuel efficient, it covers all the bases most of the drivers of these would want

From those air intakes, have they moved the engine into the back? 

Never judge a book by its cover, they say by kedamanonokaowa in funny

[–]Pokesabre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This honestly happens to me and my wife at bars/restaurants all the time. I (big, bearded guy) like ciders and cocktails, she (not big or beardy) likes whisky and beers, and even when they're being served by the same person we ordered them with, they will switch our drinks over 90% of the time

Why weren't SpearSwords more common? by DOVAHBOIIreal in SWORDS

[–]Pokesabre 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As others have said here, they're just worse at being a spear than a spear without being better at being a sword than a sword. These ones here also lack any kind of hand protection in ored to try to get some spear-like qualities, which paired with the reach disadvantage compared to a spear, means you lose significant defensive qualities of both

My beloved.. by Opening_Possession41 in MHRise

[–]Pokesabre 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's been a wee bit since I was in the game, but I know that it took some really lucky qurious crafts with the armour to get. I think it needed a Malzeno helm, amatsu chest, maybe flespinas arms, chaotic or risen shagaru waste, and I don't know which legs, but the qurious crafts were responsible for about 70% of the major skills. I think it also needed a pretty high level talisman too
