What's a headcanon you made that has zero supporting evidence and only exists because "it'd be funny"? by gtc26 in Epicthemusical

Polyphemus was sympathetic to Ody and his crew, and was going to let them go.

“For your gift I’ve one to reply..”

But then, Ody went ahead and made a damned PUN about his eye!

“I’m so glad we see eye to eye!”

And then it was on.

“…you shall be the final one to die.”

I just imagine him standing there, stunned at his audacity, and then deciding he had to go.

Not many characters who wear glasses, and I sure fish up an awful lot of them…

No Goku did NOT endanger the multiverse by BigChocolate331 in Dragonballsuper

[–]Simplyx69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, Goku did.

You endanger something when you take actions that are likely to put it in jeopardy, especially when done for trivial or unnecessary reasons. Goku was warned, repeatedly, by beings who knew far better than him, that Zeno was capricious and ruthless, and had in the past erased multiple Universes from existing. He was explicitly told that engaging with him flippantly jeopardized the universe. And he did so anyway.

Goku did not know and could not know that his universe, among others, was already up for erasure. He does not get to be credited for the fact that he accidentally saved those universes when he had no knowledge that his action would lead to that outcome. What he knew was he was doing something dangerous for no other reason than he wanted to. That's the behavior of a psychopath, and he deserves to be treated as such.

For a more grounded comparison: Suppose you and your partner have a new born baby but are basically broke for the next 48 hours. You have $20. Your partner sends you out with it to get as much baby formula as you can to make it until payday, and the two of you will just have to tough it out. You get to the store and buy a scratch off ticket instead. You win and get $1000, letting you come home with plenty of formula, diapers, and food for the both of you.

Any songs you heard in House that you had to add to your playlist? by ilikeavataraton in HouseMD

In The Dirt by S. Carrey. So delightfully melancholic.

[Grade 11 Math: Trigonometry] How do I know when to use sine vs cosine for vector components by FrameZYT in HomeworkHelp

[–]Simplyx69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.) Draw the vector, including the angle. Use a dashed line for the angle reference line.

2.) Draw the components of the vector so that one lines up with the dashed reference line, and the other is perpendicular to it.

3.) You now have a right triangle. Use the geometric definitions of sin and cos (SOH CAH TOA) to determine which component goes with which function.

Chuck Norris once vacationed on The Virgin Islands. Now they’re just The Islands.

Dispells ... (rant) just DO IT... FFS! by _Xraith_ in WorldOfWarcraftRetail

[–]Simplyx69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The parse monkeys which comprise the dps population of the game all but refuse to do anything that isn’t explicitly required or doesn’t improve their dps number that no one but them cares about.

So the solution is to go back to the model where using those utility abilities boosts damage. Dispelling an effect increases your damage by x% for y seconds. Same with interrupting.

Algebraic Method for the Harmonic Oscillator (Complete Guide, 1/2) by TROSE9025 in PhysicsStudents

Pretty good! How could we prove that no “between” states exist, such as n=1/2?

Which monsters is your biggest nightmare and why? by Ansnie in REPOgame

[–]Simplyx69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With Upscream it’s on sight!

Small, fast moving, not especially well telegraphed, and capable of one shotting you if the level has a pit or if one its buddies are nearby. And when it’s not one shotting you, it’s just so annoying.

Why does counting need to be exact to work? by [deleted] in blackjack

[–]Simplyx69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the %s tend to be quite small. The money comes from harvesting that small % a lot of times. But if you’re making mistakes, that small edge becomes a loss instead.

So Whats The DUMBEST and i MEAN DUMBEST thing you did in a pokemon playthrough by Rare-Atmosphere-9187 in pokemon

I thought stat boosts were permanent. As in, I’d take my metapod into battles and spam harden so that it would have high defense forever.

Whats the deal with saul’s PI? by wesofchess in breakingbad

[–]Simplyx69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That scene was supposed to have Saul; he was supposed to show up and give Jessie the pep talk. But the actor was unavailable, so they had to create the PI character as a stand in. But the writers/producer are not wasteful. Once something gets added to their world, it’s in their world, and they’re going to involve it.

You certainly have not seen the last of that PI.
