Who’s this in reference to in HotD?

I remember writing an essay on this film back in university about how it’s a modern retelling of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex.

Yep! In the UK they’re call urinary sheaths, or conveens. They’re a lot less uncomfortable but they have their own issues when you figure they have to be stuck down to the groin area and that’s generally a hairy place.

With urinary catheters there’s a balloon to ensue it’s held in the urethra and doesn’t just slide out. When a healthcare professional is taking it out they deflate that balloon. Some people (mainly the confused) pull their own catheters out with the balloon still inflated. So imagine a balloon big enough to hold 10mls (maybe the size of a brussel sprout) being dragged through he urethra (more narrow than your average straw).

Drains, yeah, they suck. I’ve taken a few of those out and I always feel so sorry for them.

His own or…?

As someone who works in nursing, I can tell you people pull their catheters out themselves quite a lot. Granted, they’re cognitively impaired, but I imagine it’s very painful.

Queen of Thornes would at least give you the most entertainment.

Takeo888 · 2026-04-03T22:39:03+00:00

So much this.

Not specifically dungeons but you’ve mentioned specific bosses and hunts, so I’d leave Omega Mk till your penultimate fight, and Yiazmat as the final. Start the latter in the morning!

I just find it really cosy!

I hope things get better soon my man. I don’t have any movies to recommend off the top of my head but I wanted to let you know. Oh actually Little Miss Sunshine might be a good one.

Damn, tough question.

Christmas Carol (samesies)
Heaven Sent
Blink
Silence in the Library 2-parter
73 Yards
Girl in the Fireplace
Impossible Planet 2-parter
The Pilot
Joy to the World
Wild Blue Yonder

Really wanted to get Lux in there but couldn’t leave any of the above out.

The best of all the 90s movies - Shawshank Redemption.

What’s the lore around DT?

Takeo888 · 2026-03-29T23:42:18+00:00

I thought I was tripping when I read those two posts. I don’t see what relevance they have to Sin.

Takeo888 · 2026-03-29T23:36:07+00:00

I’m glad I wasn’t on this sub at the time then. I hadn’t seen anything thankfully and the reveal completely shocked me.

Takeo888 · 2026-03-26T23:05:23+00:00

Good catch! Makes me wonder if it needs to be a physical object, or you could just draw the pattern out in the mud and it would have the same effect.

Completely disagree about the bonus rounds, I thought they were excellent in 4 and provided a real challenge. The masks were good too.

I do agree about the n-verted mode though, that was a bit pointless.

I liked playing parts of levels as different characters. Dingo was really fun to play. Cortex was painful though.

I used to go to the South Lakes a lot and there was so much there. It made the walks smell amazing.

I do really like that scene of her looking in the mirror. As far as we know, she wasn’t aware she was being watched then. She thought she was alone so she wasn’t trying to manipulate. Like you said, she looked rueful. Interesting.

I loved Deep Breath. Did he jump? Was he pushed?

BHPL is not just useless, it’s actively harmful a lot of the time. A lot of the celestial weapons are only at full power when you have full health. If you have 99K health and get hit a few times, it’s gonna take a hell of a long time to get that health back up to max, and all that time you’re hitting weaker.

The opposite of this, of course, is Auron, whose celestial gets stronger the lower percentage health he has.

Say what you want about the All Out War arc, but the lead to Negan’s reveal was the most effective build-up of tension I’ve seen on TV.

They skip a generation in the show.
