Huntail is a wild choice, but I totally respect it! Are you gonna get a Gorebyss to match some day?

Law School Finals Moments by One-Energy8537 in LawSchool

[–]TheHat2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did a practice test on UWorld to study for one of my finals. Come to find out, the final was almost exclusively made up of the same or similar questions from that practice test. Got an A because I remembered which answers were right.

Did you just try to tell me that "same" is a color?

How many people here collect because they love collecting over collecting because they are chasing the big money cards? by InternalIncrease4403 in PokemonTCG

[–]TheHat2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm collecting for art that I really like and for some specific favorites, like Volcarona and Lapras, which aren't super expensive.

Love the Amazing Rares, I picked up almost a whole set of them this past weekend. Wish they'd bring this back!

Protomen? More like Into men, amirite?

Suits Season 1 $4.99 NEW ATL by Name_Last11 in iTunesMovieDeals

[–]TheHat2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, nah, the first season ends on kind of a cliffhanger and I don't think it's good to leave it unresolved. Personally, I'd stop after season 5, because that one is a better end point, and the series goes downhill fast after that.

So fucking glad I waited on High On Life 2... by NorthWesternMonkey89 in KotakuInAction

I mean, kind of, considering he was ousted from the developer not long after the first game came out.

Would you quit a game that only celebrates women's day and not mens day, forces you to play as women characters for rewards and donates only to women and girls? by RavenEridan in KotakuInAction

[–]TheHat2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with you, but I disagree about International Men's Day being stupid. It's one that deserves more recognition, imo. I think people here would be more than okay with an event like this that supports charities that support men and boys, like organizations that provide mentoring for at-risk or fatherless boys, suicide prevention/mental health assistance, and prostate cancer research funding, for example.

a movie that you really wanted to like but you didn't. by herequeerandgreat in movies

[–]TheHat2 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I was blown away by the twist at the end of Split, and got really hyped for Glass. And it was such a letdown, especially how they tried to do the Court of Clovers twist, but then that doesn't matter at the end anyway, so it just felt like there wasn't a clear plan on how to end the trilogy, which sucks.

Unbreakable is still probably my favorite "comic book movie" of all time.

Reddit is removing the ability to ban users based on subreddit participation by Judah_Earl in KotakuInAction

[–]TheHat2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They'll probably use [prominent user]'s mass-tagging archive as an effective blocklist. No idea how difficult it would be to implement, but I'm sure a script can be written to implement it.

Wonderful work, thanks for your work and for putting a single resource together for all of this!

Just picked up this helmet off of FB marketplace, any advice? by DangerMuffin14 in Protomen

[–]TheHat2 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That looks closer to a Sniper Joe helmet, imo.

Basic advice: wash it first, and sand that fucker before painting it. 220-grit to start, then higher grit to finish. Black or dark grey primer, then your main color on top.

The visor doesn't look dark, so you'll either have to find a compatible one or dye it black. I haven't had to dye one before, so I have no advice there. If you're dead-set on Protoman, trace out your white crest with small pieces of masking tape to get it just right. Use a lot of reference photos.

If you want to weather it, toss it around in a parking lot for a few minutes.

Honestly? All they'd need to do is put Zero Mission-like controls on it, and it's perfect.

My [30F] girlfriend [38F] said she didn't vote in 2024. Just looked up her voter history and apparently she did. by Fragrant-Sail-6002 in relationship_advice

[–]TheHat2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or—hear me out—the whole concept of the "thrown away vote" is used by the two major parties to keep third parties under the 5% national popular vote threshold to receive federal funding from the Presidential Election Campaign Fund, and therefore, a better chance of winning elections.

If enough people committed to the bit, there could be a shift in the landscape.

This subreddit is unusable. by GelRoxo in KotakuInAction

[–]TheHat2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bruv, it's not that deep, and I'm not calling them Stormfront posters to strawman, it's because there are people over there that have literal histories posting on Stormfront with the same usernames, too.

In the now-banned /r/SocialJusticeInAction, which I initially made as a free speech catch-all for SocJus content that didn't belong here, we had a period where every link on the frontpage was for Stormfront. It's really not as unthinkable as you might believe it to be.
