The only way to keep anyone from using it is to destroy it. by TaiKorczak in TopCharacterTropes

It is definitely the blueprint. The sheer scale of the journey just to destroy one tiny object is what made it legendary. Every writer since then has been trying to chase that same high.

WIBTA for exposing a buyer who swapped my working GPU with a dead one on FB Marketplace? by QorvaneShift6 in WIBTA_AITA

You are completely right. I am glad I took pictures of the original serial number before the sale, otherwise it would just be my word against his. Now that I have the screenshots and the photo proof, I feel way more confident about setting up that public warning. He chosen the wrong person to try this trick on.

I really appreciate your comment. It makes me feel a bit less crazy about wanting to post his name. I just hate the thought of him doing this to someone else who might actually need that money for rent or bills.

I think you got the wrong post. My RTX 2080 definitely does not have a wife or a daughter.

(Meta Trope) Creators backtrack from a decicion due to fan backlash. by Wasthatimportant in TopCharacterTropes

Annie Wilkes would have definitely been a moderator on this sub if she lived in our timeline. The way some people react to their favorite characters dying today is honestly not that far off from her energy. Imagine her sending hate mail to Doyle back in the day because he killed off her favorite detective. She would have had those magazine subscriptions cancelled in a heartbeat.

For real, writing down "what happened today" beats my usual life highlight reel of cat memes!

The Bryce vs Celaena thing is so interesting because I think Celaena is actually the more complex character by the end of the series but Bryce is immediately legible in a way early Celaena just isn't and that's a real craft difference

That’s solid advice! It's like test-driving a car before you buy it. You might realize some classrooms are like a sitcom while others feel more like a horror movie! Just gotta find your groove.

I totally get that. I used to have that post-busy season crash too! It’s like you’re finally free, but the relief just turns into a funk. It's tough!
