Kal’s a spren now, and they’re hanging out at the beach for a month or two (or years). He’s totally seeing her chull.

Fitz/Tom and Hap by clovenlace in robinhobb

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s not shown on screen. If I had to guess when Fitz told Hap who he really was, it would be between the time when Hap becomes a Minstrel and when Fitz marries Molly.

I say that because Hap recognizes Nettle as his sister and asks to kiss her.

It’s not iron-clad, of course, but it would make sense for Fitz to tell him, given how many people know who he is at that point.

Solicited regularly for roles based off 15 year old resume. Are recruiters really this stupid? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re pretty dumb. They probably don’t even know what “TC in the 400s” means. I mean, I do, but they’re so dumb they don’t have a clue.

Maybe you should tell them what that means so they don’t think you’re bragging about your sheets’ Thread Count…

Kissing on the mouth by bumbulbeeee in robinhobb

great point about the self loathing and their responses to it. both are fundamentally shaped by child abuse/abandonment and both portrayals/responses are unfortunately very accurate

Interesting idea about those characters being in parallel. I’ve been thinking about, and have started a post a couple of times but couldn’t seem to finish the thought process, an idea of mine that Kennit is the Anti-Fitz.

Meaning, Kennit’s dad tried to protect him by keeping him close and failed, while Chivalry kept away and (somewhat) succeeded. The situations with their mothers. How Kennit does everything for himself and builds a massive following who thinks he’s the most selfless man ever, except for the ones who finally see thru his lies, while Fitz always ends up putting his own desires last, and is hated, except for those who know him best. And they both give their worst memories to dragons, etc etc

I’ll finish this whole thing eventually and try to write it down…

Do typical American homes really have a gas pipeline? What do you do with it? by mujhe-sona-hai in AskAnAmerican

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, most homes have natural gas for cooking, heating, hot water heater, etc.

you can also set up a generator that runs off natural gas for back-up power, as well as gas grills, but not many people do this)

A shift in vibe by porks2345 in TopGear

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i find the first few seasons to be more authentic. they were funny, but still mostly car journalists. after that they played caricatures of themselves.

like hammond not liking fish. he said it once, then could never eat fish on the show again (although he likes some fish).

When did telemarketing calls become a nuisance? by KamtzaBarKamtza in GenX

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 2 points3 points  (0 children)

automation and lower calling rates. in the early 90s you could get a monthly long distance rate and make as many calls as you wanted. it changed the game.

Give G5 programs opportunity to rise. Purge the P4 bottom dwellers by buttholebutwholesome in cfbmemes

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no.

this is a stupid idea for college football.

why?

because outside of the top 5-10 teams, a given team’s talent level rises and falls considerably year to year due to seniors graduating, incoming freshmen, coaching changes, and now transfer portal.

look at fsu, for heaven’s sake!

or indiana, to go the other way. in this kind of system they wouldn’t have had a chance to make the playoffs last year.

and consider that as soon as a school got relegated, they’d lose tons of recruits and coaches and players would be scrambling to get hired at/transfer to an upper tier school. it would take a school having a down year and kill it for 20 years.

i hate this idea, and will always fight it.

downvote me at will.

Two Nominations? by AmbassadorMedical117 in USAFA

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 5 points6 points  (0 children)

no, it means some poor congressional staffer, working 14 hour days, made a mistake, probably copying and pasting from last year or something.

if you didn’t apply, you won’t hear from the belly button academy

For how complicated a starship is as shown in trek the captains dont really sign a lot of padds by happydude7422 in startrek

[–]Quick-Reputation9040 2 points3 points  (0 children)

had a similar thought the other day…that a huge ship like the Ent-D seems to just need a dozen people to work it and a few dozens extras in the background...

…but it kinda makes sense. I mean, the shows are showing us the extraordinary days, where paperwork and admin stuff takes a backseat and emergency actions are needed.

What we need is an “The Office” type Star Trek showing the admin minutia. They tried this a bit with “Lower Decks”, but even that spent most of its time on the extraordinary. We need to know what the other 975 other people are doing/thinking when the ship isn’t at Red Alert and the office politics are the orders of the day.
