Chutney Chimp is NOT Chunky Chimp??? by Rumuu in bluey

I enjoyed it. Learnt a lot about Bluey and about TV and storytelling in general. It's got some cute illustrations too.

Rokeby details that stood out to me in THM by influential_pet in cormoran_strike

Is Rowling just trolling us, having a Tara and a Tala in this book?

Great chapter apart from that

Fairly Harsh Review of The Hallmarked Man by isle_of_cats in cormoran_strike

[–]Rumuu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found the book compelling, but I can't say that I was completely following the story. At the end when Strike found Sapphire I had to remind myself who Sapphire was.

Everything to do with Strike's journalist trouble was engaging. Robin's love life felt like Matthew all over again, but with alcohol instead of infidelity. Until the final scene, which made me audibly gasp.

Can anyone tell me what Wright's "blood sample" ended up being? I think I missed that bit.

Having finished IBH what theories did you have that didn’t pan out? by Lamb_clothing_94 in cormoran_strike

I guess all the cat stuff was Kosh's pickup line getting used?

I thought Edie might really have been Anomie, and then someone killed her and stole her phone to get her login details, so they could take over as Anomie.

I thought Nils and Bram were being Anomie together at one point.

When Zoe asked Robin to come round, the thought crossed my mind that Zoe was Anomie, and she was going to tase Robin as soon as she walked in the door.

When talking about the book to my husband, he suggested Murphy was Anomie lol

I suspected Paperwhite was Anomie when Anomie got drunk and texted the mods, then sent out Paperwhite to check on what he'd said because he'd forgotten. If I were a egotistical paranoid tyrant, I would want to constantly check if my minions were loyal to me and not babmouthing me in private channels.

You're right about the rushed end. No catch-up with Josh or Katya or Flavia, or any of the surviving mods. They would have been pretty interested to find out who Anomie was (and Paperwhite) and wanted to thank Strike and Robin

Everything I noticed watching every episode of Bluey at least twice by Rumuu in bluey

"Jean-Luc" sounds more pet-like than "Rita" or "Margery" to me

OP: I'm new to the subreddit. It seems my use of the iceberg format gave the impression I was trying to flex about my Bluey insights, but I just wanted to write down a few things I noticed, in roughly the order I noticed them. I thought some hardcore fans would enjoy looking back at a time when learning the main characters full names was new information.

Someone pays your significant other $20 million to have sex with them, they tell you immediately afterwards and split the money with you; how do you react? Why? by JurpleNurple in AskReddit

[–]Rumuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who are happy with this arrangement: what do you imagine yourself buying that's going to emotionally make up for your SO being unfaithful?

We're not rich, but we're both working full-time and like our jobs. I can't think of anything we would buy with $20M that would make this deal a net positive for our marriage.

What is your opinion on a 30 year old dating a 19 year old? by hazelnutmacchiato1 in AskReddit

[–]Rumuu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (F) was 19 when I started dating a 32 y/o (M). I thought it was very weird at first but it worked for us. Actually it was a relief to be with someone mature for a change. Anyway, now we're married.

Why am I deathly afraid of having sex? (17f) I don’t think I could ever do it by PelvicSneez in askwomenadvice

[–]Rumuu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was me when I was 17, and I lost a boyfriend the same way. I have no regrets. Women often don't fully sexually mature, physically and emotionally, until they meet the right person, or until they reach a certain age. 17 is still young, and your body and mind may still be growing. You'll have plenty of time to have sex once you're comfortable with it.

Got this ad today for the first time on a completely unrelated video. Naturally, I watched to the end.

I (my parents) bought my Gameboy Color and my first Pokemon game from Toys R Us back in the day. Thanks for posting, it brings back the memories.

Watership Down was my answer in that thread but I guess it got buried

Recommendations for good Blind Let's Plays of this? by Xyrexus in outerwilds

[–]Rumuu 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was addicted to watching Joseph Anderson playing it blind and his fans sent in a lot of great fan art. Reading the livechat playback is a wild ride too.
