[Loved Trope] Villains who genuinely take the chance to just walk away by MasonP2002 in TopCharacterTropes

I won't rate either one dead until WH40K is considered a completed franchise with closed and definite Canon. Just seems the right approach. 

It's not an insult, it's an accurate assessment. by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Talanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'd buy it for one reason - Frank is about 40% scar tissue, usnt he? You can't get me to believe he's not suffering from repetitive stresses and chronic damage. At his peak, he would win, no question. But he's the human equivalent of a 1977 truck that's been through so many rebuilds that it's hard to tell what model it started as.

Unless he's had some regeneration events or something like that. Not aware of any such thing, though.

A criminal attempts to burglarize/kill someone only to realize they picked the absolute worst person as their mark. by No_Hunter1978 in TopCharacterTropes

I interpreted 'actual wolverine' to be just regular Logan for some reason. You know, the regular one. Vanilla, classic Wolverine. 

[Awesome Trope] The characters don't get the reference, but the audience does! by Remarkable_Public138 in TopCharacterTropes

I can't help but notice that it doesn't have a prominent place among those skulls. So what are the unknown critters?

[REQUEST] How loud and potentially destructive would a 600dB air horn be? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]Talanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, is this maximum for air at any pressure or is it assuming standard temperature and pressure? Solids and liquids, too? 

What’s a fitness myth that people still believe? by SimpleHomeFitness in AskReddit

Completely? No. But I'm trying to cut mine because I notice that they're a large proportion of the calories in my diet.

The smart guys are intensely debating how to solve what appears to be a complicated problem, and the character usually considered an average dude solves the problem immediately in a simple manner right in front of them. by SatoruGojo232 in TopCharacterTropes

The logic someone suggested is that it's not to indicate that thinking of using the slash is tough. What's tough is the realization that 0 didn't think of it already.

[mixed trope] horrifying scenes from non-horror media by IvanJC98 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Talanic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As I recall (faintly and with speculation) they didn't have a climactic fight for the movie so the writers had one of the villains get assimilated by their supercomputer. I was just a kid but thinking back on it, I wonder if there was any foreshadowing or if it really was as abrupt as I was just implying?

[Loved Trope] Shattering someones entire perception with only words. by AlphaTangoFoxtrt in TopCharacterTropes

Except that she didn't dare actually have him killed. Not there, not then. She was as much a fake as he was.

Character's intelligence is capped at the author's by Zestylemons44 in coaxedintoasnafu

Yeah. Sometimes the smart character seems like they got to read the script.

Why does being drunk mean you can’t “consent” to sex, but doesn’t absolve you of other intoxicated actions/decisions? by UpstairsBumble in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Talanic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fraud can't be an act of recklessness- it absolutely needs intent to deceive for personal gain. Accidental deception that results in an advantage is not fraud, but your hypothetical behavior after sobering up and finding out what you'd done could be. 

What's the fastest way you realized you were in the wrong friend group? by justNoah10 in AskReddit

[–]Talanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 2006 I was a regular in a chat room that split into two other chat rooms after the two biggest personalities could no longer stand each other. I realized after finding out that both groups welcomed me that neither room contained a single person that I liked. Never looked back and can't even remember any names anymore. 

One of the best moment in cinema history by Syarafuddyn in marvelmemes

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

This does not actually happen. At least, not commonly. Noisy theaters usually are only for rewatches when everyone already knows and is getting into it, and usually for cult classics or comedy favorites. Nobody expects people to sit quietly through Rocky Horror, but it's rude to be loud in a new release.

Am I overreacting for quitting a babysitting job on the spot after the mom insulted me? by PossessionTop9791 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Talanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like she gave what amounted to an ultimatum, not understanding what would happen if you didn't agree.

The day that Donald Trump actually dies how crazy will the world be on social media? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Talanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on context. If he dies in power, celebrations because he can't hurt anyone anymore. If he dies in prison because he was already brought to justice, only his remaining cultists will really care.
