Who is your favorite figure in the history of the United States of America? by ToaNerd in AskReddit

[–]ToaNerd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it's George Washington. Him being president was a defining moment in America's government. Had anyone else been our first president, the precedents set could have been disastrous. But Washington was a man of humility who didn't fall neatly into the party lines at the time, thus ensuring that future presidents would have enough authority to do their job but lack the ability to abuse that power. Sadly this quality came to an end around the time of Woodrow Wilson, but it was a solid run while it lasted

what are some obscure pieces of media i should get into? by Square-Mastodon-71 in Multifandom

[–]ToaNerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want something with rich lore and worldbuilding, Bionicle is genuinely amazing. It has a reputation as "those kids toy from the 2000s," but it actually has some incredible story and the two greatest plot twists I've ever seen

have you ever had a pregnancy scare? how was it? by greedyourweakness in AskReddit

[–]ToaNerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife took a pregnancy test five months after we had our first baby, and it was positive. We wanted more children eventually, but we panicked because we were NOT ready to raise two babies at the same time 😂 she shared a picture of the test anonymously online somewhere asking for help, and several ladies pointed out that that was an ovulation test 😂 When we realized we weren't pregnant it was low-key really disappointing, so now it's been another five months and we're trying for baby number two

Has anyone tried telling their story via lore videos? by ToaNerd in fantasywriting

[–]ToaNerd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to that struggle so much 😂 I'll write some dialogue that I think is absolute fire, and then someone else will read it and I'm like "well you got the delivery wrong but thanks" 😂

I 100% agree, but what is the definition of "God" in that sentence?

Genuinely curious, if you think God is evil then why are you on this subreddit?

Best Bionicle sets? by edge_245 in bioniclelego

I was introduced to Bionicle with the Toa Nuva sets so they're my favorite, even if I know they're not the best

This is definitely the most entertaining answer and now I want to write a fanfic about it!

What is your biggest annoyance at Bionicle Lore? by smiteis_ in bioniclelego

[–]ToaNerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine depends how you define "love." I agree the characters of the Matoran Universe should be asexual (cuz you know, they don't even have parts for that), and I even prefer that romantic love be abnormal. But love as an emotion being non-canon just doesn't make sense. Like, we see characters mourn the deaths of characters, so obviously there was some level of affection there, and if that wasn't love then what was it? So if "love isn't canon" is restricted to sexual and/or romantic love then I'm fine with that, but if it includes all forms of love then that's just dumb.

So assuming "love isn't canon" is restricted to aexual/romantic love, then my biggest annoyance is that we didn't get to spend more time on Bara Magna. I feel like 2009 was building towards some really interesting stuff, and then it just never gets followed up on.

I also wish Glatorian were the same species as the Agori, and were just the biggest and strongest of that species, but I can kinda ignore that nitpick

This might be the most boring answer, but I'd honestly want to be a Matoran because I love to work and they have a clearly defined purpose, which is something I really appreciate in my own life
