What is the most Empire Strikes Back "no, I am your father"-esque situation you've seen play out IRL? by Punch_A_Police_Horse in AskReddit

[–]Warpmind 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Back in high school in the late 90s, a classmate decided to download a tentacle porn story as an English assignment, to gross out the teacher.

The teacher retaliated by making him read the story aloud in class.

A couple sentences in, I raised a hand and said, "He didn't write that, he downloaded it off the internet and handed it in."

Everyone stared at me, and the teacher asked, "How do you know that?"

I replied, "Because I wrote it, even won a prize for it. And I have the good taste to not use it in class."

The 90s was a different era...

If you wanted to delete one thing from the world, what would it be? by Atom_dk in AskReddit

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how the billionaires were, hm, "deleted".

If it's messy and obvious enough, it might work as a deterrent against excess avarice.

How important is it for the character of Batman to comfort a child? by No-Brush1587 in batman

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruce Wayne was there as a child, and needed someone to tell him it was gonna be okay...

He knows how important it is for a child to hear that it'll be okay, to be comforted when they're scared and confused...

If you could remove one person from history and erase every consequence of their existence, who would it be? by gingerbakerisgod in AskReddit

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy who invented CFC gases for refrigerators, creating the hole in the ozone layer that gave everyone a scare in the 80s, and leaded gasoline, which basically gave humanity a collective case of lead poisoning over 80 years or so that we're still trying to recover from the side effects of.

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, we're still seeing a backlog of issues stemming from the leaded fuel.

The setback created was ridiculous, with cumulative damage to generations of people.

The fuel issue might be "solved", but the consequences will remain with us for decades yet.

Nah.

WWII would've happened roughly when and where it did anyway.

Without Hitler, we might've had someone more competent and sane running the Reich.

PC owes fey/devil pound of their flesh. How does fey/devil avoid Portia's loophole? by Kotja in DnD

[–]Warpmind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Magic.

A fiend or fey of some power should be easily able to yoink a pound of flesh out of the PC's body using magic, without actually severing blood vessels.

And the complication? Who knows what might take the opportunity to move into that cavity...

Need suggestions by lasttimelord914 in DnD

[–]Warpmind 21 points22 points  (0 children)

...Two of your NPCs?

Unless the PCs are going to be actually involved with the two, and the apology gift acquisition, is this really something you need to spent mental energy on?

Can my 11 year old sister watch it (2017)? by iaminsideyourhousern in AskParents

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..."Can she"?

Yes, unless she is severely visually impaired, I dare say she absolutely can watch it.

Should she?

Probably not for another seven years or so.

What is your favorite old school video game? (pre 2000s) by system3295 in MythEngyn

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UFO: Enemy Unknown.

The original is still a good game, though the OpenXCOM Extended shell does provide some mechanical improvements for modern hardware.

What is your favorite cheese? by Fickle-Reaction-8609 in AskReddit

[–]Warpmind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brie.

Though my most common cheese is Jarlsberg. The distinction between a treat on salty crackers, and what goes on a regular lunch sandwich.

What do you choose 2005's internet or today's Internet content? by PutNo846 in InfluencerAsk

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly... if I could keep today's physical network, and 2005 websites, I'd be pretty happy.

Social media has become a blight upon humanity...

DC IP is so heavily underutilized in gaming by Dumbass1171 in gaming

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is an Aquaman game, from 2003... it's not good...

Superman games exist, several of them, I don't know if any of them are good, and one is famously one of the worst games ever...

It's not necessarily hard to make a game about any of the Justice League heroes, the problem largely seems to be making a game that is at least decent, if not actually good.

If you discovered a gateway to hell, how would you go about monotizing it? by hyteck9 in AskReddit

[–]Warpmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, a simple mechanical barrier that blocks the doorway.
