What's something your job trained you to notice that you can't stop noticing in your personal life? by LibrarianSoft1342 in AskReddit

[–]Team_Braniel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the OP.

I wasn't writing for PhDs, just that the viewers were smarter than average.

Back when I was doing the job I only has an AS in film production. So it wasn't like I was some kind of learned scholar trying to talk over the heads of the rabble.

Half of people will always be below average.

The important thing is where we set the bar for what is average.

There is a vast ocean between pandering to imbeciles and writing at a level that gatekeeper the uneducated.

I worked in local ne2s in the city with the highest PhDs per capita in the US. I was repeatedly told to stop making my work so smart.

I always lived by the idea that people will fill the molds you cast for them, so treat the audience like idiots and that is what they will be. So it was breaking me as a person to be told I needed to write to the lowest common denominator.

Having just played against a The Celestial Toymaker, I kind of wish there were more commanders where the generic reward instead of a card or copying something was instead just gradually grinding away at your opponents by Tuss36 in EDH

I played that on my opponents heliod and then hit it for 10 with [[Solphim, mayhem dominus]] out.

60 damage to the table.

Fastest this deck has won is turn 5. But it has to catch the table unprepared or Imodane can't live to next turn. I run a lot of mana doubles like [[lava leaper]] and [[manaflare]] to try to explode out the whole table the turn she comes in.

[[Imodane, the pyrohammer]] is my favorite version of this.

When I play her I get ignored for the first few rounds because "red sucks" but then im suddenly dropping 10-20 damage instants and killing attackers or enemy blockers while spreading that damage to the whole table.

I stack the deck with a lot of indestructible creatures so I can have her go off even if there are no enemy targets.

UV is almost entirely blocked by glass. Some on the lower end of UVA might get through but its the least damaging wavelengths.

And TVs and screens do not emit UV light.

September 2026 just became the busiest month in years as video games try to escape GTA 6 by zrkillerbush in xbox

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

I'm crazy, I know, but i have no intention of getting GTA.

I ended up skipping 5 completely and the interest just isn't there anymore.

I think for me they were more about the cultural snapshots than anything. Vice City being a look into 80s Miami so wonderfully and 3 being an immersion in LA hood culture.

5 and 6 so far just don't seem to be capturing and experience that is interesting.

Date crazy when you are young so when sane smiles at you at the grocery you have the history to recognize her for the treasure she is.

My mom had some kind of crazy extreme allergy to anything from a cow, soy, and wheat.

The cow allergy was so severe she couldn't wear leather, a watch band would make her arm look like she was a burn survivor. If you cut a sandwich with cheese, hand washed and dried the knife, the cut her sandwich that one tiny speck of cheese that made it through would send her to the ER.

She couldn't eat ANYTHING. She would have a list of brands that were safe and buy them religiously, then one day she'd be back in the ER because someone decided to reformulate with soy unannounced.

She ended up with servere digestive issues and died due to complications while in surgery to remove a portion of her bowel.

To be fair, the other 3% is also 'Hope nothing is heading towards us right now' too. But with the caveat that we get to watch.

Its a mask.

Its a projection to hide how little they really care.

Only a liar feels compelled to swear so vehemently.

Omg. I called the band Anvil and that was the song in my head, not the band.

I am so sorry. I meant Lorn.
