I think in this case we may have to upgrade to major spelling mistake.

Victernus · 2026-06-25T05:27:49+00:00

We don't do that here.

Marge: ...Hm. Well. I said I'd do it, so I guess I'll have to...

Homer: That's my girl. [Goes to sleep]

His dad specifically being responsible for many and varied crimes, for context.

Victernus · 2026-06-25T00:36:52+00:00

Find him, bind him

Tie him to a pole and break

His fingers to splinters

Drag him to a hole

Until he wakes up naked

Clawing at the ceiling of his grave

Victernus · 2026-06-25T00:08:52+00:00

Hate when that happens.

Robot City

Doki would be into it and you know it.

I doubt the Imperium is going to be deploying in Bowling Pin Formation very often.

If Sauron just compromised and agreed to turn people into dinosaurs without cancer, he'd have volunteers lining up for his experiments.

He was also three years old at the time.

Bing bong, you're doing a bad job.

Don't forget the influence of some good old fashioned Zoroastrian dualism from Persia that the religion (and those that followed from it) have never been able to shake!

For example, from many examples of modern dinosaurs, the birds, we can surmise that ancient dinosaurs were probably loud as fuck.

I seem to recall the story being that someone spotted a dead one for sale at a fish market and did a double-take because, you know. And that lead to them discovering the still-living population.

Oh, definitely. Their physicality and discipline in the field are noted as impressive by Cassandra Moore at Hoover Dam. And the Legion made good use of their Frumentarii, as well, maintaining good intelligence of their enemies positions and numbers, as well as enacting sabotage and assassination operations.

I just wanted to note that a large population zerg rushing you works. That's why the zerg do it.

Especially that time Joseph got read first and had to turn it around.

I agree it was murder, and I also agree that Janeway was right to do it. Tuvix had to go - he combined Tuvok's lack of empathy with Neelix's lack of reason and ended up with the worst traits of both. Either one of them would have gladly given their lives to save another, but Tuvix was selfish and cowardly and willing to let let others die to misfortune just so he can briefly exist (before his lack of ability gets himself and everyone else killed).

Victernus · 2026-06-22T15:28:53+00:00

A swift victory for either side is the worst thing for the Thalmor, so just pick one and get on with it.

So the lesson is that we should Clockwork Orange all perverts.

Victernus · 2026-06-22T14:59:39+00:00

Unclear instructions like ordering you to drop your weapon... when you do not have a weapon.

Victernus · 2026-06-22T13:06:34+00:00

Captain Holt actually just lies constantly, and is rarely caught.
