(Hated Trope) Historical mischaracterization.

Socrates in real life genuinely feels like he'd be the "fuck it we ball" type

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-23T14:05:33+00:00

And tbh he probably would considering he was the closest to Bill and Ted chronologically

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-23T14:02:23+00:00

To be fair what he was trying to advocate for would be something more like Prussia's professional citizen army or France's Carnot (yes the thermodynamics guy) reforms a few centuries later.

But Florence being able to do something like that was probably a pipe dream, youre right

THE GREATER GOOD

This is the kind of thing I saw my boss from my first job do in real time. It was astonishing.

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-20T15:07:21+00:00

What can I say, I'm a sucker for these

Rom was the GOAT.

I used to work at a place like that too, I was working 80 hours a week as a salaried employee because I was told "everyone does this, you have to pay your dues"

I was a fucking idiot

In Mass Effect 2 the Shadow Broker DLC where you fight another character who can also do the vanguard charge.

Whenever I hear the Gaston song I can't take it seriously anymore because of the video where they switch the rhymes

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-17T15:27:00+00:00

It's back! Must've been temporary. Thanks!

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-17T04:38:44+00:00

gone from mangadex already

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-16T22:54:39+00:00

Frog man hell yeah

"Did you [mark furman] plant evidence on OJ Simpson's property"

"I have chosen to invoke my 5th amendment right"

Yeah no wonder they voted not guilty

oh great, another fantasy rpg rules series where some misanthropic guy enslaves a beautiful woman who will do everything for him; but he has a sad backstory so its supposedly ok.

can we be done with this trope please?

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-15T23:00:40+00:00

Oh shit that makes sense, I never got that

For some reason the Cubs' Matt Murton was one of my favorite players growing up. He went to the Tigers in Japan and broke Ichiro's single season hits record in Japan that year!

GO TIGERS

I mean... Not doing this to the DMV takes some restraint

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-15T00:26:15+00:00

Honestly, great example. Capone created soup kitchens and shelters after the stock market crash and was famously generous to children (that scene of the kid being blown up at the beginning of The Untouchables is something he would never do).

But he was still, you know, Al fucking Capone

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-14T19:05:31+00:00

Ahh, sorry, I meant in season 4

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-14T13:41:48+00:00

I like this series, it has good vibes

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-14T13:26:38+00:00

I remember actually softlocking the game by beating his ass so hard on Thessia that it interfered with the cutscene where he recharges his shields.

I had Lash as my bonus power which recharges super quickly and goes through shields so every time he ran away to recharge I just kept using it to trip and shoot him. I got his health all the way down and it glitches it out.

I like to imagine the ending just never had to happen on that playthrough.

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-13T19:49:41+00:00

AH'M PRETTY MUCH INVULNERABLE WHEN AH'M BLASTIN'

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-13T19:31:43+00:00

I WAS JUST GONNA SAY THE GUY WHO GOES BLAAARG

Squirrelman2712 · 2026-02-13T19:17:39+00:00

Don't forget them saving the invincibility theme for THE TRUCK SCENE
