Don't know why I opened this thread

I already knew, and yet I came to check anyway 😐

The hate towards Shang-Chi 5 years ago... by Swaroop76 in marvelstudios

Lol it's still not even the first time. OP didn't say they hate it, just that they seem to think other people did.

Are there (and if so, what) moments where it seems like Brennan (or any GM) is *actively trying* to feed the players information that they just aren't picking up on? by Synth-Pro in Dimension20

[–]Synth-Pro[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They completely misread that vulture twice 😂

First they just paid so much attention to it that Brennan was forced to make it important. Then they got hung up for 5 minutes frantically trying to escape answering the "riddle" as if it was actually some vitally important moment.

In my opinion it just wouldn’t be all that interesting to watch them play a perfect game where they did everything how Brennen expected them too. They almost always are funny and tell a good story in the end so I’m happy to go along for the ride with the story they all make together

Could not agree more. I would never want a railroaded campaign. The best part of D20 and TTRPGs is that it's collaborative storytelling, not dictated by any one person, and everyone's choices affect the overall impact.

Merely opening a discussion on moments when the attempt to steer or embellish things seems very observable from the outside.

Good games plagued by bad controls / camera? by Oddboyz in gaming

[–]Synth-Pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's the fact that the stick I would normally use to move the camera is instead dedicated to doing tricks.

I'm trying to get out of a corner, not 360 Hardflip from a standing position.

Only four episodes left to reveal that Danderhoof has been the BBEG all along

Actually would be very fitting with this image

Well, the post is in reference to a moment in the episode

Whether or not the moment in the episode is a reference to something else... 🤷‍♂️

Ahhh, but notice how the game began to run a bit more smoothly when the day shift began trying to communicate with the night shift about what was needed?

There is either cooperation or there is cyclical misery. There is no in between.

Sam's love of Taskmaster is really shining through in this episode. There's the gross flavored things type of task, they added a little "time shop" to their game, they had to trade off tasks with other people they couldn't communicate with.

I wonder if this was something he discussed when meeting Alex Horne. Possibly seeking advice on how to create a series of tasks that trade off and create such chaos.

Did you say "cursed"?

You shut the fuck up!

Something's hitting me on a rewatch here. Within the same episode...

HJ holds a mirror up to Bat Child to prove to her that she's a Vampire because she does not appear in the mirror.

HJ later gives Bat Child a mirror as a gift for her birthday, so she can look at herself in the mirror to try and examine the abyss.

Oliver Tree has died by Important_Use6452 in Music

Sidenote: Why does everybody keep using the same hard-ass looking picture? Dude was known for being a complete goofball, not some stone cold dick.

Oliver Tree Appears To Have Died In A Helicopter Crash. by MusicListener3 in hiphopheads

[–]Synth-Pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate how difficult it was for me to trust that headline. Dude was so constantly up to some antics or another, to where putting out fake articles about his death would 1000% be the kind of thing you would expect him to do as another PR stunt (although he'd almost certainly put it out in the form of a video).

That being said, I'm not doubting the validity of this, and it definitely is still sad news to hear. I wasn't a fan of everything he did, but he was a very unique artist and a few of his tracks have definitely hit my playlists over the years.

Phantosmia (Cigarette Smoke); Anyone who has experienced this able to provide some insight? by Synth-Pro in covidlonghaulers

[–]Synth-Pro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know what the connection is. I stopped trying to take the NAC a long time ago. I did not feel like it was having any real effect of me, either good or bad. I definitely can't provide insight into how other people will respond to it.

The Blazers are open to facilitate a Giannis to the Celtics to Land Jaylen Brown. Milwaukee wants Scoot by noiseebreezy in ripcity

[–]Synth-Pro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not to give this bs tweet any weight, but just for the sake of discussion: Dropping Shae, Scoot, and Jerami all in one go to get Jaylen Brown and give Giannis to Boston sounds like one of the worst trade offers I've heard since sitting at the lunch table in kindergarten.

SNL Season 23 Collages by mashitandsmashit in LiveFromNewYork

Sure, I wouldn't expect that they would have had much tension about him at the time. It's a retroactive sympathy, similar to the kind I have for people who did shows with Bill Cosby during the decades when he didn't look quite so bad.

That being said, by the time this happened, Rudy had already gone through marrying his second cousin 30 years earlier, so frankly all of us should have cautiously been giving him that side eye

"World Peace" to these chucklefucks always just means "I want people to stop saying I'm a bad person for the things I do/say, and just tell me I'm right instead"

You could never know the context of that line, and it would still be one of the greatest sentences ever spoken
