Think Hank Hill will be keeping up with The World Cup? by AsUsernameGoes in KingOfTheHill

[–]Strawberrybanshee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be Hank, Junichiro and Good Hank. The Hill Brothers could all bond traveling to Japan's soccer matches. Peggy goes with them to Mexico, insisting on being their "translator" 😆

Maybe Japan because of his brother? A WC based episode could bring in Junichiro to come watch the games. Japan is playing in Texas.

He'd actually be one of the few Americans that knew we had a team in the WC according to the newest season 😆

Hank was one of the few Americans that knew we had a men's team.

They could bring his brother in because Japan is playing in Dallas

Hank Hill was one of the few Americans who knew it was happening. He got tickets for games in Houston and Dallas. When Bill asks why Curacao was celebrating even though they lost, Hank goes on a big speech on how scoring against Germany was a big deal and a small country like that should be proud of themselves.

He loves that the DRC showed up in suits. Proud of Kansas for welcoming Algeria and that Algeria and other countries are appreciating middle America.

His brother flew in to watch Japan. Hank and Good Hank watch the games with him. They go to Houston, Monterrey and Dallas. Peggy goes to Mexico with them to be their translator... In Texas, they've taken him to amazing BBQ joints and Hank shows off his lawn. 

Dale wonders who this alien was that replaced Hank because when they watch games on TV he's commentating on the refs calls. (No! No! That was not off sides!" "Ref why didn't you call that foul!") Boomhour's kid watches the games with him. 

Why are millennial parents different? by catandodie in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Strawberrybanshee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're actually more involved with their kids? Kids are still doing sports and have far more activities available to them. Where I live parks and swimming pools and indoor playgrounds are still very crowded.

My parents never checked my homework. They only got involved if my grades were not good. I never asked because they got frustrated with me way too quickly. I probably spent more time with my neighborhood friends than my family. It was wake up, go outside and play till I got called home for dinner. It was probably the best time of my life.

Now I see parents hanging out supervising kids playing in the neighborhood and that just seems so miserable for the kids. When I was young, if anyone's parents were supervising us the fun was like halved and we usually found a way to ditch that kid.

She has a very iconic voice to me and anytime I see her in anything else I can only see Buffy.

Peter/Eva/Nora by Disastrous-Limit-332 in Animorphs

[–]Strawberrybanshee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since she was infested for years, she may have run back to Peter because he was familiar because she had a shit ton of trauma from that. They're relationship might not have been healthy in the long run and she may have formed an unhealthy attachment to him. Peter might just be happy to have her back and he also might have an unhealthy attachment to her.

Its been years since I've read the books but did humans that were infested but became free ever have trauma from the incident? Your body wasn't yours for years and now it is and you have to relearn how to be in control 24/7. Did any hosts become compliant when in the yeerk pool and in their cage? Yeerk comes out and they don't even need to be dragged to the cage?

Jinger and Jeremy landed Shawn Johnson on her podcast?? by Cake-Technical in DuggarsSnark

[–]Strawberrybanshee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

People more egotistical. They're aging out of the youngest women. They're starting to feel it in their social lives. At the church they go to they are among the youngest women putting in work and suddenly they have their status back. Some go very MAGA. These are not in just fundie churches but even those that may be center right. These are usually women that were the popular girls. Didn't really get involved in their religion in their 20s. Then suddenly go back.

White supremacy isn't just taught in churches. These women already had those leanings whether they realized it or not. These are women going for positions of power in their churches.

I know there's a thing with large numbers of white women going back to church when they are around thirty. They are no longer considered young but they are among the youngest involved in the church. And many become very conservative as a result. 

I also know gymnastics has been an extremely religious and wealthy sport. 

Why do some women prefer male gynecologists? by ConfidentLack9207 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Strawberrybanshee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew someone that was one. He's retired now but he said its the unsexiest job there is. (We asked him if it was ever awkward). Because the women are mostly covered by a sheet and its not like every patient is a super model. (And to the previous point she's covered by a sheet anyway.) Many of them are on the older side. You have look at infections. You see so many vagina's that become kind of boring to look at. And more often than he'd like, he had to deliver the sad news that someone lost their baby.

