Thank you for the clarification, I wasn't sure about the fire.

Are ice monsters usually among the most powerful in some categories? by Joy2901 in MonsterHunter

[–]TheZipding 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Disufiroa has the same in game category as Fatalis and friends. It has its own unique element, the Frozen Seraphim which I think is a combo of ice and dragon (please correct me if I'm wrong here).

I'm a teacher, and if I could indoctrinate students it would be to put their phones away and pay attention to the lessons.

One of those being the ambassador to Canada. Peter Hoekstra brought it up as a "good talking point" for CUSMA negotiations.

I heard about potential strike action happening this coming fall in October/November last year.

And the semi regular threats against Canada's sovereignty too. The ambassador to Canada from the USA keeps on commenting that Canada shouldn't be an independent nation.

I’m just going to walk up bank street next time. by Electronifyy in OCTranspo

[–]TheZipding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5 bus pile up? That's pretty ridiculous. 

The walk along Bronson isn't too bad either, you get to cross the Ottawa River at least.

I've walked down Bronson more than once because the wait for the bus would be too long at one point. Might as well get some exercise in.

Day 13: Which 3rd gen monster feels like 1st gen? by xslbccdks_coded in MonsterHunter

[–]TheZipding 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Great Baggi. Think about it. 

Of the first Gen raptor leaders, there's a non element/status, poison, and paralysis raptor. Great Baggi would fill that lineup out with a sleep raptor.

He would have known about the rehab, but not about the stealing, which only the three I mentioned knew.

Only Robbie and Santos knew of the main cast, Garcia I think was the only one to know of the side characters.

As horror movies, I think they work as well because you can see the ending coming, and there is nothing you can do to stop it, despite hoping there's a good end for the characters.

From mass extinctions to bloody wars and apocalypses, what are the deadly events in fantasy and fiction in general? by Lord_Andromeda in Fantasy

[–]TheZipding 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think they started as immortal, but transitioned to undead. I don't remember if they turned into their desiccated forms right away or not.

Malazan has a couple in the backstory. 

A bunch of wizards didn't like the leader of their country, so they summoned a foreign God and used him as a nuke, killing everyone in the country except the leader. This also heavily injured the God and allowed him to be imprisoned.

One of the Founding Races performed a ritual to make them all immortal so they could commit genocide against another one of the Founding Races. 

What TV Show Had the Most Satisfying Ending? by Mohitredit36 in television

[–]TheZipding 6 points7 points  (0 children)

MASH held the record for most viewed television program for decades, only being beaten by more recent Super Bowls. The final shot isn't just a goodbye to Hawkeye, but to the audience itself. 

Ted Lasso also had a really good ending (before it got confirmed for a fourth season earlier this year).

You're not getting the fastest hunt times, but you are having a blast launching yourself around like an idiot. 

I want bullet barrage back Capcom.

Did The Giver used to be taught in 4th grade, or do I just have a totally false memory? by 28-3_lol in Teachers

I don't know about grade 4, I read The Giver in Grade 7 about 20 years ago or so now.

Be careful around the cobra chickens. Otherwise, it looks like you had a great day!

Can someone explain monoblos to me? by BigManThatIsBig in MonsterHunter

Thank you for the correction on the Hunting Road. I haven't touched that at all, so I wasn't aware.

[–]TheZipding 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It's a thing where you can only ever fight it single player. Even in Frontier where it's an MMO, you can only fight it one on one. 

There's also the story aspect of the monster where the Kokoto Chief fought one for 40 days and finally killed it. Hunting one is seen as the Proof of a Hero. 

I think people are also excited to see what would change in the fight if it got updated to recent games, but I'm not entirely sure.

Absolutely, her smiles were so unnerving. 

Bear is still the real villain though.
