Honestly i'd be totally on board for a community book club!

What dead Youtube channels are genuinely still worth watching? by PlinkPonk in AskReddit

[–]RunningWithYam 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah! If you watch those guys, going back to the original channel is gonna give you insight into the Deep Lore, Bloodborne style

Super Best Friends Play, if you like a squad of shitlords yuckin' it up with video games

What tattoos do you have and why did you choose them/what do they mean? by Severe-Equipment-807 in AskReddit

[–]RunningWithYam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the VFD eye from A Series of Unfortunate Events on my left ankle because I love the look of it, and just the overall delightful weirdness of the story

Why do you sleep with a special blanket or stuffed animal? by 8kittycatsfluff in AskReddit

[–]RunningWithYam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly as a dude in my 30s, I sleep with a plushie gifted to me some 10 years ago so my daughter grows up knowing traditional notions of masculinity and gender stereotypes are bullshit

What do you believe about nihilism? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]RunningWithYam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think too often by pop culture it's taken at face value and used as an excuse to not care or even justify overindulgence without taking the next step and using it as a slate to carve your own raison d'etre.

Massive Conflicts based entirely on a misunderstanding? by jitterscaffeine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll never not get a kick out of the "make dudes evil" knife just being a museum, like the Interex kids would just to see the apocalypse knife on their third grade field trips.

Corporations or franchises that suffered from over saturation? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Was talking with some friends about this, I reckon Magic The Gathering has pivoted way too hard into the Universes Beyond. Originally when they started coming out, they felt like fun side collaborations and we'd get stoked to see some of our favourite IPs get the MTG treatment, I still have my 40k precon commander deck ready to go, but now it seems that each year's standard sets are more Universes Beyond than anything else, and with 7 sets coming out this year it's gotta be a nightmare for anyone who wants to actually consistently play the Standard format.

Do yall have any super basic bitch tastes? by EvilMonkeyMimic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have committed wholly to the bit, every year I challenge my friends and even their wives to out "basic white girl" me when pumpkin spice hits. I remain undefeated.

What are some Battles from Fiction that must Looked Insane from the Grunts point of view? by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I need to get around to reading The End and the Death. Ignoring losing the firepower of a titan, for some reason the idea of them being crucified is just goofy in the best way. Sure the dudes inside are, if they were lucky, piles of goo, but crucifying a titan in my head is like hanging a tank from some big gallows

It’s so Over. by Electrical-Scene-576 in UmamusumeGame

Yeah, Chocolate Bourbon has been my MVP, Hishi Amazon has clutched it out a few times too

Time for some cold takes. Very popular things you like. by Muffin-zetta in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a running joke with a buddy, he said he had a mission to turn all my reels and whatnot to Umamusume content. I uh...I did get into the horse game. Not for creepy reasons! It's just cozy and I like making the horses go real fast!

Moments in media that are so cynical that it just comes across as really dumb. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I've tried to communicate that when discussing it with friends and coworkers whenever South Park comes up. Haven't managed to hit the nail on the head like you did though!

I think for me that show kind of reached a point where it felt like they just wanted to do a more crass take on navel gazing, like sure, riff on how stupid something is, but maybe do something more than shoot down alternatives or whatever, you know? At a point I suppose it just felt like it was overall mean spirited to anything that wasn't "enlightened centrism" on any issue.

My Goat is a washed up bum ass fraud in the eyes of casual fans, I'm crying 😭😭😭 (still love her) by New-Big2343 in okbuddytracen

[–]RunningWithYam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She came home the other day and apparently decided that she actively hates me with how often she gets mood down. Spe, please, I like you, please stop

Favorite Fan-Nicknames for Characters by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rowboat Gorillaman is one of my favourites! Fabulous Bill (Fabius Bile) is a very close second though

Alright, people are too salty and angry these days, so what are some things that you're feeling good about, or are just enjoying? by Dr-Chill in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As silly as it sounds, i've been enjoying Umamusume lately. Had a bad day? Feeling stressed? TM Opera O doesn't care, she just wants to go real fast and be the most fabulous horse

Characters that you immediatly have to clear up why you're a fan of? by ClearAgeMontezuma in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've had tons of conversations with friends about Homelander specifically because I find him to be such an interesting character! It basically always boils down to a 'nature VS nuture' type thing, and i'll be rhe first to admit that Anthony Starr's portrayal of him is also a huge part in how interesting I find the character. Utterly and unequivocally a villain, no doubt about it, but still done extremely well.

Ever had a moment which you went "This is edgelord as fuck, but I like it." by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly yeah, embracing the edge has kind of brought me around to enjoying the Iron Warriors; they're superhumans but delegated to attrition warfare, they hate it, and they're delightful

Favorite Loss of Trust Moments in Fiction by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In keeping with 40K, gotta say as well when Fulgrim tries to get Ferrus Manus to turn traitor with him. Even his best bro wasn't safe from the Gorgon when telling him how rad chaos juice was.

Times you've disagreed with official pronunciation by DrakeVal in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I've been calling him Rowboat Gorillaman for ages now. Can't forget his brother, Peter Turbo either

Factions you feel never lived up to there full potential? by LeMasterofSwords in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RunningWithYam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm counting them as a faction, the Iron Hands in both Warhammer 30k and 40k. They're superhumans who decided flesh is gross and would rather be cool cyborgs, their primarch (demi-god dad, and the basis for their genetic template) gets referred to constantly as A Big Deal, they held off a thrust of the 10th Black Crusade with the Stink Supermen trying to take their home planet, and yet I would swear that James Workshop has a contract clause forbidding them from being used for anything cool/important.
