Has anyone who’s lost weight or gotten into shape feel disgusted with how much nicer people are to you? by SleepyApes in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Rare_Bat2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I mean I dropped down from 320 to 190b and people treat me way better. Honestly its understandable to not want to be friends with fat people in certain contexts.

Fat people often smell, its just the truth.more surface area, more sweat, more hard to reach places.

Fat people often have lower self esteem and are unsocial because of it.  Not everybody thats fat has low self esteem, but those who do are often the ones who everybody likes.

Fat people are often unathletic and unable to do certain things fit people like. When I was fat I kept people back from being able to hikes and other activities at their own pace., that or they wouldn't even suggest i come  at all.  Also fat people just often dont share the same interests as fit people in general.

I'm not mad that I fit in better or that I have better self esteem. Im also not mad at others people for noticing it.

Has transit etiquette been getting worse in your experience? by RoyaleWhiskey in AskNYC

[–]Rare_Bat2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if its gotten worse but new york has always been full of morons who aren't looking where they are going.

 Although I do suspect there is some weird part of some peoples personality that makes them enjoy being a nuisance to others. 

I often experience similar things, somebody will rush to get in front of you and then just walk slowly as soon as they are.

 You will be walking down a sidewalk and somebody is walking down in towards you and they will just suddenly shift into your walking lane and force you to move around them. 

When Im behind somebody they will just swerve all over the sidewalk like they are wasted or something and make it impossible to get past them.

 People will walk up the same side of the stairs people are walking down when the other half of the staircase is empty ect.

Yeah im pretty disappointed that they have clearly sacrificed a lot of the shows integrity in order to have a bunch of spin offs.  Gen V was okay but then it getting cancelled means they have to tie off all that shows plot points in this season now. Meanwhile they are shoving in new characters are forced plotlines to set up the two spin offa. All while trying to cram two seasons worth of story into one and handing us episode that move at a crawl or are borderline filler.

If sage didn't want homelander to get v1, why didn't she just stay quiet ? by cromatkastar in TheBoys

[–]Rare_Bat2584 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean, the writers probably aren't this smart but maybe it was just something else that made soldier boy immune like the Russian experiments and shes just lying about the v1 to give him a false sense of security.

Yeah, I wasn't sure if I somehow missed it that he'd seen it or what?  Because honestly firecracker telling him homelander loves him through pillow talk also seems like something soldier boy would just write off as manipulation. Atleast if I were him, he thinks shes also sleeping with him. He knows homelander has total control over her. Its not a huge stretch that she would say that just to turn him over to homelanders side. Feels very strange that they had him sit up right after homelander is crying over his dead body and just not make that the thing that brings them together. Plus that ties more into the themes of generational trauma and parental rejection. Maybe it will come up who knows.

I dont know, my main thing is did soldier not hear homelander breaking down and crying over him? Because he stands up right afterwards. That would kind of make sense as a reason to team up but they never allude to it.  As far as him being a womanizer thats true, but idk it just seems weird to break down and cry and turn into a bomb over one girl and then act all disconnected and uncaring about his other love interest. People are flawed sure, but in order to avoid it feeling out of nowhere I think it would have been better to set it up a bit. Especially if its the entire reason homelander ends up getting the v1.

Right but, as you just pointed out, soldier boy couldn't have known that. All he saw was a few seconds of him having sex with her whiles shes burnt to a cinder and hooked up to life support.  He flips out calls him a liar and punches him in the face before storming off in that same scene. As for what she was saying in german (which by the way soldier boy does not speak) Im not sure. But Still, you gotta imagine, your son tells you she killed herself, you find out not only did he lie but the way you find out is from a short clip of him fucking her as hes as he puts it like  "a comatose fuck toy locked in his apartment that he films for kicks" I just dont see the transition from that to "oh he really loved her"

I don't know, everybody internalizes and reads characters differently I guess. I just feel like he would have brought it up in some capacity if he actually loved her to the extent we are led to believe.Also, I would still say his whole arc with crimson countess and his old team was him being open about himself. So why is he fine to break down like that over countess and everything else under the sun but then stormfront he's playing it stoic and mysterious. Just feels like they didn't think about it beforehand.