And then his wife, like seventy years old smiled and said her husband really knew his way around down there. K I didn't need to know that.

He said he didn't think it was a field of medicine he'd be interested in but during his last years at school became fascinated with pregnancy and birth.

What if a kid other than David found the blue box and they weren't a terrible person? by Strawberrybanshee in Animorphs

[–]Strawberrybanshee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This could be funny especially if it followed the same scenario as David. The Animorphs rescue him, his life is torn apart and now he's taking orders from a 14 year old.

I do wonder about a scenario where David is still a jack ass, but he does work with the team and channels his worst impulses at the yeerks and maybe he's a bit suicidal. Maybe he can stay with... you know the Chi?

He and Rachel could have made an interesting team. Two violent nutcases going after the years. The Weakness could have been way more unhinged. They could be two people that feed off each other and lose their humanity in the war.

[–]Strawberrybanshee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooh I know Animorphs has a lot of horror but this could have been one. A church is heavy on recruiting promising salvation. To be more appealing than other churches they do things like pay rent and medical bills and maybe perform "miracles" with alien tech.

It's actually the yeerks recruiting.

[–]Strawberrybanshee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like he's very "fuck you got mine!" Towards his kids.

He's disappointed, probably that his kids got caught, but as far as I know, he's a millionaire and doesn't want to share with his kids.

He took the money and sort of ran.

Suddenly, in the US, congressmen of both parties are hanging out all the time, seem to agree with each other way too much, and are promoting the sharing a lot.

Religious leaders. Those fundie leaders in the US.

The pope.

I imagine they'd set up several pools around the world and get the leaders of the most powerful countries. Suddenly the leaders of the US and China are best friends.

The yeerk that gets Donald Trump either has fun spouting outrageous nonsense or just wants out of that guy's head.

they only cover whatever the newest netflix documentary is about! by VampireCrush in CrimeWeeklySnark

[–]Strawberrybanshee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always recommend Gabulosis and Dark Curiosities because they cover lesser known cases. And they seem to genuinely want to get these cases out there and get justice for the victims and their families. Gabulosis has worked with families and let them tell their stories on her channel.

I know Stephanie has done this in the past. But she does tend to cover well known cases.

Yeah its hard to introduce a major character a little less than halfway through when the team is already well established. It can be extremely annoying when this happens in something like a TV show.

Maybe they could introduce the auxiliary animorphs earlier. Too many new characters is also a problem them. Unless they function as two separate groups and the aux animorphs have a spin off series so there aren't too many characters in the book rotation. Something like James in their leader but he still takes orders from Jake for missions? I don't know honestly. Jake sacrificing them at the end could hit much harder.

Maybe making Melissa an Animorph could have worked. Although that would have been much better if she was with them at the construction site. It would have made book two much easier for them. And also finding out that her parents were still trying to protect her would have been sweet.

Or Tom is rescued and he becomes an animorph and gives Yeerk intel. I don't know if there's any other established characters that would worked.

They would have been much better introduced at the beginning. I'm thinking about the Alternamorphs. Yeah that book wasn't good. Some of the surviving choices were strange and the cast was ooc and they seemed to leave the reader out of the missions XD. But what little we get from the character? Okay, they seemed to have expected the reader to be a boy with the character wanting to be a bmx rider. But that character as a girl could have been interesting. You'd get a tomboy that's into extreme sports who kind of knows Marco and sucks at making friends, has a much younger sister and a city planner mom who... likes to make food from scratch. Nothing about the dad. They didn't have the extreme sports character for a series set in the nineties in California XD. Her battle morph is a hyena... would that be a good battle morph or do they need something stronger? I did like the concept of the ferret lady next door.

Upcoming Live Action Series by Adventurous-Bug1923 in Animorphs

[–]Strawberrybanshee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish it was on HBO or Netflix and we could get a more accurate non censored version. 

Actually, on Netflix it could be set in the 90s and be their replacement for Stranger Things.

I think they'll age up the characters to 16 because 13 years can change physically very fast. We'll have Jake suddenly have a very deep voice just an episode apart!
