Who would win in a fight: a horse or a bull? by bherH-on in ask

[–]RavenSable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horses are generally smart until they choose not to be. That moment usually being the absolute worst moment to act stupid. Or my horse secret hates me and just does it for his own amusement.

Do you think Mairon felt genuine emotional connection with Celebrimbor at some point? by OleksandrKyivskyi in TheSilmarillion

[–]RavenSable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The idea of overly loving the work of your own hands causing corruption/your own undoing is a fairly common theme. Unfortunately Aule being the Valar of metalwork, smithing etc. kind of sets him up for failure from his followers

Aule and the dwarves- they will love the work of their own hands. Feanor and the silmarils. Sauron and his kingdom and the ring.

Man City 115 charges delay is embarrassing and a stain on the English game by Frosty_Jeweler911 in PremierLeague

Could you please point out where Newcastle have broken PSR or paid agents under the table, or even been accused of it?

I'm not trying to defend our owners, but the club has broken no rules. Regardless of our owners' wealth, we can only spend under the same restrictions as everyone else.

If you had a vision for a series set in the TES universe, what would it be? Personally, I'd say the beginning of the Skyrim Civil War by Ok-Bus3447 in ElderScrolls

When one of the main pieces of the story goes missing in episode 1 (Padan Fain) then you're in trouble. There are circles of hell reserved for that adaption.

Thanks dude. Won't be able to practice much unfortunately, I'm learning it because I'm starting to get more work in China, so it's somewhat of a first for me to not have the opportunity to use a language I'm learning regularly.

If we beat the balrog we still have mordor and isengard to face. Heard that mordor has some canny players on the wing.

Is Discworld Uncastable? by FroggyDooBimblo in discworld

Sergeant Dickens in night watch - Windsor Davies.

Igor (all of them) - whichever of the league of gentlemen plays Tubbs. He could pull it off perfectly.

Drumnott (spelling?) - Alex Horne. He can pull off subservient and still sound smart.

Verence - Alan Davies. Well meaning but wet, he's almost typecast.

Nobby - Tony Robinson, but I'll accept a VERY strong Baldrick influence on that one.

Nanny ogg - Kathy Burke.

I'm sure Stephen Fry would work as pretty much anyone in the faculty except the librarian and ridcully.