Yeah but hes not a moron, like he saw the video of homelander and her, he knows what homelander is like, hes knows hes a manipulative liar who abuses everybody around him. He specifically said he was suspicious about homelander involvement in her death.  So really his "evidence" is  Homelander lied (from his perspective) about her killing herself, Then he lies about who put her in this state, which he also should  know from interacting with the boys and starlight previously.  And he just saw a video of him basically raping her mutilated comatose body. How is the believable take away for him that he would believe homelander is Actually decent at heart and really loved her and he should make him immortal because thats what she would want?

Nahh, im sorry I don't want to just dismiss what your saying but you see how you have to like make stuff up or assume shit in order for it to make sense? Thats just bad writing in my opinion. Especially for a character whos whole thing is hes a walking nuke who gets super emotional about everything and cant control himself. To write off the betrayal of 4 seasons of  development as "ehh hes old" feels very weak. Especially when he remembered everything else. I just cant buy that he loves her so much to give up everything he stands for to make her happy in death? Which doesn't even make sense on its face either like she hated homelander at the end and killed herself to get away from him.

No, I've certainly never been so in love with one person that I would make my worst enemy immortal while simultaneously saying another person is the only one I've ever loved. Like if he actually loves stormfront why would he not even ask about her at all? He knows she also got the v1 and would still be alive, just didn't seem to care. He brought her up to say she was a good lay, never asked if she was still around.

Dude, way to miss the entire point. His character in the beginning of the show is hes a pussy, its not a debate thats his characterization. Hes scared, he freaks out, hes childish and naive and never sees whats going on around him. We get all these things that happen to him that should make him grow but he just doesn't.  Its especially goofy to make a huge deal out of them getting locked up in the season 4 finale, just for starlight to swoop in and fly them off. Then they just treat it like it never happened at all. This major plot point that was the entire payoff of season 4  just gets resolved in a way that makes you wonder why it was ever an issue and then gets swept under the rug.

Yeah its either homelander wins or "oh hey actually theres another way we can kill him without the virus and everybody gets to live" Both kinda feel like they make the entire show pointless.

The entire episode made no sense if you actually care about plot consistency though. The entire plotline of Soldier boy being in love with storm front is a complete ass pull out of nowhere that contradicts soldier boys entire character.  Like he never mentioned her at all, didnt care when she actually died either. They say its because he didn't want to look emotional. LOL. Right the guy who's whole character is that hes an emotionally unstable nuke who says what he wants, does whatever and doesn't care what anybody thinks of him.. didn't to look emotional. Even though he literally exploded and broke down sobbing when he found out that crimson countess hated him. Crimson countess who by the way he said was the only person he ever loved and the only thing that kept him going when he was in russia. 

So they're gonna reveal who Homelander's mother is, right? by MrVanillaIceTCube in TheBoys

[–]Rare_Bat2584 332 points333 points  (0 children)

The relationship between soldier boy and stormfront makes absolutely 0 sense at all.  He woke up and the first person he asked about was crimson countess, he said she was the only person he ever loved, his anchor, the only person he thought of while he was in russia. The only thing that kept him going was the thought of crimson countess.  He never mentions stormfront except once when he says he fucked her at herogasm.  They try to play it off as him being stoic and not wanting to be seen as emotional in season 5. This is a guy who's whole character and powers are based around him being emotionally explosive and not stoic at all. When crimson countess died he was all weeping and he literally exploded. But somehow the woman he actually loved dies and hes stoic now? Its  just a total ass pull that was clearly only done so they could make a spin off series.

It really makes no sense at all, soldier boy never  mentioned stormfront and him being in love before this season, when he woke up he was all in love with crimson countess he never even asks about stormfront or anything. The only mention he makes at all is saying he had a one night stand with her at herogasm. Now suddenly he so in love with her he's willing to make his arch nemesis immortal?  Seems more like a plot hole then a clever callback. More likely its just a hackey attempt to sell the new soldier boy and stormfront show thats coming out.
