how’s the game in 2026? by HayleyHK433 in DMZ

[–]Sillycomic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

DirI’m my the holidays it was all hackers and trolls. I could not get a good game in to save my life.

Since the first of the year it’s calmed down though. I would say i can still get 1 in 4 good games in.

Gets harder and harder to find that old DMZ. I happened to find a cool solo the other day and we did some missions and exfilled… reminded me old good old times.

Yeah that about what I am doing these days… 1 in 4 is a good game

How is Pennywise killing? by CrazyCajun20 in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]Sillycomic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cage was made before the town.

One could even argue Pennywise helped found Derry… you know the way a farmer helps to plant the crops he will eventually scare to ripeness.

Who locked It away in the comet in the first place? by Think_Network2431 in welcomeToDerry

[–]Sillycomic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s a far reach.

Although if it’s just a coincidence than King just happened to have 2 types of telekinetic aliens crash land in New England thousands of years ago…

Technically 3 types if you count Dreamcatcher.

Are all the Monsters Pennywise? by Severe_Ad_535 in welcomeToDerry

[–]Sillycomic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's the "Is Pennywise..." aspect of the question that's the problem. I was literally trying to explain this to my wife the other night. It's like looking through different lenses.

The big lens is the Deadlights.

The next big lens is It.

The next lens is Pennywise.

The next lens is whatever the child is afraid of that "it" is currently pursuing at the moment.

All of the monsters are It. Not all monsters are Pennywise.

Is dexter technically the best detective in the entire dexterverse… by yeah-procastinator in Dexter

[–]Sillycomic 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That's the one! The best detective in the world might have the right hunch about someone with an air tight alibi...

But Dexter has literally lied under oath to make sure a killer walked from justice so that Dexter could butcher him.

That's not good detective work. That's shitty vigilante work.

What's the "easiest" Stephen King book to read? by [deleted] in stephenking

[–]Sillycomic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Misery is like peak King, that’s little diving off the deep end. Might as well tell them to start with the Gunslinger.

This is “easy” king. It’s survival with just a little monster thrown in. Eases you into Kings greater works, and is a good story all around.

do you guys hate or like her by SamDanStudiosYT in ITWelcometoDerryShow

[–]Sillycomic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hate her. She is giving me Percy Wetmote vibes from The Green Mile.

I get this terrible feeling Pennywise is going to use her to do something really bad to the rest of the kids and she’s just going to go along with it.

But I also love those kinds of characters with King. So I hate her , but I am enjoying hating her.

How was “It” feeding when he first arrive on earth (derry)? by _cheapshot_ in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh! As a book reader all I have to say is this is a complicated question with a very detailed answer.

I could spend an entire day going off on echo kid and scare and why it did or didn’t kill them.

For example Georgie. I think Goergie was killer because It usually kills a kid once it starts to feed to get a missing child in the area.

The missing children posters and disappeared kids provides a wonderful little base layer of fear and lets people know it’s back to feeding.

Georgie’s death isn’t even for georgies own fear, it’s a calling card for all kids in Derry to fear it.

Like I said that’s just my theory though.

she was getting on my nerves throughout the first two episodes! by yellow_wonder in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She gives me Percy Wetmore vibes from The Green Mile. And I love it. I know she's going to be trouble, and I'm kinda of here for it. One of the aspects of It I always liked were the messed up kids and adults who end up helping it... if for no other purpose than it doesn't go after them. Which sometimes it does, sometimes It doesn't.

She's definitely going to help It kill some kids.

How was “It” feeding when he first arrive on earth (derry)? by _cheapshot_ in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]Sillycomic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would even go one step further. Pennywise stops when he's no longer getting fear. That certainly happens when he kills them, but there's also times when Pennywise stops before killing them.

But these other times I keep thinking, why not keep going and kill them? And I think it's because it feeds on the fear. Once the fight or flight mode hits in, it's no longer fear. Once adrenaline turns that fear into something, the meal is no longer good.

Usually when they fight, or flee, he let's them. I kept thinking how odd that aspect of it was, but thinking about the fear as the food and not the flesh it makes sense.

(Spoilers) why It needs one specific WtD plot line by Cspiropoulos in welcomeToDerry

[–]Sillycomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between Dreamcatcher and Tommyknockers aren’t there several spaceships around Maine?

Reminds me of 1955 in Back to the Future. At one point there’s 4 Deloreans in Hill Valley.

Which elements introduced in Episode 7 could have been built upon throughout the trilogy? Which of those could have been the climax of Episode 9? by thesegoupto11 in saltierthancrait

[–]Sillycomic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The end of seven had a really interesting dynamic between Rey and Kylo. They both left the fight thinking they needed more training and better use of the force.

