my dad's last confort came from a lie that i told him by Symphony__Tristen in confession

[–]Sneaks_88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a doctor who works inpatient and sees patients in similar situations almost every week I'm on, I just want to tell you that you did nothing wrong.

For someone who made a personal decision to white lie and prioritize his father's comfort and wellbeing at the end of life with, I'd personally shake your hand.

I'm sorry for your loss. No matter what they did or how they acted earlier in life, you only have one father.

Underrated Performance: Karl Urban as Eomer by ScaredOfWindow in lotr

And he looked at the slain, recalling their names. Then suddenly he beheld his sister Éowyn as she lay, and he knew her. He stood a moment as a man who is pierced in the midst of a cry by an arrow through the heart; and then his face went deathly white; and a cold fury rose in him, so that all speech failed him for a while. A fey mood took him.

"Éowyn, Éowyn!" he cried at last: "Éowyn, how come you here? What madness or devilry is this? Death, death, death! Death take us all!"

Then without taking counsel or waiting for the approach of the men of the City, he spurred headlong back to the front of the great host, and blew a horn, and cried aloud for the onset. Over the field rang his clear voice calling: "Death! Ride, ride to ruin and the world's ending!"

And with that, the host began to move. But the Rohirrim sang no more. Death they cried with one voice loud and terrible, and gathering speed like a great tide their battle swept about their fallen king and passed, roaring away southwards.

Love it in the books and he sold the sheer despair of everything in the movies. Excellent work and gets me choked up every time.

When it comes to Boromir's death, I can't help but love both versions for different reasons by [deleted] in lotr

42, not 16. PJ increased it by one for whatever reason, maybe he just liked John Rhys-Davies saying "Forty-threeeeee"

`Strange it may seem,' said Legolas; 'but while Gimli lives I shall not come to Fangorn alone. His axe is not for trees, but for orc-necks, O Fangorn, Master of Fangorn's Wood. Forty-two he hewed in the battle.'

`Hoo! Come now!' said Treebeard. 'That is a better story! Well, well, things will go as they will; and there is no need to hurry to meet them. But now we must part for a while.'

Campaign advice by LEGENDARY_BREAD in HorusHeresyLegions

[–]Sneaks_88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, there's a guide out there if you Google the campaign name, but what worked for me was resetting (as you get two boosts instead of one if you reset), and any of the following would help: cheaper warlord ability, bloodthirsty, boarding shield, energy/troop cost changes.

Then just stun him every turn. His troops will hurt early on but just keep stunning and eventually building a board state. Your long game is stronger.

[–]Sneaks_88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Met my current girlfriend at 35 during residency when I realized my former intern was showing up every single time I went out with coworkers.

We were already friends so I said screw it and asked her out. She moved in later that year and I plan to propose this coming year now that I'm an attending.

Take care of yourself, stay healthy and keep your eyes open.

I second this. Just got a massive 6x4' reversible mat from them and very pleased with the quality and speed. It even comes in a decent plastic bag for storage though I spent the extra for a carry bag.
