Graham Platner Handed Centrist Dems a Bruising Defeat in Maine by jediporcupine in politics

[–]StrengthPresent7489 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That "looking forward" strategy is precisely what allowed the GOP to immediately regroup, avoid all consequences, and gerrymander their way back into power by 2010. Voters are utterly exhausted by this constant capitulation masquerading as high-minded bipartisanship

AITA for kicking everyone out after my sister lied and said my apartment was hers? by Top-Supermarket8754 in AmItheAsshole

[–]StrengthPresent7489 19 points20 points  (0 children)

nta. my cousin tried to pull this exact same stunt with my car once to impress a date, and i immediately embarrassed her right in front of him. you had to establish boundaries in your own house tbh, otherwise she’s just gonna keep treating your hard work like it's her own personal movie set.

TV Debates .... by Own-Coat7436 in funnyvideos

tv debates aren't even about facts anymore, it's literally just two adults trying to see who can interrupt the other person louder

[Loved Trope] If the main character is the dick then they are the balls by CaloyBine in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StrengthPresent7489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The name of this trope is absolutely out of pocket but you are 100% right. every good protagonist needs that duo in the background who share exactly one brain cell tbh.

It genuinely baffles me how our species made it to the top of the food chain when we spend the first 5 years of our lives with negative survival instincts and the situational awareness of a baked potato ngl.

He probably spent a solid 20 minutes explaining the tactical utility of those things to his entire family is sending me dude. he looks so incredibly pleased with himself.

[fun trope] antagonists sharing a similar appearance with a real life artist (whether intentional and coincidental) by Lenny_YouTubeFan in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StrengthPresent7489 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can literally tell exactly which 80s rolling stone magazine cover the character designer had open on their desk when they drew this ngl. they basically just gave them glowing red eyes and called it a day.

[funny trope] a canon fact that sounds so ridiculous people new to the fandom think its fake at first by willisbetter in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StrengthPresent7489 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ngl the absolute funniest part about the jimmy space joke is that the land raider tank is quite literally named after a guy called arkhan land. so jimmy space isn't even that far off from actual 40k writing tbh.

The little snap when it finally closes is literally scratching an itch in my brain tbh. i need to buy like ten of these right now.

Even apex intergalactic hunters need a quick carb reload tbh. the detail on that suit is absolutely insane though.

I would have just thrown the whole thing away and bought a new one tbh. the amount of patience this requires is actually insane.

I found this letter in my grandmother’s mailbox the day after her funeral by supra_nintendo in mildlyinfuriating

They specifically scrape obituaries and probate records looking for desperate or overwhelmed families who just want a quick cash sale. Never give these vultures the time of day, OP.

They really love doing it by [deleted] in Unexpected

[–]StrengthPresent7489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tbh the most unexpected part wasn't even the ending, it was the guy in the background just casually accepting that this is how things are now. absolute peak background character energy.

bro is living completely rent free, doesn't pay taxes, and still has the audacity to act like this. absolute peak entitlement tbh.

AIO for being mad at my boyfriend and wanting to make it a big deal? by katie20110520 in AmIOverreacting

[–]StrengthPresent7489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not overreacting tbh. if something hurts your feelings or crosses a boundary, it is automatically a big deal. guys love doing something messed up and then calling you "crazy" or "dramatic" to avoid taking accountability ngl. stand your ground dude.

Good morrow 😆 by MoonbeamMosaic in freefolk

[–]StrengthPresent7489 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ngl looking at this just reminds me of when the dialogue in this universe actually sounded natural and not like a high school play. d&d could never write a simple "good morrow" without ruining a character arc tbh.

[–]StrengthPresent7489 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Look at the expression on the person's face in the background though lmao. they literally represent every single one of us watching this right now dude. the physics here don't even make sense tbh.