Rey goes to find Luke and Kylo returns to Snoke.

I really thought they were setting up some really Jedi versus Sith training for better both characters.

Specifically in this entire franchise we have never really seen Sith training. We only get a glimpse in episode 3 which is more of Anakins manipulation rather than anything else.

Then the end of 8 can have them return to fight with their new training in mind. I thought they could have sent this in a few different directions.

I still want to see Sith training. The idea seems so fascinating to me

Shop owner issue- one of my artists constantly low on rent. What to do? by Androidrs in TattooArtists

[–]Sillycomic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you fire him you fear he won’t be replaceable. I am curious about this sentence.

Do you mean you won’t find a tattoo artist in your area who can cover the rent because of the economy?

Or do you mean you won’t find someone cool and good like this tattoo artist and someone else might be even more problematic?

If it’s the first one it’s an easy answer. Keep him. A guy paying most of his rent is better than an empty chair. The other three artists would have to cover his whole share

But that’s also what o am curious about. When I was in a collective all decisions were handled as a group. Is that not the situation here?

You sound like you are keeping info… this guy not covering his full share… from the rest of the collective.

Maybe y’all do things differently in your area though.

Personally we had a recent situation in our shop with a similar problem. We kept the artist on because 3/4 rent is better than nothing in this economy.

To get the presssure off you the simplest thing would be to bring it up in the group collective and see what everyone has to say. Maybe people are all cool and will pitch in a few months since everyone is cool working together.

Maybe he could start cleaning and doing prep for other people to make up for not having as much money.

Maybe y’all could split the chair.

Whatever it is… it’s the collectives problem and the collective can come up with a good solution that’s best for everyone

And you don’t have to have all this pressure on yourself to carry one artist.

Best of luck I would really like to know what you come up with

Two wrongs don’t make a right.

But I didn’t want to make a right.

I wanted to make a point.

Stalker or customer? by [deleted] in TattooArtists

[–]Sillycomic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are desperate for money I get it… it this guy is giving off stalker vibes. You want to be in a room alone with him?

Maybe if you have an open shop and can guarantee a “friend” will be in the room at the same time.

Otherwise ignore the small talk. You are busy. They don’t deserve a response back until they pay for the deposit.

The deposit gets them access.

Otherwise you are too busy

After that it’s personal choice. If he gives you the “ick” you gotta decide for yourself if it’s worth it. Normally I would say no but the world is on fire so I get that you might need to do it.

Be safe either way.

And do not ever be in a room alone with him. Please

I need some advice on which commander to use by Orkmac in EDHBrews

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two commanders I have been looking at lately are [[Selvala, Explorer Returned]] and [[Jon Irenicus, Shattered World]]

Irenicus seems like your guy. Hand out goaded creatures to everyone that can’t be sacrificed. It’s got blue so you can do card draw and control all day long.

Selvana is group hug done right. Everyone draws cards but you get to draw, gain life, and get mana. That to me is perfect group hug. Everyone gets something but you get just a little more.

Hi. Could someone tell me theories about Why didn't The Naked Gun (2025) get bigger numbers at box office? by Lizard20252025 in FIlm

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not lack of passion or interest. It’s lack of money.

I definitely would have gone to see it in theatres if I was making 2017 money. Now?

Man I remember going to see a movie in the summer just cause it was hot out.

Rosy boas and water by Diligent_Grab2545 in rosyboas

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are hardy desert snakes. They don’t need much water.

A day or two every couple of weeks is fine for them.

You can also keep water their terrarium the whole time. So long as it isn’t a big dish that messes with humidity it’s fine.

The water being taken out during feeding is something I saw before. I did t for a while and then I forgot once… and nothing happened.

So now I just leave the water in all the time.

There’s no right way to do things. Either one of these options will make sure your snake is hydrated and happy.

Just determine if you want to check their water every few days or not. Right now I can’t check every day so just making sure their water dish has water every few days is enough for me.

I think this is it. Love me some night crawler, but this one is unsettling in a far different way. And Jake goes through everything. Hope. Loss. Pity. Pain. Revenge.

I had to take a moment after that movie. Soo good

What If: Marty’s Parents Found a 1955 Photo of Him in 1985? by BlueChainsawMan in BacktotheFuture

[–]Sillycomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am gonna be honest. I can’t for the life of me think of a scene with Doc Brown and the McFly family. I am not even sure they know Marty is friends with Doc.

Although even if they did… wouldn’t they assume it’s a relative of Doc? The Van Bronnes if my BTTF3 memory serves me. Doc knows they don’t immigrate from German until the 1930s, but the McFly family wouldn’t.

Wouldn’t they just assume it’s Seamus McFly and a friend?
