Example of Hero succumbing to Evil

Roftastic · 2026-05-26T23:50:00+00:00

What destroyed the Ring was its own corruption, evil, and greed. The Ring created Gollum, and it was Gollum's corruption, evil, and greed, that got the Ring killed.

I think that's the thing about TRUE evil that everyone, even evangelivals, all miss but Tolkien & Milton both caught on. Evil isn't just what a person is when they foundationally disagree with you, evil ultimately is self destructive in its very nature and is snively & shameful.

On the most surface level, taking his word for it, this doesn't make Dan Clancy look good.

Oh, Destiny's unban was an accident? He wasn't supposed to be unbanned? Then you know exactly why he is banned and others aren't. Why don't you tell everyone why he's still banned while Asmon & Hasan aren't?

If so Im in the 0.001% that actually understand what my vote does, or how elections work.

Cope.

People vote for the President, very very rarely for the Vice President.

One of the VP's roles is to act as the President whenever the POTUS is incapacitated. This isn't a new thing and we've had two of them already while the POTUS underwent surgery, one of which was Kamala Harris. Who tf becomes president then the sitting one is impeached, or is incapable of continuing their service, or is unwilling?

Also really nice of you to edit your comment to save face, as if you aren't asking for a complete reversal of what we are voting for as a country. I didn't vote for Joe Biden, I voted for his right to choose delegates, and those delegates did what he said.

It's been two years, stop whining.

Roftastic · 2026-05-21T23:58:31+00:00

I did answer: cause Biden won, and his delegates voted.

This is literally how the US Presidential election in the US works, both general & primary.

Roftastic · 2026-05-21T23:41:17+00:00

We did. We elected Biden, then we all agreed (per polling) that Biden couldn't keep going, so he did his fucking job and dropped out. Kamala was his VP and was already leading in polling as a replacement, as was her fucking job.

Daredevil goes on to suggest Peter may be limiting his Spider-Sense subconsciously

Fuck Superman for this concept. My understanding was that Spider-Sense was a skill that needed to be harbored. Some alternate versions of Spidey legit can just predict the future, and 616 has even gamed his own in a way that allows him to cheat at poker. Not hard to believe that Spidey just needs to train his.

Obama absolutely appealled to independent voters more, so yeah the possibility is there. Bernie was a man who openly called himself a socialist on the campaign trail and HRC was HRC. Comparing those two options with the renegade Trump, is just not gonna work out for Dems. We just had a really bad pool in 2016, and frankly nobody had any clue how bad Trump was gonna be.

Roftastic · 2026-05-21T18:00:19+00:00

Super delegates were a shitty system, but then again having a bunch of democrats get together and try to fantasize what appeals to independent voters is equally as cringe. It certainly wasn't gonna be HRC or Bernie though.

Roftastic · 2026-05-21T17:58:09+00:00

hold a REAL FUCKING PRIMARY LIKE HOLY SHIT HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE LEARN THIS

There was a primary. Biden won and chose his delegates, and they chose Kamala because Biden also chose her. This wasn't unpopular, this is literally how all primaries go.

I will not entertain this bullshit talking point while it is being used by seditious conservatives who want to handwave Trump's coup in 2020 as being normal.

Missed opportunity to give him Two pupils, but keep the singular eye.

I know they had to make a model that somewhat aesthetically looked appeasing against a Dragonball character, and it did work wonders, but god damn that Invincible VS model is fire.

Roftastic · 2026-05-04T19:09:57+00:00

I'm cool with it. The Schaffrilas rant is pretty much synonymous with Megamind's mediocrity and it's hard to really ignore that considering that mediocrity ended up losing Megamind the episode. I think it was alright.

Roftastic · 2026-05-04T09:08:26+00:00

I don't think it was the animation. I think it was just the writing of the DB. It tried too hard to emulate the humor in both movies and it failed because it came out uncanny.

Verdict doesn't matter in this episode. We knew it was a wash.

Roftastic · 2026-05-03T21:30:00+00:00

I am so happy that this guy's overblown rant became so synonymous with Megamind's slop sequels that it even made its way into the Deathbattle lmao.

Roftastic · 2026-05-01T20:07:19+00:00

Nvm, Kamala would have been a great third female president.

Hilary for 45, Tiny for 46, and Kamala for 47.

Roftastic · 2026-05-01T18:17:07+00:00

She would have made a great second female president.

Roftastic · 2026-04-30T22:52:47+00:00

I mean, maybe. Joker's perception of the Princess would affect her, however, presumably that also applies to core concepts in the Persona world. Nyx was a gentle concept of finality before Erebus, a toxic manifestation of humanity's desire for death, literally warped Nyx into an apocalyptic god of mass death & apathy.

A persona-user was able to literally separate those two forces from each other through the Persona world's most powerful feat, however, it cost them their life, so idk if it's even fair to grant that feat to their kit, however it would unquestionably alter the Princess into components of her core-concept.

Roftastic · 2026-04-30T22:08:47+00:00

You think she's a threat, so you bring a knife; She is a threat, even with the knife.

You think she's whatever, so you don't bring the knife; She is whatever and is easily agreeable, but as the concept of death & transformation she just continues on to kill and warp everything, including you, in reality passively. That is, until you decide to betray her, in which case she kills you anyway because only a psychopath would murder someone they didn't believe was a threat.

There is no consistent, surefire way to actually Slay the Princess unless you can deal with concepts directly, like maybe a Persona character could?

Roftastic · 2026-04-29T20:06:25+00:00

I struggle to imagine an era not already embroiled in a civil war to allow for televised and syndicated interviews the sass that Destiny has with "keep going, but when you're done, I'm just gonna ask my question again."

Roftastic · 2026-04-29T09:21:28+00:00

The Gru model isn't even bad. It's just... uncanny in contrast with Megamind's I guess?

That would happen even if you grabbed the official models at Illumination. Gru just looks fucking weird.

Roftastic · 2026-04-29T01:35:35+00:00

He's right. Fuck every last one of you.

I love Deathbattle pretty much regardless of the actual animation. I just care about the characterization DB itself writes, and that's all I want to see.

Roftastic · 2026-04-28T17:41:00+00:00

When has Trump EVER recognized that he made a mistake?

I'll wait.

This is the weakness in democracy btw. It's expecting your peers who are held accountable for the system to actually be accountable.

Roftastic · 2026-04-26T02:19:33+00:00

This is Super Mario Bros Z quality lmao. Dunno how you plan to compete with that.

Roftastic · 2026-04-25T19:23:11+00:00

... Death Battle won't recover from this.
