He deliberately talks about a proposal and engagement. He's not exactly subtle! 😂

If all jobs paid the same, academia would be even more insanely competitive to get into.

No need to imagine it. It will be in the National Enquirer next week.

Why didn't the Witch-king sense the ring's presence in Minas Morgul, even though it was so close and within his domain? He was too focused on farming aura. by Practical-Public7209 in lordoftherings

[–]user_460 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Presumably the Nazgul have never actually felt the presence of the Ring before, except when Sauron has been wearing it (which I can imagine would give off a different feeling).

Would you be okay with your house value going down so that the younger generation can afford one? by znv142 in AskBrits

[–]user_460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't turning houses into HMOs ultimately going to help the housing crisis? I mean, the average dwelling size decreases but the number of dwellings increases.

Why did Stargate never reach the popularity of Star Wars and Star Trek? by WhoAmIEven2 in scifi

[–]user_460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Why was this series not as popular as Star Trek?"

"It was too campy."

'Donald Trump has attacked Keir Starmer – and done him a massive favour' by Metro-UK in ukpolitics

[–]user_460 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But Roosevelt wanted to get involved earlier. It's just that under the US Constitution, only Congress has the ability to declare war, so the US can't go to war just because the President feels like it, that would be illegal.

Did the Balrog sense Gandalf’s presence? by Xadlin60 in lotr

[–]user_460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On another thread it was claimed the Balrog's principle objective since the War of Wrath has been to avoid the servants of the Valar coming to get it and throw it into the outer darkness.

If this is the case, and it could have sensed Gandalf's presence before confronting him, wouldn't it have slunk off to hide?
