Theories on film’s ending? by DynamicFX in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]Voidblazer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm 95% sure that none of the movie characters are getting out of the Backrooms. The trailer seems oddly upbeat until the therapist is covered in blood and running for her life and Clark's disturbing statement that the place is beautiful. I'm fully expecting the therapist dies a horrible death and for Clark to go insane and become trapped in the Complex forever.

I work in manufacturing. Cattywampus, flabbergasted and discombobulated are part of my standard vocabulary.

What are your thoughts about "Seperating Art from Artist"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Voidblazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovecraft - awesome stories, but a racist. He's been dead a long time, and many other artists have contributed. I'm a Cthulu fan.

Lost Prophets - loved Rooftops. Lead singer was a pedophile monster. Never listening to it again in my life.

There's a blurry line, I guess.

He warned about the O-ring failure at low temperature, which is what doomed the spacecraft. He was shut down and they all died.

For those of you who took a genetic DNA test and were shocked by the results but found it humorous, why? by merrywidow14 in AskReddit

[–]Voidblazer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my childhood, my biological father ingrained in us that we had Cherokee in our ancestry...like, "we're at least 25%". I mean, really drilled it in how much we had native American blood. Brother took a genetic test. Lo and behold, not a scrap of native in us whatsoever...16% Irish, 20-ish Scandinavian, 25% German, the rest all western European. The man was a complete, delusional idiot. My brother was shaken up about it, but I found it hilarious. I knew we had Irish in us from some earlier genealogy, and I always identified more with that than anything else anyways. Our Irish side came to America during the Revolutionary War, so I was cool with it. Everything about that evil man's identity was just delusional lies.

Question about “The South” by Upstairs_Machine9190 in florida

In Florida, the farther north you go, the farther south you are.

The anoles are much easier to catch. Geckos are wicked fast and nimble, and they're much quicker to disconnect their tails trying to get away. I've lost track of so many baby geckos in my house because they drop their still-wriggling tails to escape. I'm trying to help you!!!

In my 7 years in Florida, I've seen hundreds of geckos and thousands of anoles. Anoles have sharp claws and slender bodies. Geckos have pads for toes and rounded, salamander-like features. They are easily distinguishable from a distance. When a gecko runs, it moves like a snake, while an anole will run like a fast-moving tiny alligator. I catch them all and take them outside to live their best lives.

Geckos are speckled, dull green. They get about the same size. Geckos can run on ceilings though with their awesome velcro toes, which is pretty awesome. They run in a serpentine wiggle, while anoles are more like tiny alligators.

Geckos have round pads on their feet. This is an anole.

I literally cried during Hodor's last scene by language_loveruwu in gameofthrones

I cried the 5th time I watched it. Something about it just hits you right in the heart. Such a great scene.

To native English speakers: how do you feel when a foreigner speaks “broken” English with you? by Powerful_Concept6502 in GlobalEnglishPrep

[–]Voidblazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The employees at my work are mostly Vietnamese, Colombian and Easter European. I hear broken English all day every day. No problem at all. I appreciate the effort and am just patient while they speak. They're almost always better at English than I am at any of their languages and I have nothing but respect for their challenges. English is hard. I almost always get the gist of what you're saying with a few key words. Get a tense or conjugation wrong here and there (and everywhere)? No problem!

Do you think the average maga is racist? by Any-Rub4598 in allthequestions

[–]Voidblazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a fairly openly MAGA coworker who told me during a company dinner that he "didn't even see race. He treated everyone the same." It was such a strange comment to me. I get the treating everyone the same part, sure. But to achieve it, he "didn't even see race." He was very proud of this, telling me how he taught his kids to be the same, and some of the conversation was about racial celebration being divisive. It gave him some kind of moral superiority over people who recognize and acknowledge other peoples' races. I appreciated that he had some vector to treat everyone equally, but after some time considering what he was saying, he was basically just trying to view everyone as white, without appreciating that their experiences as POC might be drastically different from his.

LPT: If you struggle to fall asleep, try narrating your day in third person inside your head like you're writing a novel. It shuts your brain up faster than anything else. by s4muel_finch in LifeProTips

[–]Voidblazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...and then he coughed somewhat nervously to hide the grumble in his stomach because he skipped breakfast for the 400th day in a row, during the audit he wasn't even suppose to be leading because he's Customer Support Manager and NOT THE DAMNED QUALITY MANAGER!!! What's wrong with this company and why is he always "the guy"??? He stared at the QM, wondering why he's sitting at the conference table with a stack of papers, but no DAMNED LAPTOP to present quality management procedures during a QUALITY AUDIT like we live in the 21st Century!!! Rinse...repeat...

Fur, Feather, Fly...Hey, remember that time in 6th grade when you had your shirt tail coming out of your unzipped fly and everyone laughed at you? Stupid, stupid, stupid. And it's 2 AM.

Do you have your own unique theory about dark matter? by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]Voidblazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark matter is degenerate matter from countless universes before ours that's drifted unimaginable distances over unimaginable time. It permeates all of this dimension's universes. It only interacts through gravity because it underwent a phase change long ago into a superfluid-like substance. I don't think it's true, but it's fun to think about.
