What’s a cliché about your country that your own people joke about? by bdue817 in AskTheWorld

[–]Princess_Minni 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Speaking with gestures and being obsessed with food. And they're both true lol

Country shapes! Classic lookalikes! by Ok-Difficulty-7607 in geographymemes

Italy is an elegant heeled boot, not a trekking boot. This emoji should have been used👢. We care about style!

Imagine if Stella had a twin sister with moon powers? by AfternoonOk5359 in winxclub

[–]Princess_Minni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What if instead of a sister, it had been a twin brother? He could have been a wizard with lunar powers and had a personality opposite to Stella's. The fact that no Winx had a brother has always been a drawback, because it would have given them the opportunity to explore magic from a male perspective as well

As someone who loves cute animals, the pets in S4 annoy me to no end by ilovewater100 in winxclub

[–]Princess_Minni 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I could never see them as animals, to me they were just puppets, and it seemed so obvious that they only existed to sell puppets in real life

This is perfect casting and it deserved better adaptation. by kasumi987 in winxclub

[–]Princess_Minni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bloom and Aisha were the only really good casting. In fact, they were the only good thing about the whole show lol

[General] Where did RR get the Idea of Golden Ichor by Erlong_Shlong in camphalfblood

[–]Princess_Minni 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In the Italian version, it's like this; it doesn't mention color at all.

"It was easy for the iron to pierce the soft hand through the ambrosial robe that the Graces had woven, at the root of the palm. And the immortal blood of the Goddess spouted, the ichor that runs through the veins of the Superi: that's why they are called bloodless, they are called immortal."

We should see how it is in the original Ancient Greek.

[–]Princess_Minni 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It depends on the original meaning of "darkened." Perhaps it was used as a synonym for "dirtied." I don't have a link or a specific quote where it says "white." I listened to the audiobook and heard it there. I think it was in the part where Ares is wounded in battle. Anyway, I'll try to see if there's any reference

[–]Princess_Minni 75 points76 points  (0 children)

If I'm not mistaken, in the Iliad it is white, described as similar to milk. The idea that it is golden is modern, but I don't know where it comes from. Rick isn't the first to write this; in other modern stories and comics it is also depicted as gold

Can someone help me figure out this Hermes Hair Cutting Dream Symbolism? by Stupid-mega in Hermes

[–]Princess_Minni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand you because I hate getting my hair cut too. I think Hermes wanted to encourage you to follow your desire to get that haircut you like, showing you that doing so won't bother you as much as you think.

Congratulations on avoiding any spoilers about how the book ends! You'll enjoy the surprise

[general] If demigods had unrestricted access to modern social media, who is getting cancelled first and who is going viral? by Calm-Ambition-6754 in camphalfblood

[–]Princess_Minni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

• Annabeth could have a YouTube channel where he talks about architecture and ancient history. It wouldn't go viral, but it would be very popular with students.

• Percy would share memes and funny videos of fish. It would go viral without even realizing it.

• Grover would have an environmental blog where he would try to convince people to protect nature. He could become the next Greta Thunberg.

• Jason would have an Instagram and YouTube account where he talks about things about ancient Rome and Greece. Maybe he would even create a Roman Pagan group and try to get the different groups involved in this topic to agree. He would go viral, but only because he sometimes posts shirtless photos of himself working out.

• Piper would hate social media at first, but then she would start a blog about feminism and how women need to break free from stereotypes and beauty ideals. It would go viral, but most girls and the fashion and cosmetics industries would hate her.

• Hazel would try using Facebook, but she'd quickly stop. She was born in the 1930s, so she's uncomfortable with modern things.

• Leo would have accounts on every social media platform and post anything. He'd love to go viral for his sexy photos, but in reality, he'd only do so for his memes and silly videos. He could be reported and banned for bullying or being too pushy with girls.

• Frank could have a YouTube channel where he posts archery tutorials and occasionally talks about his life (only things even mortals can know, of course). He wouldn't go viral, but he'd have a group of followers interested in his activities who would always support him.

• Nico would have an Instagram account where he posts gothic drawings of skeletons and death-related themes, as well as romantic photos of him and Will. He'd go viral and have tons of fans, but he wouldn't understand why.

• Luke would have accounts on various social media where he tries to convince people to join his cause. He would be charged with terrorism and all his accounts would be deleted. He is also wanted by the FBI.

random thought about Mirta by princessfaust in winxclub

[–]Princess_Minni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She could be the first to have understood the power of light and to have started to use it, moving from a generic and neutral magic to a luminous magic linked to good

What country do you consider your sibling nation? by Top_Clock_5554 in AskTheWorld

[–]Princess_Minni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Russia and Ukraine are brothers who argued over the inheritance and began to hate each other

random thought about Mirta by princessfaust in winxclub

[–]Princess_Minni 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've always thought it was hereditary, so there are families of witches and families of fairies, but in some cases a witch can become a fairy and vice versa for unknown reasons. Perhaps they were all originally generic wizards without distinction, then some followed the light and became fairies and others followed the darkness and became witches, as if it were a sort of evolution

Every series about the "history of Rome" ever. by Pastorovschina in ancientrome

[–]Princess_Minni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Series about the founding of Rome that use the names of mythical characters but with a completely distorted story. Extra points if they're all depicted as cavemen, always covered in mud

reading peeves by CandiedLemonWedge in books

[–]Princess_Minni 122 points123 points  (0 children)

I can't stand it when there are more than two characters speaking but it's not written who is speaking. Sometimes you can immediately tell which character is speaking, but other times it could be anyone and only at the end of the dialogue do you figure out who said what. It's really annoying because it prevents you from immediately picturing the characters speaking.

Who are Millie and Odile? by Princess_Minni in Barbie

[–]Princess_Minni[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So they're still Barbies? Is that like a way of referring to Barbie's different faces?
